Start the liver experience with push-ups

Wen Chuan District, Taijiang Hospital.

After consulting the service desk in the lobby, Fang Cheng carried an exquisite fruit basket and took the elevator to the 3rd floor.

This hospital is private and has a small building area, only five stories high.

However, the environment is very elegant and quiet, and the decoration is also very sophisticated.

It doesn't have the noise and clamor of a large public hospital.

Along the way, there seemed to be more medical staff than patients, and their attitude was exceptionally kind.

If it weren't for the smell of disinfectant in the air, one would have thought they had walked into a luxury hotel.

"Those who can stay here must be rich people, right?"

Fang Cheng looked around while searching for Goro Majima's ward.

After passing through the corridor and around the corner, he finally found a VIP ward in a particularly secluded location.

At this time, two burly men in black suits and sunglasses were standing outside the door.

They seemed to be bodyguards hired by Goro Majima.

Fang Cheng stepped forward and politely stated his identity and purpose.

But he was still blocked outside the door.

The two bodyguards seemed very indifferent, as if they didn't understand Xia country's language, nor did they go in to inform their employer.

They just silently raised their hands, making a gesture to prohibit entry.

Fang Cheng was slightly stunned, then shook his head, put down the fruit basket, and turned to leave.

He didn't expect Goro Majima's airs to be even bigger than a celebrity's…

At this moment, someone inside seemed to hear the movement, and a woman's voice came out.

"Let him in."

Fang Cheng paused, considered it, and chose to stay.

Walking into the ward, he could see that it was a very spacious suite.

Not only were all kinds of medical and nursing facilities complete, but the decoration also leaned towards a warm, home-like style.

Sunlight shone in through the wide glass window, completely eliminating any oppressive atmosphere.

Goro Majima was lying on the hospital bed, his whole body wrapped like a mummy.

Especially around his neck, he had a thick white plaster cast.

A young woman in a floral dress was accompanying him by the bed.

That was Goro Majima's fiancée, named Cui Xiuying, a Xia country person.

After yesterday's misunderstanding and exchange, Fang Cheng could be considered acquainted with her.

"I'm sorry, I used too much force yesterday."

Fang Cheng glanced at the ward environment and then apologized.

He picked up the fruit basket and put it on the table next to him.

As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at his fiancée standing beside him, fearing that she would blame him.

It seemed that after deliberately sending her away yesterday, he secretly competed with Fang Cheng, but was still discovered.

Cui Xiuying didn't say anything impolite, and behaved quite dignified and graceful.

She invited Fang Cheng to sit down and then brought a glass of water and handed it to him.

Fang Cheng thanked her and took it with both hands.

During the small talk, he also learned about Goro Majima's current condition.

Multiple fractures throughout his body, and severe contusions of muscle tissue.

The most serious part was his neck, which was fixed with a plaster cast.

Fortunately, he didn't suffer any internal injuries.

The attending doctor happened to come over for a post-operative examination and diagnosed that he would need to be hospitalized for observation and treatment for at least a month.

However, Goro Majima felt good about himself and even seemed healthier and more cheerful than usual.

He didn't care at all, as if he was used to it, and even clamored to go home immediately to recuperate.

Cui Xiuying scolded him a few times before he honestly shut his mouth.

It must be said that this guy's physique is indeed different from ordinary people.

Perhaps it should be said, reaching the point of being "inhuman"…

The thought lingered in Fang Cheng's mind.

After the doctor left the ward, he immediately spoke:

"Mr. Majima, may I be so bold as to ask a question?"

Fang Cheng paused, his eyes faintly revealing a sharp edge, staring at Goro Majima.

"Which school of karate did you learn? Why did your muscles swell and turn into that strange appearance during the fight?"

This question was the main purpose of Fang Cheng's special visit.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Goro Majima and Cui Xiuying, this soon-to-be-married couple, both became unnatural.

It seemed to involve some unspeakable secrets.

Just when Fang Cheng was disappointed, thinking that he couldn't get to the bottom of it.

Goro Majima suddenly sighed slightly, a bitter smile on his face.

"It's no wonder Mr. Fang is suspicious. The bizarre nature of this matter probably can't be explained clearly in a few words…"

He didn't immediately explain the reason, but his eyes were low, as if recalling some unbearable past.

Although Cui Xiuying tried to dissuade him, he still waved his hand and then slowly told Fang Cheng the whole story.

Goro Majima was born in a very traditional samurai family in Wakayama Prefecture, Dongying.

His grandfather was one of the promoters of the Dongying Karate National Competition, with the unique skill of knocking down bulls with a hand knife, and could be called a respected martial arts master.

Under the influence of the family environment, he loved martial arts since he was a child, diligently studied various skills, and was determined to be a fighting athlete who shed youthful blood on the field.

However, because his physical foundation was weak and his talent was not high, he was only qualified to participate in some amateur competitions at the age of 18.

His cousin of the same generation in the family had already successfully advanced to the National Competition and became the rising star in the media's mouth.

Bearing the halo given by his grandfather, Goro Majima still performed like a waste even though he exercised early and late every day.

He had to change his ideals and enter the Literature Department of the university.

However, it was during his university years that he met his current girlfriend, Cui Xiuying, an international student from Xia country.

Originally, he thought that he would just marry and have children and spend the rest of his life like this.

As a result, one day, he accidentally met a person who claimed to be a representative of a pharmaceutical company, saying that the company was researching a new type of drug.

This drug can stimulate the pituitary gland to secrete a mysterious hormone, constantly strengthening physical fitness and ultimately breaking through various human limits.

Although Goro Majima was somewhat suspicious and hesitant, he couldn't suppress the ambition in his heart.

After seeing some actual cases, he finally signed a confidentiality agreement with them and risked participating in the so-called third phase of drug testing experiments.

Facts have proved that the drug's effect was far beyond Goro Majima's expectations.

He reinvested in physical exercise and stepped onto the field again.

His combat results then rapidly improved, successfully breaking into the National Competition, and various KOs of opponents on the field.

Even received an invitation from the world's top mixed martial arts competition, and was called the "Tiger of Wakayama" by Dongying media.

For a time, fame, money, and praise came one after another, making Goro Majima somewhat intoxicated by this.

But behind the scenery often hides an unspeakable secret.

His body began to show some abnormalities.

First, large patches of hair fell out, then he often had nosebleeds and sudden heart palpitations.

The changes were far more than that.

The most fatal thing was that Goro Majima developed a strong and unparalleled dependence on that drug.

He needed regular injections to restrain the inexplicably generated anxiety, anger, and hatred emotions.

It was as if a terrifying monster was parasitic in his heart.

Constantly devouring the good qualities of gentleness, humility, and compassion that the original body possessed.

As long as his mood was slightly bad, that monster would stir up.

Sometimes he couldn't help it, he would buy a can of bugs, slowly drown them, and then crush them one by one.

If he didn't vent like this, he was worried that he would reach out to his compatriots.

Goro Majima was afraid that he would completely lose his mind, tried to quit the drug, but could not achieve it at all.

It just continued slowly, gradually accumulating.

Until one day.

He finally couldn't help it… releasing the monster in his heart.
