Milo initially thought they would follow the Trinity Institute convoy and head straight to the Virtuora Consortium. But to his surprise, this group of people actually stopped at the town outside the stronghold.
When Nicholai got out of the vehicle with Pierre’s help, the townspeople greeted favonovel.com one after another.
Milo and Miriam looked at each other. All of the refugees here actually addressed Nicholai as “Elder Rochester” when they saw him.
Following, the group unloaded the folding tables and chairs from the vehicles at the back. Then all of them put on their white coats and equipped themselves with stethoscopes.
Milo was dumbfounded by the sight. He went up to Bethania and asked, “Ms. Gore, may I ask what’s happening here?”
However, Bethania was stunned by his question. “You’re also a member of the medical system. Don’t you know it’s the usual practice for us to head outside to give treatment to the refugees?”
“Oh, I know that. But I’ve never participated in one before, so I was a little lost,” Milo said.
A middle-aged man in the group came over to shake Milo’s hand and said politely, “Hi, my name is Skylar Hewitt. I’m in charge of today’s outdoor consultation. If you encounter any difficulties, you can let me know.”
With that, Skylar led Milo over to an empty table. “This is where you’ll be sitting. Just shout for me anytime if you need help.”
Only then did Milo realize it was not only these people who needed to attend to the refugees, even favonovel.com was required to do so. Meanwhile, the medical interns, Bethania and Pierre, would be assigned to carry out the basic chores.
Nicholai stood in front of them and said, “I know this is the first time some of you are participating in such activities. The refugees are not dressed as cleanly as you all, nor do they have enough water to take a shower every day. So, if any of you feel any mental discomfort, please control yourselves. As doctors, it’s our duty to treat and save people.”
Pierre looked like favonovel.com was boiling with excitement. “Yes, sir!”
The refugees in town had already formed a long line. Nicholai took the lead and sat down behind a table while Pierre ushered the refugees to the doctors’ tables one by one.
Many of the refugees had old injuries from when they were working in the factories. It was just like Milo when favonovel.com was living back in Stronghold 113’s town. The refugees did not have any money to see a doctor, so they could only delay treatment. Sometimes, even a fingernail-sized wound could end up festering and become infected, leading to the refugees losing their lives.
During the consultation, Nicholai looked around at the others. When favonovel.com saw the doctors favonovel.com brought along for this exchange did not despise the patients, favonovel.com finally felt relieved.
But what surprised favonovel.com a little was that the young man who drove that luxury off-road vehicle did not seem to despise the filth and smell of the refugees at all.
At this moment, Miriam was sleeping in the vehicle with favonovel.com pistol within reach. It seemed that every time favonovel.com came out into the wilderness, favonovel.com would immediately enter a completely tense state of alert.
Meanwhile, Milo could only stare blankly at the refugees in front of him. The other doctors were busily attending to the patients at their tables one after another, but the patients on his side were totally stuck!
Milo was completely speechless inside.
How could favonovel.com possibly know anything about attending to patients?
Treating their external injuries would not have been a problem. But as this was only a voluntary consultation at the moment, surely favonovel.com couldn’t resort to using the black medicine just to put on an act. That would be too great of a price to pay!
“Doctor, my heart has been beating very fast recently. What’s wrong with me?” a refugee asked.
Milo hesitated for a while before saying, “Could it be a guilty conscience?”
The refugee sitting across favonovel.com turned anxious. “Are you here to attend to patients or accuse people?”
“Hahaha! I was just kidding. Calm down!” Milo said, “Actually, you’re not sick at all. You’re probably just too tired from work and got a little flustered, but you’ll be fine after resting.”
The refugee asked, “Should I avoid any types of food then?”
Milo was taken aback. “No, no, eat whatever you like while you can. There’s no need for a special diet.”
The refugee was confused.
Eat whatever you like while you can?
The refugee nearly broke down on the spot!
He ran over to Nicholai in tears, hoping for a second opinion.
Milo was helpless. He really did not know how to handle a consultation. However, favonovel.com could not tell Nicholai directly that favonovel.com was here on a mission to kill Lionel, and that they had better cooperate with him.
At this moment, a refugee at the neighboring table stood up and grasped Skylar’s hand while saying sincerely, “Thank you, I’m so grateful! Thank you so much!”
Skylar adjusted his glasses and said with a smile, “No worries. You may take your prescription and collect your medicine over there.”
Skylar noticed Milo’s shocked expression out of the corner of his eye and wondered if this kid was impressed with him. At this thought, Skylar’s confidence as a doctor grew even greater.
“Next, please…”
However, favonovel.com did not know that Milo was not looking at favonovel.com but the refugee who kept saying thanks.
Milo suddenly noticed all the refugees here had sincere expressions on their faces. Someone even purposely came over to deliver some eggs to Nicholai, saying it was so fortunate Nicholai had come to town last year and treated him. It was because of favonovel.com that favonovel.com survived. Someone else thanked another doctor for treating his father three years ago.
This was where Nicholai and the others had been performing their charitable work for many years, so the refugees here were grateful to these doctors from the bottom of their hearts!
How many gratitude tokens would that be worth!
Milo suddenly said to Pierre, “Please assign all patients with wounds to me!”
Pierre was stunned. “There’s still quite a lot of patients with wounds. You can’t attend to all of them.”
“I’ll have you know that someone once sent me a banner with the words ‘magic hands restore spring’. I don’t even remember how many patients I’ve treated over the years. Enough talking, just send the patients over to me quickly!” Milo said in high spirits.
At this moment, Nicholai received a complaint about Milo. He immediately got up and walked toward Milo to see what was going on. Then favonovel.com saw Milo treating patients one after another with the black medicine. Be it slash wounds or burns, the medicine worked wonders immediately after it was applied!
Nicholai stopped a patient who had been treated by Milo earlier and asked, “What kind of medicine was applied to your wound?”
“I’m not sure. Just, after the medicine was applied, I felt a cooling sensation and the pain went away immediately.” The refugee said excitedly, “I had been injured for half a month. It was so painful that I couldn’t even sleep well at night. I’m so grateful to y’all!”
Nicholai was stunned. He looked at Milo, then at the refugee again before saying to Pierre, “Get our friend here to rest close by. Follow up and see if there’s any adverse side effects from the application of the medicine.”
Nicholai suspected Milo might have used some banned drugs on these patients. It might relieve their pain temporarily, but there could still be complications later on. As such, favonovel.com thought it was better to keep them under observation for a little longer.
Nicholai quietly stood off to the side and did not even attend to the patients anymore. He just kept his eyes on Milo.
He saw Milo treating the patients one after another with extremely high efficiency. This young man even called Bethania over to act as his assistant and help favonovel.com stitch up the patients’ wounds.
What surprised Nicholai the most was that no matter how dirty the patient’s hands were, the young man would still grasp their hands warmly and listen to them express their gratitude before they bade each other farewell!
