Chapter 9: It's a Motorcycle This Time

As the nurse pushed open the door to the examination room, Li Du saw a very amusing sight.
Flagstaff was a little town with a small population. It was not unexpected that there were no patients in the examination room, but only a young, blonde, female doctor.
She wore a white coat, with her blonde hair falling on her shoulders like strands of golden willow. From the side, Li Du could see the vivacious curve formed by her slim body.
When the door was opened, she first calmly started operating the mouse. However, perhaps because the computer didn't respond, her actions quickly became agitated as she took out the keyboard with her left hand, and began tapping.
However, those taps quickly turned into unrestrained smashing, while her right hand was frantically moving the mouse. As she turned her head in their direction, Li Du was able to see a beautiful but panicked face. The nurse grinned at the sight. ”Hi, Sophie, my cute damsel, were you covertly browsing Amazon again?”
Sophie shook her head hard, causing her blonde hair to sway like a delicate willow being caressed by a gentle spring breeze. ”Ah, of course not! I swear to God, I wasn't browsing Amazon!”
”Then you were browsing e-Bay,” the nurse confidently assumed.
Sophie continued to shake her head. ”No, I, I didn't…”
”Do you swear to God?” The nurse pressed.
Hearing that, the doctor let out a defeated look before murmuring, ”Shoot, the computer froze again. Why can't the hospital give us a newer one?”
”Alright Dr. Sophie, let's get to work. There's a kitten here that's hurt very badly and needs your immediate attention,” the nurse said with a smile.
”Kitten?” As Li Du looked at the animal in his arms, he couldn't help but question whether it could really be considered a kitten.
At this time, Ah Meow had already lost all its previous energy and could only droop its head while occasionally letting out a small ”Meow.”
At the sight of the injured yellow cat, Sophie's embarrassment was gone, and she became confident and stern.
After putting on a pair of latex gloves, she opened the hunting trap and started diagnosing. ”It is facing a substantial hip injury, including pelvic contraction and possible femur damage. Also, its lumbar fascia and sartorius have various degrees of tear. Its longissimus thoracis and tail muscle were also damaged…
”Thank God, the clamp doesn't seem to have hurt any major arteries, but I can't determine whether or not its ureter, bladder, or colon are hurt. To be completely certain, I'll have to do a CT scan.”
”Can you help it?” Li Du asked.
Sophie frowned as she looked at him. He wasn't quite sure why, but the movement of her brows reminded him of his childhood memories of rolling up willow leaves to make whistles.
”The outer injuries can be easily patched, but I will require more advanced equipment to determine the degree of organ impairment and other inner injuries. You are too careless, how can you put hunting traps inside your house?”
”This isn't my cat, I found it in the wilderness. Can this hospital provide the necessary equipment for further care?”
Nodding her head, Sophie answered, ”Of course, but I suggest you find an actual animal clinic.”
”Why? Does this one not accept animals?”
”No, it's not like that. It's just that the fees here are a lot more expensive than in a vet. I'm almost certain that your cat doesn't have health insurance, so the cost is going to be quite substantial.”
Li Du understood now, but he didn't care. He had just earned more than three thousand dollars. It wouldn't be too costly to spend some money on curing the cat.
