Chapter 65 Death Control
Sharp-eyed netizens noticed that Wu Long's eyelashes moved on the operating table.
This was no small matter. Could he still be alive? Some said it was a corpse's reflex, but I'd never seen anyone blink.
Soon, professionals came to the rescue and explained that in order to avoid various reflexes, anesthesia is usually injected into the body before the organ removal operation to paralyze the nerves that are not yet completely dead.
Scared netizens: Could it be... haunted?
The organ theft case has yet to be concluded, but the suspected mysterious intrusion at the hospital's operating room is big news.
As word spread, many people left the livestream, fearing being haunted by the online spooky. But even more curious viewers flocked in. Some even started recording the video and stepped away from their computers, preserving evidence without risking harm.
The popularity of the live broadcast room quickly reached the top 3 of the real-time list.
Just as this news entered the risk control AI system of Deshi Hospital, the heart removal had just been completed. The bright red human flesh fruit was held in the doctor's white gloves and was about to be transferred to a storage box.
Netizens didn't dare to look away for even a second.
At the same time, something strange happened on the operating table.
The corpse, which had been lying quietly, suddenly sat up slowly. The assistants and nurses around were shocked. It was difficult for the human brain to process such abnormal information, and everyone froze.
Wu Long's eyes were lifeless, and he was obviously dead. His chest was open, and the place where his heart should be was empty.
Even someone who knows nothing about medicine can see that this is definitely a corpse.
Wu Long's body slowly raised one arm, extended his index finger, and pointed at the surgeon who was holding his heart.
That kind of action, that kind of picture, is so impactful that it makes people want to faint.
It's like a silent, powerful accusation that transcends life and death.
He didn't volunteer, he never agreed to donate his heart!
This is a complete and utter theft!
The sound of instruments falling over could be heard in the operating room one after another. The medical staff were terrified. Some of them might know the inside story of organ transplantation, but no one could bear to hear that the corpse that had just been dissected "came back to life"!
Netizens were stunned behind the screen, and after a few seconds of silence, someone finally remembered the title of this live broadcast room -
A true record of stealing organs from deceased patients.
The comment section was boiling.
Netizen 4: Is this true? Although I don't know why the corpse sat up, it seems like he is really accusing the hospital and identifying the murderer.
Netizen 5: My Newton, my Einstein, my materialistic heart... Why do I feel like this is just a gimmick? Maybe the corpse and the operating staff will stand up together to say goodbye and reveal the secret.
Netizen 6: It could be an AI-generated image, or the corpse could be a robot. This is a simulated medical experiment.
Scared netizens: Didn't you see the previous one just now? The identity of the body has been revealed. He just died in an accident today. It's a real person.
Netizen 7: I have connections in Lucheng Orange, let me check it out, follow me and wait for me to post, and start networking!
Just as everyone was discussing it, the live broadcast room suddenly went dark, and a message appeared: "This live broadcast is suspected of violating regulations and has been banned by the administrator. Rectification is in progress..."
The emotions first fell and then rose, like a broken dam. This live broadcast room was closed, and thousands of live broadcast rooms and discussion threads appeared.
Countless screenshots and screen recordings were circulated. It was useless to cover up the Internet because they were transcribed into various coded abbreviations like intelligence cryptography, and soon spread across various large and small online platforms.
At the same time, this incident attracted the attention of the Internet police, and the relevant information was directly conveyed to the Lucheng Police Station.
Tu Lanxun had no time to follow up on public opinion because they were discovered!
Deshi Hospital's risk control response was faster than she had imagined. They almost immediately blocked the live broadcast room, and then began to investigate the specific location of their computer based on the network IP.
Fortunately, the computer ghost set up an anti-tracking program in the middle, and it takes time to crack it.
After Tu Lanxun asked N to save the relevant materials, he directly contacted Mikhail.
Mikhail's voice was low and squeezed: "We are returning. The camera can't be used anymore. They are already opening the vent cover."
Tu Lanxun: "How is Wulong?"
She was confused because of her concern. Wu Long's soul core was stored in the back of her hand. There was no problem at the moment, but Wu Long had to bear the most thrilling part of the live broadcast.
"Great, there's no time to talk anymore, there are ghosts chasing us. Let's meet at point B." After saying this, Mikhail hurriedly cut off the communication.
Tu Lanxun drove the car to point B - the other side of Green Park, and began to wait anxiously.
One minute, two minutes...
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when Mikhail appeared from the shadows with Wu Long.
The silver-gray Jetta sped away in the night. Instead of returning directly to the convenience store, it drove out of the city in another direction, exited the highway at an intersection where the surveillance camera was under maintenance, and then circled back to the development zone.
Food and snacks were placed on the table and they held an emergency meeting.
Wu Long munched on tomato-flavored potato chips. "Well, did I perform well?"
Liu Maosheng wanted to ask but didn't dare. He hesitated for a long time before saying, "How does it feel to be back in your own body?"
Wu Long shook his head. "Not at all. It's completely different from when I was alive. When I was alive, I had no feeling for my body. I could move my arms and legs as I was told. But after I died, I felt... I felt..."
"It feels like I'm wearing a doll's shell! And the shell is made of iron, rusty iron."
Under the organization and leadership of Liu Maosheng, Du Ziyuan was urgently taken back to the convenience store. Tu Lanxun was really worried about her continuing to hide outside.
Looking at the room full of ghosts, Du Ziyuan almost fainted several times, but forced himself to recover and smiled palely: "It's okay, I've even worked a 72-hour forced march without overtime pay, so ghosts are nothing." After all, ghosts won't make people work overtime.
The computer ghost has already escaped from the firewall, and the miniature cameras and laptops they used are now thrown into trash cans near the hospital and farmland.
The computer ghost was crunching data. Regarding the current state of online public opinion, she said, "We've been on the top of trending searches three times, and were suppressed three times. The first two times were probably caused by Deshi, and the third time was done by the authorities."
"Why?"
"After the first two trending searches were removed, related discussions were strictly blocked for a period of time, and even some influential V accounts were banned. However, the third time, the measures were relatively mild. They didn't prohibit netizens from spreading the news privately. They just covered it up publicly, and at most blocked the account, but didn't ban it."
Frankly speaking, the person behind the third incident didn't want the news to spread too widely, but it was far from the point of being desperate.
Tu Lanxun suddenly felt a little hope. Since Captain Li and the female police officer had investigated the scene at the North Suburbs Branch, combined with what happened tonight, they would definitely not miss any suspicious points.
Perhaps they were not as helpless as they had thought.
"Ms. Du, please think about whether you want to leave Lucheng and return to your hometown, or stay here first and make a long-term plan." Tu Lanxun said.
Both paths have their pros and cons. Leaving Lucheng may allow him to escape Deshi's pursuit, but he will also be out of the protection of the convenience store, and he might "die" in a corner of his hometown one day.
If she stayed in the convenience store, Du Ziyuan would not be able to go out to work. Even if Tu Lanxun didn't mind supporting her, she would not be comfortable.
Seeing Du Ziyuan struggling, Tu Lanxun said, "You can think about it for a few more days. Maybe this matter will end soon. At worst, if the police intervene, you can go directly to the police station to seek protection." The prerequisite is to keep the convenience store completely confidential.
Du Ziyuan said, "Okay, let me think about it."
Bai Xiaoju took Du Ziyuan's hand and accompanied her to find an empty house that no one had ever bought, right across from the convenience store. Perhaps Bai Xiaoju's outspokenness gave her some sense of security, and she forced a smile.
Next up is Mikhail.
According to the agreement between Tu Lanxun, N, and him, now that Deshi's affair has been thoroughly exposed and the three potential victims have been identified, Mikhail should release the souls within him.
Mikhail yawned, reached for the chocolate stick cookies, opened a package, and said, "Okay, let me rest for a while."
Just as Tu Lanxun frowned and was about to continue pushing Mikhail, his cell phone suddenly rang.
"Hello, is this Miss Lan? Yes, it's me. We'd like to recommend a logistics worker to you. He's volunteered to help you in the development zone."
"What?" Tu Lanxun didn't dare to believe it for a moment.
The voice on the other end sounded familiar. It was the HR representative from the small logistics company I'd contacted before. The woman said, "This recommendation is personal. Our boss just gave us a heads-up. This employee has worked for us for a few days and is still on probation. He's willing to switch over and help you."
Tu Lanxun asked a few questions, and the HR lady told her that the man was a male employee in his thirties who could drive, was hardworking and very reliable.
After hearing his leader mention the delivery business in the development zone - a business that no one dared to take - this employee volunteered. However, because he was still in the probation period, the logistics company was worried about his personal safety, so they recommended him to Tu Lanxun first.
If the recommendation is successful, the employee will go through the separation process with the probation period interrupted. The company is afraid that if he encounters problems in the future, it will cost a lot of money.
In other words, the male employee gave up his current job to work for Tulanxun. The company played a role in the recommendation.
Tu Lanxun was suspicious: "Can you give me a little more details? What's the employee's name? What's his previous experience?"
Could it be that they were sent by Deshi specifically to snipe them accurately?
She put the phone on the line and typed something to the computer ghost, so that the other party would start checking the employee's background as soon as she heard it.
The HR lady was a little impatient, but still said, "This employee has a high level of education and no previous logistics experience, but he's a really nice person."
The young lady added: "His name is Tang Weining."
