Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

The needles Luca used were all specially made on the Island of Despair.
She did not bring too many needles with her, and the effects of the needles were not significant. Hence, she had Dr. Wood use
the needles from the hospital instead.
Dr. Wood sanitized his hands, then put on sterile gloves.
Tyrone knew that this time, it would be Dr. Wood who would take over the treatment. From the previous treatment, he also got to
know through their conversation that Luca's method of dry needling was different from the standard.
Hence, it would be Dr. Wood's first time adopting the method.
He was a little scared.
"Doctor, Please take it slow. I'm scared of pain..." said Tyrone while closing his eyes.
"Don't worry. I've practiced the method many times, so it won't go wrong. Besides, Dr. Craw is here to supervise. Don't worry." Dr.
Wood comforted him. He had watched the video many times and even tried it hands-on as well. He had some confidence.
"Let's get started." Luca did not speak much to them and ordered Dr. Wood to carry on.
Dr. Wood nodded and followed how Luca had done it last time. He started pricking the needles into the acupoints.
Luca was observing from the side and would occasionally whisper to remind him if she wanted Dr. Wood to go a little higher.
After half an hour, all the needles had been pricked into the acupoints. Once they were taken out, Tyrone was ready to exercise.
Luca asked, "How did it feel this time?"
"I feel much better, but I can't say what it feels like exactly. I just think it was done properly..” Tyrone said slowly and made a
gesture of opening up his palms.
Luca took note of this, and it seemed like the treatment was done really well. This could prove that Dr. Wood's treatment was
starting to take effect.
Even Dr. Lance also noticed it and softly let out a breath of relief. "Thank God, it's effective."
Luca noticed that Dr. Wood was sweating. He said, "You're too nervous."

It was not hot in the hospital, so for him to be this sweaty showed that he was very anxious while carrying out the treatment.
"This is my very first time trying this new dry needling method on a patient, so I was very nervous," said Dr. Wood with a smile.
Previously, he had only practiced the method on objects and was not sure whether he did it correctly. He was clueless.
After Luca gave him some pointers, he became aware of his mistakes.
"After this session, you'll have enough experience for the next session," Luca said. She looked at the time and two hours had
already passed. In another two hours, the sky would start to turn dark...
She said, "If there's nothing else, I shall take my leave."
Initially, Dr. Wood had some questions to ask, but it seemed that Luca was in a hurry. Hence, he nodded and thought he would
just ask her the next time.
Luca walked out of the ward.
Nina got up and asked, "How did it go?"
"It seems that the effects this time are quite good. His joint movement is much smoother now. You guys may enter," Luca said
while looking at Mrs. Hugh.
The moment Mrs. Hugh heard that the treatment was effective, she revealed a smile and entered the ward.
Nina also let out a breath of relief. "Thank God."
"Yes, everything's alright. All he needs to do right now is be compliant with the treatment," Luca comforted her. As soon as she
was done talking, her phone vibrated.
She picked it up and looked at it. It was a message from Amur.
Luca's heart skipped a beat. Amur's message might perhaps be a piece of good news. Her fingers trembled as she clicked into
the message.
Amur sent her a photo, and there were three words in the message: [Finally found it.]
She clicked into the report and looked at the report that matched up. She was excited, and her fingers started to tremble.

Nina noticed her fingers trembling and asked curiously, "What's the matter, Luca?"
"Nothing. I have something on, so I'll leave first," said Luca.
Nina nodded and said in a concerned tone, "Please let me know if there's anything. Also, you've been looking rather pale lately.
Remember to take good care of yourself."
"Got it," Luca said and headed into the elevator.
She did not speak any more to Nina. What mattered the most at that moment was the report.
Luca came to the car park and found Luke's car. She immediately drove to the research lab.
After an hour, she arrived at the research lab. She rushed upstairs, pushed the door open, and saw Amur.
"Where's the report? Let me see," Luca asked Amur for the report.
Amur handed the report to her.
"It matches. This is the fungus." Luca looked at the report and was emotional. She finally found it.
Luca had found the right fungus. She found the sample, then put it into the machine once more to analyze it again.
Amur saw her actions and asked while feeling puzzled, "You want to analyze it again?"
"To be on the safe side,” Luca said. Shanks had given her this fungus sample, and it was very special. “This fungus is very
special, so I have to test it again.”
"The survival criteria for this particular type of fungus are very demanding. They can only survive in temperatures less than
negative ten degrees Celsius. If they're left in warmer temperatures for a very long time, it'll be hard for them to survive. No
matter how cold A City is, the temperature here won't be below negative ten degrees Celsius. There are rarely any days with a
temperature less than negative ten degrees Celsius. Abel would've only been able to use the freezing equipment to bring this
fungus here from the Island of Despair. He put in so much effort to bring this here just to use it on me?" Luca touched her chin.
'This fungus takes so much effort to keep alive, yet he went through all the trouble.
'With that being said, Abel must have a designated place to store this fungus. Perhaps it might be a cool store.'

Amur voiced out, "You said that it's hard to keep this fungus alive, but why do you have it?"
"Shanks gave it to me," Luca said. "But it's in its dormant state. This is just a sample. I didn't think that one day, I'd put it into the
machine to analyze it."
Before she left the Island of Despair, Shanks gave her a box and said the items inside might be useful one day.
Inside that box contained all sorts of samples of fungi.
She did not expect it to really be useful...
Luca smiled coldly. Indeed, Shanks knew Abel well. At the same time, he did not wish to let her die.
After an hour, the report was out once again.
Luca looked at it, and indeed, it was a match.
Abel had drugged her with something that was extracted from this fungus.
"What should we do now?" Amur looked at the report that was a match and asked.
"This fungus is a little special. Ordinary antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs won't have any effect on it. I have to make my
own medication," Luca said and was feeling grateful to Shanks deep within her.
He had also specifically taught her what to do to cure one of the effects of this weird fungus.
At that moment, she had thought to herself, 'The criteria of survival for this fungus is very harsh, so it won't have the chance to
be used to harm others.' Hence, she did not really pay much attention to him when he was explaining it to her.
"What do you need? I'll go prepare the things." As Amur was speaking, he put on his cost and was ready to head outside to buy
her the items.
Luca was not anxious since she already found the right fungus. She said, "There's something that I need that must be attained in
the hospital. The rest can be purchased at the pharmacy. How about this? You go back first. I can settle it myself."
"You have to head over to the hospital to settle it? Are you sure you can deal with it?" Amur said.
"Yes. I know the doctors in the hospital," said Luca. She would need Johann's help to get Amphotericin B.
