Chapter 281: Surgery Complete
"Ahem... Let's do a check-up first," Nagato said, blushing from Nonō's teasing and quickly changing the subject.
"You're no fun, not fun at all," Nonō said, pretending to be dissatisfied. She glanced down at herself, wondering what could possibly be the issue.
"Please take her blood and bring her to Operating Room 5 if there are no problems," Nagato instructed, leading Nonō to the blood-drawing station.
"Yes, Master Nagato," the young nurse replied. Although Nagato didn't know her name, the nurse clearly knew him.
"I'll go get everything ready. See you later," Nagato said before hurrying off, still flustered by Nonō's joke.
"You're here for myopia surgery, right?" the young nurse asked while placing a pressure bandage on Nonō's arm and beginning to draw blood.
"Yes," Nonō confirmed with a nod, assuming it was just casual chatter.
"Then you're in luck. You probably don't know, but this myopia surgery was developed by Master Nagato," the nurse said cheerfully. "He rarely performs the surgery himself now."
The nurse's tone carried genuine admiration, as though she was happy for Nonō. After all, Nagato, the surgery's developer, had the deepest understanding of the procedure and the best technique.
"Really? Then I'm really lucky," Nonō said softly, a warm feeling welling up inside her. She realized just how much Nagato had done for her. Calling her only after the surgery had been perfected must have taken considerable effort and care.
"Okay, just wait a moment. If everything is fine, I'll take you to the operating room," the nurse said, leaving with the blood sample.
