Revolution, Cyber Magical Girl!
Chapter 14 Birth Factory
Central Medical Center is the only hospital in the Lower Town, established by a pharmaceutical company in the Upper Town, representing an extremely high level of medical care.
However, most people in the lower district never set foot in this hospital in their entire lives.
The exorbitant medical costs deterred them, and in the past, even when they were injured or sick, they would at most take some painkillers and tough it out.
But things are different now. With the development of technology, prosthetics have entered the public eye and are used on a large scale. If people feel uncomfortable, they can simply replace their body with a prosthetic.
Moreover, the illegal clinics on the street are very cheap, and they are also very bold. They dare to perform surgery on you directly on a medical bed that has not had its sheets changed or been sterilized for who knows how long. If you are cured, you are cured; if you are not cured, you will be sent to a cleaner to make a profit.
But no matter how you look at it, this is indeed a case of technology changing lives.
Lu Chaoge first bought some nutritional supplements at a convenience store on the street, and after thinking about it, she gritted her teeth and bought a piece of synthetic beef.
As for genetically modified fruits and pre-made nutritional meal kits, Lu Chaoge didn't dare to even glance at them.
It's not that pre-made food is bad, it's just that Lu Chaoge really can't afford it.
After paying 1.2, Lu Chaoge has 25 left in her account.
Upon entering the central medical center, Lu Chaoge saw Luo De waiting for him at the door. He was taken aback when he saw the gift in Luo De's hand, and a great look of confusion appeared on his dark face.
"Bro, you came all this way and even brought a gift, where did you learn that?"
"Isn't that how it is?" Lu Chaoge came to visit Luo De's daughter today. She glanced at the people around her and found that no one else did this. She felt like an oddity because she was carrying a lot of bags.
"Enough talk, let's go see my daughter. I've already paid the money, and she'll be having surgery soon."
Rod's voice was tinged with excitement, and he used every word with a clean swear word, as if he would only speak like this when mentioning his daughter.
"By the way, what kind of injury did your daughter suffer that made her bedridden for ten years?" Lu Chaoge was full of doubt and curiosity. In the underground city, being sick and bedridden for ten years is basically no different from being dead. Even for a family member, it is not easy to do this.
"Her..."
Through conversation, Lu Chaoge learned the story behind it.
Rod's daughter suffered a brain injury, an injury that street-side quack clinics cannot treat, nor can they provide a suitable prosthetic body; only the neurology department at the central medical center can treat it.
And the reason for all of this is actually because of hackers.
"Bro, you know I'm a hacker. Although I'm nothing in the eyes of those people in the upper city, in the lower city, my skills are not bad."
"But you know what? My daughter is a genius, an absolute genius. Her talent far surpasses mine. She likes this, and I'm willing to teach her."
"But she improved too fast. I don't know when, but her skills have surpassed mine, and I didn't know any of this because her skills are better than mine."
"When she was nine, she secretly entered the digital dark web behind my back, and she went deep in. Damn it, I wouldn't dare to go deep into that kind of chaotic place. The information attacks there can directly damage your brain..."
Lu Chaoge knew that the digital dark web was a chaotic and disorderly place on the internet, and deep infiltration was basically equivalent to physical entry in the eyes of hackers. Hackers without some skills would not dare to do such a thing.
Clearly, this is why Rod's daughter suffered so much.
"But this day has finally come, everything will be alright." Rhodes let out a long sigh, as if to release all the hardships he had endured over the years.
They arrived at a hospital ward.
The ward was closed off and inaccessible, but it had transparent glass, so Luo De and Lu Chaoge could only stay outside.
"Look, that's my daughter."
Following the direction Rod pointed, Lu Chaoge saw the other party's daughter.
Rod was right; his daughter was indeed very cute, or rather, very beautiful, and the brain damage had not stopped her physical development.
But the premise is that it really is his daughter...
Lu Chaoge rubbed her eyes, then looked at the spot Luo De was pointing to, and examined it more closely.
"Is that your daughter?" Lu Chaoge's voice was tinged with unspoken emotion; he dared not speak harshly.
"Yes, that's my daughter. Isn't she adorable? No, no, I should say she's beautiful. She's eighteen already, a young woman! Lu, don't get any funny ideas. I won't marry my daughter to you, hmph!"
Looking at the blonde, blue-eyed sleeping beauty on the hospital bed, and then at Rod's dark skin, Ni Ge was a true Mexican style.
Lu Chaoge suddenly didn't know what to say.
"fine."
Lu Chaoge nodded. He suddenly realized that the other party had not suffered a mental breakdown after experiencing such a thing, and had been able to raise his daughter for ten years in a chaotic place like the underground city, paying high medical expenses and even selling his eggs. His perseverance day after day was nothing short of miraculous.
In retrospect, this "daughter" can be seen as Rhodes's spiritual anchor.
That's good, at least Rod is fine as a father.
The surgery would take place in a few days. Lu Chaoge and Luo De left the hospital after a short stay. He wanted to go straight home, but Luo De insisted on taking him to Yuesen for a drink.
Yuesen Bar is considered a gathering place for the Big O gang. It was afternoon, and there were many gang members inside.
Lu Chaoge didn't know them; at most, they were familiar with him, but they were very curious about him.
After all, Lu and Rhodes were able to overpower more than a dozen people from Ghostfire Temple that day, and everyone knew that Rhodes was just a hacker. In reality, it was Lu Chaoge who fought ten people at once, and his strength was recognized by everyone.
Many people came up to talk to him, but Lu Chaoge only gave them a few simple replies, after all, he didn't want to reveal too much information.
After finishing his drink, Lu Chaoge prepared to leave, but another gang member surrounded him.
He was a young man, dressed in gang-style clothes, but his face still had a touch of immaturity, and in some ways he looked more like a college student who had just entered the workforce.
"My name is K. Lu. I heard that you helped Rod find loopholes in the medical bills."
After receiving Lu Chaoge's affirmative nod, he handed over a document with a mixture of anticipation and nervousness, saying with a hint of hope.
"Can you help me take a look? I really don't know what to do. I feel like I'll never be able to pay off these debts."
"OK."
Lu Chaoge did not refuse, and sat down to take the other party's documents and began to read them.
The first page has a large title on the top line.
[Bill for Breeding Expenses (No.: 0432K) - Breeding Factory]
Lu Chaoge was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the young man standing in front of her.
K is the name of the young man in front of us, which means...
"I came from a birthing factory, I have no parents," the young man said somewhat awkwardly.
Lu Chaoge nodded and continued reading.
In this day and age, facing increasing life pressures, the birth rate continues to decline.
In order to unleash productive forces, the World Supreme Federation passed a bill for a man-made production plan, namely, a birth factory.
Reproduction no longer requires both parents; only sperm and eggs need to grow in a specialized culture dish. The company will invest resources in their cultivation and teach them basic knowledge through a systematic brain-computer interface.
Finally, these babies grow up like an assembly line, enter society, and begin working.
And for this, the company will pay for their reproductive costs.
