Octopus chuckled. Luo Nan knew that it was almost done. "Our luck is pretty good. Dr. Clay is quite interested in your case. He has already decided to take it. I've already paid in advance …."
"Bro Octopus?"
"Hey, you can't let me take advantage of you right? That nerve drug of yours must be shelved. It targets neurons. Most of them are sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves. If damage has already appeared, it will be hard to predict what will happen if we continue to stimulate them. If we save this expense, wouldn't I be taking your grandfather's molecular formula for free? "
"That's not how it works …."
"That's how it works! Oh right, there's a small problem in this matter. Dr. Clay is currently working on a project. He can't get away for a while, so he sent his students over to do the preliminary data collection and testing work. It will be done in about a week. As for Dr. Clay, it will be the end of the month. "
"The end of the month?" Luo Nan was startled. His scalp went numb in the blink of an eye. Didn't this mean that he would have to soak in this large bathtub of the health pod for another month?
He hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "Wouldn't this take too long?"
Octopus laughed. "What's the big deal in a month? It's not even a single course of treatment. You won't have to stay in the hospital forever. I asked Mr. Bai. As long as you can suppress your cough and lethargy, you can leave the hospital at any time. Then you can report to the hospital every other night for specialized treatment. The Society will reimburse you. After all, it's a work injury. "
Luo Nan knew that Octopus and Mr. Bai had talked.
The light blue liquid of the health pod had completely covered Luo Nan's head by now. Even though he was wearing filters, earplugs, and other protective equipment, the strange, indescribably sticky feeling became more and more distinct.
Luo Nan was not averse to this feeling due to his childhood experiences. He could faintly sense the composition of the nutrient fluid seeping into his body bit by bit with the precision of his senses. It affected the secretion of his body's chemical composition to a certain extent.
Luo Nan could not help but carefully discern the minute changes within due to his years of habit. In the past, he could only sense it roughly. Now he was countless times more precise. Correspondingly, the operating efficiency of energy and information had unknowingly increased.
"Not good!"
Luo Nan suddenly came to his senses, and he hastily stopped the thought of clairvoyance. Even so, there were still many parts of his body that were faintly aching.

The pain made him break out in a cold sweat.
Was she trying to cure him or harm him?
If … if he had to experience this for the next month, then Luo Nan really would have the heart to die.
His restlessness delayed him for a while, and he was also distracted. Octopus could only call out again, "Hey, brother, what's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable?"
"It's nothing."
Luo Nan couldn't say that he was courting death, but in the end, he couldn't help but grumble: "This place feels really vexing."
He really suspected that the subtle feeling he had toward the health pod over the years would be completely subverted by the treatment period of a month or even longer.
"Ha, you just need to get used to it. Actually, I don't know how much I envy you."
"Brother Octopus …"
"Really, I'm not lying to you."
Octopus couldn't empathize with Luo Nan at this time. His attention was focused elsewhere. "You don't know who the student that Dr. Clay sent over is … … Bai Xinyan. She's the flower of fantasy in the pharmaceutical world. She's absolutely a first-rate beauty. She's not any worse than your secretary."
Luo Nan decided not to say anything.
But Octopus was inexplicably excited. "Tsk tsk. She was really hot back in the day. If it wasn't for Mr. Bai keeping a close eye on her back in Xia City, I would have definitely chased after her. Think about it. You get to spend a month with such a beauty. Yeah, even if you spend three weeks with her, it's still a golden opportunity!
Luo Nan was stupefied. "Mr. Bai?"
"Yeah. She's Mr. Bai's daughter. She's also a mentally enhanced ability user, but she's even more talented in pharmaceutical studies. She's Dr. Clay's favorite disciple. She even surpasses him in some areas.
"Oh right. You need to remember that Mr. Bai and his daughter don't have a good relationship. Bai Xinyan left for America and hasn't returned for many years. It seems that this is one of the reasons. Don't use your relationship to worm your way into getting close to her. Otherwise, don't blame me for not reminding you if a problem arises! "
"...... Okay." Luo Nan was really defeated by Octopus.
"Then that's it? Oh right, the health pod is vexing. Do you want to chat? Tonight is free. "
"......"
Several bouts of cold rain drifted past. The chill gradually grew heavier. The sky of Xia City darkened earlier and earlier. Today was another day with dense clouds and no rain. The cool and refreshing autumn weather had been blown to who knows where.

Xia City Airport. Inside the VIP lounge. Yan Yongbo sat quietly on the sofa. His posture was upright and his expression was dull. He looked completely like a successful businessman. His aura was a bit stronger than that of Quantum Corporation's Xia City Area CEO, Hu Yuli.
However, Hu Yuli didn't mind. He minded his own business, drinking tea and resting. Occasionally, he would cast a glance at the enormous projection area in the lounge.
Right now, the projection area was broadcasting a special program produced by the Star Associated Society. The host spoke extremely fast as he asked the expert:
"Why did Deep Blue Walkers appear in Xia City? It seems that the military has never sent this force to any metropolitan area, let alone to fight within. This should be the first time in history! "
Expert One's expression was wooden as he spoke: "There have been. From what I remember, there was one in 90 years, but it wasn't to carry out a military mission. There should be others, but they have always kept a low profile. Most of the time, the public has overlooked them."
The host immediately passed this fellow who didn't know how to cooperate. He consulted Expert Two: "Most of us have the impression that Deep Blue Walkers always appear in the wilderness or on the sea. They always fight with mutants. This gives us an innate impression that wherever Deep Blue Walkers appear, it is always extremely dangerous … …"
Expert Two's face was filled with a strange smile that said "I knew you were going to make big news". He spoke rather fluently: "Not only do we have to pay attention to the appearance of Deep Blue Walkers, we also have to pay attention to the reaction speed of the government and the military. The number of Deep Blue Walkers is limited. There are currently only four divisions in the entire world, and they aren't filled up all year round. Normally, they operate in teams.
"Currently, combining all the information, the number of Deep Blue Walkers that appeared in the early morning hours of the 1st is already very large. The possibility of a temporary transfer is very small. This means that they have always been in the vicinity. They might even be on standby in Xia City. As for why, we can only see the subsequent developments and the information excavated by all parties … … "
Expert Two didn't present any actual evidence, but he gave people unlimited room for imagination.
Only then was the host satisfied: "Now, we will cut to a short video to further understand the Deep Blue Walkers."
At this moment, a sweet-sounding bell rang out in the lounge, indicating that the passenger spaceship they were waiting for had already entered the airport. Hu Yuli and the other pick-up personnel all stood up. Only Yan Yongbo stared at the projection screen without moving for a long time.
