Chapter 873
In a daze, Crystal felt as if she had been taken out of the cell. There was a familiar smell of disinfectant in her nose.
She opened her eyes with some difficulty. The first thing she saw was the light above her head, which was
somewhat dazzling.
"You're awake." The middle-aged woman came over and touched her forehead. "Well, your fever has subsided a
little. You little girl, how can you hide the fact that you're on a fever? What if something serious happens?"
Crystal opened her mouth in confusion. She wanted to say that she didn't know he had a fever, but she knew that
she couldn't make a sound, so she simply shut up.
The doctor said, "It's good that the fever has subsided. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Remember to eat it on
time. You may have caught a cold, but you should also pay attention to it. A severe cold can cost one's life."
Crystal nodded obediently.

alive, she cried out, "Last night, you were burned red all over. I thought you were dying."
Crystal thanked her silently. She knew that it was this woman who had called a doctor for her.
"What are you thanking me for?" Although she did not understand the lip language, the woman understood the
meaning of her bow and said, "I think you are about the same age as my daughter. You can just call me Aunt
Tiffany."
She patted the seat beside her and said, "Come and sit down."
Crystal walked over slowly. Aunt Tiffany said, "I think you've caught a cold. What's wrong? Did the police in the
police station abuse you?"
Crystal shook her head.
Aunt Tiffany said, "That's right. They don't abuse suspects anymore in this civilized era... Then what's wrong with
you? You were on such a high fever last night."
Crystal felt that it was because she slept on restraint a chair for the whole night on the rainy night. City W was a
northern city, unlike the warm south. She could wear a short-sleeved shirt in Sunshine Village in October, but she
had to wear a coat in City W. The weather in late October was already very cold, so it seemed reasonable for her to
catch a cold.
Aunt Tiffany seemed to be very interested in the reason for her imprisonment. She asked again, "Just make some
gestures. Let me guess."
Crystal hesitated for a moment and made a killing move. Aunt Tiffany snorted. "You're such a tiny girl. How can you
kill someone?"
Crystal smiled bitterly.
Aunt Tiffany patted Crystal's shoulder and said, "It's okay. Everyone is the same here. If you perform well, they will
release you early. Don't think too much. Take your medicine and take good care of yourself."
Crystal nodded gently.

She was dizzy and sweating at night. She went to the infirmary several times. The doctor was confused. "Why didn't
you get better after taking the medicine? ... You took the medicine on time, didn't you? Did you secretly throw it
away?"
Crystal quickly shook her head to show that she did take the medicine obediently.
"That's strange..." The doctor thought for a moment and said, "Well, I have a meeting later. I don't have time today.
I'll make a note tomorrow and take you to the hospital. It can't go on like this."
She might be tortured to death by her sickness before she went to court.
Crystal went back to the cell with her head down.
She did take the medicine on time. How could her illness not be cured?
She was not the kind of person to give up whenever she was in trouble. Even if she was in a desperate situation
now, she did not want to give up her life. If she would really be sentenced, she would wait in prison. After she was
released, she would look for Harold.
