Arknights Welcome to Terra Continent

Chapter 376 Are you sweating profusely, Doctor?



"That's all the information I know. As you can see the current situation, I'll leave it to you to judge."

Herage looked at the doctor and said, after all, the final decision was made by the doctor.

"If the city government is also involved in the intelligence processing of the volcano, then we may not necessarily be involved in this matter."

Herage put forward his opinion, then looked at Ceylon and said.

"Miss Ceylon, you should see the facts clearly and calm down before making a judgment."

"Hug, I'm sorry, my mind is a little confused right now."

Ceylon hurriedly ran out of the room.

"Old man, what you said is a bit too straightforward. Look at this little girl."

Beichen joked.

"If her goal is to take over his father's city, it is certainly necessary to understand this early on, and it will not hurt her even if she does not plan to enter politics in the future."

Herage explained seriously.

"But Doctor, you should do something now. She needs someone who can understand her now."

Both of them looked at the doctor, and Beichen also urged: "What are you waiting for? The old man and I are both stupid. Isn't comforting girls what you are best at?"

"Nonsense, who is good at comforting girls, you slander me!... Hey, hey, don't push me, can't I just go?"

The doctor was pushed out of the room by Beichen, and then the door closed with a bang.

"In the end, it was up to me to solve it."

The doctor sighed and walked in the direction Ceylon left.

"Doctor...can you go shopping with me?"

Ceylon, who was leaning against the door frame, lowered her head. Her hair covered her face, making it difficult to see her expression clearly. If the doctor hadn't already walked to her side, she probably wouldn't have noticed him. .

"I'm a little worried about you."

The doctor opened the door and the two walked back onto the street.

There are people sneaking around in the distance with binoculars to peek... No, it should be called reconnaissance. This is all to ensure the doctor's safety!

At least that's what Beichen thinks.

Noisy sounds were heard on the beach in the distance. Ceylon stopped, stretched out a hand to cover the dazzling sunshine, and looked at the beach and the lively crowd on it.

"Doctor, you know, when I was a child, there were not so many people on this beach. I liked to build sand castles there by myself. And now, under the governance of my father, this city has become a tourist attraction every year. It’s getting better.”

The doctor just listened silently, knowing clearly that what Ceylon needed at this time was a listener.

"My father and I, how should I say, don't talk much. Growing up, he never walked and chatted together on the beach like you and I do."

Ceylan said with a wry smile: "I've been wondering if the city and making money are more important to him than talking to me. I've been wondering if it's because my mother died when I was born. He doesn't like me."

Ceylon couldn't help but see the back of that man... Why was it the back?

Ah, I can’t even remember the voice clearly. What he and his subordinates said in one day was worth what I said in a month combined.

"Ever since I can remember, he has often been away from home. He is more like a stranger living in the same house than a father and daughter. It is precisely because of this that I attach so much importance to Hei and her being by my side. , to me, it is the most natural part of my life.”

Hei's figure in his memory is much more present than his father's presence.

"Now, Doctor, do you know why when I was at university in Victoria, my main research interests were natural disasters and ore diseases?"

Before the doctor could speak, Ceylon continued.

"I want to study the Origin Stone because she is an infected person and I want to cure her."

Memories emerged, and Ceylon remembered that peaceful afternoon. Ceylon wanted to give Hei a big hug, but Hei avoided it after a brief daze.

"Hei? Let me hug you~"

Ceylan was coquettish and wanted to rush into Hei's arms again.

"Miss...forgive me for not doing this."

Hei resisted the urge to take Ceylon into his arms and refused.

"why?"

Ceylon asked a little aggrievedly.

"Because I have ore disease, miss. It's not good for your health to be close to me. You just need to call me when you need it."

If I had known that mineral sickness was not so terrible at all, I should have hugged him right then.

"What disease is that? Does it hurt?"

"It won't hurt, but it will kill you. This disease cannot be cured, miss, and..."

Ceylon directly interrupted Hei's words and said angrily: "Hmph, just wait! One day, I will defeat it and snatch Hei back from it!"

It's really...childish.

"This is the driving force that has always supported me. For this dream, I went to Victoria to study the obscure Origin Stone. I couldn't understand it at first. There was a time when I wanted to give up, but in the end I persisted. Come down."

"What happens now...Doctor, can it be said that everything I have and the goals I pursue are false?"

Ceylon stretched out her hand, and the sunlight slipped through her fingers. She clenched her fists, but couldn't grasp anything.

"Doctor, do you think I should give up?"

Ceylon lowered her raised hand and tried her best to suppress her emotions, even though tears were already welling up in her eyes.

"It's difficult for me to give you an answer to this matter...but what I know is that you should not deny everything you have done because of this. I am a scholar who studies oriopathy like you, so I know what kind of path this is.”

"Can we defeat ore disease? Can we save ore patients? Will there be an end to this disaster? These questions have come to my mind more than once."

"I'm not sure, I can't see the end, I don't know the answers, of course I can give up."

"But I don't want to do that."

"This land may be terrible, but everything you do is not in vain. Believe in your own choices."

After hearing the doctor's answer, Ceylon breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huh, you're right, doctor. As expected of a senior, I still have a lot to learn in this area."

What Ceylon didn't know was that the doctor was already sweating profusely. If Ceylan hadn't mentioned mineral sickness later, he wouldn't have known how to answer.

How do I know how to resolve your family problems?
