Chapter 34: You Won’t Find Peace Even in Death

Outside a hospital ward, a doctor reported to Hanson dutifully, "Master Hanson, we're seeing a continuous loss of function in Miss. Nielsen's liver cells.

The doctor left after saying that.

Hanson stood rooted to the spot with a grave expression on his face.

Hanson asked him as he took in Howard's grim expression, "Are you also of the opinion that the situation seems rather dire?"
