In a civilian house in City C.
This is a very simple house with only a few basic pieces of furniture. No one would have thought that the richest man in the empire lives here.
After Shang Youyuan returned home, he immediately pushed the door and entered the innermost room.
Lying on the bed in the room was his wife Wenshi.
Since he and his wife were diagnosed with Alpha syndrome a few years ago, Shang Youyuan bought this small house in City C and settled down here with his wife.
Most of the cities on Sin Star are divided into inner cities and outer cities. The inner cities have more abundant supplies, a better environment, and naturally higher housing and commodity prices.
It’s not that Shang Youyuan didn’t want to live in the inner city, but Wen Shi didn’t want to go through so much trouble. She also said that she wanted to relive her early life before leaving.
The couple were born into a common family, and the huge assets of the Shang family were accumulated bit by bit through their hard work over most of their lives.
The couple's Alpha symptoms are similar, but Wen Shi's condition is much more serious than Shang Youyuan's.
Shang Youyuan only has difficulty walking and needs crutches to help him move, but Wenshi is already paralyzed in bed. Only her head can move, and she needs help from others to eat, drink, defecate and urinate.
Wen Shi didn't want her lover to suffer too much, so she asked Shang Youyuan to hire a nurse to take care of them both, but Shang Youyuan was not happy about it.
The two of them have been through so much ups and downs in most of their lives, so why should they be afraid of the last few years?
Of course, Yuan is not afraid.
Hearing the door opening, Ben turned his head and looked at Wen Shi outside the window: "You're back."
"I'm back." Shang Youyuan slowly sat down on the bed with his crutches and reached out to help Wen Shi tidy up her hair. "How do you feel today?"
"It's still the same." Wen Shi said, and seeing Shang Youyuan frowning slightly, she added, "I'm just a little hungry."
Shang Youyuan's expression relaxed: "It's good to be hungry. Being hungry means you have an appetite, which is a good thing!"
Wen Shi smiled and listened to the person beside the bed say, "Guess what I brought you!"
"What?" Wen Shi thought for a moment, "Could it be tomato-flavored nutrient solution? That would be great, I haven't tasted tomato flavor for a long time."
But Shang Youyuan shook his head: "No." He took out the small bag hidden behind him, made a "clang clang clang" sound, and smiled like a naughty old man, "Look! It's your favorite tomato!"
Wen Shi's face lit up, but within two seconds she suddenly frowned and said, "Did you run a long way again? I told you to rest more and not get too tired, why didn't you listen!"
“I didn’t run very far this time.” Shang Youyuan said with a smile, “I was at the exchange next to the auction venue. I was lucky and happened to meet a very powerful little guy with plant abilities, so I asked him to sell me a few.”
Wen Shi finally relaxed and continued to talk: "That's good. You have difficulty walking and you don't want to hire a nurse. You should pay more attention to it..."
Shang Youyuan responded while cutting the tomatoes into small pieces and handing them to his wife.
"This tomato..." Wen Shi's eyes lit up slightly, "It tastes great, better than any I've ever had before!"
"Really?" Shang Youyuan fed her another piece of meat. "Then you should eat more to supplement your nutrition. Your body will feel better."
Wen Shi: “You eat too.”
Shang Youyuan said: "I have eaten it. I tried one when I bought it, but I have a rough mouth and can't taste any difference."
A tomato was quickly shared and eaten up. Shang Youyuan finally couldn't resist Wen Shi's constant nagging and ate a few bites with her.
Shang Youyuan did not tell Wenshi about the special medicine. He knew Wenshi's personality well. If she knew that there was only one pill of the medicine, she would definitely want to keep it for him and would not want to take it herself.
Wen Shi's condition is now barely stable. Although her life is inconvenient, there has been no rapid deterioration in her condition, so there is no need to rush.
So Shang Youyuan planned to find an opportunity to secretly feed the medicine to Wen Shi.
Thinking of this, Shang Youyuan stood up with the help of a crutch and planned to put the remaining tomato in the refrigerator, but somehow his foot suddenly slipped and he was about to fall to the ground.
Wen Shi was shocked: "Lao Shang!"
Shang Youyuan held on to the chair in time and stood firm. His eyes inadvertently glanced at Wen Shi's hand and suddenly saw her index finger flick.
Shang Youyuan thought he had seen it wrong, but the next second, Wen Shi's fingers moved again.
It was a very subtle movement, but it really moved.
Shang Youyuan was stunned: "Shishi, Shishi, your hand! Your fingers just moved!"
Wen Shi was stunned when she heard this, and subconsciously denied it: "How is it possible, Lao Shang, are you dazzled?"
"No! It just moved!" Shang Youyuan said excitedly, but also felt very confused.
The special medicine hasn’t been taken yet, how come... Shang Youyuan was suddenly stunned. It was true that the special medicine had not been taken yet, but Wen Shi had just eaten a tomato.
Could it be that tomato?
“Ahh—”
A big hand at the side handed over a tissue. Lin Anan took the tissue and wiped her nose. She looked sick and listless, lying on the pillow like a little puddle.
Xiong Yingjun couldn't help but say with joy: "Whose kid is sneezing? Pu ah..."
Before he could finish, Feng Wu glared at him. Xiong Yingjun scratched his head and tried to make amends: "It's quite cute."
Lin Anan ignored him, feeling dizzy and not wanting to talk. He had fallen ill since he helped Si Youlin calm down his violent superpowers yesterday.
According to Lin Anan's own analysis, the reason for this illness was not only the double overdraft of supernatural powers and mental strength, but also because he had been camping in the wilderness for so many days before, with irregular eating, drinking and living habits, which had planted some minor hidden dangers in his body, and this time he was implicated.
The illness is not serious, just a little uncomfortable.
On the day Lin Anan fell ill, Feng Wu made an appointment with a therapist in City C. Unfortunately, there were too few therapists on Sin Star, and the fastest one was scheduled until the next afternoon.
Feng Wuyong rubbed the little cub's head with his fingers. The temperature from his fingertips was slightly hot, which made him frown subconsciously.
The little boy's illness blocked many of the questions in his mind. No matter how many questions he wanted to ask, Feng Wu couldn't bring himself to ask them when he saw how listless the boy looked.
"We can go see the doctor this afternoon." Feng Wu said, "Do you want to eat anything?"
Lin Anan: “Bingji.”
There is nothing I want to eat. The food in this world is too monotonous. It is either nutrient solution or various dry foods. Even the cute snacks are dry and hard to swallow even with water.
However, when Feng Wu handed her a piece of rabbit biscuit, Lin Anan cooperated and opened her mouth, eating with a loud crunch.
No matter how bad the food tastes, he can't go against his stomach. His mental strength and supernatural powers have been doubly overdrawn, and now is the time when he needs a lot of food and nutritional supplements to recover.
After eating the biscuits, Lin Anan turned around to look at Si Youlin on the bed next to her.
Si Youlin has been in a coma since the end of yesterday's treatment. He has recovered into human form. Although he still looks weak, Lin Anan, who forcibly treated him, knows that Si Youlin's body condition is better than before.
Originally, he could only hold out for a week at most, but now... he should be able to hold out for about half a month, which is enough time for his superpowers and mental strength to recover, and then he can receive the next life-extending treatment.
The little cub calculated the time and felt relieved, then he lay on the pillow again like a shapeless little pancake.
Alpha syndrome...Lin Anan touched the terminal on the small tentacle.
During the two days of rest, he used the terminal to access the Star Network to learn about the situation in this world. Unexpectedly, when he opened the Star Network hot search list, five of the top ten entries contained the word "Alpha".
Lin Anan inevitably learned about Alpha Syndrome.
The cause of the disease is unknown, it is contagious, the symptoms vary, but they are all equally incurable.
And on the planet called Sin Star where he is now, everyone suffers from Alpha Syndrome.
To put it nicely, this is a planet specially designed for Alpha patients to recuperate and spend their old age in peace, but in fact, other people are afraid of being infected, so they are "abandoning" these patients in disguise.
Lin Anan could understand their thoughts, but could not agree with them.
But... Lin Anan thought of the time when Feng Wu's mental power went haywire, and also of the time when she treated Si Youlin yesterday.
Although the effect was minimal, his healing ability did work on these two people.
Feng Wu: "Have the other two people who took the special medicine been found?"
Xiong Yingjun shook his head: "Someone saw Wuhura leave City C, but our people didn't find his whereabouts. There is also the old man... We have inquired all over the inner city of City C, and no one knows where the old man lives."
Feng Wu frowned: "Look outside the city too. He has difficulty walking and won't run too far. He should live in City C."
Hearing their conversation, Lin Anan's heart also tightened.
The special medicine is a life-accelerating drug. Drinking it is almost equivalent to death. However, only they know about this at present, and the other two buyers are not aware of it.
The little guy sighed in his heart and now could only pray that they had not taken the special medicine.
In the afternoon, Feng Wu took Lin Anan to the only large hospital in City C as promised.
The dazed little cub kept lying in Feng Wu's palm, too lazy to even move.
The therapist saw Feng Wu pushing the door open and asked, "Sir, where do you feel uncomfortable?"
"It's not me." Feng Wu spread out his palm, "It's this cub."
Seeing the palm-sized cub, the therapist was stunned and sighed subconsciously: "It's so young..."
There was a hint of pity in his tone.
"Can you restore your original form?" the healer asked. "It will be a little more complicated to test the second form."
Feng Wu looked down at Lin Anan, and Lin Anan also looked up, her eyes blank and innocent: "...嘤叽."
Feng Wu then shook his head at the therapist, who frowned slightly: "You still can't change your form? Or you just can't change your form?"
Feng Wu did not answer. He thought about the little cub who had been showing up in the second form for some time. He suspected that the little cub's Alpha symptom was that he couldn't change back to human form.
The therapist asked, "What's wrong with this child?"
"Coughing, sneezing, fever, general weakness, no appetite..." Feng Wu said a long string of words, "Maybe my mental strength and supernatural powers are overdrawn."
"Double overdraft?" The therapist's expression became serious. "Double overdraft at such a young age. If it is too serious, it may cause irreversible damage to the body."
There was a hint of blame in his tone, as if he was condemning Feng Wu, as a parent, for not taking good care of the child.
Feng Wu did not explain himself. He silently listened to the therapist's instructions and put the cub into the testing cabin.
A string of data flashed across the light screen quickly. Except for a few fleeting yellows, the rest were all green, representing health.
Feng Wu secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Lin Anan patted Feng Wu's fingers with her little tentacles to comfort him: "Yingji."
Don't worry, Brother Wolf. Although he looks delicate, he is actually very tough!
Feng Wu, however, took the little boy's behavior as an uncomfortable urging, so he squatted slightly and gently rubbed the little boy's soft forehead with his thumb.
"His mental power and supernatural powers are slightly overdrawn, and his immune system is slightly out of balance." The therapist said, "It's not a big problem. The superficial symptoms, such as coughing and fever, can be completely cured after one visit to the treatment cabin. He needs to rest for a while because his mental power and supernatural powers are overdrawn. Let him drink more nutrient solution these days. He is slightly malnourished."
Lin Anan nodded inwardly, thinking that this was similar to the results of his self-assessment.
But... why does he need to go to the treatment cabin? His cough, fever, sneezing, etc. are not serious, and can be cured by taking some medicine. Why does he need to go to the treatment cabin? !
Seeing that Feng Wu was about to put him into the treatment cabin, Lin Anan became anxious: "Boo-hoo, boo-hoo!"
Brother Wolf, no! Let's just take some medicine! This therapist is a black-hearted person. The treatment cabin is precious. He is trying to cheat you out of your money!
Unfortunately, Feng Wu did not understand Lin Anan's meaning this time. Seeing the little cub struggling so hard, he thought the little cub was afraid of lying in the treatment cabin.
"Don't be afraid." Feng Wu gently pinched his little tentacle to comfort him, "I'm here and I won't leave."
The therapist also comforted him: "It's very comfortable in the treatment room. Uncle will play a song for you. After listening to it, you will feel better!"
Feng Wu finally put Lin Anan into the cabin. After the cabin door was closed, Lin Anan pounced on the transparent cabin door and turned herself into a soft pie.
The music that the therapist kindly played next to my ears was the kind of lullaby that one would use to lull a baby to sleep: "My dear, little baby, sleep well and grow tall, and you'll have candy when you wake up..."
Feng Wu's fingers fell on the tips of the little cub's tentacles through the cabin door, and he slightly curled the corners of his lips towards him.
Lin Anan sniffed and almost cried out loud.
His big brother, how could he be so happy even though he was cheated out of his money!
