Chapter: 3813

Despite having just passed a few days, Smith and Rogers were already on the verge of losing patience.

This reversal research had not yet produced any results, so Rogers received a special order from the White House envoy, brought by a high-level command.

The order required Rogers to produce ten boxes of Nine Heavens Reborn Pill and hand them over to the White House envoy along with the highest-level strategic materials and nuclear password box for strict storage.

This sudden turn put Rogers in an extremely difficult situation.

The Nine Heavens Reborn Pills that Smith had brought back totaled twenty boxes, 140 pills in total.

He left four boxes for his son Jimmy, and the remaining ones, except for those needed for reversal research, were also given to the four patients previously sent by the White House.

To begin with, they were already in a precarious situation.

Now, the envoy wants to take away ten boxes for strategic materials. This would leave them with almost nothing left in their hands.

Rogers couldn't help but complain to the envoy: "Mr. Envoy, the control over this medication is extremely strict, not only not releasing any at all, but even the hundred-person trials conducted by them in China are completely closed-loop operations, like what we do on our base for patients, where every pill has to be personally monitored as patients take it. In such a situation, if these twenty boxes of Nine Heavens Reborn Pill run out, I'm afraid it won't be easy to get more."

The envoy replied seriously: "The high-level authorities have instructed me to leave out ten boxes for strategic reserves, and this is also based on this consideration - what if our high-level authorities one day need to use this medication?"

He shook his head and said, "But you can't just take that many away at once. We'll only have a few more days' worth left... this medicine will be gone..."

The envoy replied without hesitation: "Mr. Rogers, you're having trouble here. You need to find your own solution. If not, we could stop your clinical trials and save most of the Nine Heavens Reborn Pills for you."

Although the White House has many high-ranking officials, the envoy is only serving the highest level of the White House.

As for those patients currently participating in the drug trial, they are not even related to the top-level individuals. So, the thoughts of the highest level are quite simple: take advantage of the medicine while it's still available and reserve some for themselves. As for other people's relatives, if necessary, they would have to give up.

Rogers was taken aback at first.

The envoy remained unmoved by his difficulties, speaking coldly: "Mr. Rogers, because this medicine is now a high-level strategic material, if you don't immediately hand it over to me, I can authorize the FBI to arrest you under the name of national security."

Rogers knew that the other party was not joking.

Once something is defined as high-level, it concerns national security. If one refuses to comply with orders, their career path will also be at an end.

Therefore, he dared not defy the envoy's order and had to take out ten boxes from the remaining Nine Heavens Reborn Pills and hand them over to the envoy.

After taking the medicine, the envoy immediately boarded an armed helicopter and left the base, while Rogers could only hurry to gather the hospital doctors and ask them to stop other patients' medication as of today. As for Jimmy Smith's son, he would reserve one box of medicine for him, but once he finishes this box, if he doesn't get additional Nine Heavens Reborn Pills, his medicine will be stopped as well.

This thing was quickly spread to Smith's ears.

When he heard it, he immediately rushed into Rogers' office and shouted at him, "Rogers! You said you reserved four boxes of medicine for my son, but why are doctors saying that after he finishes the last box, they will start preparing regular chemotherapy medication for him?!"

Rogers said helplessly, "Smith, I don't want to lie to you either. The envoy from the White House just took away ten boxes of Nine Heavens Reborn Pills from me here. Those ten boxes of medicine have become top-level strategic materials now, and it means something - I won't explain it to you anymore."

Smith listened to this and suddenly felt like a deflated ball.

Rogers' meaning was clear to him - in this situation, neither of them had any right to speak, and they could only follow orders. JrNovels.com
