The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows episode 4 recap

The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows episode 4, titled A Righteous Hero, saw Krishna realize she had made a mistake while trying to apprehend Zenos. She believed he was a child trafficker but only realized later that he had saved Lily, not kidnapped her.
The anime later saw Krishna use Zenos' home as a base of operations to search for the slum's mediator. Amidst this, Zophia gave her a lead on the child trafficking case. While Krishna did not believe an aristocrat was behind it, she followed the lead.
Zophia's lead was correct, and aristocrat Calendor was indeed a child trafficker. Just as Krishna tried rescuing the children, Calendor shot her. Fortunately, Zenos and Zophia arrived on time and saved Krishna and the children.
What to expect from The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows episode 5?

The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows episode 5, titled A Place To Belong, will most likely see Krishna become an ally to Zenos. As seen in the anime, anyone Zenos helped started sticking close to him. Similarly, after Zenos helped Krishna, she might begin visiting him often.
Additionally, the upcoming anime episode could introduce a new story arc. When Krishna's superior asked her to find the mediator in the slums, she had gotten close to him. The chances are that the commander will go after the mediator himself.
