Chapter 456 Things Cultivated by the Research Institute (Da Zhang asks for a monthly ticket)
"Mr. Rhett is a core member of the Mars Project?"

He Ao stirred the coffee and asked suddenly.

"Of course, he is the only core member of the research institute in Limen City."

Coles drank the milk and said slowly.

"There are research institutes in other cities?"

Howard paused for a moment in stirring the coffee.

"Currently, there are more than a dozen research institutes in the federation, all over the big cities." Coles fell into a momentary thought. In fact, I don't know why the group set up a research institute in Limen City."

"Um,"

He Ao continued to stir the coffee, Limen City could be 'chosen', probably because of the existence of the Fountain of Youth.

A little more daring guess, perhaps the earliest 'research' started from Limen City.

However, He Ao did not discuss this topic further, but asked casually, "What kind of person does Mr. Coles think Reid is?"

"He's smart, but not a research guy, but he's lucky."

Coles put the milk to his mouth, and said calmly, his tone was slightly raised, which was contemptuous.

The 'doctor' felt Rhett was inferior to himself.

The so-called 'good luck', it should be said that Rhett joined the plan relatively early and just entered the core of the plan.

"Then if something happens to Rhett, or if he makes a major mistake..."

He Ao's stirring of the coffee stopped slowly, and the swirling coffee hit the slender stopped spoon to produce a faint translucent foam.

Hearing this sentence, Coles raised his head in surprise, and stared blankly at He Ao.

Howe saw a flash of anticipation in his eyes.

Then he turned his head away and shook his head, "I am so old now, although I have been in the group for so many years, it is already very difficult to go further. You don't have to provoke the relationship between me and Reid."

"I'll just say whatever I want,"

Howard smiled.

Everyone has something they care about. Money lovers care about money, lustful people care about sex, and Coles has probably always been curious about the core secrets of the Mars Project. Over the years, this curiosity has accumulated into some kind of obsession.

Once the seeds of obsession take root and germinate, people will not be controlled by reason.

He Ao knew that now he could ask a little deeper. In a sense, Coles and he had 'common interests'.

He put down the coffee spoon in his hand and looked out the window at the magnificent hospital building in the night, "When did the Mars Project start?"

"The Mars Project has been around for a long time,"

Coles replied slowly that this is not a core and complicated issue, "It is said that at the beginning of the establishment of Qunxing Group, there were similar plans within the group, but these plans have not achieved effective results until almost 22 Years ago, the project had a slight improvement, and gradually organized a group of new research teams."

"Did you work in this hospital at that time?"

How asked.

"No," Coles shook his head. "At that time, there was no such hospital. I worked in another private hospital of Qunxing Group. Qunxing Zhimei Hospital was developed and built by the group later. After I joined the plan, was transferred to this hospital."

Qunxing Zhimei Hospital was built about 20 years ago. The core area here was originally a park, which was taken away by a businessman almost 40 years ago for demolition and reconstruction.

From the information collected by Eve, there are rumors that the businessman who bought the core area wanted to build a hospital here.

But I don't know whether it was because of the broken capital chain or some other reason. After the park was demolished, no new buildings were built on this land.

The whole land has been deserted for nearly 20 years, and was eventually bought by the Qunxing Group in some way, and Qunxing Group bought all the surrounding land with a large amount of money, demolished the original buildings on the ground, and built the current Qunxingzhi US hospital.

Judging from Coles' words, all of this is after progress has been made in the 'Mars Plan' to seek immortality.

It seems that almost 20 years ago, someone brought the Fountain of Youth into the vision of Qunxing Group, and relied on the Fountain of Youth to promote the progress of the Mars Project.

"So when Rhett introduced you to join the Mars Project, it was for...?"

Howe looked back at Coles.

"For my surgical ability."

Coles coughed, "More than ten years ago, I was relatively well-known in the surgery circle in Limen City. At that time, I received an invitation from Reid. In fact, he not only invited me, but All the well-known surgeons in Limen City have been invited,
"In the end, five surgeons were invited to participate in the project. We were not assigned any research at the beginning, but were assigned a lot of human anatomy work. In the end, the other four doctors quit the project due to various problems, and only I, who was the least famous at the time, stayed.

"After several other doctors withdrew, the group did not give me a new task, but let me continue to dissect the body.

"The corpses that can be dissected are very rare, and almost every one needs to be cherished, but the corpses provided by Reid are endless, but these dead people are more or less suffering from certain diseases or accidents. scars.

"During that time, I gained a deeper understanding of the human body structure every day, which laid the foundation for my future surgical operations."

"Those corpses are from Qunxing Zhimei Hospital?"

He Ao glanced at the hospital outside the window and asked softly.

Coles was silent for a moment, neither confirming nor denying.

He Ao understood the answer, he didn't continue to ask, but changed the question, "So you have been dissecting the corpse after that?"

"About three months later," Coles seemed lost in memory, "Red found me, and he gave me a silver metal box, hoping that I could develop a way to 'put' this metal box into a living human body .”

He Ao remembered the silver metal box containing the miniature kidney in the operating room where Pate was 'operated'.

"Looks like you succeeded."

He Ao took a sip of coffee and answered the words softly.

The scene was a little awkward for a while.

After all, He Ao was lying on the operating table, waiting for Coles to perform the operation.

But the awkward atmosphere only lasted for a short while, Coles quickly went on to say,

"The space in the human body is limited, and it is difficult to completely fit things in without looking obtrusive, and the sudden insertion of foreign objects will inevitably trigger a strong reaction from the immune system."

"So how did you solve this problem."

Howard asked with great interest.

"This method is not difficult, any surgeon can think of it.

"Some organs in the human body have strong regeneration capabilities. For example, after a part of the liver is removed, its function will not be particularly affected, and it can regenerate to a certain extent." Coles said slowly,
"Even if some organs are missing, the normal functions of the body will not be affected too much. For example, the loss of a kidney has little impact on normal life, and the removal of part of the stomach will not affect the digestive function too much."

He Ao's hand froze while drinking the coffee.

"Of course I don't bother to use these methods," Coles said hastily as if he saw his movements,

"Long-term anatomical experience has allowed me to study many methods that can slightly 'squeeze out space' in the human body. I have summarized this method into experience, but this method will more or less cause abnormalities on the skin surface Protruding and possibly squeezing the box, Red didn't like the idea, but that's what I've always done."

He Ao took a sip of coffee slowly, but didn't speak.

Coles' meaning is very clear, he will not harm the original organs of the 'patient', but it does not mean that other 'doctors' in the institute will do the same.

He Ao asked casually, "So is there any standard for the institute to select doctors?"

"The doctors in the research institute are all selected by Reid. I don't know the specific process, but from my observation, most of them are underground doctors who have not gone to school."

Coles replied slowly.

"Then why are you..."

He Ao raised the coffee cup, indicating something.

He was talking about why Coles, like those underground doctors, went to the institute to perform 'surgery' on people.

In fact, he already had some guesses in his mind, but he was still waiting for Coles' answer.

"For deeper secrets," Coles leaned on the sofa,
"I have most of the information on the outer layers of the Mars Project, but with this information alone, I can't get deeper information, so I told Rhett that I am going to the operating table, and I hope to learn from those who have done 'operations'. 'Gain more intelligence from patients.

"Redming welcomed my behavior on the surface, and opened most of the research institute to me, but he never showed me the most core 'patient' tracking data, and he would only arrange for me to Do some 'surgery' that his doctors couldn't do,"

Speaking of this, Coles paused, "For example, your physical examination shows that your physical fitness is very poor, and your body is abnormally weak. None of the doctors under Reid have the confidence to complete the work without harming you. 'surgery' on you, so Rhett put me on...cough..."

He took out a handkerchief, covered his mouth and coughed, staring at He Ao.

He seemed to be very interested in why He Ao had such poor physical fitness, but was so strong.

But He Ao had no intention of explaining to Coles.

He Ao put the coffee cup in his hand on the table, and the wind outside the window blew up the fallen leaves on the landscape trees. He opened his mouth and asked the crucial question,
"So what exactly is the Institute doing?"

"To be precise, I don't know what the research institute is used for. The mission of the research institute I have come into contact with is to implant the key items of the Mars plan into the body of the 'patient', and then after a certain period of time Get this item back."

Coles replied.

The key item he mentioned should be the silver box.

He has always referred to those 'volunteers' who signed the agreement and walked onto the operating table inexplicably as 'patients'.

After saying this, he paused for a moment, as if hesitating to say some additional 'information'.

During the whole process, He Ao kept quiet. He knew that Coles would make the right choice, because the other party had "common interests" with him. This was what he planted in Coles' mind at the beginning of the conversation seed.

The evening wind blew more fallen leaves, and as a leaf fell in front of the transparent window, and then slowly slid to the ground, Coles finally raised his head and continued,

"But I think the institute might be trying to 'cultivate' something."

He Ao looked up at him, beckoning him to continue talking.

"The whole institute's process for 'patients' is like this,

"Firstly, the patient's body is opened, a silver box is put into the patient's body, and then some blood vessels are connected to some ports of the box, and the wound is then sewed up.

"Generally, patients can wake up after a day or two of recuperation. In the first day or two, their energy will become particularly strong. During this process, the research institute will distribute some medicine to them and require them to take it regularly every day.

"The time to take the medicine depends on the boxes that are put in, and the storage time required for each box in the 'patient' body is different, generally between one and three months.

"I have studied the medicines provided by those research institutes, which have drug components that suppress the immune system and are used to control the immune system from attacking 'foreign objects' in the body.

"In addition to this, there are some drugs that forcibly catalyze the body's functions. Most of the time, these drugs are used to create stimulants.

"Generally speaking, immunosuppressive drugs will cause relatively large damage to the body, but stimulant drugs can forcibly refresh the 'patient'.

"In addition to these two drugs, there are some ingredients in these drugs that I can't identify, but I think these ingredients may have a certain degree of addiction.

"The dosage of the medicine in the research institute is well controlled, usually until the 'storage' is over and the box in the body is taken out, many 'patients' will not realize that something is wrong with their body.

"They will find the wounds on their bodies, but out of their desire for generous 'subsidies', they will choose to acquiesce to the Institute's behavior.

"After most of the 'patients' are stored once, the research institute will let them go home to rest for a period of time. At this time, the damage to the body will gradually be exposed, and they will feel severe discomfort and fatigue,"

Having said that, Colston paused and said slowly, "But this does not affect the vast majority of 'patients' participating in 'storage' repeatedly. They don't know what the institute has done to them, but maybe those drugs Because of the addictive ingredients in it, they will jump at them like moths to a flame, constantly participating in the 'storage'."

When Coles said this, his expression was a bit grim, his hands were bulging with veins, and an abnormal expression flashed on his face.

He covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed.

He Ao noticed that when he first talked about the 'addictive ingredients' in those drugs, he seemed to have a little bit of this expression.

"Feel sorry."

Coles paused, took out a small pill box from his clothes, poured out a small white pill and threw it into his mouth, then he took a sip of milk and swallowed the pill.

"I have some physical problems... Where did we just talk..."

His expression returned to calm, "Yes, those 'patients' will continue to participate in the 'storage' of the institute, and eventually their lives will become weaker and weaker, and they may even die on the operating table. I have encountered many such accidents gone."

"Doctor, I have a question."

He Ao suddenly asked, "Why do you always refer to those who participate in the research institute's experiments as 'patients'?"

"Patients are patients." Coles widened his glasses, blood-red threads covered his eyeballs, "Aren't they patients like that?"

He Ao instantly activated Super Memory, and stared at Coles' figure.

The old doctor's soul was tightly attached to his body, the illusory shadow was covered with white spots, and slender tentacles extended from these spots and inserted into his throat.

This 'doctor'...maybe...has gone crazy long ago.

He Ao turned off Super Memory, the expression on his face remained unchanged, "So, what exactly is in that box?"

"It's an organ,"

Coles leaned back on the sofa, his voice hoarse, he seemed unaware of his abnormality just now,

"The 'organs' that do not belong to the natural development of the human body and are cultivated"
