Chapter 3311: Bloody New City (71)

~10 min read 1,968 words

The night was deep. A tall figure jumped down from the roof, but didn't make any sound. He came to the window along the wall and glanced at the window emitting a faint light, but saw two figures standing in front of the window. Faint dialogue came from the room.

"... It's too suspicious, I can't believe it either. But isn't your professional level enough for you to see that this is a man-made conspiracy? Piet, stop holding such naive fantasies."

"I'm not deliberately trying to think of them in a good way, but this is truly shocking." The heavy Nordic accent made the tone sound colder. He said, "The evidence you investigated is enough. What do you plan to do next?"

"I don't know, I definitely can't compete with them alone. They might also send assassins to kill me, but I will never let such things continue to happen. Piet, you have to help me."

"Of course, I came here for this." The man's voice lowered, "I'm thinking about what to do with those cancer patients. They can't afford high medical expenses, but we don't have that much money..."

The tall figure standing by the window had already intended to break through the window, but when he heard the word "cancer," he paused.

The dialogue continued to come from the window.

"Man-made cancer... If I hadn't seen their diagnosis results, I really wouldn't believe it." The woman's voice revealed helplessness, "The equipment that originally saved lives has now become a weapon for killing. Those volunteers who were willing to dedicate themselves to medicine have actually become tools for them to promote new types of drugs! Is it possible that we are the only ones in this world who are keeping our oaths?!"

The tall figure outside the window froze completely.

"Do you have the results of the check on the red pills?" The man asked, "I found a few friends to analyze them, but couldn't find anything."

"That's for sure. So many hospitals are using Aodeyin Company's instruments, didn't they also not notice anything? This just proves that both of these came from their hands."

"Their wisdom in making black-hearted money is unmatched!" The man gritted his teeth and cursed, "Using the radiation of medical instruments to mass-produce cancer patients, and then vigorously promoting drugs that can immunize against radiation. Either don't do any instrument checks in your life, or you must get addicted to drugs. What kind of devil could come up with such a plan?!"

"But they are about to succeed." The woman's voice revealed sorrow, "The power of the two of us is too weak. Even if we can remind one or two people, we can't save the vast majority of people."

"We should tell Batman!" The man said again, "Only he has a way to deal with such a big company, and he also has the money to save those people."

"Don't you understand yet?" The worry in the woman's voice did not decrease at all, "The CEO of Wei En Enterprises, who has been funding Batman, is in a coma, and the Mayor, who reached a tacit understanding with Batman, was assassinated. In order to execute their evil plan, they had already taken action against Batman. Now Batman is overwhelmed."

"But isn't there a new Batman?"

"That guy is just a street hero." The woman's tone revealed pessimism, "And he seems to be a religious fanatic. They will only shout God in the void and won't care about the life or death of those real ordinary people."

With a bang, the glass was shattered. The two people in the room were clearly startled. Dr. Thompkins instinctively dodged to the corner of the room, while the Midnight Doctor had already taken out a syringe.

"Who are you?!" Dr. Thompkins raised her voice and asked, "Don't you know this is a clinic?! Leave quickly!"

"I am the new Batman you speak of, but I don't like this title. I am the Angel of Death." The deep voice came from the tall man's mouth, "I want to know what's going on with the cancer."

"You eavesdropped on our conversation?! You are truly despicable!" Piet cursed without hesitation.

"Don't be like this." Dr. Thompkins said to Piet hurriedly, and then she looked at the big guy, seemingly trying her best to appease him, "As you can see, this is a clinic, and I am a doctor. We have received many patients during this period, and then we found..."

"Forget it, why am I telling you this." Dr. Thompkins shook her head, "Do you want money? Many people who come here for medical treatment can't afford the consultation fee. I don't have much cash, it's all in the drawer over there. If you want it, take it all, but please don't hurt anyone."

"Why be polite to such a bastard who breaks into a private house?!" Piet shouted, "Maybe he was hired by Aodeyin Company to kill us. I won't be captured without a fight!"

"Answer me. What's going on with the cancer?" The tall man extended the long sword in his hand, his tone becoming colder.

"Fine, fine, fine, I'll tell you. Put the sword away first." Dr. Thompkins said helplessly, "We are a low-cost clinic here, the consultation fee for simple diagnosis is very low, so many people without money are willing to come here for treatment."

"Recently, several patients I received said they were uncomfortable, and the symptoms were somewhat similar. I examined them and found that they might have cancer."

"I felt strange at the time, after all, cancer is not a common disease. And their tumor types were very similar, even the development progress was almost the same, as if they were cloned. I paid special attention to it."

"As a result, I found that a very large number of patients had cancer, and they mostly came from the same area. After asking, I learned that they had all participated in instrument experiments of Aodeyin Medical Equipment Company many times, without exception."

"I asked every patient, and then found that those among them who didn't have cancer had all taken a new type of drug called red pills in advance. This drug seems to be able to immunize against the radiation brought by Aodeyin Company's instruments and avoid getting cancer."

"But at the same time, the effect of this new type of drug is very good, far exceeding other chemical drugs, and the price is not expensive, and it is spreading wildly among the drug-addicted population."

"After the news spread, many people troubled by money would choose to take this drug first for an emergency, and then go to do experiments to get rewards to solve their urgent needs."

"But this will make them addicted to drugs, take the money to buy more drugs, and then do more experiments, until they completely lose their sanity."

"My investigation of the patients is enough to prove that Aodeyin Company is indeed doing this kind of thing. But unfortunately, my technical means can neither crack the secret of the instrument nor find out the ingredients of the red pills, so in fact, there is still no evidence, and no one will listen to us."

Watching the slowly drooping long sword, Dr. Thompkins sighed in her heart once again that Schiller's prediction was not wrong.

"Do you have their examination results?" The Angel of Death asked.

"I have them, but I can't give them to you. I have to keep the patient's information confidential... fine, calm down." Dr. Thompkins took a deep breath and extended a hand, "In the second drawer of the cabinet on the right, some people's imaging results are in the next layer."

The Angel of Death took the things away. After he left, Dr. Thompkins sat down slowly, while Piet leaned against the wall, his expression cold, completely unable to see the previous anger.

"Will he really go to verify it? How will he verify it?"

"He will have a way." Dr. Thompkins shook her head, "He is not the same as I imagined, not just an angry thug. He might... be dying soon."

"Why does he react so strongly to this matter?"

Dr. Thompkins clearly saw something, but she didn't say it, just sighed and sat by the window for a long time without speaking.

Paul returned to his residence with the information, his inner suppressed emotions like a time bomb. He recalled his past.

Since he could remember, he had been suffering from schizophrenia and often experienced memory loss, which led to him being unable to do any job well. Only the priest of San Marino Church was willing to take him in and let him do odd jobs there.

The income from odd jobs was not much, but he didn't have any other expenses. He saved a sum of money, wanting to rent a house around the church. Although it was not a good community, it also required a deposit.

The money in his hand was not enough, but it was only a little short. He didn't want to miss the house he had his eye on. Just at this time, he saw the poster of Aodeyin Company recruiting test volunteers, and the generous reward on it moved him.

He went back and forth five times and earned a lot of money. But when he went again later, they refused him.

Although he didn't earn more money, the existing money was enough to rent a house. However, two months after moving into the new house, he was diagnosed with cancer.

Because he couldn't buy insurance without a stable job, the high examination fees spent all his savings. He was driven out by the landlord and had to drag his sick body back to the church to continue working.

But just a while ago, his schizophrenia recurred, and he attacked others like a madman. After being sent to a mental hospital, he owed a huge debt, and he had completely no money for treatment.

Just at this time, a terrifying-looking madman found him. She called herself the Joker and told him his true life experience:

The one who should truly rule this city is not the Wei En family, but the Vare family where the priest named Bakar belongs. The despicable Wei En killed Bakar and monopolized this city. His descendants enjoy wealth and honor, while the descendants of the true Vare family have become penniless poor people.

The Joker made him believe that he should have enjoyed everything Bruce Wei En has now—living in a luxurious manor, eating exquisite food, and most importantly, being able to enjoy the best medical resources, so that even cancer was not a problem for them.

This ignited the anger in Paul's heart, and he vowed to take back everything that belonged to him. The Joker gave the method: the upper class is no longer satisfied with Batman, and they are urgently looking for a substitute. As long as he can do things for them, they will help him prolong his life.

Paul had no choice, so the "Angel of Death" was born.

After wandering in the Lower District for a period of time, the Angel of Death received his first mission: kill Dr. Thompkins, the private doctor of the Wei En family.

Paul took action quickly, but he didn't expect that tonight's action would let him know a shocking secret—his cancer was not an accident at all, everything was a conspiracy.

Paul, who got the information, chose to find the manager he contacted before. The other party promised to prolong his life and provide the best doctor. He needed the doctor to give an answer.

An answer that would make him decide where the bomb should explode.
