"Nice to meet you, Dr. Stan, you are younger than I thought!" Laura Albert held up the hem of the whalebone skirt, leaned slightly to salute, and asked after straightening her body, "I heard You were in the town square of Odia, and you took out a diseased organ for a townsman on the spot, didn’t you?”
Is this a question? Qin Lun's eyes flashed. Although he couldn't see Laura's expression, he could feel the dignified gaze of the girl hidden under the veil.
"Cough, cough, cough!" Before Qin Lun could answer, the old butler Jason coughed dryly.
"I'm sorry, please forgive my offense!" Laura was taken aback for a moment, and quickly realized that her question was very impolite to Qin Lun, "Thank you for everything you have done for Odia !"
"Please don't pay attention, this is the responsibility of a doctor!" Qin Lun nodded with a smile.
Laura seemed a little embarrassed. After apologizing, she immediately passed the two of them with her skirt and hurried away.
After Qin Lun rescued people in the town square, the townspeople talked about his magical potion of potion the most. As for the operation he performed on the spot, no one mentioned it. This is also easy to understand. Surgery in this era is not mysterious. The townspeople take his surgery as a natural treatment for a doctor, and it is not surprising.
Why doesn't Laura Albert care about his potion "World Tree Flower Dew", but cares about a doctor's most normal surgery
What made this well-educated aristocratic girl give up her reserve, and even had no time to change out of the attire, so she couldn't wait to wait in the corridor, just to ask an obvious fact
And... thanks for everything he did for Odia? For Odia…
Qin Lun looked at the girl's back with a faint smile on his face. It seemed that there would be many interesting things to do during this trip to the castle.
…
"If you need anything else, please let the servants inform me!"
The old housekeeper, Jason, sent Qin Lun into a large guest room, and closed the door with some embarrassment. In the corridor just now, the performance of the little mistress made him, an old man who usually has strict requirements on etiquette, feel very embarrassed. You must know that the etiquette of the children of the Albert family has been taught by him since childhood.
Although the old butler knew why Laura did this, he still blamed himself a little. However, while blaming himself, the old man developed a little extra affection for Qin Lun. The young doctor had been smiling broadly from just now until now, and he didn't even ask about Laura, as if the girl's offense was just a trivial matter.
This is a well-educated young man! Jason involuntarily gave an evaluation of a professional aristocratic butler.
After the old housekeeper left, Qin Lun turned around and looked at the VIP room he was in.
This room is very large. According to visual inspection, it is almost a hundred square meters. In the center is a large double wooden bed with brocade silk curtains and tassel knots hanging from the head of the bed. There are also two mahogany bedside cabinets, one of which has a delicate glazed lamp on it.
There are two small windows with double doors at the back of the room, and some pastoral oil paintings for decoration are hung on the walls on both sides. On the right side of the room is a small salon composed of several sandalwood chairs and a small coffee table, and a vertical luxury wine cabinet is displayed at the rear. On the left side of the room is a long desk with stationery notes, hard quills and ink bottles.
Looking at these elegant and heavy mahogany furniture, Qin Lun nodded slightly. The aristocratic family that can last for hundreds of years really has an extraordinary family background. If you choose any of these wooden furniture to put outside, it is estimated that they are all valuable antique treasures. In Albert Castle, they are just ordinary furniture randomly placed in the guest rooms for guests to use.
Qin Lun took a few steps forward, sat down in front of the desk, and took out a quill from the pen holder. Rubbing the soft bird feathers at the back of the quill, he slowly fell into thought.
The small town of Odia, the Albert family, the military castle, Qin Lun dipped the quill pen into the ink cartridge, and wrote a few words on the note paper. After thinking about it, he wrote the names of Thomas Albert and Laura Albert under the three words, and finally paused, and wrote the name of Stephen Albert, the mission target, at the bottom. name.
"Bang bang bang!" While thinking, Qin Lun tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table, and the quill subconsciously drew black lines between a few words.
Suddenly, Qin Lun felt a gust of cold wind blowing into the back of his neck, and he couldn't help but get goosebumps. He frowned slightly, turned around and saw a small double-door window on the back wall of the room was wide open, and the wooden window was blown continuously by the cold wind against the outer wall of the room, making loud bangs.
Is the maid in charge of cleaning not closed? Qin Lun stood up, tore off the note paper with words on it, and went to the window.
When he got to the window, Qin Lun was surprised to find that his guest room happened to be on the side of the castle facing away from the Maya forest, and the outer wall of the castle below the window was connected to a cliff standing at a ninety-degree angle.
At this time, the sky had already dimmed, and the darkness below the cliff seemed too thick to be resolved. The cold wind outside the window was blowing towards Qin Lun's face with thick moisture, and some water droplets splashed on Qin Lun's face, making him feel a chill.
"Is it raining?" Qin Lun wiped his face, tore the sticky note in his palm into several pieces, and threw it off the cliff.
In just over ten seconds after he closed the window, the lonely raindrops outside the room turned into a torrential rain. The rain and cold wind hit the wooden windows, as if there was a rhythmic knock on the door.
"Bang bang bang!" There was a real knock on the door on the other side of the room, but combined with the darkness seen on the cliff outside the window and the violent wind and rain just now, it made Qin Lun tremble slightly inexplicably.
"Doctor Stan, the dinner party is ready, Your Excellency the Baron asked me to invite you to the table!" The old butler Jason's voice came from outside the door.
"I'll come out right away!" Qin Lun's eyes flashed, he glanced back at the medicine box in the corner, then turned and walked towards the door.
Behind Qin Lun, the closed windows trembled slightly under the wind and rain. Rainwater slowly seeped in along the window frame, leaving a water stain on the window sill.
"Crack!" There was a bolt of lightning in the wind and rain outside the window, illuminating the already empty guest room. In the flash of lightning, a strange palm print appeared on the water stain on the window sill.
…
Qin Lun followed the old butler into the dining room of Albert Castle. The dining room was very large, with a long dining table in the center and several maids standing by the wall.
Several members of the Albert family were already present at the dinner table. When they saw Qin Lun coming in, Baron Thomas Albert, who was sitting at the head seat, nodded to him, and the old butler led him to sit at the first place on the baron's left.
Opposite Qin Lun, sat a blond young man with a face resembling a baron. The young man was in his twenties, with a strong physique and an aggressive heroic look. He only wore a V-neck white shirt on his upper body, and he was not wearing a formal suit, looking a bit wild and unruly.
On the young man's left hand was Laura Albert whom Qin Lun had met once. Although Laura was still wearing the whalebone skirt, she had taken off her veil, revealing a quiet and serene oval face. As he expected, this girl with a sweet and soft voice was indeed a standard beauty.
Opposite Laura, also on Qin Lun's left, sat a seven or eight-year-old girl. The girl was wearing a princess dress, with soft golden curly hair, fair complexion, delicate as water, and looked like a beautiful Barbie doll. At this time, she was staring at the strange young man beside her with wide beautiful eyes with blue pupils.
Looking at the girl's chubby face, Qin Lun suddenly thought of the little bastard who should still be in the Moonlight Forest, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch the tender flesh on the girl's face, and gave her a friendly smile.
The little girl didn't expect to be attacked suddenly by Qin Lun at all, she stared wide-eyed and stood there in a daze at a loss.
"Hehe, it looks like our Doctor Stan likes little Elizabeth very much!" The old baron sitting in the main seat let out a burst of hearty laughter.
"Please forgive my offense, Miss Elizabeth!" Qin Lun looked at the young beauty with a smile. Although he was apologizing, everyone in the restaurant could not feel his sincerity.
"I hate this body that hasn't grown up. Everyone treats me like a child!" Little Elizabeth finally came back to her senses, glared at Qin Lun, and angrily poked the steak in front of her with a knife and fork.
The little guy's vicious movements and babyish voice made everyone in the restaurant laugh.
Holding the wine glass, Qin Lun slowly looked at the people at the table. After a small episode between him and Elizabeth, the distance between the members of the Albert family and him was shortened a lot, and the orderly meal was interspersed with friendly conversations.
"Doctor Stan, forgive me! In the town square, did you really take out the infected organs of the townsman and heal him?" Halfway through the meal, the blond young man opposite Qin Lun finally entered up the topic.
Another question about surgery! Qin Lun frowned slightly. Whether it was Laura or the baron's son, Bonny Albert, they both took the initiative to avoid talking about the suspicious "potion", and only questioned the most common surgical operation.
Could it be that he had neglected something, or... Qin Lun put down his wine glass with a twinkle in his eyes!
"The townsman was only treated in a timely manner. He was infected with that strange disease for a short period of time, and the diseased parts of his body were all concentrated in one place, so he was saved!" Qin Lun said carefully, "In addition, there is an ancestral disease in my family. The secret medicine seems to have a little special effect on suppressing this disease... "
Listening to Qin Lun's vague explanation, the Albert family looked puzzled and looked at each other.
"Thank you Baron for your hospitality. I will continue to do my best to serve every townsman in Odia. I don't know what orders the Baron has?" Qin Lun changed his mind, wiped his mouth, stood up and asked with a smile .
"Well... you just arrived at the castle today, and it's getting late, let's talk about it tomorrow!" The old baron hesitated to speak, glanced in Qin Lun's direction, and replied with a smile, "If you don't want to rest yet , you can look around the castle. The scenery here is very good, and you can see the whole town of Odia from the height of the castle."
