García Emilio sat in her office, staring at a sinuous crack in the wall, and on the table in front of her was an unopened dark green envelope, the seal stamped with the scale-shaped seal of the Imperial Judiciary, an envelope of this color, usually sent to the heirs of the will, containing a notice asking the heirs to rush to the notary office where the testator made the will, and a copy of the will, within the specified date.

However, this envelope is very thin, and it does not look like it contains a copy of the will with a large number of legal provisions, which usually occurs when the deceased did not leave a will, and the court of the deceased's household registration invites all the legal heirs to discuss the division of the estate.

Next to the envelope was a cup of unsweetened coffee, and below the coaster was a copy of the day's newspaper, with the headline in bold letters, "The Behemoth of the Little Star Sea Killed", and below it was a photograph that took up most of the paper's pages, a huge monster floating on its belly.

Through the window on the wall, you can see the sky outside that is getting darker, and the person in charge of the night emergency room tonight is not Emilio, her auscultation work was over more than half an hour ago, but she has been in the consultation room until now.

Knock, knock!

There was a knock on the door of the consultation room.

"Come in. ”

The nurse on duty tonight reached in and asked, "Doctor Garcia, aren't you going back?"

"Well, I'll leave right away. Garcia responded, and got up from his chair.

The nurse glanced at the envelope on the table, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I'm sorry about your father." ”

"It doesn't matter. Emilio quietly picked up the envelope on the table and was about to stuff it into her pocket, but accidentally got the coffee on the table, and the black coffee suddenly spilled out, and the nurse standing at the door hurriedly walked in to help clean it up.

"It's okay, I'll do it myself, you go and do your own business. Garcia stopped the nurse who was about to help, and took a towel from the cabinet by the wall to wipe the coffee off the table.

Seeing this, the nurse took a step back, and crossed her fingers in front of her lower abdomen with her fingers crossed, "Then I'll go first, Doctor Garcia, be careful on the road." Then he walked backwards out of Garcia's consultation room.

Emilio finished wiping the table with a frown, picked up the coffee cup and the dirty towel and walked to the toilet at the end of the corridor to rinse it briefly, and then took it back to the consultation room to put it away, she glanced at the coffee-soaked newspaper on the table, the name of García Monroe in the list of victims made her look linger for a moment, but she immediately crumpled the newspaper into a ball, threw it into the wastepaper basket under the table, then changed her clothes, turned off the lights, locked the door of the consultation room and left.

The hospital was quiet at night, Emilio could clearly hear her high heels on the floor, and the distance from the consultation room to the hospital gate took her twice as long as usual, and she wondered if she needed to make a trip to the capital.

When she reached the entrance of the hospital, two people walked side by side towards the hospital in the distance, and Emilio didn't pay attention until the two men got closer, and she realized that both were her acquaintances.

Gordon helped Balbo toward the hospital, with a large piece of gauze pressed on his head and an expression on his face indicating that he didn't want to be helped at all.

"What's wrong?" Emilio paused, looking at the two of them.

"This old guy didn't know why he was standing in the construction site of the big duel, and he was hit by a stone that fell from the wall, maybe a little hard, you can show him. Gordon preemptively said.

"I'm fine, it's just a skin injury, I can handle it myself. Balbo pressed one hand to the wound on his forehead, looking very emotional.

"Then tell me why you're there. Gordon stared at Balbo with eyes that seemed like they would never open.

"That's not important!" Barbo growled under his breath.

"Look at this old guy, he can't remember anything clearly, and he said it's okay. Gordon retorted to Balbo mercilessly.

Emilio frowned and looked at Balbo, who was pressing her forehead, stepped out of the way, and said to the two, "Come in." ”

"I'm not going, there's still something going on in the bureau, and this old guy will be handed over to you. Gordon waved his hand, then turned to leave, he walked a few steps as if remembering something, and then turned back and said, "Monroe's temper is a bastard, but he's a good guy." ”

After saying that, he walked into the distance, and gradually disappeared into the night, since Hegu Jose dealt with Saya Renard with determination, some adjustments have been made within the Jiangcheng Police Department, and Gordon has also been promoted to police inspector, in terms of rank, he has reached the peak of his career, unless something unexpected happens, he wants to continue to be promoted only by turning himself into a demon spirit.

"Come with me. Emilio led Balbo back to the hospital, although he looked reluctant, Emilio still checked for him, the injury didn't look very serious, the wound was a little swollen, the bleeding was not very much, but there was something debris in the wound that needed to be cleaned.

So she left Balbo on the pews in the hall, took off her coat, and went into the pharmacy herself to get iodophor and cleaning solution, and when she returned to the hall, Balbo was staring at her coat, and she walked over and found a corner of the envelope in her coat pocket.

Emilio didn't say anything, removed her coat, and then cleaned Balbo's wound, carefully removing the dust and particles around the wound, "The thing has been sent, when are you going to ......"

Emilio interrupted his question by applying iodophor to his wound a little roughly, and then brought him clean gauze to help him bandage the wound, "The wound is treated, it looks fine at the moment, if the head hurts, you know what the reaction will be." With that, she packed her things and prepared to be sent back to the pharmacy.

"Garcia. She hadn't taken a few steps when Balbo suddenly spoke.

She looked back at him.

The old man got up from the bench and said, "Help me prescribe some morphine, my license has expired and I can't buy morphine." ”

"What do you want morphine for?" Emilio looked at him strangely, this Empire-restricted drug was not something she could prescribe casually.

"I can't sleep at night. The old man replied.

"Just can't sleep?" Emilio looked at the old man, who did look a little haggard, but that wasn't a reason to prescribe morphine.

Balbo explains: "I've been getting a lot of headaches lately, and my memory is getting worse and worse. He paused for a moment, "And, lately, I've been hearing Ivan's voice a lot." ”

Emilio looked at him in shock, how long had it been that the two of them had never mentioned the name Ivan again?

Her father, García Monroe, was the captain of the Imperial Navy battleship Blade, and as the captain's daughter, the twenty-year-old García Emilio also became a member of the Imperial Navy and boarded the Blade.

In her first year in the army, the fall of Blackcastle shocked the Empire, and the Kraken scuttled the Blade and all the warships moored in Blackcastle's harbor, but fortunately he and his father were celebrating her twentieth birthday in the city's tavern that night.

Then, their survivors, the Legion of the Rags, retreated to Riverdale City in the upper reaches of the Fallin River to stop the Kraken army, and the month-long battle known as the Meat Grinder of the Valley turned the once-beautiful city into a veritable purgatory.

The corpses piled up outside the city of Riverdale took a month to clean up after the end of the war, fortunately the battle took place in the late winter and early spring, otherwise the rancid smell of the corpses alone was enough to make the Imperial soldiers stationed in the city of Riverdale unbearable, but even so, the water of the Luoying River was still stained red with blood, and even the water from the well in the city had a rusty smell, and the food was extremely scarce, and in the most difficult days, they even had to use the corpse of the Siren as food to satisfy their hunger.

The bad environment, coupled with the need to beware of the Kraken's possible attack at any time, is very stressful for everyone, and in that environment, the concept of race no longer matters, so a somewhat old-fashioned love story happens, García Emilio meets a young man named Frey Ivan, his father is a military doctor, and his son follows his father's business to learn medicine.

A stray bullet from the Kraken makes the two meet, and then it's a cliché love story, except that the hero and heroine are absurdly humans and demons, but in that kind of purgatory, what is really ridiculous?

As the war escalated, the relationship between the two quickly warmed up, and it was not uncommon for people to have such a relationship in Riverdale at the time, and many people saw it as a way to relieve stress, including Emilio's father, who only turned a blind eye to it.

But the war always ends, and after a month of holding Riverdale, the Storm Legion finally arrived belatedly with supplies and reinforcements, and thanks to the concerted efforts of the Storm Legion and the Raging Waves, the Kraken was driven back beyond the Black Castle.

According to the script in the minds of the older generation, the relationship between Emilio and Ivan has come to an end at this time, but at this time Emilio is pregnant with Ivan's child, neither Frey Balbo nor Garcia Monroe wants this child to be born, but the young and vigorous Emilio and Ivan don't think so.

They fled Riverdale overnight, but how far was it for an Imperial Navy colonel to escape?

They were caught up in the River of Elves, and some accidents occurred during the dispute, so the name of Frey Ivan was added to the list of martyrs who were defended by Hegu, but Emilio was a good spellcaster after all, she did not return to her father, and Monroe himself retired from the navy and became the captain of a ferry ship on the Little Star Sea.

Emilio, who left the River of Elves, eventually gave birth to a daughter, she named her Reia, Reia is a very obvious Inhuman, one of her eyes is the eyes of a demon, and the other is a human, as an Inhuman Rhea is obviously one of the unfortunate ones, she has been very weak since birth.

Emilio tried her best to pull her to the age of five, but still could not change the result of Leia's illness, in desperation, she knocked on the door of the Balbo family who had settled in Jiangcheng, Balbo accepted Leia's patient, Leia's condition was very serious, but neither of them had money, and could not afford the medical expenses, so Emilio began to teach herself medical skills, she borrowed a large number of medical books from the library, asked Balbo if she didn't understand, and the two studied ways to continue Leia's life together, and they thought of various ways, still preventing Leia from dying a year later。

After that, she got a doctor's license, got a job in the hospital in Jiangcheng, and settled here, she never contacted her father again, but she knew that in fact, Balbo and Monroe had correspondence, including his own job search in Jiangcheng Hospital, so she could have her own office as soon as she entered the hospital, and she had a top treatment.

So time has come to the present, when Balbo brought the girl named Ling to her for help, she noticed that the child had the same silver hair as Leia, which was probably the reason why Balbo helped the child, and the failure to save Leia was actually very hurt.

But Emilio is no longer the impulsive girl she was back then, the years have made her calm and calm, she won't go out of her way to help those children for that reason, life has made her very realistic. This is probably to be alive, she has been polished by this world to another look.

Memories flashed through her mind, and Emilio turned around and took a bottle of tranquilizer and a bottle of painkillers from the pharmacy, she thought about it and took another morphine.

She put the medicine in Balbo's hand, "You know the usage, I'm going to the capital in the next two days, and I'll let other doctors take care of that girl's examination." ”

Balbo slipped the medicine into his pocket and looked at her, as if to say something, but only shrugged his shoulders and said, "Take care." Then he walked out of the hospital.

Emilio looked at his back, thought for a while, and then shouted, "Balbo, you're going in the wrong direction, your house is over there." ”

Balbo glanced back at her, looked around again, then oh and changed direction.

Emilio watched thoughtfully at Balbo's fading back, as if his memory had really become a little poor.
