Chapter 444:
Doctor Moore pondered for a moment before saying in a deep voice, “I went to do more tests based on this data and discovered that there is a special potion in Ruby’s body. Since the dosage of this potion is not high, plus some of the ingredients are similar to the composition of the blood in the body, it is easy to overlook. The hospital where he went for testing earlier probably didn’t notice this data, that’s why they didn’t find it.”
“A special potion, what kind of potion?” Hearing this, Layton immediately stood up.
Doctor Moore gave him a momentary look of peace and gestured for him to sit down before continuing to speak.
“I have used analytical instruments to analyze the ingredients, but it is a potion I have never seen before, it must be someone’s latest research as it cannot be found on the current market including the black market, but that is not the most important thing.”
With a grave expression on his face, Levi immediately continued with the question,
“What is the effect of this potion, can you analyze it?”.
Doctor Moore nodded and pondered for a moment, looking at Levi before saying, “This potion is very scary! It has a strong controlling ability, once injected according to the dosage, the brain cells will be controlled, by then… she will be no different from a robot, just like a string of codes that can be easily controlled by someone!”

At these words, both Levi and Layton were stunned, followed by an unusual sinking of their faces.
Especially Levi, his eyes were as cold as ice, his gaze was like a sharp blade, as if he wanted to stab people.
“Looks like that person who instructed Wyon is trying to control Ruby!”.
Layton’s eyebrows knitted together, “But… What can he do if he’s controlling Ruby?”
Before Levi could speak, Doctor Moore stepped forward.
“It’s simple, either you want Ruby’s technology or you want what’s in your hands!”.
Today, the fact that Ruby was a good doctor and had made a name for herself in the medical profession was an open secret, but anyone with a little power knew it.
As for what she was holding in her hands, it could only be Logan and Cara’s relics.
Levi immediately thought of this and his face sank.
“It seems that the person behind this really has done everything possible to be able to control Ruby.”
“Yes.” Doctor Moore sighed heavily, “This new potion may be the latest development from a foreign lab, it hasn’t gone through the final tests yet, seeing as the ingredients have big holes and flaws, using it blindly now, the other side was in too much of a hurry to apply it.”
Hearing this, Layton expressed confusion, “Why is it a foreign lab, can’t it be a domestic research institute?”
Dr. Moore patiently explained, “Some of the ingredients in this are commonly used overseas, but their use is explicitly forbidden at home.”
Levi was more concerned about the solution and asked, “Now what do we do, is there a special drug for your disease, or is there some other treatment?”
Doctor Moore thought for a moment and shook his head with a regretful expression.
“Since this is a new potion, it is still half finished, or you can say it is a defective product. There is still no medicine that can cure it.”
Layton froze as he heard him, “Dr. Moore, even you can’t do anything?”
Levi had a frown on his face, he obviously hadn’t expected things to be so complicated.
Doctor Moore sighed again.
“I’d like to help, but in the current situation I can’t do anything. This potion has already been injected into Ruby, it has taken me too long to extract it, without the potion in hand, I cannot conduct relative research, the only way now is to go to foreign labs to take a chance to see if I can find this potion, or if I can get foreign labs to do research, developing a direct pharmacist to take the appropriate treatment.”
“Will it continue to worsen Ruby’s condition? Does it have any effect on her in other ways?” Layton then asked.
Dr. Moore shook his head, “So far not everything is certain, I can only say that Ruby will not be affected for the time being. The dose of this injected medicine is relatively small, only a part of the brain nerves has been stimulated. As for the current situation, the value is constantly receding, the best situation for now is to keep an eye on her.”
Hearing her words, Levi’s face became darker and darker.
He sat on the couch, hands clasped in his lap, his eyes filled with sadness.
After a while, he slowly released his hand and said with a grave expression on his face, “First I’ll send someone to scout the labs outside to see if we can find a way.”
That said, he nodded to Dr. Moore, got up and left the office.
…
Meanwhile, Olivia accompanied Ruby.
By this time, Ruby had woken up, but she didn’t open her eyes and continued to pretend to sleep.
She could feel Olivia stroking her hand tenderly.
“Mommy, you have to wake up soon…”
The little girl’s sweet voice rang through the room, full of concern, but no one answered her.
Hearing her voice, Ruby felt uneasy, she wanted to open her eyes to hug Olivia and reassure her, but in the end she restrained herself.
The way things were going, she couldn’t afford to make a mistake.
Only if she kept pretending would Benjamin think that she really had had a memory lapse and had actually forgotten that he was the one who had hurt her.
As for her pretending that she no longer knew how to heal, that was also a bait, to lure Benjamin in.
She knew that Benjamin, not having gotten away with it this time, would not rest easily and would find a way to attack again.
In that case, instead of staying defensive and being passive, she should take the initiative and create a dangerous situation herself, turning passivity into initiative.
Didn’t want to control her? Well, then give her a chance to make him think that he really can control her!
