Chapter 781 – Identification of the Patient
At a time when everyone was aiming for one person with their own goals.
Without knowing anything about that fact, I came to the hospital in person to meet Elisabeth’s older sister, Rielle.
‘Did you say here?’
When I arrived at the hospital according to the information provided by the system, I found that the place was much larger than I thought.
It is a hospital that can only be compared to five large hospitals in Korea.
“Wow… It’s this wide?”
When you look at the entire hospital with the help of the system, you will be amazed at how spacious it is.
The wards themselves, each divided into specialties, are so large that comparison with Korea is impossible.
Additionally, when I looked inside, the beds were not all close together, but there was enough room to clearly maintain personal space.
Unlike Korea, the quality of service itself was different because a considerable price was charged for each treatment.
‘Of course money is the best.’
In the United States, we know that hospitals are for-profit, so we have to pay significant medical expenses.
On the other hand, Korea’s insurance is so good that the government supports it, so the prices are low.
Of course, there are places where hospital fees are cheaper, but since these places are only visited by the rich, the services will inevitably be different.
Once inside, I looked around the incredibly spacious lobby and found the hospital room where Riel was.
“It means it’s here.”
Perhaps because they are from a wealthy family, they seem to be using the VVIP hospital room rather than the VIP level.
I moved to a room on the top floor of the hospital, avoiding people’s gaze, and as soon as I entered, I stopped when I saw a significant number of security guards.
‘I just can’t get into this…’
It is full of Westerners wearing black suits, as if they think they are very important people.
There were about 30 people guarding the place with no blind spots, so it seemed difficult to just go in.
Even if you use an invisibility potion, you will inevitably leave a trace if you open the door and go inside.
I wanted to see it, but I didn’t want to spend that much time looking, so I took an invisibility potion and tried to sneak in through the window.
‘This might be possible.’
If you just open the window on a high floor and go in, you’ll get caught, but if you use an invisibility potion, it’s okay.
Once you have a plan, you should move right away. After taking an invisibility potion in the bathroom and taking off my clothes, I went outside and started climbing the wall where Riel’s hospital room was.
Thanks to having the body of a half-body, climbing up the walls of high-rise buildings is not that difficult.
I arrived at my destination with curtains drawn without any problems and listened closely to see if anyone was inside.
‘There is no one.’
The inside is so quiet that you can’t even feel the presence of people.
It would be impossible to freely enter the hospital room where the family’s forbidden jade leaf is located unless you are a family member or attending physician.
Since I’ve been sleeping for over 3 years anyway, I guess there’s nothing to worry about.
I even used a sound-blocking item in case someone came in due to the sound of opening the window. I opened the window and entered the hospital room.
‘Wow… That’s huge.’
When we go inside, we see many machines with various things attached to each person.
Most of them were life support equipment, while others were alarms that could notify you in case a dangerous situation occurred.
Thanks to the system explaining the machine one by one, I learned that there was no alarm system and looked at the woman lying on the bed.
‘Hmm… Looking at it like this, I’m not sure?’
From the information found by the system, looking at her old photos, she seemed to be a beautiful woman with a different charm than Elizabeth, but perhaps because she did nothing but sleep for three years, her beauty was greatly damaged.
I felt that way especially when I saw the white hair that had faded from the beautiful blonde hair.
‘There’s nothing but bones.’
It was unable to consume food and was subsisting on fluids and nutrients to maintain minimal life, so its body was truly unsightly, with only bones remaining.
If you look at the pictures when she was healthy, she seemed to have bigger breasts than Elizabeth, but now she doesn’t seem to have any volume at all.
As I quietly looked down at her, I used [Her eyes of lust] To check her condition.
Name: Riel Reichel
Age: 27
Height: 170cm Weight: 40kg
Breasts: A cup
Erogenous zones: pussy, nipples, mouth, tongue.
Virginity: Yes
Sexual preference: None.
Sexual desire: None.
Status: Dying.
When I checked the condition with [Eyes of Sexual Desire], I could immediately see how serious it was.
Although she is 170cm tall, her weight is abnormally low due to her bare bones, and she looks like she is dying.
Also, perhaps because I had been unconscious for three years, my sexual desire was completely non-existent.
‘It is serious.’
She said she was dying, so even if she was on life support, she probably wouldn’t last very long.
No matter how much you forcefully extend lifespan using machines, there will be a limit.
‘Can you check what disease the system has?’
[It is a new disease that cannot be confirmed at all with the information currently available to humans.]
This is a disease that I have never seen before even in a system that learns knowledge by following human information.
Honestly, I don’t know if you could call this a disease. There was nothing wrong at all, but he was just unconscious.
‘Can it be cured with [Panacea]?’
[It is possible if it is a panacea that has the effect of treating any condition.]
The good news is that it can be treated with a panacea sold in stores.
However, the important problem was that curing the disease did not mean that her lifespan would increase.
[The body has already lost its proper function. Even if you treat the disease, there is a high possibility that you will not survive for long.]
‘What if you use a potion?’
[It is difficult to restore the original lifespan with just a potion. Elixir must be used together.]
They say that the condition is much more serious than I realized and that I need to use [Elixir].
I was worried when I heard that it could be cured if [Elixir] And [Panacea] Were used together.
If you combine the two, you will need an enormous amount of points, a whopping 250,000 points.
Except when purchasing a level-up coupon, I was worried because I had never spent such a large amount of money.
I still have hundreds of millions of points left, but since I can’t contact the Creator, I have no means of recovering them.
The story is that it will be over once she uses it all, but is she really someone worth spending this amount of money on?
‘That’s not true.’
Ron knew my parents and his abilities were proven, so I was happy to use him.
But the woman lying in front of me right now is not Riel at all.
It’s just that he has the information that he is the family’s favorite Jade Leaf and that he has a benevolent personality that everyone likes.
To be honest, the biggest reason why I used the item for Ron was because I was close to his parents.
I don’t know her and am not in a position to control her family, so is it right to save her?
‘What is her expected remaining lifespan now in the system?’
[Approximately 3 months left. After that, she will surely die.]
Lifespan is not that short either. Since the disease can be cured directly with the item, there is still a lot of left.
As I was contemplating what to do, I decided that I wouldn’t be able to decide right away, so I decided to step back.
‘Should I put it on hold?’
If I get treatment, I plan to use 250,000 points to get enough money.
Since I only came here to check the status now, I decided to go back.
After putting back the curtains and going out through the window, I put on the clothes I had left in the bathroom and went back to the hotel.
————————
Around the time when Lee Jin-seok was returning to the hotel after seeing Riel.
Elizabeth was currently moving to the mansion where President Ron Keitel was located.
‘I need to meet you in person.’
We need to see for ourselves whether he has really cured his dementia and looks much younger.
Originally, I didn’t plan on caring at all because I was taking care of her older sister, but if it was cured, wouldn’t I have to take advantage of it?
Fortunately, her family, which was famous in England, was able to participate in the banquet of the Keitel military company, and she quickly became a Zen master.
“Welcome.”
“Thank you for welcoming us in person.”
“Hehe, I heard that a scion of Britain’s prestigious Reichel family is coming in person. Shouldn’t I be there to welcome him?”
Unlike the businessman Ron Keitel, the Reichel family is a British political family.
Because of her considerable reputation, even President Ron Keitel could not put her down.
‘It looks fine on the outside?’
Her complexion is so good and her movements are so fine that it’s hard to believe she’s over 80 years old.
People who had a hard life when they were young tend to develop bone disease as they get older, but Ron Keitel showed no such signs at all.
Elizabeth, who found the information that he had cured her dementia and looked 10 years younger, watched him even more closely.
‘Hmm… The second daughter of the Reichel family came to see me…’
As Elizabeth was watching her role more closely, Chairman Ron was wondering why she had made an appointment to visit him today.
He is well aware of the reputation of the Reichel family, which is in charge of British politics.
It is a family that has amassed enormous wealth and has been a traditional noble family for over 100 years, making them one of the most recognized families in England.
‘I definitely said that my eldest daughter was sick.’
The fact that her eldest daughter, Rielle, had an incurable disease was a secret from the public, but it was not that difficult for her to obtain such information as President Ron.
The important thing is why she came to visit him in the United States without even having any contact with her.
‘Has the information been leaked?’
There is absolutely no reason for a British political family to visit the chairman of an American military company.
If you need military supplies and want to make a deal, you would rather meet the president and deal with him alone. Would you rather find yourself as a mere military company?
Among the reasons why the second daughter of a family with whom there had been no contact until recently came to visit, there was only one suspect.
‘Someone leaked information about Lee Jin-seok.’
That’s why he moved after hearing the news that he had dementia and that he was healthier than before.
Starting with the steel business and working your way up to a famous American military company, the most important thing is knowledge.
In order to succeed, he had to be able to figure out what the other person wanted first, so his insight was beyond extraordinary.
The inference was not difficult, as I knew roughly how busy the Reichel family had been to treat the eldest daughter after receiving the news that she was sick.
“It’s past lunchtime, so I’d like to prepare some tea. Is that okay?”
“Thank you for your consideration.”
“Here, come over and bring us a cup of tea.”
“Yes.”
Chairman Ron, who approached the employee and asked for tea, quietly looked at Elizabeth in front of him.
With long beautiful golden hair and rare green eyes, she was a woman of considerable charm.
Of course, a woman’s appearance was not that important to Chairman Ron, who was quite old.
What he considers important is the look in people’s eyes, and people who want something cannot easily hide it no matter how hard they try.
Especially if he is a young man who has not lived even half of the life he has lived.
‘For what purpose did you come here?’
When I look into the other person’s eyes, I know that they want something. However, it is currently unclear whether what she wants is to cure her sister.
Couldn’t they really come here to make a deal on military supplies?
You have to be open to many possibilities so that you can respond flexibly when asked a question.
The two explored each other without saying a word until the car arrived, and then they started drinking and talking.
“Thank you for accepting our sudden meeting.”
“No, the direct descendant of the Reichel family is coming, so of course we should welcome them.”
Most of the conversations that started after drinking tea were formal.
They are polite to each other, and they say cliche things like, “What’s going on these days?” Or “The mansion is really amazing.”
It was a frustrating conversation for Chairman Ron, who likes to get straight to the point and talk, but he didn’t show it.
In the first place, I knew that most people who were noble family members valued courtesy and that this kind of conversation was basic.
While we were just having a meaningless conversation, a conversation with today’s purpose finally began.
