Near nine o'clock on Tuesday morning, Lin Jie arrived at the examination room of Donghua Hospital, only to find that everyone was already gathered there, waiting just for him.
Among those present were Chen Shi, Tao Taqing, Yao Siyuan, and Song Licheng from the research team; the examination subject Wang Jinglan; Wang Jinglan's parents, Mr. Fu, Fu Hechang, Fu Xiuyuan, and Fu Wenzhu, along with Zhuang Shilei, who was wearing a half-mask.
Lin Jie immediately expressed his apologies, "I'm sorry to have kept you all waiting!"
"No need to apologize, it's not even nine yet. We came early," Mr. Fu chuckled, "We were too excited and couldn't wait to rush over!"
Chen Shi joked, "The most important person always shows up last! Lin Jie, shall we begin?"
Lin Jie approached Wang Jinglan, having her lie flat on the examination bed.
