Standing beside a landscaped arrangement of green potted plants, the doctor in a white coat flipped through the holographic document before him. He stroked his stubbled chin with his other hand and casually asked,

Those procedures were not particularly troublesome. At most, they cost a little money.

The sleep chamber slowly opened.
With the assistance of a doctor, a nurse, and two medical bionic attendants, the man lying on the hospital bed slowly opened his eyes.
"...Where is this?"
"Jinling Third Hospital. Welcome to the future. The
