Having resolved the troubles of his disciple, Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi returned to the hospital to continue their work.
"Professor, you're back!" At the office doorway, the junior secretary Shirai Reina greeted Yu Chen when she saw him return to work.
"Good morning, Rena," Yu Chen also greeted Shirai Reina, while Hiromi Jounouchi, who ca with him, handed a small paper bag to Shirai Reina, "This is a little gift, we bought it in Paris, the most authentic macarons."
"Thank you, Professor Jounouchi!" Shirai Reina quickly took the paper bag, thanking Hiromi Jounouchi.
Hiromi Jounouchi just smiled sweetly, nodded to Yu Chen and said, "Well, I'm off to work," then turned and walked into her own office across the way.
Seeing this, Yu Chen also entered his own office, changed into his white coat, and then asked Shirai Reina, "Rena, has anything happened during my absence from the hospital?"
"Yes, Professor," Shirai Reina quickly presented the organized docunts and materials to Yu Chen, "These docunts are from the hospital and need to be reviewed by you. And this part requires your signature. I've already arranged them in order, you just need to sign them.
Additionally, this list includes the phone calls and visitors that ca for you while you were away. I've recorded them all and kept their contact information, so you can review it."
Seeing that Shirai Reina had organized all the work thodically, Yu Chen couldn't help but raise an eyebrow approvingly, "You've done a great job, you can leave the docunts here, and co to collect them after I've finished signing."
Shirai Reina nodded and then turned to leave Yu Chen's office.
Yu Chen then picked up the docunts on the desk and began to go through them one by one, dealing with the work that had piled up during his absence.
Fortunately, the backlog wasn't extensive, and since Shirai Reina had organized everything for him, Yu Chen managed to get through it quickly. Not even half the morning had passed, and he had already finished dealing with all the accumulated tasks and signed all the necessary docunts.
Just as he was about to call Shirai Reina in to take away the backlog of files, she knocked and ca in on her own initiative.
"Professor, soone from the tropolitan Police Departnt is here to see you!" Shirai Reina spoke with a sowhat nervous tone, evidently worried about the police looking for Yu Chen.
As Yu Chen's secretary, Shirai Reina was obviously concerned whether Yu Chen was involved in so trouble, hence the police visit, and even if that was not the case, a police visit generally wasn't a good sign.
However, Yu Chen wasn't surprised at all, just smiled and said, "Please let them in, and anwhile, Rena, could you help bring in two cups of tea?"
"Yes, Professor." Seeing that Yu Chen exhibited no signs of panic, Shirai Reina cald down as well, nodded, and then ushered in the people from the Public Security Intelligence Agency who ca looking for Yu Chen into his office.
The visitor from the tropolitan Police Departnt was a woman, followed by two n in black suits who looked quite capable and efficient.

"Professor Chen, I am Kusanagi Ritsuko from the Public Security Section 9 of the tropolitan Police Departnt, it is my first ti eting you, please advise ." The woman greeted Yu Chen, but she did not bow as Japanese people customarily do; instead, she gave a military salute.
Seeing Kusanagi Ritsuko salute, Yu Chen's gaze sharpened as he asked her, "Miss Kusanagi, were you previously in the military?"
"Yes, I served in the Mariti Self-Defense Force, with the rank of Lieutenant Commander," Kusanagi Ritsuko admitted candidly upon being asked about her military service by Yu Chen.
Hearing what Kusanagi Ritsuko said, Yu Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows; he had never had much of a liking for Japanese military personnel.
Perhaps sensing the shift in Yu Chen's emotions, Kusanagi Ritsuko made a discreet sign to her subordinates behind her. After the two subordinates left Yu Chen's office and closed the door, Kusanagi Ritsuko then said to Yu Chen, "I am here by the direct orders of the Pri Minister to assist you with this special incident, and I hope you will look favorably upon in our upcoming work."
Yu Chen nodded noncommittally, having picked up on Kusanagi Ritsuko's implied aning, but he wasn't particularly bothered by it, and instead asked her, "What reason did you give for coming to the hospital? You didn't co directly here, did you?"
"Due to a previous attack by cultists, the case has been handed over to the Public Security General Affairs Division for managent," Kusanagi Motoko explained briefly.
In Japan, when "Public Security" is ntioned, it usually refers to two departnts: the Public Security Division of the tropolitan Police Departnt and the Public Security Intelligence Agency.
The Public Security Division of the tropolitan Police Departnt reports directly to the Cabinet, while the Public Security Intelligence Agency falls under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice. The Cabinet Office and the Ministry of Justice are at the sa administrative level. Although both are intelligence organizations, they are completely separate systems. The Public Security Division investigates organizations such as cults or right-wing groups within the police system, while the Public Security Intelligence Agency is a pure intelligence agency.
It is apt that the Public Security Division handles things related to cults.
"Is that so? Then I ask that you pay close attention to this matter as well. After all, the fetus will be born soon, and I'm worried that soone else might try to do sothing," Yu Chen said, taking the opportunity to address Kusanagi Ritsuko, "This is a hospital after all, and I believe that neither you nor your superiors wish to see a terrorist attack happen here."
Kusanagi Motoko nodded in understanding and agreent upon hearing Yu Chen's words, "The Section Chief briefed on this before coming. There will be an action team responsible for security here, to ensure that the experint runs smoothly."
"That puts my mind at ease," Yu Chen finally showed a smile on his face and then brought up the main topic with Kusanagi Ritsuko, "Regarding that matter, I've already spoken to the female party. For now, don't take any extraneous actions. The sa goes for the male party—focus on surveillance for the ti being. However, should there be any changes or unexpected occurrences, inform imdiately."
"Understood, I will submit the relevant information to the concerned departnts soon." Before coming here, Kusanagi Ritsuko knew that the doctor before her was the person in charge of the event, and he was appointed personally by the Pri Minister, so she had no other emotions involved—she just needed to follow orders.
However, her attitude made Yu Chen sowhat displeased. Perhaps it was a natural predilection against the Japanese military, and Kusanagi Ritsuko's deanor of blind obedience only intensified Yu Chen's disfavor, but he did not harbor any ill will towards Kusanagi Ritsuko, opting instead to keep interactions strictly professional.
"Miss Kusanagi, is there anything else? If not, I need to go make my rounds, and it's not convenient for you to follow," Yu Chen said, standing up from his chair and picking up the stethoscope that was placed beside him.
Kusanagi Ritsuko, upon hearing what Yu Chen said, had no choice but to bow stiffly and took her leave, "Then I will take my leave first."
