Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 208 Basement Operating Room
The Oswald Madhouse is relatively close to the alchemy workshop area where Huck's house is located.

Because of Li Lin's entrustment and appointment, Huck became the inspection team leader of the tidal power station and stopped working as an unstable businessman. His quality of life has improved a lot.

Not only him, but also many of Van der's subordinates, because Li Lin found a job to survive, they no longer idled around as usual, and did odd jobs for a few days without money.

Today, Li Lin is going to solve another disaster that threatens the citizens of the middle-level square, and Van der naturally strongly supports it.

He used the newly installed phone in the store to notify his capable men, Benso, Sevica, and Codd, and asked them to assemble a group of people and lie in ambush outside the Oswald Asylum, trying not to be discovered.

Wait for Li Lin to use the unmanned reconnaissance floating ball to investigate first, and if he can find evidence, he will wipe out these bottomless scum.

Li Lin was very surprised. This was the first time Van der took the initiative to destroy the power of a baron of alchemy, and he didn't even do it to Silko, who was weak at the beginning.

It seems that this Raymond Keane really touched his bottom line.

In less than two hours, outside the Oswald Asylum.

Li Lin, Kaitlyn, Kai'Sa, Vander, and Benso, Sevika, and Ke De, who arrived late, gathered on the top floor of a nearby apartment building.

Li Lin spent a few gold coins to ask the original owner of this apartment to find another place to live, and the other party happily accepted.

It just happened to overlook most of the free movement area outside the madhouse.

Kaitlyn has already assembled her Iron Blood, put it on the windowsill, and flipped the switch with her thumb to switch to the non-lethal mode of "shock bomb".

She pressed the butt of the gun against her shoulder, pressed her cheek against the metal lining, and observed the situation below through the optical sniper scope with her right eye.

"Currently, there are 17 patients and 23 staff that can be observed, including 13 guards equipped with alchemy guns and hex carbines, 8 of them are wearing white coats, they look like doctors, and the other two are very dressed. special.

"One has a suit with a leather collar, holds a cane and wears a tall hat. At first glance, he looks like a high-society person in the upper city. The other is wearing a worn-out brown-gray coat and bronze alchemy technology armor."

Fandre also observed the situation with a binoculars, "The guy in the aristocratic dress is Oswald, the director of this madhouse, and the guy next to him is Raymond Keane."

Caitlin withdrew her gaze, her expression quite serious, "Why would a lunatic asylum be equipped with enough firepower for a small battle? Just to guard against those mental patients? This is definitely not a normal lunatic asylum."

"Oswald used to be a butcher, but he was reported by his neighbors because he used alchemy potions to experiment on animals and sold their meat to unsuspecting people, and the police in Piltover arrested him several times.

"Two years ago, he was packaged by Baron Raymond Keane and turned into the director of this madhouse." Sevica sneered, her hoarse and deep voice echoing in the small room.

"I've heard from Huck that Oswald often wanders into the alchemy workshop downstairs to buy potions," Cord added.

"It's useless to say these things now, we have to have evidence, otherwise the Picheng police have no reason to arrest these people."

As Li Lin spoke, he controlled the infinite deployment of the armor on the belt, and the two black iron blocks quickly unfolded, turning into balls and slowly rising into the air.

He tuned the two drones until the holographic display showed their field of view.

After making sure that the network connection was correct, he controlled the reconnaissance plane to get in through a half-open window on the second floor of the madhouse.

The speed of the drone is very fast and basically no noise.

This is a new technology, not even the artisan scientists of Piltover have ever seen it.

Combined with the steel grid style of Zaun's architecture, this miniature drone has too many places to hide itself.

Just be careful, the thug guards patrolling the madhouse won't notice anything unusual.

However, at the current stage, the network connection range between Infinity Warframe and drones is only 200 meters, and it can only explore one-third of the madhouse at most.

If there is a very critical place that cannot be explored, Li Lin decided to enable [ultra-remote control] to increase the real-time connection range of the network to 600 meters.

Although this effect can only last for 2 hours, the shared network device of the drone will be scrapped after the time limit expires, but it is enough.

The corridor on the second floor of the lunatic asylum leads to the stairs at one end, which is blocked by a grid fence and an iron gate, which has been locked. Two strong guards with telescopic sticks and pocket knives hanging from their waists are standing outside the iron gate.

On the other side, because of the dim light of alchemy technology reflected by the dark green metal walls, coupled with the wind blowing through the metal gaps from time to time, it sounds like women and children crying, adding a weird and terrifying atmosphere to this empty corridor.

Li Lin stared at the picture on the screen intently, "I'm going in."

"How's the situation?" Caitlin asked hastily.

"This floor...should be the patient's living area."

On the screen from the drone, rows of thick steel gates that are only used in explosion-proof rooms or shelters are tightly bonded to the metal walls of the corridor.

The round dim yellow one-way explosion-proof glass is located in the center of the door, and the internal situation can be observed from the outside, but not even a trace of light from the outside can be seen inside.

Li Lin controls a drone to monitor the movement of the guards outside the grid iron gate, and another drone quickly passes over the one-way glass at the head of each blast-proof door.

The structure of each room is even simpler.

There is only an iron bed without a mattress, a toilet, and a washstand that does not know whether the water can come out, but there is nothing else.

There are no patients in most of the rooms, only occasionally there are patients with strange behaviors in a few rooms, sitting on the bed, talking on the ground, or even kowtowing, patients of different ages.

Without exception, they were all skinny, with dull faces and dull eyes, as if they had no self-consciousness at all.

Seeing the worrying situation in front of him, Li Lin's expression became more and more serious.

This is not treating the sick at all, but simply locking them up like livestock, and the treatment is not even as good as the harshest Stillwater Prison in Piltover.

Caitlin noticed the change in Li Lin's expression, "Did you find anything?"

"Patients, several mental patients, they are all locked in the room..."

Li Lin quickly described what he saw.

"Raymond Keane and Oswald are fucking bastards!" Cord couldn't help but slapped his legs and scolded, "Are we going to rush in with our brothers?"

He pulled out the swing stick from his waist, and looked at Fandre with fiery eyes.

"Don't be impulsive, calm down!"

Without waiting for Vander to respond, Caitlin turned her head and glared at Cord with a serious expression.

"From what Li Lin observed, these people only violated the "Human Rights Protection Law" and the "Medical Management System Regulations."

"Let me ask you, is this the result you want?"

Being reprimanded by Caitlin, Cord touched his bald head, smiled coquettishly, retracted the stick and did not speak again.

At this time, Li Lin, who controlled the two drones and quickly turned a few turns, came to the end of the corridor on the second floor and suddenly discovered a new situation.

There were two middle-aged men in white coats holding medical records and hard shell pens in their hands, talking while walking towards the elevator directly in front of them.

"By the way, how is the patient in your hand?"

"After my diagnosis, he had symptoms of eating disorders in addition to severe depression and mania, but with my help, he began to eat obediently."

One of them, a middle-aged man with a thin body and a Mediterranean hairstyle, laughed.

Another man who looked a little younger asked curiously: "How did you do it? I remember that guy had been trying to attack you before?"

"Hmph! To deal with this kind of patients, of course we have to prescribe the right medicine."

The bald man snorted coldly, "A while ago, I asked the guards to tie him to a chair with iron nails. If he doesn't eat obediently, I'll pull out one of his nails."

The bald man became excited, his eyes flickered, and a distorted smile appeared on his face.

"I started with the toenails, then the fingernails... but his symptoms were so severe that I pulled out 20 of his nails and it didn't cure him.

"Later, I soaked his hands and feet in salt water, and then started pulling out his teeth with pliers. When the fifth tooth came out, I cured him."

"You are nothing short of a genius, Mr Ashworth! How did I not think of that?"

Another man chimed in, sounding remorseful.

"I have been giving my schizophrenic patient injections of therapeutic agents and lobotomy, but he still hasn't survived."

"You still have a lot to learn, Litton." Asyworth patted Litton on the shoulder and said earnestly, "As long as you study with me, you will definitely become a great attending psychiatrist like me."

"I will!" Litton said excitedly.

"By the way, didn't Baron Raymond Keane send in another patient recently? The baron specifically asked us to take good care of him... How is his condition?"

Litton opened the medical records and checked them quickly.

After a brief pause, he listed more than a dozen mental illnesses: "Well, according to our preliminary observations, the patient suffers from delusional disorder, schizophrenia, depression, obsessive-compulsive and body-related disorders..."

"It seems that the patient's condition is very serious." Ashworth had a strange worried look on his face, "Where is he now?"

"In the past few days, we let him live in the room outside the basement operating room."

"Very well, he needs an operation immediately." The corners of Asyworth's mouth were raised high, "Let's start with the nerve puncture operation first."
