Rhode Island Park Project

"Hey, you guys!"

Thorne walked towards the children who were singing and laughing in the sandpit with a sullen face, "Who told you to throw sand around here?!"

But he did not mention the vicious rhymes sung by the children, so as not to arouse the suspicion of other passers-by, he just wanted to drive the children away.

Seeing an adult with a fresh wound on his face and a tourniquet on his neck walking towards them with a bad face, some of the children who were originally playing around were indeed frightened, but some of them looked rebellious and shouted at Thorne instead.

"You own this place, why do you care?"

"Oh, why should I care?"

Thorne laughed angrily, raising his voice deliberately. "You're throwing sand on me, and I can't control you?!"

He rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the fat-faced kid who was the most troublesome among the children with a menacing look.

The fat-faced kid saw that the situation was not good, his eyes rolled and he immediately started shouting.

"Someone's being beaten! An adult is beating a child!!"

The chubby-faced kid threw a handful of sand at Thorne, then turned and tried to run away. His movements were extremely skillful, with a smug smile on his face. He continued to say, "Adults bullying children, ah——!"

A hand grabbed the fat boy's ear from behind and lifted it up. The pride on his face immediately turned into twisted pain.

Thorne, who was also not a good person, was covered in dust from the sand. He quickly caught the fat boy who was obviously not doing this for the first time. No matter how the other party slapped his hand that was holding his ear, he did not waver.

“Let go! It hurts, ahhh! You /*cheap local swear word*/! /*swear*//*swear*/!”

The fat boy whose ears were held by Thorne looked to be only about 10 years old, but he started swearing immediately. Thorne simply exerted more force with his hands.

"Ouch!!"

The little fat boy howled even more miserably, and Thorne's face, which had been gloomy for a long time since the beginning of the day, finally showed a slight smile.

At this time, the fat boy, who had scolded everyone but failed to solve the problem, started shouting hysterically again:

"He has black stones on him! He has black stones on him!! I saw it!! Help!!"

Thorne's expression changed slightly.

There is no way that there is a black stone on his body. Although he was indeed infected, he has never shown any obvious symptoms under the treatment of Doctor Reed. This is also the reason why he has always been one of the main forces in the activities.

However, he also knew that the more panicked he was at a time like this, the more suspicious he would become. Therefore, he continued to maintain his usual expression with a cold face, while mockingly saying:

"Keep shouting. Let's see if you can find any other reason to save you."

"Hey, isn't that the little brat from the Burgan family? Someone finally taught you a lesson today?"

A passerby who stopped to walk by laughed and joked.

It seems that Thorne's guess was correct. This kid is not the first time to cause trouble, and some people even know him.

Others gradually gathered here because of the commotion.

"Is that person infected?"

"No, that kid from the Burgan family isn't the first time he's been yelling nonsense. You can't trust him."

"But, but what if..."

A woman said nervously, "If he really is infected, and infects anyone, it will be disastrous..."

"Well, I still think it's unlikely..."

Although he said so, the originally smiling man's expression became obviously hesitant.

Thorne, who maintained his expression, felt a slight sinking in his heart.

More and more people gathered. A small number of them knew the fat boy who usually behaved recklessly, but most of the passers-by obviously did not know him.

Therefore, the remarks Thorne heard quickly began to trend.

"Maybe the fat guy really saw it?" said a passing office worker who was eating melons.

"Children have very sharp eyes and can always see things that adults can't see!" said an elderly woman who was buying groceries while passing by.

"That kid's words are not credible." Nearby residents.

"That little kid's words aren't believable, but those other kids are shouting together, so they can't be lying, right?" asked a resident passing by in the distance.

"Regardless of whether it's credible or not, let's call the police first, just in case." Passerby A

"Let me take a picture first. If that person is really infected, I have to warn my friends to be careful." Passerby B.

"There's nothing certain about the matter yet, it's not good to spread rumors like this, right?" Passerby A

"Whether it's true or not, if someone I know is infected, won't I regret it to death?"

"Uh... then I'll take a picture first."

“——The police are here!”

Chapter 329: Lavshini:?√

"……PhD!"

In the quarantine block, Luo Hang, who had just taken a hot bath, had not yet walked out of the bathroom door when the blonde girl Draco rushed in.

Of course, he could feel the girl's anxiety without her expressionless face showing too much emotion. After all, even if he was not very worldly-wise, he knew that Ravshini would not normally do something like trespassing into the men's bathroom... probably.

"What happened?"

He soothed the girl in a calm tone, and without changing his expression, he took a bath towel from the shelf next to him and wrapped it around his waist.

"Thorne was taken away by the police and was reportedly identified as an infected person."

It seemed that she didn't pay attention to Luo Hang's actions. Rafshini just stared at his face and said.

"Don't worry,"

He walked over to Ravshini and patted the girl on the shoulder. "Our medical treatment will be fine. This has been verified. Unless they send Thorne to a top-level medical research institute, it would be impossible to detect definitive evidence that he has been infected in a small border town like this."

As Luo Hang spoke, a hint of thought flashed in his eyes.

He never expected that his premonition would come true so soon.

If Mr. Thorne had not been treated in advance, given his condition, he would probably have been confirmed as an infected person.

Faced with Luo Hang's calm explanation, Lavishini also nodded.

"Let's go over and take a look at the situation first,"

Luo Hang walked out of the bathroom and looked at Shuangxing and Dubin standing in the room. "We need someone to stay here too. I think I can leave it to you guys, right?"

The people who got into trouble this time were Lavushini's subordinates. As the leader, Lavushini herself still needed to be present.

Although Ravshini herself may not have such awareness, he still has to help consider it.

As for whether this would help his love rival, he had never worried about it.

"Don't stay up too late, it's almost time for dinner."

Her Royal Highness the Princess responded generously.

Although the protagonist of this vacation is Her Royal Highness the Princess, Miss Frost Star herself did not care about it at this time.

He nodded to Doberman, then not caring about the presence of three women in the room, he simply picked up the prepared change of clothes and began to change.

As a grown man, he is quite open-minded in this regard.

Frost Star also glanced at someone's back, and then seemed to suddenly remember something. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she nudged Lavshini beside her with her elbow.

"When asking for help, there should be gratitude and rewards."

As Frost Star spoke, she lifted the fruit basket that the locals had just brought on the table. Looking at the innocent Rafshini, she continued with a smile on her lips.

"You've done very well before, but I have to remind you that your small token of gratitude is actually due to me helping you fill in the gaps. With these additions, it's finally considered a substantial return gift."

Ravshini's eyes widened slightly, and the white rabbit in front of her, hiding a malicious smile, continued:

"As for this time, you can think about it more."

Luo Hang, with his back to the two of them, put on his clothes in an orderly manner without moving his ears at all.

After a while, Luo Hang, who was dressed neatly, waved his hand in front of Frost Star's chest with a smile on his face, and left the room with Lavshini.

"cough,"

It was only at this moment that he glanced at the delicate face of the Draco girl beside him and said, "You don't have to care about what Yelena said."

This is actually an exaggeration.

If he really wanted to stop her, he would not have done so when he heard Yelena speak, but instead said it in a less firm tone after Lavshini had already started thinking.

Rather than persuasion, it is more like adding fuel to the fire.

Expecting an old scumbag to be a good man probably means you haven't woken up from the beginning.

As expected, Lavshini, who was walking beside Luo Hang, shook her head slightly.

"Miss Froststar is right. No one in this neighborhood is a Rhodes Island resident or operator. The Doctor has no obligation to run around for them. Thorne only made you make a special trip because I asked him to."

Ravshini paused.

The girl's emerald-green, clear eyes looked at him quietly.

"Obviously, I should be the one to handle things like this, but after the doctor came, I only thought of these things after I found him..."

The blonde Draco girl spoke softly, raising her slender white hands and placing them in front of her chest. A hint of confusion about her own behavior flashed across her eyes, which were clear as day.

"Uh,"

It must be said that facing such a pure and kind girl, he suddenly felt a little ashamed of himself.

But this feeling disappeared quickly.

The previous one was also a good and innocent rural girl, but now she is almost unbearable to look at.

A guy with such a bad record like him doesn't need to think about clearing himself up and starting a new life. He should just stick to his evil ways to the end. Whenever he gets hurt by a woman, he deserves it.

and so--

He placed his palm silently on the waist of the girl who was looking at him with innocent and confused eyes. He bent down slightly and whispered in her ear:

"Because I'm your doctor, okay? No matter what the time or the situation, you can always rely on me. This is the promise I've always made to the people who believe in me, to my operators, and to you, Ravshini."

"PhD……"

Ravshini's eyes trembled.

He faced the girl with a warm smile.

"I hope I can always be your doctor."

"..."

"Ah."

The confusion in the eyes of the innocent Draco girl became clear and distinct again. She looked at him steadily with her beautiful eyes and nodded her head.

Uh, no no, you don’t have to be so gullible, right?

As the instigator, Luo Hang himself felt a little weird.

Such a simple girl, the guilt in her heart has increased again.

Does this mean that he has completely let down all his guard against himself?

You can do anything, as long as you can do it.

"PhD."

"Ok?"

"I am willing to be your operator forever, but even so,"

Ravshini looked at him seriously and firmly. "Please allow me to do enough to repay you, instead of being the one who should express gratitude the most, but expressing the least, as before."
