Chapter 1561: 1560 Brave Girl
Mia thought Tan Rou was about to stab her with the scalpel and immediately screamed, “Ah! Don’t!”
Tan Rou smiled and said, “I thought you weren’t afraid?”
Mia gasped for air, “You, you’re too much!”
Tan Rou asked, “How do you feel now? Still sleepy?”
Mia was feeling very alert now, but she indeed had been a bit drowsy just before. If Tan Rou hadn’t scared her with the scalpel, she probably would have fallen asleep soon.
“Thank you,” Mia regained her composure, “I’m feeling much better now.”
Tan Rou said, “You’d better not sleep now because we’ll be leaving at dawn. If you’re still sleeping by then, I won’t take you with me, and you can stay here to keep Mrs. Hai Wei company.”
Mia definitely didn’t want to stay here with that strange woman, “Then hurry up and get started!”
Tan Rou didn’t waste any more words, she started to remove the bullet from Mia. The bullet had been inside Mia for a while now and it had become inflamed due to the hot weather, so she needed to treat that area properly.
Ina brought a small stool over and sat beside Mia, then started chatting with her.
With only her leg anaesthetized, Mia’s upper body could still move. Since she hadn’t fallen asleep, she began to chat with the girl.
“Your name is Ina, right?” Mia asked, “How old are you this year? And where are your parents?”
She felt Ina’s parents were somewhat irresponsible. How could they let a girl of her age wander outside alone? The outside world was so dangerous. If anything happened to Ina, they would probably not even have time to cry.
Ina shook her head and said, “Ina doesn’t know how old she is, nor where her parents are. They seem to have died, Uncle Gand said that from now on I have no parents, only Uncle Gand.”
“Ah!” Mia hadn’t expected this outcome, “Then why does Uncle Gand let you go out at night? The night is very dangerous, you should not come out again in the future.”
“Ina isn’t afraid of coming out at night at all,” Ina said very happily, “I like to come out at night. When I come out at night, there are many people who play with me. They carry guns and some have sticks, but none of them are as fast as me, and their shooting isn’t accurate. They haven’t hit me once.”
“Ah?” Mia was surprised again, “Are you saying you come out at night to play with the patrolling soldiers?”
“Yeah,” Ina said with a grin, “Those patrol soldier uncles are so much fun, they’re so dumb and stupid. They don’t know where to make a fuss, and they never find me. I just hide in the alley, and then they can’t find me.”
“Uh… uh…” Mia didn’t know what to say.
“Big sister, did you come out to play with the patrol soldier uncles too?” Before Mia could answer, Ina continued, “If you’re out to play, you must bring new toys, or it can be very dangerous. Do you have a toy?”
“Ah?” Mia felt all she could say was “Ah.”
“Like this toy,” Ina took out a gun from the small bag she carried, “Uncle Gand said this toy can protect Ina. If Ina encounters an opponent she can’t deal with, just shoot them~”
“Uh!” Mia gasped in shock. She never would have thought this seemingly innocent little girl would have a gun in her bag, a real gun, definitely not a toy gun.
While performing the surgery, Tan Rou heard their conversation and glanced up. When she saw the gun in Ina’s hand, she suddenly didn’t feel shocked at all, as if it was a completely normal thing. Even if Ina pulled out a rocket launcher from her bag, she wouldn’t be surprised.
“This little girl is no ordinary child,” Tan Rou said, bending her head down again, “I’d advise you not to chat with her about these things, in case the two of you don’t enjoy it, and she decides to give you a bullet as a present.”
It took a while before Mia understood, then she asked, “Who exactly is this little girl?”
Tan Rou said, “An orphan with no parents, didn’t she just tell you?”
Mia said, “Do you think I’m a fool?”
