It was Marge, the little girl. When she saw the pale girl lying on the carriage on the verge of death, she immediately ordered, "Bring her to Qinna!"
Thus, a rabbit-human maid carried Marge and rushed to the nearby hospital. Everyone followed behind as if their lives depended on it.
The hospital was a place that preserved the landscape of the forest. There was a road leading into the dense forest, and there was a unique white building there. It was very quiet.
Demons rarely fell ill. Most of the people who came here were sick children and their parents, as well as injured soldiers and hunters. Most of the wounded from the last battle had recovered enough to be discharged, so there were not many people here.
"Doctor Qinna!"
The three ran to the main consultation room and found Qinna in a white coat and a mask. When she saw the people in a hurry, she felt that something was wrong.
"Wait a moment, I'll take her temperature."
She said to the patient, then stood up and walked towards the people who were running in a hurry.
"Running is not allowed in the hospital. What's wrong?"
"Doctor! Doctor! Save her! Save Ichy, she's very sick! "
Raas said breathlessly. Myr, who lacked exercise, only appeared behind him after ten seconds. She panted a few times and said, "Quick, she might be seriously ill."
Qinna hurried to the girl's side. She silently chanted an incantation and cast a spell. She picked up a piece of paper and stuck it on Marge's forehead.
Soon, the paper turned dark red, like blood clots.
"This is bad! It's very serious. Take her to the emergency room! "
She had everyone put the girl on a trolley and push her to a room.
"Why did you only bring her here now!"
Qinna suddenly shouted on the way. Behind her, Raas clenched his teeth and showed a sorrowful expression.
"Stop! Wait outside, don't come in. "
Qinna stopped them outside and closed the door. The cold door made Raas feel incomparably afraid and suffocated. Abby and Myr stood to the side. Although they were also worried about the girl, it was just pity for a stranger.
However, Lars was different. For him, Marge and Yi Qi were his family. If Marge and Yi Qi were to die, he would be alone in this world without anyone to rely on.
"Don't worry. Although Kina is very young, her medical skills are better than many old doctors. Moreover, the facilities here are complete. It will be fine."
Mel tried to persuade him.
Raas didn't dare to look at her face or her eyes. Perhaps it was because he didn't want others to see his teary eyes. He looked at the floor and nodded.
Myr was a little worried about this young man, but she had a lot of important things to do right now, so she didn't have time to stay here with this young man.
At this moment, Ah Bi stepped forward and patted his head, saying, "You're a man now. Take good care of her. We still have work to do, so we'll leave first."
After saying that, Abby pulled Myr and prepared to leave. You stay and accompany him.
The rabbit-human maid nodded, but Abby said that there was no need. He left, and he could do it alone.
The servant took a look and left as well.
Only Lars was left outside the iron door …
His heart was restless. Every second of waiting was torture. It was as if ants were crawling all over his body. He didn't know whether to sit or stand, so he kept pacing outside.
There was no sound coming from inside, which made him very uneasy. He kept pacing until his legs were sore and he sat down.
Time passed by minute by minute, and Lars still felt that every second was so long.
When a person was extremely anxious, they wouldn't feel hungry or thirsty. However, this didn't mean that the body didn't need to eat and drink. He just sat there without eating or drinking.
After an unknown amount of time, Lars felt that it was longer than his entire life. He sat quietly at the door, not moving at all. Occasionally, some demons, rabbit-humans, or mice would pass by, but Lars didn't feel afraid at all. He was only thinking about Marge's matter.
Footsteps came from the corridor, getting closer and closer. Only the sound of paper could be heard.
"Hey, eat something."
Abby's voice came. It was already night. The magic lights in the corridor were on, so Lars thought it was daytime.
Lars looked up. It was hard to imagine that a young man could become so old in such a short time. His eyes made Abby frown.
"I'm not hungry."
He whispered, his voice a little hoarse.
"Eat when I tell you to. If you leave any behind, I'll whip you!"
Abby stuffed food on him. It was some bread and a carton of porridge. It was still a little warm.
Lars didn't move. He just looked at them. Myr told Abby that humans had a strange way of thinking, which was self-abuse. She said that the young man would definitely blame himself because he couldn't do anything about the girl in the emergency room. Also, Kina's words would definitely make him blame himself and even torture himself.
For example, he wouldn't eat or drink. He might even scratch himself to make his body feel pain.
Abby was worried, so he came to take a look. Sure enough, this human young man was too stupid!
The Ke Rabbit tribe didn't have this mentality. They would be sad if their loved ones died, but they wouldn't skip meals because of this. Although they were sad, they still had to eat.
Abby sat beside the young man and watched him eat the food he bought. The young man couldn't help but eat in big mouthfuls. However, he couldn't taste anything.
After an unknown amount of time and Abby didn't know how many times he yawned, the iron door finally opened.
A tired Kina walked out. The young man stood up excitedly.
"We're out of danger for now."
Hearing this, Lars breathed a sigh of relief.
"However, I can only say with regret that her illness can't be cured. It's a congenital illness. There's no way to cure it."
Kina said.
This sentence was a heavy blow to Lars. His face was lifeless. He looked at Abby absentmindedly and said, "Didn't you say … you can cure her illness …"
With that, the young man suddenly fell to the ground.
Abby stood there and watched Kina rush to the young man. He was indifferent.
At that moment, his heart was hurt by the words of a human young man …
Early morning.
Bright sunlight shone through the white curtains. Lars woke up. He was lying on a hospital bed with gauze wrapped around his body.
"Yo, you're awake. I thought you were dead."
Abby's voice was heard. Lars turned his head and saw the Rabbit sister appear beside him. She pulled open the curtains and looked outside.
"The weather's pretty good today."
She said.
Lars was lying on the bed. He looked at the ceiling in a daze.
"She's awake. Do you want to see her?"
Abby looked at the young man. However, Lars turned his back to her and didn't say a word.
Looking at his back, Abby remembered Myr's words. The young man might take things too hard.
Tsk! What does this have to do with me? Why should I be so worried about a little human?
Abby was a little angry. She turned around and was about to leave. However, after taking a few steps, she stopped. Her drooping ears betrayed her heart. She turned around and gave the young man one last hope.
"I know you don't want to believe me, but I still have to tell you. The owner of this land, that lord, might be able to cure him. If even he can't do it, then no one in the world can."
The young man sat up abruptly. However, Abby had already left.
That lord?
The owner of this land? Was it not the city lord named Myr?
He was a little confused. He was only half-convinced.
After lying down for a while, he suddenly heard footsteps.
"Brother Lars!"
Hearing this, Lars looked at the door in shock. It was Machi in a white dress! Her face was thin, but she was smiling happily.
"Why are you here?"
"Hehe, I'm much better."
Machi skipped to Lars' bed. She jumped with her back against the bed and sat on it.
"Brother Lars, how's your injury?"
"Me? I'm fine. "
"Then why are you still lying on the bed?"
Lars didn't know why he didn't answer this question. He took a deep breath and didn't say anything.
"Oh, right." At this time, Machi took out a few silver coins from her pocket and placed them in Lars' hand. There were only three coins in total, but Lars felt that they were very heavy.
"A big sister bunny gave me some money and told us to go to the city to play. Brother Lars, have you eaten breakfast?"
Lars was stunned. It was that rabbit person called Abby! She actually!
Why?
Why did she care so much about them as humans?
"No."
"Then let's go! Let's go to the city for breakfast! That big sister bunny said that there's a lot of good food in the city! "
The girl pulled the young man's hand and said. She was very energetic and even made Lars think that she was fine.
"Wait, you just happened to …"
"Let's go!"
Machi was full of energy and pulled Lars out of the ward. The forest outside the hospital was filled with the chirping of birds. The two liked the forest, so they played here for a while. Then they followed the road to the main road.
There were many demons coming and going. Other than the rabbit people, Machi was afraid of the mice, centaurs, and nagas. Therefore, she held Lars' hand and walked on the road. Lars was also nervous, but fortunately, there were many humans on the road, which lessened their mental burden a little.
The road was very wide and comfortable to walk on. Soon, they smelled a fragrance. It smelled like barbecued meat, roasted corn, and other snacks.
Lars couldn't help but swallow when he smelled this fragrance.
Machi held Lars' hand. She didn't say anything, but her eyes kept glancing at that place and then back at Lars.
She wasn't the kind of person who kept acting coquettishly until the other party compromised. Instead, she would be quiet and use her eyes or expression to hint wildly.
"Let's go, let's go eat something."
"Yay!!"
Machi jumped up happily.
It was a small food stall with a red and white striped awning on top. The boss was a squinting uncle wearing an apron full of oil stains. He didn't order food and just quietly looked at the people coming and going.
At this moment, two young humans came to his stall. He couldn't remember if there were two young men and women of such a young age among the survivors. He should have seen more than a hundred people, but he felt that these two people were unfamiliar.
"Wow! There's so much good food! "
Machi opened her eyes wide and looked at the red and green food.
In the boiling square iron pot, there were tempting meat skewers. They looked like mutton skewers, grilled fish skewers, and pancakes with vegetables, eggs, and meat. They sizzled on the flat iron pot. Even Lars couldn't help but swallow a few times.
He held the unfamiliar currency in his hand and didn't seem to be confident.
"Boss! Boss, how much are these skewers? "
"Two star coins."
Star coins?
Lars had never heard of such a currency. He was a little nervous and secretly looked at the three silver coins in his hand. He didn't know how much money he had and whether he could afford these skewers.
"I want to buy this much."
He took out one of the silver coins. The boss glanced at it and was stunned.
"One hundred star coins? Are you sure you want to buy fifty? "
Hearing this, Lars realized that the coin in his hand was one hundred star coins.
"No, no, I made a mistake. Three skewers are enough. Machi, what else do you want to eat?"
Lars quickly turned to look at Machi.
"Wait, little brother, you? You don't know about star coins? You don't look familiar. What's your number? "
The boss suddenly asked.
Lars felt that something was wrong. He pulled Machi back two steps.
"No, we're from Stone."
Marge suddenly asked in confusion. Raas, who didn't want to expose his identity, quickly covered her mouth. Many places rejected outsiders, especially Stone. Although there were a lot of outsiders in Stone, the local residents rejected them very much.
As an original resident, Lars knew this very well.
"Ah! Stone! It's actually Stone. So we're near Stone! Come, come, come! Come, come! Come, tell us about the outside world. "
The boss suddenly said enthusiastically, which made Lars a little confused.
In the end, the boss treated them to a lot of food and filled the table. When the surrounding stall owners heard that people from outside the city had come, they all came over to watch the show. Of course, they didn't come empty-handed. They brought one or two types of food.
So Machi and Lars sat in front of a table of dishes.
The stall owners sat on the side and asked many questions, such as what year it was, what happened to the Ross Empire, who was the king of the Ross Empire, and so on.
Lars couldn't answer that much. He only told them what he knew.
When they heard about the destruction of the Ross Empire, they all shook their heads and sighed. They all looked pitiful. But soon, they returned to their state of constantly asking questions as if nothing had happened.
Just answering the questions made Raas's mouth dry up. They were very curious, and they talked with fervor and assurance, talking non-stop.
In this atmosphere, Lars gradually relaxed his tense heart and discussed with the group of uncles.
"By the way, uncles, why are you living with the demons?"
Finally, Machi asked the question that Lars had always wanted to ask but didn't dare.
As soon as she said this, the stall owners fell silent. During the discussion, Lars also understood that they were deliberately avoiding some things, such as their origins.
They lowered their heads and smiled silently until the stall owner said, "Because life has to go on."
When he said this, everyone nodded in agreement. They knew that their actions were equivalent to betraying humanity.
"We thought we hated the demons, but in the end, we realized that what we hate is war. After living for a while, we also realized that the demons are the same as us. They don't like war …"
The stall owner's words were deeply etched in Lars' heart.
