Chapter 442 Remuneration
Monkey bought a newspaper at the newsstand at the corner of the street. When he saw the content published in the newspaper, his face lit up with joy, but in an instant he regained his composure, and the previous worry reappeared between his brows.
Now half of the tasks assigned by Tang Shuo have been completed, but the remaining half must wait until the evening.
If it weren't for these things, he would have definitely found a way to sneak into Carl's manor by now.
As promised, after Mason brought the slightly taller man with the broken arm out of jail, Monkey handed him a cash check and said, "This is your reward."
"Is the money mine?" The taller man with the one-armed took the check and asked in panic.
He had never received so much money before, and the way he made money this time was really too easy.
However, this was also because he was not aware of the danger hidden in this matter. You know, Carl's bodyguard was very likely to open fire at that time.
"Yes." The monkey nodded and replied.
Mason, who was standing next to the two men, looked at the check in their hands with some envy, slapped them on the back of the head and said, "Why don't you put it away quickly?"
The taller man with the broken arm immediately agreed, put the check in his pocket and said, "Then I'll be leaving first."
"Yeah." Monkey knew that the other party must be in a hurry to exchange the money, so he didn't say anything else.
Once the slightly taller man left, Mason spoke up, "Where are we going now?"
"Have a meal and take a rest first." The monkey said, "Take me to a place in the evening."
"Where?" Mason asked puzzledly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Mason realized that his question was beyond his scope. He immediately stopped talking and said, "I know a very famous restaurant, but I have never been there before."
The monkey didn't try to expose the other party. He nodded and said, "Let's go there."
…
Private historic house.
Seeing that the patient's physical characteristics had finally returned to normal, several doctors who were temporarily "invited" couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Although they were a temporary "hire," they included not only the lead surgeon, but also anesthesiologists and nurses. Given their skills, with the aid of instruments, 80 percent of surgical procedures could be performed.
An older doctor nodded to the other two, then walked to the window of the room and said to the black man sitting on the windowsill, "The patient's condition is temporarily under control."
"Temporarily?" The black man raised his eyebrows and asked in a bad tone.
The doctor hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded firmly and said, "The patient was delayed for too long, lost too much blood, and still has wounds that haven't healed yet. It's a miracle he's been saved. Now he can only rely on himself."
The black man nodded and said, "You wait."
After saying that, he jumped down from the windowsill, opened the door and walked out.
The older doctor smiled bitterly and shook his head at the others.
"Since we can't get out, let's think of something else." A slightly fat doctor walked to the sofa in the room and sat down, saying to the others.
"Billy, what happened to this guy?" A man who had just been assigned as anesthesiologist stared at Tang Shuo's exposed upper body and said to the man who had just spoken, puzzled, "Based on my experience, this guy has multiple fatal wounds on his body. How could he still be alive?"
Billy, the fat doctor, said, "This is normal. When we saw him yesterday, what was he like? I thought he could only hold out for ten minutes, but I didn't expect him to last until now."
The older doctor walked over to Tang Shuo, took a look, and said, "This is the most injured person I've ever seen."
"Professor Harvey, when do you think he can wake up?" Billy said to the older doctor.
The older doctor, Harvey, pondered for a moment, then shook his head. "It's hard to say. Our rescue efforts last night were completely standard. He's likely to have some sequelae, and there's a high probability he'll become a vegetable."
"So what should we do?"
Billy's expression was less composed than before. Harvey was arguably the best in his field, and his predictions were incredibly valuable. "Yesterday, these people threatened us that if the patient died, they'd bury him with him. If you say you end up in a vegetative state, will they try to make us vegetative too?"
“…”
The other people in the room were collectively speechless, thinking about their own thoughts silently.
When they were brought here yesterday, they resisted, but after being pointed at with guns, they all fell silent.
They were surprisingly consistent on whether the other side dared to shoot.
squeak……
The door was pushed open, and the black man who had just left walked back in. He said to them with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work. One person will stay to look after the patient, and everyone else can go home."
At this point, the black man's expression suddenly grew serious. "But I don't want anyone outside to know about this. Otherwise, the consequences will definitely not be what you want to see."
"No, no."
Several doctors who were 'invited' here shook their heads, and the fat man even said that he had forgotten about it.
But the black man said that someone had to stay behind to take care of the patient, and everyone was at a loss as to who to choose.
Who among them would be willing to stay in such a place?
Not only is it stressful and tiring, but your life may be in danger at any time.
"I've said before, if he dies, none of you will survive." The black man coughed and added, "This sentence is still valid!"
The people in the room looked pale, and after looking at each other, they began to discuss a solution to the problem.
After discussion, the few people finally reached a consensus.
The man who served as the anesthesiologist during the operation stayed behind temporarily, and Fat Billy came to replace him the next day, while Harvey was required to rush over whenever help was needed.
The two nurses who were temporarily hired also decided to use this method.
The black man watched them discuss the matter quietly. After they had agreed, he pulled out a stack of bank cards and handed one to each person. He then said, "Each card contains one million pounds, which should be enough to cover your medical expenses."
The old doctor Harvey immediately became nervous after hearing what the black man said.
This amount of money is not only enough for medical treatment, but even their lives are included in it.
He immediately returned the card and said, "I can't accept this money, but I won't tell anyone about this and I will continue to take care of the patient."
The others looked at each other in confusion. They knew that there was no need for the other party to joke with them about such things, and that the card in their hands should indeed have one million pounds.
Not everyone wants to return the money, but Harvey's actions have put them in a passive position.
"I've already given you the money. It's yours, you can do whatever you want with it." The black man sneered and said, "Do you want to return it now?"
Harvey understood what the other party meant, sighed deeply, and shook his head.
…………
The sky, which had been gloomy for nearly a week, finally saw a ray of sunshine. In the setting sun, the Wobru Church looked mysterious and solemn.
After Mason parked the car on the curb in front of the church, he said to the monkey in the passenger seat, "We're here."
"Um."
Monkey nodded and didn't rush to get out of the car after unbuckled his seat belt.
He pulled out a check from his pocket, handed it to Mason, and said, "You don't have to follow me anymore. This check is good for three hundred thousand pounds, which is your payment for the past two days."
Monkey had actually been planning to give this money to Mason for a long time. The other party had been working hard with him for the past two days and was fully worthy of the reward.
Mason's heart was beating wildly, and he reached out to take the check with a trembling hand. Only now did he understand what the tall one-armed man felt in the morning.
The monkey smiled at the other person, opened the car door and walked out of the car.
Mason finally realized his mistake and quickly opened the car door, saying to the monkey's back, "Thank you!"
The monkey looked back at Mason, nodded, and strode forward.
