The end of the curtain

?In the first year of Qingying, summer——

The weather is gradually getting hotter, and at the same time, bellflowers, which symbolize the arrival of hot summer, are also blooming.

Platycodon is not a very beautiful flower. It is purple-blue or deep purple in color. It looks a bit like a delicate morning glory. Perhaps the difference between platycodon and morning glory lies in their size, and Morning glory is a creeping vine, while bellflower grows one after another, just like a rose.

The blooming platycodon flowers swayed slightly in the sultry summer wind, and the air was filled with the faint smell of platycodon flowers.It's not a very sweet and greasy fragrance, just a light taste of the plant itself.But in this sweltering air, it looks a bit clear and beautiful.

It seems that Xiao Qianhe's mood has improved a little recently, and Sakurai has returned to his previous indifferent look. Although everyone didn't understand what was going on, they were still a little relieved.

Everyone in the Xinxuan Group didn't go out to inspect after breakfast today, but stayed in the camp, and then they all walked to the lobby together when another Ping Brigade came to inform them.

Because today Makudenori's doctor Matsumoto Yoshinori will give everyone a physical examination today. Of course, Mr. Kondo invited him to come here, and their friendship has been pretty good from the beginning, and Dr. Matsumoto is happy no matter how busy he is. agreed.

Sakurai squatted by the patio, watching Qianzuru washing the vegetables that were used as ingredients for lunch today with a smile on his face, and there was no need to go up to help, after all, Qianzuru was completely competent.Although the life in the village can be very busy sometimes, it is very boring once you are free.So when Sakurai is free, one of his favorite things is to find Qianzuru, quietly watching her work, occasionally chatting a few words intentionally or unintentionally, or helping her when she sees that she is too busy.

"Little Chizuru, you are in a good mood." It's not that she is free now, but that she will go to the lobby to help Dr. Matsumoto later, although as a woman, Mr. Kondo and Mr. Hijikata have considered that it is not easy for her to come for the examination. Sure, but the physical examination of hundreds of people is not so easy to complete.

"Well, Xiaoxu looks much better." Xiao Qianhe washed the eggplant seriously, picked off the mud on the eggplant with his fingers, and said something subconsciously with a soft smile.

"Ah, yes." A gloomy look flashed across her black eyes, but her gaze subconsciously fell on the bell bracelet on her left wrist. Soon, she smiled again, as if nothing had happened.

Life always has to go on, and it's hard to justify being sick all day long and making everyone worry.Everyone in the Shinsengumi is actually a good person, and they have always taken good care of them, and they are not as inhuman as the common people say. She and Chizuru can see this for all, and they are also grateful.

"By the way, Xiaoxu." Suddenly, as if remembering something, Qianzuru's voice sounded with a smile, and Sakurai raised his head to look at her, "I met Mr. Saito a few days ago when I went to inspect There is a girl named Xiaoqian, she is very nice, if you have time, I will introduce you to each other." When she said this, Qianhe's dark brown eyes were full of joyful smiles.

Xiaoqian?thousand……

Hearing that Sakurai couldn't react to the name, after thinking about it carefully, he remembered that there seemed to be a girl in the plot, named Chihime, who had a good relationship with Chizuru, and didn't remember much else, after all It was already two years ago, and the impression is not so deep.

"That's great, thank you, I'll definitely go if I have the chance." Sakurai will appear to be in a good mood when facing Chizuru, and his speech and behavior will be more relaxed and natural, because Qianzuru's empathetic personality is exactly what Sakurai and Chizuru have. Everyone's like, "Chizuru, you are busy, I have to go to work, goodbye."

"See you."

—————————————————————

Sakurai is not mainly responsible for the task of physical examination, she only needs to record the physical condition of the team members on the side, and occasionally send medical equipment.Moreover, Dr. Matsumoto is also a very friendly person. Although he knew from Mr. Kondo that she is a girl, he will not disdain and disbelieve like other doctors. Instead, he will record it in professional terms with confidence. The work of the illness was given to her.

In this feudal society where men are superior to women, no matter how good a woman's medical skills are, if she is not well-known, almost no one will believe her, but will be disdainful.

When Dr. Matsumoto asked everyone to take off their shirts to check their bodies, the whole lobby erupted again. Sure enough, the conservative society has conservative ideas, but everyone is a man. He took off his shirt and walked over to line up, revealing his white arms, which is really dazzling to look at.

At this time, Hirasuke and Harada walked over when everyone was not paying attention, and seeing Shinpachi who was smiling not far away helplessly held his forehead, Hirasuke asked in a low voice: "Hey, Xiaoxu, where is the place?" They're all men, are you okay?"

"Or, forget it." Harada looked at Dr. Matsumoto who started the examination, and then at Sakurai who lowered his head and wrote his name.

After Sakurai finished writing the name of the team member, he raised his head and looked at them stroking their bangs that were too long, and then smiled lightly and lightly, and said lightly: "If this is even the case, I won't If not, then I've really failed as a doctor." In the medical school class, I and other students didn't just see the upper body, so it was nothing at all.

Hirasuke on the side was a little stunned, and Harada just smiled knowingly and put his hand on Sakurai's head, like a gentle big brother.

What a brave girl, if it was an ordinary girl, she would have run away screaming and covering her face.

"Hey, Mr. Ito, please cooperate and take off your shirt—" At this moment, Dr. Matsumoto's very affirmative voice made everyone cast their eyes over it subconsciously.

Ito was standing in front of Dr. Matsumoto with a face of reluctance, his tightly wrapped clothes still hadn't been taken off, with an expression of swearing to die, and he was covering his mouth tightly with his hands. At the skirt of the clothes, the orchid fingers are twisted up and down.

"It's really rude!" Ito said sharply, but his face had a disgusted expression, and his thin chin was raised high.Seeing this, Sakurai felt so cold that he suddenly felt an urge to kick him to death.

Mr. Ito, can you stop being such a hypocrite?Perhaps in the entire village, apart from Ito's faction, there are Mr. Kondo who has always been kind without knowing it, and the boy Hirasuke. I am afraid that no one is willing to get close to him.

Even the always-calm chief executive said with resentment - I don't like him either, although it is undeniable that his swordsmanship is superb.

"If Mr. Ito doesn't want to, we won't force it." It would be a waste of time to persist. There are still so many people behind, and Dr. Matsumoto's workload is huge.Sakurai suppressed his slight anger, and unceremoniously issued an order to evict the guest.

"—Cut!" Seeing this, Yidong didn't stay any longer, he turned and left as he wished, until he was far away, everyone could still hear his dissatisfied complaints and murmur to themselves.

He grunted dissatisfiedly all the way past Chizuru who was washing vegetables, and was about to go directly, but Chizuru who didn't know why stopped him: "Mr. Ito, what happened?"

"Ah, there's a doctor named Matsumoto trying to force my clothes off! How rude!"

"Matsumoto? Is it Dr. Matsumoto Yoshinori?" I remember that before her father left home, her father told her that if she couldn't solve anything else, she could go to Dr. Matsumoto in Kyoto.Although it was not found at that time, maybe Dr. Matsumoto will know about his father now.

Qian Hexun has been searching for so long, of course he will not let go of any news about his father.Hearing this, a little bit of hope ignited in Qianhe's heart.

"It seems to be so." Ito thought for a while, holding his chin with his orchid fingers, and Qianzuru had already stood up and ran away quickly: "I'm going to check my body too!"

……

Chizuru hurried to the lobby, but she didn't see Sakurai. Later she found out that Sakurai got up and left temporarily to go to the infirmary to get a stethoscope. I'm too busy.

"Hey?!" Just as Qianhe rushed to the door, she saw everyone taking off their shirts one after another, revealing all the bodybuilding muscles they had exercised for a long time. As a normal girl, she couldn't help but blush a little.But anyway, she is also a doctor's daughter, so she didn't blush like other girls or even feel extremely embarrassed.

"Doctor, then I'm counting on you! Look at my muscles, they are the perfect result of practicing swordsmanship for a long time!"

Nagakura Shinpachi has always been proud of the muscles he exercises and thinks he is perfect. I saw him shyly showing his muscles to the doctor.

What's there to be shy about saying a guy just took his shirt off?

"Shinpachi's body must be very strong, but it's the brain that needs to be checked." Hirasuke poured a basin of cold water on it, and Shinpachi immediately jumped over and beat Hirasuke: "Heisuke! Say that What useless nonsense is courting death?!"

Dr. Matsumoto ignored him, just wrote notes for him to check his body, and then said calmly: "Yongcang Shinpachi is in good health, it's ready, next one!"

Shinpachi felt as if he had been splashed with cold water again, but he finally had this opportunity to show his muscles, but he didn't obediently get out of the way, but said a little excitedly: "How is it possible? Doctor! There are other things to check place! For example—"

"No, your body is definitely in good health!" Dr. Matsumoto didn't bother wasting time with him anymore, and even Harada couldn't resist shouting at him: "Hey! Shinpachi, there are many people behind, are you alright?"

But Shinpachi is still relentless.

"The doctor examines your body instead of showing it yourself. Get out of the way!" Saito didn't show any expression on his face, but just said the right words at the right time.Although Shinpachi was not reconciled, he turned around and left angrily.

When passing by Harada, Harada with a gloating smile on his face seemed to be showing off his toned muscles. Shinpachi regained his confidence in the perfection of his muscles and began to pose strong and powerful.

Well, these two people are really...

Little Qianhe was stunned for a moment, then laughed softly.

—————————————————————

After a busy morning and most of the afternoon, although it happened that Yamazaki, who is also the team doctor, was not there today, Dr. Matsumoto finally completed the physical examination with Sakurai helping to diagnose the heart and lung conditions of the team members. Finally, Matsushita Tone, I still feel a little tired.

But the matter is not over yet. After the physical examination, the medical reports of the team members should be sorted out to facilitate future diagnosis and treatment.When Matsumoto watched Sakurai take out a report with a serious condition from the report, he couldn't help but frowned.

A group of big men are sure to suffer from all kinds of diseases when they stay together...

At this time, Kondo, who walked in on foot, asked the first sentence: "Doctor Matsumoto, Sakurai-kun, how is the situation?" Kondo was still very worried about everyone's physical condition.

"The wounded and patients accounted for almost one-third of the total staff." Dr. Matsumoto looked at the medical examination books of a large number of patients, and as a doctor, he felt a little unhappy.

"What?" Mr. Kondo was a little nervous.

"What, what?" Dr. Matsumoto walked towards Kondo step by step, pointing at Kondo's chest with a cocky eyebrow, and blamed him, "From constipation to knife wounds, this place can be called a disease fair!"

"what?"

"I said, Mr. Kondo, what are you doing? The team members are so sick that they don't take any measures, and there is-" Matsumoto suddenly remembered that one of the conditions found out today was even more serious, and he felt a little angry .

Afterwards, he didn't say anything, but stopped abruptly, because the disease was no small matter, even life-threatening.

"Mr. Matsumoto, I'm sorry, everyone in the Shinsengumi is acting like this because I'm negligent of duty, and it's none of Kondo's business." At this moment, Sakurai, who hadn't spoken all this time, stood up and apologized in a low voice.

If she had done her duty well, everyone wouldn’t have checked out so many diseases like now, right? In the end, it’s her fault. She still felt a little guilty.

"Ah, Sakurai-kun, I can't blame you. After all, it's not convenient for a girl to do a physical examination for us big men. You have tried your best." Mr. Kondo has always been a kind person.

"Don't say who is right and who is wrong. In short, Mr. Kondo, we must take measures from now on... First, we should prepare the ward and move the patients to the ward. Then all the clothes should be disinfected and the dust should be cleaned... That means keeping the house clean and tidy.”

"Uh, okay—" As he said that, Kondo smiled awkwardly and walked out with Dr. Matsumoto, "By the way, Dr. Matsumoto, that, Mr. Tsunamichi's daughter Yukimura-kun..."

Sakurai looked at their figures that were drifting away, his black eyes were filled with a layer of dim haze the moment he nodded his head and looked at them, which made people feel flustered.

Pursing his lips without saying a word, he took out a page from a thick stack of medical examination reports that he had been pinching his fingers just now, and saw the word "tuberculosis" written by Dr. Matsumoto himself.

Even Dr. Matsumoto has diagnosed this fact. In the current situation where there is no way to do it, although he already knew it, didn't he...

His nose was sour, and the moisture in his eyes almost turned into crystal tears, blurring his vision and confusing his heart.

How long can I last?

Director...?
