Persona: Devil Summoner

However, when the child is transferred to the hospice ward, it is basically declared that there is no cure.

How could the parents accept that the last glimmer of hope was shattered? So, she had already discussed with her husband and was ready to transfer the child to another hospital. Regardless of whether the child could be cured or not, at least the hospital promised to do its best to treat the child and would not just send the child to the hospice ward to wait for death.

Although she felt that Dr. Takemi's name sounded familiar, she was preoccupied and didn't want to think too much about it. After comforting the child, Meihe's mother quickly went to find Dr. Oyamada and requested a transfer to another hospital.

Of course Ooyamada tried her best to keep him, but as the saying goes, a mother is strong, and as a mother she refused to give in, and finally Ooyamada could only reluctantly agree.

Before being transferred to another hospital, I had to undergo a final comprehensive examination.

On the one hand, it is to squeeze out the final examination fee, and on the other hand, it is also to give an explanation to the hospital that took over! You can't just transfer the patient without saying anything about the medical records and the patient's condition, right?

It doesn't matter if you don't check. If you check, you will be shocked.

If the condition worsens, that's fine.

Ooyamada had already thought of an excuse...but he didn't expect that after this examination, the symptoms of Eden disease in Meihe's body had been greatly reduced! Although the physical weakness during this period could not be recovered, the pathogenic bacteria of Eden disease had disappeared by more than half...

Before Meihe was admitted to the hospice ward, she had already been given up on treatment... What on earth made her condition recover so quickly?

The only thing I can think of... is the medicine Wu Jianmiao gave her...

(Damn it, that guy, that guy’s medicine is real! She, she really developed a special medicine?! What should I do… What should I do… If she publishes the prescription first, my reputation will be ruined… Those paparazzi will definitely interview her, and then she can just report me in front of the media…)

Director Ooyamada of the Medical Bureau was rarely overwhelmed by panic, with cold sweat pouring down his forehead. He didn't bother to deal with Mei and her mother. There was only one thing on his mind: how to solve this problem now!

Chapter 227: Do it or not

I don’t know if everyone will feel this way.

Many things are fine as long as you don’t delay them, but once you are really late, you will think: Ah, I’m late anyway, so don’t think too much about it, just play for a while and do it comfortably first, then do it?

This is the mood Jiang Tianwei is in now.

He carried Wu Jianmiao back to the clinic and put her on the drug testing bed where he had slept many times. Looking at the peaceful sleeping face of the beautiful woman, her fair skin and contrasting black hair, her thin body and her plump chest that rose and fell with her breathing, Jiang Tianwei couldn't help but think of——

(You have come to this day too!)

Jiang Tianwei couldn't help laughing. In the past, he would take the medicine and lie here like a little white mouse waiting for the effect of the medicine to take effect. He would usually be unconscious for an hour or so. Unexpectedly, karma has its own way and no one can escape it. Today, it is Ni Wu's turn to see the great doctor with thick eyebrows and big eyes lying here.

Considering that she might be hungry, he went to a nearby convenience store and bought her a sandwich and a carbonated drink and placed them on the table. When he left, he did not forget to close the door for her and hang up a sign saying "Closed".

Ordinary hospitals would not have such a store-like sign, which shows what this house did before it was established as the Takemi Internal Medicine Clinic.

According to a student's duties, Jiang Tianwei should go to class now.

But when he took out his phone, he realized...wasn't it already past nine o'clock?!

This is the theory mentioned at the beginning.

If he hadn't been late in the first place, he would have definitely tried his best to rush to school. But now that he was late... he couldn't change it anyway... so he felt a little bit at a disadvantage if he still went to class.

"Well, why not just go to that store and have a look..."

Jiang Tianwei muttered to himself as he boarded the train to Shibuya.

He has always had a question.

That's how the Phantom Thieves got their hands on guns.

In this peace-advocating era, even in Russia, a country with a strong martial spirit, or America, the recognized "capital of freedom", you need a gun license if you want to get a gun. So how did these poor students get the guns?

Many people have a bad habit of thinking that once they ask others questions, they will lose face. They would rather keep the knowledge to themselves than ask others in real life, for fear of losing face. But Jiang Tianwei has the good habit of asking questions.

Even Confucius had times when he asked others questions, let alone himself?

So after he asked Amamiya Ren, he finally found out the source of the Phantom Thieves' weapons...

Not far from Shibuya Station, turn a corner, pass two grand shops, turn into a small alley, and walk around a few times, you will see a "Survival Equipment Store" hidden deep in the alley.

If this term sounds unfamiliar, would it be more familiar to call it "real-life CS"? Survival games are games where players wear bulletproof vests, goggles, hold simulation model guns, and shoot at each other with BB bullets. Fans can be found in every country.

After all, no matter which country you are in, you can find a large number of men who are interested in cars, guns and balls.

As the saying goes, where there is demand, there is supply. Since some people like to play with model guns, there will naturally be stores that specialize in providing model guns.

In the cognitive space, [cognition] is very important. You don't need to hold a real gun, as long as the other party [thinks you are holding a real gun], it will be fine. In other words, as long as you hold a realistic model gun, it will be recognized as a real gun in the cognitive space.

You don't even need to buy bullets, because every time you fight an enemy, they will think it's a real gun and they will think it's full of bullets. I have to say, it's a very convenient setting.

For this reason, the degree of simulation of the model gun is very important.

But... what many people don't know is that it is very difficult to make firearm models realistic due to the policies of the upper echelons. You can refer to the electronic shooting peripherals of various game consoles for this. If you have watched nostalgic programs, you will find that the guns in the game peripherals are very realistic at the beginning, but later on, in order to avoid various public pressures, they had to be changed to look like real firearms that can be distinguished at a glance.

Therefore, it is a bit troublesome to get this kind of super-realistic gun model...

This store is the version of the answer given by Amamiya Ren.

It is indeed a bit expensive, but it is worth it.

Moreover, for some reason, there is a prison-style iron fence gate in the alley outside the store, but there are no iron fences on both sides, making it difficult to understand what kind of avant-garde design concept this is.

Jiang Tianwei always felt that this door was very similar to the door that Amemiya Lian was kicked in by the little girl, but he couldn't open it after pulling it, so he had to give up.

Originally, this time period is the time when students go to school, employees go to work, and idle people take a rest. In addition, this store is very remote, so naturally no one is interested in it.

Jiang Tianwei pushed the door open and looked behind the glass counter. A male shop owner wearing a baseball cap and a thick jacket was lying on the back of a chair with his feet carelessly resting on the counter. He lowered his head and seemed to be taking a nap.

Although his face was blocked by the baseball cap and I couldn't see clearly, I always felt that this person exuded a terrifying aura, like a ferocious lion. Even though he was sleeping, he still made people feel nervous.

However, Jiang Tianwei is no longer the poor boy he was back then. Now he has seen the world. How could he be scared away by others?

However, considering the high pressure of work in this era, Jiang Tianwei did not wake up the boss, but walked around here alone, planning to ask the price after finding the gun he liked.

Just like everyone's impression of survival game stores, this place is filled with gun models, and at first glance it looks like an arms store. Rows of high-quality guns are hung on the walls, but it's a pity that Jiang Tianwei is not a military fan and can't accurately call out their models.

Although he had played mobile games with gun anthropomorphism, this kind of game, right? Those who understand it will understand it. Outsiders must have just looked at the girl holding the gun, and definitely didn't pay attention to the details of the gun itself.

There are also some pistol models in the cabinet, and even a well-made military dagger. A closer look reveals that the blade is smooth, probably just for the atmosphere. There is also a fully armed mannequin in the store, with a full set of modern individual combat equipment, which is very handsome.

Jiang Tianwei was now in a dilemma. Although he wanted to choose a gun to make up for the lack of long-range power...but...what should he choose?

Indecisiveness - attack!

He now wants a sniper rifle, like in the anti-Japanese drama, where he can kill the Japanese machine gunner with one shot from 800 miles away, and he also wants a submachine gun, pretending to be Sylvester Stallone or Schwarzenegger, and he can also be Sylvester Stallone or Schwarzenegger, and shoot a round of random shots with dual machine guns. Or, just a single-soldier rocket launcher, when in doubt, just use RPG! Or, can he also have a pistol? Just like the commander in the anti-Japanese drama, the small pistol is not very powerful, but it is so exciting to issue orders and command the army to clean up the battlefield!

While thinking about all sorts of things in his mind, he strolled around the armory... looking at each item one by one, and suddenly, an inconspicuous rifle in the corner caught his attention...

It's hard to explain what this feeling is like...

In most novels, when the male protagonist goes to the blacksmith shop, he will always have a telepathic connection with a certain weapon for various reasons. This piece of scrap metal is often a super artifact that no one knows about...

Although Jiang Tianwei's feelings were not so mysterious, he did feel a vague palpitation in his chest when he looked at the gun...

He picked up the rifle casually, played with it in his hand, and imagined himself as a sharpshooter, posing with the rifle...

"Did you like that? You're quite knowledgeable, kid."

From behind him, a man's deep voice came faintly, which frightened Jiang Tianwei...

(So ​​you didn’t sleep! My goodness, then my silly face while posing must have been seen by everyone!)

Jiang Tianwei felt his face turn red and he started coughing awkwardly...

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 228 The Most Suitable Gun

Being seen in such an embarrassing pose is like a patient who has just recovered from his chuunibyou disease and then has a relapse, and it is just as embarrassing to be seen by others...

Jiang Tianwei coughed to cover up his shame, and quickly talked nonsense, trying to turn the page...

"Boss, what kind of gun is this?"

As he spoke, Jiang Tianwei turned around and saw that the boss had not moved at all, still sitting with his legs crossed and looking cold. At first glance, he thought he was sleeping, but it was not until then that Jiang Tianwei noticed the sharp eyes under the baseball cap, like a beast.

"Chinese guns."

The shop owner raised his chin and recited the gun's data as if he was reciting a text: "It's nicknamed [Hanyang-made], with a caliber of 7.92 mm and a total length of 955 mm. The theoretical maximum range is 1800 meters, but the actual range is 1300 meters. The ammunition capacity is five rounds, and the prototype is the German 1888 rifle. It's a bolt-action rifle."

There was no emotion in his tone, and this style of not wanting to say a word was far from the smiling service advocated by various modern shops. It could even be said to be contrary to it. However, it was this frugality with words that gave Jiang Tianwei a flavor of a peerless martial arts master who lived in seclusion in the city like in martial arts novels.

"Buy?"

the store manager asked.

Jiang Tianwei smiled.

As a Chinese, his answer is of course -

"Not buying."

Even an outsider like Jiang Tianwei can tell at a glance that this weapon is a toy gun. The enemies in the cognitive space are not fools and will certainly not be fooled.

What he needs is a highly realistic firearm...

And if you want to buy this... you need special connections.

"I need a high-fidelity one."

"Unfortunately, I don't have anything like that here."

The store manager's tone was calm, without any fluctuation at all, as if he had never sold such a high-fidelity gun before.

"Really? But I heard that when the police came to check on you, you put a realistic-looking replica gun in a paper bag and gave it to a student to take away."

"Nonsense, how come I don't know about this."

"They say that the rich tend to forget things. How about checking the surveillance video to confirm?"

"Oh, what you say is really interesting - OK, let's take a look."

The shop owner finally put his legs down, stood up, and led Jiang Tianwei into the house... He opened the door to the basement and asked Jiang Tianwei to go down first. Jiang Tianwei was also bold and walked in front directly. Unexpectedly, the shop owner walked behind him, closed the door with a bang, and then clicked it and locked it directly.

Then, he stretched out his big hand. The basement was very dark, with only a not-so-bright light in front, emitting a warm orange light. In this case, if the person in front tried to turn around and fight back, there would be only one result! That is, the eyes that had just adapted to the light would see a dark corridor at first glance, and the entire field of vision would be dark!

Although it won't reach the exaggerated level of blindness, it can definitely greatly disrupt the opponent's vision.

The shop owner used the military grappling techniques and grabbed Jiang Tianwei's shoulder!

However, Jiang Tianwei reacted faster than him, as if he had a premonition. Without even turning his head, he grabbed the shopkeeper with both hands, half turned his body, and threw a fierce elbow towards the shopkeeper's chest!

This time, he turned half of his body to the side, just avoiding the attack on his shoulder, and counterattacked at the same time. The manager's eyes narrowed slightly because he was walking behind and the door was locked. He had no room to dodge. In a hurry, he kicked Jiang Tianwei in the ribs!

(Oops!)

As soon as this kick came out, the owner thought it was bad.

Of course, his skills were not acquired out of thin air. They were also trained for fighting. He originally just wanted to catch the boy and interrogate him, and didn't want to make a big fuss. But the boy's counterattack just now was too exquisite, so he used his real skills without paying attention. He used all his strength in this kick. At the least, the boy's ribs would be broken, and at the worst, the rib fragments might be inserted into the heart and lungs, which would be fatal!

At this moment, he pleaded from the bottom of his heart, Jiang Tianwei was in good health, please don't die!

However, what he didn't expect was that as soon as he used this killing move, the boy seemed to have eyes on his back and took a nimble step forward to avoid the kick.

Then, his spinning elbow strike, which was half sideways, stopped in mid-air. His right elbow stretched back and suddenly, like a snake, swung out an arm and punched the shop owner's thigh!

The blow was so fast and fierce that the shop owner felt that his full-strength kick was lifted into thin air, and there was no force point at all. Then his thigh was hit hard. Under the compulsion of a strange force, his leg, which was raised high, fell heavily to the ground, beyond his expectation...

Those who have watched Mr. Zhao and Mr. Fan's Spring Festival Gala skits should know that this stomping of feet, you will also feel numb if you stomp! What's more, this stomping of feet was unprepared. With a thud, the store owner's leather boots stomped hard on the ground. The force was mutual. The hard ground immediately fed back the received force, and the store manager felt that his entire leg was numb!

Only then did Jiang Tianwei come to his senses, and he threw a lightning punch at the shop owner's face. The position control was very precise, and the fist was only a piece of paper away from the shop owner's nose! The strong wind caused by the high-speed punch even blew off his hat...

"...Tsk, are the young people nowadays so skilled?"

The shop owner was obviously a hero, because he knew the situation and raised his hands to show surrender.

Jiang Tianwei shrugged and said, "I thought you would never believe me."

"I do. Why not? No matter how corrupt those people in the police station are, they can't find a high school student to test my opinion... Tsk, next time I have to tell that worker to keep his mouth shut."

As he said this, he dragged one leg and limped down the stairs, leading Jiang Tianwei to the underground workshop.

This place was obviously much messier than the ground, with gun parts and various tools of unknown use everywhere. Although there were a few guns lying in the cabinet or thrown somewhere, their quality was much higher than those "pampered" guns above.

The store manager opened a cabinet, grabbed a rifle from inside and threw it to Jiang Tianwei. He reached out and grabbed it in mid-air, and took a closer look. Wasn't this the Hanyang-made rifle that he had seen in the store before?

However, whether it is the workmanship or the heavy feel, it is exactly the same as a real gun...

"Since the worker introduced you, I won't hide anything. Special offer, 300,000. Or how about this? Do you want to come and work for me too?"

The store manager said this, looking at Jiang Tianwei with interest.

Jiang Tianwei thought for a moment and shrugged: "Forget about working part-time. My spare time is still very important. When I feel like it, I might come and help out - so, can I pay by credit card here?"
