[Comprehensive] Just a housekeeper
Chapter 89
After getting off the train, the three of them walked to the hometown of Edward and Al. It was a small remote village made up of large fields of crops and single-family houses dotted here and there.
His exclusive maintenance engineer, that is, his childhood sweetheart, female mechanical armor engineer Wen Li and her grandma, Piccolo, lived together. Their arrival was welcomed by Wen Li's 'kindness' (hammer).
After the adjustment and overhaul, Piccolo and Wen Li said that the legs are fine, but Edward's hands must be redone.
"It will take a week?"
"Heh, don't underestimate me." Grandma Bikonna said with a smile while exhaling the cigarette from her mouth handsomely.
"Three days will be fine."
For three days, Al couldn't move, so Edward, who had put on ordinary prosthetics, went to visit his mother's grave, and then, together with Al and Major Armstrong, checked the places where the trains mentioned by Colonel Hughes might pass through the map.
Wen Li was making Edward's mechanical armor all night, and Edward and Al didn't give in. They kept comparing the train route map and timetable and other data all night long.
Relying on not needing to sleep, Al kept calculating where those cars lived on the map overnight, and then discussed the past route and time with Edward.
Maps, old newspapers, timetables, scraps of paper...all spread out on the table, on the floor, everywhere.
This made the mother-in-law who took the time to clean up disgusted. She beat them up and down on the floor with a broom and gave them a good lesson. Shake your head straight.
"Two stinky boys, really, since I was a child, I can't hear other people's words once I get in."
Sweeped the seemingly unused straw papers on the ground together, but while sweeping, Piccolo suddenly saw a piece of straw paper that was different from other straw papers.
She bent down, picked up the piece of paper from the pile of straw paper, and found that it was a portrait of a person wearing glasses.
It was the sketch of Mr. Nishikawa Puncher that Armstrong had drawn for Edward on the train before.
"Ah, the painting is really like it." The mother-in-law stretched out her hand to hold the temple of the glasses, looked at the portrait carefully, then turned her head and waved at Edward.
"I said, do you still want this portrait of yours? If you don't want it, I'll clean it up."
portrait?
Edward didn't respond, Al turned his head and took a look, and immediately reacted after seeing what the portrait was holding in the mother-in-law's hand.
"Yes! Mother-in-law, that's the person we're looking for!"
Hearing his younger brother's voice, Edward also pulled himself out of his thoughts, turned his head to look, and jumped up in fright.
"Ah! Why did that portrait fall on the ground, don't throw it away!" Edward hurried over, reached out to take the portrait handed to him by his mother-in-law, and muttered non-stop while rubbing his head.
"Major Armstrong drew this for us, and we will rely on this to find someone later. Don't lose it."
He walked back to the table while talking, but suddenly heard such a sentence from behind.
"Hey? Are you looking for Dr. Xichuan?"
"It's not a doctor, it's Xi Chuan...?!" Edward turned his head abruptly.
"Grandma, do you know the people above?" X2
Al looked at his mother-in-law excitedly, and Edward also rushed back and looked at her nervously holding up the portrait.
Grandma Piccolo snorted, holding the broom with one hand on her hip.
"Of course I know him. He's a doctor in the town next door. I went to see him for my back pain before. It's really good. It's better than those doctors in big cities."
"Everyone likes to go to him for treatment."
doctor?treat?Edward looked at the portrait in his hand, and then looked back at his younger brother Alphonse suspiciously.
"No way..."
"Whether it is or not, let's go and have a look first." Al said hesitantly.
"Maybe it's really him?"
"Our luck will be so good?" Edward held his mandible in surprise, and closed his mouth that couldn't be closed in surprise.
They are always unlucky to be sent around by Roy, and recently they are unlucky to meet Scar and be targeted by him... They have never been favored by the goddess of luck.
Al: "Grandma, is it the town of Barka next door?"
"No, it's Gurradin who is farther away."
Gulladin? !A flash of inspiration flashed in Edward and Al's minds, and they immediately rushed to the train map they had seen before regardless.
After flipping through the map for a long time, both of them stared blankly at the spot on the timetable.
That's right, Gurrading is indeed on the way of the Jinjiang, without passing through their town, and walking from the two next-door towns in between, and on another road, and like them, they arrived after one night central city.
Edward and Al looked at the map in disbelief.
"Brother, is it true that the goddess of fortune has really started to take care of us?" Al looked at Edward excitedly. If he had a hand, he must have already held his brother's hand by now.
Edward was also very excited: "Al, this should..."
"It's just shit luck."
The mother-in-law put her hands on her chest and interjected.
"Mother-in-law!" "Mother-in-law! QwQ"
"Hmph, if you two brothers really want to say that it's Goddess of Luck's favor, wouldn't it be me?" The mother-in-law put the broom aside, took a puff from the pipe behind her, and smiled triumphantly.
"I recognized this man."
"Eh..." Edward's expression was indescribable, and even Al froze.
The two turned their heads back and forth, as if they were possessed by a poorly accepted mechanical armor, and then they got together and whispered in a very low voice.
"Hey! What are you two impolite brats talking about!" Binako jumped out of the intersection angrily, and kept tapping the floor with a broom.
"Don't whisper to me!"
……
Early the next morning, taking the address given by his mother-in-law, Edward set off for Al and Major Armstrong, who could not move, towards the neighboring town of Gurrading.
After sitting in a bullock cart for a whole morning, the two finally arrived at the town. According to the address on the note, they walked around the town.Unlike Granny Binako, Gurrading as a town is more prosperous than Edward and the others thought, but it is also a very peaceful town.I took the note and asked the residents living here along the way. As soon as those people saw the address, they knew that Edward and the others were looking for Dr. Xi Chuan. They skipped over the tall and burly Major Armstrong, and they all looked at the young man with sympathy. Edward, who was easily fitted with prosthetic limbs, gave them answers positively and kindly.
Thank you very much.The blue veins caused by the sympathetic gaze, but it is not easy to get angry with kind people, Edward can only grit his teeth with a smile on his face.
In addition to the location of that doctor Xichuan, they also asked about Dr. Xichuan by the way, and found that the answers here were all similar.
"Although his face is expressionless, Dr. Xichuan is really a kind person."
"Yeah, yeah, that's called being cold-faced and kind-hearted. He's obviously a doctor, but last time our cow was sick and I was kicked and went to him for treatment. He even came to help our cow see a doctor."
"I saw it at once, it's really amazing."
"Yes, last time I was knocked out with a large bruise on my back. Dr. Xi Chuan gave me a plaster, and the bruise disappeared quickly. It didn't hurt at all. It was really useful."
"Me too, before..."
It seems that this person's reputation is really good, Edward's ears are full of calluses when he hears the praise around him.He was clearly asking only one person, where did the other people who came together to talk come from?
The crowd stirred, and a boy a few years younger than Edward, wearing his father's overalls as overalls, jumped down from the eaves next to him with his hands in his pockets and landed in the alley. He looked up and saw the people gathered there.
Puzzled, he put his hand between his brows and squinted his eyes to look there. His gaze swept across the crowd, and he saw Edward and Armstrong caught in the middle of the gap, and then keenly discovered Edward's prosthetic limb.
"Are they here to find a doctor?" The boy said aloud, rolled his eyes and didn't know what he thought of. He laughed, raised his hand and rubbed the tip of his nose, and rushed towards the crowd.
"Let's go, let's go!" Like a fish, he squeezed through the gap of the crowd deftly, and quickly rushed in front of Edward and Armstrong.
The boy looked Edward up and down, grinned and said to them with a smile: "Are you going to see Dr. Xi Chuan? Are you injured?"
"Ah?" Edward was taken aback, but before he could answer, the boy grabbed his sleeve and dragged him into the crowd.
"Come with me, I'll take you there."
"Hey! Wait, I, hello...!" Although he really wanted to find that person, he didn't want to be crowded!Edward, who was being pulled, unexpectedly discovered that the boy's strength was not weak. After being pulled into the crowd without realizing it, he was squeezed in the middle and couldn't use his strength. He could only staggered and was dragged away by the boy.
"Edward?!" Armstrong, who was also squeezed in the crowd, looked at the only one he could see of Edward's stupid hair, and struggled to keep up. However, that huge body became his biggest obstacle at this time. But little Edward came quickly.
With a flick of the dumb hair on his head, Edward's eyes instantly became fierce.Just now it seems that someone is calling me short? !Damn it, who doesn't understand that concentration is the essence!
Puff——Squeezing out of the crowd, Edward staggered and jumped two steps before he managed to stabilize his body. The next moment, he was pulled and quickly ran in one direction again.
Seeing the boy who was grabbing him and running fast, Edward shouted at him with nerves: "Hey, don't be in such a hurry to take me there, my companion is still there!"
"We'll be there soon!" the boy said with a smile, pointing to a house diagonally above with his free hand.
is there?Edward stared dreamily at the house over there.Then he came back to his senses suddenly, and shouted at the boy again: "Wei, didn't you hear what I said?" "I said my companion is still there before!"
The boy replied without looking back: "Don't worry, everyone here knows the doctor, and your companion is not injured, and he will find him soon."
"..." That's right... Edward choked.
The two ran and jumped, passed through various paths, and came to the house the boy had pointed to.
It was a small white two-story building with a plaque reading the clinic next to the gate on the first floor, and the entrance was on the second floor just like the Mars family I met before.
Before seeing the whole picture of the small building, Edward was dragged up to the second floor, and the heavy wooden door was pushed open, "Doctor! Here I come."
"Quiet, Duck." The brown-haired short-haired man in a white coat turned around, his eyes were closed but his brows were gentle, his cheeks were clear and mature, but he was wearing a pair of ordinary rimless glasses.
He casually closed the unfinished book in his hand, without the slightest irritability of being disturbed.The long white coat made his body look a little thin, but it made his temperament more gentle and serious.That look is like the nobleman that Duck and his father met by chance in the big city. Even the ordinary white coat looks like a well-tailored dress on him at the moment, adding to his intellectuality. Rigor and that unique charm.
"Okay, doctor!" Dak, who was smiling very unceremoniously, did not lower his volume at all, and saluted the doctor crookedly.
"By the way, doctor, I'm here with a wounded patient."
"Injured?" The man Duck called a doctor tilted his head.
"where is it?"
"Of course it's here... huh?" Duck proudly stretched out his hand towards the door next to him, but he didn't expect that little blond bean boy was not there.
people?Duck was dumbfounded.
Lying limply on the stone steps at the door with tongue out, Ai was caught by Duck and jumped up and down half of the town. Half of De Lei’s life was gone. Hua: Yes, dying...why no one told me Me, this place looks close, but is it actually so far away? !
And, why is the child's physical strength so good now? ? !
