The interior decoration of the yard is simple, and from time to time, nurses wearing special work clothes pass by, all walking in a hurry.

Chi Yu followed the caregivers responsible for transporting Anna Jones to the third floor of the lunatic asylum.

In the corridor, a doctor in a white coat walked towards him, glanced at Anna in the wheelchair, and turned around to enter the empty room next to her.

The caregivers filed in, pushing wheelchairs.

They forced the struggling Anna onto the bed.

The doctor turned a deaf ear to Anna's screams and said in a calm and indifferent tone: "A shot of diazepam."

"Okay, Dr. Will."

The nurse who squeezed in at some point skillfully took the prepared injection from the trolley.

Chi Yu and Kver stood not far from the door, looking at the busy people in front of the hospital bed.

After some "treatment", Anna's eyes closed again and she was forced to fall asleep.

The doctor took off his mask without being surprised and walked up to Chi and Yu: "Are you the patient's family member?"

Without waiting for their answer, the doctor said to himself, "Please go to the charge desk on the first floor to settle the fee. If you decide to keep the patient, I recommend purchasing package three, which includes food, accommodation, and psychological counseling. Just pay £20 a week..."

Kevir's face turned green when he heard this.

20 pounds, that's his week's salary!

He was about to deny it when he heard the nurse in the corner shout: "Dr. Will, Mr. Zoroyard just called and asked us to arrange the best accommodation and medical care conditions for Miss Anna..."

"When did this happen?"

"Just five minutes ago, the full amount of gold pounds was deposited into Mrs. Oliver's account..."

Halfway through her words, the nurse realized that the person who had just asked the question was not Dr. Will, but one of the two foreigners at the door.

She shut her mouth immediately and tucked Anna into bed quickly.

Dr. Will didn't care much about this: "Senz Zoroyard... is worthy of being the director of the Tinder Clinic. He is really rich."

He turned to look at Chi and Yu, "Since someone has paid, you can leave."

"Doctor, please wait!"

Kerviel gave chase.

The doctor put his hands in his pockets, stopped and looked back.

"We are friends of Anna. We are very worried about her current situation..." Kver said seriously, "What disease does she have? Is there any possibility of cure?"

"You've already been sent to a lunatic asylum, what else could it be?"

Dr. Will smiled and said, "As for the possibility of cure... I can't say for sure. After all, there is something wrong with the brain. Even a famous doctor from Dirkmont cannot guarantee 100% that he can cure a mental patient."

"Then, Mr. Zoroyard...why did you take the initiative to bear Anna's medical expenses?"

"How do I know this? Maybe it's because he is a simple fool and has too much money, or maybe it's because of that... gentlemanly spirit? Isn't he from Dirkmont? I heard that they usually pay most attention to these things."

The doctor said casually, "Besides, you are not the patient's friends? You should know better than me what kind of relationship she has with Mr. Zoroyard."

"Any thing else?"

"Excuse me, we want to inquire about a patient named Dak..."

Perhaps because he had just received the full medical bills, the doctor named Will was surprisingly easy to talk to.

Not only did he readily point out the ward of Dak and others, but he also specifically reminded him to "pay attention to safety"... After all, for normal people like Chi Yu and Kver, the lunatic asylum is not a good place.

Judging from the treatment that Duck and others have in a single room with professional caregivers, their medical expenses have probably been covered by the wealthy Mr. Zoroyard. In Chi Yu and Kerver's understanding, there is only one connection between Sainz Zoroyard and people like Dak and Anna, and that is the strange statue that was salvaged by Dak and several other fishermen.

Just because of this, so much money is thrown away...

Reviewing this point, Keville, a wage earner and proletarian fighter, said he could not accept it.

Chi Yu, who had no idea about gold pounds, remained rational: "This also proves that in the eyes of Sainz Zoroyard, the value of that statue is far more than several thousand pounds..."

Before he finished speaking, Kver said with a heartbroken face: "Stop! My heart aches when I hear this number now... evil rich people!"

"capitalist!"

"vampire!"

Is your reaction too big...

Chi Yu paused and said curiously: "As Dirkmont's famous detective, you shouldn't be short of money, right?"

"Don't praise me like that, I'll be embarrassed."

Having said that, there was no shy expression on Kerver's face. "I am indeed not short of money, but that is based on hard work every day... I don't want to wait until I am forty or fifty years old and have a big beard." Well, you still have to take a camera to take pictures of your employer’s marriage partner’s extramarital affair.”

"...Same. These days, savings are still very important."

While chatting, the two came outside Dak's ward.

After hearing their purpose, the nurse motioned the two people to come in: "The patient's mood has been relatively stable in the past two days. If you have anything to ask, please ask quickly."

"Thank you."

"Need not."

The nurse put the banknotes handed over by Kerver into his pocket, turned around and left, and at the same time, he did not forget to close the door for them thoughtfully.

Chi Yu sighed in his heart about the omnipotence of money, and then stood on both sides of the hospital bed with Kver.

The middle-aged man who was in a daze on the bed sensed their approach and glanced at the two of them in confusion.

Kver smiled and said: "Mr. Dark?"

The man nodded blankly.

Kerver did not rush to get to the point, but asked two simple questions first.

It turned out that although Dak's words were somewhat illogical, they were not nonsense and were basically consistent with the facts they learned.

"...Do you remember Elizabeth Campbell?"

"Elizabeth...knows, knows."

Dak's reaction speed was very slow, and his speaking speed was even slower, but neither Chi Yu nor Kver were impatient, and Gu waited patiently.

"Elizabeth is, is a friend of Anna and Mr. Zoroyard... a very good person."

"In the beginning, she was the only one who reminded us..."

I don't know if he recalled some bad memories, but the facial features on Dak's face gradually became ferocious.

But he did not stop narrating because of this, and continued to talk intermittently: "She said that the statue is an ominous object, and we must, must throw it back to its place immediately, otherwise, everyone on Ovis Island will be We will be buried with you..."

"Zroyard... Zoroyard and Anna lied to us..."

"No, no! It's us, we are too greedy, that's why all this happened... I, we..."

Duck held his head in his hands, his expression contorted with pain.
