Chapter 126 - Richard’s Research.

Luna was innocently sitting on her hospital bed while stuffing the tiny pieces of chocolate pieces on her tiny mouth. She was innocently fidgeting her toes, while her somewhat pale and sickly face had a look of satisfaction and happiness.

Maria was looking at the sight with a small smile and was regretful of not having her camera with her because Luna looked like a cute rabbit.

Isaac was rhythmically tapping the armrest with his index finger while looking at Luna with a small smile.

He also took a few glances at the machine, which had the line going up and down in a steady manner.

He didn't completely know what was its purpose because there was already a machine, which tells Luna's life signals, but he had a hunch that it was crucial for Luna's survival.

''I-Isaac, do you want some?'' Luna asked while holding a piece of chocolate on her palm.

Isaac waved his hand and replied, ''I bought it for you; it's yours.''

Luna smiled softly and nodded, but then she covered the chocolate bar on its wrappers and offered it to Maria, ''Maria, can you take this to a refrigerator? I will finish it later.''

Maria nodded and took the chocolate bar, but she also leaned closer to Luna's ear and whispered, ''You were hiding your boyfriend from your big sisters, I am hurt, Luna~''

''He is my friend, go away, dummy.'' Luna pushed Maria gently away with a hue of pink coloring her cheeks.

Maria giggled and left the hospital room with her giggle still ringing on Luna's ears.

''Hmph.'' Luna humped and turned her gaze once again towards Isaac.

Isaac also locked gazes with her, and they stayed quiet for some time longer, until Luna decided to ask, ''I-I forgot to add you as my friend... D-Do you want to add me as a friend?'' She asked while shyly twirling her hair, waiting for the answer with anticipation.

''Ah, yes.'' Isaac went through his pockets and soon found what he was looking for. He took a piece of paper from the pocket and a pencil.

''Tell me your VR Helmet ID, I will add you through that.''

''A-Ah, yes!'' Luna said with excitement, ''It's LunaSnowflower00.''

''LunaSnowflower00...'' Isaac wrote the name and nodded after he finished writing it down.

''I will be waiting for your friend request!'' Luna shouted with a sweet smile, with her eyes showing the excitement.

Isaac put the paper gently in his pocket and asked, ''Snowflower... Is that perhaps... Your surname?'' He asked because he had heard that name somewhere before.

''Oh, oops.'' Luna giggled and tapped her fingers together, ''It is, my full name is Luna Moon Snowflower.''

Isaac put his hand forwards for a handshake and said, ''Isaac Vayne Whitelock.''

Luna grabbed the hand and shyly smiled while feeling the familiar warmth of Isaac's hand, which she remembered from their time on the mysterious island.

''I swear I have heard your surname somewhere before; I just can't remember where.'' Isaac rubbed his forehead, trying to get his brains to work, but no matter how hard he tried to remember, he couldn't.

''Your family owns Whitelock Company, right?'' Luna asked.

Isaac nodded, ''It is my father's.''

Luna nodded with admiration, ''I have heard great things about your family.''

Isaac nodded and glanced at the clock; surprisingly, he had spent over half an hour already, more than he expected.

He grabbed his phone from the pocket and glanced at the messages, and most of them were from Michael, who was asking how is it going.

He quickly replied and stuffed the phone back into his pocket.

Looking at Luna's innocent and cheerful face, he didn't really want to leave, but he had other things to do.

''Luna, I need to visit Richard, so I apologize for ending this meeting so short.'' He said with an apologetic smile.

''Oh...'' Luna instantly looked downcast, but then she had an idea, ''C-Can I come with you?''

''Are you sure you are allowed?'' Isaac looked at the machines, and the wires stuck on her limbs.

Luna smiled and stood up, ''I-I sometimes am allowed to go for walks.'' She grabbed the machine, and surprisingly it had wheels, which allowed her to move without any problems, while the machine followed behind her.

Her legs slightly shook, but she managed to keep her posture and slowly started walking towards Isaac.

Isaac was ready to catch her if she was going to fall, but she managed to walk perfectly without any hiccups, even though her legs were shaking in a dangerous manner.

''Let's go!'' She said cheerfully.

Isaac smiled and helped her to leave the hospital room. He remembered that Richard's office wasn't too far, only at the end of the corridor.

But, looking at the corridor, it resembled a lot of the abandoned hospital, which was conquered by Baba Yaga.

Memories of her disgusting face surfaced into his mind, but he pushed those thoughts away and continued without fear while Luna followed behind in a slow manner.

Reaching the end of the corridor, a door with nametag [Chief Doctor Richard] was in front of him.

*Knock* *Knock*

Isaac knocked a couple of times and said, ''Doctor Richard, are you there?''

After he spoke, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps and shuffling of papers.

Sometime later, the door opened, and a handsome and gentle-looking man appeared.

Richard was surprised to see Isaac and even more surprised to see Luna following behind Isaac.

''Isaac, Luna? What are you two doing here and Luna. you should be resting.'' Richard said sternly, but there was obvious worry in his eyes while looking at her pale face and shaky legs.

He glanced at the machine and heaved a relief after seeing a rhythmic pattern of the lines.

''I have something to discuss with you, and Luna wanted to come as well; I hope it isn't a bother,'' Isaac said and was prepared to leave if Richard was busy.

''Oh.'' Richard looked around his somewhat messy office, but he nodded and said, ''Come in.''

Isaac nodded with gratitude and entered the office, with Luna following closely behind.

The first thing he saw was stacks of papers littered around the office, but then he saw the scribbles on the walls.

One thing that he saw caused his face to show his shock.

[Fountain of Life (???): Chances to cure WI is unknown - Must find it!]

It was written on the wall in a color of golden color like Richard made sure to not forget it no matter what!
