Chapter 3308

In the lower right corner of the map, Shiler drew a logo of the Order of St. Dumas and wrote the name of the Order of St. Dumas. And now, he wrote the name "East India Company" in the lower left corner of the map.

These two organizations came from England, but their influence was not in the same order of magnitude. Compared with the East India Company, the Order of St. Dumas was a small transparent, and no one had heard of it at all.

But Shiler knew that things were probably not that simple.

This has to start with the plot of the original comic. Omitting a large section of the investigation plot in the plot, anyway, the final result is that the priest of the Order of St. Dumas, Bakar, defeated the degenerate Edmund Wei En and killed him, letting Cat Getan return to peace.

The statement "degenerate Edmund Wei En" is very interesting. According to some hints in the original comics, it can be seen that Cat Getan seems to have some curse, and as long as you take over this city, you will become degenerate and cruel.

But assuming that there is actually no magical factor influence at all, and there is no such thing as a curse, then what is the so-called degeneration of Edmund?

Shiler guessed that this might refer to Edmund's cooperation with the East India Company.

The style of this company is no longer an evil cult. The most famous evil cults in the world are pediatric compared to it. The highest slaughter record of NAZI cannot compare to a hair of it, and Hydra would have to call it the ancestor.

If cooperating with such a company is not called degeneration, then nothing is called degeneration.

If it was Bakar who discovered Edmund's cooperation with the East India Company, felt he was degenerate, and killed him, then an unsolvable problem appeared at that time, that is, how did Bakar win?

The East India Company of that era, not to mention its peak, at least ruled half the world. Bakar, who came from the Order of St. Dumas, fought with Edmund, who cooperated with the East India Company, and the winner was Bakar. This itself is very abnormal.

And there is another problem here. The East India Company didn't look for the original ruler of Cat Getan, General Arkham, but had to support another one. Why was that?

Theoretically, such a big company doesn't care who the agent is, as long as they can work. Although General Arkham is a bit extravagant, this is not a shortcoming in their eyes but an advantage.

The core of the colonizer is to squeeze and exploit the indigenous people. The more extravagant, doesn't it just show that he knows how to exploit? Then why put aside the ready-made one and support another one?

Shiler felt that these two problems should actually be the same one. Edmund Wei En being able to win General Arkham, and Bakar being able to win Edmund Wei En, should have the same reason.

And the starting point of the problem is still in the original Cat Getan Village. What exactly is buried there?

Although Shiler was thinking, he didn't stop his work. The target he needs to deal with first now is this Ordain company, which is suspected to be a puppet of the Order of St. Dumas.

This company moved to the original site of the municipal building recently, but they originally had a company in Cat Getan, just in a more remote location. Shiler drove for about an hour before arriving at their original office building.

Then he discovered that there was a church not far from this company. After Shiler drove over, he discovered that this was the St. Marino Church, which was the church where Blood was.

This is really a coincidence. The original site of the company is close to where Blood works, and the company's current address is close to Blood's home. To say that this company has nothing to do with Blood, no one believes it.

The company's old office building had been moved out. Shiler turned around inside and didn't find anything. Seeing that it was getting dark, fortunately there were many communities nearby, so Shiler found a restaurant and sat down.

You can tell from the menu price and the quality of the food that this place also belongs to the slum area. The quality of life of the people coming and going is not very high. If you say that the Ordain company is out of consideration for land prices, and set the company headquarters here, it is not incomprehensible.

After eating, Shiler sat in the restaurant and listened to the movement. Just as he was looking at the restaurant, he found a notice board next to the menu, which looked like a promotional poster.

He walked over and looked at it carefully, and found that this was actually a poster released by the Ordain company to recruit human experiment volunteers.

In the United States, it is normal for the poor to be volunteers for human experiments. Many homeless people rely on testing drugs to make money, and pharmaceutical companies will specifically come to such areas to promote and recruit.

However, the Ordain company does not produce drugs; they produce medical instruments. It makes sense that they need volunteers, but are they asking for a bit too many?

Medical instruments do not update and iterate so quickly, and the cycle required to develop a new instrument may be ten years. After it is developed, the same type of machine will not be developed in a short time. Then, how could a machine need 2,000 volunteers?

But this poster clearly stated that they wanted to recruit 2,000 volunteers, and the wages given were not low, higher than ordinary drug testing work.

Then this completely overturned the possibility that this company set its headquarters here because of the cheap land price here. The Ordain company should not be short of money.

Shiler looked at the date on the poster, and the recruitment work ended two days ago. But Shiler also discovered that there seemed to be another poster under this poster.

Shiler picked at the edge of the poster with his hand, and he saw that there were several posters under this poster. Maybe the restaurant owner was lazy and covered the previous poster directly when posting the poster.

Judging from the thickness of the coverage, there should have been dozens of posters posted here. One recruitment period is three months, so they have recruited people here for at least a few years.

After eating, Shiler went to the old office building again. He probed it carefully with gray mist, but didn't find any evil laboratory. This proves that the other party should not be using the guise of recruiting people to engage in any evil human experiments.

Then this proves that the machines they developed definitely have problems.

Because a normal medical device doesn't need so many volunteers, and it's impossible to recruit long-term for several years. This is not a small expense, and if they can't obtain benefits, they won't do such things.

Shiler thought for a while and went to a community hospital nearby. At this time, the hospital was closed, but the access control couldn't stop Shiler. He soon came to the doctor's office and started rummaging through boxes and cabinets.

All recent medical records are kept here. What surprised Shiler somewhat was that such a small community hospital had a very large volume of medical records, and the daily volume of medical treatment was almost the volume of a week in an ordinary hospital.

Shiler opened these medical records, checked them item by item, and then discovered a shocking fact—the probability of symptoms suspected of cancer was as high as 40%.

This is not a specialized hospital, and there is no very perfect tumor detection equipment, so it should be impossible for cancer patients to specifically run here for check-ups.

Then how could this probability be so high?

Shiler couldn't help but think of the outrageous number of test personnel. Sufficient quotas, high salaries, seemingly harmless test processes, I'm afraid everyone in the nearby community has been there in the past few years, right?

Is the Ordain company mass-producing cancer patients?

But if the probability of cancer patients appearing in a community is so high, then someone must be able to notice that something is wrong. Don't they think about why?

But soon Shiler reacted. The medical record in his hand only recorded the details of the doctor's examination, but it didn't record the diagnosis given by the doctor. It was because he had professional knowledge that he could see many symptoms suspected of cancer.

Ordinary people don't have professional knowledge, and whatever the doctor says is what it is. What if the doctor doesn't tell them?

Maybe someone will feel that their body is uncomfortable, but can't find any problems, then they must change hospitals to check until they find out.

But the United States is not like this. The poor living in such chaotic communities don't have good insurance, and maintaining ordinary life is already very difficult, so it is impossible for them to spend so much time and money to repeatedly check for diseases, which will starve them to death.

Moreover, the community hospital will give them a lot of painkillers. If the body is uncomfortable, take a few pills, and most cancers are incurable diseases anyway. If it is conservative treatment, it will be maintained by painkillers in the end. They will not be able to notice the problem.

This is a perfect cycle. The community hospital hides the truth and prescribes painkillers, the harsh insurance terms limit patients from investigating the truth, making them feel uncomfortable all over, but unable to find out the problem.

If you want to check your physical problems better, you have to buy insurance that includes medical equipment check-up items. If more people want to buy it, the medical equipment production company can raise prices to the insurance, and it is another way to make money while standing.

Looking at the medical records in his hand, Shiler really wanted to say that you guys should be human. But thinking about it, since the other party doesn't act like a human, isn't it a good time to strike hard?

Shiler calculated the date, and the Ordain company should be recruiting volunteers again. However, since their company moved, the recruitment area should also change, and it should be recruiting near the original site of the municipal building.

Shiler drove back to Bourbon Street, found the peddler who sold drugs earlier, gave him a pile of capsules and a sum of money, and then told him: "Go and give this pile of capsules to those junkies, and say that someone is inviting them to try new drugs for free."

Seeing the peddler's suspicious gaze, Shiler shook his head and said: "Don't worry, if it were poison, would I appear in front of you so easily? If you are really worried, find a few people who are about to die and try it, the effect is guaranteed to be beyond your expectations."

After leaving Shiler's phone number, the peddler left soon. Not long after, Shiler received a call. The peddler's tone revealed surprise: "It's amazing, sir, where did you get the good stuff? Those people have been smoking white powder for several years, and ordinary goods can't make them excited at all. The effect of your medicine is too good. Do you have any more? Can I import some?"

Shiler smiled and said: "Of course, but this is a new medicine, and the effect is not very stable. You can sell it cheaper and promote it first..."

After hanging up the phone, Shiler looked at the capsule in his hand and revealed a cold smile. Can the effect be bad? Gray mist can directly stimulate their brains, and no chemical drug effect can compare to direct physical stimulation.

The next day, the Ordain company hadn't even finished moving, and the poster for recruiting test personnel was posted. There was a long line at the entrance of the office building, and the confused junkies, in order to earn more money to buy drugs, could even sell their souls, let alone their bodies?
