Chapter 21 The Eye of God (1)
In the early morning, the sun naturally shone on the deep waters of Petersburg. What woke the prisoners was the crisp sound of metal clanging in the production area, announcing the start of a new day of work and life.
Gazing at Siegwen's peaceful sleeping face, Mu Feng gently pinched her cheek, waking the little one from her slumber.
With sleepy eyes, Siegwen sat up with her messy light blue short hair, raised her little hands to rub her ruby-like eyes, and her pink and blue nightgown was loosely draped over her little shoulders. She was as cute as a little angel who had been lost to earth.
Noticing Mu Feng's action, Siegwen affectionately rubbed her cheek against Mu Feng's palm and gave him a sweet smile as she said good morning.
Good morning, Brother Mufeng. Did you sleep well?
"Washing your face with warm water in the morning can reduce skin irritation."
Mu Feng was already used to the little guy's ubiquitous health tips. After washing up with warm water, the two of them began to enjoy the breakfast that Mu Feng had brought from the coffee shop.
After breakfast, Mu Feng gently draped a white trench coat over Siegwen's shoulders and covered the little girl's distinctive ears with the soft brim of the hat to prevent Siegwen's identity as Melusin from being exposed and causing unnecessary trouble.
Once everything was ready, Mu Feng and Xigewen left the prison area together and headed towards the production area, ready to begin their work. Of course, their task was not the usual smelting, but something else entirely.
As a living base for a large number of prisoners, it is inevitable that prisoners will suffer from headaches, fevers, or accidental injuries. In addition, there are injuries caused by underground boxing matches in the underground boxing arena, so the medical resources of Mero Petersburg are inevitably strained.
Prior to this, Melo Petersburg did not have permanent medical staff. Usually, prisoners with some medical knowledge would temporarily fill the gaps, and after the prisoners completed their sentences and left, the medical station would be left in an awkward situation of being vacant.
This vicious cycle has led to a less than optimistic state of health among the staff in Melo Petersburg.
Therefore, the arrival of the highly skilled physician Siegwen can be said to have alleviated the urgent crisis in Melo Petersburg.
The warden immediately waved his hand, exempting Siegwen and Mufeng from labor in the production area, and arranged for the two to focus on building their own private medical room in Mello Petersburg.
……
Mello Petersburg, production area.
Mu Feng fell into deep thought as he faced the "medical room" filled with all sorts of clutter.
To be fair, the medicine supply in Melo Petersburg was quite complete, so much so that cardboard boxes filled with various medicines were piled up to the roof, almost blocking out the few empty hospital beds.
If it weren't for the fact that a prisoner dressed as a boxer was clutching his bleeding wound while defiantly holding a bottle of disinfectant, ready to down it in one gulp, Mu Feng would probably have thought that the prisoners of Mero Petersburg had some kind of fine tradition of not leaving the front lines with minor injuries.
silence.
Silence reigns in Petersburg tonight.
So it's not that there's an overabundance of medical resources in Mayburg, but rather that every time the prisoners come to get their medication, it's a huge gamble, my friend.
Even the seasoned five-star player next door, Mr. Qing, had to admit defeat. In poker, the worst that could happen is that the game is restarted and a shortcut is taken, or at worst, there's the big spender, Mr. Hua, to save the day.
The prisoners in Mero Petersburg were different. Every time they went to get medicine, it was like a gamble that they could only do once in their lives. If they made the wrong choice, they might have to take a shortcut in life.
"You can't drink it."
After stopping the man who was about to guzzle industrial alcohol, Siegwen reached out and rummaged through a pile of cardboard boxes for a while, handing the injured boxer a bottle of anti-inflammatory and analgesic medicine, and patiently giving him some instructions on how to rest and recover.
Please refrain from strenuous exercise until you are fully recovered.
With her hands on her hips, Siegwen displayed the seriousness of a doctor as she earnestly offered medical advice to her patient.
The injured prisoner left the infirmary with profuse thanks. Soon, the news that a little doctor had arrived in Mero Petersburg spread quickly, and many prisoners who had been ill for a long time came to this small infirmary for treatment.
As patients gradually poured into the small medical room, Higewen quickly became busy.
The young nurses skillfully received patients, prescribed medications, and handled their difficult and complicated ailments with ease; Mu Feng temporarily acted as Xigewen's assistant, taking on the tasks of receiving medications and maintaining order.
As the sun set and the mechanical bells in the production area signaled the end of the day's work, the influx of prisoners gradually began to decrease.
As the last patient left, clutching the prepared medicine and expressing his gratitude, the deep night had already enveloped the world on the water. The mechanical behemoths in the production area had fallen asleep, leaving only the old kerosene lamps emitting a soft, orange glow.
Mu Feng gently brushed aside Xigewen's slightly messy hair, and lightly wiped the sweat from her forehead with a clean white towel. He asked the little one with some concern if she was a bit too tired.
After all, Siegwen had been seeing hundreds of patients non-stop all day, and even lunch and dinner were just a few biscuits that Mu Feng had brought her.
"Hmm...no, but Siegwen is very happy."
"If I really have to say... um..."
"It's like taking care of a cute little animal."
After packing up the first-aid kit, Siegwen gently leaned against Mu Feng's chest, tilting her head back and dangling her legs, her beautiful ruby eyes sparkling with tenderness.
Mu Feng pinched Xigewen's cheek helplessly, put his arm around Xigewen's slender legs, and carried the somewhat tired nurse into his arms, walking towards the prison area.
Hisewen nestled softly into Mufeng's arms, quietly listening to his heartbeat.
The crisp sound of footsteps was particularly clear in the night in Melo Petersburg, waking up several drowsy guards.
The little guy's light red eyes blinked as he stared at Mu Feng, his little hands, gloved in white, clasped together, revealing a smile that was both obedient and adorable, yet also tinged with a hint of mischief.
"Where did you secretly stick stickers this time?"
"No, Xigewen didn't put any stickers on Mufeng's back."
"Clap."
A pink and blue sticker with a cute needle tip was gently stuck on the little culprit's forehead, causing the little guy to turn his head away and pout.
"Brother Mufeng, you're bad."
"Bad guys will secretly eat the snacks from your midnight snack."
In the quiet night, under the soft orange light of the lights in Mero Petersburg, the boy holding the little Melosin walked further and further away, his figure gradually disappearing into the long pipes of the prison area.
