"Knock knock knock."
"Please come in~"
Chapter 142 Please Come In
With a "Come in", Maria gently pushed open the door.
The cold room quickly came into her sight.
But unlike Texas who only took a glance, Maria clearly felt that the white in this room had a different feeling.
The ground is white...
The walls are white...
The curtains are white...
The table is also white...
Almost everything in sight is white.
Even the light that shone into the room from the window was white.
And here, the red color in those bags of residual blood is so glaring.
The snow-white woman seemed to have merged into the room, sitting there quietly, her eyes as red as blood gems flickering vaguely in the air.
It's so bright that people can't take their eyes off it.
Maria was silent for a long time, then stepped forward silently.
"Are you here? If you are, sit down first."
The white-haired woman didn't raise her head, but continued to work hard on the documents.
Although Rhodes Island is also a well-known organization, the number of members within it has never been large, and the number allocated to each department is even smaller.
So the management style is very flat.
Take the medical department as an example. It only has a few supervisors, drug developers, doctors, and doctors from other subordinate departments.
Warfarin actually works as a blood bank manager and only occasionally works as a doctor.
But as a veteran of Rhodes Island, the old woman Kal'tsit was temporarily away, so all the work that the other party should have done naturally fell on her.
To be honest, Huafalin herself was very unhappy about this.
Who likes to work overtime every day when they can just slack off?
But no way.
There are only a few elders in Rhodes Island. Kal'tsit is not here, and the others don't know much about medical care, so she has to go even if she doesn't want to.
Only she has the authority and ability to handle the problem.
Especially now that they are in contact with a large city-state like Lungmen, many medical equipment needs to be eliminated and replaced, and various medicines need to be replenished - after all, Rhodes Island cannot produce everything by hand.
All these trivial matters that Kal'tsit usually handled now suddenly fell on her alone, putting her under tremendous pressure.
This was her seventh blood bag of overdose today.
But even so, she still felt that her brain was not getting enough blood.
I feel like I'm losing some hair.
"There's another important document here... I just forgot it. Wait a moment, I'll give you a physical examination after I finish processing it."
Hua Farin didn't even raise his head and continued writing furiously.
Maria was also sitting quietly at the side, not in a hurry.
She just observed the blood demon in front of her for a while, then turned her head and looked around.
This should be the other party's private office. There is also a simple bookshelf next to it, which contains many books related to medicine.
Out of curiosity, Maria also stood up, took out a book and started to look through it.
It was a book about emergency surgical procedures... It described in detail how to deal with emergencies in various complex situations and for different races.
However, Maria had little interest in medicine. Instead, she was more curious about the anatomy illustrations in the books...
"So... depending on the degree of atavism, the position of organs in different creatures will also vary to a certain extent?"
Maria nodded silently, her eyes narrowed slightly.
Then in the future, when you're fighting, you should be more careful when your internal organs are critically hit...
Soon, Maria was attracted by these pictures with different structures, and she opened several books one after another to start looking at them.
Soon, she noticed that the authors of these books were all signed as Mr. Blood.
"Are you interested in medicine?"
Just as Maria was wondering who this Mr. Blood was, Huafalin continued to speak.
"If you are interested, you can learn it~"
“Studying medicine is not difficult, and the employment is very stable!”
"Don't look at me like this, this is actually special. I'm usually very free~"
She spoke, lowering her head with a hint of a smile on her lips.
But Maria just looked back at her and then shook her head silently.
“I’m very interested in the illustration above.”
"illustration?"
"Yes." Maria nodded silently. "Those studies on the differentiation of internal organs are very helpful to me."
"Identify the internal organs... Help? Are you a forensic doctor?"
Huafalin curled her lips, thinking it was fun, but it turned out to be something she had learned before.
“…Not really.”
Maria silently denied the other party's guess.
"I'm just a hunter."
"hunter?"
Huafalin frowned, but she still didn't raise her head.
"The books I bought here are all about people... If you want to dissect prey, wouldn't it be a bit strange to read these books?"
"My prey may be a little different from what you imagined..."
"So... mercenaries?"
"Very close."
"Hmph~" Huafalin curled her lips.
She didn't care much about ordinary mercenaries... After all, when the Tower of Babel was first established, it also cooperated with many Sarkaz, and she had treated quite a few mercenaries.
But what made her unhappy was that Maria actually called herself a hunter?
Does this mean that she treats others as prey?
Such an arrogant attitude made Huafarin feel uncomfortable.
People in Rhodes Island often say that her ethical concepts are problematic... Honestly, she was suddenly captured on the street and studied.
But in fact, warfarin still has its limits.
Just like the blood demon feeds on blood, but she never compares others to buns or anything like that.
In her opinion, her desire to study other people is just her curiosity about special individuals as a doctor.
I still treat it as one of the same kind... Every time I take action, I am fully prepared.
Make sure the other person won’t be left with a scar afterwards!
The reason why she chose to bludgeon and sneak attack was simply because she felt that the other party would not cooperate with her, so she had to take the initiative to attack. But even so, she also restrained some rough actions!
Maria's veiled words completely showed that she didn't regard others as her own kind, but as lower-level prey...
This made Huafalin dissatisfied.
But she didn't say much.
After all, this is work now... Rhodes Island's operations are not bad, but they are definitely not that good either.
If you can make more money for Rhode Island, then make more money.
As for what others think, that is their business.
There is no need to be angry with such people.
Thinking about this, she continued to lower her head and deal with the documents.
Maria continued to look at the books around her.
After another moment, Huafalin suddenly spoke.
"Your name... is Maria, right?"
"……Yes."
"I once knew a woman named Maria..."
"is it?"
"Of course, she is much more likable than you." Shinobu became more and more angry the more he thought about it. Facing this guy who treated people as prey, Huafalin finally couldn't help but said a few words to him.
"And she's also much more capable than you. She's more of a human being."
"...Really? Then what kind of person is she?"
Maria seemed not to have heard the other person's words, and just responded while looking at the anatomy books.
"What kind of person is she?"
When asked by Maria, Huafalin was stunned for a moment. After a moment, she turned her head away with an indignant look on her face and muttered softly.
"Just an irritating guy..."
"……Yeah?"
"Ah, yes. She's so mysterious all day long, and I don't know what she's doing. She won't tell me when asked. When we get into a fight, she keeps saying something like, 'As the Lord of the Banshee Court, I will never back down,' and then she charges in alone. Another time, she was fighting a group of blood demons all by herself, and everyone was ready to help, but she came back and said they didn't need her, and she could handle it herself... She was covered in blood and wouldn't let anyone check her. When she got tired, she'd just go find that annoying woman and get intimate with her. Hell, they have a child together!"
Huafalin was like a nagging woman, and in one breath she told out all the memories of Maria in her heart.
"He worked alone all day long, saying he could handle it...but in the end, he ended up dead and his body wasn't even found."
Having said that, Huafalin's eyes couldn't help but look a little lonely.
Even though Maria had never spoken to her properly, that woman's every move was to protect herself, who was not welcomed by the Sarkaz...
Although she never admits it, she actually does things.
really...
I'm not a little kid, do I need you to protect me?
Those people don't dare to do anything to me...
What a...tsundere and troublesome woman!
Huafalin stopped writing and finally let out a long breath.
Maria just listened silently as a listener.
"That's it..."
"Yeah... Tsk, now that I think about it, even though that woman threatened me and was wary of me all the time, she did take care of me. Tsk, if it weren't for repaying her favor, I would have left Rhodes Island long ago. I wouldn't even have listened to that old Kal'tsit's invitation!"
The more Huafalin spoke, the more she felt a nameless irritation in her heart.
Obviously, everyone was ready to fight with that pretentious guy from the Blood Demon Court, but she insisted that she could handle it alone and left.
I finally caught up with him, but ended up getting beaten up and told that I was too weak and had no qualifications...
Although I'm not good at fighting...but it's not as bad as she said, I have no fighting ability at all, right?
