The hazy morning light awakened Andy in his sleep. He opened his eyes tiredly, feeling uncomfortable all over his body, his throat was like smoking, and he was sore from thirst.

"Oops."

Could it be a cold.

Andy was in a daze. He touched his forehead, but it wasn't hot. Andy got up and poured himself a glass of water. It's about eight o'clock in the morning. The light in the room is not strong, but very soft.

The eyes of Andy who was drinking water suddenly lit up. He stretched out his arms and looked at the green spot in the morning light in disbelief.

"What the hell is this?"

Andy rubbed his arm, it didn't hurt or itch, he was a little confused, so he took off his pajamas to see if there were any spots on his body.

When Darwin came to open the door for Andy, what he saw was a naked beauty, circling around to study his own body. He was so frightened that he quickly closed the door and turned his back.

"I said it all, you can't take off your clothes in front of me, Goddess, what are you doing?"

Andy's face was extremely ugly: "Darwin, do you have spots on your body? This kind of green."

Darwin turned his head, and quickly closed his eyes again: "You put on your clothes first, and my heart can't take it anymore."

Andy said, "Okay."

He picked up the pajamas and put them on indiscriminately, raising the sleeves to reveal the green spot. Darwin put down the tableware, looked at it, and frowned deeper: "What is this? Are you sick? We need to find a doctor."

There was deep worry in Andy's eyes. He turned around the room a few times and checked everything he could see, but found nothing unusual.

"I need help."

He took out a long skirt from the closet and put it on indiscriminately, probably in a hurry, and accidentally tore a piece of clothing.

Darwin said worriedly, "Stop running around, I'll find you a doctor."

Andy stopped and took a deep breath: "I don't know what disease it is, damn it, I don't even know what it is, you wear a scarf and go to the doctor, don't touch the things I touched, I don't know Will it be contagious? If the doctor comes, tell him to bring some wine and sprinkle it in the room."

Darwin's smile froze: "This is not a terminal illness after all, don't be too nervous Andy."

Andy's complexion was not relaxed. He rubbed the green spots on his skin, and soon, a small spot appeared next to the big spot, accompanied by a slight tingling pain and a somewhat itchy feeling

Darwin's eyes widened and his breathing became rapid: "Andy, don't move."

Andy rubbed it again, as if the spot was stimulated by something, another small green spot appeared faintly.

He lowered his face: "Go out, don't stay here."

Darwin swallowed: "I'll go to the doctor."

Andy didn't know what it was, but he didn't feel very good. He ate something and sat on the bed. The green spot on his arm seemed to be a little bigger than before. The smallest piece changed from a mung bean to a soybean. The tingling feeling became more and more intense, making him feel a little panicked.

When did you get sick?But I have never heard of any disease that makes people's skin turn green and itchy.

But Andy remembers that a few years ago, an epidemic broke out in a distant sea port, and everyone on the island died. All ships dared not approach there, and even preferred to change their routes and take a long way around.

Andy guessed wildly, and his mood gradually became heavy. Darwin was in charge of food and clothing since he boarded the ship. All the food was rationed by the kitchen, and there was no second procedure. There was little possibility of problems from here.

Darwin was also in charge of clothes, shoes and socks, sheets and bedding, and there was no abnormality, so what was the problem?

He was sick, when did he get sick.

Green spots.

Will it die?

What about Annie.

Andy fell on the bed, patted his face: "Be strong, don't have a long memory, you're at a disadvantage."

Darwin soon came back with the doctor, both of them wearing veils, the doctor put down the consultation box, wiped his hands with wine, a strong and pungent smell rushed into his nose, Darwin couldn't help avoiding it a bit, coughing a little Voice.

The doctor said seriously: "I specially prepared this, you should wash it too."

He approached Andy, first checked his face, eyelids, and tongue, and then went to observe the green spot, but after a while, there were large and small green spots on the whole arm.

"Does it hurt?" The doctor pressed with his fingertips.

Andy said honestly: "Just now there was tingling and itching, but now I don't feel it."

"Excuse me, move your arm, how does it feel?"

Andy moved his arm, and everything was as usual. The doctor seemed a little confused. After a careful examination of Andy, he said: "I don't know what it is, but it may be contagious. I'm going back to find information, please." You stay in the room, don't ventilate, don't get sun, don't come into contact with people."

Andy put down his sleeves: "About how long it will take."

The doctor packed up his things and put on his veil: "I don't know, but I will see Miss Oliver as soon as possible."

"Is it possible that it is an infectious disease?"

"God bless you, Miss Oliver."

Darwin watched the doctor walk out of the room, feeling a little uncomfortable: "What does he mean, I can't see what it is, God, I shouldn't accept this business."

Andy was thoughtful: "He didn't propose to bleed me just now."

Poor people have no money to hire a doctor, but Andy knows that for doctors who have not studied at Themis, one of the routine treatments is bloodletting. Even today, some doctors insist on bleeding patients before treating diseases.

Unless you are terminally ill, there is no need.

Darwin didn't know what to do. He looked at Andy anxiously and advised him to take a good rest.

"Maybe it's just a little bug."

He said weakly, and Andy pondered for a while, not as optimistic as Darwin, he said slowly: "Darwin, if there is an accident, you have to do something for me."

Andy took out a small bag from under the pillow, which contained a few small stones, and a card: "This is Anne's stuff. If there is an accident, you can ask that woman Oliver to get money and help me find her. I have been looking for her all these years. The saved money is buried under the seventh floor tile of the dilapidated house, there are about [-] silver coins, which can buy a piece of land, and you take Annie back to Kukuru, which is my home."

"Anne looks a lot like me, you'll recognize it."

"And this, this card is Ingmar's appearance, I asked someone to draw it, you have to help me find another artist, draw a bigger one, take it to the cemetery of Hall Manor, and find someone named Wall She was buried next to a big tree."

Andy said: "If I'm really an infectious disease, put me in a barrel and sink me in the sea."

Darwin's face slowly froze, veins appeared on his forehead, his face flushed, and he was as angry as a steaming teapot.

"What nonsense are you talking about, Andy, you can't ask me to do this! Andy! You!"

But Andy didn't give him time to get angry at all. With a sullen face, he drove Darwin out of the room mercilessly.

"Put the three meals at the door and wait for the doctor's results."

Darwin slammed on the door hard, and after venting his anger, he leaned against the door and said, "You'll be fine, Andy."

But the doctor didn't come for the second time, and Andy waited anxiously, but it didn't help at all. The spots grew and grew, from arms to chest, thighs, and slowly, spots appeared on the face one after another.

The plaques were getting grayer in color, turning a disgusting gray-green.

Darwin was not restricted in his actions. As a servant, he prepared food for Andy and brought many news to Andy one after another.

The count knew of Andy's condition immediately, and in order not to cause panic, he sealed off the cabins around him and asked Darwin to take good care of him. The count himself was determined not to take a look.

Miss Lilith was overjoyed, and was almost happy to set off fireworks to celebrate. The same person also had Max, who had approached Darwin in private and bribed him not to bring water and food to Andy.

Rejected by Darwin.

The doctor didn't get an answer for a long time, so he didn't see Andy again.

Duke Austin came once, and he had a conversation with Andy through the door.

The room was pitch-black, and Andy clutched his arms dejectedly. The large and small spots on his body became more and more dense, and there was no sign of fading. His spirit was also very poor, and he couldn't lift his spirits.

"Miss Oliver, are you all right?"

"What's your business?"

There was a pause on the other side of the door, and the cold voice continued: "Miss Oliver, in times of adversity, one should not focus on hope, nor should one fall completely into darkness. You should be strong, just like tempering a weapon. , live, and then you'll be fine."

"Austin?"

"I'm here."

"get out."

"..."

The Duke coughed, and Andy heard embarrassment from his cold tone: "I'm sorry, I don't know how to comfort others."

Andy stood up and kicked hard through the door: "I can teach you, but at this time you have to say to him, hey! You bastard! Are you just so cowardly? Stand up! Stop! Kneeling on the ground and praying, the radiance of the goddess can't shine on cowards! You have to fight for it! I can't do without you! You have to persuade people like this! Do you understand? Idiot!"

There was silence outside the door for a while, and Andy lay back on the bed slumped.

After a while, the door panel slammed, and Andy heard a painful moan, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Kicked toes?"

"……Um."

"Hehe, nobleman."

"You are also a nobleman, Miss Oliver."

They chatted for a while through the door, and the Duke said, "Can you give me that pearl flower you picked up in the library?"

Andy asked unexpectedly: "What do you want that for?" It seemed useless for him to keep it now, and Andy dug out the beads from his handbag and stuffed them out through the window.

"Don't pick it up with your hands, wrap it in a handkerchief."

"Thank you, Miss Oliver."

Andy touched the wall: "What do you want that for?"

"You will know later," said the duke.

Austin's arrival somewhat lifted Andy's spirits. He found that apart from green spots, nothing terrible happened to his physical functions.

Darwin would come to chat with Andy every day and tell him what happened on the ship recently. Since Andy has been sick for the past few days, their ship has actually almost finished its voyage and arrived near Themis.

As long as you get off the ship, you can find a better doctor. Darwin is glad that Andy is not suffering from a sudden illness, and his vital signs are good. He firmly believes that Andy is fine.

At the same time, he also told Andy that Miss Lilith was exposed to the scandal of adultery with the servants. God is so pitiful. The lady was found naked sleeping with several male servants, and the Earl was completely humiliated by her. .

And what is even more surprising is the Earl, who was accused by members of the Red Knights of murdering a nobleman, the drowned Miss Meer, it is said that witnesses saw the Earl smothering Miss Meer to death, and first hid the body , while the guards were changing shifts, they dragged them to the first deck and dumped their corpses.

The earl was controlled by the Red Knights, and now the person in charge of the ship is the Duke of Austin.

Andy was surprised by this result, he couldn't figure it out anyway, but Andy was locked in the room for too long, he was too lazy to think so much, he just wanted to go out.

Fortunately, when the big ship was about to arrive at Themis, the doctor seemed to have finally found a solution. He gave Andy the loosening medicine and told him that it was not an infectious disease, but probably just a kind of skin allergy.

"That's great, God, I knew the goddess would bless you." Darwin wept with joy, and chanted a twelve-line poem to express his joy on the spot.

The doctor's face was indifferent, and he left after packing up the consultation box.

Andy looked at his back and always felt that something was wrong. He drank the potion, and within half an hour, the green spots slowly disappeared. The speed surprised Andy and aroused his vigilance.

"Where are you going?"

Regardless of Darwin's overwhelming obstruction, Andy sneaked into the doctor's room alone. He used to do this often. Andy is a rational and reckless man, and he will definitely find out if he has any doubts in his mind.

He crouched under the window and waited for a while.

There seemed to be someone in the doctor's room. Andy lowered his breath and lay down under the wall. After a while, he heard a very familiar and cold voice.

"how is she?"

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, after drinking the antidote, she will be alive and kicking within half an hour, and nothing will happen."

"Please, Barron."

"You're welcome, my lord. I'm honored to be able to help you."

"Does that kind of thing leave any after-effects?"

The doctor sighed: "No, my lord, that thing is just like my other inventions, it is useless, and naturally it will not cause any harm. The young lady is so weak, she was probably scared out of it."

The Duke of Austin nodded, as he accepted the answer, he stood up, put on his hat, and left the doctor's room.

After going out, he looked at the sky, the sky was blue and cloudless, it was a wonderful day.

But a shadow suddenly enveloped Austin, his expression changed, he swung his cane and hit something, and then he was grabbed by the arm and firmly pressed against the wall.

"Good day, my lord duke."

Austin pursed her lips tightly, looked at those black eyes that were throbbing with anger, raised her chin, and sneered: "It turns out that you are the culprit. Can I ask why?"

The Duke's face remained unchanged, but his voice and expression revealed a cruelty that made people feel chills all over.

He was no longer at a loss, nor was he surprised at all. Those emerald green eyes showed blood that Andy had never seen before, completely separating the person in front of him from the stupid little crying bag three years ago.

Andy suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He had preconceived ideas, but in fact, he didn't know this person at all, and he didn't know Austin Phelps three years later.

He heard Austin say, "You're in my way, Miss Oliver."
