Thank you for coming to the two brothers' monthly tickets! Xiaochen didn't want to report, so she had to work hard to code. By the way, she had the cheek to ask for a subscription
The fire in the direction of the square dazzled Dr. Shiloh's eyes. He sighed, lifted some firewood from the warehouse and went to the house. Entering the room, the doctor closed the door with his feet, blocking the cold wind outside.
The town has been under martial law for several days, and since the outsiders came to the town, pavalic has changed dramatically. Overnight, Hunter union chairman Fred was imprisoned, mayor Mensa and the guard were killed, and the town changed ownership overnight. The mayor's throne falls into the hands of Sharon, the chairman of the chamber of Commerce. However, everyone knows that Sharon is just a dog under the hands of those outsiders. It's not right for him to be the mayor.
However, under the powerful force of thousands of soldiers, no one dares to oppose it.
Fortunately, the outsiders did not make any moves to harass the citizens after issuing the order of martial law and curfew through the puppet mayor of Sharon. Most of the troops they brought stayed in the snow plain to the west of the town. In recent days, they retreated into the silver frost forest. They didn't know what to hide. This caused a lot of discussion in the town, and Dr. Shiloh heard several rumors.
Dr. Shiloh is one of the few doctors in the town. His medical skills are not so good, and the patients who come to him for diagnosis usually suffer from minor diseases and pains. But Dr. Shiloh has a good temper, a warm personality, and is willing to help people. This makes him very popular in the small town, so his small clinic can survive.
But the recent martial law has made Dr. Shiloh's income a bit tight. If it goes on like this, he will soon have no money to buy food. But at home, there is still a wife and three children to support. Dr. Shiloh even considered whether to borrow money from neighbors and friends to buy food and water. The cold winter is still very long, but I don't know how long it will last in the small town.
In this seemingly endless waiting, something happened today that surprised Dr. Shiloh and other residents of the town.
Two messengers were sent from the city of bides, and it is said that they came for parvallics.
When Dr. Shiloh put the firewood by the fireplace, he saw his child lying outside the window looking in the direction of the square.
"Mary, let them down." Dr. Shiloh called to the kitchen.
His wife, Mary, a chubby woman, came out of the kitchen. Mary said with a gentle smile to her husband, "leave them alone, my dear. They're just curious. Is there enough firewood? If it's not enough, I'll cut some back tomorrow. "
The doctor's daily job is to circle around the clinic, and his wife Mary takes care of some trivial work at home. Mary hasn't had an easy time these years. The doctor remembered that when she married herself, Mary was a green girl. But now, her hands have already given birth to calluses.
Dr. Shiloh shook his head and said, "no, if there is not enough firewood, I will go and chop some back myself. Anyway, the clinic can't be opened recently, so I'm staying. "
He added: "you'd better let the children down. I always think what's going on in the town today is not simple. Don't cause unnecessary trouble."
Mary nodded and went to the window to pull the children away. Dr. Shiloh threw the firewood into the fireplace one by one. He scattered the firewood as much as he could, so that there was enough space between them for the wood to ignite completely, so as to provide enough heating for the house. The fire leaped, like the light from the square. The messengers of the city of bides were attending the banquet held by Sharon for them in the square. Dr. Shiloh listened to the people coming from the square and said that it was a tall and terrible monster.
The doctor's mind was flying, and a spark of inspiration burst in his mind. Dr. Shiloh picked up a piece of firewood, but did not throw it into the fireplace. It suddenly occurred to him that the reason why outsiders stayed in parvallice was because of the city of bides?
Just at this time, the door was knocked. Shiloh's heart beat heavily for no reason, and his inexplicable panic almost made him want to escape from the back door. But when he saw the frightened wife and the confused children, Dr. Shiloh took a deep breath and walked towards the door.
"Who?" Cried Dr. Shiloh.
There was an old voice outside the door: "Dr. Shiloh? This is rob. Will you open the door, please
Through the curtain, Dr. Shiloh saw the figure outside the door, and knew that rob was not the only one. And this rob, Shiloh is no stranger. He is the manager and housekeeper of Sharon's Owl business. Since rob came to the door, something big must have happened.
However, Shiloh just wanted to finish the whole life. After all, he knows that for ordinary people like him, it is not necessarily a good thing that so-called big things happen to him.
The door opened. Outside, old rob came in. Behind old rob were several fierce soldiers. These soldiers had no expression on their faces, but their eyes were full of moriran's intention to kill. Shiloh knew that these people were troops brought by outsiders, and pavalic's guards were neither as strong as they were, nor as murderous as they were in their bones."What's the matter? Mr. rob Dr. Shiloh asked as quietly as he could.
Old rob grinned and said, "Congratulations, Dr. Shiloh. Something happened in the city of bides, our old neighbor. It was a disease. The neighbors want us to send a doctor to them. Mr. Sharon has chosen you. This time, you represent our whole parvallice. What a glory. "
"No Mary said in horror, "why Shiloh, Mr. rob. Please tell Mr. Sharon that, in terms of medical skills, the skills of doctors Jess and madeira are still superior to those of my husband. They are more suitable candidates! "
"Ma'am, I'm just in charge of the message. As for why, it's not what I can know. " Old rob nodded to Mary and then said to Dr. Shiloh, "doctor, get ready. And, in honor of Dr. Shiloh. Your wife and your children will be taken care of by Mr. Sharon during the days when you go to the city of bides. You don't have to worry about their food and clothing at all. "
On hearing this, Shiloh changed his color and said, "Mr. rob, I've got Mr. Sharon's kindness. As for the food and clothing of Mary and the children, I don't think Mr. Sharon needs to worry about it. They can live well by themselves. "
Old Rob's face changed, and he snorted coldly, "Dr. Shiloh, you just have to do what Mr. Sharon wants. As for what to do, I don't think you need to tell me. "
Then old rob winked at the soldiers behind him. Several soldiers immediately tightened their rifles and pushed Shiloh with the muzzle. So in the children's panic calls, the Shiloh family didn't even have time to eat dinner, so they were "invited" out of the warm house and took the car to Sharon's villa.
Mary and the children are taken away by Sharon's servants, while Dr. Shiloh follows old rob to Sharon's study. Old rob knocked on the door, but there was a woman's voice inside: "come in."
Old rob opened the door and asked Dr. Shiloh in. Up to now, Dr. Shiloh has no choice but to walk into the study. But now there is a beautiful woman sitting in the position of Sharon. The woman gives people a kind of capable breath and a touch of dignity. This kind of dignity is a trait possessed by talents who have been in the top position for many years. So Hilo knew that this woman was the boss behind Sharon.
Old rob said respectfully to the woman, "Dear Miss Beyonce, I've brought you the person you want."
The woman named Beyonce nodded and waved old rob back. At this time, Shiloh found that on the sofa on the other side of the study, a young man with an Asian face was quietly reading a book. Perhaps out of professional sensitivity, Shiloh smelled a faint smell of blood on this man. Shiloh's face became ugly. It was usually the body that had just been killed, or the person whose hands were covered with blood.
The man who made Shiloh feel terrible had such a calm expression when he was reading, which made Shiloh think that he must have such a calm face when he was killing people.
Nothing is more terrible than a calm killer.
A light cough makes Shiloh turn her attention away from zero and fall on the young woman who is playing with a golden pen.
Beyonce said faintly, "Dr. Shiloh, you should know why you are called here. Yes, because you need to go to the city of bides to see what's wrong with our neighbors. I'm here to see you so that you can persuade our good neighbor to transfer the patient to parvallich by any means
"You are a good doctor, a good husband and a good father. I don't think you will refuse my request. Is that right? "
Dr. Shiloh said emphatically, "dear lady, I'll listen to you whatever you want me to do. I just want you to let Mary and my children go
Beyonce said with a smile, "you can rest assured that they will live better here than anyone else in the town. As long as I see the patients from the city of bides arrive in parvallice, they can not only go home, but also get a sum of money. A sum of money that will last them a long time. "
In the face of absolute power, the will of ordinary people, no matter how strong, can not change the status quo. Like Dr. Shiloh, in fact, he didn't hold any hope, and Beyonce's commitment to him was beyond his expectation. If it's Sharon's, Shiloh believes she'll have to do what he wants, but she won't get any benefit.
Soon, Shiloh went down and prepared for tomorrow's departure. Beyonce stretched out and looked at zero, who was still reading quietly. She asked, "do you know why I chose Shiloh?"
"Isn't it obvious? As you have said, he is a good man. " I don't go back to the tunnel at all.
With a smile, Beyonce said, "you're angry."
"No. I just can't understand why the beautiful side of human nature determines its value of being used or even sacrificed. In other words, this era does not need kindness. Does everyone have to give up the good and follow the evil in order to live"You don't seem to agree with me. But as you know, it will take a lot of trouble to use other methods. Now, there is no time in the city of bides, neither do we. "
Zero closed the book, looked at Beyonce and said calmly, "yes, I know. So I'm not for it, but I'm not against it. "
Beyonce nodded, "because it's up to me, not you, to decide."
"So my goal is stronger." Zero stood up and walked towards the gate: "only when I also become the superior, can I have the right to decide, right?"
When the door closed, there was only Beyonce in the study. Beyonce thought about it, laughed, shook her head and said, "zero, you're not all right. It's not that this era doesn't need goodness, but it needs more strength to hold up goodness than to hold up evil. And for now, I don't have that power, and neither do you. "
In one room of the villa, the light was dim. Dr. Shiloh looked at the children who fell asleep after eating and drinking, and gently kissed them one by one on their young faces. This may be the last time he kisses these lovely children. As soon as he goes tomorrow, even Dr. Shiloh knows that the chance of coming back is pitiful. The guess became a fact. The outsider really hit the idea of the city of bides, and then pushed it. The noble woman and others were interested in the rich black gold in the city of bides.
The conflict of interests.
It's a game between the superiors, but for ordinary people, it's a game of life and death. Like Dr. Shiloh at the moment, he didn't want to leave, but he couldn't help it. Mary crouched behind him, crying in silence, and the suppressed sadness flowed in the small room.
"Why don't we run away." After crying, Mary whispered.
"Don't be silly, we can't get out," Dr. Shiloh said with a gentle smile, holding his wife. Just do as they say. If I don't come back, you can continue to live and live better than you do now. "
Mary shook her head and tried to say something, but Dr. Shiloh put her hand in her mouth and said, "promise me, Mary. No matter what happens, even for our children. You should also take them to live hard, child, that is our future
Mary's eyes welled up with tears again, but this time, she used all her strength to focus on her head.
The next day, in the early morning, Dr. Shiloh walked out of Sharon's villa. A six legged horse is ready for Dr. Shiloh. It will be the doctor's mount to the city of bides. The giant husian had been walking impatiently back and forth at the gate. He wanted to catch the little human doctor and rush back to the city of bides. But husian knew that the thin body of ordinary human could not stand his running all the way, so he only hoped that the strange horse could run fast enough.
Shiloh was sent to the door by Sharon and others, which was the highest standard farewell ceremony in the town. Shiloh has already seen Huo Xian as a monster. If he is normal, he must be scared to death by Huo Xian's combination with lobster. But now, he is very calm.
He even turned around, waved to his wife and children on the edge of the corridor, and rode on a six legged horse with the help of his servants.
A quarter of an hour later, Dr. Shiloh left the town and followed Huo into the vast snow. He looked back and took a deep look at the outline of the town behind him, hoping to engrave it in his heart. Because doctors know that they may not be able to come back.
