"Yes, there are some. Please take a seat first, Mr. Chongxiao."

Remian's expression was very calm. He was neither excited about the slight possibility of being cured nor helpless because of Fiammetta's stubbornness.

On the contrary, she never mentioned the treatment, but kept asking about Remuel's recent situation.

It is worth mentioning that the two sisters are not biological children. Remian is adopted by her parents, but they get along very well with each other, just like a normal family.

Besides the two of them, the only person in the ward at this time was Fiammetta... Mostima wanted to come over, but she was taken to the Pope's Hall by Teresa more than half an hour ago to make a self-report, and she couldn't get out at all.

"So, that child is still not reassuring."

"Not really, I'm more worried about the enemy she's going to deal with."

Chongxiao turned his head to check the time, then continued, "It's time to get down to business, Miss Lemiaoan, your injury..."

"Oh, it's actually nothing serious. As long as I continue with my rehabilitation treatment, I still have hope of recovery."

In the face of Fiammetta's surprised eyes, Remion politely declined Chongxiao's help.

She took a step forward and was about to say something, but was stopped by the other party's nonchalant look.

That look seemed to say: This is my decision!

However, neither of them knew that Chongxiao was actually not sure either.

Remian's injury was not as simple as being hit in the vitals by a bullet... Since the operation was too difficult and the effect could not be guaranteed, she could only choose a slow rehabilitation therapy as recommended by the doctor.

This would indeed ensure safety, but the problem is that as Remian's body heals itself, the fragments that were not removed from the broken vertebrae may have been "squeezed" into a position that is more difficult to remove, which means that the difficulty and risk of the operation will increase until it is almost impossible to complete.

While rehabilitation therapy avoids risks, it will also lead to sequelae to a great extent. By then, even if Lemiaoan can stand up again, he will not be able to regain full mobility.

The vitality granted by Taixu Susheng cannot be used to "clean up" the debris, so even if it is used, it can only be regarded as accelerating the recovery therapy.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Chongxiao quickly tried to smooth things over.

But there are some problems with the method he chose...

"Don't be angry, both of you. Shouldn't the real culprit be the one called Andorn?"

After hearing this, Remian was immediately shocked, and then stared at Fiammetta, who seemed to feel guilty, but still said with his neck stiff: "Zhongxiao is right! One day, I will find that guy and make him kneel down in front of you to apologize to you!"

"I think... I've repeated this countless times, Fia."

Lemiaoan said slightly more seriously: "I don't want you to do this, and I don't need his apology."

"But he must pay! This is his sin!"

"Fia..."

"You're always like this, Lemion, both you and Mastema!"

The excited Fiammetta seemed unable to control her emotions. She clenched her fists on her knees and looked at Lemion with eyes full of confusion and disappointment.

I was puzzled as to why my friend did this, and I was disappointed that he would actually do this...

Chongxiao, who was also very surprised, stood up and patted Fiammetta on the shoulder.

By the way, he also used a bit of spiritual energy to calm her excited emotions.

"Wait, Fia, what are you talking about?"

"…I wasn't there when Lemiaoan got into trouble."

Fiammetta said bitterly: "So I... don't know what Andorn did, why he attacked you, and why Xiao Mo... But I don't understand, what is there to hide?"

Faced with words that were almost an interrogation, Lemiaoan just looked at her with a sad face.

"Believe me, Fia... You really don't have to go to this extent. You don't need to waste your time on this..."

"stop!"

Chongxiao suddenly interrupted her, and for some reason, his tone became a little serious.

"Tell me, Lemiaoan, what Fia should and shouldn't do, is this something you can decide?"

This one sentence left both of them stunned.

……

Evangelista XI's life was actually much easier than many people imagined.

He had the habit of getting up early, but had no intention of getting into work mode early. Instead, he went to the back garden of the Pope's Palace and strolled around until he was "invited" back to the first hall by Cardinal Valerie. Only then did he start to deal with the Pope's affairs amid sighs.

A few hours passed silently, and when Evangelista XI finally finished his work and was about to enjoy some desserts he had hidden away, he found a man in a white robe and a hooded head hurriedly pushed open the door and walked in.

This startled His Holiness the Pope and his expression instantly became serious.

"Why are you here?"

"Please forgive me for being absent from duty, Your Majesty, but...but something serious just happened!"

This time, Evangelista XI was not only serious, but his expression even changed drastically!

"Are you... sure!?"

"Most certainly, your majesty!"

The man in white robe lowered his head as much as possible. "Yesterday afternoon, this morning, and just now... our 'Law' made slight noises three times in a row!"

……

(Note: According to the original setting, Remian should still be in a coma at this time, so I made some changes.)
