The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

Chapter 62

His name was… ‘San Gongmin’, wasn’t it?

“I cannot tell you here.”

I knew this would happen.

“Follow us. We will proceed with the interrogation.”

When the warrior spoke forcefully, I could feel Dad’s body tense up.

I patted Dad as if to say I was fine.

Whoa there. Father, not yet.

“How strange. So many people have gathered like this.”

Unlike with Peiman, I had no intention of pretending to be innocent. I stared piercingly at the warrior.

“But you arbitrarily call me a suspect and now expect me to follow without explanation?”

“It’s procedure. I cannot state the reason here.”

“Ah, so whatever misunderstandings the people listening might have is none of my concern?”

“I don’t know what you mean.”

“How convenient for your work.”

I tugged at Dad’s sleeve.

‘Father, bite!’

Having traveled together, Father proved quicker-witted than expected and moved swiftly even without my words.

Of course, I didn’t really mean bite.

“Warriors. It seems those people need some wind.”

Dad chuckled.

“As you command.”

At that moment, all the warriors who had come here floated up into the air.

The face of ‘San Gongmin’, who had been speaking as their representative, twisted horribly. It turned red with humiliation.

“Wh… what are you doing!”

“…”

“To attack the official warriors of the Hei Family! This will be considered an attack on the Hei Family Estate itself! The Main Hall will not stand for this!”

Because San Gongmin was bound tightly by wind and floating in the air, his struggling arms and legs were fully visible.

I calmly gazed at him and smiled prettily.

So what about it.

“Is that so?”

Physicians and pharmacists are inevitably people without combat abilities.

Multi-ability users like Hei Ahua aren’t scheduled to exist until the Female Lead appears.

But even so, in the Hei Family, and moreover in the Empire.

Do you know why warriors have no choice but to be beneath pharmacists and physicians?

“My name is Hei, Biyu.”

Warriors make contracts with families.

The contract stipulates that they must obey the orders of their assigned physician or pharmacist.

They accept the position of having to follow even unreasonable orders, stamping their seal with their own hands.

The reason for doing this is that this continent is naturally prone to frequent conflicts.

With so many people making money from war, those who heal are rare.

Is that all? The disease outbreak rate was also very high due to wars.

In this situation, warriors from the Hei Family gain advantages after their contracts end.

Just having work experience with the Hei Family grants them priority treatment rights.

Since healers are far fewer in number compared to warriors, and there are advantages to being affiliated with the Hei Family.

The Family Head of the Hei Family holds the power of life and death over their affiliated warriors.

“If I’m putting my name on a signboard, whose permission do I need?”

So this warrior’s current actions are blatantly disrespecting the direct line.

Even though Dad and I are in an abandoned position.

To deliberately do something like this, it must be orders from the Family Head, or if not the Family Head, then someone powerful in the Hei Family.

‘He attacked us even knowing who Dad is.’

You’d have to be an idiot not to notice him constantly glancing at Dad.

“…You arbitrarily put the family’s surname on your shop sign!”

“Yeah. Because it’s my name. So why am I a fraud?”

Watching him panic made me want to laugh.

How stupid.

He didn’t anticipate this situation at all, did he?

‘He probably thought we’d tremble in fear at the Hei Family name.’

I twisted the corners of my mouth up inwardly.

“Ugh, aren’t you… an abandoned person!”

San Gongmin scowled fiercely and shouted menacingly.

I didn’t bat an eye, and instead smiled brightly as if pleased.

“You just proved it with your own mouth, didn’t you? That I’m a person of the Hei Family.”

“…!”

Being abandoned or whatever, it doesn’t affect me one bit. It’s the truth, after all.

‘Your provocation is lacking.’

People are murmuring, but what matters to those people anyway isn’t the name but the physician’s ability.

Besides.

“Abandoned or not. I’ve never been expelled.”

I placed my hand on my chest and spoke confidently. Not forgetting to speak clearly.

“I’m a person of the Hei Family, and having the surname Hei doesn’t change.”

At my words, the man who realized he had dug his own grave lost his voice.

Soon even his cheeks turned red and blue.

“That’s… Damn it, trying to deceive with such words, the Direct Descendant of the Hei Family won’t stand for this! Submit to investigation immediately!”

I tried to cross my arms but failed, and tilted my head curiously.

“I’m also a direct descendant. I don’t know which aunt ordered you, but while you can request something from me, you cannot command me.”

I tilted my head and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

“Ah! Could it be that your intelligence is lacking?

Hmm, whoever that aunt in the background might be.

Thank you for looking down on us so much and sending us such a stupid human?

‘What these guys are actually targeting isn’t me… it’s probably Dad.’

Of course, I must have been annoying too.

I’m not even the grandson they’re supporting, yet I’m doing well in this huge market, so they must have found it irritating.

So they probably don’t lack the intention to drive me out either.

Ever since these people barged in here, they’ve been busy glancing at Dad or stealing looks at him.

‘They were watching Dad’s reactions moment by moment.’

That’s fortunate.

‘It seems they were planning to somehow provoke Dad into causing a scene.’

If Dad had stepped forward, it would have become a headache…

And just a few minutes later, I came to regret being so carelessly relieved.

“Ha, what does a mere child know! You’re just a bastard’s daughter, acting like a bastard!”

Thwack!

I’ve seen countless people fly away to become stars in the wind…

But I learned for the first time that when you seriously hit someone instead of just blowing them away, it makes such a tremendous sound.

Crash!

The floor cracked with a split.

So wind can split the ground too.

I froze in place and stared blankly. San Gongmin, who had been blown away, couldn’t move a muscle.

“…How dare you.”

Why am I wrapped in wind and floating alone in the air?

There was nothing I could do except blink my eyes wide.

A little distance away, Dad was stepping on the neck of San Gongmin, who had fallen to the floor so hard he was practically embedded in it.

Since I could only see his back, I couldn’t tell Dad’s expression.

This lasted only briefly, as Dad slightly turned his head and glanced at me sideways.

I gulped.

His red eyes were flickering ominously.

I could only stare blankly, unable to do anything.

Dad spoke while glancing sideways.

For someone whose eyes had gone crazy, his voice was calm, which made it even more chilling.

“I didn’t make a contract… to let her receive this kind of treatment.”

…Contract?

What contract? Don’t tell me, the contract he made with me??

But wait a minute.

‘Dad…?’

You shouldn’t be stepping forward…

This shouldn’t be happening?!

* * *

San Gongmin trembled violently.

‘How did… it come to this?’

The foot stepping on his throat felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.

Sweat poured down his face. He wasn’t in his right mind from terror. At this rate, his neck might break…

That was his instinct as a warrior.

He felt the overwhelming difference in martial power between himself and the man before him, ‘Hei Bihu’.

No matter what he tried, he would die helplessly.

‘Why… did it come to this!’

The starting point of this whole affair flashed through his mind.

‘Provoke him by any means necessary. We must confirm it.’

‘…’

‘Whether that damned bastard Hei Bihu reacts.’

His master had whispered elegantly. She spoke harsh words without her expression wavering in the slightest.

‘Bihu’s daughter seems to be a genius. The test results have finally… reached my ears. Elder Sister doesn’t know yet.’

‘…’

‘San Gongmin, I’m counting on you. That little bitch will make a good tool. Stop her from practicing medicine in the market.’

His master brought her hand to her lips and laughed softly, “Huhu.”

‘Make her out to be a fraud. But if I say it like this, I can predict what my stupid warrior will do.’

San Gongmin flinched. It wasn’t wrong. Being an illiterate warrior, he obediently waited for his master’s orders.

‘I’ll tell you what to say at the crucial moment.’
