Chapter 281 Stephen Strange! (Happy National Day to everyone)
The dark clouds over New York City have not yet dissipated.
But the heavy snowstorm that had been raging for several days has stopped.
Amid the busy traffic and the flow of people.
The vitality of the city seems to be gradually returning.
On the streets, New York policemen wearing heavy uniforms and with big bellies are cooperating with a charity organization that is clearing snow.
Try to bury those homeless people who died suddenly due to the sudden cold temperature.
At this time, Rorschach, wearing a black windbreaker, walked on the nearby streets, stepping on the snow that had not yet been cleared.
He turned his eyes slightly and glanced calmly at the stiff corpses with strange smiles on their faces.
Continue walking towards the road ahead.
At the same time, a small bottle of illusion dust was tied firmly to his sturdy wrist.
The steps sway slowly as the whole body moves.
At this moment, Rorschach was on his way to Manhattan General Hospital.
That is the private medical center where Jessica is housed.
Originally, he planned to take Jessica, whose injuries had not yet fully healed, directly back to the underground base.
Use the Panacea or Panacea Potion on her to complete the final treatment.
However, this decision was immediately strongly opposed by a neurosurgeon who was responsible for Jessica's medical treatment.
The reasons given by the other party were also very straightforward.
If the patient's family moves the patient out of the hospital without authorization.
Then there are bones in the injured person's body that have not yet fully healed.
And the nerve tissue that has just been repaired through surgery will be at risk of being broken again.
But he didn't want to be involved in a similar medical lawsuit and ruin his perfect resume.
Therefore, even though the Imperial Heavy Industries' docking team had almost worn out their lips and promised not to sue the other party for this.
The attending neurosurgeon still disagreed with Jessica's discharge from the hospital without permission.
Unless the patient has fully recovered.
Thus, the choice fell into Rorschach's hands again.
He either had to ask the legal department of Imperial Heavy Industries to intervene and spend a lot of time to get Jessica discharged from the hospital.
Either go directly to the hospital and let Jessica take the panacea in the name of visiting so that she can fully recover and return smoothly.
So, unwilling to wait any longer, Rorschach once again stepped out of the underground base.
This also made him subconsciously miss the conveniences brought by Iron Man David when he was still around.
After all, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to
And, if it was Iron Man David who was dealing with something like that.
He might not even have to step out of the base's door.
But this kind of days won't last long.
According to the recent report sent by Iron Man David.
It has successfully found several large islands with hidden locations and rich seabed minerals.
Leading the automatic servo robots to carry out the final exploration operation.
Once Iron Man David determined the specific location of the second base.
The tedious initial excavation work will be completely handed over to the automatic servo robots.
And the Iron Man David, who has disappeared for a long time, can return to his home place.
All you need to do is remotely control the construction of the second base.

Rorschach, wearing a black windbreaker, blended in very low-key among the crowd of people.
He quietly entered the busy general hospital.
Rorschach did not choose the more crowded elevator.
Instead, he walked towards the staircase based on the impression left from his last visit.
Until he slowly climbed up the fifth floor.
He successfully bypassed the nurse who was making rounds and arrived at the door of Jessica's private ward.
To Rorschach's keen hearing, a man's voice came clearly from inside the soundproofed ward.
"Ms. Jessica, I know you may have special abilities or physiques that ordinary people don't have, but as long as you are still a carbon-based life form, it will take a lot of time to repair your bones and muscles."
"This is not some unscrupulous doctor's trick to defraud patients' medical insurance. This is simply the law of conservation of energy... Oh, with your education level, it's hard for me to explain it to you clearly, so I'd better not explain it to you."
"You just need to know that it was a joint decision on the part of the hospital not to allow you to be discharged early."
As soon as the man's teasing words fell.
Jessica's voice immediately sounded.
But her tone seemed full of anger and anxiety.
"Doctor! I've already said it, I'm willing to take all the responsibility!"
"Why wouldn't you allow me to be discharged from the hospital? My boss paid a lot of money for me to be treated here! Is this how you treat patients?"
"Haha, that's right. We are the most expensive private medical center in New York. We put service first and customers first... But at the same time, it also means that we attract the wealthy and powerful upper class with our excellent reputation for medical treatment. I can't let any medical defects that may damage the reputation of the hospital or even myself appear in my hands."
"Don't be angry, Ms. Jessica. This is not discrimination against you personally. It is just a small measure taken by the hospital to prevent accidents before they happen."
The man's calm voice sounded again.
But his explanation obviously only brought Jessica incomprehensible indignation.
At this moment, Rorschach, who had been standing outside the door and eavesdropping for a moment, shook his head slightly.
One of his hands gently grasped the handle of the ward door.
Slowly pushed the door open.
"Jessica, I told you that when you encounter any problem, don't fall into the trap of emotions easily. The more you indulge your emotions, the more things will develop beyond your control."
Inside the brightly lit private ward.
Rorschach had just stepped into this place.
His eyes first turned to the tall and thin man in a doctor's coat, leaning on the window sill of the ward with his arms folded.
Then, he spoke lightly to Jessica, who had been lying on the luxurious bed with a sulky face.
"Uh...good afternoon, boss!"
Accompanied by Jessica's eyes suddenly widened and her tone suddenly rose.
Rorschach stepped forward slowly with a polite smile subconsciously on his lips.
Then, he and the tall and thin man who straightened his back and looked at him stretched out their hands in front of each other almost at the same time.
"Rorschach, Jessica's boss and teacher, and perhaps her guardian."
"Stephen Strange, neurosurgeon... not a doctor."
The palms of the two people touched slightly and then slowly let go, falling to their sides.
Rorschach narrowed his eyes and didn't turn back to care about Jessica's situation.
He just stared at Strange's long face and said with a smile:
"Nice to meet you... Doctor Strange."
Thank you for your support!
