"What's going on, Lao Wei? Don't be silent. Is it serious?"

When he saw Lao Wei like this, he panicked.

Logically speaking, the result given by the system at that time was not so pessimistic. It just reminded me to perform mechanical ascension.

Could it be that if a serious doctor were to examine it, other problems might be discovered?

Like some doctor named Sean?

It was just a minor illness, but it turned into cancer or something like that for him?

When he thought of this, he became uneasy and even shuddered.

I'm angry at you, mom. Come on, Old Wei, you are not that kind of cyborg doctor, you are a living legend in Night City.

Don't learn from that damn bastard Dr. Sean. Although his medical skills are equally excellent, he can also take lives!!!

"It's hard to say whether it's serious or not. Before that, you have to answer a few questions for me."

Lao Wei slowly moved the swivel chair in front of him.

"Have you been feeling very tired these past few days, and there is no relief after waking up?"

"Fuck, Lao Wei, you are worthy of being me. How did you know that?"

He was simply shocked.

He had never mentioned this symptom to anyone, but Lao Wei could come to this conclusion just by looking at the data...

He is truly the best cyborg doctor in Night City.

But Lao Wei fell into deep thought again, "So, how many times have you used S'An Westin in the past few days?"

"Uh....is it okay not to answer?"

When he said this, his eyes became a little erratic, but Lao Wei said without question: "No, you must answer truthfully."

"Well...about thirty times in total...I think."

If you think about it carefully, it should be this many times, right?

After all, I used it almost ten times today alone, and all of them were to avoid being hunted down by that cyber madman.

Add to that the fact that he had previously participated in gang fights and reaped the benefits, so it should be about the same.

But his answer caused a rare fluctuation on Lao Wei's face, and his skin trembled involuntarily, as if he had seen some medical miracle.

"So what about the inhibitor I gave you? Are you taking it properly every day?"

"Uh...I forgot recently..."

“How many times did you take it?”

"About ten times or less?"

David scratched the back of his head and spoke tentatively.

It felt like I was back in my school days, facing my teacher when I didn't finish my homework.

"How many times exactly?!"

"About three or four times?"

Lao Wei didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly.

I have to say, Lao Wei is worthy of being Lao Wei. The oppressive feeling of his gaze is even stronger than that of the cyber psychopath on the Skyrail.

It made his hair stand on end.

"Okay, okay, just once, before you come..."

As for inhibitors, he saw V only took them once from beginning to end, whether before or after the accident.

So I don’t care that much.

"hiss--"

Lao Wei immediately took a breath of cold air, then turned his swivel chair back to the screen, looked at the data on it and sighed: "Sure enough..."

However, his answer shocked even Lucy, a layman standing in the corner.

I used Sianweistan dozens of times in a few days, and I didn't use inhibitors at all...

If it were an ordinary civilian model, it would be fine, but this is a military-grade implant, and the burden it puts on the body is multiplied.

Is this still human?

"No smoking here, thank you."

Lao Wei, who was looking at the screen, suddenly gave a polite reminder.

"..."

This made Lucy stop reaching for her pocket.

David's condition was completely beyond her understanding. She even suspected that she had seen it wrong. That was not the military-grade Swansea.

However, when she walked to the iron gate, she couldn't help but look at David sitting on the operating chair again.

The eyes are a little complicated.

No one knew what emotions were flowing in the depths of those purple eyes that radiated the gorgeousness of the spectrum just like her short hair.

But now I need to smoke a cigarette to calm down.

Then he took long steps towards the stairs to the basement.

Seeing Lucy disappear at the basement stairs, Lao Wei's voice came again: "Is that your girlfriend?"

"Not yet..." David blurted out subconsciously.

“So it’s possible in the future?”

Lao Wei suddenly became curious and teased, "But your girlfriend is not so worried about you... Just now, her attention was all on you."

"If only that were the case..." David's voice was filled with regret.

He could now clearly feel that there was still a thick barrier between him and Lucy...

Thinking of this, I couldn't help feeling upset.

It is said that a hero who saves a beautiful girl can always win her heart, but why does it not work for him?

Obviously, the relationship between the two people in the anime heats up so quickly...

Isn't the pose handsome enough?

Or is there something not going well?

Or is there any other reason?

All in all, he didn't want to dwell too much on this topic.

So he changed the subject:

"Okay, stop joking, Lao Wei. How's my health now? Is it serious?"

"Well, it's not a question of severity, kid."

Lao Wei shook his head helplessly, "It's a medical miracle that you're still alive today."

"You should be thankful that you have a strong body for not completely collapsing until now."

"If you didn't have such a strong body, your entire body would have been disabled before you turned into a cyber maniac."

"Is it... so serious?" He scratched his face awkwardly.

"What do you say?"

Lao Wei, who was operating the instrument, raised his head slightly and glanced at him, "How do you think those cyber maniacs on the street appeared?"

According to the definition of the trauma team's medical records, so-called cyberpsychosis is a general term for all anxiety-related mental and personality disorders caused by hardware implanted in the body and various behavioral modules including software.

Simply put, the implant is just a powerful catalyst that is responsible for catalyzing the painful experiences in everyone's heart.

What really collapsed was the person's spirit and body.

In Night City, everyone probably knows one or two acquaintances whose neighbor's cybernetic body is so cruel that one day he went out with a gun and opened fire on the crowd.

Or maybe this neighbor refused to find a reliable prosthesis doctor in order to save money, so he was haunted by nightmares every day, and after taking hormone blocking drugs, he began to hear auditory hallucinations and finally went crazy.

Some people say cyberpsychosis is a disease caused by social inequality.

Others say it's the price of an unhealthy obsession with technology.

Others think it is completely made up.

Until the day they saw their neighbors shooting indiscriminately at their doorstep and had to call the Terrorist Squad.

In a case like David's, where his body did not completely collapse and the excessive load did not cause damage to his nervous system, it is completely safe to say that it is a medical miracle.

"Oh, I understand, Old Wei. From now on, I will take inhibitors regularly..." David sighed slowly.

"Not only that, you can't continue to use S'An Westin in the next few days. If you continue to use it like this, I'm afraid you won't have this kind of luck again." Old Wei said as he rummaged around underneath as if he was looking for something.

"What about adding implants? Is that possible?"

Now that I'm here with Lao Wei, I might as well install a few more implants.

For example, Kirusi or something, he is quite greedy for that thing, which can make the surveillance camera unable to clearly see the face or something.

"Sure, if you want to die."

Lao Wei said the most terrible words in the kindest tone.

Then, he took out a pneumatic potion from below and placed it in his hand.

"alright, I got it."

He looked down at the bottle that looked similar to Qinglizhi and asked, "What is this?"

"This is a soft stimulant that I modified. It is stronger than the one you took before, and it doesn't have any bad side effects."

"Take it according to the dosage. Inhale it twice now, inhale it twice tomorrow morning, and then inhale it twice every hour. It will help your body recover faster."

"Oh."

He nodded as if he understood, and took two deep puffs according to the dosage given by Lao Wei.

The color in front of my eyes changed instantly, as if I had turned on night vision goggles. My entire field of vision turned green, and my body seemed to be filled with endless energy.

Suddenly he jumped off the operating chair.

I, Hu Hansan, am back again!!!

He really wanted to shout this, but there were people around him, so he gave up.

"Thank you, Lao Wei. How much is this?"

"No need for money, I hope you can patronize my business more often."

Seeing that he became full of energy again, Lao Wei showed a kind smile on his face.

It felt like being back in front of the computer screen and seeing Lao Wei smiling at V.

23. Judy and Lucy

At the back door of Misty's psychic house, Misty, who was dressed like a street girl, was chatting with Lucy, who was standing nearby smoking.

The general content is that each person tells the story of their encounter with David.

And Lucy had no intention of hiding anything, and slowly told Misty everything.

For some reason, she had an inexplicable liking for this woman named Misty.

"Hey David, how are you doing?"

At this moment, Misty suddenly waved in the direction of the basement entrance, causing Lucy to subconsciously look in that direction.

"Old Wei said there's nothing wrong, just take inhibitors regularly."

David, who came out of the basement, responded with a smile, but his eyes couldn't help but meet Lucy's.

Misty naturally noticed this, so she stood up and said softly, "Then you guys chat, I'm going back to close the store."

She left the space here to the two young people.
