Life Dungeon Game

He shrugged and patted Aini's head. "Uncle Roger is a very good doctor. He will teach you some medical knowledge. Quickly thank your teacher."

"?" Roger was taken aback. "Did we just talk about this?"

However, Annie reacted quickly, bowing deeply, "Thank you, Professor Roger, thank you for being willing to mentor me."

Roger looked at the father and daughter with a wry smile, "You two are really alike."

But without realizing it, his relationship with He Ao and Aini had grown much closer, and the awkwardness of their first meeting was gone.

"Uncle Roger will be with us for a while, during which time he will teach you some basic fighting, nursing, and medical knowledge."

He Ao led Aini back to his SUV.

"Weren't you just a medical teacher? Don't go too far."

Roger protested.

"Thank you, Professor Roger. You know so much, you're amazing."

Annie looked at Roger with admiration.

Roger shut his mouth.

Over the years, he has dealt with female corpses far more often than women.

He still trusts Roger's character.

Moreover, based on Reggie's years of understanding of Roger, Roger preferred corpses with well-defined muscles and aesthetic appeal to beautiful women.

Reggie and Roger went to see a striptease show in Alyssalon years ago.

As Reggie's gaze lingered on the stripper's clothes as she removed them one by one, Roger earnestly explained to the old man what each muscle of the stripper's body should look like when dissected.

And he said that the stripper wasn't as pretty as Rigitte.

From then on, Reggie tried to keep a physical distance from Roger.

.

However, it was precisely because of this that He Ao felt comfortable entrusting his daughter to Roger.

Roger said goodbye to the Nolanca Group's convoy and got into Heo's small SUV with him.

Annie, sitting in the passenger seat, glanced at her father, then at Roger in the back seat, who was taking out a mutated three-eared rat that appeared to be dead and observing something. She scratched her head.

She couldn't understand what her father was trying to do.

The off-road vehicle moved slowly forward into the night.

He quickly returned to the Andavi family's camp, buried the shadow, and retrieved his belongings.

After bidding farewell to the old clan chief, he changed into a more spacious off-road vehicle and drove into the depths of night.

"Dad, where are we going?"

Annie opened the car window, letting the night breeze caress her hair.

He looked up at the city lights twinkling in the distance.

"go home."

In the back seat of the SUV, Roger had already used a scalpel to perfectly dissect the three-eared rat in his hand into its skeleton and flesh.

There is no meat on the bone, and no bone in the meat.

-

The Andavi family camp.

In the silvery metallic space, murals tell the story of an ancient family history.

The sharp carving knife left its last mark, and the old, frail hand, covered in age spots and with loose skin, slowly placed the carving knife into the plate beside the wheelchair.

The old man looked up at the mural in front of him and slowly backed up in his wheelchair.

The entire panorama of the mural appeared before his eyes.

This is a huge mural. A colossal beast, as large as a mountain, stands in the center of the mural. Beside it is a raging fire, and at its feet are endless, bizarre mushrooms.

Even across the boundary between reality and virtuality, standing outside this mural, one can feel the suffocating oppression of that terrifying behemoth.

But right between the giant beast and the viewer, in front of the giant beast, stood a figure with tattered clothes and covered in wounds.

He was wearing an intricately patterned fireproof suit, his right arm around a helmet resting against his waist, and not far beside him were motorcycle parts engulfed in flames.

He stood there quietly, gazing at the terrifying yet magnificent beast, like a tiny speck of dust watching a god.

However, he did not retreat even a step. His body stood straight, and in that tiny frame, it seemed as if he was supporting a towering mountain.

Two updates totaling 6,000 words. I'll try to schedule updates around 7:30 PM from now on and go to bed earlier.

Chapter 454 How do I get to the morgue? (Long Chapter)

"Scan my identity chip."

The city defense soldiers guarding the city gate stopped He Ao's off-road vehicle.

He Ao scanned his bracelet with a beep.

"Citizen, you are about to enter Limen City. Please ensure that you are not carrying any dangerous items or live wild animals. We are about to inspect your vehicle and luggage. Do you agree?"

The soldier looked at Heo and said calmly.

"agree!"

He Ao nodded slightly, then pushed open the car door and got out.

The SUV was not carrying any firearms or weapons, nor any contraband; it only contained some luggage they had taken with them earlier.

Well, for the city's defense forces, cold weapons are not considered weapons.

Although Limen City is a much smaller city than Rock City, its city defense forces are actually more resistant to invasion than those of Rock City.

As a federally administered city surrounding the capital city of Irons, the Limen City Defense Force is not under the command of the Limen City government, but rather directly under the command of the federal government.

Of course, the city's defense forces would turn a blind eye to some local powers and large conglomerates that paid them sufficient tribute.

For example, if Heo had left the city with the shadowy corpse, he would have been stopped. But he mingled with the Sand Wave Gang's convoy and left the city without being checked.

As for information on people entering and leaving the city, and even deeper secrets, those are not so easy to obtain.

He guessed that Reid probably hadn't reported his situation yet, since He hadn't caused any real damage to the research institute so far; the people who died were the ones Reid sent to kill him.

If the other party's fundamental interests are not affected, then those at higher levels will not care about this matter. As for Reed, he will also feel that the incident is still under control and will not be reported to ruin his own future.

Therefore, Reid's power and resources alone are insufficient to persuade the city's defense forces to provide him with intelligence.

He Ao has managed this balance very well, so he can now swagger back to the city.

The city garrison soldiers conducted a thorough inspection of the vehicle before allowing He Ao to pass.

After passing through the outermost city gate, there was a barbican. He Ao and his group had to be tested for parasitic substances in their bodies in the barbican and stay there for twelve hours before they could enter the city.

The whole process went smoothly without any unexpected events. By the time He Ao entered the city, it was already around four o'clock in the afternoon.

He's off-road vehicle was unlicensed; such vehicles cannot be driven in the city and are mostly owned by wanderers in the wilderness.

The laws vary from city to city; some cities will confiscate these vehicles, while others will prohibit them from entering the city.

The laws in the city are relatively lenient; if you are a homeless person living in the wilderness, you cannot drive your car into the city.

However, citizens like He Ao, who have a social security card number, only need to pay a registration fee of two thousand federal dollars and sign a commitment letter stating that the vehicle has a legitimate origin to obtain a temporary license plate that can be used for three months.

Once you have this temporary license plate, you can go to the vehicle management office in Limen City and, after going through a series of procedures, change it to a license plate issued in Limen City.

This law originally did not limit the number of licenses each person could exchange.

amount.

As a result, many businessmen took this opportunity to drive vehicles that couldn't be registered in a gray area to the wilderness, then used this law to change their license plates to those of Limen City, and then to other cities.

To whitewash the 'black'.

Later, the law was amended so that a person could only obtain a license plate once a year.

However, this had no effect on He Ao. When he entered the city, he switched places with Roger and then had Aini hide.

As soon as they passed through the city gate, they saw several people sitting in a coffee shop opposite the gate, clearly observing and identifying the faces of those entering the city.

This is most likely the 'eye' related to Reid.

In fact, it is easier to use artificial intelligence facial recognition to track down people in this situation, and the recognition rate will be much higher than that of manual methods.

However, firstly, the city defense forces do not allow the use of these AI camera devices in the vicinity, and secondly, those capable of entering and leaving the city are generally not benevolent individuals, and once discovered, they are likely to attract unnecessary trouble.

These human spies did not recognize Roger, nor did they discover the hidden Annie.

Then Roger drove right past these spies.

After leaving the city gate, the SUV did not go straight home, but instead went directly to an old apartment building.

Eve found a family renting out their property here.

Private rentals, as they are called, are a form of rental that differs from the bulk rental of apartments by large corporations. They involve individual landlords who own houses renting out their properties and collecting rent.

The landlords of this household are an elderly couple in their sixties. The house is a three-bedroom apartment. The rent in the neighborhood is much cheaper than in Dawn City. The rent for this apartment is about 730 federal dollars per week.

The landlord couple had both retired, but they didn't have the chance to enjoy their retirement because their 40-year-old son was unemployed. The son, daughter-in-law, and two grandsons were crammed into a small two-bedroom rental apartment.

The entire family's livelihood rests on the elderly couple's pensions and retirement savings. Recently, through a friend's connection, the old man found a part-time job as a driver.

The son's apartment is in a worse location and is much smaller, so the rent is much lower. The elderly couple plans to rent out their own apartment and move in with their son and daughter-in-law to reduce their expenses.

It's worth mentioning that the mortgage on this house is not yet paid off. The couple bought the house when they were 49 years old, and the loan will continue until they are 79.

"No matter how hard life is, you still have to live."

Before leaving, the old man with a full head of white hair coughed a few times, smiled, and said goodbye to everyone.

The two elderly people, supporting each other, left the house carrying their luggage.

He Ao did not try to lower the rent for the apartment.

Annie stared at the backs of the two elderly people, suddenly lost in thought.
