Chapter 104 Black Skull Jane Jumps Out and the Undead

".Stop it."

"Sir, I've got the clue! Give me another week, no, four days! I can dig out this smuggling line completely by myself!"

"Stop investigating."

"This is not a discussion, but an order. Second-level agent Jane Jump Out, immediately stop your actions and hand over the relevant tasks."

".Sir?"

"I can only tell you that it's not too late to stop now. Let me apply for a week's paid leave for you. Is that okay with you?"

"Someone asked you to be a lobbyist? The leader of the organ smugglers? Or their supporters behind the scenes?"

"Jane jumps out! Watch your words!"

"It's you who should be noticed! Cliff! Look at the police inspector badge on you! How many people have their organs dug out and their bodies thrown into trash cans in Deep Moss every month? Don't you know? It's because there are people willing to pay a high price to buy them that gangs keep doing this! That's why there are people who keep taking risks to smuggle!"

"Why do you have to focus on Deepmoss? Can't you pay attention to our efforts in Gog and Rota?"

"Fuck you. Why don't you just say Baimen District?"

"Well, the Security Bureau is only responsible for the outer perimeter of the Baimen District. Each community has its own armed security team."

"That's enough. I'm not here to listen to your cerebral palsy jokes."

"Jane Yue, please get out of here! Think about the consequences! Do you really think you are righteous? Don't forget who is paying your salary!"

"Your father is not righteous at all. He just wants to blow the heads of those smugglers apart and let them see with their own eyes how their brains are stuffed into their mouths."

".I order you in the name of Inspector Plosser Security, Jane, jump out! Now! Immediately! Immediately--"

"——You can stop me, but only if I die!"

When the electronic clock on the bedside table started to ring.

The man slowly opened his artificial eye, and a scarlet light flickered for a moment in the depths of his pupil.

He threw back the blanket and sat up.

Even though it had been reinforced once, when the man turned over and got out of bed, the whole bed still creaked under the weight.

Standing in front of the floor-length mirror, a tall silhouette is reflected in the mirror.

With a height of nearly 1.9 meters, the man has a sturdy physique, as if he were made of steel - perhaps not "as if", because you can see that almost all of his vital parts have obvious signs of "subcutaneous armor" implanted.

These "subcutaneous armors" made mainly of lightweight titanium alloy and rigid Kevlar fabric are enough to withstand most light firearms fire.

What also caught people's attention were the man's two prosthetic arms that almost burst through his sleeves.

"Big Smash", produced by [Nanyu Heavy Industry], is a combat prosthesis that is completely specialized in combat, and the price of one is as high as 300,000 credit points.

High-strength carbon muscle bundles, hydraulic power devices, full nerve connections, special alloy materials, automatic ballistic aiming. Each prosthetic limb also has three built-in thermal-melt bombs. A single shot at the exact force point can bring down a building and burn the people inside into charcoal.

The man looked in the mirror for a while, put on the vest next to him, put on his coat and went out.

As soon as the door was opened, the strong smell of low-quality industrial alcohol and undried condoms hit me in the face. Not far away, in a corridor covered with all kinds of graffiti and slogans, several young men with oil paint on their faces leaned together, facing a piece of white powder spread out on a piece of paper, each sipping carefully, one sip at a time.

One of the young men heard the noise, subconsciously raised his head and squinted his eyes.

Perhaps because he ate too much sugar, the young man's body kept twitching slightly and his face had an abnormal flush.

then.

Under the astonished gaze of his companions, he swayed his body, laughed and stood in front of the man.

"Hey, isn't this our respected Jane the Leap Officer?"

He twisted his powdered fingers, sniffed them, took a deep breath, and grinned at the latter:
"Hey, we're just eating candy, why don't you arrest us?"

He swayed and chuckled, "Oh, it's my fault. I almost forgot that you seemed to have been fired from the Security Bureau a long time ago. Now you are..."

The cold touch slammed into the young man's mouth.

click.

Amid the blood flowing from the broken teeth, Jane jumped out, twisted his neck, and turned off the safety of the "Purgatory" heavy shotgun in his hand.

"—keep on, you little bastard."

Jian jumped out with a grim smile, and pressed the muzzle of his gun against the young man's mouth.

The latter seemed to be suddenly awakened from a dream, and suddenly realized what he had just done. His eyes instantly became terrified, and he begged for mercy incoherently.

"Are you scared now? Why didn't you beg for mercy when you were high just now?"

Jian jumped out and laughed, then looked at the others who were standing there frozen, not daring to make a sound: "I will smash all your teeth in front of your 'brothers'."

But then, as if he had suddenly heard someone's words, Jian Yuechu slowly frowned and said irritably, "Okay! I understand. I'll do as you say."

He suddenly pulled out "Purgatory", and before the young man could show any sign of relief, he grabbed the man's head and pressed him against the railing next to him, overlooking the area below from the fifth floor.

"Don't let me see you eating candy again, or I'll drag you here and throw you down - now get out!"

Seeing the burly man taking a step back, the other few people hurried forward, helped the still trembling young man up, and quickly disappeared into the corridor.

"."

Jane jumped out and looked at everyone coldly. After they disappeared completely, he stuffed "Purgatory" back into his coat, turned into the elevator at the side, and pressed the button for the first floor.

after an hour.

After paying an additional load maintenance fee because "Sorry, your quality exceeds the standard range", Jane jumped out of the driverless taxi of [Convens Mobility], put on his hood, and entered an alley in front.

After a series of turns, Jane jumped out, stopped, and knocked on the alloy door in front of him.

Above the alloy door, the camera turned briefly, informing the owner of the visitor's appearance - then, the alloy door opened silently.

"Old rules, Lemartin."

Jane jumped out through the corridor filled with sundries and boxes, took off her coat, and walked into the deep room with ease. She lay down on the operating bed which was still slightly stained with blood.

"Hey! I haven't finished cleaning yet!"

"Then wait until you're done with me, then wash together. It will also save you some disinfectant."

"You are challenging the principles of a doctor."

Not far away, a man who looked to be in his early fifties and was qualified to be called "old man" muttered something, sighed helplessly, pulled the shadowless lamp above the operating table over, pulled down the auxiliary electronic mirror on his head, and began to examine.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. There are so many bullet holes on the subcutaneous carapace. Are you going to destroy Mangxue's nest?"

“Do you think it’s realistic?”

·
"Let me check the implanted gland pump. Have you used up all the stimulants and neurostimulants? Don't blame me for not reminding you. Too much of this stuff can damage your brain."

"Then please change to a different model this time. You already have a 'Swift Dragon', right? Just use this one."

"Are you crazy? Xunlong, the ultimate stimulant, has a chance of killing someone with one shot! Palose is not a high-intensity battlefield, what are you going to use it for?" "Don't worry, I'll pay for it."

"Hey"

"It's troublesome."

"Ha, fine. I'm the one making the money anyway. If you insist on seeking death, I won't stop you."

·
"Close your eyes and relax for a while. I'm going to do a thorough examination. As a doctor, I'd like to ask you, will you give me anesthesia this time?"

"Do not hit."

"as you like."

·
"——Okay, get up."

After an unknown amount of time, Jane jumped out and opened her eyes again.

Lemartin undid his doctor's coat and sat down on a chair nearby, with a look of obvious fatigue on his face.

"I've replaced the severely damaged subcutaneous armor with new ones. There's nothing wrong with the alloy power skeleton. I just changed the parameters slightly. Several parts of the 'Big Smash' prosthetic were broken, and I've fixed them for you as well."

"The degree of prosthetics in your legs is too high. The nerve connection may occasionally have problems. I can't do anything about it. You should pay attention to it in your daily life."

"In addition, I have partially blocked your prosthetic link protocol and added a safety certification. It should be sufficient for general public inspections, but you have to remember this."

Jane jumped out and sat on the operating table, listening quietly.

After the other person finished the last sentence, he nodded slightly, stood up, and put his vest and jacket back on.

"Thank you. I'll deposit the money into your account the day after tomorrow at the latest."

As he spoke, he picked up the packed bag beside him and walked out the door.

".Wait a moment."

Watching the other person about to step out of the door, Lemartin suddenly spoke.

Jian jumped out and stopped, turning his head: "What's wrong? Are you still worried that I will default on my debt?"

"You know that's not what I meant to say, Jane."

Lemartin stood up, rubbing his brows: "Your condition is getting worse and worse."

"Really?" Jian Yuechu tilted his head and said with a smile, "I just went through a comprehensive maintenance, why do I feel that I am in better condition? Lemartin, are you so unconfident in your craftsmanship?"

"I am very confident in my cooking skills. The prosthetics I have adjusted are absolutely top-notch."

But Lemartin didn't laugh. He stared at the man in front of him and said word by word: "--But my scalpel can't do anything to a person's brain."

".Brain?"

He frowned as Jane leapt out and turned fully around.

"Lemartin, do you also think that I have a problem with my brain, so I was kicked out by the Security Bureau? Do you also think that I should have watched those bastards continue to smuggle organs?!"

"If I thought so, I would never have performed the implant surgery on you! At that time, the Security Bureau removed most of your prosthesis, fired you from your position, locked your authority, and threw you out on the street like a dog to die!"

Lemartin was furious when he heard this, and shouted, "If you hadn't saved me, who would have helped a bastard like you? The source and channel of your special prosthetic body is the accumulation of half a lifetime! If it weren't for me, you would have been skinned alive by your enemies and sent to the Children's Palace as an art exhibit!"

"Then why do you say there's something wrong with my brain?"

"Come here! Come here! Take a good look with your artificial eye!"

LeMartin rushed forward and stuffed a data tablet into the other's arms.

The images on the data tablet come from the surveillance cameras inside the clinic.

Looking at this scene, Jian Yuechu was slightly startled.

Through the surveillance camera, the man lying flat on the operating table with his eyes closed would speak from time to time to chat with the busy Lemartin - but apart from that, the man would occasionally turn his head to the other side and talk and laugh.

Like he was talking to someone else.

It's just that there was no one there.

"Jane, listen to me."

Lemartin's tone was obviously relaxed. He said softly, "Your current condition is too bad. No, it's more like this. In less than a year, you have increased your prosthetic level from 17% to 39%. It would be strange if there were no problems."

"Split personality and cognitive hallucinations are typical 'cyberpsychosis', and they are beginning to affect the patient's reality. You are at least in the middle stage."

Jane jumped out with a gloomy look and said nothing.

"But it's not too late now." Lemartin said: "Slowly remove part of the prosthesis, while receiving mental adjustments, taking medicine regularly, and then..."

“——That’s enough.”

Jane jumped out and uttered two words, shaking her head.

".ha."

Lemartin was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed.

"That's right. I was too talkative."

He took a few steps back, slowly sat back in his chair, and said softly:
"Have a nice day, then, Jane, and...your partner, Agent Maury Guest."

".Um."

Jane jumped out and exhaled, then nodded, "Then let's go. Goodbye, Lemartin."

After saying that, he strode out of the clinic without stopping.

After a long time.

A secret communication pop-up window appeared on the retina, interrupting the silence of the man at the dock.

He put out his cigarette, connected the phone, and said:
"——How is it going?"
