death of hope

Chapter 938: Psionic Storm (14) Guilty Conscience

"Everything is ready, let's get started~" the project leader announced happily.

The shadowless light was turned on, and a large group of enthusiastic and excited scientists carried the comatose psychic No. 46 to the operating table, cut open the cloth covering his body, and began the disinfection operation.

Li Ang originally thought that the 'dissection' mentioned by Dr. Joseph was an exaggeration, and it was at most a minor invasive surgery;

For example, microelectrodes are implanted into the spinal nerve bundle to detect and record the psychic waveform under microcurrent stimulation.
Alternatively, use a snake-shaped endoscope to drill into the abdominal cavity to observe and study the differences between the organs of the Eldar and humans.

However, Li Ang thought it was too simple.

He saw Dr. Joseph's favorite students, the scientists wearing biochemical protective suits, who did not look like they were going to perform a minimally invasive surgery or a common daily research.

Instead, he pretended to do something big, fixed the head of the Eldar girl with a mechanical arm, and tied her hands and feet with restraints.

Then he took out a large bundle of surgical instruments from the sterilizer and placed them neatly on the table.
Li Ang's men; two security staff members were chewing bubble gum out of boredom,
They were just working without emotion, keeping guard with guns based on the mission requirements, and would shoot the target dead if his psychic energy got out of control.

The young security director, Leon Vilnius, was obviously thinking more and was concentrating on observing every instrument on the table.

·
Before he was discovered to be an illegitimate child and expelled from the Vilnius family,

Li Ang received a good education in an aristocratic school, which of course included basic medical courses.

Unlike most of the aristocratic dandies who are lazy and unmotivated,

The illegitimate son Leon Vilnius did not sleep in class, but listened carefully, took notes, and reviewed his lessons at home.

The medical knowledge he learned was of great use in his subsequent experience as a sailor. When the Spirit Pirate Ship bombarded merchant ships with cannons, Leon temporarily acted as a doctor's assistant and saved the lives of many seriously injured soldiers.

In this scene today, the knowledge he has learned is still in use, allowing Li Ang to recognize most of the surgical instruments on the table:
Microscissors, hemostatic forceps, suction device...

Even a fool could see that this was obviously not as simple as a minimally invasive surgery. Li Ang's heart tightened, and he was very worried about the fate of the spirit girl.
(Poor little white mouse, she will probably be ripped open, and she can't resist, so she can only let herself be slaughtered.)
He saw scientists were excited and expectant, bringing more surgical instruments to the table.
When Li Ang saw the periosteal stripper, motor, micro drill, milling cutter motor, bone rongeur, brain pressure plate, and nerve stripper, his heart skipped a beat:
(Oh my god...are they going to do this to this child...)
He finally realized that what this poor child was about to experience was much more horrible than having his stomach ripped open and his heart and lungs ripped out.

This is a craniotomy.

·
The operation lasted six hours.
During this time, a trainee yawned and was glared at by the project manager, who immediately perked up.

The two security colleagues holding rifles were yawning continuously, but security supervisor Li Ang was not sleepy at all. He watched the whole process patiently with mixed feelings.

Fortunately, the operation went well.
There is no need to kill the gifted person as long as psychic power does not get out of control.

Unfortunately, the surgery went well.
The Eldar girl had her head sawed open by human scientists, part of her temporal lobe brain tissue removed, and some small things like sensors and chips implanted in her.

After the nerve connection was completed, for some reason, the skull was not repaired but the scalp was sutured directly, which resulted in terrible consequences:

Part of the brain tissue was not protected by the skull, and the elf girl's originally youthful and beautiful face collapsed. Her entire head looked like a duck egg cracked by a spoon. Her eyes were closed and she was unconscious, looking weird and terrifying.

·
When he saw the scientists suturing the girl's scalp, Li Ang once again felt deeply guilty:

(I have received aristocratic education, understand safety management, and can fight. I have experience working on merchant ships. I am good at dealing with alien pirates with extraordinary psychic talents. That’s why I was appreciated by the doctor and got this job…

Originally, protecting humans from alien invasion was understandable...

But... Miss Evely Darkmoon... she is not an alien pirate...

At first, I thought she had attacked and even killed humans, which was why she was being hunted by the police.

But later I found out that she was a psychic gifted person who escaped from a Psychic Research Institute and was bought by a big company for research...

She is just a poor alien, an orphan, a little Eldar girl wandering in the human world...

That day... I personally blew up the bridge that led her to freedom, and took her back to the institute, and back to the cage...

And now... for the sake of this job and to please the director, I turned a blind eye to the evil happening in this institute and condoned all these inhumane acts...

The teacher said that to be a gentleman, a noble with proud blood, a man from the Vilnius family must be an upright gentleman...

But I... became the type I hate the most...

Villain...

Profit-seeking,

A bootlicker who steps on the bones of the weak and tramples on the innocent to get ahead...)
·
Just when Li Ang was deeply remorseful and disappointed in himself, trembling all over, with cold sweat dripping down his cheeks,
A cheerful voice brought him back to reality:
"It's done. Everything went well. Director Joseph will be very happy~"

The project leader who was in charge of the operation took off his protective suit, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said:

"The chip and brain nerves are synchronized normally. With the data inside the brain, we can better observe and study how the Eldar brain controls psychic energy~
Thank you for your hard work, colleagues from the Security Department, go and have a rest~"

"No, no, no, we're just watching. You're the ones who are working hard~" The two security colleagues turned off the gun safety and hung the assault rifles back on their backs.

They had no sympathy for the tragic experience of the Eldar girl: "Well, do you want us to take this brat back to the cell? Don't wake up suddenly and run away or attack you."

"No need, don't worry~
She is in this state now, her imagination is so open, she can’t do anything weird for the time being~” A scientist took off his mask and said:

"Besides, we just had a craniotomy. Subject 46 needs to be sent to the ICU for a few days of observation. If he dies, it will be a waste of effort."

"That's great, it will save our security department a lot of trouble~" The two colleagues turned to Li Ang, stretched and said:
"Boss, we have been standing for six hours. We are tired and hungry. We didn't even have lunch.

I think we should not go back to the office, but go to the cafeteria to rest for a while, change clothes and wait until the end of the get off work day."

"Hey? Boss, what are you thinking about?"

Li Ang was stunned for a few seconds, looking at the Eldar girl with a collapsed skull, sighed, and lied:
"I was thinking about inviting you guys to dinner tonight...

Which restaurant should we go to?"
