Physical cooling is useless.

Medication is useless.

From seven o'clock in the morning to now, Alice's menacing high fever has lasted for three hours, and there is no sign of subsiding at all.

At this time, Zhou Fangzun, whose body temperature was already in the normal range but still relatively high compared to ordinary people, did not dare to approach her at all.All he can do now is to listen to Kusanagi's command, and Kusanagi only tells him what he usually does and what he still does now.

There was no sense of blame or anger in his words, it was just that the speed of speech became a little faster than usual because he kept taking various physical cooling methods for Alice.

But this attitude made the Red King feel uncomfortable, like a stick in his throat.

It would be better to punch him directly...

And he couldn't help - he didn't even have the memory of being sick himself.

Before he became king, Zhou Fangzun was rarely defeated in fights, at most he would be injured, and if he felt uncomfortable, he could recover after a night of sleep.

And even if he wanted to help, if he was inexperienced, there was a high probability that he would only help more and more.

That's why Kusanagi said, "It's good to respect you and do your own thing."

But in fact, apart from the necessary moment of appearance, the Red King has nothing to do.

No one expects him to work, or use his powers for social good like the Blue King.

Because instability is "red".

Most of the kings "understand" this very well, and some of them can even "understand" his wildness.

He sat on the small sofa that Alice used to put the school uniform coat on, watched Kusanagi bring a basin of cold water and put it beside the bed, wrung out the towel and wiped the little guy's palms and neck.

After doing this, Kusanagi called Alice's head teacher Kunikida Doppo in a soft voice to ask for leave.

The exact length of the leave is still uncertain, because Alice has not yet subsided the fever.

Kusanagi changed the ice stickers a few times, and wiped her hands every now and then.The little guy was in a daze with a fever, and occasionally woke up coughing and crying.When I fed her food, she kept her mouth tightly shut, refusing to eat anyway.

"Liz... Liz... just eat a little, okay?" Kusanagi wrapped her in a quilt and held her in his arms.

Usually, when hugged like this, Little Cowhide would always grab Kusanagi's neck with his hands, but today Kusanagi can only stick this little furry head to the side of his neck.

Alice, sickly, whined twice.

This means not wanting to eat.

Normally, she would not eat, and Kusanagi would show a lot of patience to stare at her until Alice clearly realized that she would never leave the table until she finished her meal today, and obediently grabbed her chopsticks.

As for today...

Of course, I can only show more patience...

"It's not good if you don't eat, baby..."

Kusanagi touched her cheek.Soft and hot, like a freshly baked mochi.

so cute.

But now how cute she is, Kusanagi has a headache.

If the consumption continued like this, when the group of people who came back from the countryside saw Alice who had lost a lot of weight, Anna might be the one who would cry.

"Jun, do you want to go to the hospital together?" Kusanagi picked up the car key from the bedside table and shook it in his hand.

The Scarlet King, who had been silent all this time, glanced at the little sick child lying on his shoulder.

"Hmm..." nodded.

/

Zhou Fangzun hugged Alice all the way, because Kusanagi had to be responsible for driving, so he couldn’t split himself in two, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to turn to the Red King, after all, there was still a child seat (by the way, he also knew that Kusanagi had Even bought a child seat for the active Alice).

On the way, the staff officer of the Chizhi Clan ordered His Majesty the King to change the ice stickers for the porcelain doll in his arms.

Zhou Fangzun did it very clumsily - he pasted it twice to avoid sticking to Alice's forehead hair.

So far, although it was his unintentional mistake to make Alice have a fever, the Red King, who is still quite guilty about it, finally has some comfort and a sense of participation.

Children who go to the hospital are children who suffer.

Pediatrics, in particular, are full of all kinds of scalp-numbing crying.And most of the parents here are also in a state of being overwhelmed, and the ones like Zhou Fangzun who are in a dazed situation are naturally a minority among the minority.

Hospitals are not familiar to him at all, let alone the category of pediatrics, which is comparable to a strange world on the other side of the earth...

However, Kusanagi Izumo, who also came to this kind of place for the first time, seemed very calm.

Because this young industrialist directly used his money-making ability to promote himself as a VIP client of this expensive private hospital within 10 minutes...

After some inspections, Alice's medical insurance didn't help much, and her value soared instantly. The money spent on her was probably the income of Barbara in the past two months.

Although the Scarlet King is not sensitive to money, he never thought that children are so precious.

In his opinion, a cold and fever with an extremely simple cause still requires blood routine and chest CT examination...

Are you serious? ? ?

Isn't this just a cold? ? ?

Zhou Fangzun hugged Alice who was wrapped in a small quilt, and he realized how serious his mistakes had been.

While waiting for the results of routine blood tests, the nurse took them to a single room.

"Why is Anna not so sick?" The Scarlet King suddenly asked.

"Anna? It's because of being an ally. Hasn't that kid Shishu endured a lot of beatings since he became an ally?" Seeing his guilt, Kusanagi raised his hand and hammered him on the shoulder, "Your 'Asylum', more useful than you think—ah... I'm out to take two calls."

But this kid is not his ally.Zhou Fangzun thought.

Young people who can be called industrialists naturally have other reliable sources of income instead of relying on barbara for profit.However, just like every businessman, Kusanagi Izumo also has endless calls and calls that must be answered every day.

"Respect." Before going out, Kusanagi pointed to Alice who was sleeping peacefully.

This means asking him to help with babysitting.

Zhou Fangzun gave a soft "hmm".

Even if you stare at her, you can't see the flowers.The idle and bored Red King poked Alice's cheek lying on the bed, and then covered her head with his palm to confirm the touch—ah, it really can be easily crushed with one hand A little thing weaker than ten bunches of tatara.

While Kusanagi left for a while, the nurse who came back with various test results also brought two bottles of medicine.

The result of the examination was tonsil inflammation and fever caused by alternating hot and cold colds.

If the temperature has not cooled down after losing these two bottles, it is time to prepare for an injection.

Zhou Fangzun asked blankly: "Now these two bottles don't count?"

"No, it's glucose and normal saline. Didn't the doctor tell you that when you were seeing the doctor just now?" The little nurse spoke very straightforwardly, and her eyes were also very straightforward, and she looked at Zhou Fangzun with open eyes." What's going on with this parent?" helpless.

Zhou Fangzun: "..."

He decided not to speak, and watched silently as the nurse undid the infusion hose and needle and rolled Alice's sleeve up above the elbow.

The blood vessels on the back of children's hands are hard to find, and the inside of the elbow is more obvious.

The Red King is a ruthless man who is not afraid of bullets, but for some reason, when he watched the thin and sharp needle exposed to the air piercing into Alice's skin, he felt an unbearable repulsion Sensation—as if the needle was going to pierce his pupil.

But he is very clear that his adverse reaction is not caused by the so-called "acute phobia".

The first time the nurse gave Alice the needle, it didn't work.

The other party gave a slight "hiss" in self-blame, and the Scarlet King frowned and said nothing.

The second time the nurse gave Alice the needle, it was still unsuccessful.

Half of the needle tube pierced into the little girl's skin was pulled out, and then it was inserted again, but still visibly grazed the green blood vessels under her skin.

Zhou Fangzun: "..."

The third time the nurse gave Alice the needle was also unsuccessful.

Because this time Alice woke up.Zhou Fangzun even felt that it was the nurse who woke her up, because the first thing she did when she woke up was to retract her arms that were exposed outside the quilt.

"Oh! Don't move, kid!"

The nurse exclaimed, and quickly moved her arm out, but the dark red blood had flowed back to about a knuckle above the needle tube.

Zhou Fangzun: "..."

It would be a lie to say that you are not angry.

Watching this nurse put so many needles on her own child, even if a stranger stood by and watched, he probably wouldn't be able to bear to look directly at her.

So just when the nurse decided to try for the fourth time, His Excellency the Scarlet King simply snatched the needle from her hand, and raised his hand to pat the call bell placed on the bedside.

After a while, Kusanagi, who finished the phone call, and another elderly nurse came in one after another.

Their focus is different. Of course, Kusanagi saw Alice who opened her eyes and looked at Zhou Fangzun at a glance.

She looked much more awake than before.Probably because I regained a little energy after sleeping, but my face was still red, and my body temperature just after taking the measurement still remained high at 39.2.

"Liz!" Kusanagi walked quickly to the bed, bent down and rubbed the tip of her nose, "Do you feel better?"

The little guy shook his head, and touched his throat with the finger that wasn't pricked by the needle.

——It hurts so much.

Kusanagi read her silent words and touched her face: "It won't hurt when the illness recovers."

The majestic gaze of the elderly nurse scanned the ward and quickly understood the situation.

She took the intravenous infusion needle pinched by Zhou Fangzun, and re-sterilized the arm of the little girl on the hospital bed.

Under the "threatening" gaze of the red-haired young man beside him, he stabbed in place.

Seeing this, the Scarlet King raised his eyebrows dissatisfied and snorted softly.

After the two nurses walked out of the ward, the older one glared at the new nurse with hatred: "Didn't your grades during the internship be very good? What happened today?"

The little nurse shrank her neck and said aggrievedly: "The child's parents...the eyes are too scary...I, I'm frightened by his staring..."

Elderly nurse: "..."

Thinking of that young man, she sighed and didn't say any more serious words of blame.

He just comforted the young people and said that this is also a rare opportunity.

Little nurse: "Huh?"

Why is it rare?

"Occasionally, people from the underworld will come to see the doctor. Compared with the exaggerated Ukiyo-e tattoos on some members of the underworld—"

The older nurse, who was used to seeing strong winds and waves, concluded: "Well, the eyes of the child's parents are more terrifying as expected."
