I opened a clinic in the Abyss World
Chapter 87 The Girl Asks a Question
Truman Estate.
In the quaint study, in front of a bookshelf several meters high, the two sat facing each other across the desk, the sandalwood incense smoke rising in wisps, creating an exceptionally quiet atmosphere.
"Grandpa, I think this is our best chance to bring down the Judson family." Roland broke the silence. "Elton has been expanding his Black Guard over the past two years. On the surface, there are three hundred people, but the actual number has exceeded four hundred, and it is still growing. I think he wants to wipe out the three of us and completely control the Abyss."
The old man sitting opposite him put down his book, looking at him with a half-smile. "Do you have a plan? What are your chances of success?"
The old man was Joseph, the patriarch of the Trus family and Roland's father.
"If the Harriman family is truly willing to cooperate, and if they can also turn the adventurers who were forcibly recruited into the Black Guard against their own side, we have a 70% chance of success," Roland said.
"How can you be so sure the Harriman family will cooperate sincerely? And how can you guarantee you can turn the Dark Guard? Your 70% chance of success seems questionable," Joseph shook his head. "You have to prepare for the worst, not anticipate the best."
"Over the years, we've also accumulated some external support. With the aversion potion, even if we're the only ones going all out, our chances of winning are no less than 40%," Roland said. "Now is the best time to strike. The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for us."
"I agree with your judgment." Joseph nodded slightly. "But we must involve the Harriman family. Alfred, that old fox, is cunning. If we fight Elton to the death, they will reap the benefits and the Abyss will be their sole power."

Dirk has no sons, only one daughter, Diana. Although he is the clan leader, there has always been opposition within the clan to his desire to pass the position to Diana.
Dirk's brother has a son named Billy, who is a few years older than Diana. Over the years, the father and son have been quite active in the clan, gaining the support of many elders, and are vying for the position of heir.
Alfred watched all this unfold, neither stopping nor approving, leaving plenty of room for interpretation.
Diana is here today, having already spoken with Dirk beforehand.
Rather than handing the Harriman family over to that good-for-nothing Billy, Dirk would rather trust his daughter, who, at least in recent years, has demonstrated the ability to stand on her own.
Ultimately, however, the final decision rests with Alfred.
Today, Diana will discuss the fate of the Harriman family and its future possibilities.
If she can accomplish this, Billy will be completely out of the game and will have no chance to compete with her anymore.
"Grandpa, this is a potion aversion potion that can cure potion addiction." Diana gently placed the potion bottle on the chessboard. "Taking this will not only cure the addiction, but also give you a strong aversion to potions."
Alfred's smile froze as he looked at the small vial of potion on the chessboard, then up at Diana, and said incredulously, "You're saying this potion can cure potions?"
"Yes, it has been tested and the drug is very effective," Diana nodded.
Alfred picked up the vial, examined the brown liquid inside the crystal bottle, and then looked at Diana, asking, "This is good stuff. Where did you get it?"
"It was developed by a doctor named Charlotte on Bacca Street."
"I heard you've deployed a lot of Fox Guards to patrol Baka Street recently, is it all for him?"
"Yes, this doctor is quite skilled. I originally wanted to win him over and open a large clinic on Bacca Street so that our Harriman family could also have its own large clinic."
However, he was targeted by Carol, who sent people to kill him several times. Last night, she even sent a level four werewolf to assassinate him, so I temporarily brought him to the manor.
"He took out this potion, the Aversion Potion, wanting to cooperate with our Harriman family to jointly eliminate the Judson family," Diana replied.

"Eliminate the Judson family?" Alfred chuckled. "This kid has quite the nerve. Does he think Elton's four hundred Black Guards are pushovers?"
"So he found Roland of the Duru family, intending to join forces with both our families to deal with the Judson family," Diana explained.
"The Duru family..." Alfred pondered, "Joseph isn't stupid. Would he really be willing to fight the Judson family to the death for that kid?"
"Father, in the past two years, Elton has been very ambitious, swallowing up a lot of territory from the Daniel family, and he has also set his sights on our two families."
"The potion has already begun to infiltrate our territory, and they are constantly recruiting more Dark Guards. If we don't take the initiative, it won't be long before they have to swallow up both of our families," Dirk said with a grave expression.
"Elton is greedy and a menace. If the Abyss is completely consumed by the potion, the Harriman family will indeed have nowhere to retreat." Alfred sighed and looked at Diana, saying, "We must be cautious about this cooperation. We must also get the Duru family fully involved, lest we charge ahead while they reap the benefits from behind."
"So, you agree?" Diana's face lit up with joy.
"If this stuff can turn a hundred Black Guardians against their will, I'll personally participate when you make your move," Alfred said calmly, shaking the vial in his hand.

Charlotte spent an afternoon finally completing the final draft of the house plans.
The first floor has been redesigned, with two operating rooms and an additional inpatient ward. There are also a medicine-making room and a laboratory. The diagnostic room has been streamlined, resulting in a more rational layout.
The backyard and well were preserved.
The second floor has four rooms, each with its own bathroom, built to the standards of the Diana Villa. It uses a magic array for flushing to achieve complete odor control, and each room comes standard with a large bathtub.
You must always trust the craftsmanship of the artisans in the magical world.
If technology isn't enough, magic will do.
With a monthly rent of 10000 copper coins, it would be a waste of my wallet not to make myself more comfortable.
The kitchen will definitely be kept, with the layout unchanged, an earthen stove and a large pot, perfect!
Looking at the blueprints in her hand, Charlotte felt that even capitalists would weep.
The only thing that worried him was the construction period. Such a high-end custom-made villa would probably take at least half a year to complete.
He'll need to find a shop first to continue operating.
As a doctor, I cannot neglect my professional duties.
The monthly rent of 10,000 copper coins put pressure on him.
After handing the blueprints to Buddy, Agatha brought him dinner.
Perhaps he had overexerted himself with math tutoring last night, because the little fox looked at him with a hint of resentment.
"Young lady, how about we try the water inlet and outlet system tonight?" Charlotte asked with a smile.
"I refuse!" Agatha looked frightened and turned to run away.
Arithmetic is terrifying!
