Li Lechen happened to be there at that time. Just like how everyone is learning foreign languages ​​nowadays, distinguishing sounds from a distance is a skill that can be learned and mastered.

Now that my memories have returned, so have my skills.

Upon closer listening, I could indeed hear my mother's voice, talking to another older woman.

"Grandma, I know about your granddaughter's situation, but Li Lechen's situation in our family isn't looking good either," came my mother's voice.

"I beg you, if he doesn't save my granddaughter, she'll die." It was the voice of an older woman.

Li Lechen recognized her immediately; she was Gu Xiaoman's grandmother.

Clearly, it was Gu Xiaoman's grandmother who came looking for her, or they just happened to run into each other at the door, or perhaps the two had arranged to talk here.

As for the content of the conversation, you know what it is without even listening.

The mother continued, "It's really not a question of whether we can save him or not. My son almost died too. He still has a large tumor in his brain, and surgery would be very risky. He can only recuperate at home."

“It’s just bone marrow extraction, it shouldn’t have anything to do with the brain…” Gu Xiaoman’s grandmother’s confidence was clearly lacking.

My mother seemed to have made up her mind again, and her tone became firm: "No matter what, I will not agree to him donating bone marrow!"

"I beg you! I..."

Li Lechen heard a "plop" sound, which meant that Gu Xiaoman's grandmother had knelt down.

Then, a commotion arose in the surrounding area, which must have attracted many neighbors.

Sure enough, Mom started crying to the neighbors: "Everyone, please tell me, my son Lechen is sick and has been in a coma for more than two months. The doctors said he almost became a vegetable. Now he has a tumor in his brain and I don't know what to do. Donating bone marrow is such a big deal, it will definitely cause a lot of damage to his body. I'm not saying I'd stand by and watch him die, it's just that there's really no way to save him."

After saying that, he seemed to be addressing Gu Xiaoman's grandmother again: "If the money for the surgery isn't enough, I can contribute some, after all, they are classmates. But please don't bring up the bone marrow donation again. Your granddaughter, my son, I believe you can understand my feelings."

"But......"

After that, there was no sound. Mom must have overcome all obstacles and left.

Well, this is indeed a difficult situation.

Li Lechen couldn't tell his mother that the "tumor" in his brain was actually just a container for his memories and wouldn't affect his bone marrow donation. But if he didn't tell her, he definitely couldn't donate the bone marrow.

Of course, in theory, Li Lechen is already 18 years old and can make his own decision, but he doesn't want his parents to worry.

However, it seems that he had already planned to use the "medical resources" in the hospital... but he didn't know what the "medical resources" had to do with his current stand-in.

Aier Hospital Medical Resource Management Area.

A271 has been getting increasingly sharp lately, and he's noticed that the hospital seems to be becoming more and more lax in its management of these "medical resources."

During lunch that day, A271 approached F001 and started chatting with him.

The two were chatting, and if it weren't for the strange place of the hospital, where both were wearing special dustproof suits, it would look like Lai Haoren and Li Lechen themselves were chatting.

Then, Mo Longao's "medical resources" C203 also came over.

The three of them have been closely united ever since they witnessed the sudden disappearance of more than two thousand people together in the middle of the night.

Fortunately, over the next two months, although the hospital continued to administer medication daily, there were no more large-scale disappearances. If there were, it was the same as before: selecting lucky individuals for a special area, and then one or two would leave.

"That B721 has been alive for two months."

Mo Longao pointed to a person in the corner and said, “Medical Resources C203.”

B721 is Kang Shuaifu's "medical resource." He had previously undergone heart and brain nerve replacement surgery at the hospital in a short period of time, resulting in two patients coming and going in succession.

After B721 appeared, it became the focus of their attention.

"He seemed very down and in a bad state," observed A271 more closely.

"I haven't been feeling very well lately either, but I'm a little better these past couple of days." F001, Li Lechen's medical resource, rubbed his temples and forced a not-so-good smile.

“You’re different from him. Have you noticed that his eyes are wandering, like a dead person?”

"Yes, I feel like I might faint at any moment."

"Isn't it said that everyone receives the best medical care and therefore has no health problems?"

"Who knows? Didn't I suddenly have a stomachache last time?" F001 said.

Both A271 and C203 were taken aback: "Were you faking your stomachache last time?"

"How could I have faked it?" F001's lips twitched. "How could I fake it like that? Of course, I really did have a stomachache, but I exaggerated it a little. It wasn't so bad that I fainted from the pain, but it really hurt a lot."

"......"

"......"

The two were speechless.

They genuinely believed that F001's stomachache was faking, so they were worried that he would be found out. Unexpectedly, it turned out he was really in pain.

"How could this happen? When you went to check later, did you find out what the problem was?" A271 asked.

"They didn't say anything, they just went through the normal procedure with me. But I suspect that some organs were removed from my body because for about five minutes, I felt a slight warmth in my lower abdomen, and then it seemed like something was gone."
