Chapter 381 A glimmer of hope
At the end of the month, as usual, Mr. Yu asked the dean for three days off and took a spaceship to the sanatorium planet, which was a day's journey away from the capital planet.
In the intensive care unit, Mr. Yu looked at the big bed in the ward across the visiting wall.
A very young man was lying on the bed, his face pale and his breathing weak. If it weren't for the indication on the instrument, he would have seemed dead.
"You're here." After Old Yu stood there for a while, a doctor came over, followed Old Yu's gaze, and sighed: "Mr. Yu's condition has not improved. I'm afraid..."
The young man lying on the hospital bed is Mr. Yu’s grandson. It has been ten years since his accident, and Mr. Yu comes to the sanatorium to see him every month.
This was not the first time that Mr. Yu had heard the doctor say this, and he knew what the doctor had not finished saying, but he was unwilling to give up, no matter what.
After looking at his grandson a few more times with reluctance, Old Yu turned and walked out. His hunched back looked even weaker than when he came.
After leaving the intensive care unit, Mr. Yu took a hovercraft to another convalescent area.
The patients here are those with moderate symptoms.
He found a ward with familiarity. This time, Mr. Yu did not go closer. He just stopped at the gate, looked from a distance for a while, and then left.
In a ward in a high-rise building.
The middle-aged man leaned on the hospital bed and looked out the window. An old figure flashed before his eyes. He suddenly thought of something and started coughing because of his anxiety. "I think I saw my father just now. Cough cough, Madam, go quickly. Go and see him."
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away, don't worry." Seeing this, the beautiful woman beside the bed hurriedly helped her husband to calm down. After her husband felt a little better, she chased after him. After more than ten minutes, she caught up with Mr. Yu who was about to leave quietly.
"Father! Father, wait a minute!"
Being stopped by his daughter-in-law, Old Yu frowned and said disapprovingly: "Kuan'er can't be short of people, you should go back quickly!"
"Father, you haven't appeared in front of A Kuan for several months. A Kuan is always asking about you. You should come up with me."
Madam Yu wanted to take the old man up with her, and Old Yu also wanted to see if his son was okay, but after thinking it over, he refused. He turned his back and said firmly, "No, I have something else to do. I have to go back to the capital star soon."
What’s the harm in seeing it?
It's just the father and son looking at each other sadly
He devoted his whole life to studying mental power but was unable to save his son and grandson. He was too ashamed to see them.
Thinking of his son's and grandson's conditions, Mr. Yu felt extremely uncomfortable, as if the pain was being cut by a knife. He no longer paid attention to his daughter-in-law's pleas and calls, took a step, got on the hovercraft and left the sanatorium.
He had originally planned to stay on the sanatorium planet for a day, but he changed his mind and went straight to the interstellar terminal, ready to take the next ship back to the capital planet.
Just as Old Yu was about to board the plane, Xia Ming called in: "Old Yu, are you on the recuperation planet now?"
"Just tell me if you have something to say."
Every time after visiting his son and grandson at the sanatorium, Mr. Yu was in a bad mood. He didn't even have a good temper towards his old friends. He asked Xia Ming to tell the story quickly. Xia Ming knew that he must be feeling very uncomfortable, so he didn't delay and told him everything he wanted to say.
From his initial bad temper to his later indifference, and then to being shocked beyond words, after hearing Xia Ming's purpose, Old Yu was petrified on the spot. It took Xia Ming calling him several times before he came back to his senses.
"Just wait! I'll be back right now!!!"
After hurriedly giving instructions, Mr. Yu suppressed his pounding heart and spent a day returning home. He arrived at the research institute at dawn the next day.
"Old man Xia, what you said yesterday was true?" When seeing the person, Old Yu's first reaction was to confirm the authenticity of the matter.
Xia Ming knew that he was afraid that the last glimmer of hope was an illusion, so he took Old Yu to the testing room next door, met the twenty volunteer soldiers of the Fifth Army, and retrieved their test reports.
"See for yourself."
After reading the report and confirming the physical condition of the twenty soldiers again, Old Yu stood there in a daze, and suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahahahaha! Good!"
As he laughed, tears welled up in Old Yu's eyes. After a few minutes, his expression turned serious and he said to Xia Ming solemnly, "Old Xia, can we add two more volunteers?"
Add people?
"Are you talking about Yu Kuan and your precious grandson?" Old Master Xia knew the situation of the Yu family. He reacted as soon as his old friend spoke, but he was a little hesitant: "Isn't this a bit too hasty?"
Yu Lao's son once served in the Second Army. In an accident, he was unfortunately infected with Zerg genes. Later, Yu Lao's grandson was also infected with genes during an outdoor research mission, and his condition was even more serious than his father's.
Over the years, Old Yu has been trying to find a way to crack the Zerg genes, but there has been almost no progress. Seeing that his son can only rely on the treatment cabin to maintain his life and his grandson is in danger, Old Yu's heart is tormented all the time.
As a professional, Mr. Yu was certain that this was a ray of hope for his son and precious grandson, and he had to seize it.
"Old man Xia, I just went to see my grandson yesterday. His condition is very bad. I want to try it no matter what."
There is a dead end not far away, so what’s the point of being a volunteer?
This is vitality!
Can you not be anxious?
Facing his old friend's pitiful look, Old Master Xia sighed and laughed: "Alright, alright, let me ask that girl first."
???
Who to ask?
In the communication yesterday, Xia Ming did not explain too much, but only told Mr. Yu that there had been a breakthrough in the restoration of mental power and wanted to invite him to join the research team.
At present, Mr. Yu still doesn’t know about Ye Jiaojiao’s existence. When he heard who Xia Ming was going to ask about, he was confused until Ye Jiaojiao appeared.
"Student Ye Jiaojiao?!"
The door opened and Ye Jiaojiao walked in. She saw the soldiers of the Fifth Army standing up to greet Ye Jiaojiao. Old Yu watched with his eyes wide open, vaguely guessing something.
Could it be that all those major developments were brought about by Mr. Ye?
"Grandpa Xia, Elder Yu."
After greeting Grandpa Xia and Old Man Yu, Ye Jiaojiao listened to Xia Ming's explanation of Old Man Yu's request. Only then did she realize that something had happened to Old Man Yu's son and grandson.
"No problem. If Elder Yu is willing, you can bring the patient here directly, and you can arrange for treatment then."
Outside the academy, Mr. Yu didn't know how to get along with the younger generation. When he saw Ye Jiaojiao agreed to let his son and grandson come for treatment, he admired Ye Jiaojiao's extraordinaryness and also kept her help in his heart.
With the two big guys gathered together and with Old Yu in charge of the team, a simple team was quickly drafted.
Ye Jiaojiao didn't understand these professional matters, so she only needed to send some medicinal food from time to time to facilitate the research at the research institute, as well as the issue of extracting spirit stones.
Mer Group's extraction method is a core secret and cannot be easily detected. Ye Jiaojiao thought of another way and ran to Bai Feng for help. It took a total of three days to set up a small spirit gathering array within the research institute to facilitate Grandpa Xia and Grandpa Yu to extract the spiritual energy from the spirit stone. As for how to mix the spiritual energy into medicine, it will take some time to study it later.
