Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 233 No Trace
To be precise, the basement of this warehouse is the safe house.

However, although it is a basement, its actual floor space is larger than the warehouse above. It has all kinds of living and entertainment facilities, and all the necessary defense methods are available, even equipped with a small arsenal.

As soon as Ke Lan walked into the safe house, the hound and others surrounded him impatiently, asking about things in the East Ninth District.

Ke Lan didn't hide anything other than the matter of the Undead Crew, the Holy Word, and the crystal. As for Yui Arasaka's death, it was directly attributed to the "gene collapse".

"That bitch... so dead is too cheap for her!" The hound said angrily, "But Victoria is a man indeed."

"Although I think your description is not very good for women," Ke Lan sighed, "but she is indeed a warrior worthy of respect."

"It's a pity that such things will not be known to the public." The hound shrugged, "In the hearts of most people, the Security Bureau is still a notorious spy organization."

"I think those agents who joined the job should have such awareness..." After Ke Lan finished speaking, he suddenly turned to Ivan and asked, "How is the situation at the clinic going?"

"It's still a mess. Among the arrows used by the attacker before, there is an explosive arrow, which is no less powerful than a defensive grenade." Ivan shook his head.

"I need an X-ray device, Ivan, can you get it?"

"X-ray? Why do you want that thing?" Ivan asked a little puzzled.

"You guys remember that Manstein guy?"

"Of course I remember. I heard from Machino that that guy lied to us and brought out a certain treasure in his stomach, but he was found by the people of the Arasaka Consortium." The hound's tone was full of disdain. I said, that greedy and stupid guy didn't deserve to die at all, if it wasn't for him, what happened in East Ninth District would never have happened."

"But that thing is now in my body."

"That thing? Which thing?...Wait a minute, you mean...that thing that Manstein brought out?"

"Hmm." Ke Lan nodded with a wry smile, "People from heretic sects seem to regard this thing as a sacred thing, but I don't even know what it is."

"How did this thing get into your body? You... Did you eat it?" The hound stared at Ke Lan's stomach with rounded eyes.

"No...it was when I was fighting with Ziyan..." Ke Lan stretched out his left hand, but now there is no trace of any traces in his palm, "The black liquid that spewed out of the meat tube was contaminated. On my hand, I think it should be at that time, the thing mixed with these liquids got into my palm, but the problem is that I didn’t feel anything at that time, and I couldn’t find the wound on the palm.”

"In your palm?" The hound didn't hesitate, grabbed Ke Lan's palm, and pressed his rough fingertips carefully on Ke Lan's palm a few times, "Why can't you touch anything?"

"This is the thing that bothers me the most... I was going to have an operation to take the thing out after I got out, but it seems to be wandering in my body, and now I don't know where the thing got into, That's why I decided to do a full-body scan with X-rays."

"Although my clinic is not available now, I know a friend." At this time, Ivan said, "He is also a part-time hunter with a private clinic like me, and he just went out to explore the ruins these days. , In his clinic, apart from X-rays, CT and other equipment are also available."

"But he's out, how do you get in his clinic?" the Hound asked.

"He entrusted me to take care of his clinic before he went out this time. This is the key card." Ivan took out a card from his pocket, "He posted my contact information on the door of the clinic, although it is usually No patients will come to see him, but in case there are patients with injuries or relapses, then this preparation will come in handy.”

Ivan flicked the card and continued: "After all, as a colleague who often exchanges medical skills and research experience with him, I am the person who knows the conditions of the patients under his hands the most clearly besides himself. Instead of going to another doctor, you might as well come to me."

"Okay, take Ke Lan there quickly... don't get into trouble when the thing gets to a vital place that can't be removed by surgery!" the hound said hastily.

……

Soon, Ke Lan and Ivan returned to the car, followed by Natasha as an assistant-according to Ke Lan's plan, after scanning the location of the crystal, if the operation conditions are met , then perform surgery immediately to avoid long nights and dreams.

The clinic where Ivan's friend works is located in the North Fourth District. In order to reduce the possibility of being tracked, Ke Lan and the others first stopped by the "Raven Black Market" where anonymous credit memory cards can be used for transactions. The three split up Action, Ivan and Natasha went to buy a batch of tools and consumables needed for the operation, and Ke Lan bought an unremarkable second-hand hoverboard.

In the words of the hunting dog, that military vehicle is too conspicuous. Even if Ke Lan turns off the communication equipment and the positioning device, every time he passes an intersection with a surveillance camera, the license plate number will be recorded, and he will investigate Going down, Ke Lan and the others can easily find out where they have gone and what they have done. There are no secrets at all.

Leaving the armored hover vehicle on a small road in the neighborhood near the Raven Black Market, Ke Lan and the three drove a new car to the clinic in North Fourth District. As Ivan said, the door of the unmanned clinic was closed , There is a notice of suspension of business on the door, and at the end of the notice, Ivan's contact information is also left.

"Hurry up." Ivan opened the door of the clinic with the key card, "If the thing can wander in the body, it is likely to enter your blood vessels... If it enters the heart with the blood , then the trouble will be big."

In fact, the heart is still not the worst. If it is not possible, just remove the whole heart and replace it with a human-made substitute, but if it gets into the brain-there is no substitute for the brain.

But when Ivan scanned Ke Lan's body with X-rays and CT scans, he found that there was no foreign body in Ke Lan's body!
"That is to say, it's missing?" Ke Lan stood beside Ivan, looking at the image on the screen, he couldn't help frowning.

"No, there is another place I haven't looked for." Ivan shook his head solemnly, "It may be hidden in your digestive system, mixed with food residues and feces... From now on, you have to fast Water for a period of time, and then I will conduct a detailed examination with a gastroscope and a colonoscope."

"If you can't find it like this..." Ivan didn't continue, but the conclusion was self-evident.
