Pretty bloody, I see...
Ear piercing wound caused by blunt jewellery, I presume?
You found it, huh...?
Nothing gets by you...
Doctors and I don't exactly mix...
We have to go to the doctor...
Is it that bad?
The consultation room is just three steps from here.
Latest medical equipment... Disinfectant...
Well, maybe five...
Sorry to say...
Well...Yes, I think we have that.
So, you're a doctor, then?
Sit down on this bed.
Another of my secrets is revealed.
It's not exactly bad... But still, a wound is a wound.
It almost looks like an earring itself, a little red flower...
Hmmmm...
You tried to force the earring in, right?
You're one remarkable detective...
I thought the blood would have dried up by now.
This may sting a tad...
Let me do it myself.

Just... Please take better care of your ears.
If not for yourself, then do it for me.
I don't really understand the desire to keep piercing your ears.
Frankly...
All the better to hear you with!
May I again if I come get hurt?
Yes, yes...
Doctor, y e s sir...
By the way, I'm quite fond of that cabinet of yours...
Sorry, didn't catch that. My ears mustn't have enough holes...
Oh, what a shame!
No need for me to thank you, then!
