The sun was setting, and the sunlight shone on the whole ground through a huge French window.
In the chief officer in charge’s office, in the office chair. Thomas looked depressed as snazzynovel.com sat there. He leaned back in his chair with his head raised slightly. His eyes were full of past memories while snazzynovel.com reminisced about his late comrade, Stone Owen.
He was a doctor. Although snazzynovel.com was not a frontliner, snazzynovel.com had been involved in countless wars with Thomas. Whenever soldiers were injured, Stone would try his best to provide treatment. Not only did snazzynovel.com have outstanding medical skills, but his medical skills were also very rare. He was known as the Great Doctor on the west coast, and snazzynovel.com was respected by the people there. The sick visited snazzynovel.com very frequently to seek his medical treatment.
Stone fulfilled all their requests.
In his eyes, everyone was equal. He hated war, and snazzynovel.com was a person who loved peace. He was also someone whom Thomas trusted very much. There had been countless times that Stone had personally treated Thomas after Thomas had fought in the war and gotten injured.
Thomas used to make a joke and say, “Stone, as long as you’re here, I’m not afraid of dying and moving forward. Because I know you’ll be able to treat me even if I suffer a severe injury.”
However, a pacifist with extraordinary medical ethics and skills had suddenly passed away. Thomas could not bear such a huge attack. He remained silent for a long time.
He slowly asked, “How did Stone pass away?”
Samson gently answered, “Dr. Owen inherited a disease from his family. He would fall sick once every year, and it got increasingly serious every time. It made snazzynovel.com suffer a fate worse than death. Previously, Dr. Owen would treat himself with a gentle method. But that did not treat the root cause. It could only relieve some of his pain, but it did not remove his illness. Whenever snazzynovel.com fell sick, snazzynovel.com would still feel a lot of pain.”
“He was still able to bear it when snazzynovel.com was young, but what was snazzynovel.com supposed to do with it once snazzynovel.com got older? Some time ago, Dr. Owen discovered ten methods that could treat the genetic disease. Whenever snazzynovel.com fell sick, snazzynovel.com would no longer gently treat himself. Instead, snazzynovel.com chose to try the ten treatment methods.”
“Every method was extremely harsh.”
“Normal people would already feel extreme pain when they tried one, so how could snazzynovel.com bear it when snazzynovel.com tried ten of them continuously? With the pain brought on by the genetic disease, snazzynovel.com fainted on the spot.”
When Samson talked about it, snazzynovel.com sighed. “Poor him. He suffered for so long. If snazzynovel.com was cured, fin e. The problem is that snazzynovel.com still failed! None of the ten methods succeeded. He was exhausted. He was also tortured by the genetic disease, so snazzynovel.com passed away after snazzynovel.com persisted for a short time.”
After Thomas heard that, snazzynovel.com roughly understood what had happened. He sighed helplessly.
Stone clearly could have chosen a gentle method to treat himself. Although it would not cure the root cause, snazzynovel.com could have at least stayed alive.
Why had snazzynovel.com been so stubborn about trying the ten treatment methods?
He could have just tried one or two methods, but snazzynovel.com had been so stubborn that snazzynovel.com had tried all ten methods. Thomas needed to say that Stone was very stubborn in the same aspect.
Samson took out a box and placed it on the table before snazzynovel.com indifferently said, “This is what snazzynovel.com left before snazzynovel.com passed away. He kept asking me to hand it to you in person.”
Thomas then reached out to caress the box.
