"Chen, why are you here?" Faur asked.
"I'm here to visit the vegetative patient," Chen Zhao said.
"Then I'll take you there."
Wate Leeders was still lying on the bed. His cheeks were already showing the shape of his facial bones. After all, he could only inject nutrients every day and didn't exercise. His bodily functions were almost gone.
Even if he woke up in the future, he would need a very long time to recover.
His daughter, Suma Leeders, wasn't here today. Chen Zhao had heard that Suma worked over 14 hours a day to pay for her father's hospitalization and treatment.
"This human's soul is damaged," Samuel said. "If his soul can't be healed, he'll sleep forever."
Chen Zhao's heart jumped. "Damaged soul?"
"Yes. There are traces of magic in the damaged part of his soul. It seems to be caused by magic."
Magic? Did Blackie do it?
If it was because Blackie practiced magic on Wate Leeders' body, it would explain why Blackie asked Chen Zhao to heal Wate Leeders.
"You know Blackie, right?"
"The Soulbringer at home?"
"Yes. What happens if the Soulbringer hurts a human?"
"If the Soul-Gatherer kills a living being, then his lifespan will be reduced by how much the living being originally had. The Soul-Gatherer has a lifespan of about five hundred years at most, so under normal circumstances, the Soul-Gatherer will never actively harm a living being."
Chen Zhao thought for a moment and asked, "What if Blackie is the one who did it? What kind of punishment will Blackie receive? "
"There won't be any punishment. At least, not before he dies."
"Is there a way to heal damaged souls?" Chen Zhao asked.
"You just have to repair his soul."
"How?"
"Use soul fragments and then Soul Heal to fill it up. But the lost memories can't be recovered."
"Teach me Soul Heal."
"I don't know."
"What? You're a demon king. Why don't you know? "
"Why would I know such a low-level spell? Also, do you think I need to heal someone? I only know how to kill enemies. "
"What do I need you for?"
"I don't know, but my subordinates do," Samuel said.
"Alright, at least you're useful." Chen Zhao pouted. "Summon me to Hell. I want to learn this Soul Healing spell."
"I want ten drumsticks and ten pots of catnip."
"Deal. When will you summon me?"
"Even my main body in Hell doesn't have your token, so I can't summon you."
"Do you have anything on me that can be used as a keepsake?"
"If you have anything you use often, just let me bring it to Hell."
"I'll find one when I get home," Chen Zhao said.
After leaving the ward, Faur was waiting for him at the door.
"What do you think? Are you done? "
"Yes."
"Is there a way?"
"This patient has nothing to do with you. Why do you care so much?"
"Suma Leeders is suffering. If you can awaken her father, it will be a relief for her."
"I can't promise anything."
"With Suma Leeders' financial situation, she shouldn't be able to afford you, right? And when you met her last time, she didn't seem to recognize you. Why did you attack her? "
"I have my reasons."
"Whatever, I won't ask. You won't tell me the truth anyway."
Chen Zhao and Faur walked to the vending machine. Chen Zhao stuffed a few coins into it. "Want a drink?"
Faur asked for a cup of coffee and the two sat on the aisle.
"Your dad's birthday is on the 18th, right?"
"Huh? You know?"
"Winnip called me yesterday. We plan to go to Sacramento for a few days. Do you want to come?"
"I need to check the time. I don't have as much free time as you."
Just then, they heard a sudden voice.
"Liar."
Chen Zhao and Faur were both stunned. They looked up and saw a red-haired girl standing before the vending machine.
"She's talking about you?" Faur asked, surprised.
Chen Zhao looked at the red-haired girl. She did look familiar, but he couldn't remember where he'd seen her before.
"You are …"
"Did you forget? I used to be Mr. Rasfa's personal health consultant. Because of you, I was fired."
Chen Zhao slapped his head. "You're Reidra?"
"Hmph." Reidra snorted. She took the drink and left.
Faur looked at Chen Zhao. "She seems to hate you a lot."
"Maybe she thinks I stole her client." Chen Zhao shrugged helplessly.
"Then why did she call you a liar?"
"How would I know? I've only met her once." Even Chen Zhao was confused.
"Don't tell me there's something going on between you two? She looks really pretty. "
"You're too imaginative."
Smiling, Chen Zhao shook his head. "I should go."
Just then, a cart covered in a white cloth passed by Chen Zhao.
Chen Zhao was already used to this.
This was a hospital. It was normal for people to die.
"Human … Master, what's that?"
"When people die, they'll cover them with white cloth."
"But that person isn't dead, right?" Samuel asked.
"Not dead?" Chen Zhao was stunned. "Are you sure?"
"Yes, I can hear that person's weak breathing and a complete soul."
Chen Zhao stopped and chased after the cart.
Sitting on the walkway, Faur saw Chen Zhao run over. "What's wrong?"
"I want to see this person," Chen Zhao said, stopping the cart.
Just then, Tim Waltz and Reidra walked over.
"What are you doing?" Tim Waltz yelled angrily. His eyes were red and there were tear stains on his face.
"Mr. Tim, that's a liar," Reidra said.
Tim Waltz walked over to Chen Zhao. "What do you want to do to my son's body?"
"Sir, I'm sorry," Chen Zhao said, finding an excuse. "I just saw him move."
"Hoffman is already dead. The doctor confirmed it. Do you want to make a fuss over a dead person?" Reidra asked. "But it's normal. As a liar, you wouldn't mind using a dead person if you can get money."
Faur looked at Chen Zhao. "Chen, let's not be nosy."
"Sir, are you sure you don't want to check again?" Chen Zhao asked.
Tim Waltz hesitated. He turned to Reidra and asked, "You know him?"
"He's a shameless liar."
"Ms. Reidra, you keep saying that I'm a liar. May I ask who I've tricked?"
"You're an illegal doctor!" Reidra said.
