Chapter 86 - Chapter 86: Helping the Newcomer

When he woke up again, Mallory had left the helicopter and was lying on a corpse transport bed.

Maybe it was just a medical emergency bed, but Mallory felt more like a corpse carrier bed.

"I ... didn't ... die ..."

Mallory opened his eyes and tried hard to tell the two staff members.

But he couldn't open his mouth at all, couldn't shout.

Couldn't even shake his head, could only blink his eyes.

But his head is sideways, blinking eyes are hard to make people notice.

Two staff members pushed Mallory directly toward the adjacent building.

Mallory was pushed in at the same time that another body bed was pushed in.

In that bed was a woman, a woman Mallory did not know.

This woman has a certain look, her condition is much better than Mallory, she can move her arms and legs, and kept talking to the two staff members about her accident at the top of the stone pillar.

But the staff was not interested in picking up on her.

Occasionally she would glance over at Mallory.

Mallory winked at her, trying to remind her that there was a big live person here.

But Mallory soon realized that he seemed to have lost the ability to blink.

So the woman took one look at him and then quickly looked away.

Because no one would be interested in a corpse.

And it was such a black, swollen, ugly, disgusting-looking corpse.

Mallory can't help but be a little sad, eyes can't even blink, and he's still alive!

The two corpse beds were wheeled into the consultation room together.

The black-hearted doctor came over and the woman immediately struck up a conversation with him.

Listening to what the woman said, Mallory remembered himself from last time.

"Just to let you know, you were not injured on the job while filming, it is not covered by the medical insurance underwriting of Film City, you need to pay additional points to save your life. If you don't have enough points, I can help you get a loan and pay it back in installments."

Although the woman tried her best to get close to the black-hearted doctor to get free treatment for herself, the black-hearted doctor was not moved at all and directly held up the application form for advance fee repayment in installments for her to sign.

The woman had no choice but to sign the form, just like Mallory did last time, in order to get treatment.

After signing, the woman realized that her nightmare had just begun.

The black-hearted doctor called for a few nursing staff and carried her seven-handedly to the operating table in the next room.

Then, using an alloy lock, her wrists, ankles, and neck were all locked up.

The black-hearted doctor did not immediately go inside the operating room.

Because there was still an ugly 'corpse' that he needed to handle.

Dr. Blackheart took a disgusted look at Mallory's blackened and swollen face and limbs, then reached out to support Mallory's swollen eyes.

Mallory tried to blink, but couldn't. He didn't know at this point that his face had also become black and swollen.

Dr. Blackheart didn't seem to know Mallory.

The ghosts couldn't recognize him with this swelling.

"I don't know if I'm dead or alive, so I'll have to let the medical bay make a determination. You have no way to sign in this condition, so let's confirm the treatment cost with a fingerprint." The black-hearted doctor took Mallory's swollen and unconscious hand, and after wiping the clay, he put his handprint on a blank form.

After all this, Dr. Blackheart called out for an orderly to throw Mallory into the medical bay, while he himself hummed a little tune while pushing a cart full of rusty surgical instruments into the operating room where the woman was.

"Luck, the woman drew his attention and I escaped!" Mallory couldn't help but be thankful.

Mallory could not move and could not see his condition, his corpse this time was too unsightly, his whole body was black and swollen, even without the woman, I guess the black-hearted doctor did not have any interest in dissecting this pile of rotten flesh.

Treatment began, immersed in that mysterious solid-liquid two-state body soon after, Mallory's consciousness slowly became blurred.

Ten minutes later, the medical hatch opened.

Mallory sat up from the mysterious solid-liquid mixture.

Refreshed.

But the hunger was unbearable.

It's good to be hungry, but if you lose even the feeling of hunger, you're pretty much done.

An orderly stood by the medical bay and handed Mallory a folded hospital gown.

Mallory was wearing several layers of clothes, and already wore a set of hospital gowns inside, and just now during the treatment, the medical pod also by the way cleaned and repaired the torn parts of his clothes.

This medical pod is indeed quite amazing, repairing the body and also repairing the clothes.

But Mallory also found out that the pajamas he wore from home could not be repaired by the medical pod.

This means that all these clothes in the film city are made of special materials, and may even be the result of biotechnology, otherwise it is impossible to explain why the torn places will be repaired by the medical pod.

Now the nurse brought him another set of sick clothes.

Needless to say, it was worth another 20 points, which was then deducted directly from his account.

He had to accept it, but he had to accept it or not.

After accepting the gown, the nurse took out a copy of Mallory's handprinted advance fee application without saying a word.

It was now filled with various charges.

The total cost of treatment was the same as last time, 999 points.

Now Mallory owed nearly 2000 for the treatment.

Of course, part of it has already been paid back, and I don't know how long it will take to pay it all back.

The good thing is that the deduction is still based on half of the salary, and the extra 999 points owed is only deferred until he pays it all off, not because he owes a double amount, so his own half is also deducted.

In that case, he really has no more to mix.

The woman's screams came from the operating room next door, extremely miserable, the closed operating room door could not stop.

The black-hearted doctor is busy living dissecting her, which is why he couldn't take the time to ask the nurses to bring the hospital gown to Mallory.

This is a show that Dr. Blackheart is going to attend, right?

Not ready to move now?

Is the companion card actually useful to him?

The companion card should not be wrong, since the doctor has not yet moved, it means that the show is still early.

Mallory wanted to explore the hospital to see if he could find some benefits.

For example, free food or free coffee or something like that.

But he was soon spotted by the hospital's security guards, who expelled him.

There were signs along the street.

There were countdowns in the stores down the street.

He came over too early this time, and after the medical bay healed his injuries, there were still almost two hours before the next show started.

There was plenty of time.

Mallory already knew the distance between the filming location and the hospital, and ran about ten minutes away, so he wasn't in such a hurry to run there.

He needed to find something to eat.

Anna was gone, and Daisy was probably gone.

Aisha and Robin were both relatively stingy.

It would be hard to fool around with free food in the future.

He now had at least 50 points balance, so he could spend two points to eat a few Hamburgers.

Mallory's mouth watered at the thought of Hamburger and the free shredded pickled radish.

He quickly entered a restaurant down the street, went to the kiosk, and was about to exchange six Hamburgers and six pickled radishes.

A yellow question mark popped up in the corner of the kiosk screen!

Apparently, the kiosks and street terminals are networked and have some of the functions of the terminals, and when Mallory started to order, it also entered Mallory's account by default.

Tap on the yellow question mark and a mission to catch newcomers appears.

It is also a task to help the newcomer.

The task is very underwhelming.

Robin has done this task before.

Mallory can go to the costume store to rent a free special dress with manipulation device, and then go to the wax museum to prank the newcomer.
