Limitless Dream
[009] Elixir
“Let's wait and see. ”
When the doctor spoke calmly, Han Seo-jin asked with some concern.
“Is it okay to just leave it alone? ”
“In a month, I had terminal cancer cured without any action. This is not due to external factors, it's due to the body's natural immunity. It's not better to try drugs or other treatments that break your immunity. ”
It was a reasonable explanation, and Seojin was satisfied.
In fact, he was thinking about how to refuse if the doctor asked for another treatment. I don't know how other treatments will affect my elixir's effectiveness.
“Let's keep an eye on it for now. I run tests all the time. I want it to be every three days. ”
Once every three days? That's gonna cost a lot of money. ’
Combined with the lottery winnings and severance pay, there were more than 200 million left in the hands, but Han Seo-jin insisted. After fixing the death sickness, I became concerned about the problem of eating and living.
‘Ugh, I can't believe I spent 1.5 billion. I think I could have just given you 500 million. ’
Thinking about it now, the money was very bad. Isn't it an enormous sum you could earn in your lifetime if you were the same?
Now that you're alive and well, I think that's a waste of money. Han Seo-jin smiled.
The doctor who understood that smile in a different sense smiled.
“Congratulations."
“Oi, you asked me to test you once every three days, but it's too often, isn't it? I can't afford it because I don't have any money... ”
“Well……. Don't get me wrong, please listen to me. ”
“Yes, go ahead. ”
“It's a very rare case like you, and it's a miracle. So I'd like to do some research for academic purposes, is that okay? I won't pay for the treatment. ”
“Research? That's a little... ”
Seojin, who thought of human experimentation, was somewhat reluctant to speak. The doctor said with a hand stroke.
“Oh, I know what you're thinking, but it's not like that. They're just blood and fluid tests, biopsies, simple reaction tests, MRIs. Research never does anything harmful or dangerous. Relax."
At the doctor's humble request, I thought carefully. There didn't seem to be any lies or hypocrisy, but I didn't want to.
‘After three days of drinking elixir, won't this all be over soon? If you want it to get worse, you can have another elixir. ’
The elixir was still around 90%. After finishing his thought, Seojin shakes his head.
“It's okay. I'll just pay for my test. ”
“Sir, don't do that. ”
“I'll get back to work when I'm cured. I have to work to survive. Seems like it's going to get better soon, but we can't just sit here and do research on it. ”
“Then why don't you just do it until it heals?" ”
“Just until I heal... yes, I like it, too. ”
Seojin happily agreed, thinking that he had nothing to lose. He was also a little curious. How the elixir cured the disease.
Immediately, the doctor established a dedicated medical staff. He was a professor and a very influential figure in the hospital.
“You seem to have excellent autoimmunity skills. How did end-stage pancreatic cancer get so far without any treatment? ”
“There would be tremendous improvements in the treatment of cancer if we could identify this immunity. ”
Han Seo-jin, who was assigned to a single-room special room, heard the story of the medical staff next to him. Most of them were mixed with specialized medical terminology, and the nurses could barely understand the stories or stories they were exchanging.
The hospital offered all sorts of benefits for him. I did not save money on the latest computers and various video game appliances, titles, and delicious food. I was eager to buy his approval somehow.
“Professor, take a look at this. ”
“What?”
“A substance extracted from the blood of a patient in distress…… I've never seen this substance before. It doesn't look like the human body is composing itself. ”
“Drugs?"
Professor Kim Jae-hong thought, frowning. I have never heard of such a drug being developed.
“I've never done any medication. It would make sense to think of it as a resistant enzyme synthesized by the patient's immune system. ”
“But I've never seen anything like it. ”
“It could be a unique immune system with only a handful of patients. So, that's all you have to report? ”
“No, I've discovered a great deal. ”
“What?”
“We put cancer tissue from another patient in vitro and administered it, and surprisingly, the cancer tissue died. Normal cells were fine. ”
Professor Kim Jae-hong got up on his knees.
“That's it! How much more of that stuff? ”
“There are no more. I only extracted trace amounts from my blood... I was just mixing it up with the cancer tissue, just in case. ”
Kim Jae Hong's complexion darkened as well.
“Oh my……. It's going to be difficult.”
A week has passed since I was admitted to the hospital.
Han Seo-jin felt something out of the ordinary. Feeling better already, the medical staff has not ruled that there are still some cancer cells left.
After more than 90% vanished in three days, the remaining 10% remained the same for a week? It's strange...... Maybe the elixir has run out? ’
Seojin, who could not bear the boredom, decided to go home and change his patient's clothes. The nurse who was just coming in was surprised.
“Oh, man. Where are you going?”
“I'm going home for a while. ”
“No, no, no. I haven't heard you leave yet. ”
“I'm not discharging, I'm going away for a while. I have something to bring from home. ”
“Wait a minute, then. I'll pass it on to the doctor. ”
When Han Seo-jin said he was going out, the professor who first diagnosed him came running.
Professor, Kim Jae-hong urgently suspended him.
“This is not the time to be presumptuous. It's not all better. ”
“I'm not going home. I'm going home for a while. I need to take care of something. I'll be right back.”
“Huh, but…. ”
It was as if Han Seo-jin would never come back when he left the hospital, and Professor Kim Jae-hong repeatedly stopped him. However, in the end, he did not break his will, but raised his hands.
“Very well. You must return by this afternoon. I have the cure in front of me, but it's not all better yet. ”
“I understand.”
Han Seo-jin was only able to return home after sprinkling everything.
After returning after ten days, the studio room was intact before leaving. Elixir is still on her desk.
“Did you run out of medicine? I don't know what the proper capacity is……. ”
Han Seo-jin looked at the blue sapphire elixir for a moment, then opened the lid and followed the cup. It was about a third of what I had last time.
The warm energy consumed my esophagus.
‘ ……? ’
Seojin felt strange and stopped.
‘It looks different from before.... ’
When I drank the elixir before, I felt like I had a hot energy in my stomach. It was not painful, it felt like it was heating up my body with a pleasant heat.
But now I don't have that feeling at all.
“…… No way. ”
Seojin's face became stiff. He leaves the elixir at his desk and leaves the studio again.
Then I went to the second diagnosed hospital. The doctor recognized him and welcomed him.
“I first heard about it at the hospital, and the cancer had improved a lot. That's why I want a detailed checkup. ”
“Improvement? That's a relief. All right, let's run some tests. ”
The doctor understood that it was‘ a little better ’, and proceeded with a rather unorthodox examination. As the test proceeded, his face became stiff.
After a few hours of tests, the doctor said as if he couldn't believe it.
“It's a miracle. The cancer is cured. No, how is this possible...? ”
“Heal?”
“Yes, there's no evidence of cancer cells at all. Totally cleaned up. What the hell kind of treatment did you get? ”
Decision of Cure.
Han Seo-jin's eyes, reminiscent of Professor Kim Jae-hong's urgent expression, sat cold.
