Run A Medical Clinic In The Abyssal World

Chapter 242: Embracing the thigh without showing it off, like a night journey in splendid attire

Suddenly, Fat Tiger sat up, instantly breaking the tense atmosphere in the room.

"He's awake! The boss's medicine works!" Vivian's face was full of joy. The boss didn't lie. This medicine called insulin can save diabetes patients.

Charlotte's eyes lit up, and he couldn't hide his excitement. Mona's irrational behavior of causing trouble in the hospital annoyed him, but it didn't stop him from wanting to save Fat Tiger and test the effectiveness of the insulin injection.

If it can save ketoacidosis, it fully proves the effectiveness of this insulin injection.

"Boss... Boss, you're alive!" The werewolf next to them exclaimed.

The orcs outside the door also showed joy on their faces.

"No need to say that." Fat Tiger rolled his eyes at him, his voice still weak. He looked around and his gaze fell on Charlotte. He was about to greet him when he noticed Diana beside him and felt surprised.

"Isn't this Miss Diana? Are you here for treatment too?"

"Fat Tiger!" Mona loosened her clenched fist and her expression instantly became less gloomy. She quickly walked up to the stone bed and embraced Fat Tiger.

"Uh... so many people watching. Miss Diana is still here," Fat Tiger tried to struggle, but when he heard Mona sobbing, he stopped moving and gently patted her back, whispering, "I'm fine. Isn't this good? How did I end up being brought to the doctor's after waking up from a nap?"

Diana watched the scene and didn't continue to be aggressive. She simply smiled and looked at Mona, waiting to see how she would end things today.

After a while, Mona adjusted her emotions and let go of Fat Tiger. She turned around and looked at Charlotte, solemnly bowing to him.

"I apologize to you, Doctor, for the reckless behavior of myself and my subordinates earlier. Thank you for saving Fat Tiger."

The orcs inside and outside the room also lowered their heads to apologize to Charlotte.

Their previous doubts and resentments had turned into acquiescence.

"Huh..." Fat Tiger's smile froze on his face. He had guessed what might have happened earlier.

He tried to ease the atmosphere by saying, "What's this about? It seems like doctor, you saved my life."

"I don't accept this apology. As a doctor, I haven't received the respect and trust I deserve. I've also taken on responsibilities that I shouldn't have, all because of your stupid assumptions," Charlotte looked coldly at Mona, ignoring Fat Tiger.

Fat Tiger's smile stiffened.

Mona's expression changed slightly. She felt ashamed and a little angry.

The mercenaries of the Tiger Head Gang gradually became indignant.

At this moment, shouldn't Charlotte accept the apology and pretend that nothing has happened?

Wasn't Charlotte trying to suppress them by taking advantage of Diana's presence?

Diana also smiled and looked at Charlotte with a hint of surprise. In her impression, he was not someone who would stand his ground no matter what.

Charlotte did want to stand his ground because he didn't want to be saved and then be held at knifepoint. He wanted to regain control after Mona caused such a big scene. He wanted everyone to know that he, Charlotte, had someone backing him up!

As the instructor said, it's better to fend off a punch than to face a hundred punches.

He shouldn't show off by clinging to someone's thigh like a bootlicker but should act stealthily like a well-dressed person in the night.

Charlotte looked at Mona and continued, "Furthermore, I can tell you clearly that this dose of medicine cannot cure his illness. Its effects only last for a day. If he wants to stay alive, he needs to inject this medicine every day at this time."

Mona's expression changed slightly, and the anger that had just appeared on her face turned into panic. She had thought that Fat Tiger woke up because of Charlotte's medicine and that everything would be fine from now on.

But she didn't expect the medicine to only be effective for one day.

"I know you're probably thinking that I deliberately set it up so that the medicine only lasts for a day," Charlotte's smile contained a hint of sarcasm.

Mona lowered her gaze. Yes, her first thought was indeed that.

"Let me tell you, he needs to inject insulin every day for this disease, and the dosage must be precise." Charlotte looked at her calmly and said, "I can't guarantee how long he will live after using this medicine. Maybe he can live like a normal orc for a few hundred years, or maybe just a year or two. Will you come back to me to compensate for his life then?"

Mona lowered her head, and Charlotte had made it clear already. Now, not only was Diana protecting him, but Fat Tiger's life was also in his hands.

But she was the head of the Tiger Head Gang, and she couldn't lose face in front of her subordinates.

So Fat Tiger took the initiative to take responsibility, showing the courage of a man.

"Alright, let's forget about it. You go into the operating room, and I'll take care of the wound on your leg. With the blood sugar lowered today, the wound might be able to heal." Charlotte said.

"Okay, thank you for your trouble," Fat Tiger nodded with a smile and gestured to the werewolf beside him. The werewolf quickly supported him and helped him into the operating room.

Mona looked at Fat Tiger's fading figure, her expression complex.

Since the boss had already apologized, the mercenaries of the Tiger Head Gang naturally had no more to say.

Moreover, the doctor had saved the boss's life and was willing to treat his leg. If they continued to cause trouble, they would seem unreasonable.

However, they had made such a big commotion, and today's events would certainly spread.

Their Tiger Head Gang had been suppressed by the Abyss Medical Hall, and this would surely be known in the mercenary and adventurer circles tomorrow.

But with Diana's presence, it wasn't too embarrassing.

The surgery on his leg was quickly completed. Charlotte applied a hemostatic agent to Fat Tiger's wound, and the wound visibly began to heal, no longer unable to heal as before.

"This..." Fat Tiger looked at his legs, overflowing with excitement.

Not only did the hemostatic potion take effect, but he also felt that his recovery ability seemed to have returned. He once again felt the surging vitality in his blood.

He had already given up hope, thinking that he would peacefully leave in his sleep after drinking the anesthetic potion last night.

But unexpectedly, he woke up again, and he was actually in the Abyss Clinic.

He was still alive, and Charlotte even gave him hope for a better condition to survive.

"Doctor, thank you." Fat Tiger tightly grasped Charlotte's hand and sincerely thanked him.

"Come tomorrow at noon for the injection. If the prognosis is good, it should last for a while," Charlotte said calmly.

"Okay, I'll come on time tomorrow." Fat Tiger nodded and added, "By the way, how much is the treatment fee for today?"

"One hundred thousand copper coins," Charlotte said.

"Huh?"

Everyone in the clinic turned to look at Charlotte.

Even Diana showed a bit of surprise in her eyes. Wasn't the price of this clinic usually three to five hundred copper coins? Why did it suddenly jump to one hundred thousand copper coins?

Vivian's eyes widened the most. She knew exactly what Charlotte had given Fat Tigera couple of bovine pancreases that cost nothing. She just purified them after smashing them frozen. And now Charlotte was asking for one hundred thousand copper coins?

Moreover, there were still nine unpurified cups of the same thing in the alchemy room.

This... was too ruthless, right?!

Fat Tiger also froze. The last time he came, in addition to the surgery, he also took a bunch of anesthetic potions and only paid two or three thousand copper coins.

But today, even though it was just another surgery with an extra injection, it cost one hundred thousand copper coins.

Over the years, they had accumulated a certain amount of wealth.

But if they had to spend one hundred thousand copper coins every day, their savings would be depleted soon.

Although Charlotte said the prognosis was good and he could live steadily for some time, Fat Tiger hesitated. Was this way of living worth it?

"Here are ten gold coins, please accept them." Mona approached and handed ten gold coins to Charlotte without hesitation.

"Mona..." Fat Tiger hesitated to speak.

"We will come on time tomorrow," Mona said.

Charlotte took the money and nodded slightly. "I'll prepare the potions in advance."

Mona nodded, motioning for the werewolf and panther to carry Fat Tiger away.

"Tomorrow, bring a thousand copper coins, that should be enough."

As the group reached the doorway, Charlotte's voice echoed gently.

"A thousand copper coins?" Fat Tiger's eyes lit up again. This price was something he could afford.

Mona stopped in her tracks, turned back to look at Charlotte, and bowed again. "Thank you."

After saying that, she led the members of the Tiger Head Gang onto the carriages and left.

"You're amazing. Now I feel like charging only ten thousand copper coins for a month's rent is too cheap," Diana smiled as she looked at Charlotte.

"Madame Landlord, you mustn't have such a misunderstanding. I'm just requesting some extra compensation for my injured soul," Charlotte immediately pocketed the money and said innocently.

"Boss, does this mean we can have a feast tonight?!" Vivian's eyes were already sparkling with anticipation.

"Yes, my treat," Charlotte nodded.

"What about me?" Diana asked, her red lips slightly pursed as she looked at him.

"You must sit at the head of the table," Charlotte said without hesitation.

"Buddy, let's go back first," Diana called out to Bacchus outside the door.

"Yes, miss." Bacchus nodded and led the fox guards, shutting the door behind them.

"You're amazing, Dr. Charlotte. Even Miss Diana is willing to stand up for you when someone causes trouble."

"No kidding, even the Tiger Head Gang's mercenary group couldn't handle him. Their big sister is a level six tiger-tribe beastman."

"Remember, from now on, we must not mess with the Abyss Clinic on this street."

"It seems the rumors are true. This little white-faced doctor from the clinic seems to have been taken care of by Miss Diana."

The onlookers outside the clinic, still wanting more excitement, couldn't believe what they had just witnessed.

No one expected that the fierce Tiger Head Gang, who had come with great momentum to cause trouble, would end up slipping away with their tails between their legs like little kittens.

Diana personally brought the Fox Guards to support Charlotte, which gave rise to numerous speculations.
