Chapter 119: Cheated Us
Yao Leng's expression was serious and earnest. He must have considered this matter over and over again before bringing it up.
Jiang He was infected by his emotions, so he also thought seriously, closed his eyes and felt the restlessness in his body.
Perhaps it was because the estrus period of humans was slightly different from that of animals. Jiang He did feel unwell, was very irritable, more aggressive than usual, and more easily angered, but he did not reach the stage of dementia.
After she closed her eyes, her expression was extremely solemn. Yao Leng became even more dignified, and sweat oozed out of his palms.
This must have been a huge source of worry for her. Yao Leng had been distracted these past few days while out and about, trying to find a suitable partner for her. He wasn't entirely sure what kind of man Jiang He liked, and he couldn't imagine her considering him a sexual partner. But this matter had to be addressed. She was a rather self-sufficient person, and he was happy to be able to share her concerns and resolve her difficulties.
"Not for now. It won't affect my sanity much." At most, I'll become more brutal, but on a planet like A62, brutality is better. Jiang He opened his eyes and looked at Yao Leng, "Can you smell the scent emanating from me? Will it affect you?"
Yao Leng was a little surprised that Jiang He would ask this. It was obvious that other people couldn't smell the scent emanating from her. He shook his head: "No."
"The distortions can." Jiang He was confused: "Why can those spliced distortions smell?"
Yao Leng didn't quite understand this, but there was one person among them who knew more about distorted objects.
When going downstairs to eat, Jiang He asked Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi thought for a moment and said, "Artificially bred mutants have undergone genetic modification, making them more sensitive than ordinary mutants. They might be able to smell you. Deformed creatures already have a more developed sense of taste than humans, so genetically modified mutants must have a stronger sense."
Jiang He understood, but Zhang Yi asked worriedly, "If these artificially deformed creatures can smell you, they will definitely come to you regardless of everything. What should we do?"
When everyone heard this, they immediately became worried about Jiang He.
Jiang He was eating noodles in his bowl with his head down. Hearing this, he said without even looking up, "If you come, I'll beat you to death."
Especially calm and decisive.
Everyone's mind flashed to the image of Jiang He standing on the arena in the middle of a pile of corpses, covered in blood, like a god of death.
Well, when our boss says this, he is not showing off or bragging, he is telling the truth.
This time, no one planned to alarm the security of R&F Hospital. At around 8 o'clock in the evening, they walked into the hospital with the meteor pot on their heads.
Perhaps because it was not the right time, they did not encounter the attack of the deformed bats.
There are not many doctors and security guards in R&F Hospital at this time.
The lights in the hall were a little dim, and Jiang He found that the hospital looked much quieter than the last time he came.
Zhang Yi muttered to himself, "Places like hospitals are bustling during the day and dead at night. There's a saying in my hometown: if you go to the hospital at night and someone calls you from behind, you must not answer..."
Lei Zi: "What? If I say yes, I'll be your grandson?"
"That's not the case. We're quite superstitious back home. We believe that places like hospitals are haunted by ghosts after sunset. If a ghost calls you, and you answer, it will be resurrected through your body."
Lei Zi didn't understand this statement and said blankly: "Then aren't there more ghosts who died unjustly in your laboratory?"
Zhang Yi: ...This topic is really not suitable to continue discussing.
Changzi: "Maybe the people in the lab are too cruel, so the ghosts are afraid to live."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone called out from behind: "Hey, wait a minute!"
Everyone: ???
Almost subconsciously, everyone rushed forward quickly, holding up the meteor pot.
Jiang He, who was walking in front, was surrounded by his teammates and pushed forward.
"Wait for me, wait for me, don't leave me..."
The strange voice was faint and weak, like a ghost whispering to the devil beside your ear.
Everyone ran faster with the pot on their shoulders.
As Lei Zi ran away, he didn't forget to say to Zhang Yi beside him: "It seems that the saying in your hometown also applies to Planet A62."
Jiang He asked in confusion: "Why are you running so fast?"
"If we run too slowly, ghosts will possess our bodies and be reborn." After Zhang Yi was confirmed by Lei Zi, he felt more confident in talking about such metaphysical matters. "If we run faster, we won't be caught up by ghosts."
Jiang He: "But the other party is a security guard from Fuli Hospital, not a ghost."
Everyone: ???
No, there are meteor pots above their heads, how can anyone see them?
"What does he want from us?"
"I'm so hungry, I'm so hungry, do you have any food?"
Everyone: ...
They turned around and found that the security guard following them looked familiar. They had dealt with him before and he was called "Captain" by other security guards.
The security captain was not wearing a security uniform tonight. He was wearing a hospital gown with the front of the clothes cut off, revealing his chest and belly.
Everyone was shocked to find that the flesh on the security captain's chest had been cut off and replaced with mechanical components, and the flesh on his stomach had been cut off, and what was filled inside was not intestines, but tumors the size of cicada pupae.
The security captain had a silver metal support frame around his neck, which forced him to raise his head high and not lower it, so he couldn't see his chest and stomach at all.
He looked at everyone with empty eyes and begged: "Please give me something to eat, I'm so hungry."
The weak voice sounded like someone who had not eaten for many days and was about to die.
Zhang Yi subconsciously moved to hide behind Jiang He and whispered to everyone, "He was turned into a human petri dish by the doctor. The deformed creatures grown in the human petri dish are smarter and more powerful than those grown in the petri dish."
The security captain was still weakly crying out for food. Zhang Yi, fearing that everyone would take pity on him and go over to feed him, quickly added, "What this aberration's nurse craves most is human flesh and blood, because the aberrations within him are feeding on his flesh and blood as they continue to grow."
When the others heard this, they silently took two steps back and kept their distance from the security captain.
Jiang He stared at the security captain intently, thinking back to the first time she entered the Blue Silver Manor, when Lan Hu became pregnant with Ji Feng and gave birth to him. Was it an accident? Or was it intentional?
She walked out of the meteor pot, and the magma fire in her hand shot out like a thin silk thread, like a long needle, piercing all the densely packed black cocoons in the security captain's stomach.
The destructive power of magma fire is generally strong, but the flame is as thin as a needle. The moment it passes through the cocoon, the cocoon is completely burned to ashes.
For the first time, she tried to precisely control the burning range of the lava fire, and burned all the cocoons in the security captain's stomach without hurting him.
A long tentacle stretched out and removed the metal support frame on the security captain's neck. Zhang Yi tremblingly warned, "Baba, be careful or he might attack you."
Upon hearing this, Yao Leng and the others immediately raised the Meteor Pot and caged Jiang He underneath.
The security guard looked at his chest filled with mechanical components and his empty abdomen, muttering in confusion: "Where are my internal organs? My intestines, where are my intestines?"
No one responded to him. The expression on his face was too helpless and dazed. He looked around, trying to find his own way.
It wasn't until he saw the traffic light above the operating room in front of him that his memory of being pushed into the operating room came back to him.
"Manager, the manager said that my ability has been upgraded. He said that I performed very well and the higher-ups are rewarding me with a new ability."
The sadness and shock on his face silently asked: How could this happen? Why didn't he wake up with his new abilities, but instead became this half-human, half-ghost appearance?
Zhang Yi whispered, "The surgery to combine your abilities must have failed. The person who performed the surgery on you didn't want to waste your body, so they simply used your waste to turn it into a culture dish for the deformed creatures."
At Jiang He's instruction, Mr. Shadow brought a few bottles of liquid from the pharmacy. Jiang He inserted the IV into the side of the security captain's neck and handed him the bracket with the liquid bottles hanging on it. "This will provide some nutrition to your body."
The security captain recognized these liquid bottles. They were very expensive and sold at exorbitant prices in R&F Hospital. His first thought was that he couldn't afford them, but he immediately thought of his current appearance and tightly grasped the infusion stand handed to him by Jiang He.
Although his body was riddled with wounds, he still wanted to live.
He asked Jiang He blankly: "Will I die?"
"Maybe." Jiang He said, "But I'm still alive."
There was no trace of compassion on her face, her eyes were extremely cold, and her voice was calm without any fluctuation. The security captain's fear and confusion about death were infected by her domineering indifference, and he strangely accepted the current situation. The panic slowly subsided, and the liquid entered his body, and the hunger and emptiness were relieved a lot.
He knew that these people repeatedly broke into Fuli Hospital, and it was definitely not for fun. Now, his life was in their hands. He said to Jiang He, "Thank you. I, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Yes." Jiang He said, "You are very useful to us. We need you to help us find the antidote."
Security guards are actually marginal figures in the hospital. They don't understand the professional knowledge of doctors, nor do they know about the spliced and distorted objects in the third underground floor of R&F Hospital.
But doctors only know the area they are responsible for and concentrate on studying their own fields, while security guards walk around the building every day and have to keep their eyes open everywhere.
Only security guards know every corner and passage of R&F Hospital and which areas in the hospital are not allowed to be entered by outsiders.
Changzi curiously asked the security guard leading the way, "How long did you work at Fuli Hospital before you became the team leader?"
"One year," the security captain said. "Many security guards died while undergoing special surgery to upgrade their abilities. I didn't meet the requirements initially, so my applications were rejected many times."
"The security guard's death rate is so high?" Lei Zi was shocked. "Then why do you still want to perform this kind of surgery?"
Security Captain: "You can become stronger."
On Planet A62, everyone wanted to become stronger. Many people applied for security guard positions at Fuli Hospital because they could upgrade their special abilities. Even though the surgery had a very high mortality rate, many people were vying for admission.
These four words almost express everyone's thoughts. Only the strong can survive in such a hellish place.
The security captain murmured, "I've been working so hard for this opportunity. I'm always the first one to apply every week, and finally got this chance. But I didn't expect my physical condition to be so poor that I couldn't make it through the surgery."
Zhang Yi, "Maybe it's not that you're in poor health, but that you're in excellent health. They're using your body as a breeding ground."
Yao Leng glanced at Zhang Yi, and Zhang Yi silently shut his mouth.
"You're right." The security captain looked down at his stomach and chest. "That must be it."
He is very confident about his body.
With the security captain leading the way, Jiang He and his companions searched all the suspicious places in R&F Hospital.
The security captain said, "Actually, the most suspicious place is the third underground floor. However, a few days ago, the third underground floor caught fire for some unknown reason. Now it's empty."
Changzi: "Oh, it's on fire. Then we won't go."
The call went so smoothly that the security captain was stunned. He suddenly remembered that the fire on the third underground floor happened to be on the night when these people attacked the hospital.
He asked, "Did you set the fire on the third basement floor? What was there?"
"I don't know." Changzi shook his head. "We were too late. The fire was too big and we couldn't get in."
He was telling the truth, they really didn't see anything.
But the security captain didn't believe it and gave him a look that said "I understand."
They searched all the suspicious places, even the darkroom in the dean's office. There was a big bed in the darkroom with a female spliced and distorted creature locked on it. There were also many jaw-dropping sex toys on the walls of the darkroom.
Before anyone could say anything, Yao Leng shot out an ice arrow, killing the spliced and deformed creature on the bed.
Walking out of the dean's dark room, the security captain was a little confused. "We've searched everywhere."
"There must be other places," Changzi explained to him seriously. "The places we just searched are all places you know. Fuli Hospital is so big, there must be some places you don't know about. For example, some doctors are always sneaking around, or some senior executives in the hospital are shifty and feel guilty when you see them."
The security captain thought about it carefully and said, "I once met Dr. Jing while waiting for the elevator. We reached the fourth floor, but he refused to get off the elevator."
Yao Leng: "Fuli Hospital only has four floors. Is there a button for the fifth floor in the elevator?"
The security captain shook his head. "No, the hospital has four floors at the top. I was standing outside the elevator and saw the floor display go blank for a moment after it closed. When I looked again, it showed we were on the first floor. It's strange, considering Dr. Jing and I clearly got on the elevator together from the first floor."
As a security guard, he had no right to question the doctor, but the scene was so strange that he still remembers it to this day.
Of course, this was actually a trivial matter. The security captain continued to think, "And Dr. Reid, he always goes to the back corridor..."
Before he could finish his words, Jiang He said, "Go to the elevator."
The training camp seems to have only seven floors, but in fact it has nine floors. The underground of the training camp is all laboratories, and the underground of R&F Hospital is no less. I believe that the roof of R&F Hospital is more than just a roof.
"Only hospital staff can use the elevator with a card." The security captain said, "My card was taken away before the operation."
Lei Zi said: "It's okay, go and take a look, you don't have to go in."
When they got to the elevator, Jiang He punched the panel where the card swipe button was displayed, smashing it to pieces. When the alarm sounded, her thin tentacles deftly slipped into the gap in the panel. Xiao A hacked into the system, and the elevator opened the next moment.
The shrill alarm startled the sleeping deformed bats, and they rushed towards Jiang He and his men like a black tide.
Everyone rushed towards the elevator car, and just as the deformed bats pounced, the elevator door closed.
Lei Zi was surprised and said, "There really isn't a fifth-floor button in the elevator. Should we climb to the top of the car to check?"
This is a good idea. When the car reaches the fourth floor, climb up from the top of the car. If there is a way, it must be the fifth floor.
Jiang He had a better idea. Xiao A hacked into the elevator system, and the elevator automatically ran to the fifth floor without pressing any buttons.
The security captain asked Jiang He, "Is there really a fifth floor, Baba? Can the things inside save me?"
Like everyone else, he called Jiang He Baba.
Jiang He shook his head: "I don't know."
No one knows what's inside until we reach the fifth floor.
Just as she had never imagined that there would be a "paradise" underground in the hospital.
The elevator ran silently for a moment and then paused. The door of the car slowly opened. Everyone subconsciously looked outside. Although they were alert, they were more curious.
When everyone saw what they saw, their pupils shrank in shock.
Yao Leng murmured, "There's no antidote. Tank deceived us."
