Creepy Pharmacist: All my patients are scary!

Chapter 344: Abnormal Creatures and the Cat-Eared Girl

Half an hour later.

Lynn opened his dead-fish eyes, looked up at the signboard on the dusty building in front of him, and felt a strong sense of being targeted.

Written on it were several large characters:

[Abnormal Creatures Outpatient Center]

And it was even the Difficult and Complicated Cases Department.

He had heard from the Matriarch that this place treated some very abnormal creatures—the kind with strange illnesses that were somewhat problematic but not exactly major diseases.

Moreover, the creatures coming here for treatment would often make some rather difficult-to-fulfill requests.

But it was indeed quiet.

However, Lynn just couldn't figure out why this job was supposedly suitable for him.

Knock knock knock—Lynn knocked on the door.

"Anyone there? I'm the intern reporting for duty here, arranged by the Matriarch!"

Lynn opened his dead-fish eyes. Seeing no one answer, he had no choice but to push the door open and walk in.

It was dim inside.

Compared to the frantic, fast-paced rhythm of the Starry Sanctuary over there, this place felt like an entirely different world, extremely quiet.

Lynn scanned the area and finally settled his gaze on the counter.

A piece of parchment was placed on the counter.

It read:

[I am the head of the Outpatient Department here. I have received the Matriarch's message. Thank you very much for sending someone to assist with my work amidst her busy schedule. Good Doctor, sir, after you see this note, let me explain the work system here to you in detail meow~]

[We operate on a two-shift system here. I take the day shift, and you are responsible for the night shift, working twelve hours each day. Your task is to handle all the creatures who come for treatment during your shift and do your best to help them return to normal meow~]

[Of course, it's okay if they can't return to normal, as most of them are regulars anyway. Just try not to make them more abnormal.]

[The patient records cabinet contains the medical records for every patient meow~]

[Sincerely.]

Lynn (;

￣д￣).

So casual?

Could it be that the entire clinic has only two people, including him?

And they work in shifts?

And they're in such a hurry to get off work?

Also, why use a cutesy tone like "meow" even in a letter?

That's really strange!

Lynn shrugged, sat down in the chair in front of the counter, lit a candle, and officially began his duties.

The place wasn't big.

On both sides were long hospital corridors, and behind was a storage room. Compared to the high standards of the Starry Sanctuary, this place was as shabby as his Bloodsaw Potion Shop.

But since he was here, he might as well make the best of it!

No matter what department it is, putting effort into the work is the virtue of a model youth.

Lynn closed his eyes and waited quietly.

Time passed slowly.

It was already midnight.

Knock knock knock—

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Lynn immediately opened his eyes and looked up, saying, "Come in!"

The door creaked open from the outside, and a furry paw appeared before Lynn.

"Doctor, I'm here for a check-up meow~"

A pair of furry ears instantly appeared in front of Lynn.

Lynn was stunned for a moment.

Judging by the voice, could it be...

A cat-eared girl?

Lynn immediately sat up straight. For some reason, he suddenly wasn't sleepy anymore.

At the same time, the panel for that "cat-eared girl" appeared before his eyes.

[Dog-Eared Girl]

[Level]: 66

[Race]: Special variant of canine humanoid creature.

[Alignment]: Neutral Good

[Combat Ability]: Doesn't really have any combat power, but please don't underestimate her influence.

[Introduction]: A strange creature from an unknown world. Although she is a dog, she firmly believes she is a cat. But please don't think she's harmless. It seems that if you spend some time with her or fail to meet certain demands she makes, you might undergo some strange changes...

At the same time the panel appeared.

That furry creature pushed the door open, revealing a wagging, swaying tail and a dog's face.

"Are you the new doctor meow? Hello meow~"

The dog-eared girl looked up cutely, holding a kitten plushie in her arms, and stuck out her tongue at Lynn.

Lynn's gaze instantly froze.

How to describe it?

If you only listened to the voice, it was indeed very sweet and adorable, like a petite, cute cat-eared little girl meowing sweetly at you.

Your mind could easily conjure countless adorable images.

But the creature standing in front of him... how to put it?

It was like an upright-walking Akita dog meowing at you, giving you an indescribable sense of dissonance.

Lynn quickly composed himself, cleared his throat, and said:

"I am indeed new here. You can call me Doctor Good Doctor. May I ask what to call you, miss?"

That dog-eared girl wagged her tail cutely and said:

"You can call me Miaomiao meow, Doctor."

Lynn: "..."

He finally couldn't help but ask (￣ω￣;

): "Miaomiao? A very nice name. But aren't you a dog? Why do you meow like a cat?"

The dog-eared girl was stunned, looking slightly frightened. "But I'm clearly a cat meow? How could I possibly be a dog?"

"..."

Lynn finally understood.

Why this place was called the Abnormal Creatures Outpatient Center.

It really wasn't very normal!

Lynn calmed down and said seriously:

"Let's talk about that topic another time. May I ask, miss, if you have any discomfort in your body?"

The dog-eared girl skillfully sat down in front of the counter, hugged the kitten plushie in her arms, sighed, and said worriedly:

"It's like this, Doctor. I've indeed encountered something very troubling meow. Because of this, I've been having nightmares all night long meow, and the previous doctor uncle couldn't cure it either, so I can only come here every day meow."

Lynn asked hesitantly, "What illness?"

"It's a bit embarrassing meow~"

Lynn thought for a moment, then asked her to extend her paw, intending to diagnose her.

Almost instantly, a system prompt sounded in Lynn's ear.

[Ding! The target has triggered your Random Diagnosis.]

[Ding! You have discovered the target's illness: Severe Cynophobia.]

[Severe Cynophobia]: A special mental illness. Creatures suffering from this illness exhibit extreme fear and panic towards any canine animals. Even anything related to "dogs" can cause them unavoidable terror.

Lynn was immediately shocked.

"You're afraid of dogs?!"

That dog-eared girl trembled in fear, saying, "Please... please don't mention that word!"

Although he still found it hard to believe, Lynn quickly composed himself out of professional medical ethics.

He adjusted his monocle and said seriously, "Can you tell me the specific situation meow?"
