A wave of excitement surged in my chest. “Is it far from here? If we leave now, when will we get there?”

Verda looked at us with suspicion. “In this freezing weather, why are you heading up to Keardes Hill?”

“We need to find someone,” I answered with a smile.

“Find someone? Are you looking for the wonder doctor, Dr. Watts?” Verda’s eyes widened in realization.

Dr. Watts!

My heart raced. A wonder doctor with the same surname, it had to be Hughie!

“Yes, yes, that’s right.” I nodded eagerly. “Could you please tell me how to find Dr. Watts?”

“Sweetheart, come inside; it’s too cold out here,” Verda invited us into her house.

Inside, the room was cozy. Yura and I quickly sipped large mugs of drink to warm up.

“Thank you. Can you tell us more about Dr. Watts?” I asked.

Verda paused for a moment before answering, “Well, Dr. Watts is a bit of an odd one. For some reason, he insists on living at Keardes Hill. But he’s a good man. When the weather is nice, he often comes down to the town. If anyone’s sick, he’ll help them, and he’s a very skilled doctor.”

Yura and I exchanged a look. It must be him, we both thought.

Verda looked puzzled. “How do you know about Dr. Watts? He’s got a strange temper and doesn’t like anyone talking about him.”

“My grandfather was friends with him,” I replied honestly.

“I see,” Verda nodded. “Well, it’s been snowing in the mountains these past few days, so Dr. Watts won’t be coming down. You should stay in the town for a few days, wait for the weather to clear up, and then go find him.”
