Tomorrow's Ark, the Battle of the Sick

"Thank you for your concern, Doctor." Frost Star stroked the bangs pinned up by the hairpin on his forehead, with a much gentler expression on his face, "Thank you for considering me as a member of Rhodes Island."

"Because you have agreed to join Rhodes Island, no matter where you are, you are one of us." The doctor stretched out his hand and stroked Froststar's hair, "Happy holidays, Froststar."

"Happy holidays, Doctor."

A simple sentence seemed to warm up Shuang Xing's peaceful heart.

For this world, she is a dead person, but for the man in front of him, he remembers her past and present, regardless of sin or redemption, the doctor always proves her existence.

After that incident, Froststar joined Rhode Island, but did not stay.

Because Frost Star accepted the option provided by the doctor, instead of joining the confrontation between Rhodes Island and the Integration Movement, he dropped everything and started a new life in another way.

Although at that time she did not expect that the integration movement would survive until now.When she was rescued, the integration movement that failed in the raid had been almost wiped out by various countries. Tallulah's intentions, the intervention of various countries, the self-purification performed by the Anbu of Longmen, and the conspiracy of the Ursas Empire military made that violent action Transformed into a more terrifying national war.

At that time, Rhodes Island was still very weak, or even though it had multiple action groups within the scope of common sense, it was far from being comparable to Rhodes Island today, and it was difficult to survive in the cracks between the major forces.

However, compared with the collapse of the original ruling class of the Ursus Empire and the resurgence of the integration movement after the war, Rhodes Island is becoming stronger and stronger under the strong will of the doctor and the operation of diplomacy. Compared with these bizarre realities, the survival of Frost Star seems It seems very insignificant.

But only the Doctor, Kelsey, and herself, knew what it meant to survive.

In that incident, the origin stone infection almost hollowed out Frost Star's body, causing her body density to increase significantly, making her originally light body heavy, allowing her to constantly consume her vitality to perform powerful origin stone skills.

Even today's polymers that save infected people are almost impossible to save a highly infected person with a high degree of fossilization.

No one can revive a severely damaged crystal that has been turned into an origin stone.

Just like no one can put a broken mirror back together, intact.

Yet the Doctor did.

No one knows what method he used, no one knows how long he used it, no one knows what price he used, even the most trusted and doctor-worshipping operator cannot understand this kind of thing.

But the Doctor did.

"Joining Rhodes Island and then dying or something, I have many regrets. I didn't save many people in time, but at least I want to avoid this from happening."

When seeing the doctor again, Frost Star only got this answer.

Henceforth, for the present Froststar, the past Froststar is dead.

Just like the Tallulah who was 'killed' by Rhodes Island.

"—what's wrong?"

It wasn't until the doctor spoke that Shuang Xing woke up from the memory, pondered for a long time, and shook his head slightly.

"Just thinking about what happened so far, good and bad."

"Remembering is human instinct, but the past has passed. After all, a stable life is not bad, is it?"

After the doctor finished speaking, he stretched out his right hand in front of Frost Star, put his three fingers together, and snapped his fingers crisply.

A white rose appeared between the doctor's fingers.

"A belated holiday gift, I hope you like it."

This is the little trick the doctor performed for the girls today. Although it is very simple, it makes them very happy.

Shuangxing stared blankly at the white rose in front of her, glanced away, then returned to the rose, hesitated, and slowly stretched out her hand, taking the white rose from the doctor's hand.

"Thank you for your continued concern, Doctor."

"Because you are Frost Star, but you are not. The real Frost Star is dead. You are now my operator and a part of Rhodes Island."

"But I failed to fulfill my duties, failed to fight beside the doctor, and just relied on the doctor."

"You don't need to fight for me anymore. Your suffering is over. If being weak is the original sin of tragedy, we are strong enough now."

The doctor stroked Froststar's hair and Carters' ears, and said earnestly.

"I don't want to disturb your current life, but at least at this time of year, maybe we can meet a little bit. If you want to go back to Rhode Island, you are welcome at any time. A lot of things have happened recently."

"this time every year--"

Froststar knew the meaning of the doctor's words.

"After all, that year and today, you became one of us and gained a new life." The doctor looked at Frost Star gently. "Maybe there are many tragedies in this world that cannot be redeemed, but I am willing to accept your confession."

Looking at such a doctor, Shuangxing seemed to understand something in his heart.

For example, why are there so many people who regard doctors as idols and gods.

It's not a feeling of being untouchable, but after getting his approval and understanding, everyone can find their own promised land.

Everyone is equal no matter who they are.

"There is one thing, maybe I shouldn't say it, but I may be the only person in the world who can still speak for her, so if there is any offense, please forgive me, doctor."

After hesitating, Frost Star lowered his gaze.

"The evil crimes committed by Tallulah can never be erased, and must be punished, but if possible, please ask the doctor to bring her back from walking on the muddy road—even if it is just a little attempt, you don't have to force the doctor." Frost Star said sincerely, "She is more complicated than I imagined, and has been changed by many things and people, but I hope she can wake up, at least before she really dies."

The doctor didn't comment on Frost Star's words, but just picked up the teacup, drank the last sip of black tea, put down the teacup and looked out the window.

The room was very quiet, so quiet that there were only the cheerful music on the street and the breathing of the two of them.

"Many of my actions follow my own heart or my promises, so I have no obligation to persuade Tallulah to turn back from the wrong path, and she will not accept it. What she really needs is punishment."
