After giving Shizuku Hazuki her next tasks, Fang Zheng drove Asuna ho. Although the AR device wasn’t fully tuned yet, the ’Pokémon’ series didn’t really require much storyline, and the production team’s main task was to set various types of Monsters, as well as their Attribute Levels and appearance.
The Pokémon series apparently had over 800 Little Fairies in its past life, yet Fang Zheng didn’t draw all these Little Fairies, as he wanted to see the aesthetic of this world. So, Fang Zheng only set so attribute races and three starting Little Fairies, including their battle thods and how to capture them, writing a detailed record. The rest... he left for Shizuku Hazuki to find soone to do.
"Well then, contact later."
After sending Asuna to her doorstep, Fang Zheng waved goodbye to her and was about to leave, while Asuna hesitated for a mont before speaking softly.
"Um... Mr. Fang Zheng? Would you like to co into our ho for a visit? Mother would certainly love to et you..."
"Next ti, I have so things to handle."
Hearing Asuna’s invitation, Fang Zheng shook his head and chose to refuse. Although disappointed by Fang Zheng’s response, Asuna didn’t delve too deeply into it.
"Alright then, I wish you a safe journey, Mr. Fang Zheng."
"See you later."
After saying goodbye to Asuna, Fang Zheng once again pressed on the gas pedal and drove away from the Yuki Family. However, he didn’t imdiately head to the target location; instead, Fang Zheng first went to a flower shop to buy a bundle of Hana before driving to a hospital located in deep mountains of Tsuzuki Ward in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture.
In fact, the person originally residing here was Fang Zheng’s intended first visit, but fate intervened, and before eting her, he had already t with Yuna and Asuna.
Nonetheless, now things were finally back on track.
Because the journey was sowhat long, and by the ti Fang Zheng arrived at the hospital, it was already evening, technically past visiting hours. However, after explaining his purpose to the nurse at the front desk, Fang Zheng was soon allowed in. Following this, guided by the nurse, Fang Zheng took the elevator to a dical ward on the fourth floor, where he waited at the reception for a mont until a short-statured doctor in a white coat walked in.
"Is it you who made the visitation application?"
"That’s right."
Facing the doctor’s inquiry, Fang Zheng nodded and stood up.
"Are you Yuki’s attending physician?"
"Yuki... Ah, you an Mr. Monki."
Hearing Fang Zheng’s inquiry, the doctor seed surprised but quickly nodded.
"Yes, I am her attending physician, Dr. Kurahashi. May I ask who you are--?"
"Fang Zheng."
Upon hearing Fang Zheng’s reply, Dr. Kurahashi’s expression slightly changed, then he curiously looked Fang Zheng up and down.
"So you are Fang Zheng..."
"Seems you know about ?"
"Of course, after coming out of that ga, Mr. Monki told a lot about you. Ah, Mr. Monki is Yuki; her real na is Yuuki Konno... I suppose you already know this. So, is your purpose here to visit her?"
While speaking, Dr. Kurahashi curiously glanced at the bouquet in Fang Zheng’s hand.
"You should be aware that this ti is not visiting hours."
"Which is precisely why I ca."
Fang Zheng was not taken aback by this.
"Actually, I do not want her to know I ca; I also hope you will keep this confidential, Doctor."
"There will certainly be no problem with that."
At this point, Dr. Kurahashi paused in silence, then sighed softly.
"Co with ."
After saying this, Dr. Kurahashi turned around and led Fang Zheng to a ward located at the corridor’s end, where he opened the door and brought Fang Zheng inside.
This is an observation room; in front is a piece of Pitch Black glass. Dr. Kurahashi operated on the computer for a mont, and soon the Pitch Black glass gradually faded, revealing the scenario inside.
"The opposite side is the sterile room where no one is allowed to enter; therefore, you can only observe from here."
While Dr. Kurahashi’s voice echoed in Fang Zheng’s ear, he was indifferent, quietly watching the small figure on the blue hospital bed on the other side of the glass in the sterile room.
Yuki.
The little fellow who was always full of Spirit and energy in the Ga World was now lying on the hospital bed, eyes shut. Her body appeared extraordinarily thin, reminding Fang Zheng of those starved, skeletal children from Africa. Her previously cute face also seed extrely pale due to malnutrition, making her resemble a skeleton wrapped in skin.
Various tubes were attached to her throat and arms, and currently, these connections were the only things keeping Yuki alive.
"How is Yuki’s condition?"
"Not good."
Dr. Kurahashi had no intention of hiding the truth.
"Her condition continues to worsen, and the problem now extends beyond AIDS; her brain’s primary lymphoma edema is also worsening. Frankly, we’re at wit’s end."
"How much ti is left?"
"It’s hard to say. Even if we consider it optimistically, there’s probably no more than half a month left. If luck is bad, it might be just another week."
"One week... That’s enough."
After thinking over Dr. Kurahashi’s response, Fang Zheng nodded. Then he turned his head to look at Dr. Kurahashi beside him.
"Dr. Kurahashi, I have a request I hope you can help with..."
"......"
Upon hearing Fang Zheng’s request, Dr. Kurahashi frowned.
"But this does not adhere to the standards, and with her condition..."
"I know her condition, but I think she would also hope to fulfill her own wish."
Fang Zheng interrupted Dr. Kurahashi, once again gazing at Yuki lying on the hospital bed.
"I can cover all costs for Yuki’s forthcoming treatnt. What I ask is rely for a slight assistance from you... Moreover, for Yuki herself, this is not a bad thing, is it?"
"......Please let consider it so more."
Upon hearing this, Dr. Kurahashi seed visibly tempted, yet ultimately did not agree imdiately. To this, Fang Zheng was not surprised; evidently, Dr. Kurahashi was a reliable and conscientious doctor.
However, this matter needs to be done.
Because it’s a promise between Fang Zheng and Yuki.
