21st Century Necromancer

Although Yu Chen and his wife were each making their own efforts to have a child, this was not an issue that could be resolved overnight, nor would results be forthcoming immediately.

While they were brainstorming various ways to have a child, Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi still had to go about their daily work and lives.

Because another attack had occurred, the hospital's security level was raised once again. Protests that could previously take place in front of the hospital were now completely prohibited, and the police even set up blockades a street away, while inside the hospital, security checks were required right from the entrance.

The hospital had not foreseen such troubles when the research began, but by now, neither the director nor the board of directors could possibly allow the project to be canceled.

Not to mention the various honors and benefits that would come with the success of the project, just the fact that Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi had once been invited by the Prime Minister to the Prime Minister's Official Residence was enough for people to weigh their status seriously.

So even though the trouble was significant, the hospital had no choice but to let Hiromi Jounouchi complete the trial.

As for Yu Chen, the research on the broad-spectrum anti-cancer drug was not far from officially hitting the market, and many pharmaceutical companies had clearly set their sights on this lucrative opportunity.

However, this did not greatly affect Yu Chen, as he had long handed over all matters to Kyuuzai Ryousen and his family's Kyuuzai Pharmaceuticals to deal with. With Kazama Pharmaceuticals and Shunten-do also sharing the profits, Yu Chen was not worried about his research being impacted.

Moreover, for a demigod, the benefits brought by these worldly affairs were no longer of importance to him. What truly mattered was the faith that his research, once it gained global acclaim, would bring him.

Therefore, although many things demanded his attention, Yu Chen still methodically went about his work without being affected by these issues.

This also gave Yu Chen some time outside of work to ponder how he should handle the matter between Inomata Naoki and Minami.

Yu Chen had already warned his boss, who in turn probably advised Minami, but since the Matchmaking God said that the Red String of Fate between them was not greatly affected, ending this relationship had to start from Inomata Naoki's side.

Introducing a girlfriend to Inomata Naoki and getting him to quickly marry and settle down was undoubtedly the most appropriate method. However, Yu Chen was not very familiar with the female doctors in the hospital and couldn't think of a suitable candidate at the moment.

Ayajichi Shoubu from Neurosurgery was certainly a good match, but having returned from studies in the United States, she was likely averse to such matchmaking; his own secretary, Shirai Reina, might be suitable, but Yu Chen had no intention of introducing her to Inomata Naoki.

As for the reason, this was actually a common problem Yu Chen faced in trying to find a match for Inomata Naoki—how many girls from Tokyo would be willing to marry and move to a place as far away as Kumamoto?

While he was thinking about these things, Shirai Reina suddenly knocked on the door of his office and said to Yu Chen, "Professor, Professor Kube is on the phone and would like you to visit his office."

"Did Professor Kube mention what it's about?" Yu Chen put down the pen in his hand and asked Shirai Reina.

However, Rena Shirai shook her head, indicating she didn't know either. "Professor Kube didn't say. He just asked you to stop by."

"Alright, I got it." Yu Chen nodded slightly, stood up from his seat, and was ready to leave the office when a spontaneous thought struck him, and he asked Rena Shirai, "Rena, do you know any single female friends?"

"If you're talking about single women, I know quite a few. What type of person are you referring to, Professor?" Rena Shirai's eyes flickered when she heard Yu Chen ask this, trying to guess what he meant.

"Nothing much, just remembered I have a classmate who's still single, and I was thinking of introducing a girlfriend to him," Yu Chen explained simply to avoid any misunderstanding from Rena Shirai. "He was my classmate at the University of Tokyo. However, he had health issues back then and didn't stay in Tokyo to practice medicine but returned to his hometown to take over his family's ranch in Kumamoto.

When he came to my wedding, I found out he was still single, so I was thinking of introducing him to a girlfriend. That's why I'm asking if you know any single women. If there's a suitable candidate, I'd like to introduce them."

"I see, I'll help you inquire about it, then," Rena Shirai responded after hearing Yu Chen's explanation, and after thinking for a moment, she nodded in agreement, though she didn't provide a definite answer.

Yu Chen didn't mind, and after smiling at Rena Shirai, he left the office.

When he arrived at Professor Kube's office and pushed the door open, Yu Chen found that aside from Professor Kube, there was another woman in a white lab coat, a very beautiful female doctor.

"Yu Chen, senior brother!" Upon seeing Yu Chen entering, the female doctor immediately stood up from the sofa, greeted him with a cheerful expression, and revealed a very cute smile on her tender oval face.

Yu Chen was taken aback, trying to recall who this female doctor was, and then he asked as if he was still unsure, "Who are you?"

"Senior brother, you don't remember me? I'm Kaori! Your dearest junior sister, Kohinata Kaori!" The female doctor expressed her dissatisfaction that Yu Chen had forgotten her name, pouting unhappily and complaining to Yu Chen.

Yu Chen suddenly laughed, reached out to her head, and ruffled her black hair into a messy state. "How can I not recognize you, Kaori! But how come you are here? Didn't you say you were going to the United Kingdom for further studies?"

"I've told you so many times not to mess up someone's hair!" Kohinata Kaori swatted Yu Chen's hand away in annoyance but smiled happily anyway, "Of course, I came back from further studies! Now I'm also a doctor at the hospital. Senior brother Yu Chen, I'll be counting on you a lot in the future!"

After speaking, Kohinata Kaori even bowed respectfully to Yu Chen.

Seeing Kohinata Kaori and Yu Chen fooling around, Professor Kube did not mind; after all, both of them were his students who enjoyed playing pranks during their school days. Now that his two proud disciples had returned to his wing, Professor Kube was naturally very happy. "Mr. Yu Chen, starting today, Kaori will be a doctor in our hospital's General Surgery department. You are already familiar with each other, so take good care of her. She's just returned from the United Kingdom and might not be familiar with domestic matters. As her senior, help her out a bit."

"Got it, Professor," Yu Chen replied, looking at Kohinata Kaori and smiling at her.
