The matter of the Mutual Aid Society was just a small interlude, but Takatsuki was not soone who did good deeds without leaving a na, or rather, he did good deeds either for self-satisfaction or to let others know.
After having lunch with Seele at their usual spot, Takatsuki brought Seele through [Close at Hand Yet Worlds Apart] to the entrance of Natasha's clinic.
During this ti, Big Seele didn't show up, likely busy with sothing else.
"Doctor Natasha, we're back."
No matter when they ca, Natasha was always busy, though this ti she seed to be sewing a plush toy rather than attending to patients.
"Doctor Natasha can make toys too?"
"It's a skill I picked up when I ran an orphanage in Rivet Town. After all, without toys, those children wouldn't sleep well."
Natasha replied with a smile, her hands not pausing for a mont.
Although it was only a semi-finished product, the toy's exquisite craftsmanship was no less than items sold in stores. If she weren't a doctor, Natasha could certainly open a toy shop.
But originally...
"So Doctor Natasha used to run an orphanage?"
Natasha nodded: "Yes, in Rivet Town, the tallest building there was the orphanage. Unfortunately, ever since Rivet Town fell, the orphanage naturally closed down."
"Did you co over suddenly for sothing?"
"Oh, regarding that special dicine, we've already resolved it."
As soon as Takatsuki finished speaking, Natasha stopped the movents she hadn't paused even while talking.
"Resolved? You weren't injured, were you?"
"No, those Fragntum monsters can't hurt , or rather, they can't even get close to ."
Hearing Takatsuki's words, Natasha stared at Takatsuki and Seele, observing them for a mont before sighing in relief: "Don't do such risky things in the future. The monsters on the outskirts of the Fragntum are weaker, but there are stronger ones in the depths."
"But thank you all the sa. How did you resolve it?"
"I lured the Fragntum creatures to their doorstep, scared them away with the monsters, then went in and burned all the dicine."
Hearing Takatsuki's words, Natasha sighed: "That's good too. After being scared by Fragntum creatures, they probably won't do such dangerous things again."
Takatsuki nodded, he had the sa thought.
"And this way, they won't bla Doctor Natasha, after all, it was the Fragntum creatures that attacked them."
"That doesn't matter, but this matter was still too risky. Next ti, please don't..."
Mid-sentence, Natasha's clinic door was suddenly pushed open.
"Doctor Natasha! Co help! The Wanderers and the miners are clashing, many people are injured."
An unfamiliar male miner, panting, shouted loudly at the doorway.
"What!?"
Natasha stood up abruptly, putting down the doll in her hand.
"I'm sorry, let's talk next ti. Sothing happened at the Great Mine."
Natasha apologized to Takatsuki and Seele with so regret.
"It's fine, but let us help too. Doctor Natasha, you can't handle it all by yourself, can you?"
Natasha hesitated: "Then I'll trouble you."
"No trouble."
When the four of them arrived at the Great Mine, they saw a large crowd confronting each other, and many injured, fallen, and even unconscious people lay on the ground.
"Natasha, you're here."
Seeing the four of them approach, a middle-aged man in his forties with a full beard walked over.
"Oleg, how's the situation?"
Oleg shook his head: "The situation isn't optimistic. The Wanderers have blocked the passage with obstacles, not letting the miners leave. Several clashes have already broken out, thankfully no one has died."
"Sigh, gather all the injured. I'll help treat them."
Natasha sighed helplessly: "What caused this conflict?"
"Because a Wanderer discovered a large mineral vein and told Antonina's mining team about it. So other Wanderers were displeased, they felt that mineral vein should belong to the Wanderers, so they attacked the mining team and plundered supplies."
"I see, then I can't do anything about that. I can only treat the injured."
Oleg nodded: "Leave this matter to us. We will transport the injured out, and then we'll rely on you."
After a brief conversation, Natasha led Takatsuki and Seele to an open space, where many miners were already lying, wailing.
"Oh no, with so many injured, I don't have enough dical supplies."
Natasha looked at the injured people scattered everywhere, then at her own dical bag, which was clearly insufficient for so many casualties.
"Takatsuki, could I trouble you to go to my clinic and get so dical supplies?"
Looking at the injured everywhere, Takatsuki shook his head: "No need for such trouble."
There was still so distance from here to Natasha's clinic; it would take at least tens of minutes for a round trip, but if Takatsuki used his abilities...
Natasha saw a passage open before her, and at the other end of the passage was... her own clinic.
"This is..."
"As you can see, but I can't go through, otherwise the passage will close. I'll have to trouble Doctor Natasha to find soone else to help."
Doctor Natasha nodded. She glanced at Seele, but rembering that Takatsuki and Seele had never been seen apart, she didn't say anything about asking Seele for help. She took a few miners who were helping with the injured through the passage into the clinic, and soon returned carrying a large pile of alcohol, bandages, and painkillers.
The rest was much simpler.
Takatsuki also knew so dical skills, helping Natasha to treat the injured separately.
"Angie, I need so clean water."
Natasha said to a nearby miner who was helping, while attending to an injured person.
"Ah, Doctor Natasha, we only have drinking water left here, no more."
Just as the two were in a difficult situation, Takatsuki sighed helplessly. It seed he would have to expose a bit too much today, but this place was not like Orario, which would be noticed by the gods. Takatsuki had observed for a while and found that although his strength couldn't be said to allow him to walk sideways, he also didn't need to be so timid.
"I'll do it. Help find a clean bucket or basin."
Angie looked at Takatsuki in surprise for a mont, then, urged by Natasha, went to find a basin.
When she returned, she saw Takatsuki holding a kettle.
As the kettle in his hand tilted, a continuous stream of water flowed out, quickly filling half the basin.
"Alright, if you need more, just co find ."
