Upon seeing him, Denny flashed a cheeky smile. “What are you doing inside? What took you so long to answer the door?”

Howard answered innocently, “Denny, I-I think I’m ill. My head is burning up. Am I going to die?”

Denny’s expression changed abruptly. Standing on his tiptoes, he placed his hand on Howard’s forehead. “Oh, you’re burning! I’ll go get Dr. Walker now.”

Jim Walker was the doctor working for Imperial Hotel. Normally, the employees would seek treatment from him if they suffered from fever or headaches.

After Denny’s figure disappeared from sight, Howard slumped.

My wound has been festering for some time, so I hope Dr. Walker doesn’t realize that I’m hurt.

Howard did not stop working even after he suffered an injury. He did not let anyone know he was shot in the leg.
