Flandre Scarlet watched the other person leave before picking up the appointnt letter and scratching her head.
"Flandre has a job?
But isn't Flandre still a minor!
I'll ask Big Sister Beatrice tomorrow if minors are allowed to work!"
She set the appointnt letter aside and walked over to the book she had been reading earlier, picking it up and sitting on the sofa to continue reading.
After a while, a ssage ca from Alina.
[Flandre, are you asleep yet?]
[Not yet! Is sothing the matter, Big Sister Alina?]
[I'm not disturbing you then, am I?]
[Of course not, Flandre is reading a book!]
[Reading? Flandre, you successfully entered Lungn!]
[Yes, yes, Flandre got in yesterday...]
Flandre Scarlet recounted everything that had happened from entering the city yesterday until today.
[I didn't expect Flandre Scarlet to have made new friends already, that's wonderful.]
Hearing that Flandre Scarlet had beco friends with a woman nad Beatrice, Alina was sincerely happy for her.
Alina then told Flandre Scarlet about the situation over the past two days, such as how one patient's condition was actually very dangerous, but they hadn't noticed at all. When the Rhodes Island doctors screened the person, they were shocked and imdiately sent them to the ergency room.
Also, most of the children received preferential treatnt, becoming the first batch to be examined and treated.
A few adults were dissatisfied and tried to cause trouble, but they were caught by mbers of the Yeti Squad, beaten up, and then exiled.
After all, everyone believed that children are the hope for the future, yet these people could be shaless enough to act that way for their own sake.
One must know that many elderly Infected insisted on staying at the back of the line no matter how the Rhodes Island doctors tried to persuade them, because they knew they wouldn't live much longer even if they were cured.
It was better to leave these dicines for others who needed them more.
"Mhm, because Flandre is a minor, she also received preferential treatnt at the castle!" Although Flandre didn't know what 'hope' was, she expressed that it was the sa for her before; as long as she didn't break her sister's rules, everyone would love Flandre very much.
[By the way, is Lungn really prosperous?]
Alina asked after chatting for a while.
[Flandre doesn't know, because I haven't been to many places, but Lungn is really huge, you can't even see the end of it. How does such a big city even move!]
Flandre asked curiously.
[I don't know either, but I rember reading that it's controlled by Originium power reactors.]
[Originium is truly a miraculous thing. It grows on people, on animals, on plants, and can even be dug out of the ground.]
[Everyone is afraid of it, yet no one can live without it.]
[So has no one considered other energy sources?]
Flandre asked curiously.
[Of course they have—wind, water, and fire—but in the end, Originium energy was what remained.]
[Even though it's dangerous, it's effective enough, and as long as Catastrophes continue to occur, Originium will be produced continuously.]
[Although this newly produced Originium is too active and needs decades or even centuries of dormancy before it can beco usable energy.]
[But because this stuff will only increase if you don't use it, there's no choice. Whether it's to consu it or because of the costs of mining and usage, everyone is forced to make it their primary energy source.]
Alina's tone was sowhat helpless.
It seed that apart from the most primitive way of starting a fire to cook, modern life everywhere was inseparable from Originium.
Even for these Rhodes Island doctors treating oripathy, the energy used in their equipnt was still Originium. Was this not a form of irony?
[Speaking of which, if you have books to read there, could you help find a few and read them to ?] Alina had a sudden idea.
[Sure! Just say what books you need, Alina. I'll go look in the study. If they're here, I can read them to you now; if not, I'll go ask that Governor Wei for them tomorrow.]
Flandre Scarlet said there was no problem. She could read any book anyway, and reading alone was no different from reading to soone else.
Moreover, the latter gave her a sense of déjà vu, reminding her of when her sister used to tell her stories when she wanted to sleep. It was very interesting.
Of course, now she was playing the role of the "sister," which Flandre found particularly amusing, and her steps beca light and brisk.
The book Alina was looking for wasn't a novel or literature, but a very rigid reference book. Flandre Scarlet had spotted one of them just as she entered.
Ergency Treatnt for Oripathy, authored by Mr. Blood.
This was also a book that Rhodes Island Operators highly recomnded for the Reunion Movent to study.
It was just that they had already expected the Reunion Movent's conditions to be difficult before coming, but they truly hadn't expected them to be this dire.
As for those doctors, not to ntion their ti was entirely spent on treating patients, they simply had no ti to recite the book for her.
Even if they wanted to, they could only explain the general contents and couldn't recite everything inside verbatim.
The original plan was to wait until they returned to Rhodes Island this ti, and then have the next group of personnel sent for exchange bring so books along.
But now, Flandre Scarlet could help by reading aloud remotely.
Alina only needed to spend so ti with paper and pen to transcribe the words.
Crucially, one advantage of the bloodline transmission was that as long as she didn't intentionally erase the transmission, it wouldn't disappear imdiately and could be reviewed repeatedly. Even if Flandre read quickly, she would have enough ti to write it down.
After picking up the book, she notified Alina that she was ready on her end.
Alina said to give her a few minutes to prepare.
Then, under Talulah's curious gaze, she stood up, grabbed a stack of paper and a pen, and sat down at the table nearby.
[I'm ready.]
After Alina finished speaking, Flandre Scarlet flipped to the first page of the book.
"Are you morizing a book?" Talulah said in surprise, seeing Alina's hand continuously writing out words.
"No, it's Flandre. She is reading this book in Lungn and transmitting the record to ..."
Alina answered while writing.
"Your communication is that simple?" Talulah looked shocked.
"Yes, but the consumption is a bit high. Could you please go cut so tender branches for ?" Alina pointed toward the door.
"Alright!" Seeing this, Talulah didn't disturb her further. Instead, she shouldered a scythe from the side and walked out the door.
Seeing Talulah run out in the middle of the night to cut trees, many Rhodes Island people looked puzzled.
Only Frostnova walked over and asked worriedly,
"What's going on?"
After Talulah explained the reason in a low voice, Frostnova's eyes widened in surprise.
"We are so far from Lungn, and they can still manage real-ti communication!"
"Yeah, I didn't expect it either. The only trouble is that Alina's consumption has increased quite a bit," Talulah replied.
"That bit of consumption is nothing, but will it exhaust her?" Frostnova asked while helping out.
"I'll tell her not to be in such a hurry." Talulah nodded.
As they spoke, the two of them brought the branches into the village.
The Rhodes Island group sitting in the house chatting... soone saw this scene and ca in from outside to relay the news.
"That Leader Talulah and Officer Yelena are so strange. There's so much dried wood in the yard; if they want to start a fire, wouldn't it be better to take it from there? Why go outside to cut new branches? Can those branches even be used for fire?"
"Oh, do you know where they went?" Kaltsit asked the person.
"Oh, it's Ms. Alina's house.
Speaking of Ms. Alina, if it weren't for her Elafia features being too obvious, with those eyes and that hair color, I would've really thought I'd t a relative of Dr. Warfarin and Closure."
The person said while complaining.
The others also nodded one after another. Alina's pair of crimson pupils indeed looked very much like those of Closure from the Engineering Departnt and Dr. Warfarin, who had only recently been 'invited' onto the Rhodes Island landship by Kaltsit.
However, that pair of antlers ruled out the possibility of her being a Sarkaz Blood Demon.
But every ti they stood before her, everyone felt like a delicious little cupcake in her eyes.
This feeling was quite unpleasant.
It was practically more terrifying than facing Dr. Warfarin.
"It just so happens I have sothing to discuss with those few. I'll go over and see the situation. The rest of you should get so rest soon.
The workload here with the Reunion Movent is much larger than we estimated. Don't overexert yourselves."
"Alright, Dr. Kaltsit. No problem, Dr. Kaltsit. You should also take care to protect your own health."
Seeing Dr. Kaltsit stand up, everyone also stood up to prepare to return to their rest.
On the other side, when Kaltsit arrived outside Alina's house, she heard the sounds of conversation inside.
"Alina, how about you take a break first?"
"Yeah, you've already written three chapters. We do need this book, but there's no need to be in such a hurry"
"What, Flandre said there are ten chapters in total, and today's goal is to finish five. Hiss, how about this: you rest and read from the side, and I'll help write a section for you."
"Alright, I'll read and you write."
Kaltsit didn't go in, but stood quietly outside.
Then she heard Alina begin to recite sentences one by one.
And when she heard those sentences, her pupils constricted.
Because these sentences were too familiar. Although she hadn't morized everything in Warfarin's book either,
When she heard the content, she recalled it instantly.
So, the Ms. Alina inside was reciting the contents from Warfarin's Ergency Treatnt for Oripathy.
But during the day, she had interacted with that Alina, and her understanding of the treatnt procedures for most Infected was no different from anyone else's.
If she had really read this book, why would she have managed the Infected here in this current manner?
But if she hadn't read this book, how was she reciting it?
Furthermore, who exactly was the 'Flandre' they were talking about?
She was certain that this person absolutely did not exist on the list of Reunion Movent Infected personnel collected by Rhodes Island over the past two days.
"Lord Kaltsit, what are you doing here?"
