48 Hours a Day

The locator in Zhang Heng's head was programmed when it came out of the factory and automatically melted once signal propagation was blocked for more than eight hours, causing irreversible damage to the wearer's cerebral cortex.

Zhang Heng was in the amusement park before, because the signal blocking time was almost eight hours, he had to remove the shield from his hand for a while, and when he lay on the operating table, he had less than five hours left to automatically melt the locator.

And this time, in order to ensure that Shengtang Morgan doesn't know that Zhang Heng is still alive, Dr. Gu needs to complete the surgery within five hours to remove the locator under the cerebral cortex for Zhang Heng.

Even for Dr. Gu, who is known as the first surgeon in the new Shanghai 0297 surgery, this remains a very serious challenge.

And now four hours have passed, the doctor Gu's back of the main knife has been completely soaked with sweat, and the assistant beside him doesn't know how many times to wipe the sweat on his forehead.

Because the surgery required a high degree of mental concentration, Dr. Gu was often unable to blink his eyes for a long time, which also filled his orbit with blood silk.

Not far away, the peak had fallen asleep against the wall, and although she had not been frightened by the scene of the surgery, she had experienced all kinds of exciting things all night. She had reached her limit physically and mentally, eventually closing her eyes before sunrise and entering her dreamland.

As for Miss F on the other side, there was no change, she stood like a stone at the door of the operating room, silent, in the same position, even making the little nurse in the operating room suspect that she was a robot.

Finally, after four hours and 30 minutes of hard battle, Dr. Gu manipulated the surgical robot to pull a wire only a few dozen microns in diameter from Zhang Heng's cerebral cortex.

It's this little thing that continuously transmits the location of the clone to the data center, and when needed, it can be positioned as if it were a collar around the neck, leaving the clone with nowhere to go.

“It's really like a puppeteer manipulating the thread of a puppet in his hand.” Dr. Gu looked at the wire cut under the tweezer and mumbled.

Miss F also had a rare contraction of her pupils when she saw the wire cut.

Then, at the first moment, she pulled out the sword between her waist and cut the wire in the hand of the surgical robot into two ends.

“How long till the surgery is over?” Miss F plugged the sword back into her waist and consulted the doctor.

“Pretty soon, the rest is the stitched fixed part. ”

“Thank you, then.” Miss F bowed slightly.

Dr. Gu courtesy, then looked at Miss F's mechanical prosthetic limb, seemed to think of something, his eyes flashed, but eventually he only said, “Your left hand is beautiful. ”

“Thank you, Doctor. ”

…………

Forty minutes later, in Zhang Heng's ward, Miss F lit a cigarette and looked out the gray-covered street, wondering what she was trying to write.

The next moment there was a voice behind her, "No smoking in the ward, I suppose. ”

Miss F turned around and saw that Zhang Heng had opened her eyes in the hospital bed. She looked surprised. "I didn't expect you to wake up so early. I thought the anesthetic was going to be here for a while. ”

“Well, I had the anesthesiologist give me a partial reduction in the amount of anesthesia.” Zhang Heng touched the position of his skull connections.

“Why did you do that? ”

“If I don't succeed, I have some time to prepare for the police and assassins sent by Shengtang Morgan, and the worst that can happen is that I can see my skull put back.” Zhang Heng sat up from the bed as he spoke.

“I thought you wanted me to come to protect you. ”

“Yeah, but I'm probably used to doing the worst things.” Zhang Heng was dressed, but he was not worried that Mr. G would do him any harm. After all, he was the only one who knew the whereabouts of the memory encoder. At least until he handed over the memory encoder, Mr. G could no longer touch him or even protect him.

Technically, this was in a much better position than when the parties first agreed. Zhang Heng was more vigilant on Shengtang Morgan's side. If he was found dead, he might send a stronger guy to deal with him.

Although the emergency response team at the beginning of Zero is already Shengtang Morgan's strongest armed force, Zhang Heng will not be naive enough to think that Shengtang Morgan is the only means. The other party is the owner of the new Shanghai 0297, and far from owning this new city, it is a huge and well-deserved human society.

Mr. G, as the actual ruler of the first level of space in the new Shanghai 0297, is also a dominant party. However, in the face of Shengtang Morgan can't even count as a grasshopper, Zhang Heng has not figured out the problem. Even if Mr. G really pushed the social transformation of the new Shanghai 0297 by some means, once Shengtang Morgan feels his interests are damaged, he can send an overwhelming force to regain the new Shanghai 0297. What will Mr. G do?

Zhang Heng has a hunch, maybe the answer to this question is on his memory encoder.

“Sorry.”

Miss F's voice pulled someone back from her mind.

“Why do you say that? It wasn't you who broke the covenant.” Zhang Heng asked that he had previously suspected Miss F of being involved, but none of the 10 couriers on that night, or the Special Operations Unit that appeared later, confirmed that Miss F had anything to do with the matter.

And the latter is all the more so because of this, riding a motorcycle directly into Mr. G's garden and even fighting over Zhang Heng's outsider and his own fiancé.

“You chose to accept the job because of your trust in me, so it is my responsibility to refer you to him, and, after all, he is my fiancé, and I naturally have to pay half for the mistakes he made.” Miss F.

“Are you disappointed in him tonight? ”

“Why do you ask?” Miss F looked up at Zhang Heng and took a good look, “Each of us could have made a mistake, compared to the others he had already done well, he was an excellent leader, after I reminded him, he also realized his mistake and was willing to make up for it, you heard what he said, I think you both should let go of your hostility towards each other, focus on what really needs attention, prepare for so long, we finally have all the puzzles together and can take the first step. ”
