Chapter 196 A Rooster Would Lay Eggs

When the fire burned, Nicholas covered Charlotte's eyes.

Charlotte whispered, "What are you doing?"

Nicholas replied, "I'm afraid to see you cry.”

Charlotte said, “Then you can cover your own eyes.”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Nicholas didn’t speak anymore. He rubbed Charlotte's hair and said, "Charlotte, just cry if you want to. No one will laugh at you." As soon as he finished speaking, he felt his hand wet.

Nicholas’s heart skipped a beat. Then he hugged Charlotte into his arms but didn't know how to comfort her. He had never comforted a girl, and Charlotte was not like other girls crying because of candy or toys.

She was crying for these dozens of lives.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and medical staff were on the side to strictly control the fire.

Beckham felt very uncomfortable too and persuaded Charlotte. “You've been busy all day. Go back and rest. The fire is expected to burn until the next morning."

Willow was also frightened by the fire and got goosebumps. "Good grief! Why not take the bodies to the crematorium? Is burning them right here in line with the rules?"

Beckham replied patiently, "The crematorium in ProdanTown also has piles of dead bodies just like the hospital. If the corpses keep decaying here, it will cause even greater trouble."

Willow rubbed her arms and said softly, "But I'm afraid... Beckham, aren't you afraid?" Beckham said, "I'm okay. Girls are more afraid of these, so go back to bed early.” Seeing that Beckham didn't want to talk to her anymore, Willow snorted angrily and glared at Charlotte. Charlotte was a little puzzled.

Charlotte swiped away her tears and was taken back to the room by Nicholas. He didn't stay long because it was the room for two girls and he left soon.

Madison glanced at Charlotte and asked, “Are you scared?” Charlotte didn't expect Madison to take the initiative to talk to her and said, "A little bit."

Madison didn’t say anything, but a touch of disdain flickered in her eyes. Before Charlotte could look carefully, Madison's eyes were full of calmness as usual

Charlotte lowered her head and looked at the medical book in her hand She thought, "It seems that Waylon was wrong. Madison may also treat others like this, but I'm sure she really dislikes me.”

Charlotte had always been sensitive to people's emotions. When she first met Madison, she felt that Madison didn’t like her. Charlotte thought Waylon repeatedly told her not to care about it, probably because he knew this.

Charlotte didn't like to make herself unhappy. She thought, "Never mind! We will still be together for a few days, and we probably won't meet each other again in the future. If Madison doesn't like me, I can’t help it. Anyway. I’m not cash, and not everyone must like me."

With the light on, Charlotte read the book for a while but still didn't find anything. When she was about to fall asleep, she accidentally knocked down another book on the cabinet.

The ancient medical book had existed for many generations, and the pages had become yellow. It seemed to fall apart at any time when it was spread out on the ground

Charlotte felt distressed. She hurriedly got out of bed to pick it up. Just as she touched the page with her fingertip, her gaze fixed

One of the two open pages caught Charlotte's eye. "For the disease accompanied by high fever, it cannot be cured with ordinary herbs or medicine, and the infected people will die within seven days...”

Charlotte's eyes lit up.

She thought, "This is exactly the symptom of Virus-7602! I'm so lucky!"

Charlotte hurriedly picked up the book and looked at it carefully, but then found stat it was just an incomplete medica recipe copied by the ancestors of tne Lopez family: The raedicinal herbs that weredsed to cure patients were recorded incémplete y. Even so, she) Was very happy. After all, if Virus-7602 had appeared before, then this medical recipe would definitely be helpful!

Charlotte first wrote down the medicinal herbs in the book and then tried to Gomplete the ancient recipe according to several other ~ medicine books. She devoted herself to it, ane. when she came downto earth tit was already dawn. She had figuréd out several different recipes. She was not sure if they were useful, so she planned to continue her work tonight. She had to close the book first, lie on the bed, and sleep for a while.

It was another busy day. Everly had a high fever last night and didn't sleep all night. Therefore, when she saw Charlotte, she was listless and off- color. Charlotte touched her face, gave her a piece of candy, and softly said, "Good girl, I will still give you candy tomorrow.”

Everly nodded and thanked Charlotte. Charlotte watched her eat the candy before leaving

All the uninfected people in the village were sent away. When they left. they cried as they said goodbye to their infected families, knowing they might never see them again. Nicholas didn't let Charlotte go and watch the scene.

After the uninfected people were sent away, Charlotte and the others' work was easier. After dinner, Charlotte directly came into the room to study the medical recipes. Finally, she eliminated some recipes and only two left.

Only two or three herbs in the two medical recipes were different. Charlotte decided to try both of them, but now most people didn't trust traditional medicine, and there were very few places to sell herbs. Now if she wanted to get the medicinal herbs, she must go downtown

During breakfast the next day, Charlotte told Beckham that she would go downtown. Before Beckham could speak, Victoria said in a voice dripping with sarcasm, "Purchasing medicinal herbs? I think you actually want to run away, right? The environment here is bad and the conditions are harsh, so you can't stand it anymore, right?"

Charlotte glanced at Victoria and said, "If I couldn't stand the harsh conditions, I wouldn't have come in the first place.”

Victoria sneered, "What if you're here because you want a good reputation? As a result, you can’t endure hardship and now want to leave here. I have seen a lot of people like you.”

Indeed, there were many such people. As soon as Victoria said this, many people immediately looked at Charlotte with condemnation.

Charlotte said to Beckham, "Beckham, don’t worry. I will be back before tonight."

Most people were volunteers recruited by the association, so it stood to reason that the association had no right to restrain them frome leaving or staying. Victoria obviatisly put her epfinger in Charlotte's own pie, and’ Beckham was not satisfied with \istoria’ s words. He said to” Charlotte gently, "The road is rough and bad. Just be careful."

Charlotte nodded and left with Nicholas and Madison.

Looking at their figures, Victoria snorted coldly, "A medical recipe? Humph! I have long said that traditional medicine was unreliable and traditional doctors were all liars, but Beckham didn't believe it and insisted on recruiting them in."

Willow narrowed her eyes and asked Victoria in a low voice, "Victoria, do you think she can really develop a medical recipe for working against Virus- 7602?"

Victoria sneered, "Willow, are you crazy? Just her? She's just a freshman. Even experts have no way. Do you think she has? You might as well say that a rooster would lay eggs!"

Willow whispered, "I hope she really has that ability.” "What?" Victoria didn’t understand.

Willow didn't explain it to Victoria but said, “Next, let's keep an eye on Charlotte."
