Chapter 286: Lunar Eclipse, Make Your Life Better
Tonight, the prosthetic hospital, which works with the log bar, is very happy.
Another fighter who had been transplanted with a fairly prosthetic body had been pronounced dead when he was brought to them, and they didn't want to know how the underground boxer, who had transformed himself into a chariot, had been beaten to death without obvious injuries, because they had a lot of work to do.
For example, the gorilla arms and subcutaneous armor of the deceased were removed, repaired and modified accordingly, and then circulated on the black market.
"Ill-fitting prosthetics greatly increase the likelihood that the user will become a cyber lunatic, and the law prohibits private prosthetic trade."
Suddenly, an untimely voice came to mind in the dissection room.
A few physiologists followed the prestige, and only then did they notice an uninvited guest who came in at some pointβa girl with braided hair and a rustic look, whose appearance was obscured by a pair of old black-rimmed glasses, but judging from their years of experience in prosthetics, this girl was a beauty.
"What about the guards? How did you get in? β
The prosthetic doctor with a circular saw asked gloomily, and did not forget to pretend to be vicious and show the other party the "murder weapon" in his hand.
"Slipped in." The girl with the braided hair pointed to the corpse on the hospital bed, "Are you planning to remove his prosthesis and sell it on the black market?" β
"Ha, another nosy little girl."
The two phystologists sang and harmonized, "A nosy little girl like you, we've dissected no less than 56 of them." β
"What was the cause of this fighter's death?"
She asked, gesturing to the corpse lying flat on the dissecting table.
"Didn't you hear what we just said? We're ......."
"I'm giving you a chance to make amends."
As soon as she spoke, she completely suppressed the two of them from the momentum, obviously looking like a rustic little girl, but after being glared at by her, the two of them had weak legs and almost fell to their knees.
β¦β¦
A moment later, Song Lan, who was outside a residential building in District 17, received a call from Lu Xiang.
"The prosthetic doctor said that the deceased died suddenly and had been injected with illegal drugs before participating in the competition, which put a great strain on his body."
There are many unclear medical aspects of sudden death, and they can only speculate a relatively reasonable explanation based on the results of laboratory tests, "The last deceased who was sent in was in a similar situation to him, and he used a large amount of illegal drugs before the competition. β
The causes of death of both are medically plausible.
Strenuous exercise combined with an overdose of illegal drugs can fill several morgues each year for such sudden deaths in the 17th district.
If the incident is seen through the eyes of murder, then she suspects that the skinny man may have put some "additives" in the illegal drugs that the two men had before the race, and unknowingly killed them after they had a high-intensity exercise.
After a rough explanation of the clues she had investigated at the prosthetic hospital, she turned to ask, "How's your situation going over there?" β
"He had just arrived home and looked like he was just an ordinary citizen."
Not long ago, the Crime Investigation Bureau sent information about the thin man.
Riki, male, 40 years old.
A few months ago, he was a worker in an electronics factory in the 17th arrondissement, but later he became one of the many unemployed because of the slump in the electronics factory.
In the course of a few months, he looked for several more jobs, but in the end, he was fired because of his age.
Chief Snake speculated that Riki must have heard about the high prize money of the underground boxing tournament and came up with the idea of participating.
And this is the weirdest part of this case.
According to the records in the file, Rimu was just an ordinary laid-off worker, who had neither a combat prosthesis nor taken a physical modification drug, and in fact, with their family's current economic level, it was simply not enough to afford such medicine.
But under such circumstances, Riki still signed up for the competition without hesitation, and put himself in the same iron cage as those opponents whose prosthetic body was transformed like a chariot.
And before the two games, Riki had done some suspicious behavior - pressing himself 50 watts to win.
This made Song Lan subconsciously think that Riki had suddenly awakened some kind of ability, or had been a hidden master all along, but his next behavior made Song Lan have to look at this problem again.
"I recorded it, you better watch it yourself."
Song Lan sent the video she had just recorded to Lu Xiang.
When Riki arrived home, it was already past one o'clock in the morning, and the light in the living room was still on, and his wife, who was sitting on the sofa anxiously waiting when he came back, immediately greeted him, although the wound on his face had been treated simply, but the part that had been beaten and deformed would not be able to recover for a while.
On the way home, he was beaten by a thug.
This was Riki's explanation for the injury, and he then handed over the money he had won from 50 watts to his wife.
There is a kind boss who offers him a job with a good salary, the company's benefits are good, and every employee will be provided with nutritional injections, except for working a little longer, there is nothing to be picky about.
It's just that I've been a little back recently, and when the boss was paying his salary, he happened to be seen by the street gangsters nearby, and he desperately kept this hard-won salary.
When he mentioned that he had escaped from the street thugs with his salary, Riki spoke proudly and his eyebrows fluttered, as if that thrilling chase had really happened.
After agreeing to his wife's request to report the case to the law enforcement department tomorrow, the worried wife finally put her mind at ease.
Then, Limu tiptoed into the bedroom, opened the bedroom door a crack, and looked at the sleeping child by the faint light of the living room, and when he saw the child turn over, he quickly closed the door.
He said that there was still some work to be done, and that his wife should go back to her room to rest first.
When there was only one person left in the living room, his expression changed significantly, as if his eyebrows were twisted together because of the pain, his left hand covered his heart, and the whole person collapsed on the sofa.
It took him two or three minutes before he recovered from the feeling that his whole body was falling apart.
When the living room fell silent again, he used his last strength to open the computer that he had used for an unknown number of years.
After making sure there was no more movement in the bedroom, he opened a website.
The content on the website seems to make Riki forget about the pain in his body for a moment, and mentally take him to a world other than reality.
Both the text and the accompanying pictures are thriving.
