Mystery: The Returner of the Stars

Chapter 101 The Upcoming Baby

18 St Louis, Jorwood.

Inside a townhouse whose exterior wall has been eroded by wind and rain for a long time and is slightly blackened.

Sergeant Reed was squatting at the door of the room, smoking a cigarette with his head bowed. Seven or eight half-smoked cigarette butts had already been scattered on the floor.

When the number of cigarette butts on the ground reached more than a dozen, there was a slight movement in the room.

Sergeant Reed immediately extinguished the cigarette he had just lit, stood up, wiped his hands on the clothes on both sides, and then looked at the doctor who opened the door.

He held back his anxiety and asked in a calm tone as much as possible: "Doctor Lord, how is my wife's condition?"

Dr. Lord closed the door, shook his head slightly, and sighed: "The situation of the fetus in the mother's womb is not optimistic. You must go to the hospital for surgery as soon as possible. In this case, it depends on your own choice."

Sheriff Reed's head was stuffy, his throat was dry and hoarse: "What to choose?"

"Protect the child or protect the lover."

"..."

Sergeant Reed turned pale, moved his lips twice, thought for a long time, and finally said, "Is this the only way?"

"This is just the most ideal situation. Given your lover's current physical condition, you may not be able to keep both sides."

"..."

Sheriff Reed's face turned even paler. He obviously wanted to say a lot, but all he could say was, "I will discuss it with my wife."

"Make a decision as soon as possible, and don't delay the timing of surgery."

"Okay, thank you Dr. Lord."

Sergeant Reed tried his best to squeeze a smile on his face, "Thank Baron Campbell for his kindness as well."

"I will."

Dr. Lord did not stay long, left after leaving some medicine.

Sergeant Reed looked at the closed door, and wanted to take a step, but only felt a thousand catties of weight.

He leaned against the wall by the door, his whole body was powerless and limp, and he sat on the ground regardless of his image.

After a long time, he spat, cursed a few bad words, stretched out his hands and rubbed his cheeks and the corners of his eyes, then got up and straightened his clothes, and then slowly opened the door and walked in.

……

In the hall, on the sofa, Hastur asked after listening to Dr. Lord's description, "Is there no other way of treatment?"

"It's very difficult. With the current medical level, it takes a lot of luck to keep one of them."

"If you are lucky enough, you can save the lives of both sides at the same time?"

"The probability of this is very low, unless it is really the blessing of the mother god."

"I believe that the Mother Goddess will not sit by and watch any new life die."

"Does the Baron also believe in the Mother Goddess?"

"No, my belief is the goddess."

Dr. Lord finally left quite disappointed.

"It takes a lot of luck."

Hastur wondered if he should help me with this matter. After all, he had already sent a doctor to help, so he couldn't give up halfway.

It's actually very simple to be lucky, just ask Will to borrow some luck, but this kind of thing needs to trouble a Sequence 1 Mercury Snake... It always feels too outrageous.

It's better to go to Grelint to ask about his recent achievements, maybe he has some medicine that can help.

You can also go to Sheriff Reed's house and make a relevant rule.

This can be regarded as my best effort.

Coincidentally, he also wanted to ask Grelint about the research on mosquito repellent powder.

Glaint's house.

In order to study drugs, Grelint specially built a new basement in the backyard of his home.

According to him, researching drugs can only have that kind of mysterious atmosphere if it is built underground.

When Hastur walked into the basement, Grelint was still fiddling with his bottles and jars, worrying about the medicinal liquid in the crucible over there from time to time, and he was as busy as a spinning top.

Hastur, who stood behind and stared silently for a while, waited until Grelint stopped what he was doing before he said, "Greyint, what good things have you researched recently?"

"Hasta, you're here, wait for me, I'll make some adjustments here."

Grelint continued to fiddle with the instrument without raising his head, and it took about ten minutes before he completely finished today's experiment.

After washing his hands and face, he said happily: "Hasta, I feel that my mental state has improved a lot recently, as if I have broken through some kind of bottleneck. Do you think I have completely digested the pharmacist's potion?"

"You should know this kind of thing better than me."

"That's complete digestion. I once had the feeling you described."

Hastur smiled and said: "Congratulations, you are ready to be promoted to Sequence Eight."

Grelint was also very happy, waving his arms and said: "I have gathered the extraordinary materials for the Sequence 8 Beast Tamer, and after I rest for a few days, I am going to try to advance."

Congratulations on that.

Grelint can have such a speed, and it is not in vain for me to give him a little trouble from time to time.

"By the way, Hastur, is there something you came to see me today?"

After being happy, Grelint asked about Hastur's reason for coming.

"A business about mosquito repellent powder and a medical malpractice."

"The ingredients of the mosquito repellent powder are very simple. I also added some flavors according to your suggestion. As long as the workers are called, it can be put into production soon."

Grelint then handed Hastur the improved mosquito repellent powder formula, and then asked about Sheriff Reed's lover.

After listening to Hastur's introduction, he frowned slightly and said, "Use my extraordinary ability to help others...Hasta, I suddenly feel the greatness of life."

Hastur said with a little deep meaning: "Perhaps this is your extraordinary path."

At the apex of the pharmacist's pathway, the blood queen Lilith is the Mother Earth Goddess.

It is normal to be affected by this extraordinary path.

"It may be my illusion. I don't have so much time to help others."

Greint gave a reason he could accept.

"I happen to have a drug that can recuperate the deficiency of the body. Cough... This is an accidental product, you should understand."

Grelint looked embarrassed. In order not to misunderstand Hasta, he hurriedly explained: "My body is fine in all aspects, and there is no problem at all. I am just interested in this aspect."

"Greint, I have always believed in you."

Believe that you are indeed physically deficient.

Hastur silently added another sentence in his heart.

"I used a lot of precious medicinal materials to refine this medicine. It is very nourishing to the human body and can be taken by both men and women."

Grelint smiled and said, "Hasta, do you want to try one too?"

"Greint, I'm different from you."

"..."

Grelint blushed slightly, and explained to himself again, reiterating that there was nothing wrong with his body.

"Can pregnant women also use this medicine?"

"Of course, this is a medicine that I carefully formulated. I even gave it to two doctors in my family. They all said that it works very well."

Hastur still believes in this point. The medicine developed by the pharmacist is far better than ordinary medicine.

In the case of Sheriff Reed's lover, he can nourish his body with medicine first, and then perform the operation, the success rate will be much higher.

Coupled with the rules made by oneself, it should be safe and sound.

Hastur didn't stay for long, and led a doctor from Grelint's house to Sheriff Reed's house.

The doctor had taken the drug of Grelint before, so he could make a more accurate judgment based on the condition of Sheriff Reed's lover.

Hastur's arrival made Sergeant Reed's eyes flushed, he suppressed his gratitude, and greeted Hastur and the doctor.

"everything will get better."

With a word of comfort, Hastur secretly made a rule,
The general idea is: mother and child must be safe and sound.

In the end, he also gave his own blessing: the mother rejoiced at the birth of the baby, and the baby rejoiced at being born into the world.

After all, he can be regarded as a Extraordinary of the half-fate path, and his blessing should also play a role.

Although it is far less than Will's blessing, adding some luck can still be done.

Soon, the doctor came out of the room, saying that the problem was not serious and that he could take the medicine developed by Grelint.

You can recuperate at home for a few more days, and then go to the hospital for surgery when your body improves. There should be a high possibility that the mother and child will be safe.

"Doctor, you, are you telling the truth?"

After being affirmed repeatedly, Sergeant Reed's eyes were filled with tears, and he couldn't believe the good news.

Obviously, everything was so gloomy this morning, especially Dr. Lord's statement that he was going to be big or young, which made him feel like he was in a cold hell.

But now, his situation suddenly flew from hell to heaven.

The joy in this can no longer be expressed in words.

All thanks to Baron Campbell!

It was he who helped him change this desperate reality!
He was very fortunate to have taken Baron Campbell's case and successfully protected Baron Campbell.

"Take good care of your loved ones and believe that miracles will happen to them."

Hastur did not stay long, took the doctor with him, and left under Sheriff Reed's grateful eyes.

With no outsiders present, Sergeant Reed could no longer suppress his emotions. He lay on the wall at the door and wiped his tears, then straightened his clothes again, and walked into the room with firm steps.
