He Ao frowned and looked at Roger, "Where did you get it?"
Federal law stipulates that anyone who brings exotic animals into a barrier city without authorization will face at least twenty years in prison.
"Picked it up next to the laboratory," Roger shrugged nonchalantly. He casually picked up the alloy scalpel beside him. The light of the knife danced on his dexterous fingertips, and in an instant he neatly decomposed the 'lizard' into flesh, bones and skin.
of three parts.
Then he put the knife aside and continued to explain,
"This kind of thing cannot be considered a strange beast, it can only be said to be an ordinary creature that mutates slightly in a polluted environment."
"Polluting the environment?" He Ao raised his eyebrows. He clearly remembered that Roger just said that he picked it up next to the laboratory. "What the hell are you doing?"
"Don't look at me like this. You know, my laboratory is close to the sewer of Chenxi City. Although the sewer system of the barrier city is closed, you can always pick up some interesting little things there."
Roger smiled and shrugged, "Why, old man, are you going to become a partner of justice? Are you still so passionate at your age?"
The memory from Regit told He Ao that what Roger meant by "getting closer" was probably a hole directly opened next to the sewer.
He did not go into depth on this topic. Most of the guys who live well in the underground world have their own secrets. It is a very impolite behavior to dig into the other person's secrets.
Even though Ridgit and Roger had a good relationship, it didn't go as far as exchanging secrets, and Roger obviously didn't want to talk in detail.
So He Ao just wrote down this clue in his mind, then picked up the cigarettes Roger put on the table, lit one and held it in his mouth, "How long have I been asleep?"
"Three days," Roger squinted at him, "Old guy, your body is really good. Other old guys at your age would have died long ago after suffering such serious injuries, but you just need to
You can stand here and chat with me for three days."
three days,
He Ao paused. This time was somewhat beyond his expectation. In fact, his wounds had basically healed by this time.
Although Ridgit's body is strong, as he gets older and his body ages, an injury of this degree requires him to lie down for at least ten days and a half. This time, he recovered in only three days, which is a bit abnormal.
He Ao didn't know if it was because of himself. Ender's body seemed to be recovering well before. He wrote down this detail, looked at Roger, and continued to ask,
"How much?"
"No money is required, as long as you agree to give me your body for research."
Roger said with a smile.
"Not interested," He Ao smoked a cigarette and slowly leaned on the table, "Quote."
Although his wound has basically healed, big movements may still stretch the newly healed wound, causing obvious pain.
Hearing He Ao's rejection, Roger yawned without interest and said casually,
"You can pay five thousand three hundred for the bandaging, suturing, surgery fee, anesthesia fee, external wound medicine, and the glucose injection when you were unconscious."
"I didn't need anesthesia at all when I was in a coma. It's impossible for you to give me anesthesia because of your personality." He Ao smoked a cigarette. "Your homemade wound medicine caused an infection and amputation before. It's not worth that much money, 3,800.
"
"This old guy is still so picky at his age," Roger lay back on the chair, "Okay, three thousand and eighty, just three thousand and eighty, you can transfer it to my account."
Seeing his generous promise, He Ao was not happy, but was stunned and then cursed,
"Bleach it, it's done. You little boy Nian Lin has a bad heart. Do you still have an unopened bracelet? Give me one as a gift. My bracelet was broken last night."
Underground doctors cannot operate without a business license, so they usually have external disguises. The external disguise of Roger's clinic is that it is a smart bracelet shop, treating diseases and selling smart bracelets.
In fact, not only the bracelet, but also his original clothes had been destroyed in the battle, and now he only had bandages all over his body.
"Old guy, you're so picky," Roger cursed and stood up, "No old lady likes you like this."
"When I was young, I never played any tricks," He Ao spat, "Quickly, get one for me, the most expensive one."
"Take it, do you want love?"
Roger went to the store outside to find the simplest smart bracelet for He Ao and slapped it on the table.
He Ao directly picked up the bracelet and took it apart. This is the latest O37 smart bracelet produced by the Nord Consortium. It has simple functions and is cheap. It is mainly targeted at students and the elderly.
This bracelet is worth about two hundred federal coins, which is equivalent to successful bargaining.
He Ao put the bracelet on his hand, borrowed Roger a set of clothes, and slowly left the clinic.
Roger was taller than him, so his clothes were a little looser, but it didn't affect his movement. He walked towards home step by step.
Three thousand eighty, which is about two months' salary of his job as a librarian, but Roger's price is indeed very cheap, and he can negotiate the price.
If he chooses a regular hospital, first of all, the ambulance dispatch will cost more than a thousand federal dollars, plus the hospital treatment and various expenses, and finally deducting medical insurance, he will have to pay at least more than 10,000 federal dollars.
So if you seek treatment from underground doctors, it will be better than anywhere except that the mortality rate is a little higher.
The house that Ridgit rented is very close to Roger's underground clinic and the Morningside City Library, about a fifteen-minute walk away. This location is at the junction of Aston District and Crown District, between prosperity and chaos.
.
He Ao passed by the place where he killed the robot that night. The crater left by the explosion of the high-performance battery was still clearly visible, and the surrounding traces had long been cleaned up.
Pedestrians are busy and vehicles are noisy.
No one is talking about it, and there aren't any police around to investigate.
In these chaotic neighborhoods, death is a normal occurrence, and Aston District's tax revenue cannot support the district government to hire a large enough police force to maintain a stable police force.
Therefore, the district government will give priority to protecting high-end residences and medium-sized ordinary residences, which are the source of most of Aston District's tax revenue.
In the chaotic lower-level neighborhoods, the police can only do more than they can do.
Most of the robots are people who have not registered and carry out mechanical modifications without authorization. Most of them hang out at the bottom of society and are labeled as dangerous people.
If an ordinary citizen died accidentally, the police might investigate seriously, but a low-level mechanical lunatic doesn't even have a social security card number.
If you die, you will die. You can only add one page to the mystery file.
This is Chenxi City.
The city that Regit saw and the city that Ender saw were the same city, but not the same city.
He Ao passed through the crowd and turned into a trail. This is a shortcut and relatively remote. You often encounter gang members who gather to take drugs, but they basically don't cause trouble.
And just as he was slowly walking through the alley, a group of strange young people suddenly blocked his way.
