[Main story blurb]
An underground doctor with no medical license but superb surgical skills has appeared in Yokohama.
But aside from his unrivaled medical skill, his notorious habit of charging exorbitant fees has also spread throughout Yokohama.
"If you want me to operate, bring me thirty million first."
>>>
1. On a rainy night, a red-haired assassin curled up in the corner of an alley lifts his head. Blood mingles with the rain, and his expression is calm.
"...Having taken other people's lives, I have no right to write their stories."
2. The gloomy-eyed boy with bandages can't understand why the other man values life so much, or why he's so angry with himself.
"Doctor, why do people live? Does life really have meaning?"
3. With his companion gravely ill, he faces the doctor's exorbitant fee. His blue eyes are resolute as he makes a solemn promise.
"I'm swearing to you not as the King of Sheep, but as Nakahara Chuuya. I will pay you back for this medical bill."
4. In the slums, a frail boy who is already sickly still grits his teeth and pleads.
"As long as you can save Gin, I'm willing to give up everything! Doctor, please save my sister!"
"In that case, let's get ready for surgery."
Before anyone knew it, an absolutely neutral, independent organization had come into being, outside the Three-Part Framework.
The Gravity Manipulator, the Unruly Mad Dog, the Ability-Canceler... All sorts of dangerous ability users belonged to it.
One day, the doctor was kidnapped and threatened.
The day after his kidnapping, a bunch of extremely dangerous people came looking for him.
Former assassin: Sorry, Doctor. Are you all right?
Gravity Manipulator: Which bastard dared lay a hand on the doctor? Want to feel what gravity is like?
Unruly Mad Dog: ... (killing intent)
Bandage Freak: Stop, Akutagawa. Letting them die like this would be far too easy.
"Yokohama Underground Organization -1"
Other organizations: ...That guy recruits so many ability users. Is he planning to take over Yokohama? He's terrifying. We absolutely can't let him live!
The doctor glanced back at the growing number of people staying in his clinic (and home).
Silence.
BJ: ...This really is just a clinic. I'm just an ordinary surgeon.
[Tips]
1. The doctor's feelings toward Pinocchio are fatherly.
2. BJ is a medical polymath, including veterinary medicine.
3. The surgical cases are based on references. The author isn't a medical student, and BJ's original work has science-fiction elements, so please be understanding.
Theme: A doctor's heart is full of compassion; heal the sick and save lives
