Game of Destiny: This player is different

"Titanium alloy skeleton, bioplastic blood vessels, nano muscle fibers..."

Confirming that the new prosthesis was implanted correctly,

Afra took the tablet computer handed over by Lao Kang and read the bill.

At first, her voice was quite loud,

Then the voice became quieter and quieter, and in the end it was almost as soft as a mosquito's hum.

Qin Nuo raised his eyelids and glanced at the screen,

Material fee + surgery fee, a total of 6,000 Singapore dollars.

Recalling the time when I took the skytrain,

The monthly income of 3,000 mentioned by passers-by did not seem to be much.

"Uh..."

However, when Afra handed the tablet back,

hesitated for a few seconds and said: "It's like this...I've been on the go..."

"When have you ever been less financially strapped?"

Lao Kang interrupted: "Okay, okay, as usual, I'll owe you money first,

and you can pay me back later when you have more money."

He took the tablet and sat back in front of the computer,

while typing on the virtual keyboard,

without raising his head, he said: "By the way, Afra, your operating system has been hacked,

Is there an unknown chip connected?

Fortunately, no virus was implanted,

otherwise you wouldn't be able to come to me safely.

I've already readjusted it for you, be careful next time."

"Thank you, Lao Kang, I trouble you every time."

Afra thanked him with an embarrassed look on her face,

and glanced at Qin Nuo with a meaningful look.

It was obviously not the first time she had bought on credit,

and judging from her behavior, she probably owed a lot of medical expenses.

"No wonder you emphasize that Lao Kang is the best prosthetic doctor in Hayward, that's why."

Qin Nuo ignored Aphra's gaze,

craning his neck to look at the computer page.

Just at this moment,

Lao Kang stopped typing,

raised his hand and said, "Shafulin, didn't you just ask me how much a set of surgical equipment costs?

Here is a detailed price list, all new models."

Hearing this,

Afra ignored her inner complaints and said with wide eyes, "Are you going to be a prosthetic doctor?"

"Don't I look like a doctor?"

"You said before..."

"Mercenaries."

Qin Nuo waved his hand and said casually, "The two are not contradictory, anyway, they all make a living with knives."

Afra fell silent, not knowing how to refute for a while.

When she saw the two men,

The cat pointed at the screen and looked very busy.

She shook her head helplessly,

walked forward to tell him that she was going home,

asked Qin Nuo if he would stay here temporarily or come together?

After receiving a negative answer, she turned around and left the clinic,

in a hurry and seemed to be in a hurry.

After the footsteps faded away and disappeared in the corridor,

Lao Kang lit a cigarette.

The smell of nicotine dissipated, and the smoke was curling.

He exhaled a few long smoke rings and said leisurely: "Shafulin, you and Afra have known each other for a short time, right?

She used to be alone."

"No more than 24 hours."

Qin Nuo nodded, staring at the screen: "Lao Kang, a set of surgical equipment costs at least 200,000?

Dental chair, shadowless lamp, anesthesia device, monitor...

You worked hard for Afra for half a day and only got 6,000.

It's a bit expensive."

"Do you think I calculated it according to the original price?

Nanofiber muscle plus bioplastic blood vessels cost more than 6,000.

Titanium alloy bones and surgery fees are just written down, not included."

Lao Kang said with a slightly raised eyebrow, holding a cigarette in his mouth.

Qin Nuo's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Oh? Then can I get a discount if I buy from you?"

"If you have two brothers and sisters to support,

or those who are not related by blood, I don't mind giving you some discounts."

"Haha, I have a lot of people to support, far more than two."

"You are so good at bragging. It's a pity that you don't become a TV host."

Faced with Qin's rare truth, Lao Kang decisively chose not to believe it.

Since there were no other customers for the time being,

this doctor, who was relatively idle, patiently answered Qin Nuo's questions.

For example, the income of ordinary citizens in the city that never sleeps is between 3,000 and 4,000.

After deducting miscellaneous expenses such as rent, water, electricity, insurance, etc.,

it is already good to have a surplus of 500 per month.

This is the salary of people who work in companies and have proper jobs.

If you don't have a legitimate job, do odd jobs, or pick up waste, you can only make a little over 2,000 per month.

You have to pray not to get sick,

otherwise a visit to the hospital can easily bankrupt an ordinary person.

If you are looking for a private clinic for the purpose of saving money,

it depends on luck.

If you encounter a black-hearted doctor,

not only will he sell second-hand or third-hand garbage as inferior,

but it may also contain electronic viruses.

When the patient loses consciousness and faints inOn the roadside,

scavengers will appear, dragging her into the underground workshop to dismantle the prosthesis,

and finally throwing out a jar of ashes, claiming that the patient died.

This is also the main reason why

Afra would rather drag her broken legs and hold on until the next day,

and must return to Hayward to find Lao Kang for treatment.

The second factor is naturally that she does not have enough money in her pocket.

"Lao Kang, since you care about Afra, why don't you help directly?

Why use such a roundabout way of buying on credit?"

Qin Nuo asked.

"Credit is credit, giving money is giving money, the nature is different."

Lao Kang swiped the computer screen and said in a deep voice:

"I don't want to destroy the current relationship.

Afra has a strong self-esteem and will not accept this form of help.

You know, in the city that never sleeps, there are not many people who can maintain their self-esteem."

He paused while speaking,

clicked on a pop-up window, and exclaimed:

"It turns out that there was big news in Baguazhou last night.

The Sodexo Gang and the White City Circus Gang,

a violent conflict occurred during a transaction in the suburbs, resulting in the death of nearly 40 people.

After the violent terrorist mobile team rushed to the scene, they quickly suppressed the unrest.

But there was a terrorist suspected of being a cyber psychopath. Element,

Break through the blockade and escape into the Baguazhou area.

Now the Never Sleep City police and the Sanmu Group have issued a Class A bounty warrant.

Anyone who can help capture the suspect can get a reward of 50,000 Singapore dollars.

Those who capture him alive can also get a chance to join the Sanmu Group plus a subsidy of 10,000 Singapore dollars.

Reminder: The suspect is very dangerous.

He has caused casualties to 10 ECPD members and 1 Sanmu Group employee,

and caused a lot of economic and property losses.

According to incomplete statistics, the amount may exceed 500,000 Singapore dollars,

and the assets of the Sanmu Group looted are worth more than 70,000 Singapore dollars. "

Turn the page,

At the bottom is the bounty order and the portrait of the suspect.

"It can cause casualties among 10 ECPD members,

which means that it was under at least three times the firepower at that time.

But the outfit is very strange, with Katakana characters on it.

And it doesn't look like it has any prosthetic components."

Old Kang smacked his lips and exclaimed:

"If this guy can make some more noise,

a new legend will appear in the City That Never Sleeps.

Don't you think so, Shafulin?"

"Yeah, I think so too."

Qin Nuo nodded, agreeing.
