The Last Gentleman

Chapter 217: Team investigation

Views:

As Hrvoye reported the special autopsy methods and investigative findings, he was immediately granted the authority to dissect and investigate the latest bodies, and the city district would systematically cooperate with his autopsies.

Sunshine Hospital vacated one of its most advanced operating rooms for Mr. Hervoye to use. When the hospital asked if he needed an autopsy assistant, he decisively refused.

First, the crude stitching he had seen in the morgue before gave him a bad impression of the autopsy technicians here.

Second, White Robe Lotson’s previous performance was quite good, and he had formed a certain tacit understanding with him.

In addition, the reason why Hrvoye came here this time was to team up with this group of young people to jointly carry out the task issued by Zion.

Since he was very optimistic about Lotson, he might as well take this opportunity to train this young man who had mastered the secret technique of blood and was quite talented in autopsy.

The operating room is ready.

The gentleman in charge of corpse transportation in the city will deliver fresh corpses here as soon as possible.

But there are still some shortcomings here.

From the discovery and reporting of the body to the arrival and transfer of the gentleman, this process will take a lot of time... Although it can be guaranteed to be delivered to the hospital within half an hour, it cannot achieve the golden five minutes.

If we can get a corpse that has been dead for no more than five minutes and whose brain is functioning normally, the effect of assembling the living dead will be better.

At this moment, Yi Chen, who had not been assigned any tasks, took the initiative to propose:

"Mr. Hervoye, I can't help you much by staying here, so why don't I go and help you search for the 'instant dead body'

I happen to be good at sensing and have good vision, so I might be able to find the dead first."

"I'm going too!" Knight Barry knew nothing about surgery and anatomy. He even felt a little redundant since he came to the city.

"I can't guarantee your safety once you go out."

"We will apply for the 'corpse transport' qualification at the hospital and try to follow the main force. So far, there have been no reports of corpse transporters going missing or dying, so it should be fine."

"Okay, don't force it."

Hervoye's mind was not too focused on the younger generation. He had now vaguely found a breakthrough, and all his attention was focused on the corpse.

Just as Yi Chen turned to leave,

Wearing surgical gown, Lotson suddenly turned his neck 90 degrees, smiled and waved, "William, be careful..."

Yi Chen quickly registered at Sunshine Hospital as Hrvoye's medical assistant and obtained the qualification of "corpse transport".

I also asked the hospital for a large register containing the information of the deceased.

Without any intention of joining other corpse carriers, Yi Chen walked towards the hospital gate alone.

Knight Barry also hurriedly followed, "By the way, don't we need to act together with those transporters?"

"It's meaningless to act together. If we want to get a fresh corpse within five minutes, we have to skip some steps. We have to directly visit the 'citizens who are likely to die'.

After all, this is a super five-star difficulty mission, how can we get through it safely without taking risks? "

I don't know why.

After seeing the zombies who committed suicide by jumping off the building, Yi Chen felt an inexplicable sense of excitement and felt that he had come to the right place.

Barry nodded in a naive manner. "That's true. The only one who has made a contribution now is Lotson. If the two of us do nothing, we may only get a few silver coins and a rag in the end, and all the good things will go to that white-haired guy."

"Barry, be careful of that guy Lotson."

Barry was a little confused by Yi Chen's sudden words. Although he personally didn't like Lotson's personality, there was no need to be careful of him.

"What's going on? Didn't you two sign up as a team?"

Yi Chen told him that he and Lotson had met many times on the lower streets, and that he might even be followed by Lotson. This statement made Barry even more puzzled.

"Ah? You've always felt that there's something wrong with this guy, but you still chose to team up with him, and even tackled this kind of mission of unknown difficulty together... I don't quite understand."

"It is because of this difficulty that I chose to work with Lotson. Normal difficulty would not be able to uncover his disguise. Of course, all this is based on the premise that my intuition is correct.

After all, Lotson has been audited many times by the organization and no problems were found.”

Knight Barry has his own thoughts. "I tend to think that Lotson was deeply traumatized by the failure of the mission and the death of all his teammates... He may have some quirks. After encountering you during his low period, he tried to follow and observe you, and wanted to team up with you to fill the shadow in his heart."

"I hope so. Let's not talk about him for now! He probably wouldn't dare to do anything while staying with Mr. Hervoye.

For now, let's focus on the incident itself. Let's go to the west residential area today."

"Don't go to a concentration camp or a hotel? There are more people in those places, so the probability of death should be higher."

Yi Chen directly slapped the thick registration book in his hand on Barry's armor.

“Among the deceased registered by the hospital, 61.5% of the deceased were from the West District, and the other 69.7% of the deceased were found by gentlemen during searches, and all of them were living alone or homeless.

So far, the probability of death in centralized management areas or group buildings is only 8.1%.

From the data, it can be inferred that individuals who are alone are more likely to die.”

"Huh?" Barry took the thick register and flipped through it several times, but he didn't find the statistics Yi Chen mentioned. "Where are these data you mentioned recorded? Why can't I see them?"

"I figured it out myself."

"Didn't you just get this from the hospital? When did you count it?"

"Wasn't I flipping through a book while we were chatting? My intelligence has reached its limit and my job happens to be related to reading. For books like this that don't require deep understanding, I can completely memorize them just by glancing at each page."

"Fu~ck!"

Barry had a physical confrontation with Yi Chen over the qualification for the relic incident.

Coming from a knight family with a strong physique, he couldn't gain any advantage over Yi Chen.

I thought the other person was also a gentleman of exceptional physique, but now he says that his intelligence is already at its maximum.

"William, you guys are not trying to break through the dual attributes, right?"

“I guess so.”

"Have you found a suitable relic?"

"Luckily, I found it."

Seeing Yi Chen's normal and even relaxed answer, Barry felt as if his heart was being hammered, "Too exaggerated... You haven't even graduated from the academy yet and you've already reached the dual attribute limit and obtained the corresponding relic.

Wow! If I had known, I would not have signed up. Who can bear this kind of blow~"

Barry put on his bucket helmet to hide his depressed mood.

Just as the two were about to walk out of the hospital gate,

A group of apprentices wearing sun badges on their chests were following a bald black man wearing exaggerated clothes and radiating the sun's glow towards the hospital.

When they met, Yi Chen reacted quickly, thinking of a name that Mr. Hervoye had mentioned before, and immediately saluted: "Dean Dis."

The other party tried his best to relax his serious expression and turned his eyes to the two strange young men. "You look unfamiliar. Did you come from Zion with Mr. Hervoye?"

"Yes, Mr. Hervoye is very busy. We are trying to recover enough fresh corpses to speed up the investigation and research."

"Well, I hope it's not too late."

Watching the dean hurriedly disappearing at the end of the hospital, Yi Chen had a bad feeling.

The aura exuded by Dean Diss was almost the same as that of Professor Chamberson. Such a powerful figure exuded a sense of panic.
