The Great Medical Saint (Matthew) novel Chapter 679

The man trembled with fear, shuffling backward on his knees and frantically yelling, "Don't come any closer! I am one of you! I'm not Eastorian. Please don't kill me!"

Matthew's tone was cold as he questioned, "Why did you send Wendy back?"

The man quickly responded, "After Wendy left, Alan issued the order that anyone who enters the farm cannot leave without his permission."

"What's your relationship with Alan?"

The man hesitated momentarily before replying, "I'm his bodyguard, but I'm only an errand boy. I haven't done anything."

Upon hearing this, Matthew raised the Nightwrath sword in his hand. "I just saw you stopping Wendy. What do you mean that you haven't done anything?"

The man exclaimed in panic, "It was the boss' order! He declared that no one was allowed to enter or leave the farm without his approval.

"But I didn't lay a hand on her. I only stopped her from leaving. I'm only doing this to earn a livelihood."

Upon hearing this, Matthew realized the man was just trying to make ends meet. Hence, after some hesitation, he put down his sword.

"Tell me something useful, and I'll spare your life."

The man thought briefly before saying, "I overheard him discussing a plan. It didn't sound like it had anything to do with medicine, but it felt significant, like something about the future of the entire Eastorian population. That's all I know."

His words made Matthew frown. "Do you know what it is about specifically?"

At this moment, the man was shivering with fear and begged, "I really don't know. It was just something I happened to hear. Please spare me!"

A cold glint flashed in Matthew's eyes as he kicked the man, sending him sliding several feet across the ground. "Get lost!"

The man got to his feet and fled as quickly as he could.
