A Genius Healer Who Can Treat Instantly but Was Banished From Party Considered Doing Nothing - CH 22

Chapter 22 :  Krishna’s later story

It was seven days after the incident that Krishna came to the clinic.

“Too late. I thought you were going to step on my toes.”

I said, and Krishna answered in a friendly tone.

“I’m sorry. I have a poor sense of direction, so it took me a long time to get there.”

“No, you’ve got no sense of direction.”

“I can’t help it. I’m a person of many weaknesses.”

“Damn, you’ve gone back to being a pain in the ass.”

Krishna smiled serenely.

Her smile is a little softer than last week.

“Well, it was a joke. I was dealing with the aftermath of a case and couldn’t get any time off at all. I’m sorry. I’ve brought a little extra for that, so forgive me.”

“So it’s all taken care of, at least.”

“This is just the first mountain climb.”

Lord Carendall was forced to admit to the abduction and confinement of the children, but he was reluctant to say anything about the trade routes and said it would take some time to find out the full story.

Nevertheless, it is said that there has been considerable attention at the centre for the fact that the dark side of the aristocracy has been scalped.

“Well, I’m going to go step by step”

“You’re persistent, you know. I’m not worried about you. Oh, by the way, I put a bullet in a nobleman as hard as I could…….”

“That will be all right. I thought that nobleman was dead, too, because he was so spiffy, and his memory seems to be pretty confused.”

Krishna chuckled and bowed deeply.

“It’s all thanks to Zenos-shi. Thank you so much.”

“Not really, I just showed up for a bit at the end.”

“If you wish, I can approach the Lord Commander of the Royal Guard to award you with a special cooperation award.”

“I absolutely hate it. I’d stand out if I did that.”

“Huh, I knew you’d say that.”

“Ah, um, Krishna-san.”

Lily, who was standing behind me, broke in fearfully.

“Well, you know, Zenos……”

“Oh, the mediator thing.”

Krishna lowered his voice a little.

“The banner of agitation which unites the principal races of the favelas to the detriment of the citizens – the Mediator”.

Her blue eyes look straight at me.

“I didn’t see any such person…… That’s what I reported to HQ.”

“A, Are you sure?”

“It’s okay, little elf. We are looking for dangerous people who will harm the citizens. Unfortunately, the ‘mediators’ I found are far from dangerous, they are small people who want to collect their accommodation fee.”

“Aren’t you being casually dismissive?”

“It’s thanks to you that I’m able to talk a bit lighter.”

Smiling faintly, Krishna said in confirmation.

“But Zenos-shi, you are really good. You have done a remarkable job in solving this case, even if you don’t record any of it.”

“Fine. In fact, if you write my name, I’ll haunt your dreams.”

“…… Okay. It’s not so bad to be able to turn into one and dream about it, but I’ll try not to leave any official record of it. But even if it’s not recorded, it’s certainly etched in my memory. The hero in the corner of the abonded city.”

“You’re exaggerating. I’ve merely healed a wound.”

“Oh, that’s right. You healed my wounds…”

Krishna put her hand on her chest and turned her head slightly.

She remained in this position for a while and then looked up as if she had made up her mind.

“Y, You know,….. Zenos-shi.”

“What is it?”

“Well, even if the mediator turns out to be a non-dangerous person, your influence cannot be ignored as the deputy division commander of the Royal Guard.”

“You can ignore me. In fact, you actively ignore me.”

“That’s right. I… It’s… Just for sometime, but…”

“Eh?”

“Ju…. Just for sometime, Can I come and monitor you?.”

For some reason I think Krishna’s face is getting redder.

“I refuse.”

“Eeeeehh~~”

Krishna gave a little shout and nodded her head disappointedly.

“I… I See…, It’s not, huh…. Of crouse, right…Women are all about smiles. No wonder they said they didn’t want a woman with a rock-hard smile like this.”

“What are you playing with, as if you’re going to cry? I don’t want to be on the monitor, but if you need me, just come on your own.”

“A-Are you sure?!”

“You suddenly became brighter, but there are many noisy customers, so don’t just disturb the clinic.”

“All right!”

“I mean, is it okay for the Royal Guard Division to go in and out of a dark business clinic?”

“Hmm, fortunately, as for the clinic thing, it’s under the jurisdiction of the Royal Treatment Center, so I don’t have any say in the matter.”

“Now you’re all smug all of a sudden, aren’t you?”

Then Krishna walked out with a slightly lighter step.

Did she ever change her expression like that?

“What was the last thing you said to me in the end…..?”

“Mumumuu, another beautiful woman rival…… mumumuuu…..”

“Why is Lili pouting?”

A voice from upstairs, biting back a laugh, said.

“Kuku kuku……, I knew there were more troublesome women.”

The small clinic continues to operate quietly as usual, gaining new customers.
