And thank God no one stops me all the way to the ward.<\/p>\n<p>Soon after, we arrive at a VIP ward.<\/p>\n<p>Outside the door, two sturdy special forces soldiers are guarding.<\/p>\n<p>Each holds a gun in their hands.<\/p>\n<p>To avoid being spotted, I lower my head.<\/p>\n<p>Standing at the door, I can&#8217;t lift my hand.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m nervous.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve never been that nervous in my life.<\/p>\n<p>The doctor looks at me and pushes the door open.<\/p>\n<p>I raise my head and look inside.<\/p>\n<p>In an instant, tears flood out.<\/p>\n<p>It is tear of joy.<\/p>\n<p>Frances is lying on the bed, his eyes tightly closed, and he is intubated with pipes connected to the ventilator.<\/p>\n<p>It pains my heart to see him like this.<\/p>\n<p>But at the very least, he is still alive, isn&#8217;t he?<\/p>\n<p>The visualized heartbeat explains everything.<\/p>\n<p>How I wish I could rush to him right now, but I can&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>Soldiers are guarding the door.

You can&#8217;t close the door.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After a while, I tilt my head and look at the doctor, saying, &#8220;What&#8217;s wrong with him? Why is he lying here? How long has he been like this? When will he wake up? Or will he wake up?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The doctor is overwhelmed by my questions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You asked so many questions at once, which one do you want me to answer first?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know.<\/p>\n<p>Because I want to know everything.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Tell me everything you know.&#8221; I look at him eagerly and ask.<\/p>\n<p>The doctor smiles and walks over to explain, &#8220;He overdosed, and the drugs paralyze his brain.
