Chapter 85
Inside the medical department, Tōno Saikiku dismissed the little girl and listened to the doctor's explanation while propping her head up with her hand.
The doctor in the white coat carefully explained the little girl's condition, "Mr. Tōno, you don't need to worry. This child is in good health. There have been no other side effects, even though her eyes were injured."
Tōno Saikiku propped his head up with his hand, seemingly lost in thought. After a long while, he finally uttered with a sigh, "She really is my daughter!"
doctor:"……"
I've been talking for ages, and you haven't listened to a single word?
"Don't worry about her, please continue telling me about her situation." Tōno Saikiku waved with a smile, "Hurry up, I still need to go to the flower bed downstairs to look for her later."
Speaking of the flower bed, the doctor couldn't help but glance down at the window.
It's amazing how they are both blind, yet they can walk without any difficulty.
A little girl skips and hops along the checkered path, looking around curiously. In her own filtered world, the child curiously comes to a broken manhole cover.
"What is this?" Xiao Luo asked tentatively, patting it.
Manhole covers.
The doctor, observing the little girl's movements, hesitated before turning back to ask Ye Caiju, "Your child is blind, right?"
"Hmm, isn't that obvious? What's wrong?" Tōno Saikiku asked casually.
"It's nothing, she just ran to a broken manhole cover. I was worried she might not be able to see and might fall in," the doctor said, looking down at the scene below and letting out a sigh of relief. "She touched it, so there's nothing to worry about."
Tōno Saikiku, fiddling with her fingers, didn't seem to care much. "You should focus on telling me about the report. Don't worry, she's eight now, not three..."
The words abruptly stopped, and the man in combat gear vanished from the opposite seat in an instant. Tiny molecules drifted out through the window cracks.
After Xiao Luo touched the hole in the manhole cover, she hesitated for a while. Looking at the ground that was a different color from the one next to her, she thought for a long time and slowly asked, "Lingling, when you walk on the road, do you have a habit of deliberately stepping on the grid?"
The system had a bad feeling. Before it could say anything, the little girl jumped up with a serious expression. "Xiao Luo is still small and light. It's okay for her to jump over the manhole cover."
The moment the little girl fell, the already broken manhole cover shattered into pieces, and the child was pulled up by her collar with one hand in the last second before she fell.
Lingling watched this scene unfold, remaining silent for a long while before exclaiming in admiration, "Waiting is a gamble with life; taking a step forward is a hymn to humanity's fearlessness in the face of death. Sir, you are truly righteous."
"Didn't you already know it was about to break? Why did you still jump on it?" At the same time as its words came the accusation from a wild chrysanthemum. The man was shocked and pulled the person in front of him, asking incredulously.
Xiao Luo hadn't yet recovered from the sudden weightlessness. She kicked her legs a couple of times, then stared at the other person with bewildered eyes.
Why do this?
The little girl thought for a moment and said, "It was the devil's temptation that tempted me to jump down."
Abbreviation: I don't know, I just really want to jump.
Tōno Saikiku frowned. Even though he'd been sensible since childhood, he still didn't understand the underlying mechanisms of a normal child's interaction. He also couldn't believe that a little girl, knowing the ground was bad, would still jump down without hesitation.
Is it... supernatural control? He frowned. What's wrong with this child? Why is he being controlled to die?
Moreover, it just so happened that none of the team members were around. If I hadn't been keeping a close eye on things, Xiao Luo would probably have been crippled or killed.
Who is it? How does the other party know about the girl's situation? Is there an undercover agent in the army?
Tōno Saikiku fell into deep thought. Should he tell the captain and the others?
"Hey! Mr. Tōno, are you alright?" The doctor, who had witnessed the whole thing, leaned out of the fourth-floor window and shouted, "Don't rush the medical report, why don't you take your daughter to the psychiatric department first?"
Picking Chrysanthemums in the Field: ...
"What does that mean?" the child next to him asked, bewildered.
The man twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing an expression that wanted to mock but was trying hard to suppress, "I'm saying you're mentally ill."
