Tokyo: Let the wicked women pay the price!

Fujino wrapped himself tightly in the quilt.

He can't sleep.

Can't sleep at all.

This was the first time any other living creature had appeared in his room.

There was definitely a strange feeling about it.

Especially since this living thing was actually a beautiful young girl.

By the moonlight,

Fujino saw a huddled-up Saki on the floor.

The body rises and falls with the sound of breathing.

Even though it was a quilt he had just found in the closet, which had been there for almost a year and had a slightly musty smell.

Saki also found it sweet.

In Fujino's view, she was fast asleep, curled up like a cat, snoring peacefully.

His smile was a little stiff... I wonder how long it's been since this child has slept in bed.

That must have been really tough.

Fujino turned over and whispered to Saki.

"Eurasia Smith".

He slowly closed his eyes.

Saki, who was under the bed, was also wrapped tightly in the quilt.

In the room, which wasn't particularly warm, she truly felt the warmth of home.

She also heard the faint "Eurasia Smith".

Saki's lips curled up slightly in silent response.

"Eurasia Smith, Fujino-san."

"Arigato".

......

Although it was still a quiet and ordinary night.

But many things have changed.

Just like now.

When Fujino sat up from the bed, scratching his hips, he was met by Saki, who was standing by the bed looking bewildered.

They looked at each other in bewilderment.

Saki's face flushed red, and she turned her head away: "I'll go wash up first, you can lie down for a while longer, Fujino-san."

She fled into the toilet, making a series of splashing sounds.

Saki scooped up a handful of water and splashed it hard on her face.

What is that?

Is that the Supreme Bone?

Is that thing really that big?

Oh my god, Saki, what are you thinking?!

She quickly finished tidying up and sat at the table with her back to Fujino's bed to put on makeup.

Her behavior appeared calm and reasonable, but her bright red ear tips had already betrayed Xiao Chunu's wild thoughts.

Fujino felt he should say something... but then thought he should wash up first.

After he got dressed, he took Saki's hand and went out.

"Let's go back to the hospital to work today."

"Nurse Wakaba?"

After getting ready, Saki, with her makeup exquisite, was waiting for Fujino to lock the door.

She stood on tiptoe, leaning against the corridor wall, her hands behind her back.

Upon hearing this, she smiled brightly and nodded to the side.

"Arigado! Dr. Fujino!"

Fujino always walks to work alone.

But things have changed today.

On the tram, Saki pulled him along and said that they could go to the convenience store later to buy oden and bento.

During the week she was taking care of Lemon, she had already figured out which bento box shop near Tokyo University was the most affordable and delicious.

Fujino sat in the chair, turned his head to look at Saki, who was gesturing excitedly as she spoke.

A smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

This is how she should be.

"Hey, Fujino-san. You'll treat me to a bento box, right?"

"I have never seen a shameless tenant who doesn't pay rent and then expects the landlord to treat them to meals."

Saki tugged at Fujino's arm and swayed it back and forth, pleading in a high-pitched, coquettish voice, "Oh! Please, my landlady!"

Fujino smiled but did not reply.

He felt that the colors of his life had changed from the black, white, and gray tones of the hospital to RGBs.

......

But happy times are always short-lived.

As Fujino walked downstairs to the hospital with Saki, chatting and laughing, he met the person he expected.

It was just an unexpected way.

"Ms. Kitano, what's wrong?"

Kitano Megumi was huddled in the corner next to the clinic entrance. Hearing Fujino's voice, she suddenly stood up, ignoring Saki who was following behind Fujino, and hugged Fujino tightly.

"Fujino-san, please, please... please—"

Fujino gently patted her back: "Ms. Kitano, please calm down. What exactly happened?"

He soon realized that this was not something that could be explained in a few words.

"Ms. Kitano, please go to the examination room first."

"Don't be afraid, I will help you."

He felt the female patient in his arms slowly stop trembling, and her sobs gradually subsided.

With a soft "hmm," Kitano Megumi nodded and gently pushed Fujino away, saying, "Thank you for your help."

After bringing Kitano Megumi and Saki to the hospital, Professor Fujino explained the situation and missed today's ward rounds.

Saki went through the onboarding process again, while Kitano Megumi followed him into the clinic.

He handed Kitano Megumi a cup of hot water.

"Take a deep breath, Ms. Kitano."

Looking at the gradually calming office lady in the suit in front of him, Fujino frowned and went straight to the point.

"What's wrong with you? Has something unexpected happened?"

Seeing that Kitano Megumi was immediately showing signs of shortness of breath, Fujino quickly grabbed her hand: "Take a deep breath! Inhale—"

Even after calming down, Kitano Megumi's face still showed fear and confusion. She swallowed several times before slowly saying, "My son wants me to go see his school's performance..."

"..."

"So you..." Fujino loosened his grip, twirling his pen, "went to try the most difficult train ride?"

"..."

"You should remember me telling you to proceed step by step."

"..."

She looked up, two streams of tears streaming down her face: "But I don't want to disappoint Jiro. My friends are still encouraging me after they heard this—"

friend?

A shadow crossed Fujino's eyes.

Why didn't heed the doctor's will and instead listened to his friend's advice?

Eh!

It can't be you again, can it?

Himegami Iris?

Fujino felt that he also needed to see a professor for PTSD treatment soon!

"Friend... a lawyer?" Fujino asked casually.

Kitano Megumi shook her head: "I don't know what her profession is. I met her on a parenting forum."

"Take a look."

[Ji**Pu: If a mother can't overcome her fear to watch her son's carefully prepared performance, she'll definitely be disliked. Ms. Kitano, please start with the most difficult train ride! As long as you have love for your son in your heart, you can overcome any difficulty! Good luck!]

Fujino got hard.

The fist hardened.

This forum account "姬**蒲" is clearly Himegami Ayame!

This despicable attempt to forcibly link motherhood with suicide therapy is a form of cognitive bias manipulation.

The result was simple: it destroyed any possibility of Kitano Megumi's recovery.

Now... Fujino frowned.

Kitano Megumi's road to recovery has become exceptionally difficult.

If Kitano Megumi develops "learned helplessness" from directly facing the most difficult challenges, then she will fall into a vicious cycle of "I am indeed a useless mother" and begin endless self-denial.

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the consultation room.

Fujino's brows furrowed even more.

He hates being disturbed during his consultations.

"Excuse me, Ms. Kitano, please wait a moment."

He called out towards the door, "Come in!"

Saki opened the door, dressed in a nurse's uniform. She lowered her head and whispered, "Fujino-san, the professor says he has something to tell you..."

Fujino was prepared to say his usual line, "Wait a moment, I'll be right there after I've finished treating this lady's condition."

He then heard a voice behind Saki that he found somewhat repulsive.

"Why are you wasting your breath talking to him? He's new here."

"Fujino Kazuhiko, to put it bluntly, your Onmyoji methods are having absolutely no positive effect on this lady!"

"I've already spoken to the professor! This consultation will also serve as an assessment for your medical specialization."

Kotori Mitsuki's sharp and sarcastic words completely ignored Kitano Megumi, whose face was growing increasingly pale in the consultation room.

Fujino stood up angrily.

He was genuinely angry.

When Takanashi makes sarcastic remarks to him, he takes it as just a jealous little woman or something she's doing for no reason.

Can a patient's medical condition be used to fight for power and profit?

Saki turned to the side.

Takanashi's petite figure squeezed past her.

Two of Fujino's acquaintances were also following behind him.

Tetsuhiko Kamijou and Shuhei Nakamura.

The other two in the clinic were medical specialists.

Takanashi pulled out a chair and sat down next to Kitano Megumi without a second thought.

"Ms. Kitano, is that right?"

"To ensure your safety, the medical department has specially arranged for three specialist doctors to conduct a consultation with you."

"You can try to see whose solution best suits your needs."

Her smile was ambiguous.

"We will definitely take full responsibility for you."
