Chapter 56 Miracle Drug



The next few days were the same as usual: eat breakfast, daydream, eat lunch, sleep, daydream, eat dinner, daydream, sleep. Perhaps it had been too long since they had such a comfortable life, and everyone just wanted to be lazy.

A week after arriving at the shelter, our contact, Xu Qi, called us to pick up our medical examination reports. After lunch, we went to the hospital to get them. When we arrived at the lobby, a nurse asked us to wait in the lobby. After about half an hour, the nurse handed us the medical examination reports and then led us to the room where we had the medical examination. It was the same familiar hospital bed. The doctor was not in the room. I wandered around the room, feeling a little anxious.

After a while, the doctor came in through the hidden door next to the medicine cabinet. This time I wasn't scared. When the doctor saw me, he walked over with a smile and said, "You're here. Come on, let me see your report."

I handed the doctor the report that I had already opened but couldn't understand. As she looked at the report, I glanced at the name tag on her chest. The name tag had the characters "茉莉" (Moli) printed on it. I couldn't help but frown. How come I didn't notice it last time? This doesn't look like her real name. Are there really people with the surname "茉"? Or am I just ignorant? But Jasmine does have a faint fragrance.

As I was staring blankly, Dr. Jasmine waved her hand in front of my eyes: "Stop daydreaming, this is my name."

I asked curiously, "Is this your real name? Is your surname Mo?"

Jasmine shook her head, but didn't explain: "I looked at your medical report, and there's nothing seriously wrong with your health. Do you have menstrual cramps?"

I hesitated for a moment and then nodded. Jasmine continued, "We have a potion that can stop menstruation after taking it, but it won't affect your body. You can consider it. After taking it, you can be free from the suffering of menstrual cramps."

I was shocked, but still had some doubts: "Won't I gain weight after my period stops? Or become irritable, lose my appetite, or something?"

Jasmine shook her head and smiled, "No, there are no side effects, and you won't have the problem you're worried about. On the contrary, after you take it, it can speed up your metabolism, and you might even lose weight."

I frowned: "Really? In this day and age, I've never even heard of such a potion. How did you get it?"

If such a drug really existed, I believe many women would rather not touch a man for five years than not inject this drug, and they might even be willing to do so for ten years.

Jasmine continued with a smile, "This is something we researched ourselves, so you can rest assured."

Although I was very tempted, I still chose to refuse. My menstrual cramps were painful, but I didn't really believe that such a miraculous medicine really existed. When Jasmine saw that I refused, she didn't say anything more and continued to look at my report: "Your body is a bit weak. Find some time to go to the activity center and do some exercise. I see that your muscle tissue is a bit hardened. It's probably because you've been lying down for the past few months since the apocalypse."

I gave an awkward laugh: "What else can I do if I'm not lying down? I can't watch TV, I can't play on my phone, I even read books while lying in bed."

Jasmine shook her head: "So although your medical report doesn't seem to have any major problems, you see, many indicators are still abnormal. In the past few months, you've mostly been eating fast food, not exercising, staying up late, and not sleeping well. You have some problems with your liver and kidneys. They're not serious, but if you don't try to improve them, they will become serious problems. I'm not trying to scare you, but last month I did a medical check-up on a survivor and found out he had stomach cancer."

I gasped: "That's pretty scary. If you're diagnosed with stomach cancer at this point, you're basically just waiting to die."

Jasmine nodded helplessly: "Yes, we don't have the medical expertise, so we can only let him spend the rest of his life in the shelter."

I pouted and nodded: "Then tell me specifically which aspect is more serious for me, so I can prescribe the right treatment."

Jasmine glanced at the report again: "Go do some physical training first to increase your muscle definition. Also, you need to improve your diet. Don't overeat or eat too much oily food. You've only been in the shelter for a few days. You have a long time ahead of you. Don't harm your body for the sake of your appetite. Eat whatever you want when you have time."

I was a little curious why Jasmine would mention binge eating. I subconsciously looked down at myself and realized that I had indeed gained some weight since I first arrived. Even when I tried to suck in my stomach, a bulge still appeared, making me look pregnant. I smiled a little embarrassedly and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Jasmine shook her head: "That's all, but you have to lie down. I'll check all over your body again to see if the rejection reaction from last time is showing on your skin. You'll have to take off all your clothes."

I obediently lay down, and Jasmine touched my body all over to make sure there were no problems. Then she told me to get up: "Okay, there are no problems. You can go back now. Your contact will come to collect your medical report later. You must give it to him. It can prove that you don't have any infectious diseases."

I got up and put on my clothes, then nodded to her as if I understood: "Okay, thank you, Dr. Jasmine, goodbye."

Stepping out of the room, I realized my emotional state was completely different from the last time I was there. Last time, I was filled with vigilance and panic, but this time, although I was a little anxious at first, that disappeared when I saw the doctor, and I felt exceptionally relaxed as I left the room.

When I arrived at the lobby, Ji Lin'an and the others were already sitting in the lounge waiting for me. I jogged up to Ji Lin'an and asked, "How are you? Is there a problem?"

Thousand-Mile Eyes interjected, "Yes, the doctor said he has kidney deficiency and told him not to overindulge in sex."

I couldn't help but laugh and said, "Really? I don't believe it."

Ji Lin'an glanced at Qianliyan and said, "I'm fine, just losing some hair. The doctor told me to get more exercise and avoid staying up late. What about you?"

I said, "I'm fine. The doctor just told me to exercise more and do some physical training."

Wufeng chimed in, "Mine's about the same. Looks like it's time we gotta get some exercise. We're just killing time anyway. I saw there's a boxing room in the activity center, how about we go learn some boxing?"

My eyes lit up: "Boxing? The kind where you wear big red gloves?"

Wu Feng nodded: "Yes, you should come too, Su Yi. Look how thin and small you are, you should practice self-defense."

I laughed and said, "Now you probably don't need to defend yourself, right? It's so safe now. You can practice using it to beat up the 'Thousand-Mile Eye' (a slang term for someone who can see a thousand miles away)."

Thousand-Mile Eyes looked anxious: "Are you alright? I didn't do anything to you, why did you hit me?"

I didn't reply. Seeing that everyone was alright, we left the hospital and went to the boxing room at the activity center on the way.
