Man in the old days, Lord of the Seven Sins

Chapter 3 Who are you?what for!

April 1588, 4 in the old calendar, overcast.

Rhodes sat by the window, looking at the "Old London Morning News" in his hand

"Yesterday at 3:17 p.m., a demon appeared near Square 10, York Street. The management authority has dispatched personnel to investigate, and nearby people are asked to reduce their visits to the area until the demon is cleared."

Put down the newspaper.

Looking at the list of personnel spread out on the table, recalling what his grandfather said to him in the morning, Rhodes fell into a long silence.

"My dear grandson, grandpa is gone. This is the list of people you need to visit while I am away. They are all my patients. What you need to do is very simple. Just take the medicine box and go to change their medicines. , By the way, don’t forget to collect money, how much you can receive depends on your ability.”

The list of personnel is very detailed, and the address and when to go are marked friendly and friendly.

Like the first lady named Susan.

"Susan, age: 58 years old, address: 9 York Street, time: on April 4st, note: leg disease, debridement and dressing change of the leg, 1 crowns have been owed."

My dear grandpa, you are a grandson!

Let me go to the place where demons appeared only yesterday?

I was speechless for a while, but in order to live, Rhodes still needed to run around.

After all, this little grandpa didn't even leave him a son when he left.

According to him, a man has to rely on his own ability to live. If I come back and you are starved to death, I will help you choose a mass grave outside the city for burial.

Want to lie in the cemetery without money?

Of course, grandpa is not useless, at least he left a gun for him when he left.

"M500 revolver, this is an old friend of Grandpa. Now, I will give it to you. Ordinary demons are younger brothers in front of it." Robert patted Rhodes on the shoulder before going out, and said to him with a smile these words.

Feeling the cold handle of the revolver, Rhodes felt at least a little at ease.

The predecessor of the spear skill was originally known, and Rhodes also inherited it.

Putting on a decent suit, Rhodes carried a white medicine box and went out hungry.

The food at home had already been stewed last night, and Robert even took away the piece of jerky that Rhodes hid under his pillow for emergency use.

The greedy old bastard!
9 York Street.

In front of a two-story townhouse.

Rod knocked on the door.

Wait a while.

The door was slowly opened a crack.

A pair of cloudy eyes emerged from the shadows, and it looked at Rhodes standing at the door vigilantly.

"Who are you? What do you do?"

"Hi, Ms. Susan, I'm Robert's grandson, and I'm here to help you change your medicine."

With a smile on his face, Rhodes showed the medicine box in his hand.

Bang!
The door was quickly shut.

"I don't know Robert, I don't need a change of medicine!"

There was a scream from behind the door.

Rhodes was stunned.

But he quickly adjusted his emotions. After all, it was the uncle who owed money.

Knock again.

After waiting for a while, the door was opened again.

The cloudy pupils looked at Rhodes vigilantly again.

"Who are you? What do you do?"

"I'm Robert's grandson, and I'm here to collect the 1000 crowns you owe for medicine." Rhodes said with a smile.

boom!
The door was jammed halfway shut.

Rhodes got a foot stuck in the doorway.

"Oh no! Help! Don't come here!"

Screams sounded from behind the door, and Rhodes looked left and right, seeing that no one noticed his situation, he walked into the door.

pat.

Lock the door.

Rhodes turned to look at the room.

A cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead.

The dense, almost innumerable model dolls occupy the entire hall, and their black pupils are staring at themselves.

Such a weird scene.

Rhodes let out a sigh of relief.

"Ms. Susan, where are you? I'm Robert's grandson, and I'm here to help you change your medicine."

A strange rustling sound resounded in the hall.

Rhode's heart tightened, and his hand touched the handle of the gun at his waist. At this moment, he seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat.

"Who are you? What do you do?"

A low murmur sounded behind him.

Rhodes turned his head slowly. The pale-faced Ms. Susan was sitting on a chair by the window, with a pair of brown eyes, looking at herself curiously. A thick layer of gauze was tied on her legs, and there was a a crutch.

Rhodes narrowed his eyes. The Ms. Susan in front of him and the Ms. Susan who just opened the door are completely two people.

Could it be that there is something else in this room?
Rhodes was puzzled, but he calmed down his doubts for the time being.

"I'm Robert's grandson, and he asked me to come over and change your medicine today."

"Robert's grandson? Has it grown up so much?" Ms. Susan looked at Rhodes in surprise, with a curious look in her eyes. "I hugged you when I was young."

"Since you are here to change the medicine, come here, be careful with those puppets, and don't touch them randomly." Susan reminded in a low voice.

"Dolls? Ms. Susan, is there anything special about these dolls?" Rhodes asked casually while carrying the box, carefully avoiding the dolls.

"Hehe, they are all works of my granddaughter. For some reason, they are placed in the hall. Don't touch them, or my granddaughter will be angry." Ms. Susan had a kind smile on her face.

"oh oh."

Rhodes walked to Ms. Susan and sat down.

"Let me check your leg first, and if there is no problem, I will change your dressing."

"Okay, sorry to bother you."

"It's okay, it's my duty. Grandpa always taught me to do things with due diligence." Rhode said while pressing Ms. Susan's leg with his hands.

"Is there any feeling here?"

"No."

"What about here?"

"a little bit."

"What about here?" Rhodes moved his hand to Ms. Susan's ankle and squeezed it hard.

"Hiss! I feel it. I lost consciousness after my leg was scratched by the devil before. I didn't expect Robert's medicine to be effective." Ms. Susan's mouth twitched. Although it hurt, her face was still smiled.

"Well, this is what grandpa brought back from the battlefield." Rhodes said. "Then I'll change your medicine for you."

"Okay, sorry to trouble you."

Rhodes used scissors to cut the gauze tied around Ms. Susan's leg, exposing the location of the wound.

There is a large area of ​​scald marks on the thigh, the skin at the mark has long since disappeared, and the darkened muscles are covered with twisted and thick blood vessels and tendons.

Rhodes took out the medicine from the medicine box and applied it on Ms. Susan, and at the same time wrapped the gauze on it.

"All right, Ms. Susan."

"Well, thank you."

"Ms. Susan, including this time, the total is 1200 crowns, please pay it." Rhodes packed the medicine box and said with a smile.

"Who are you? What do you do?" Ms. Susan tilted her head and looked at Rhodes with blank eyes.

A green ball of greedy light floated above her head.

The ball of light poured into Rhode's body. With a smile still on his face, he turned around and walked to a model doll, and whispered, "Ms. Susan, you don't want your granddaughter to be angry, do you?"

"Okay, but you have to promise me that you must not touch them, otherwise I don't know what will happen." Susan showed a helpless expression on her face.
