Minamoto Tamako quickly stepped forward to shake hands, claiming to be a criminal police officer from Nakagawara Police Station, here to escort a suspect for emergency treatment, hoping the doctor could help extract case-related information.
Doctor Arima scratched his head and gently refused.
"Sorry, my schedule is full today..."
Minamoto Tamako widened her eyes, thinking, then why did you agree to take the patient? Didn't we agree on the fee over the phone earlier? Now that the person is here, you're saying your schedule is full?
Fushimi Roku maliciously speculated, leaning close to whisper in Minamoto Tamako's ear, "Perhaps he just wants to get more money from you... Such a quack, I think it's better not to bother."
At this moment, Doctor Arima changed his tone: "However, my assistant is available; she can conduct an initial diagnosis, and we can then discuss a follow-up treatment plan..."
"Follow-up treatment?" Minamoto Tamako was taken aback.
