Chapter 529: Ten thousand times ten thousand equals?(1/2)

"They are acquaintances after all, and I have just arrived in the outer city. Yakumo is very helpful to me. I heard that she has a seriously injured and comatose sister who has been receiving medical treatment at your place, so I thought of coming over to see if there is anything I can do to help.

The place."

Li Zheng explained casually that he had never been an ungrateful person. Yakumo kindly took him around and saw that he had health problems and took the initiative to send him over for a physical examination.

Although Yakumo was subjectively doing it for the intermediary fee, Li Zheng could earn 300,000 just by selling something casually. Compared with that, the medical examination fee of 20 white crystal coins was just like a joke.

Li Zheng didn't believe that Yakumo didn't deal with it and asked the doctor to help him reduce the medical examination fee.

This was also the main reason why Yakumo had just openly embezzled 3,300 white crystal coins from him, but he didn't insist on asking for it.

"It's rare that you have such a heart." The doctor said seriously: "Then come with me."

Then Li Zheng followed the doctor and entered the side door he had gone to during the physical examination.

When he got here, the doctor stopped and asked Li Zheng to stand a little further away. He pressed lightly on the edge of the door and lit up a light screen.

Switch the language, and the doctor speaks a series of instructions to the little man on the light screen.

Immediately afterwards, Li Zheng felt a slight vibration under his feet, and his heart was shocked.

"This...such a big space is actually an elevator?!"

It turns out that when I had my previous physical examination, I actually did it in an elevator?!

But having said that, it would cost a lot of money to rebuild such a large elevator in the outer city, right?

Not to mention there are so many medical devices with different functions, each of which has a "valuable" label in the information column displayed by Laopu.

The terrifying financial resources of doctors are simply unmatched.

"What's wrong? Are you surprised?"

While waiting, the doctor chuckled and said: "Simple treatments can be completed up here. The patients below all have difficult and complicated diseases that are difficult to solve so far. They generally need a quiet environment, otherwise it will cause unnecessary trouble."

.”

Boom!

Just as he said that, he stepped lightly and the elevator had stopped.

"arrive."

The doctor did not rush to open the door, but warned Li Zheng and Kota: "You are not allowed to make any noise when you go in later, do you understand?"

"Understood!" Li Zheng and Kota nodded together.

The doctor then opened the door he came in from. At this time, the scene behind the door had completely changed, and what appeared in front of him was a deep corridor.

There is a metal door at regular intervals on both sides of the corridor. The design of the door is not subtle. Looking at the huge turntable outside, you can tell that it is controlled by an ancient mechanical mechanism.

"Almost all the patients I receive here have the same disease. The cause of the disease is not clear yet, but it is speculated to be related to the final catastrophe."

The doctor controlled his voice to a very low decibel, introduced Li Zheng, and led them inside.

"These patients have a common characteristic, that is, they look like ordinary people when they are sent, but they will not wake up no matter how stimulated by the outside world.

So I can only use the life support system to keep their bodies alive so that they will not die of thirst or starvation."

Arriving at a ward, the doctor opened the observation window and let Li Zheng see for himself.

The interior of the ward is about eighty square meters, and except for a medical bed, almost all the space is occupied by other equipment.

The largest piece of equipment has a transparent tank with a substance similar to nutrient solution rippling inside.

From the doctor's description, Li Zheng originally thought that these patients were similar to vegetative people on earth.

However, when Li Zheng saw it with his own eyes, the hint given by the Eye of Preles was different.

[Name: Unknown

Race: unknown

Strength: unknown

Gender: unknown

Status: Sub-health (organs have been slightly damaged due to not eating normally for a long time)

Description: There is an unknown secret hidden under the seemingly normal appearance. Do you think he is a ‘vegetative state’?

Then you are wrong. Vegetative people can still maintain weak brain waves, and some patients can even respond to external stimuli.

And they are just like dead, unable to receive any brain waves, and only their bodies strangely maintain physiological functions.】

"This is the initial state. In addition to maintaining the body's functions, no treatment methods are used."

The doctor closed the observation window and led Li Zheng to another ward.

"This person went through preliminary treatment, but something went wrong, and he became like this."

Li Zheng opened the observation window and saw a stalwart man with a jackal's head sitting in the ward. He behaved like a newborn child and could only crawl on the open ground. He opened and closed his mouth without knowing what he was saying.

"Is this...intellectual deterioration?" Li Zheng frowned.

The Eye of Prells displays: [Status Detection...]

After a while, the information was refreshed and changed to: [Target is too strong, detection failed!]

This shows that the original strength of the jackal in the ward is at least on the same level as Yakumo, and even if it is not as good as him, it will not be much different.

"Yes, but it's not the same." The doctor closed the observation window and sighed: "This guy was an old friend of mine before. I watched him climb up from the bottom, and finally obtained a public official status from several major races.

At that time, his strength was ranked 97th in Block 902. Unexpectedly, shortly after returning from a terminal mission, he fell into an unconscious state, and now he has become like this."

"I gave him some stimulating therapy to try to awaken his previous memories and get his brain working again. But... the result was like this, it was like he was a different person."

Walking away from here, the doctor took the two of them and continued deeper.

In the next room, the observation window opened. Li Zheng looked in and was stunned for a moment.

"Kota?"

The life in the ward is of the same race as Kota, but judging from the size, she is a woman.

Or...female.

When Kota heard his boss calling him, he moved forward and suddenly saw the figure in the ward, and his whole body froze on the spot.

After watching for a while, he became emotional and lay on the observation window with red eyes and tears in his eyes: "Mom... this is my mother! Why is my mother here? She... I... we always thought she was with

Dad is dead..."

This heartless tiger brother, who Li Zheng had always thought was not very smart, trembled all over after seeing his mother, and tears fell down the hair on his face.

If he hadn't remembered the doctor's advice and didn't dare to make any noise, he would have burst into tears by now.

"You said this is your mother?" The doctor suddenly pushed up his glasses, and a white light flashed on the lenses: "That's great, she has been here with me... Well, let's say at least seven or eight years, she has never been there.

Find your family to pay for the medical expenses. Since you are here, settle the payment with me later."

"I will give you any amount of money!" Kota wiped his tears and said with a choked voice: "As long as my mother can live in good health, I will risk my life to earn enough medical expenses for her!"

"Don't speak too early. All the expenses over the years have added up to nearly 10,000 red crystal coins. Can you afford it?" The doctor pulled Cota away and closed the observation window to prevent Cota from getting too excited and making a big fuss.

movement.

"One... ten thousand red crystal coins?" Cota was briefly stunned by the price: "Ten thousand white crystal coins can be exchanged for one red crystal coin, so I want to earn..."

He counted on his fingers for a long time, but couldn't count how many white crystal coins he had to pay.

"One billion." Li Zheng couldn't bear to remind him, because in his opinion, the price was outrageous. No wonder Yakumo seemed to have fallen in love with money.

"One billion..."

When Kota heard this number, he even forgot about his sadness. When he was so old, he and his two younger brothers combined had never seen so much money.

Not to mention one billion, when he had the most funds, he never exceeded 50,000 white crystal coins, and he couldn't even exchange for one red crystal coin.

One billion white crystal coins, even if the three brothers were sold, they wouldn't even make 1%.

Li Zheng asked the doctor: "Even Kota, a son, doesn't know that his mother is here. Where is your patient admitted?"

"Do you suspect that I secretly caught innocent people to block experimental subjects in order to study this disease?" The doctor glanced at him: "This Tagore patient was sent from Block 950. At that time, I just started to be exposed to this disease.

He took her in temporarily.

According to the member of the law enforcement team who sent her here, they found her while on a mission in the wilderness.

She was not the only one present at that time, there were many people of different races who were torn to pieces. She was one of the three survivors. The other two were members of Block 835, so they were not accepted by me."

"Wait a minute..." Kota finally came to his senses and asked, "Did you just say that everyone else at the scene was torn to pieces?"

For a moment, the expression on his face became extremely complicated.

I don’t know if I’m feeling happy or feeling even more sad.

"So, my dad is dead?" Kota murmured softly.

Seeing him like that, Li Zheng comforted him: "You have to express your condolences. At least you who thought your parents were dead now have a mother, right?"

"Yes, I have a mother again..." Kota sighed and said, "It doesn't matter if my father is dead, but if my father is alive, the three of us brothers cannot afford the medical expenses for two people."

Li Zheng: "..."
To be continued...
