Although, according to White's previous statement, as long as the medicine is made, Gina's illness should be 100% curable.
However, considering the time and complicated steps involved, Luca was not going to explain it in detail to Samira again; he just needed her to understand that her mother Gina's illness was not hopeless.
Anyway, after White's examination, he could slowly explain the preparations needed for the treatment, there was still plenty of time.
It was only after seeing Samira, who was somewhat emotional about White, calm down slightly, that Luca reopened his mouth to ask.
"Aunt Samira, you didn't just come to bring me food, did you? How long will it take for the materials I mentioned earlier to arrive? Oh, and how are things going with contacting that tactical squad?"
Actually, the former was what Luca truly cared about.
Although the bodyguard matter was also very important, Luca, having just synthesized the two powerful tools, White and crime tracking glasses, was unprecedentedly excited about new tools.
Moreover, even though 'Sweet Captive' had a somewhat nonsensical name, it was indeed a mechanical arm with healing effects.
Coupled with the persistent 'glowing' issue, Luca still wanted to synthesize it as soon as possible.
However, upon hearing Luca's question, Samira's answer somewhat dashed his expectations.
"The grappling gun and transmission rod you requested, Young Master, are already in stock at the company and should be delivered to the Villa tomorrow. And… um… different models of vibrators are also relatively easy to obtain."
"The only troublesome items are the several types of therapy devices you mentioned earlier, Young Master. Since some of them are quite rare on the market, the delivery time might be slower."
Actually, one thing Samira didn't mention was that the company's weapons department was also somewhat reluctantly grumbling about Luca's request for the 'grappling gun' and 'transmission rod' this time.
After all, to put it plainly, Luca had no actual power within Orange Industries; at most, he was just a 14-year-old boy with the identity of the company owner's heir.
Letting the weapons department provide 'materials' once or twice was fine; these people would just treat it as a way to curry favor with the future boss, playing house with a child.
But if it continued like this, these people would inevitably harbor some resentment.
Coupled with Samira's identity as the boss's 'trusted driver,' to be honest, she couldn't quite keep those somewhat arrogant 'research talents' in the weapons department in line.
However, these people only dared to complain a little and implicitly express their dissatisfaction.
After all, it was for work; even graduate students had to babysit for their supervisors. If they truly ignored Luca's small requests, they didn't want to find trouble.
So Samira chose not to mention it to Luca to avoid adding to his worries.
The conversation returned to the present.
After hearing what Samira said, Luca thought for a moment and decided not to rush her, simply saying,
"Then let's leave it at that for now. Just let me know as soon as any of the therapy devices arrive."
"Alright."
Seeing that Luca took the topic rather casually, Samira secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then continued to answer the latter question.
"I've already contacted Dun Shan—oh, the Captain of that tactical squad—about the tactical squad I mentioned earlier. They've been on standby these past few days and have already set off to return after our communication ended."
"As for the time, at the latest, it will be the day after tomorrow during the day. If it's early, they should arrive tomorrow night. You know, Young Master, the area around Manhattan has been quite chaotic recently, and even Connecticut here has become quite troublesome…"
Luca casually shook his head upon hearing this.
"I understand, Aunt Samira, no need to explain."
"But, Young Master, you also said you wanted to check on the Madam tomorrow." Samira hesitated slightly as she said this.
"It's fine, isn't Aunt Samira here with me?"
"Then you should rest early, Young Master. I won't disturb you. I'll have the cleaning staff come to tidy up the things here tomorrow."
Saying that, Samira prepared to walk towards her own room, but she paused slightly, thought for a moment, and added another sentence.
"Young Master, you just finished eating. You might want to do some light activity before going to bed."
Watching Samira's retreating back, Luca couldn't help but smile wryly.
'Samira, who used to be a bit careless, is now starting to care about my health.'
However, Luca didn't actually plan to go to bed immediately.
At least, before going to sleep, he still had other things to do.
"White, bring your box and follow me."
Saying that, Luca strode directly towards the Underground Room stairs of the Villa.
White, behind him, first looked around at the messy floor, then took small steps, quickly walked to the red box used to store himself, picked it up, and immediately followed Luca's footsteps.
...
In the second-story Underground Room.
This Underground Room was very large, and the entire second Underground Room floor consisted of only this one room.
However, all around this Underground Room.
3D printers, laser cutters, small CNC machine tools, spectrum analyzers, Fourier infrared spectrometers...
All kinds of experimental equipment, in various forms, made this originally spacious room seem less empty.
In fact, this Underground Room was a private home laboratory specially customized by Hermann, the original owner's father.
Initially, it was just for occasionally teaching Luca some basic theoretical knowledge, cultivating his interest in electronic engineering, and at most, for playing with small robot toys with him.
However, as more and more types of equipment were purchased, constantly updated and replaced, and acquired from the company.
Later, Hermann himself would often use this place as another small laboratory outside the company, conducting research and testing in his leisure time.
Only now, this laboratory had only Luca as its user.
Looking at the various scenes in the laboratory, Luca couldn't help but recall bits and pieces from the original owner's memories, those happy experiences with his father, Hermann.
Actually, these memories of the original owner in Luca's mind felt more like watching a movie from an outsider's perspective.
This was also why he could clearly recognize that he was not the original owner after transmigrating, and why his emotions towards the original parents always felt somewhat detached.
However, even if it was a movie, a first-person perspective inevitably led to a sense of immersion.
The scene of such profound memories, coupled with having just experienced Hermann's funeral today, made Luca himself unconsciously feel a touch of melancholy.
'Seriously, why am I thinking so much? Who knows what kind of abilities I might master in the future? When the time comes, I'll revive Hermann, which would also be repaying the favor of occupying the original owner's body.'
Quickly shaking off these 'boring' thoughts from his mind, Luca hurried to a computer.
"White, come here! I'm going to upgrade you~"
