[Your father was unable to find a cure. Yōhei Nakajima had already spent the first half of his life seeking out the best doctors for his daughter, but he failed. Neither you nor the father could reverse this outcome.]
[Your father managed to contact a professor from the Faculty of Medicine at Misaki University. You accompanied Reina Nakajima to the affiliated hospital of Misaki University’s medical school for an examination.]
[The doctor in charge of the examination was a vice director. She predicted that, without surgery, Reina Nakajima would have only five years left to live, with the final year spent weakly confined amidst a host of medical devices. If she underwent surgery, the operation should ideally occur within the next three years. Given Reina Nakajima’s current physical condition, the chances of success were slim. If successful, she could live for another decade or so, but another surgery would be required at that time.]
[This type of low-success-rate, niche surgery was one that most doctors and hospitals were unwilling to perform. It was only due to Yōhei Nakajima’s connections with a vice director at Chigusa University Hospital that they had initially agreed to take on the procedure.]
[Now, thanks to your father’s influence, Misaki University Hospital is also willing to perform the surgery.]
[Although Chigusa University Hospital is not as renowned overall as Misaki University Hospital, the doctor handling this particular type of surgery is a leading expert in the field, on par with the doctors at Misaki University Hospital. This is why you haven’t yet considered transferring Reina Nakajima to another hospital.]
[You need to decide now. If you choose Misaki University Hospital, Reina Nakajima must immediately transfer there so that the attending physician can familiarize themselves with her condition and prepare a surgical plan.]
[Faced with this situation, you must choose...]
[1. Opt for Misaki University Hospital and proceed with the surgery at the optimal time.]
[2. Abandon the surgery and pursue conservative treatment.]
[3. Begin with conservative treatment and resort to surgery only when Reina Nakajima’s body can no longer hold out.]
[4. Free simulation.]
The options were presented.
Yuuki Minami shook off his fatigue and carefully read through the three choices.
The option to have surgery at Chigusa University Hospital wasn’t included—unsurprising, as in the previous life simulation, Reina Nakajima’s surgery at Chigusa University Hospital had failed.
He examined the first option. Misaki University Hospital was the best hospital in Japan, but would choosing it improve the chances of a successful surgery? Probably not. The simulation text had already explained that Misaki University Hospital held no clear advantage for this procedure.
Then he looked at the second option. If he gave up on the surgery, Reina Nakajima would have five years left to live. In the previous simulation, she had passed away two years later. Giving up the surgery would grant her an extra three years.
If there was a door leading to happiness among the three choices, it had to be the option of proceeding with the surgery. Options 2 and 3 would inevitably lead to the girl’s death.
And if Option 1 also failed? Then it would prove that this particular route was incorrect, and he would need to try another path.
The simulation text began to advance, and he watched with unease.
[You decided to proceed with the surgery at Misaki University Hospital. Reina Nakajima and Yōhei Nakajima agreed with your choice. Reina Nakajima moved from the Chigusa University Hospital rehabilitation ward to a room at Misaki University Hospital.]
[The day before the transfer, you brought gifts to the nurses at the rehabilitation ward to thank them for their care.]
[The nurses were reluctant to see you go. Even after you moved her to Misaki University Hospital, they often came to visit her.]
[You were in charge of handling the transfer. After your father pulled the necessary strings, he stepped aside, showing little concern for your future. He didn’t hold much hope for what lay ahead.]
[Yōhei Nakajima was initially worried that his daughter might struggle to adjust to an unfamiliar place. But when he saw her enter the expensive private ward, his worries shifted in another direction.]
[The private ward offered meticulous care and flexible policies, designed entirely to serve the needs of patients and their families. There were no restrictions on visiting hours, and if a patient wanted to go home, a small medical team could even accompany them.]
[What now concerned Yōhei Nakajima was his wallet.]
[You were the one paying for Reina Nakajima’s hospital stay. You kept it quiet, and no one except the people at your firm knew where you had managed to get such a large sum of money.]
[At the payment counter, Yōhei Nakajima inquired about the costs and found that the majority of the hospital fees had already been covered for three years. He assumed it was thanks to your father’s help and felt grateful. When your father visited Reina Nakajima and saw the luxurious ward, he thought the Nakajima family was sparing no expense to care for their daughter and felt deeply moved.]
[Amid their mutual misunderstandings, you successfully concealed the truth about your finances.]
[The surgery was scheduled for the autumn of the year after next.]
