Luo Fei told his aunt to go back to her room first, then quickly walked to the corner of the corridor and pressed the answer button.

"Director Zhou."

"Comrade Luo Fei," Zhou Mingyu's voice came through the receiver, a few beats faster than usual, "the medicine you need, as well as the medical team, have completed all the emergency approvals and are on their way to Chongnan City."

Luo Fei's heart began to beat slightly faster.

"We expect to arrive at Chongnan People's Hospital around 3 p.m. today."

Zhou Mingyu continued, "The team is led by Academician Sun Jimin, a leading figure in the field of hematology in China. He will personally oversee this treatment. The team also includes top-notch clinical pharmacists, nursing experts, and security personnel."

Academician Sun Jimin? Although Luo Fei was not a medical student, he had vaguely heard of this national treasure-level expert.

The fact that he personally took charge shows how much importance the country attaches to this matter.

"Thank you, Director Zhou!" Luo Fei expressed his heartfelt gratitude.

"This is what we should do," Zhou Mingyu said solemnly. "All aspects of this treatment will be conducted in secrecy. We have already communicated with the hospital through high-level officials in the health system, and they will fully cooperate."

"During the treatment, we may implement isolation and security measures in your cousin's hospital room. We hope you and your family can understand and cooperate."

"I understand, I will definitely cooperate," Luo Fei replied in a deep voice.

He knew that this was not just a treatment, but also a crucial verification of the formula, which was of extraordinary significance.

"Okay. Academician Sun's assistant will contact you directly shortly with the specific arrival time and coordination details. Please keep your phone accessible."

"clear."

The call has ended.

He turned and went back to the ward.

Luo Yumei was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding her daughter's hand.

"Auntie," Luo Fei walked to her side and lowered his voice.

"Linlin can be saved. This afternoon, experts from Kyoto and a new, highly effective drug will be delivered. It's specifically for Linlin's condition."

Luo Yumei's eyes widened instantly, and she gasped for breath for a moment. Then, a surge of immense joy filled her face, and her lips trembled as she exclaimed, "Really? Experts from Kyoto? And a miracle cure?"

"Absolutely true." Luo Fei nodded vigorously. "So, from now on, we must fully cooperate with the experts' arrangements. Linlin will definitely get better."

Luo Yumei's tears welled up, this time purely from joy and excitement. She quickly covered her mouth with her hand, afraid of waking her daughter.

The pent-up despair and fear found an outlet at this moment.

Luo Fei patted her back gently without saying anything.

At that moment, Dr. Li walked in with a nurse.

Seeing Luo Yumei crying, the doctor paused for a moment, then looked at Luo Fei.

"Dr. Li, you've arrived." Luo Fei stood up.

"Mr. Luo, a private room has been arranged. It's at the very back of this floor, room 309," Dr. Li said. "If it's convenient, you can move there now."

His attitude was noticeably more polite than yesterday. Clearly, the hospital administration had already given instructions.

"Okay, thank you, Dr. Li. We'll move it now." Luo Fei nodded.

The process is simple.

With the help of nurses and caregivers, Zhao Lin was carefully wheeled to a new ward.

Ward 309 was indeed much more spacious and bright, with a companion bed and a small sofa, and the view from the window was also more open.

After Zhao Lin was settled in, the monitoring equipment was reconnected.

Seeing her daughter sleeping peacefully in a better environment, Luo Yumei felt much more relaxed.

Time passed slowly.

Luo Fei spent most of his time in the ward with his aunt, occasionally speaking a few words to Zhao Lin in a gentle tone to encourage her.

Luo Yumei was restless, glancing at the doorway every now and then, and then at the clock on the wall.

Around 2:40 PM.

Luo Fei's phone rang again; it was an unfamiliar Kyoto number.

He answered immediately.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Luo Fei?" a deep, steady male voice asked.

"I am."

"Hello Mr. Luo, I am Wu, the assistant to Academician Sun Jimin. Our convoy has entered Chongnan City and is expected to arrive at the People's Hospital inpatient building in ten minutes. Academician Sun wishes to go directly to the ward."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you in room 309 of the hematology department. Do you need me to come downstairs to meet you?"

"No need, we have someone to guide us."

"clear."

After hanging up the phone, Luo Fei nodded to Luo Yumei.

Luo Yumei immediately stood up nervously, straightened her slightly wrinkled clothes, and touched her daughter's forehead.

Not long after, a soft footstep sound came from the corridor.

There was a knock on the ward door.

Luo Fei stepped forward and opened the door.

There were six or seven people standing outside the door.

The leader was an elderly man with gray hair, wearing glasses and a white coat. Although he was not young, he stood upright and had the air of a scholar of profound wisdom and integrity. It was Academician Sun Jimin.

Beside him was a male doctor, also wearing a white coat and carrying a medical kit, who was Assistant Wu, and two female nurses.

Behind them followed two young men in black suits with stern expressions. They had faint bulges at their waists, clearly indicating they were armed. The two men flanked Academician Sun and the medical kit, subtly protecting them.

"Academician Sun, hello, I am Luo Fei." Luo Fei stepped aside, speaking respectfully.

Academician Sun Jimin's gaze lingered on Luo Fei's face for a moment, then he nodded slightly and, without further pleasantries, walked straight into the ward. His eyes immediately fell on Zhao Lin on the hospital bed.

Assistant Wu and two nurses quickly followed up.

The two men in black stopped at the door of the ward, like two gatekeepers, their eyes scanning the corridor. One of them whispered to Luo Fei and Luo Yumei, who had followed him out, "Mr. Luo, Ms. Luo, please wait outside for now. During treatment, no one is allowed to enter without permission."

Their voices were not loud, but they carried an undeniable authority.

Luo Fei nodded and pulled the somewhat bewildered Luo Yumei outside the door.

The ward door was gently closed.

Luo Fei and Luo Yumei stood at the door, and could see the busy figures inside through the glass window in the door.

Academician Sun was personally checking Zhao Lin's condition, reviewing monitoring data, and asking Assistant Wu something in a low voice.

A nurse quickly took several pieces of equipment from the medical kit and began connecting them.

Another caregiver was preparing disinfection supplies and other auxiliary items.

Assistant Wu opened the sturdy-looking medicine box and carefully took out a small, palm-sized metal thermostat.

He manipulated it a few times, and the lid of the constant temperature box slowly opened.

Even through the distance and the glass, Luo Fei could feel that Academician Sun's eyes turned fervent the moment the box was opened.

Assistant Wu, wearing sterile gloves, took out a glass bottle containing about ten milliliters of pale golden transparent liquid from the constant temperature box.

"Is that the potion made according to that formula?"

Luo Fei's heart also tightened.

Although he had absolute confidence in the formula, this was the first time it had been applied to real people, and the subjects were his own relatives.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.

Luo Yumei was so nervous that she clenched her hands tightly together, stared intently inside, and held her breath.

In the ward.

Academician Sun took the glass bottle and nodded to Assistant Wu.

Assistant Wu began the final preparations before administering the medication.

The two nurses worked together seamlessly, adjusting Zhao Lin's position to ensure the IV line remained clear.

Everything is ready.

Academician Sun slowly drew the pale gold liquid into a syringe.

Then, he walked to the bedside, bent down, and said in a gentle voice to Zhao Lin, whose eyes were wide open in confusion, "Child, don't be afraid. Grandpa will give you an injection, and you'll get better after that."

Zhao Lin looked weakly at the unfamiliar old man, then glanced through the glass window at her mother and cousin's encouraging eyes outside the door, and nodded gently.

Academician Sun inserted the needle into the pre-prepared intravenous access.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the pale golden liquid was slowly injected into Zhao Lin's veins.

The entire process was so quiet that only the regular beeping of the instruments could be heard.

The medication injection is complete.

Academician Sun did not leave immediately, but kept a close eye on the data on the monitoring instruments. Assistant Wu and the nursing staff also performed their duties, closely observing every subtle reaction of Zhao Lin.

Time passed second by second.

For Luo Fei and Luo Yumei, who were outside the door, those few minutes felt like an eternity.

Not long after.

Academician Sun's brows relaxed slightly, and he turned to his assistant Wu and whispered something to him.

Assistant Wu quickly took notes.

After a while, Zhao Lin's slightly furrowed brows relaxed a bit, and her breathing became more steady.

She fell asleep.

It wasn't a coma, but rather a peaceful sleep.

Academician Sun finally straightened up and let out a long sigh of relief.

He took off his glasses, rubbed his temples, and showed a hint of fatigue on his face, but his eyes shone with excitement.

He asked his assistant to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Luo Fei and his aunt rushed inside.

"Academician Sun, how is it?" Luo Fei's voice was tense.

Sun Jimin looked at Luo Fei, then at Luo Yumei, whose face was full of anxiety, and slowly spoke, his voice excited:

"Initial observations indicate that the medication's effects are very stable. The patient's vital signs are showing an improving trend, and no acute adverse reactions have occurred!"

He looked at Zhao Lin, who was sleeping peacefully on the hospital bed, his eyes filled with eagerness: "According to the theoretical plan, we should be able to..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but his excitement was palpable.

Luo Yumei's tears welled up again, but this time, they were tears of joy.

Luo Fei's anxiety finally subsided.
