The doctor sighed. "I'm sorry. We've done everything we can. How far the patient can recover now is entirely up to her."
Qin Siyang suddenly felt hollow inside.
Then the doctor added, "Right, we're ordinary doctors, so saving her really is beyond our abilities. But if the dean is willing to help, there might be a better chance."
"The dean?"
"Yes. Our dean is a Sequence Ability User, just like you. Her sequence ability is [Healer]."
Hope immediately rekindled in Qin Siyang. "How can I contact your dean?"
The doctor thought for a moment. "But our dean hasn't performed surgery in a long time. Even when the director of the Sequence Ability Management Bureau came here for treatment, she simply sent him to a hospital in another zone rather than treating him herself."
"Not even the Administration Bureau's director?" The hopes Qin Siyang had just begun to entertain were dashed once again.
He didn't believe he could get his hands on anything the Administration Bureau's director couldn't.
Money? The director certainly had more than he did.
Sequence Potions? The director probably had his own quota, no worse than Qin Siyang's.
And money and Sequence Potions were the only two things Qin Siyang currently had to bargain with.
It seemed neither could sway the hospital's dean.
Teacher Zhu's situation remained just as bleak.
Just then, the doctor's phone rang.
"Hello, Dean. Yes, it's me. Hmm? You want Qin Siyang to come to your office? Yes, he's right beside me. All right, understood."
The doctor looked at Qin Siyang in surprise. "The dean wants you to come to her office. I don't know why, either. But perhaps... she's willing to help you?"
Qin Siyang was surprised as well.
What did this dean see in him that made her want to meet him?
