Joan stayed in such a distraught state for a long time, until he was awakened by the cold wind blowing against him.
He settled down, walked like a sleepwalk, unconsciously returned to his house, looked at the ruined ruins, and suddenly remembered to ask his grandfather why his house was destroyed.
Joan turned to look at the way he was going, and didn't want to go back to disturb his grandfather, so he continued to walk through the deserted street and walked to the door of Dr. Kailandil's clinic before stopping.
Joan looked at the window. The faint light made him feel a little relieved, climbed the stairs and knocked on the door.
The door of the room was open, and Kailandier's probe came out. At first sight, he suddenly showed surprise.
"Joan, you are finally back, come in and sit down!"
Joan approached the familiar clinic and took a sip of hot tea from Kailandil, his distracted mood gradually calmed down.
"When did you come back?"
"I arrived home this evening."
"It's good to come back, and accompany Mr. Tell more during the holidays, he has been nagging you."
"Doctor, I came to visit you so late, I actually want to inquire about my grandfather's condition."
Joan put down the teacup and looked at Kairandil with anxiety.
"You tell me the truth, is there a way to cure my grandfather?"
"This……"
Kailandil hesitated for a long time and finally shook his head hard.
"Joan, you have also studied medicine. You really don't need to answer this question. You should know."
"Your grandfather's illness... let alone I have no cure, the great druid of the Algonquin Valley has visited him before, and even Mr. Victor's medical magic cannot completely eradicate his root cause, I still Is there any way?"
Even though he had been thinking about preparations for a long time, when Joan heard his words, it was like hearing the death sentence, still feeling cold, and the world in front of him became very dark.
Kairandil saw his pale face and tears in his eyes, and could not bear to hit him again, but as a doctor, his professional ethics required him to tell the truth.
"Joan, want to open up a little bit, who can be saved from death in life? Your grandfather is more than 60 years old, and he is regarded as a long-lived old man in our town, and he has raised you up. What else does his old man have? Can’t let go of it? Just stay with him more and let him spend this last time with peace of mind."
Joan nodded reluctantly, and then asked Kailandil: "Doctor, what medicine is my grandfather taking? I want to help him buy some by the way."
"Actually, Mr. Thiel doesn't care whether he takes medicine or not. I once wanted to give him some painkillers, but the old man was very stubborn. Not only did he refuse to take medicine, he also proposed to me a very..." Kailandil thought about it. The phrase, "A ridiculous request."
Joan looked up at the doctor and asked calmly, "Does he ask you to help distribute the poison?"
Kailandil changed his face, and nodded gently.
"I refused his request because I had no right to do so unless his guardian also agreed, so this matter can only be discussed after you come back."
"What did my grandfather say?"
"The old man was very angry after hearing my words. He didn't agree that you, a child, could be his guardian. He also said that his life is his own. No one can decide his life or death for him, not even the only relative."
Kairandil stood up with a wry smile, took a small glass vial from the reagent rack, and turned to Joan.
"This is something your grandfather asked me to help him prepare. After taking it, he will fall asleep and leave the world without pain... Now I will give this medicine to you. As for whether to give Mr. Tell, it is up to you Decide for yourself."
Joan held out his trembling hand, took the medicine bottle, and didn't dare to look at it and put it in his pocket. Out of some kind of evasion, he took the initiative to change the subject.
"Doctor, there is one more thing to ask you about my house..."
"You are asking the right person. When your house was burnt down, I happened to be on the scene. Unfortunately, I went one step later. I can't confirm whether the stranger was the stranger."
"Foreigner?" Joan was refreshed. "Who are you referring to? Why did he set fire to my house?"
"This is a long story, but don't worry, just listen to me from the beginning."
Kailandil lit the pipe, took a deep breath, and looked out the window, as if recalling something.
"It was the evening two weeks ago, and it was about this time. I went to your grandfather's house to give him some food. By the way, Mr. Till's condition was not as serious as it is now, and he was barely able to walk on crutches, mentality It’s also much more optimistic than it is today, and he said a lot about you... Hearing, he missed you a lot, even though he didn’t admit it, he was always looking forward to your return."
Joan nodded, expecting the doctor to continue.
"I sat with your grandfather for about half an hour, and left after leaving medicine and food. I suddenly heard a roar on the way down the mountain, and saw a pillar of fire rise up into the sky, but it took me a jump!"
"After a while, I saw that the fire was getting brighter and brighter, and I ran towards the place where it caught fire. When I got there, I found out that it was your house that just happened."
Jo An silently listened to Dr. Kailandier's remarks. Instead of lifting the doubts in his heart, he deepened.
From the doctor's description, the cause of the fire may be a big explosion, but there is no flammable and explosive items stored in his house, so the only explanation is that someone deliberately set fire.
However, why did the other party do this? Could the Qiu family come to the door?
Joan recalled his past experience, and really couldn't think of anyone who had a deep hatred against him, so that such atrocities were committed.
"Doctor, have you seen the arsonist?"
"It's hard to say."
Kailandil knocked on the pipe, as if recalling the situation.
"When I rushed to the scene of the fire, I first saw your house surrounded by blazing flames. At that time, my mind was full of fire fighting, and I didn't notice anyone else nearby until I heard footsteps behind me."
"I glanced back and saw a weird-looking man coming out of the nearby woods. Before that day, I had never seen this man. I suspected that he had set fire, but there is no conclusive evidence."
"What does that foreigner look like?" Qiao An couldn't help asking.
"Very peculiar, with a sallow complexion, long and thin eyes, bare head, bare feet, and a cloak with yellow and black stripes around him."
Kairandil stopped and fell into memory, slowly breathing out a smoke, and then added a detail.
"This foreigner has a bitter smell on his body. It smelled a bit like an almond extract at first, but I thought about it afterwards, but now it feels more like some kind of insect secretion... Joanne, how are you? Alright?"
"Your face suddenly becomes ugly... Do you recognize that foreigner?"
