Chapter 63 Another Drunk
It's close to 11 p.m., walking on the streets of Nujiao City. At this time, most citizens have gone to bed, and only the direction of the pub is still brightly lit. In turbulent times, energy is in short supply. Although Nujiao City has its own wind power facilities, it is not luxurious enough to waste this energy on city lighting, even if there are street lamps on both sides of the street.
In the city at night, only a few searchlights from the headquarters of Ron Company occasionally tore up the night. More is the bright light cast by the dark red radiation clouds in the sky.
Zero still instructed on the note and walked in the direction of Dr. Victor's residence. Nujiao City is a rare surface city. The ubiquitous radiation affects the residents of the city. When walking, the skin has been numb, which is the reaction to radiation. However, for zero, the amount of radiation on the surface is within the range that his body can withstand, which has been detected and confirmed by zero since he woke up two years ago.
But for other people, long-term exposure to radiation, even if people's radiation resistance is greatly improved, it is inevitable that diseases of tissue mutation will occur. Especially in a surface city such as Nujiao City, the incidence rate is far higher than that of residents in other cities. In this way, doctors who have studied gene and cell mutations will be very popular.
However, the western area where Victor is located is already on the edge of Nu Reef City. No matter how you look at it, this is not a place where popular doctors should stay. In this question, Zero came to the destination.
A three-storey independent apartment is Dr. Victor's residence. The first floor of the apartment serves as a clinic, and the shadow of medical equipment can be seen from the doors and windows. Zero stood downstairs and saw that the window on the second floor was still bright. Zero rang the doorbell.
After the electronic doorbell made a mocking of the cheerful cry of birds, a rude voice came from it: "The guy who disturbs my rest, are you ready to be blown by me!"
Following a messy footsteps, the door opened and poked out of the darkness in the door, pointing to zero's forehead.
Zero is motionless.
After a moment of silence, the shotgun was taken back. A sloppy man came out. He was older than Zero and a little younger than Master. In his thirties, his hair has not been washed for many days and sticks to his forehead. Obviously, his beard on his chin may not have been trimmed for a long time and is messed together. The man smelled of alcohol all over his body, and in fact he still carried a bottle of whisky in his hand.
Looking at Zero with his bloody eyes and spitting out a breath of wine, he said, "Get out of here, or do you want to eat my bullets?"
After saying that, he was about to close the door.
"Mr. Victor, I was introduced by Master." Zero said lightly.
Victor's movements were stagnant, and then he turned around and said coldly, "Come in, but you only have 5 minutes."
Walking into the clinic on the first floor, the dim light does not make the blurred vision. He clearly saw that both the equipment and tables and chairs were covered with a thick layer of dust, and it could be seen that the clinic had not been in operation for a long time. Victor took Zero directly to the second floor. The second floor is a living room, and the whole hall can only be described as messy.
Lost wine bottles and leftover food are randomly piled up on the table, and then attract mutated and fat cockroaches. I don't know where the furniture has been thrown away, and the old floor is covered with thin sheets. It seems that Dr. Victor's life is not much better than that of a tramp.
"Dr. Victor, I heard that you are very researched in the treatment of genetic and cellular diseases."
Victor threw himself into a broken sofa in the corner of the hall. He poured whisky into his mouth like drinking water, and then said, "You still have 4 minutes."
Zero frowned and continued, "My wife, there is some mutation in her cells. Dr. Victor, I want to ask you to help me."
When he heard the word "wife", Victor's eyebrows jumped down. Then he drank wine again. After four or five mouthfuls, he raised his hand.
Zero saw his fingers tremble slightly, which is a sign of long-term alcohol abuse. Victor said self-deprecatingly, "See, I don't deserve to be a doctor. Then again, why do you want my help? Just rely on Master? I admit that this bastard once saved me once, but I have cured his illness, and he and I have cleared up.
"Of course not." Zero revealed the final card: "I'm going to make a fair deal with you."
"What transaction?" Victor seemed careless.
Zero said lightly, "I will help you save your wife who was stolen by the wolf, and you have to promise to cure my woman, isn't it fair?"
Victor, who had been trapped in the sofa, suddenly jumped up. He looked at Zero and looked at him for a moment and smiled, "Is it up to you?"
"It's up to me!" Zero took out his mercenary license and said, "First of all, I am a mercenary and a famous psychic. Secondly, I am very clear about your situation. Companies like Ron will not use an army to beat wolves and thieves for a civilian, and you don't pay a price for a force with private troops like Master. As for the mercenaries, probably no one wants to take on such a risky job.
Zero took a step forward: "So you have no choice, Dr. Victor. As long as you nod, there is at least one more chance. Or do you not love your wife at all?
"Bulls, no one loves Kailin more than me!" Victor gasped, walked back and forth a few steps, poured a sip of wine, and then threw the bottle out: "This is the last sip. Well, damn it, I promised you this... deal. But can you really save Kailin for me?
"As long as she is not dead, I will bring her back anyway!" Zero looked directly into the doctor's eyes and his eyes turned soft: "Believe me, doctor. I love my wife as well, which is not much less than you.
"I believe you." Victor nodded: "Tomorrow, bring your wife here. I can give her a preliminary examination first. As for you, get back now. I'm going to have a rest.
The doctor issued an eviction order, and Zero knew that it was to have enough physical strength to treat the patient. He left the clinic, and his sensitive ears made Zero hear Victor's crying and laughing sound from upstairs. Zero is sincerely grateful to Matts. It is he who has fully entrusted Victor's details, otherwise Zero will not know what Victor wants most now, and there will be no bargaining chips.
And the price of getting these is zero owed Master a request. But this is fair. No matter what era, there is no free lunch in the world!
