Chapter 51 Doctor Weasley
"Sir, we've found it!"
A guard quickly stepped forward to report the situation to Jiang Shuzhou and Hayes.
"Based on our investigation, those believers are likely illegal immigrants. They are gathering in a clinic run by a doctor in the dock area, and our people are currently monitoring that clinic."
"Sir, just give the order, and we'll take care of them all immediately!"
"Hold your positions for now. Captain Hayes and I will be there soon to take charge," Jiang Shuzhou ordered.
"lead the way!"
"yes!"
……
Inside the Weasley Clinic.
Looking at the patients before him, Dr. Weasley was tormented. His profession told him that he could not stand by and watch them die, but his upbringing urged him to report these people to the authorities as soon as possible.
Inside the small Weasley clinic, there were only seven beds but more than a dozen patients, not including those lying on the floor. If those lying on the floor were included, there were a total of twenty-eight patients in the clinic.
They found their way here the night before last. First one person, then two or three, and finally everyone came.
These people pray every morning, which is clearly not allowed by the Mage Alliance, and this behavior also reveals their identity as believers in God.
At first, only one person was like this, but then everyone was.
The compassionate Dr. Weasley did not immediately choose to report them. These poor people were sick, and if he reported them, they would be sent to refugee camps. Weasley had worked as a doctor in a refugee camp for a while, and he knew very well what the management in refugee camps was like.
They will die!
These days, Dr. Weasley has been on edge, worried both about not being able to cure his patients and about being discovered.
"Doctor, you're a good person."
A little girl gave Dr. Weasley a flower, which she had secretly picked for the kind doctor.
"Thank you. Are you feeling better?"
"I feel much better. Thank you, big brother, and thank you to the merciful God. It is He who has restored our health," the little girl replied.
"It's actually medicine," Weasley thought to himself.
Weasley took the flowers and put them in a vase. Then he slowly stood up and began pacing back and forth in the room, a method he used to relieve his anxiety.
The money is running out. The expenses for food, clothing, medicine, and other necessities for more than twenty people all depend on Weasley alone. The money he earned is almost gone. He can only last for three more days at most. What will he do then?
"My God is merciful, Dr. Weasley. What troubles you? Why not pray to my God, whose name is Heim, the protector, who blesses us all?"
An older man said he was the first believer to come here and seemed to be the leader everyone tacitly agreed upon.
"No need, I'm just worried about the shortage of food and medicine."
"As expected, the evil sorcerer monopolized all the food and medicine, and this land cursed by the gods will never be able to bear the abundant fruits of the blessed land."
The old man was hurling insults at everything within the Mage Alliance without restraint, seemingly harboring intense hatred towards it.
Confessing to others did nothing to change Dr. Weasley's situation, and as he listened to the old man's cursing, doubts flashed through his mind again.
Am I really doing the right thing?
However, Dr. Weasley soon stopped thinking about these meaningless things.
Because Jiang Shuzhou has arrived.
"bump!"
The door was kicked open, and a group of soldiers wielding swords filed in. One of the soldiers' gazes swept across everyone's faces before settling on the little girl.
"My lord, this is the place. I saw it with my own eyes."
"Very good, I told you long ago you had to play the long game. If you had started catching earlier, how could you have caught so many people?"
"You're right."
"I will certainly remember your contribution after this."
Jiang Shuzhou naturally understood what his subordinates truly needed, and he was never stingy with rewards for talented individuals.
Being able to discern the subtle signs from a little girl's prayer while picking flowers, and finding this place, is a skill in itself.
The soldiers pointed their sharp blades at the patients. These were all part of their achievements, and they absolutely could not let them escape. With this in mind, the soldiers focused intently. If these people dared to make any rash moves, they would show no mercy.
"You bastard! I thought you were one of the few people with a conscience in this evil land, and I even wanted to shine the glory of my God upon you! But I never imagined you were nothing but a liar! I should never have believed that you faithless people had any conscience!"
Clearly, the old man misunderstood Jiang Shuzhou's words. He roared and cursed at Dr. Weasley, and not only that, he also tried to pick up a stool and smash it into Weasley's face, wanting to kill Dr. Weasley.
However, things did not go as he wished. Jiang Shuzhou finally couldn't hold back when he saw this scene. "You think I don't exist?"
Am I being too lenient with you?
He picked up the newly forged Miao sword and swung it directly.
The sharp blade sliced the old man in two from top to bottom.
"bump!"
Seeing the old man groaning on the ground after being torn in two, Jiang Shuzhou still felt a pang of pity, so he raised his gun and fired, finally ending the old man's suffering.
Killing is not cruelty to life.
I think this gun feels pretty good to use!
I have to say, there's a reason the packaging is so good; this thing really works.
Jiang Shuzhou then prepared to go through the procedures. Although resolving the issue of the elderly so hastily was not in accordance with the procedures, it is well known that rules are rigid, but people are flexible, and special cases should be handled specially.
"Testing Faith"
He quickly unleashed dozens of spells. Fortunately, the Faith Detection spell was not an offensive spell and consumed very little mana. Otherwise, just casting Faith Detection would have drained Jiang Shuzhou dry.
A blinding crimson light suddenly filled the room, the meaning of which was self-evident. The only white light emanated from Dr. Weasley.
When Jiang Shuzhou saw the soft white light emanating from Dr. Weasley, he was slightly shocked, even incredulous. He then released several more spells, which struck Hayes, a soldier, and even the already deceased old man.
Hayes and the soldiers were naturally emitting white light, while the old man's mutilated body, like the other believers, glowed crimson.
Incidentally, even if a person is dead, their faith can be tested to determine whether they are a believer, unless more than seven days have passed since their death.
What the hell? A moral giant?
In this world, are there really people willing to help others so selflessly? Is this still another world?
I wouldn't watch "Touching China" without you, even though I never watch it anyway.
Since things have come to this point, let's question them first.
"Detecting Lies"
Jiang Shuzhou was prepared to ask Dr. Weasley what exactly had happened.
"Alright, I've already cast the spell. Whether you're lying or not, I know perfectly well. Don't try to be clever, just tell the truth!"
"I see."
Dr. Weasley was pale, but there was a hint of relief in his voice; at least he no longer had to suffer from this inner turmoil.
This is liberation, and also an end.
As an educated man, Weasley knew all too well what his fate might be. Harboring more than twenty followers of God was a serious crime, and being sentenced to death on the spot would not be an exaggeration.
Did Jiang Shuzhou know? Of course he knew. Ever since Hayes reported to him yesterday about the existence of believers in the gods, Jiang Shuzhou had casually glanced at some legal provisions concerning believers in the gods before his cultivation that night. So he naturally understood the doctor's fate.
"Very well, I'll ask and you answer."
