"I... have an idea," his voice was soft, with a strong German accent, "Next to M7's cage there is a pot of pothos, which I have been taking care of. Last month, when I was away, it almost died. When I came back, I didn't directly water it, I first trimmed off the dead leaves, and then watered only half the usual amount. Now it's revived and growing better than before."
Everyone looked at him, unsure of what he was going to say.
"What I mean," Fritz blushed, "is that sometimes help is not about giving more, but giving less, at the right time. Scars are the same way, maybe we don't need to add any new drugs, just reduce something at a specific time."
Yang Ping looked at him, looked for a long time, and then smiled: "Fritz, you're right, we need a 'pruning' strategy, not a 'fertilizing' strategy."
