"Isabel, I am saddened by what happened to your sister, and I hope that such tragedies will not happen again in the Far East in the future." Roland said with deep feeling.

"Your Royal Highness, you are such a kind person!" Isabelle's eyes were red with emotion.

Nikita sniffed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and immediately coughed heavily in vigilance, reached out and pinched Roland's arm, warning him to "discharge" the little girl less.

"Isabel, how is your sister's condition after the failure of the atonement ceremony, and if her condition hadn't deteriorated dramatically, she shouldn't have died young......" Nikita asked.

"The disease left Natalia quadriplegic, but there were no worsening symptoms, and in my opinion, if it hadn't been for some accident later, Natalia would have survived so far." Isabel had a complicated expression.

"I guess that accident had something to do with Mr. Leonid." Roland whispered.

Isabel nodded, "Before Pastor Perrault left my house, he lost his temper and viciously cursed Natalia that she would never be able to heal in her life and that she would never be able to stand up and walk alone, and the news reached Leonid's ears, which made him very angry and ran to my house and swore to Natalia that he would definitely try to cure her illness and prove that Pastor Perot's prophecy was pure nonsense!" ”

"From this point of view, Leonid is a good man with affection and righteousness." Nikita praised.

"Leonid was indeed a very affectionate person, and his affection for Natalia was so deep that even my parents could not understand why a talented machine warlock with a bright future could fall in love with a sick girl with atrophied limbs and the need for someone else to take care of her all her life." Isabel said quietly.

"This is probably a kind of 'Virgin Redemption' complex at work......" Out of respect for the deceased, Roland cautiously changed his tone, "Of course, more importantly, Leonid has true love for Natalia, although Natalia is a paralyzed patient in bed, but her maverick personality has an irresistible charm for men." ”

Roland remembered a book he had read on Earth called "Blade", a male protagonist who had been traumatized in the war, gave up his happy and mediocre family life in order to pursue the truth, broke off his marriage with his beautiful girlfriend who was born in a wealthy family, and went to Paris to study alone...... However, it is such a wise and calm man who falls in love with an alcoholic prostitute, and does everything he can to save his lover, trying to change her depraved lifestyle and help her overcome her addiction, but it has failed. The tragedy described in is so similar to what happened to Leonid and Natalia in reality, which makes Roland can't help but have a kind of "Zhuang Sheng's dream butterfly"-style doubt: maybe he is also a character who only lives in it, and his life is just a pre-written script by some author.

Putting aside those unrealistic distractions, Roland continued to ask Isabel: "Leonid is not a magic caster, what can he do to rejuvenate his paralyzed girlfriend?" ”

"Leonid is a trap-warlock, and a genius trap-warlock, and of course he will use the trap-warlock way to heal my sister," Isabel hesitated for a moment and whispered, "The rest of the story is a bit bloody, are you sure you want to hear it?" ”

"Of course you have to listen!" Nikita couldn't wait to urge, "None of us are children, we've seen a lot of bloody things, you can tell me quickly, what happened later?" ”

Leonid thought he could create a set of delicate mechanical prosthetics to replace Natalia's muscular hands and feet, and he did, showing her his invention and asking her if she dared to try it. Isabel said.

"Mechanical prosthetics...... Roland groaned as he touched his chin, "In the army, most of the wounded and disabled soldiers who can't get the 'regeneration' treatment will choose to be fitted with prosthetic limbs, which can indeed have the effect of assisting mobility, but I have never heard of this situation with prosthetics on both hands and feet. ”

"Since Leonid was a genius warlock, and since he loved Natalia so much, he must have done his best to create the most perfect prosthetic, and when he finished his own work, what reason did Natalia have to refuse to try? She's not going to get any worse anyway, is she? Nikita imagined herself in Natalia's position and would accept her lover's treatment without thinking.

"In fact, Natalia thought the same way, even though my parents were against it, even if Mr. Matvey thought it was too risky, Natalia insisted on trying a prosthetic leg that Natalia had made for her, and one night, I don't know how she opened the window bolt and let Leonid sneak into her boudoir......" Isabel took a deep breath, her voice trembling a little, "That night, Leonid anesthetized Natalia with a special drug, and then amputated her paralyzed hands and feet, Put on a prosthetic leg of your own making...... The next morning, I got up to wash up and heard movement in my sister's bedroom, and when I looked back, I happened to see the bedroom door open, and my sister Natalia, for the first time in her life, walked out of the bedroom calmly on her own feet, you can imagine how shocked I was! ”

"That is, Leonid succeeded? His invention of a prosthetic leg saved Natalia from her illness, and from now on, she can walk like a normal person without her wheelchair, and you should all be glad for her! Nikita is also relieved that the girl who has gone through the hardships has overcome the disease with the help of her lover.

However, this is not the end of the story.

"We are really happy that Natalia is rejuvenated, she was so happy in those days, she ran and jumped so easily, she couldn't even tell she had a prosthetic leg!" Isabel recalled, her face mixed with joy and sadness, "Unfortunately, the good times were short-lived, and Natalia's happy days lasted only a short week, and soon after the wound of the transferred limb became sepsis...... All I can say is that, at least in the last period of her life, she had no regrets. ”

Isabel couldn't bear to say more, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.

Nikita wanted to say something to comfort her, but she didn't know how to speak, and her nose was a little sour.

The root cause of Natalia's death was wound infection, is this directly related to the prosthetic leg invented by Leonid? Roland couldn't be sure.

Rationally, there does not seem to be a causal relationship between the two, and Natalia's death does not prove that Leonid's invention was a failure. But it is not difficult for him to imagine that the Lange family will never be able to calmly think about the cause and effect in the situation of losing a loved one, and they will not be tolerant of Leonid - it is the most reasonable thing to regard this madman who amputated Natalia's limbs without permission and replaced them with mechanical prosthetics of unknown origin as the culprit who killed Natalia.
