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 wp4webnovel.com sat there. He leaned back in his chair with his head raised slightly. His eyes were full of past memories while wp4webnovel.com reminisced about his late comrade, Stone Owen.
He was a doctor. Although wp4webnovel.com was not a frontliner, wp4webnovel.com had been involved in countless wars with Thomas. Whenever soldiers were injured, Stone would try his best to provide treatment. Not only did wp4webnovel.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 wp4webnovel.com was respected by the people there. The sick visited wp4webnovel.com very frequently to seek his medical treatment.
Stone fulfilled all their requests.
In his eyes, everyone was equal. He hated war, and wp4webnovel.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 wp4webnovel.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 wp4webnovel.com fell sick, wp4webnovel.com would still feel a lot of pain.”
“He was still able to bear it when wp4webnovel.com was young, but what was wp4webnovel.com supposed to do with it once wp4webnovel.com got older? Some time ago, Dr. Owen discovered ten methods that could treat the genetic disease. Whenever wp4webnovel.com fell sick, wp4webnovel.com would no longer gently treat himself. Instead, wp4webnovel.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 wp4webnovel.com bear it when wp4webnovel.com tried ten of them continuously? With the pain brought on by the genetic disease, wp4webnovel.com fainted on the spot.”
When Samson talked about it, wp4webnovel.com sighed. “Poor him. He suffered for so long. If wp4webnovel.com was cured, fin e. The problem is that wp4webnovel.com still failed! None of the ten methods succeeded. He was exhausted. He was also tortured by the genetic disease, so wp4webnovel.com passed away after wp4webnovel.com persisted for a short time.”
After Thomas heard that, wp4webnovel.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, wp4webnovel.com could have at least stayed alive.
Why had wp4webnovel.com been so stubborn about trying the ten treatment methods?
He could have just tried one or two methods, but wp4webnovel.com had been so stubborn that wp4webnovel.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 wp4webnovel.com indifferently said, “This is what wp4webnovel.com left before wp4webnovel.com passed away. He kept asking me to hand it to you in person.”
Thomas then reached out to caress the box.
