Start in Night City

Chapter 65

Prosthetists will also not follow such rules because they will lose clients.

Just take it if you have money, why bother struggling with money.

Anyway, what kind of prosthetic body should be installed is also the customer's request.

…

After a while, Victor recovered from the shock.

He took off his sunglasses, looked at Lidya Su seriously and said: "I have a question, why are you doing this?"

"Although it's just the first time we've met, I've heard of you before when Jack said he wanted to bring you to see me."

"Is your relationship with Jack and the other two friends you mentioned so strong? Is it worth spending so much money?"

Facing Victor's doubts, Su Xiao smiled and answered with only two words.

"worth."

Seeing Su Xiao give the answer without hesitation, Lao Wei sighed.

"What you said is so heart-warming. Jack is lucky to have a partner like you."

Su Xiao shrugged: "Then maybe it's time to take off the warm baby you put on your back, doctor."

"You are so funny, but don't use such harsh names. Just like Jack, just call me Lao Wei."

…

PS1: Yesterday I received 230 monthly tickets, 7728 rewards, and 150 blades.

According to rounding, I owe 6,000 words.

Current progress (4000/58000).

This chapter is a guaranteed update, and there will be an additional chapter tonight.

Chapter 65: Master, stop reading (4K)

"The best prosthetic body so far is the latest fourth-generation implant (legendary), but the fourth generation is not easy to get."

"If you need money, just ask, Lao Wei."

"This is not a matter of money. Many prosthetic bodies, such as the top model of "Sian Westan", will never be exported and are not available on the black market. But what Jack wants now is "Krenzikov". I'll try my best, maybe I can get it. "

"If that doesn't work, then you may have to find a middleman. After all, you know, I'm just a prosthetic doctor."

After the two discussed it, Lidya Su and Victor walked back.

Jack was fiddling with the tools that Victor used to help people perform surgery.

A scalpel was accidentally dropped on the floor.

When he saw the two men coming back, he quickly picked up the scalpel and put it in the tool box.

Pretending to be nonchalant, he said, "What are you talking about? You've been here for so long and you still keep it so mysterious?"

Su Xiao and Lao Wei looked at each other and smiled.

"It's nothing. Victor and I just asked for information about the prosthetic body."

Jack showed a surprised expression: "Didn't you say you don't want to undergo prosthetic transformation? Have you changed your mind?"

"No, I just understand."

Victor pointed to the operating chair and said to Jack.

"Jack, you lie down on the chair and I'll check you first."

Jack lay down on the chair obediently like a primary school boy.

This isn't his first time here.

When Victor spoke, he pulled out the personal connection cable from his wrist and plugged it into Lao Wei's device.

Old Wei moved a chair and sat in front of Jack.

Then he looked up again, and Lidya Su, who came over and wanted to take a look, said: "Would you like to move a chair for you?"

Lidya Su waved her hand.

"No, I can just stand."

So Victor began to examine it intently.

He looked at the data and images displayed on the display screen after scanning Jack's body.

The frown deepened.

"You've been drinking a lot lately, and your liver doesn't want it anymore?"

Jack scratched his head guiltily: "Isn't there nothing we can do? Besides, if it's really broken, we can just replace it with a new artificial liver, that's fine."

Victor shook his head in disgust.

"It's easy to say, it doesn't cost money? Alcohol is not a good thing, just a moderate amount is enough. Drinking so much will damage your liver, and you have to spend money to get a new one. Why bother?"

"Wait, don't move, I haven't finished checking yet."

"Fortunately, you don't smoke, so at least your lungs and heart are still healthy."

"Well, the kidneys are okay. At least he looks like a thirty-year-old man. At least he's not like those corporate dogs in suits and ties. He's young and his health is as bad as that of a man in his fifties or sixties."

Jack was a little surprised: "You still have company dogs coming to see you? Don't they have medical insurance?"

"What do you think, apart from Kangtao, which subscribes to the gold membership package of the Trauma Team for its own employees, other giant companies don't have this benefit. "

"Want medical insurance? Yes, you can pay for it yourself."

"What's more, not everyone can work in a giant company. Those ordinary companies that are not giants are even worse."

"More work, less money, no overtime pay, and you have to listen to your boss talking about life and ideals all day long, asking you to pay and contribute to the company."

Jack's stomach ached as he listened.

I just feel pain, it hurts too much.

"I don't know what they are doing in that skyscraper all day long, and how they got their bodies like this."

"But you have to say that they are all doing it for their careers. How many people have been busy all their lives, but they are still poor and confused."

"You said they were fishing at work, and their bodies were broken again."

Seeing that Victor was still planning to continue speaking, Jack quickly raised his hands in surrender: "Stop reading, Master, stop reading."

…

"Okay, okay, get up."

Victor took out a brand new, unopened box.

Open it and take out an inhaler.

Leave it to Jack who climbed up from the operating chair.

"Suck it once now, then every six hours, and then again, three times a day. Come back to me after you finish."

Jack took the inhaler and took a sip first, then asked, "What is this for?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to pretend to be "Krenchikov"? This is to allow your body to adapt in advance and minimize side effects and rejection reactions. "

"It's really reliable. Thanks, Lao Wei."

Seeing that Jack was so excited that he subconsciously wanted to take another breath, Victor quickly stopped him.

"Follow the doctor's advice. Inhaling more or less is harmful to the body. You and Su go ahead and I will call you when the goods arrive."

…

Farewell to Victor, the two left the underground clinic.

When leaving, a mother and daughter happened to come down the stairs.

When the mother and daughter saw Lidya Su and Jack coming up, they instinctively bowed slightly.

Probably Japanese.

Out of politeness, the two nodded.

The mother and daughter passed by Lidya Su and Jack, walked down the stairs, and entered the gloomy clinic.

The atmosphere in the clinic made the little girl a little scared and hid behind the woman.

Victor, who had just turned on the screen and hadn't watched the boxing match for a few seconds, raised his head when he saw someone else coming in.

"You are..." Victor was stunned for a moment.

There is a familiar feeling.

The woman bowed deeply: "Victor-san, long time no see."

Victor took off his glasses, wiped them with a cloth, and put them back on: "It's been a long time indeed."

His eyes fell on the little girl, who cowered and hid behind her mother: "Is this your daughter?"

"Yes, Ryoko, come and say hello."

Seeing that the little girl had been hiding tightly behind her mother, Victor turned on all the fluorescent lights in the room.

Let the dark clinic suddenly become brightly lit.

Then, he came to the mother and daughter and half-crouched in front of the little girl.

Take a lollipop out of your pocket.

The little girl's attention was immediately attracted by the lollipop.

But still a little scared.

Under the encouraging eyes of his mother, he finally plucked up the courage and took the lollipop from Victor's hand.

"Thank you uncle."

Victor smiled and touched the little girl's head, then stood up and asked the woman: "Miss Qianhua, I heard that you are working with the Tiger Claw Gang now?"

"When you come to my place, you must not only be catching up with me, an old friend, right?"

"Why, doesn't the Tiger Claw Gang have its own prosthetic doctor?"

Qianhua shook her head.

"In fact, that's why I'm here. I hope you can take out the tracker installed on us."

…

A week later.

victor's clinic

Inside.

Lao Wei moved the display screen away.

Stand up and take a few steps back.

"how are you feeling?"

V sat up from the operating table and looked around.
