[Navilette's efficiency was swift and decisive. The day after the meeting, Watlin led a plainclothes special patrol team to secretly garrison the area around the café. Any criminals who dared to make a move would undoubtedly be met with a swift and decisive strike from the well-trained patrol officers.]

Thanks to the special patrol team's swift and decisive actions and your deliberate warnings, the situation where Melousin was in danger due to her good intentions was prevented from recurring. This brought a sigh of relief to both you and Watlin.

Thus, Mu Feng's life returned to normal once again, continuing his "simple and unpretentious" daily life in Fontaine.

July 19th, sunny. I baked a strawberry cake roll to feed the hardworking Carolie. I actually made the cute little Carolie work overtime. This is exploitation, Violet!

July 20th, sunny. Took Aibelle and Ofini to go diving in the Seruo Sea. To be honest, do the sea otter and the Navellet really have no relation?

July 22nd, cloudy. I accompanied Siegwen to study medical books and took the nurse to buy some cute stickers. I hope these stickers won't end up on every piece of my clothing.

July 23rd, rain. It seems that a certain water dragon is not in a very stable mood. I brought some desserts to visit my little secretary Sedna, and also went to the Shadow Chasing Pavilion to cuddle with the little cuties.

July 24th, overcast. Damn it, I can't keep being so lazy! Think about Fufu's orders, think about your glory as Fontaine's best pastry chef, get to work, Mufeng!

July 25th, sunny. Caroline, enjoying a rare day off, took the little cutie on a picnic at the foot of Mount Munsos. Indeed, a moment of slacking off is enjoyable, and continuous slacking off is even more enjoyable—the ancients were right!

……

Months later, at Fontainebleau, at the Maple Dew Café.

"Reading medical books again, Siegwen? Have some snacks and take a break." After seeing off the last customer in the café, Mu Feng stretched and served Siegwen, who was sitting quietly behind the counter reading a medical book, freshly baked butter cookies. He then gently rubbed the little nurse's pink and blue ears.

"Thank you so much, Brother Mufeng! Would you like to share with me?" Xigewen took the plate full of cookies, picked up a small piece and tasted it, a happy smile immediately appearing on her cute little face.

"Then I'll gladly accept your offer, my little darling." Mu Feng smiled and sat down next to Xigewen, enjoying his late-night snack while quietly watching Xigewen flip through the thick, heavy medical book.

"Brother Mufeng, what do you think medicine is?" Holding a thick medical book she had taken from Mufeng's bookshelf, Xigewen blinked her ruby-like eyes and asked earnestly.

"Medicine...that's a profound question." Mu Feng pondered for a while, resting his chin on his hand, before carefully choosing his words to answer, "In my opinion, it's probably a skill related to saving lives and healing the wounded."

"Hmm, is that so..." Siegwen pressed her small finger to her lips, as if deep in thought.

"So, what does Hisewen think?" Mu Feng asked curiously. What kind of image did human medicine have in the mind of this angelic little nurse?

"Hey, what do you think?" Siegwen blinked her pretty eyes, propped her chubby cheeks up with her two little round hands, and looked on with longing and anticipation. "I think medicine is more like a kind of [magic]."

"magic?"

“That’s right. In Melusin’s view, human birth, aging, sickness and death are natural laws like the rising and setting of the sun. However, the existence of magic like medicine can give humans the power to shake the natural laws of birth, aging, sickness and death.”

"I think if I could also master this kind of [magic], maybe I could bridge the gap between humans and Melusin, and thus truly understand and integrate into humanity."

"More importantly, Brother Mufeng is also human. Xigewen doesn't want to be unable to help when facing such natural laws one day."

Mu Feng chuckled, a deep sense of emotion welling up inside him. Gently pulling the little one into his arms, Mu Feng softly pinched Xigewen's chubby cheeks and replied earnestly with a smile, "It definitely will, I believe in Xigewen."

Having received Mu Feng's affirmation, Xigewen rubbed her cheek against Mu Feng's palm and revealed a sweet smile, but then it turned into a faint disappointment as if she had thought of something.

"However, Siegwen met a traveling healer a few days ago, and she didn't seem to think so."

……

A few days ago.

"What do you think medicine is? How naive!" The stern old woman, nicknamed "The Witch" by the children, and also a highly respected itinerant doctor, rebuked Siegwen mercilessly after listening to her entire idea of ​​medicine.

Sigwen sat on the wooden chair in front of the quack doctor, her small round hands neatly placed on her lap, her head lowered, listening quietly to the old woman's admonition like a student facing a teacher, prepared to be rejected again.

In this era when Melusin had just integrated into human society and was completely rejected by humans, people who accepted her without any obstacles, like her brother Mufeng, were extremely rare, let alone finding a doctor willing to teach Melusin medicine. Before this, Siegwen had visited many famous doctors, but without exception, she had been turned away. Even this stern "witch" was the first to listen to her thoughts on medicine in their entirety.

A few mischievous children sneaked up on the unsuspecting Siegwen, quietly picked up some pebbles from the ground, and prepared to play a trick on this "oddball" that the adults talked about.

Before they could even make a move, they were startled by the old woman's sharp glare, dropped their stones, and turned away in a huff. The children's nickname for this stern itinerant doctor, "witch," was no exaggeration; her intimidating presence was undeniable.

"Come with me." The witch's expression remained stern, but her tone softened slightly. She rose and waved for Siegwen to follow. Pushing aside the heavy medicine curtain, the old woman rummaged through her fragrant backpack and pulled out a small medicine box. Her calloused fingertips gently stroked the box's slightly worn exterior, and a complex look of memories flashed in her cloudy eyes.

The old woman solemnly handed the small medicine box to Siegwen. Wearing a mask, her weathered face showed an unusually serious expression, which made her look even more dignified.

The witch spoke solemnly:

"As a wandering doctor, I won't stay in Fontainebleau for long. If you think you're ready to embark on the path of medicine, then come with me, and I'll give you the right answer you're looking for."
