Chapter 9 –Elixir
“Let’s monitor it for now”
When the doctor spoke in a calm manner, Hahn-suhjin asked in a somewhat concerned manner
“Will it be ok to leave it as it is?”
“The cancer went into reh we didn’t put you through any treatent, it must mean that this is a result of your body’s natural i as a treatht make the situation worse”
It was an explanation he could accept, so Hahn-suhjin was satisfied
Truthfully, he had been worried about the doctor reco another form of treatmentThen he would have to come up with an excuse to decline the recoht affect the efficacy of the Elixir
“Let’s just keep a close observation on you Let’s schedule frequent testsLet’s have one every 4 day”
‘He wants a test every 4 day? That’ll cost a lot of money’
If he combined the money on from the lottery ticket and his retirement fund, he still had around 200,000 Still, Hahn-suhjin was hesitantNow that his fatal disease had been cured, he orried about his livelihood
‘Ooh-ah I spent 15 iving him 500,000’
Now that he thought about it he keenly felt the loss of the reat sum of money he would have never possessed even if he worked his entire life
Now that he came back from the brink of death he missed the money Hahn-suhijn smirked
The doctorof his smile, so the doctor also smiled
“Congratulation”
“Excuse et a test every four daysIsn’t that too frequent?I don’t have any money, so I don’t think I’ll be able to handle the hospital fee…”
“M way”
“YesPlease speak”
“It is rare to find a patient like youTo put it in another way, this is an almost a miraculous caseIn the name of research, do you mind if we run soe any hospital fees”
“Did you say research?That’s a bit……”
Hahn-suhjin didn’t like the idea of a hu himHe put on a dissatisfied expression as he trailed off with his wordsThe doctor spoke as he waved his hand
“AigoI know you are i like thatWe are just going to test your blood and body We’ll just take some tissue sample, check your reflexes, and take so anything that would be dangerous to youDon’t worry”
Hahn-suhjin thought hard on the doctor’s sincere request It didn’t look like he was lying or putting on a false front, but Hahn-suhjin would prefer not to do this
‘It took four days to recover thisthe ElixirWon’t I be cured soon?If my condition turns for the worse, I just have to drink the Elixir again’
He still had about 90 of the Elixir leftAfter he thought it over, Hahn-suhjin shook his head from side to side
“It’s all rightI’ll just get the test using my own money”
“Please don’t be like this, sir”
“I’ll leave when oneI have to work if I want to be able to eat and liveIt see a full recovery soon, so I don’t think participating in a research is a long term solution”
“Then do you mind if we conduct our research until you are fully healed??”
“Until I’m fully healed…… YesI can ith that”
Hahn-suhjin thought there would be no harreed to itHe was also a bit curiousHe wanted to kno the Elixir had treated his disease
The doctor ined a dedicated medical staff to Hahn-suhjinThe doctor was also a professor, and he held great influence within the hospital
“The man has an extraordinary ie pancreatic cancer without getting a single treatment?”
“If we could study his i cancer”
He was given a special single occupant hospital rooossips from the medical personnel in attendance next to himMost of their conversations were riddled withwhat they were talking aboutHe was barely able to co of his situation by the casual conversation held by the nurses
The hospital provided hiiven the latest coaiven delicious foodThey didn’t skiratiate themselves to him
“ProfessorPlease look at this”
“What is it?”
“It’s a substance extracted from patient Hahn-suhjin’s blood…I’ve never seen such a substanceIt doesn’t seem like a substance that is produced naturally by the body”
“A drug?”
Professor Kihts as he furrowed his browsHe’d never heard of such a drug being in development
“He’s never received any medication for treatmentPatient Hahn-suhjin’s immune system must have developed a natural resistance”
“Still, I’ve never seen such a thing”
“This ht be a unique immune system only possessed by our patient, Hahn-suhjin So, is that all you have to report?”
“NoI’ve discovered so incredible”
“What is it?”
