Chapter 120: Project Eagle (1)
Porter was Caucasian with a traditional Caucasian face, as well as a high nose and blue eyes.
Because his father was a doctor in the hospital of District 3 and had a good friendship with the officials of District 3, Porter, who had only learned a little from medical school, easily established a clinic at the mouth of Lane 9 in District 3.
The people who come to him to see a doctor are poor people who can't afford to pay the expensive consultation fees in the hospital, so he doesn't take the doctor seriously, sometimes he is lucky and cured, he accepts the money, sometimes he is unlucky, he dies, he gives the patient's family a certificate of illness and death, and does not charge the consultation fee, these people will be grateful!
He believes that he is kinder than most private doctors, and many clinics treat people who die, not only irresponsible, but also want them to issue death certificates, and also require the families of the deceased to pay a large amount of money.
Otherwise, without proof of illness, the deceased cannot be proven to have died of illness, and these family members will face jail time!
Lowe's mother, as well as Robb's three wives before her mom married Rob, all died in Potter's clinic.
Rob won't allow Lowe to take Luo Xiaocao to the hospital, but it won't stop him from taking him to try his luck with Potter.
At least at Potter's clinic, the young son can't be saved, and Potter won't ask him for money!
Potter was already closed when Lowe arrived, and he closed early in the winter.
There are few customers who come to see the doctor on a snowy day, and he prefers his warm bedding to the cold examination room.
Lowe slammed his thick palm on the door of the clinic, and at first Potter pretended not to hear and stuffed his head under the covers, but after a long while, Lowe did not stop.
Ears finally couldn't stand Potter anymore, so he could only get up from the bed with an angry face, open the door curtain, and roar angrily: "Don't you know how to read!
"I'm sorry Mr. Potter, but my brother is dying, please save him!"
Luo Wei was so anxious that he had a handful of snot and tears, and the tears and snot were frozen into icicles, making it very difficult for him to even open his eyes.
"Oh, it's you. ”
Potter knew Lowe, or his father, Rob, to be exact, because of the death of four women in their family, and Potter was impressed.
Opening the door and letting in the frozen and stiff Lowe, with the snowflakes blowing in the cold room, Potter immediately closed the door, turned on the light, put on his glasses, and asked in a somewhat impatient tone: "Tell me, what's wrong with you." ”
Unexpectedly, Luo Wei opened his clothes, revealing Wen Shu who was warmed by him with his chest, he carefully wrapped the clothes on Wen Shu's body carefully, and pleaded: "Doctor Potter, my brother has a fever, please show him!"
"You have a brother!" said Potter, who was a little surprised, thinking that after the death of his four wives, Rob would not marry another wife.
After all, in the current world, it is not cost-effective to raise a woman who does not have much strength.
He put on gloves, turned on the air conditioner, and then took out Wen Shu, who was wrapped in clothes, touched his forehead, took a thermometer to measure his temperature, and then broke her eyes, and said in surprise: "Burned like this, he is not dead, this kid has a big life." ”
As he spoke, he took out a hanging bottle from the pharmacy, and the potion in the hanging bottle was specially used to treat fever, as for whether it was useful for babies, it depended on the child's creation.
Before hitting the hanging bottle, Potter stretched out his hand towards Lowe, who immediately understood, took out ten bibbar coins from his pocket, and said dryly with a red face: "I'm sorry Mr. Potter, this is all I have......"
The medical expenses of the clinic are very expensive, just a little lower than the hospital, and ten bibas is just enough for the cost price of the potion.
Potter looked at Luo Wei, who was frozen like a popsicle, and then looked at Wen Shu who was dying, sighed, didn't say anything at all, took the money, and continued to give Wen Shu an injection.
Wen Shu was groggy, and suddenly felt a tingling pain in her forehead, followed by a cold liquid slowly infused into her veins.
Out of instinct for life, Wen Shu's body immediately began to frantically absorb the medicinal power in the potion, and gradually, she found that her head was not so dizzy.
Looking at Wen Shu, who gradually returned to his normal complexion, Potter couldn't help but be amazed, and said to Luo Wei, who was anxious on the side: "Your brother's willpower is very strong, at least stronger than that of ordinary babies, cultivate it well, maybe he will become a flying eagle in the future." ”
The Eagles are the name given to psychic warriors by the humans of Pandora, who control cosmic monsters through psychic power and duel in gladiatorial arenas.
Becoming an eagle is the fastest way for people at the bottom of the slum to get out of poverty.
Once a person passes the mental power test and becomes a flying eagle in their area, they are eligible to go to Abix, the city that belongs to the superior people hanging in the sky, to compete in the competition.
Every year, Poor District 12 sends a team to participate in the Eagle Flyer Competition, and whoever wins the first place will sign a contract with the Eagle Flyer Breeding Company and become a top class with a job!
Of course, Potter didn't really think that Wen Shu had this potential, he just said casually, like a joke, but Luo Wei listened seriously, and secretly decided in his heart that no matter what, he would find a way to train his younger brother to be a Flying Eagle.
Once you become a flying eagle, you can take your family to the slum immediately!
When it was dawn the next day, Wen Shu finally returned to his normal body temperature, and the wind and snow outside finally stopped.
After being warned by Potter not to feed his brother rice porridge again, Luo Wei hurriedly carried Wen Shu home.
He still has to go to work today, but he can't go back late.
When he got home, Rob was in a good mood when he saw his son who was jumping around, and Wen Shu, who seemed to be in a much better situation, especially after Lowe conveyed Potter's words, Rob's eyes lit up, and he rarely took out two bibas from his pocket and handed them to Lowe:
"When I came back from work, I went to the supermarket to buy a can of milk powder. ”
The men in the family had to go to work during the day, and Wen Shu was handed over by Rob to the care of a dark-skinned middle-aged woman, named Luna, a widow who lived by helping the men who had lost their wives to look after the children, and although the pay was pitiful, but she just wouldn't starve.
Luna's business has been bad lately, and the family fosters a baby Wenshu during the day.
Wen Shu was very well-behaved, not noisy or noisy, so she put her in the cradle next to the sofa, and she turned on the TV and started watching TV.
At this time, the TV channel was playing an advertisement about the Eagle: "Do you want to change your life, do you want to get rid of poverty, do you want to become a superhero who controls the monster of the universe and expands the territory of Pandora, if you have it, please come and sign up for the 720th Eagleer Selection Contest in the Third District!Contact number: 666π∑π3/4∅7417417474741......"
Luna yawned, quickly switched off the advertisement with the remote control, and muttered dissatisfied: "It takes a very strong mental power to become a Flying Eagle, how can we ordinary people have ....."
