"What illness does he have?"

"Here are his medical records." Caprice passed the prisoner's medical records to Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao scanned the records. Diabetes, high blood pressure, thrombus. These are all common elderly diseases.

"I can't treat these diseases fully. I can only relieve his condition during an episode. He needs more comprehensive treatment and rehabilitation."

"I need you to ensure that he won't have an episode during his next check-up."

"What?"

"I want you to ensure that he won't be eligible for medical release," Caprice said.

"Why? From his medical records, he's indeed eligible."

"Do you know why he's here?"

"I'm a doctor. I don't need to know such things."
