Chapter 17: I’ve Changed My Impression of You
The setting sun filtered through the cracks of the window into the narrow attic.
Rena, dressed in a nun’s robe, sat at the bedside and carefully examined Sally, who lay on the bed, while Melissa stood nervously on the other side, watching.
Leon waited alone downstairs.
Rena’s examination required Sally to remove her clothes and bare her skin, so he naturally had to avoid the scene.
Moreover, that tiny attic simply had no space for a fourth person.
Rena carefully observed the crystals precipitated on Sally’s body, occasionally asking about the various symptoms that had appeared since the onset of her illness.
Throughout the process, her expression remained grave, making Melissa’s heart twist with anxiety.
After finishing her examination of the crystal distribution on Sally’s body and the condition of the joints in different areas, Rena leaned closer to listen to her heartbeat once more, then meticulously recorded everything with the paper and pen she had brought.
It took her a full ten minutes to write down every detail.
