Chapter 440 Hospital (please vote for the big chapter)

The closed smart lock was unlocked, and the tall bald man opened the door.
A dark and tidy indoor scene appeared in front of the man.
The man did not turn on the light, but took out a flashlight and turned it on, and a strong light shone in the room.
He reached out to close the door and looked around with a flashlight.
The house was very clean, there was no dust on the floor, and it was obvious that someone had been living in it.
He walked to the sofa, squatted down, and carefully looked at the smooth and clean floor. The place where the carpet should have been was now empty.
There was a slight sound coming from the ceiling, which was the sound of the fresh air system in this house operating.
The man was lying on the ground, carefully examining the floor with a flashlight.
His nails dug into the cracks in the floor and pulled out some tiny bright red lumps. He collected these lumps and continued inside.
There seemed to be no one in the whole room, and the thick curtains were drawn tightly, blocking out all the light.
He looked around every room. The bed in the master bedroom was a little messy. It was obvious that the owner didn't have time to clean it up when he left.
The second bedroom seems to be a children's room, with the children's books spread out on the table.
All this proves that this family was in a hurry when they left.
He returned to the living room again and turned the flashlight to his head. The ceiling light in the living room had been damaged, leaving only incomplete remains.
Then he walked to the window and opened the thick curtains.
There was nothing hidden behind the curtains, and bright sunlight shone into the dark room in an instant.
The bald man glanced at the curtains in confusion, as if he didn't understand why the family had to close the curtains so tightly.
At this moment, a faint siren sounded in his ears. He looked down and vaguely saw a vehicle with its warning lights flashing on the street parked downstairs.
His expression changed and he looked back.
On the door frame of the house, a dark mini camera was watching him.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard a fierce knock on the door, "Limen City Police Department, open the door!"
——
"How's it going over there in Ax?"
Rhett put the tablet in his hand on the table and looked at the officer beside him.
"He's at the police station now."
The officer responded with some embarrassment.
"?"
Rhett was stunned.
What's going on? Something leaked out? The previous management didn't work? Has the local market changed?
"That guy installed cameras in his home and set up automatic alarms,"
The officer looked at Red's expression and knew that he had misunderstood, and quickly explained, "Akers was caught as soon as he entered. He is still in the police station. The burglary charge should not be evaded."
······
Rhett was silent for a moment, took out a cigarette and lit it.
"Mr. Reid, do we..."
The officer opened his mouth and asked Red if he wanted to fish the person out.
"What do you want me to say?"
Rhett took a drag on his cigarette and said, "Call the police chief of Limen City and tell me that one of my people was caught by you. He broke into someone else's house and was caught? Not even a thief would be caught doing such a thing. As a result,
My men were arrested, or they were arrested on the spot!"
The officer dared not speak.
"Then you don't have to wait until tomorrow. The whole group will know my joke this afternoon."
Rhett sighed, stood up and walked to the window, "If you attempt a burglary, you won't be in jail for long. You will either be detained or sentenced to volunteer work. Please ask someone to pay some bail and bail him out first."
"good."
The officer nodded.
"So Pete is really not home anymore?"
Rhett looked at the street scene outside the window, holding a cigarette in his mouth, and asked slowly.
Obviously, this matter was deliberately arranged by the other party. The other party expected that he would definitely send someone to check and deliberately disgusted him. If the crime was a little more serious, the other party could directly use the power of the group to solve it.
But for such a minor crime, using the power of the group will make him look very incompetent.
He could only accept this humiliating loss, pretend that nothing happened, and pay money for bail.
Although the matter is not a big deal, it is indeed very provocative.
This was an invisible confrontation, and he suffered a small loss.
"Mr. Reid, do you want to start a search?"
The officer also stood up slowly and walked behind Red.
At this moment, Rhett had finished smoking the cigarettes in his hand. The officer took out an exquisite cigarette case from his pocket, took out a cigarette, and handed it to Rhett.
Rhett glanced at him, took the new cigarette, and threw away the finished cigarette butt.
With quick eyesight and quick hands, the officer quickly grabbed the cigarette butt and extinguished the sparks in his hand.
Rhett looked up at him again, bowed slightly, and put the new cigarette in his hand to his mouth.
The officer quickly took out the cigarette lighter and lit a cigarette for Red.
As the faint smoke rose again, Rhett laughed and said, "Zadi, the new mercenary group transferred from the Stars Mercenary Group will be under your command for the time being."
"Thank you Mr. Reed for your trust," Officer Zady said with a smile on his face, and then he asked carefully, "What about Pate..."
"That guy has his daughter and owns real estate in the city. Since he didn't leave by airship, a normal person would probably find a way to hide somewhere in the city and wait for the news to pass."
Rhett turned around and looked out the window.
"The subordinate immediately sent someone to investigate,"
Zaidi stood up straight and saluted, "As long as he is still in Limen City, he can't escape!"
"Don't worry," Rhett said slowly, "What if he's not in the store?"
Zaidi: "You mean...?"
"A normal person's thinking would be to hide in the city, but it's obvious that that guy is not a normal person. From the beginning, he has been very cautious."
Rhett paused and squinted his eyes slightly, "A powerful C-level can live a comfortable life in the wilderness..."
"But we don't have C-level combat power now. Mano was killed by him. We can still find a way to use the power of the city defense army in the city..."
Zaidi said hesitantly.
"No, we do," Rhett slowly turned around, looked at Zaidi's confused face, and handed him an electronic key.
"Go to the safe on the bottom floor of the research institute, get five of the latest C-VII strengthening agents, and then send a test team to the wilderness. There are only a few gathering places for wanderers in the wilderness around Rimon City.
If people want to live, they cannot live without the community.”
"C-Ⅶ?" Zaidi's pupils shrank slightly, "Did the group's experiment succeed?"
"This effect only lasts ten minutes, which is far from enough."
Rhett glanced at him and said, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
"Okay, okay."
Zaidi nodded sharply, "I'll do it now."
——
Andavi family camp
The old doctor seemed to have noticed He Ao looking at him. He raised his head, looked in He Ao's direction, smiled at He Ao and nodded gently, and then continued his ward rounds.
He Ao's movements paused slightly.
There was no anger in the old man's eyes.
This is rare among wilderness wanderers. When you survive in the wilderness, you will inevitably fight monsters and intrigues with others. Your hands will be more or less stained with blood. If you have killed many creatures, you will inevitably have ruthlessness in your eyes.
Violent spirit.
He Ao looked back at the middle-aged man, "Doctors don't need to participate in hunting and fighting?"
This question made the middle-aged man slightly confused. He looked at He Ao in surprise and nodded lightly, "The doctors in the family only need to treat illnesses and save people. They don't need to participate in hunting or fighting."
While listening to the reply, He Ao glanced at the second floor and asked softly, "How did you select the doctors? Can you tell me?"
"Sorry, this is an internal matter within our family."
The middle-aged man smiled apologetically.
"fine."
He Ao shook his head and did not ask further questions. In fact, even without the middle-aged man telling him, he could roughly guess what kind of doctors the Andavi family relied on.
extraordinary.
Most of the doctors on the second floor are extraordinary beings, but some are weak and some are strong. For example, the old doctor just now is most likely a D-class extraordinary.
Judging from this extraordinary proportion, even if the talent sequence can be passed down, the number of extraordinary people in the Andavi family is somewhat terrifying.
This family should already have a complete training system in place, which can train those who are qualified for certain specific talent sequences.
He Ao's eyes moved to the wooden staircase in the corner of the second floor. This staircase was equipped with an electronic lock that required identity verification, blocking people from the second floor from going up.
He Ao looked at the electronic lock and asked softly, "Can I go up and have a look?"
The middle-aged man opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
He had just rejected He Ao's question, and now it seemed impolite to continue to refuse.
He thought for a moment and took out the walkie-talkie, "Wait a moment, let me ask the clan leader."
"OK."
He Ao nodded slightly.
While the middle-aged man continued to ask the clan leader, He Ao's eyes carefully scanned the medical staff coming and going.
"Dad, these people's hair is so light."
Aini poked her head out from behind him.
Although the hair of the Federation people comes in many colors, the depth is generally uniform. Most people's hair color is in the middle, with a few being too dark or too light.
There is no particular essential difference between wilderness wanderers and city dwellers. Theoretically speaking, the hair color that Ho saw in the Andavi family should be similar to that in Limen City.
But in fact, the hair color of the Andavi family is very light.
The hair color of these medical staff in the hospital is lighter than that of ordinary people outside.
However, it is possible for people in the same family to be more or less related by blood and have similar facial features.
He Ao stood next to Ai Ni and nodded slightly, indicating that he also noticed the color of these people's hair.
"Mr. Pate, the patriarch said you can go up and visit," the middle-aged man came back quickly, "but there are some dangerous medicinal materials collected there. You may want to be careful when visiting."
"good."
He Ao nodded to express understanding.
A group of three people passed the identity verification and entered the third floor of the hospital.
The third floor is smaller than the first and second floors, but there is no partition like the first and second floors, but it is divided into two areas.
Along the outer wall, there are open workbenches, arranged in order according to certain rules.
In the middle of the entire floor, there are arc-shaped shelves. These shelves are gathered together to form nested circles, just like the bookshelves in a library, filling the middle area.
There are some strange plant or animal parts placed on the shelves.
These seem to be the ‘dangerous medicinal materials’ that the middle-aged man just said.
Some people wearing pure white lab coats were walking between the workbenches and shelves.
Some of these people are extraordinary and some are not extraordinary.
He Ao walked step by step towards the shelves in the center of the third floor.
But before he even got close to the shelves, a feeling of hunger arose in his heart.
At the same time, Aini on the side also raised her head and looked at her father.
Obviously, she also felt this sudden hunger.
Both men were familiar with this feeling of hunger.
This is the temptation of ‘Ghost Mushroom’!
There are ghost mushrooms on this third floor!
Following the feeling of hunger and temptation, He Ao walked through the shelves and found a glass bottle as big as two palms in the innermost position.
A white mushroom is lying quietly in a glass bottle.
This 'man-eating mushroom', which is full of weirdness and has aroused the fear of countless beings outside, is lying quietly in the glass bottle, just like an ordinary and ordinary mushroom.
"Mr. Pate, the things here are more dangerous the closer you get, please don't touch them casually."
The middle-aged man quickly chased after him. He glanced at the small glass bottle in front of He Ao and reached out to block He Ao.
"Are you working on this?"
He Ao looked at the middle-aged man.
"This is something from the hospital, I don't know much about it."
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "I am responsible for guarding the camp."
"Well," He Ao looked at the middle-aged man and suddenly asked thoughtfully, "Can you feel hungry?"
"Um?"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then he thought, "It seems that I don't feel anything."
He Ao raised his head, passed through the gap between the shelves, and looked at the people coming and going outside. Many of these people were ordinary people.
But they seemed to have ignored the temptation of the ghost mushrooms and walked around normally.
He Ao has personally experienced that even if there is only one ghost mushroom, the temptation of the ghost mushroom is not something that ordinary people can resist.
Judging from the fact that both he and Aini felt hungry, this ghost mushroom's ability had not been blocked.
He Ao turned on his super memory and took a look around.
Pedestrians all have a faint 'shadow' attached to them, which is their soul.
These are living people, not monsters disguised as living people.
He Ao vaguely felt that he had grasped the clue to solve the current situation.
He looked at the middle-aged man, "Can this bottle be used to determine whose test subject it is?"
"Of course," the middle-aged man nodded slightly, looking at the bottle, "There is a label corresponding to the experimenter under this bottle... The experimenter of this bottle is No. 1... the leader of the clan."
"Your clan leader," Aini glanced at the surroundings with some confusion. The old appearance of the clan leader appeared in her mind, "You are also a researcher here?"
"To be precise, the patriarch is the president of the hospital," the middle-aged man said with a smile. "Only the president of the hospital can be the patriarch of our family. Only people with high attainments in medicine are qualified to be our president."
The patriarch of the clan."
Aini was a little confused. She didn't understand how the hospital director had an inevitable relationship with the family patriarch.
As for He Ao, there were no surprises.
It would be understandable if the hospital was replaced by a temple and the director of the hospital was replaced by the high priest of the temple.
In the Andavi family, the status of the hospital is the same as that of the temple, but they don't know which 'god' they 'believe in'.
"This mushroom should have been brought back by the patriarch's research team," the middle-aged man looked at the label under the glass bottle carefully, "The note is...'man-eating mushroom'! Is this a man-eating mushroom?"
"Have you never seen this mushroom?"
He Ao asked softly.
"Someone in the clan has seen it, but I just didn't realize it for a moment. This thing is so common," the middle-aged man thought, "Many people who have seen this mushroom have died, so the clan leader asked us to try not to get close to the location of the man-eating mushroom.
.”
"Isn't it dangerous for you to study this?"
Aini asked doubtfully.
Since they said they were not allowed to get close, bringing the ghost mushrooms into the center of the camp for study was a bit too dangerous.
"It's absolutely safe in the hospital."
The middle-aged man said firmly.
Aini nodded half-understanding.
He Ao did not go into depth on this topic, but said to the middle-aged man, "Maybe I can talk to your clan leader again. I know some information about this 'human-eating mushroom', and I can probably solve these problems."
The mushroom method.”
The middle-aged man's expression was startled for a moment, then he looked at He Ao in disbelief and asked, "Really?"
