The system finished speaking.

The constant buzzing of electricity in my ears gradually subsided.

Everything fell silent.

Consciousness gradually faded until he fell into a deep sleep.

Xu Qiaoqiao hadn't interacted with the system at all; she had only passively listened to its words. Now, Xu Qiaoqiao roughly understood what kind of state she was in.

Is he about to wake up?

She had only one thought in her mind, and she didn't know whether she was relieved or sad, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what kind of feeling she was.

For her, even so-called treatment was nothing.

But the things we experienced and the feelings we shared were all very genuine and real, so please don't forget them.

Xu Qiaoqiao shouted to herself in her heart, "Never forget! You must remember this!"

She carries many memories in the darkness, memories she cannot forget.

—JunJun, I've come to find you.

This was Xu Qiaoqiao's last thought before she fell into a coma.

...

The computer screen, which had been static in the empty room, suddenly changed silently. The patient lying on the hospital bed remained asleep as before.

The only sounds were the beeping of instruments.

Just then, the person on the hospital bed suddenly gasped for breath, a look of pain on their face.

Then, the helmet on her head emitted a loud alarm, filling the entire space.

The peaceful atmosphere in the ward was suddenly broken.

A few seconds later.

With a snap.

The door was pushed open, and several people in white coats hurried in without hesitation. They went straight to the person lying on the hospital bed.

Some people look at the data, some look at the instruments, some check the charts, and there are several other things to do, with a focus on the patient's recovery.

A few seconds later, they, who had been calm, suddenly lost their composure and began to gasp softly.

"Incredible, the shadow area in the brain has been almost completely removed."

"This is simply a miracle!"

"All commands have returned to normal."

"I never expected that the semi-finished product Professor Jun made would actually be effective!"

"Not only that, I received news a few days ago that Professor Jun has also woken up."

Such a thing can only be described with one word: miracle.

These words of astonishment stopped on their own after only a few sentences; upon witnessing such a thing, these exclamations were all subconscious.

They're not usually this boisterous; after all, they're elites who've seen it all.

Those reactions only happen in a few rare cases.

The most urgent task is to assess the patient's physical condition.

And, whether her brain has returned to normal, is used to estimate when she woke up.

According to the patient's medical record, her name is Xu Qiaoqiao. Two years ago, she fell into the water and hit her head on a rock at the bottom, which caused her to fall into a coma. She has never woken up since.

The patient's nutritional status, heart rate, respiration, blood pressure and other vital signs were all good, but a subsequent brain CT scan revealed that the area was covered by a large shadow.

This shadow is very strange; no matter how we analyze it, we can't figure out how it was formed, what its composition is, or how to remove it.

However, the conclusion they could ultimately reach was that this shadow was the biggest obstacle preventing the patient from waking up, without exception.

The patient is currently in good physical condition, but just won't wake up.

However, if this continues, even with adequate medical and nursing care, patients generally only live for 6-7 years.

If it's longer, that's more than ten years, which sounds like a lot, but how does it compare to the length of her original life?

This is undoubtedly very bad news. Even if the patient is rescued and brought ashore, given her condition, death is still the ultimate fate that awaits her.

In their sleep, they unknowingly leave this world.

This is the worst possible outcome.

The doctors wanted to do more. They heard that this young girl had just graduated this year and her promising life had just begun. Moreover, she had encountered such an accident because she was saving someone.

However, there is no clue about this shadow in Xu Qiaoqiao's mind from any angle, which also means that this is a very rare case.

Just when the doctors were at their wits' end, someone suddenly brought them a glimmer of hope: the family of the child the patient had previously wanted to help.

The patient had fallen into the water while trying to save someone, and although he failed and even drowned himself, the child's family was very moved by what the patient had done.

And this small hope.

It refers to a theory previously published by Professor Jun Qijun and the inventions he made.

—A virtual external brain.

This is the name Professor Jun gave it.

Professor Jun, who was being discussed by the doctors, was diligently undergoing rehabilitation training.

He woke up earlier than Xu Qiaoqiao, two months ago.

"Professor Jun, it's time for you to rest."

The doctor, who was recording relevant information and patient conditions, was immediately stopped the moment he heard his alarm clock ring.

The young man, addressed as Professor Jun, paused in his forward movement, his thin lips tightening involuntarily. His hands, with their distinct knuckles, gripped the railing, his fingers turning white.

But he quickly regained his strength.

"Okay, I understand."

His voice was hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken in a long time.

Looking at the patient's tall, thin back, the doctor couldn't help but sigh. He thought about why Professor Jun had become like this and marveled at his resilience.
