The waveforms on the screens of the EEG and ECG monitors were very stable. There were no changes compared to the past.
This was a single ICU room at Phecda's headquarters. Even though it was equipped with various equipment, it was still quite spacious. The patient lying in the middle bed was Gu Jun. His head was covered with short, black hair. His sleeping face was quiet, and his body was thin.
There were three nurses in the team who took turns to accompany him. One of them, Nurse Liu, was reading a magazine on the chair beside the bed.
Nurse Liu was in her thirties. She had been a member of Phecda for many years. She had been in the Special Mobile Force before, so she had a strong sense of responsibility and nursing skills.
Normally, there was a lot of free time for a comatose patient, but Nurse Liu would read a book or a magazine when she was free. Unlike normal hospitals, mobile phones were not allowed into the ICU because the signal would interfere with the equipment and the radiation might affect the patient's brain recovery.
The ICU here did not allow family members or other people to accompany the patient. It was all done by the medical staff. However, the visiting hours were from 16: 00 to 16: 30 every day.
With Gu Jun's popularity, there would be an endless stream of visitors, but due to this, due to medical considerations and the uniqueness of his identity, there were not many visitors.
Furthermore, the visiting rights were divided into two levels. Level one visitors could only look through the window while level two visitors could walk into the room.
Those who had level two visitors could be counted on one hand. They were either old superiors like Tong Ye or Yao Sinian, or they were his best friends.
People like Tong Ye had too many things to do and they had to travel all day. Even though they were concerned about Gu Jun's condition, they did not come often.
Even so, there was no lack of visitors. This was because Wu Shiyu came every day to visit him and try to awaken him through mental connection.
They had done this kind of unconventional treatment many times over the past few months. In terms of mental connection, other than Wu Shiyu, the team had arranged for Gu Jun's other teachers and friends to try it alone or in groups. Uncle Dan, Cai Zixuan, Deng Ximei … Wang Ruoxiang had tried it too, but there was no effect.
Cai Zixuan often came to visit. Usually, he would bring some Laohuo soup that he cooked for Nurse Liu and the others to drink. Gu Jun could only smell the fragrance of the soup. During this period of time, the team had installed a nasal feeding tube for Gu Jun, fed him liquid food, and injected him with nutritional fluid. The staff from the Nutrition Department were responsible for this step.
"Doctor Gu, look here, you're on the news again."
The magazine that Nurse Liu was reading was a new weekly magazine, Phecda Secrets. This issue had another report on Gu Jun, he was referred to as the Phecda Hero.
That was not wrong at all. Even though Gu Jun was only 22, based on her limited knowledge, the contribution he had made after joining Phecda was worthy of this title.
During the first month of his coma, many leaders came to visit him. That was how Nurse Liu got to see many people that she would not normally get to see.
It was indeed an honor to be able to join this team.
Nurse Liu turned to look at the young man on the bed and couldn't help but sigh. What a pity. The heavens were really jealous of geniuses.
The visiting time was almost up, the visitors should be here. Today was the last day of 2021, there was no reason for them not to come.
As expected, not long after, Wu Shiyu arrived with a few other visitors. Uncle Dan, Lou Xiaoning, Cai Zixuan, Deng Ximei, Peacock and the rest were there. Since not all of them had level 2 visitation rights, they stood outside the door.
"Dirty-minded Jun, everyone is here to see you." Wu Shiyu pushed open the door and walked in. "Nurse Liu, how is he today?"
"No change." Nurse Liu repeated. Every time she said it, Wu Shiyu would respond with a slight sigh of disappointment.
At the same time, Uncle Dan introduced a new visitor to the group of nurses. Xie Yiman, a famous artist. She was previously treated by Gu Jun for the Mutated Scale Disease. She had recovered. Her application to join Phecda had been approved and she had just officially become a member of the PR department.
Phecda granted her a second level visitation right to see if there was any special connection between her and Gu Jun that could be triggered.
"Hello, everyone." Xie Yiman greeted everyone and walked into the room. She smiled at Nurse Liu. "Hello, Nurse Liu."
She wanted to smile out of politeness and that was the image in her mind but in reality, her face was expressionless.
Nurse Liu and the others knew about Xie Yiman's condition. She had a full face skin graft and recovered well. Her facial contours and facial features were still very beautiful. The difference in skin color and the less obvious scars around the skin graft could be covered up with makeup. However, her facial muscles could not move, and they were cold and stiff.
"Doctor Gu." Xie Yiman walked to the bed and saw the withered Gu Jun.
Even though she was mentally prepared, when the image of the tall and handsome Doctor Gu collided with her, tears welled up in her eyes.
"I'm Xie Yiman, I'm here to see you … Seeing you like this, I feel terrible but I'm also very impressed by you. I heard you sacrificed yourself for the mission. I wish to tell you about my condition so that you won't worry about me. My recovery from nerve damage and skin grafting is very good. Although I can't feel or move my face, my eyes, breathing, and eating are all fine … "
Outside the room, Uncle Dan nodded. That was indeed the case.
After all, Xie Yiman was young, she was only eighteen. The surgery was of high quality, so she recovered well.
Not all patients with Mutated Scale Disease would have this level of recovery. Some even had trouble blinking and swallowing.
Those patients who had not undergone the disfigurement surgery but had their itchiness eliminated because of the end of the ritual were much luckier and did not need to undergo the disfigurement surgery. However, once the Mutated Scale Disease started, even if the itch was gone, the disfigured skin would not recover naturally. Therefore, all the patients had to undergo skin grafting and skin grafting.
"I've joined Phecda, the public relations department." Xie Yiman wiped away the tears in her eyes. "The world is preparing to give the public an explanation for this incident. When the time comes, I will appear on camera. That will be my first mission … Doctor Gu, this incident has changed me. Not just my face, I have changed a lot. I have a new goal. I plan to join the Spell Department once I'm qualified! I have some talent, my spirituality is not bad … "
While Xie Yiman explained, Wu Shiyu held Gu Jun's hand and tried to sense it but it was still like a pool of stagnant water. There was not even the sensation of a scalpel.
She had Xie Yiman give it a try herself but Xie Yiman did not succeed either.
Even though they did not have high expectations from the beginning, they were still disappointed by this result. This would not work, that would not work either. What would they do to wake up Gu Jun? Even if there was a tiny reaction? Or perhaps he really was already …
The visitation time given to the visitors was only fifteen minutes. The time limit was soon up and they could only leave in disappointment. However, Wu Shiyu wished to stay a little longer.
Due to her unique identity, her visitation time would last for half an hour.
