Chapter 343 Digital Life (Including System Dialogue)
During the last book signing trip to Qilu Land, Lin Qingshan and Wang Renfei left each other's contact information, including mobile phone numbers.
But as young people in the new era, smartphones have become popular. Of course, daily communication will be through various communication software such as Penguin and Weixin.
Call directly...
Lin Qingshan noticed something was wrong, and then he answered the phone.
"Is it...Mr. Lin?"
Sure enough, what came on the phone was not Wang Renfei's voice, but his mother's.
That great mother had an obvious tremor in her voice at this moment.
Lin Qingshan seemed to realize something, stood up and came outside the balcony.
Everyone who was enjoying the table of delicious food cooked by Lin Qingshan saw Lin Qingshan's expression and probably knew that he was having a serious conversation with someone very important.
So they all couldn't help but lower their voices.
"Yes, aunt, I am Lin Qingshan, what's wrong with A Fei?"
Lin Qingshan asked directly.
During this period, he has also made a lot of efforts. For example, as mentioned before, he has been refreshing the system mall with [Future Market (Master)], hoping to refresh drugs or treatments that can treat DMD congenital genetic diseases like Wang Renfei. .
However, I don’t know whether it was due to his lack of luck or because the disease would remain incurable for the next forty years.
He has yet to come up with a system product that can treat the congenital genetic disease and treatment method of DMD.
In addition, he actively relied on Dabolin Pinzhang's connections as the CEO of a medical device company to find advanced medical experimental teams at home and abroad.
Although Wang Renfei’s mother said that she had already contacted all the top hospitals in the country and even those abroad.
But there is no way to treat the congenital genetic disease of DMD.
But what if some medical research teams have developed some cutting-edge medical technologies that have good therapeutic effects on the congenital genetic disease DMD, but they have not yet been announced to the public and are still in the experimental stage?
However...fantasy is beautiful, but reality is cruel.
No, at least judging from Lin Pinzhang's use of his own contacts, there are medical teams in the Republic that are researching this topic, but they have not made any good progress.
This is also normal.
Nine out of ten things in life are unsatisfactory, and many common terminal diseases cannot be overcome by so many medical teams despite their attempts.
As for those rare diseases, unless some medical team is very lucky and accidentally discovers or synthesizes one of the hundreds of millions of chemical compounds that happens to have a good therapeutic effect on a certain type of rare disease.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to make breakthroughs in these rare diseases.
After all, medical teams or pharmaceutical companies also have to make money. Even if the corresponding drugs are developed for rare diseases, they will not make much money.
Therefore, rare terminal diseases are even more difficult to treat.
"Niu Niu he..."
Wang Renfei's mother suddenly choked up and said, "I suddenly became ill at noon today. Fortunately, Mr. Lin, the pair of glasses you gave me detected a problem with Niu Niu's vital signs in time, and he called me in time."
"But when I arrived, it was still a little late. Niu Niu is currently in the ICU of the hospital, but the hospital said... it might be difficult to survive these few days."
Lin Qingshan was stunned for a moment, and his heart suddenly felt a little heavy. Is he about to lose a friend for the first time in this world?
"Niu Niu... he has been saying recently that if something happens to him, I hope he can tell you as soon as possible."
Wang Renfei's mother continued with a trembling voice, "He wanted to say thank you, Mr. Lin, for your care during this period, but it's a pity that he can't wait until the cyberpunk era arrives."
Wang Renfei has always been a loyal fan of "Edge Walker", which Lin Qingshan has always known.
Therefore, he has always encouraged Wang Renfei that as long as he works hard to survive, Wang Renfei's disease will be cured when the cyberpunk era arrives.
By then, with Wang Renfei's ability, he will definitely be able to become a qualified prosthetic doctor.
Wang Renfei was also greatly encouraged and always said that he would wait until that moment.
Lin Qingshan thought that as long as Wang Renfei persisted for a while, he would be saved when the drug that could treat his rare disease was flushed into his system.
but now……
Really can't wait any longer.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Lin, for taking care of Niu Niu..."
Finally, Wang Renfei's mother choked and hung up the phone.
Lin Qingshan took a deep breath, he still... couldn't accept such a thing.
What... isn't he the protagonist? Not a time traveler?
Why can't he solve such a thing?
"Qingshan...what's wrong?"
At this time, Gu Qianli came to the balcony with some worry and asked.
"Qianli...A Fei can't hold on any longer...No, there should be a way."
Lin Qingshan muttered.
Yes... there is still a way...
He also has a system!
"A Fei, is he dying?"
Gu Qianli was the only person who knew Wang Renfei like Lin Qingshan. She also knew Wang Renfei's situation, and she suddenly felt very heavy.
Lin Qingshan pinched his face, took a deep breath, and forced a smile.
"Today is Yuta's practice banquet. We can't affect Yuta's mood..."
He said to Gu Qianli, "Let's go... Qianli, let's just pretend nothing happened."
He didn't want to affect the mood of Akutami Yuta and others.
Negative emotions should not be transmitted to others.
After hearing this, Gu Qianli had no choice but to follow Lin Qingshan's words and return to the apartment with Lin Qingshan as if nothing had happened.
But everyone seemed to feel something, and the atmosphere was not so happy afterwards.
In response, Lin Qingshan said to Akutami Yuta apologetically at the end, "I'm sorry, Yuta made you not very happy today."
"It's okay, teacher, what happened?"
Akutami Yuta waved his hand indifferently, but still asked curiously.
"Nothing... A friend had an accident."
Lin Qingshan shook his head and said a little disappointed.
Akutami Yuta and others saw that Lin Qingshan, who was always optimistic and seemed to be carefree, was so disappointed, and probably realized that this accident... was serious.
But they didn't know what happened, and could only comfort Lin Qingshan as usual.
"Qingshan... How is A Fei now?"
Finally, after bidding farewell to the others, only Gu Qianli was left looking at Lin Qingshan and asked with some concern.
"Auntie said that he is still in the ICU for emergency treatment, but... there is no hope."
Lin Qingshan said a little dazedly.
"Are you going to see A Fei for the last time?"
Gu Qianli took a deep breath and said firmly, "I can go with you..."
"I'll think about it... I may have a way."
Lin Qingshan bit his lip and said with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
However, in Gu Qianli's eyes, what else can be done if the hospital has declared so?
Although... Qingshan is a genius, not only in comics, he is also a genius with a double doctorate.
But Qingshan's doctorate is not in medicine...
"You... Qingshan, you must tell me if there is anything, I will always be with you."
Gu Qianli wanted to say something, but soon she changed her tone and said firmly.
"Okay, I will, Qianli."
Lin Qingshan's heart suddenly warmed up and said to Gu Qianli.
Then Gu Qianli also returned to his apartment.
After seeing everyone off, Lin Qingshan could finally call out the system.
"System Lao Deng."
He sat on the sofa and shouted.
Suddenly, the virtual page of the system appeared again.
The popularity of "Parasyte" is not higher than "Chainsaw Man", so the progress of the task is very slow, but now his total points have reached 5 million.
Before, it was already possible to exchange for the cheapest predictive ability [Prophet Fantasy (Master)].
[Prophet Fantasy (Master)], with 3 million points, has the ability to get the best solution to the current problem in the dream every other day.
But dreams are generally incomplete, and you may not be able to remember everything that happened in the dream after waking up.
However, this ability can at least let you remember 30% of the dream.
Therefore, the ability of [Prophet Fantasy (Master)] has a lot of uncertainty, and when you get the complete and best method, you have to use this method to realize it in reality later.
Wang Renfei may not be able to hold on until then.
But... this is also a helpless solution.
However, Lin Qingshan still had a glimmer of hope, that is... the omnipotent system Lao Deng!
"System Lao Deng... Really, is there any way to solve the DMD congenital genetic disease?"
Lin Qingshan asked hurriedly.
"... This genetic disease cannot be cured in the next fifty years with the current technological level of this world."
The system replied coldly.
Lin Qingshan's heart suddenly turned cold. No wonder [Future Market (Master)] has not refreshed an item that can cure this disease after refreshing the mall for so long.
"Then... I exchanged for the prophet's dream, can I find a way to save Ah Fei?"
He asked again with a glimmer of hope.
"... Yes."
The system actually replied, "It just takes time. The prophet's dream is not an omnipotent ability in reality. A solution can be obtained, but it may be limited by the current technology of the world and cannot be realized."
Lin Qingshan's originally ecstatic heart fell again with some heaviness.
But... no matter what, there is a way, right?
"Exchange for [Prophet Fantasy (Master)]."
Lin Qingshan took a deep breath, and then said, "Is it not available in the mall? Then let me draw and synthesize it as before. I have a lot of abilities now. Tell me a synthesis plan that can synthesize the relevant upgrade routes stably."
System Lao Deng immediately followed his request and really gave a synthesis route like the previous synthesis of [Game Creator (Master)].
It's just that you still have to draw two related mystic abilities, which are two fixed fusion materials, to fuse
[Mystic Scepter (Diamond)] + [Innate Intuition (Diamond)] + [King of War (Diamond)] The three were synthesized and then strengthened to [Prophet Fantasy (Master)].
It just cost him three million points to strengthen this rare ability, but fortunately the system Lao Deng didn't play a trick on him, and the strengthening failed directly.
Soon, Lin Qingshan entered the dream that night.
That night, he seemed to have come to another parallel world. In that world, technology had developed to the point where it flew out of the galaxy and became a third-level civilization, just like in science fiction.
And he was a genetic doctor in that civilization.
The technology there did have a way to solve the so-called DMD congenital genetic disease, and it was very easy.
All you need to do is take medicine...genetic medicine, long-term use can change the disease-causing genes in the body.
After Lin Qingshan woke up, he really remembered the synthesis method of this genetic medicine in the dream, although it was only 30%.
But...
"It's too late! No, Ah Fei doesn't need drugs to treat genetic diseases now."
Lin Qingshan remembered it and said with some annoyance, "He should be suffering from whole body organ failure due to heart failure. DMD congenital genetic disease has been cured, but how to solve organ failure?"
He was also confused. For Wang Renfei, who is now in the ICU, the biggest life hazard is multiple organ failure.
And how to solve organ failure?
Even replacing organs is too late.
There are not so many compatible organs.
Unless... it is a mechanical prosthesis.
But drugs are easy to synthesize, but how can mechanical prostheses be synthesized without powerful industrial machinery?
"System Lao Deng!"
Lin Qingshan called out the system again, saying, "Is there any other way to treat organ failure?"
"...Mechanical prostheses."
Sure enough, the system gave such an answer.
"How is this possible..."
Lin Qingshan was numb and said, "Other methods!"
"...The host should know about digital life."
System Lao Deng suddenly said, "Among the items the host currently has, there is a digital life chip, which is the best treatment method at present."
"Digital life?"
Lin Qingshan suddenly remembered that...digital life chip he bought just for fun.
He quickly returned to his room and found the special digital life chip on his display cabinet.
But...
Did digital life really save Wang Renfei?
Lin Qingshan was very hesitant...but is there any other way now?
If it is possible...it would be better to give this choice to Wang Renfei himself...
Or...let Wang Renfei's mother decide!
"How to use this chip?"
Lin Qingshan asked anxiously.
Now that the decision has been made, you must first familiarize yourself with the usage.
"The digital life chip has a relevant manual, please check it yourself."
The system replied immediately.
Lin Qingshan then went to find the manual that came with the chip before, but...
"You actually have to download the relevant software! Why can't this software be downloaded?"
Lin Qingshan said, annoyed.
"Then please develop the relevant software yourself."
The system said immediately.
"Develop it yourself?"
Lin Qingshan took a deep breath. Yes, he has the superb programming ability contained in [Prophet Fantasy (Master)] and [Game Creator (Master)], so he can also develop it himself.
But... even if he has this ability, he still needs hardware conditions!
You can't just use your home computer to make a software related to the future black technology!
"Oh, right... there is someone who can help!"
Lin Qingshan suddenly remembered something.
Then he returned to his room again, turned over the junk box that usually contained countless sundries, and then he searched and searched... searched and searched...
"Found it!"
Lin Qingshan picked up a business card and said in surprise.
