After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 258

Melissa’s side, on the other hand, was having quite a lot of fun as everyone else. Her brother gave her a lot of gold as pocket money. However, she was not careless about it. After all, even if Matthew said it was ’pocket money’, she knew it was a good portion of his savings.

Her custom tour joined with some other groups at first, and she ended up eating quite a bit from the stalls. She had also talked a lot with different people, chatting about the most mundane things.

It had been a long time since she engaged in small talk with strangers.

They passed through several parks, especially the spot old people frequented to exercise together. It was both amusing and heart-warming: the way old people could still live normally in this situation.

Her guided tour, however, soon segregated from the others because she took a personalized medicinal tour, which would end up in two places: the clinic and the pharmacy.

They soon reached the clinic and Melissa couldn’t help but study its structure for a bit. Melissa looked up and saw the large carved signage both in Terran with in an unfamiliar language as a subtitle.

She also noted that the clinic had a similar architectural style as the others. The difference was there were more windows and its facade was relatively wider than the other buildings as it occupied a few more lots.

It was also bustling with activity.

Of course, a clinic having so many people was not a good thing, but the patients themselves seemed to be laughing at themselves and she couldn’t help but smile as she watched.

"So… did you get Betty to agree on a date with you?" A man asked his friend as they exited the building.

The other blushed. "No. I want to at least be her level first!"

"Well, courageous!" His friend said, patting his shoulders. "To the Training Hall!!"

"To the Training Hall!!"

And so they went in a direction, presumably to this so-called Training Hall, even with their bandages.

The guide watched the exchange with her with a similar smile, before turning to look at Melissa to explain. "Our healer is… very beautiful."

"Hmm, I understand."

Melissa’s current target was Betty, the NPC healer who was supposedly in here at the moment. And now she just learned that this healer was also very beautiful.

Not knowing what to expect, she entered the health center and was a little startled at the flurry of activities. However, despite the fast-paced actions, Melissa still felt that it was organized and reminded her of modern efficiencies.

There seemed to have been a little accident, and this caused the staff to be particularly busy.

As such, the two of them had to walk near the walls to avoid disrupting the activities. At the same time, the two of them discussed its interior.

"It seems a bit small, especially now that our population is growing. However, I heard another clinic would be built soon. It’s expected to be opened within a week or so," the guide explained. "It’s to be located near the Southwest gate. It was apparently to deal with the injuries of Beast tides and wars."

"That’s amazing…" Melissa couldn’t help but say, and the guide looked flattered as if she was praising her directly.

"Yes, yes it is." She said. If the girl had a tail, Melissa mused it would be wagging now.

It was amusing how the citizens identified so much and so deeply with their territory even only after a couple of weeks. It really took care of them, it seemed.

"Well, I’ll stay here and go around on my own." She said, standing in front of the clinic. "You can go now, thank you."

She then handed him some silver. "Keep the change."
