After all, until the installation of the hibernation pods in Anthony's villa and the Smith family's estate, all of the research findings had been theoretical.

But now that these two hibernation pods were being used by Maria and Mathias, the researchers could get their hands on practical results.

Every day, the data was sent to Sophie's research institute. These “trials” really accelerated the development of the research.

The sooner the research institute perfected the technique of hibernation, the sooner Maria might be able to be cured of her narcolepsy problem once and for all. But now, Maria was facing an intractable hurdle: a lack of funds.

In fact, she had already made a remarkable amount of money in a short period of time with her novels, jade carvings, music works, design drawings and so on.
