Chapter 144: Something Interested?
What's more, the group of superheroes in the comics had a hard time fighting because of the "whether to be controlled by the government", and the audience watched it very well off the screen.
But when it comes to reality, the terrible war damage is not something that just one or two people can resign to bear and appease the anger of the people.
The car drove to the airport, changed to a private jet, and finally stopped at what looked like a hospital on the outskirts of the city.
"Your District 51 headquarters is here?" Su Mo looked at this deserted hospital with a strange atmosphere and said.
"No, but the minister is in a sanatorium." Lawrence said.
"Sanatorium, is your minister dying?" Su Mo looked at Lawrence.
"Probably not." Lawrence laughed dryly, speaking of which, he was just a small person who had only risen to power in these years, and he had only met twice with the high-ranking and mysterious minister.
One time was before meeting Su Mo, and the other time was after meeting Su Mo.
These two meetings were video calls, and the minister, who should be sixty-five years old this year, looked a little older and weaker than his peers. However, it has not reached the point of "dying" as Su Mo said.
It feels like Lawrence is more like an ordinary old man who is not in good health, rather than the person in charge of the mysterious department of Area 51.
I don't know if this formal meeting will feel any different.
It's just that Lawrence couldn't feel it today, because when they stepped into the cold, gray-and-white sanatorium gate, a group of heavily armed men stopped them.
To be precise, it was to stop everyone other than Su Mo.
"I'm sorry, the minister ordered to come here. Only Mr. Su was allowed to enter alone. "It's usually the squad leader who speaks, and the others are responsible for deterring with guns.
"This?" Lawrence was stunned for a moment, he hadn't received an order to let Su Mo in before that.
Could it be that someone pretended to be a minister and gave some not-so-good orders?
"Well, then I'll go in." Su Mo accepted it calmly. Anyway, there is no one for him here, and whether Lawrence follows up or not has no impact on Su Mo.
"Okay, Mr. Su, please come with us, the minister is waiting for you inside." The team leader said to Su Mo with a respectful attitude.
Outside the sanatorium is a large garden, entered through an iron gate and along a gravel road. A small circular fountain can be seen, and behind the fountain is the main entrance of the main house.
At this moment, outside the main entrance, an old man who looked a little weak, with a gray blanket on his knees, was sitting in a wheelchair, and pushing the wheelchair behind was a woman dressed as a nurse and wearing black-framed glasses, which should be the medical staff of this nursing home.
I saw Su Mo coming. The old man trembled as he grasped the armrests of his wheelchair with both hands. Very reluctantly, he stood up and said, "Welcome Mr. Su." ”
His weakness seemed to be much worse than his appearance suggested. Su Mo could see that when this person was standing, his legs were trembling slightly, and he didn't know if he was pretending.
"Oh, you're the head of Area 51?"
It's a pity that his actions didn't make the expression on Su Mo's face change at all, and it was like an ordinary person meeting an old man. The elder stood up tremblingly to greet him, which would be a little expressive.
But when it came to Su Mo, he would only say "Elder? I'm the - the elder - is the elder! ”
The old man also seemed to realize that his behavior of "Corporal Lixian" had no effect on Su Mo at all, and the expression on his face moved slightly, and he sat down again.
It's not that he deliberately wants to make any gestures. It's just that his instinctive reaction over the years made him use such a "corporal Lixian" appearance to win people's hearts, and after being stunned for a while, he thought back to himself, and this person in front of him was not a "corporal".
"My name is Kun, Mr. Su, if you don't mind, let's go inside and talk about it, shall we?" Kun said to Su Mo.
"Yes." Su Mo nodded.
The people who came with Su Mo just now did not enter the house with the three of them, but dispersed and continued to patrol the garden.
Entering the hall of the house, it was a bit lively beyond Su Mo's expectations, many doctors and nurses were walking around, and the inside was bright, in stark contrast to the dark tones outside.
In addition to the conversations of the doctors and nurses and the sound of footsteps, some shouts faintly reached Su Mo's ears.
"Here, it's just claiming to be a sanatorium." "Actually, it's a psychiatric hospital. ”
"Really? What are you going to do when you look for a place like this? Su Mo turned around and asked.
"There's an important thing I want to ask Mr. Su." Kun didn't shy away from saying.
"That's what you said on the phone, and it might interest me." Su Mo asked.
Kun nodded: "Yes, actually, I think most people in the world will be interested, but unfortunately...... They're all mediocre people who don't deserve to know that. In my opinion, only Mr. Su can know about this. Mr. Su, please come with us. ”
The three of them came to the side of the elevator door and waited for the elevator to descend to the first floor.
The elevator door opened, and a doctor in a white coat walked out, looked at Kun, and immediately stepped aside respectfully and said, "Boss." ”
"Hmm." Kun Bugou nodded, and was pushed by the nurse into the elevator.
"This nursing home is my investment and construction, and in addition to the S.H.I.E.L.D. project, this is my biggest effort." The elevator door closed, and Kun said to Su Mo, without avoiding the nurse behind him at all, it seems that this woman is his confidant.
As he spoke, Kun reached out and pressed on the button on the first floor, but he didn't let go of the button after he held it down, and after pressing it for a full minute, Kun let go.
The elevator vibrated slightly and began to descend slowly.
"The basement is the real purpose of my establishment of this mental hospital, and I may surprise Mr. Su later. I don't think Mr. Su has seen anything like this in his long years. Kun laughed, his smile a little creepy.
However, the two people present, one was Kun's henchman, and the other was Su Mo, whose fear had almost disappeared, and they didn't react to Kun's smile.
Kun couldn't help but reach out and touch his nose, as if slightly embarrassed.
Fortunately, at this time, the elevator door opened, attracting Su Mo's attention and resolving Kun's embarrassment to some extent.
This Su Mo thought it was a hospital, claiming to be a sanatorium, but it was actually the basement of a psychiatric hospital, still with transparent lights, and in front of him was a hall like the first floor, with bright tiles and white walls, and there was no darkness that a normal basement should have.
This square hall was empty, with three doors, and outside each door stood a soldier with a loaded gun, who did not react to the arrival of Su Mo and the others.
Su Mo also noticed that there was an automatic machine gun in the corner that was constantly scanning.
"Let's go." Kun's tone was slightly excited. The nurse behind him pushed him to the opposite gate in addition to the elevator.
Su Mo followed to the center of the hall and paused.
"Mr. Su noticed?" Kun's wheelchair stopped, and he turned his head to Su Mo and said.
"This is where you hold those neurological patients?" Su Mo asked, Su Mo didn't care about the true identity of the neuropath, so he followed Kun's words.
He faintly heard all sorts of noisy cries coming from the other two doors.
"The ones above are mentally ill, here...... This is not your average mental patient. Kun said, reaching out and pressing his eyebrows, "Come with me first, Mr. Su, and I can't explain all this to you until I see you." ”
"Explain everything that is easy to die." Su Mo said with a smile.
Kun was stunned for a moment, didn't answer Su Mo's words, turned his head, a gloomy color crossed his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Pushing open the door on the other side, a long walkway appeared in front of you, and on either side of the corridor were closed iron doors, which looked somewhat similar to the shelter where the monster was held.
However, the aisle was still bright, and the overhead lights were a little dazzling, as if the electricity bill was not expensive.
At the end of the corridor, a circular room appeared in front of me, with several scientific researchers in the room, as well as beds, various wires, and pipes transmitting unknown liquids almost all over the room, making it difficult for people to have a place to put their feet.
Lying on the beds were men in white hospital gowns, fully bound by restraints, with several tubes stuck in their bodies, and a metal ring on top of their heads, occasionally twitching twice or letting out a miserable scream.
What really caught Su Mo's attention was a transparent column in the center of the room.
In the middle of the cylinder was a light green liquid, soaked in which was a man with his eyes closed, an oxygen mask over his mouth, and two tubes piercing his head, and several tubes the thickness of a finger in his body.
"That's what you said, I'll be interested...... Stuff? ”
Su Mo took a step forward and looked at the man inside through the transparency.
The man had no hair...... Or it had been shaved off, and there were plenty of burn marks on his body, and the rest of his complexion was eerily pale, and he looked like a dead man.
However, the chest of a slight bully indicates that the person is not dead, but sleeping.
"Yes......" Kun said, as soon as the words fell, the man in the green solution suddenly opened his eyes, a pair of pure white eyes stared at Su Mo without pupils.
