Over the city of New York, the gloomy dark clouds have not yet dispersed.
But the heavy snowstorm that lasted for many days has stopped raging.
During the busy flow of people passing by.
The vitality of the city seems to be gradually returning.
In the streets and alleys, pot-bellied New York police officers wearing heavy police uniforms are cooperating with charitable organizations carrying out snow clearing work.
Try to bury homeless people who died unexpectedly due to sudden cold temperatures.
At this time, Rorschach, wearing a black trench coat, walked through the snow that had not been cleared away on a nearby street.
He turned his gaze slightly and glanced calmly at the stiff corpses with strange smiles on their faces.
Continue walking towards the road ahead.
At the same time, a small bottle of phantom dust was firmly tied to his thick wrist.
It sways slowly with the movement of the entire body.
At this moment, Rorschach is on his way to Manhattan Regional General Hospital.
That was the private medical center used to house Jessica.
Originally, he planned to take Jessica, whose injuries had not fully healed, directly back to the underground base.
Use Panacea or All-Soul Resurrection Potion on her to complete the final treatment.
However, this decision was immediately strongly opposed by a neurosurgeon who was responsible for Jessica's medical treatment.
The reasons given by the other party were also very straightforward.
If the patient's family members move the patient out of the hospital without authorization.
Then the bones in the injured person's body have not fully healed.
And the nerve tissue that has just been repaired through surgery will be at risk of breaking again.
And he didn't want to get involved in a similar medical lawsuit and ruin his perfect resume.
Therefore, even though the docking team of Imperial Heavy Industries almost broke their tongues and promised not to sue the other party for this.
The chief neurosurgery doctor still disagreed with Jessica's unauthorized discharge.
Unless the patient has fully recovered.
As a result, the choice fell into Rorschach's hands again.
He would have to ask the legal department of Imperial Heavy Industries to come forward and spend a lot of time to get Jessica discharged from the hospital.
Either go directly to the hospital and let Jessica take the panacea to make a complete recovery in the name of a visit, so that she can return smoothly.
Therefore, Rorschach, unwilling to wait any longer, stepped out of the underground base again.
This also made him subconsciously miss the conveniences brought by Iron Man David when he was still around.
After all, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
Moreover, if it were Iron Man David who dealt with similar matters.
He might not even have to step outside the gate of the base.
But this kind of day won't last long.
According to the recent report sent by Iron Man David.
It has successfully found several large islands with hidden locations and rich seafloor minerals.
He is leading the automatic servo robot in the final exploration operation.
Once Iron Man David determines the specific location of the second base.
The tedious early excavation work will be completely handed over to those automatic servo robots.
And Iron Man David, who has disappeared for a long time, can also return to his home ground.
Just remotely control the construction tasks of the second base.

Rorschach, wearing a black trench coat, blended in with all kinds of people very low-key.
He quietly entered the crowded general hospital.
Rorschach did not choose a more densely populated elevator.
Instead, he followed the remaining impressions from the last visit and walked towards the staircase passage.
Wait until he climbed up the fifth floor slowly.
And he successfully bypassed the nurse who was patrolling the ward and arrived at the door of Jessica's private ward.
In Rorschach's keen hearing, a man's voice came clearly from inside the ward with excellent sound insulation.
"Ms. Jessica, I know that you may have special abilities or physiques that ordinary people cannot have, but as long as you are still a carbon-based life, it will take a lot of time to repair your bones and body."
"This is not a series of tricks used by unscrupulous doctors to defraud patients' medical insurance, but a simple law of conservation of energy... Oh, with your academic qualifications, it is difficult for me to explain it to you, so I might as well not explain it to you."
"You just need to know that prohibiting you from being discharged early is a joint decision made by the hospital."
The man's teasing words had just finished.
Jessica's voice immediately sounded.
But her tone seemed to be full of anger and anxiety.
"Doctor! I told you, I voluntarily take all responsibilities!"
"Why don't you allow me to discharge myself from the hospital? My boss spent a lot of money to treat me here! Is this how you treat patients?"
"Haha, yes, we are the most expensive private medical center in New York. We focus on service and put customers first... But at the same time, it also means that we attract the rich and powerful upper class with a perfect reputation of extremely advanced medical methods.
I cannot allow a single medical flaw in my hands that could damage the reputation of the hospital or even the individual."
"Don't be angry, Ms. Jessica, this is not a personal discrimination against you, but a small way for the hospital to prevent problems in the bud."
The man's calm voice sounded again.
And his explanation obviously only resulted in Jessica's incomprehensible indignation.
At this time, Rorschach, who was standing outside the door and eavesdropped for a moment, shook his head slightly.
One of his palms gently grasped the handle of the ward door.
He slowly pushed the door open inwards.
"Jessica, I told you, don't fall into the emotional trap easily when you encounter any difficulties. The more you indulge your emotions, the more things will develop beyond your control."
Just inside a brightly lit private hospital room.
Rorschach has just stepped into this place,
His eyes first focused on the tall and thin man wearing a doctor's coat, leaning on the window sill of the ward with his arms around him.
Then, he said lightly to Jessica, who had been lying on the luxurious hospital bed with a sullen face.
"Uh...good afternoon, boss!"
Accompanied by Jessica's eyes suddenly widening and her tone of voice suddenly rising.
Rorschach slowly stepped forward with a polite smile subconsciously showing at the corner of his mouth.
Immediately afterwards, he and the tall, thin man who straightened his back and looked at him stretched out their palms in front of each other almost at the same time.
"Rorschach, Jessica's boss and teacher, maybe also her guardian."
"Stephen Starrange, neurosurgeon...not a doctor."
The palms of the two people touched slightly and then slowly let go, falling to their sides.
Rorschach narrowed his eyes and did not turn around to care about Jessica's situation.
He just stared at Strange's slender face and said with a smile:
"Nice to meet you...Doctor Strange (Doctor Strange)."
