Lü Yongchang silently studied the document before him, once again confirming his suspicions about the system's effects.
Sure enough, the system was gradually improving his physical condition, with the improvements focused on his brain.
Doctor Wen chuckled at Lü Yongchang's silence.
"Don't worry. Apart from Zero, only the Head Councillor and I know about these test results."
Lü Yongchang nodded slightly.
He wasn't worried that others would learn this supposed secret and become suspicious. Still, to be safe, the fewer people who knew about this "abnormal condition," the better.
It seemed the Head Councillor had already taken care of everything for him.
"Oh, right," Lü Yongchang asked again. "When can I leave the hospital?"
"Hmm?" Doctor Wen raised an eyebrow. "In such a hurry?"
"You only just woke up from a coma. Ideally, you should rest here under observation for another day or two."
"...Could I be discharged today?" Lü Yongchang asked after a moment's thought. "I need to carry out some very important research."
"It concerns humanity's future."
He added that last remark as an afterthought.
Doctor Wen's expression immediately grew serious.
She said nothing, merely turning to check the readings on the equipment beside her. Only after confirming that nothing was wrong did she nod. "All right. In that case, I won't keep you."
"But there's one more thing I should remind you of."
Lü Yongchang deftly removed the IV catheter from his body as he gave Doctor Wen a questioning look.
"The young woman who brought you here is called Su Yutong, isn't she?" A knowing smile appeared on Doctor Wen's lips. "She was crying her eyes out. Are you sure you don't want to comfort her?"
Lü Yongchang nodded with a rueful smile.
"All right. Thanks for reminding me."
"Zero, call Fang Xu for me,"
