Mei Man: I drew Superman during the Great Depression

Chapter 13 Contact
"Mr. Luper, congratulations, the wound is healing better than expected..."

Anti-World, Metropolitan General Hospital.

After checking the condition of Colin's wound, the doctor gave the latest diagnosis.

"I believe it won't be long before you can be discharged from the hospital."

"Thank you, Doctor."

Lying on the hospital bed, Colin nodded.

Watching the doctor who made the ward rounds leave, Ke Lin raised his hands and moved his shoulders to feel the recovery of his body. Except for the tingling pain that still came from the wound, in fact, his body is basically almost recovered .

The reason why he recovered so quickly, Colin guessed that it was more or less related to his time travel in the pros and cons world.

Every time he wakes up from the positive world, he can feel the pain in the wound site lessen.

It's a pity that this recovery speed is still within the range of normal people, and it is not exaggerated to the extent that some people heal with the blink of an eye.

Therefore, Colin's hospital life in the anti-world will continue.

"...According to a new poll, the New York City Democratic Party's female mayoral candidate, who once led by a large margin, has slipped from 24% to 15%, and is replaced by a woman who has been showing good momentum before. Wilson Fisk, on the other side, won first place with 21 percent."

"The poll analyst said that the main reason for the change in polls is the recently exposed bribery scandal and the suspicion of discrimination against minorities. Part of the voters supported."

"This is already the second candidate whose scandals have been exposed in the current New York City Mayor election process. The former New York City Cleaning Bureau Director was exposed before this. It is precisely because of frequent scandals that also make Many New Yorkers call this election the most contentious mayoral election ever."

"If you look at the current poll trend, Wilson Fisk is likely to become the new mayor of New York City this term."

Time did not stop because of Colin's hospitalization.

In the news, the latest developments in the New York City mayoral race are reported, with businessman candidate Wilson Fisk 'surprisingly' taking the lead.

It's just that there are many deliberate elements behind the 'accident' of this poll.

Or only Wilson Fisk himself knows.

Colin looked at the photos of Wilson Fisk or Jin Bin running for office, thinking silently in his heart.

Put down the newspaper in your hand and focus on the text in front of you.

[Black Iron Mark (1/10)]

【Faith (95/1000)】

The hard work of the newsboy not only increased the sales of the "Courier" by [-] copies, but also increased his "faith" by two points.

After figuring out how to obtain [Faith], Colin naturally focused on the other side, which is the acquisition of [Time Fragments].

Originally, he planned to wait until he was discharged from the hospital and return to the Bugle Daily to try on his boss, that is, Jameson.

It's just that there seems to be a more suitable target now.

"...fractured spinal cord fusion... this may sound harsh, but this is a groundbreaking technology... stimulated regeneration of the central nervous system, a technology that could save thousands of lives...you think I have to prove it to him What... please, I am the authority..."

Metropolitan General Hospital, Emergency Room.

Stephen Strange took off his mask, and said in a natural tone in the corridor.

"Well, I admit you're great, Mr. Authority."

On the side, Christine Palmer, who is also a surgeon, spread his hands and replied in an unbearable tone.

"Don't think I can't hear the sarcasm in your tone, Christine."

Looking at Christine with raised eyebrows, Strange said while gesturing with his fingers.

"Really, I thought I had hidden it well..."

Regarding this, Christine deliberately said in a very 'fake' tone.

"I guess, this is another kind of irony... Did I mess with you today?"

"Isn't it too much that you haven't offended me? Strange, you're a walking mean machine."

"Wow, I'm a little flattered by your description."

From the corridor of the emergency room all the way out, Strange heard Christine's description of himself, with a speechless expression on his face, he stopped in his tracks and was about to continue to say something.

"Doctor Strange!"

Suddenly, a voice from behind interrupted his words.

"you are?"

Turning around, I saw a young man in hospital uniform standing there.

"It's a great honor to meet you. I have heard your speech on laminectomy live. It is very groundbreaking. The content of the speech is still fresh in my memory..."

Stepping up to Strange, the man stretched out his palm and said excitedly.

"is it?"

Looking down at the man's outstretched palm, Strange and Christine at the side looked at each other silently, then reached out and shook his hand lightly with a look of hesitation.

"Thank you."

After shaking hands briefly, Strange looked at the hospital gown the man was wearing, raised his eyebrows and asked, "But, what are you?"

"A little surprise."

Without saying anything more about his situation, the man glanced at Strange and Christine in front of him, and immediately said, "Then, I won't bother you, Doctor Strange."

Seeing the back of the man leaving, Strange shook his head and was about to continue the previous topic.

"... Strange... Strange... Strange..."

"...remember...reality...is not...what you see...wrong..."

Intermittent murmurs suddenly sounded in my ears, and these voices fluctuated from far to near, just like the noisy noise received by the radio.

After shaking his head, Strange stretched out his hands to cover his head.

In a trance, he saw that his slender fingers were covered with dense and ugly centipede-like scars.

"No, no, my hand..."

Looking at the pair of scarred palms, Strange couldn't help showing a frightened expression on his face.

"Strange, Strange!"

At this moment, Christine's voice pulled him back from the panic.

"Christine."

When he came back to his senses, Strange saw the familiar environment around him, as well as his slender fingers that were still intact, with a dazed expression on his face.

"Are you all right, Strange?"

Seeing the dazed expression on Strange's face, Christine asked worriedly.

"Whoo~"

Taking a deep breath and clenching his palms, Strange shook his head and said.

"I'm fine, maybe it's because I'm too tired from the operation, just take a rest."
