Taking Firefly Shopping [Second Update]

At this moment, Weiba also spoke up for Huohuo, saying, "Your brother actually went online to buy cute girls. I don't know if he's going to use them for experiments or something."

Before it could finish speaking, Ji Yuan's sealing spell landed on its tail, instantly immobilizing it and rendering it unable to move.

"Is that what you two think of me?" Ji Yuan flicked Sushang's head. He could let Huohuo off the hook, but the poor little thing cried terribly even without being hit. Reaching out to pat her head, Ji Yuan then went to the glass cabinet.

He had already seen the note written on it, and he picked it up to see what it was.

There were no words on it, just simple line drawings of four human faces.

Kafka with a big smile, Silver Wolf blowing bubbles, Blade with a helpless look, and the cool mecha Sam.

Upon seeing this, Ji Yuan put down his phone and said to Huohuo Sushang, "Alright, I understand now. This was indeed a gift from someone else."

"Dude, you're committing a crime!"

Sushang was hit on the head by Ji Yuan again.

"You take a good look at this patient. This was brought here by someone for me and Teacher Ruan Mei to treat. Okay, Sushang, give me a hand and help me carry this inside."

"Oh, I see. Then let's quickly take this box inside and let Ms. Nguyen Mai take a good look at how to treat it."

Upon hearing this, Sushang quickly went behind the glass cabinet to help Ji Yuan set it up. With her immense strength, Sushang easily lifted the back of the box, and the two siblings worked together to carry the large glass cabinet into the room.

Ruan Mei was still sitting on the sofa, observing the creature she had casually created. Seeing Ji Yuan and Sushang carrying boxes in, she tilted her head and said with interest, "It seems that before I've even had a chance to study that fragment, Ji Yuan, you've already given me another new problem."

"These are the test samples that Kafka said they would send over."

"Entropy Loss Syndrome?"

Nguyen Mai showed an expression of interest.

Pointing to the master bedroom upstairs, she said to Ji Yuan, "Come on, carry her upstairs first."

"Um."

Ji Yuan nodded, and then continued to carry the glass cabinet up to the master bedroom with Sushang.

Upon reaching his master bedroom, Ji Yuan's expression was quite complicated. Ruan Mei, Tingyun, Phantylia had all stayed in this master bedroom recently, but he, the rightful owner, had barely slept there for more than a few days.

No, I'll just buy the neighbor's house and knock down their yard.

As he thought about it, he opened the door. He then saw that his master bedroom was completely occupied by a huge U-shaped experimental table. Ji Yuan's poor bed was squeezed into the far corner. And on it, several furry little animals of unknown abilities were currently lying.

Ruan Mei moved the experimental table around, finally making room to put the glass cabinet inside. The space was so small that it was difficult for Ji Yuan, who was carrying the head of the glass cabinet, to get out.

But it's alright, we might as well just start researching it.

Ji Yuan looked at Sushang and said, "Sushang, you should leave first. We need to go and check on the patient's condition."

"Okay, I understand."

Sushang left the room.

Ruan Mei and Ji Yuan stood on either side of the glass case, carefully examining the girl inside.

The girl was wearing a hospital gown; she was very thin, and her wrists, which peeked out from the wide sleeves, were as thin as bamboo poles, and her skin was almost bloodless. More than a dozen tubes were inserted into her arm, from which various nutrients were being administered.

He was wearing a respirator to keep absorbing oxygen from the outside world.

Her face was pale and thin, but it was still clear that she was a very beautiful girl in good health. Her long white hair was loose, with only a hairband tied around her forehead.

"Is this the patient with Entropy Loss Syndrome?"

Ruan Mei looked at him and said softly.

"It should be her. Otherwise, there would be no reason for those Stellaron Hunter to have sent her here."

At this moment, Nguyen Mai opened the glass cabinet, exposing the girl to the air.

This isn't over yet.

Ruan Mei reached out and tore the thin hospital gown into shreds, revealing the girl's body intact to Ji Yuan and Ruan Mei.

In Nguyen Mai's eyes, this was just an experimental subject, not a patient.

Her skin looked even paler inside the hospital gown; she was so thin that even looking at her whole body evoked pity.

However, seeing this, Ji Yuan felt a little embarrassed and wanted to turn his head away. But just as he was about to turn his head, Ruan Mei, who suddenly appeared beside him, grabbed his chin.

"She's a patient in your eyes, but a guinea pig in mine. If you don't care, don't blame me for doing whatever I want to her."

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan had no choice but to turn his head and observe the girl together with Ruan Mei.

Entropy Loss Syndrome is a condition in which physical structures undergo irreversible, chronic dissociation. From a life science perspective, Ji Yuan and Ruan Mei used instruments to observe that the Entropy Loss Syndrome in a young girl caused the structures in her body to gradually disappear.

Ruan Mei pulled out the needles from the girl's body and checked the medicine injected into them. After checking, she turned to Ji Yuan and said, "Ji Yuan, go get the contents of my first and third culture dishes and infuse her with life force first."

Ji Yuan nodded.

Holding the contents of the two petri dishes, his lips twitched slightly. These substances, originally intended to allow animals to move normally, would become extremely violent in a human body, causing considerable torment to the girl's mind and body.

However, these things do work, replenishing the vitality her body lacks. In a sense, this can be considered healing and saving a life.

Ji Yuan carefully injected the potion into the girl in front of him. Beside him, Ruan Mei also reached out and ran her fingertips over several parts of the girl's body.

The drug produced an extremely violent reaction the moment it entered the girl's body.

Her body erupted in fierce struggle, but Ruan Mei held her down firmly. Amidst this struggle, Ji Yuan's body visibly began to regain its color.

Seeing this, Nguyen Mai smiled with satisfaction.

"Well, judging from those medicines, the medicines that maintain life energy are effective. But it seems she used too many drugs before, and her body has naturally developed an antibody against that life energy. The previous medicines are no longer effective, so we have to use some forceful methods."

Judging from the results, Ms. Ruan Mei's method was very effective, and the girl's health visibly improved. However, the side effects were also quite obvious; it's likely that other biological drugs will be less effective after Ms. Ruan Mei finishes using this medication.

Moreover, Ji Yuan and Ruan Mei frowned as they observed the changes in the girl's body.

The Entropy Loss Syndrome continued, not only weakening her vitality but also steadily reducing the girl's physical potential. Simply put, if this girl had a health bar, her maximum health would be 100, and the Entropy Loss Syndrome was eroding that potential, from 100 to 99, then to 98...

Even if you replenish your health, it won't work once you reach the maximum health.

All Nguyen Mai can do now is keep the girl at full health and improve her condition slightly.

After finishing these tasks, Ruan Mei approached Ji Yuan and, examining the girl, said, "We can continue observing her after she wakes up. Ji Yuan, you will be in charge of the next phase of the observation. Only after obtaining suitable data can we proceed with our next plan."

"Um."

At this moment, the girl slowly opened her eyes.

"Ouch, that hurts!"

The girl couldn't help but let out a mournful cry. The remaining energy in her body was still flowing, leaving her weak and unable to absorb any nourishment; her whole body ached terribly.

It took her quite a while to get used to it before she could barely bear it.

Only then did she realize that two pairs of eyes were watching her, and that she herself was completely naked.

She quickly curled up her body.

"Don't be nervous. We are all professional researchers and will only look at you with a scientific eye," Ruan Mei said nonchalantly.

After saying that,

She added one more sentence.

"Besides, there's nothing to see in your body."

"Well, you can't just leave it exposed like that."

The girl was a little aggrieved and a little shy.

As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Ji Yuan.

At this moment, Ji Yuan quickly handed the girl his T-shirt, which was still lying in the room.

The girl quickly grabbed Ji Yuan's T-shirt and put it on.

She was petite, Ji Yuan's T-shirt became a knee-length dress on her.

Feeling her body being covered, the girl breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said to Ji Yuan, "Thank you, Mr. Ji Yuan."

"Just call me Ji Yuan. By the way, what's your name?"

"My name is Firefly."

"Um."

Ji Yuan nodded, acknowledging the name. Then, seeing Firefly kneeling in the glass case, he immediately said, "Your body should be able to move freely now. Come out of this glass case first."

"Um."

Firefly nodded, then stood up from the glass case.

After standing up, she looked down and searched inside the glass cabinet.

What are you doing?

"Looking for my wallet! That's my living expenses while I'm here for medical treatment... Hey, found it!"

Firefly took out a small wallet from the cabinet and smiled happily.

Chapter 140 Taking Firefly Shopping [Second Update]

Firefly held the small purse, a satisfied expression on her face.

She reached for her pocket, only to realize that she was only wearing a Ji Yuan T-shirt, with nowhere to put her wallet. Firefly fiddled with it for a while, unsure what to do.

Ji Yuan smiled and said to Firefly, "Let me find you a set of clothes from Changchang to change into first. Later, I'll take you outside to buy a few more sets of clothes."

"That would be too much trouble for you."

Firefly reluctantly agreed.

She then looked outside, intending to take a step outside.

Although she had been infused with a lot of life energy, her body was still very weak. When she stepped out of the glass cabinet, she almost lost her balance and fell. Fortunately, Ji Yuan, who was standing nearby, reacted quickly and caught her small body.

"Thanks."

Firefly was held in Ji Yuan's arms, her face slightly flushed.

"It's alright. You're my patient now, so of course I have to take care of your safety," Ji Yuan said to her casually.

"Um."

Firefly nodded and then walked outside.

Her steps faltered slightly, Ji Yuan quickly grabbed one of her arms and helped her leave.

When they reached the door, Ji Yuan called out to Sushang, who was in the living room, "Changchang, come here, lend her a set of clothes."

"Huh? What happened, bro?"

Sushang Chang rushed up and asked Ji Yuan.

Then, seeing the Firefly stand up, she exclaimed in surprise, "Wait, how did you survive?"

"I've never died, okay?"

Firefly was speechless.

Ji Yuan then explained Firefly's situation to Sushang. After listening to Firefly's account, Sushang nodded in understanding.

"I see, I understand now." Sushang took Firefly's hand and walked into her room.

Firefly subconsciously turned to look at Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan nodded affirmatively.

At this moment, Ruan Mei walked up to Ji Yuan and commented on him. "You were clearly Stellaron Hunter who came to monitor you, but you are surprisingly kind and naive."

"Her main focus is on treating illnesses."

Like Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan could tell at a glance that Firefly had other purposes besides healing. However, Ruan Mei was researching Entropy Loss Syndrome, and Ji Yuan wanted to save lives, so they both decided to keep Firefly.

A girl suffering from a serious illness can easily evoke the compassion of a kind-hearted young man like Ji Yuan, who is full of humanity.

"Come to my place tonight, and we'll take a good look at this Entropy Loss Syndrome."

Ruan Mei suddenly turned to Ji Yuan.

At the same time, she gently patted Ji Yuan's buttocks.

"Um."
