Chapter 99 Turmoil
The next day.
It's still a day of refining medicine.
The wind was very cool at night, there were no stars in the sky, no moon, only dark clouds.
On such a quiet night, the noisy voices of people, the loud rumbling of collapsed buildings, the intermittent sounds of gunfire, and all kinds of shouting and cursing mixed together.
Jiang Mian paused in his medicine-refining movements and subconsciously looked towards the source of the loud noise, only to see flames and thick fog rising into the sky.
She stopped refining the medicine, turned off the equipment, and walked from the backyard to the door.
Standing at the door, Jiang Mian seemed to be able to see the fire and thick smoke in the outer city more clearly.
what happened?
Lin Xuan next to him also quickly opened the door, his eyes fixed on the huge towering flames in the outer city, and took out his light computer to quickly take a few pictures.
Jiang Mian subconsciously looked at Lin Xuan beside him and asked, "Do you know what happened?"
Lin Xuan also noticed Jiang Mian next to her. Seeing the confusion on Jiang Mian's face, she spoke up, "There must have been another gunfight in the outer city. It's just another fight between one gang and another. Fights happen all the time in the outer city, but I didn't expect it to get this big this time. The fire is reaching the sky."
"Such a big commotion has been caused, and the city lord doesn't care?" Jiang Mian asked doubtfully.
"You think this is a proper city?" Lin Xuan twitched her lips slightly and glanced at Jiang Mian. "As long as the city lord's interests aren't endangered, they generally won't intervene in the city of Exile Star. But this time, a building was blown up. The city lord should take action. After all, all the buildings in the city are his property."
"Like this." Jiang Mian paused and spoke.
"You can't go to the outer city recently. It's probably going to be very chaotic." Lin Xuan frowned slightly as she looked at the towering flames, then looked at Jiang Mian, "You'd better not go to the outer city recently. It's probably going to be chaotic for a while."
"Yeah." Jiang Mian paused after hearing this, then nodded.
The two were about to go back to their own rooms.
Across an alley, the door of a small building on the other side was knocked violently.
There was a violent knock on the door and a cry for help: "Please, please, help my sister. I have money on me, I can give you a lot of money! Please save my sister!"
Jiang Mian and Lin Xuan subconsciously looked towards the door of the small building on the other side of the crossroads.
Under a dim light at the door.
A boy with a white cat is kneeling at the door holding a girl with a white cat.
In the dim light, blood could be vaguely seen flowing down the girl's slender arms, onto the ground, and staining the white shirt of the white cat boy.
The white cat ears were dirty and stained with blood. The short silver hair was extremely messy and also had blood stains on it. The white cat tail was also stained with dust and blood.
"Pharmacist Su, please! Please save my sister!" The white cat boy's voice was hoarse and cracked. "Please, Pharmacist Su! As long as you save my sister, I can do anything!"
Lin Xuan saw this scene and stood beside Jiang Mian without knowing when. She slowly said, "Isn't this a coincidence? You are a doctor, and that person is also a doctor, but that person is a human doctor, and you are an orc doctor. The people you treat are different. I heard that person can treat orcs as well as humans, but when she treats orcs, they will have side effects."
"Do you know the person who lives in that small building?" Jiang Mian looked at her sideways. Although it was a question, his tone was affirmative. "Why do I feel that your tone seems to dislike the people who live there?"
Lin Xuan seemed to choke for a moment, then spoke softly, "The only 3C spiritual power healer in Baicheng is her, Su Xi."
She looked at Jiang Mian silently: "After you get along with her, you will know how easy it is to get along with me."
Lin Xuan continued, "But I advise you not to get along with her. That woman is a lunatic. I heard she was concocting forbidden drugs before being exiled here. Her husband and ten beast slaves were all whipped and tested with drugs by her."
On the Exile Star, some people have been here since birth, some came here by accident, some came here for some reason, and some were exiled here.
Everyone else can leave on a starship from the Exile Star Airport, but the exiles cannot leave on any starship belonging to the Imperial Airport unless they have their own private starship.
Even if they leave on a private starship, the exiles' computer identities will be verified as criminals. When they go to other planets, they will need identity verification to do anything. If they are identified as exiled criminals, they will become fugitives if they appear on other planets and will be hunted for life.
Jiang Mian paused, then saw the door over there open.
A woman appeared under the light at the door, and her dark shadow suddenly covered the white cat boy who was kneeling on the ground.
The woman wore gold-rimmed glasses, and her brown eyes contained a cold, dead look.
The woman first looked the cat-eared boy up and down, then spoke in a hoarse and cold voice: "I can save her, but I need one of your cat ears."
On the other side, Jiang Mian walked quickly over there.
Lin Xuan hurriedly followed her and winked gently: "Jiang Mian, you have to be a hero and save the damsel in distress."
"No, I'm going to grab some business." Jiang Mian agreed casually.
Lin Xuan paused when she heard this, and seeing that Jiang Mian had already walked forward, she hurriedly joined in the fun.
After hearing the woman's words, the white cat boy's entire orc body stiffened slightly.
However, his expression soon calmed down. After all, he had long guessed that he would have to pay other prices before asking the woman to treat him.
He first went to find other pharmacists and doctors, but those people refused to treat the orcs, so he had no choice but to come to this pharmacist.
I've heard that the consultation fee this pharmacist requires is very unusual.
It is certainly worthwhile to cut off an ear and save my sister's life.
Apart from the initial stiffness, he spoke the next second: "Okay!"
"Wait." A voice sounded at the same time.
For a moment, the woman and the boy with the white cat looked at Jiang Mian.
"I'm a new orc doctor. I don't need an ear, just a consultation fee. Would you like to come to me for treatment now?" Jiang Mian said calmly, with a calm and convincing look on his face. "Your sister's chest is injured by a laser rifle, and she can't wait any longer."
The laser gun pierced the little girl's chest, and it was unknown how close or far the wound was from her heart.
The young man with the white cat quickly picked up the little girl and turned to look at the woman who needed his ear as payment. His voice was extremely anxious, "Excuse me, Pharmacist Su, please hurry up!"
Su Xi glanced at Jiang Mian, then turned around and went in. The cat-eared boy also hurriedly carried his sister in.
Outside the door, there was only dim light, mottled bloodstains on the ground, and two slender figures.
