Chapter 147 The Jeffrey Family
Chapter 147 The Jeffrey Family
Jack Lee was leaning against the wall at the entrance of the operating room, holding a cigarette in his hand, and kept putting it in front of his nose to take a few sips. It had been many days since he brought Xuanhui back from the Nicholas house, and the situation was not optimistic. Repeatedly.Early this morning, while he was taking a nap on the chair, Xuan Hui's various statistics were uploaded again.Although the attending doctor said that he is already developing in a good direction, the reality is very urgent and there is no time for him to recover slowly.
The hospital where Xuan Hui was located was contacted by Amyra, and it was an affiliated hospital of an unknown medical school.The hospital's medical resources are mediocre, but they seem to be no strangers to Xuan Hui's illness.Jack Lee didn't do any further investigation on this, one thing is like a mountain, he only understands mechs and history, not medicine; the other one is that it was Kara's arrangement to come to Phil Frank, and Kara would not make fun of Xuanhui's life.
A few days ago, whenever Xuanhui got sick, Amyla would rush over no matter how busy she was, but today was an accident, and she hasn't come yet.Without Amyra, Jack Lee was a little bit lost, and at this moment, he saw Phil Frank who had rushed over.
Phil Frank was dressed in simple casual clothes and had messy hair on top of his head. At first glance, no one would associate him with the Union Marshal, but he was just an ordinary civilian.
Seeing Jack Lee, Phil Frank hurriedly explained: "Amila is in a hurry, and a very important person is coming, and she must pick it up in person."
Jack Lee had received contact information from Phil Frank, and knew that the other party would be going to the Military Security Bureau to discuss Kara's affairs in the next few days.This is a very important matter, but Amyla asked Phil Frank to rush over, explaining that the person she was going to pick up was more important, and Jack Lee couldn't help being a little surprised.
Phil Frank explained: "Amila didn't go into details, she only said that it was related to Xuan Hui's matter."
Jack Li breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. This must be good news, which means that Xuanhui's illness is hopeful. He relaxed his tense nerves, shook his cigarette and said, "I can finally go out and have a good smoke."
Phil Frank's expression did not relax: "You may have to endure it for a while."
Jack Lee's intuition was very keen. Phil Frank had just gone to the Military Security Bureau. If he, who has always been excellent in ability, would say such a thing, it must be because something went wrong with Kara. He quickly asked, "What went wrong?"
"Kevin proposed that his Second Fleet carry out the delivery mission."
"What the hell is he trying to do?" Jack Lee said in a very bad tone, "It's not good for Kara, it's not good for his own reputation! Does he still have a future?"
"I also tried to persuade him very kindly through this point, but it didn't work. It almost made him doubt my and Clark's motives." Phil Frank said with some guilt, after all, he didn't complete the matter in the end.
The second half of Phil Frank's sentence made Jack Lee roughly guess the reason: "I guess it's because Kevin and Kara have worked together for many years and are too familiar with Kara's habits, and Kara doesn't have much reservations about him. , so he guessed it."
Phil Frank nodded: "I thought about it carefully on the way back, and I came to a similar conclusion."
"If you continue to guess like this, you and Clark should pay more attention. I'm afraid he will guess that you are also collaborators." Jack Lee reminded, while being very angry with Kevin's actions.Kara has never treated Kevin harshly in these years. He gave him a stage to display his talents, gave him corresponding powers, and blocked the troubles of the Egbert family for him. The entire fleet except the mecha regiment was given to Kevin. What's not to like?
"Kevin's specific thoughts are unknown, but there is one thing that is beneficial to us. He is not sure whether Clark and I have conspired or not. After this matter is over, we will have nothing to do with each other. He thinks It’s hard to find out,” Phil Frank said.
Jack Lee shook his head, disapproving of Phil Frank's opinion: "I have read more history than you, and I know more about the dangers of such people than you. If it can be done, Kevin cannot be allowed to live."
Phil Frank did not answer immediately, and Jack Lee warned: "The consequences of appeasement and adultery are serious."
"I think about it!" Phil Frank replied.
At this moment, Amyla arrived, and she rarely walked quickly, and said with a smile on her face: "The person is finally here!"
Phil Frank and Jack Lee looked at Amyra at the same time, and Amyra walked back immediately with a smile, and respectfully invited an old man to come over.
The old man was full of white hair, hale and hearty, and his expression was a little serious. When he saw Phil Frank, he simply nodded his head.
Phil Frank was not a person who cared too much about etiquette, so he didn't express his dissatisfaction, but only smiled back.
The old man's seriousness disappeared a bit, and he said to Amyra, "Where are people?"
"Come with me, please! Mr. Jeffrey." Amyra said with a smile, and led the old man into the operating room, and gave Phil Frank an ok gesture before closing the door.
Jack Lee rubbed his chin and said uncertainly: "I once heard a legend about the Jeffrey family. It is said that this is a very magical family. A family that does not accept genetic modification. This family gathers a large number of ordinary people who are also unwilling to accept genetic modification. After a difficult voyage, they finally survive on an Earth-like planet. That planet has been affected by many intelligent aliens. No one knows whether the attack still exists. I wonder if this old gentleman has anything to do with this family?"
"It doesn't matter whether he has anything to do with it, as long as he can be cured, right?" Phil Frank said with a smile, if the old man is really from this family, it will be an extremely great temptation for the current perverted field of genetic modification, or It's better not to mention it lightly.
The old man changed clothes with Amyla and entered the operating room. Xuan Hui was placed in the petri dish, his face was pale, his brows were furrowed, and the strange protrusions under the skin of his body moved along the blood vessels.After these days of treatment, these protrusions are slightly less, but if these protrusions are not completely resolved, Xuan Hui will not be able to recover.
The old man signaled everyone except Amyra to go out. All the medical staff in the surgery team were Amyla's confidantes. After seeing the signal, they each found an excuse to leave here temporarily.
The old man turned on the portable optical brain and docked with Xuanhui's body.Xuan Hui's problem is not in the body, but in the running program in the body, the program is chaotic and needs to be sorted out again.
Amyra was in charge of paying attention to the various values of Xuanhui's body. The old man couldn't help but sigh: "I miss you so much! Compared with the military command department, you are more suitable for studying medicine."
Jeffrey is the teacher of Emira and Brandy, a very outstanding master in the field of genetic modification of the Star Alliance, because he is very low-key and rarely publishes academic papers, so he is rarely known.The patriarch of the Balk family was kind to him back then, so he made an exception to accept Amyla and Brandy as students.It's a pity that the Balk family's absurd succession to the patriarch has caused Amyra's generation to wither and suffer. One of her and Brandy must go to the military academy.Amyla knew that Brandy's personality was not suitable for staying in the Alliance Fleet, and Brandy was far more talented than her, so she gave up medicine and switched to the Military Academy.
Thinking of the past, she smiled wryly: "I failed the teacher's love."
Jeffrey sighed: "Things are not up to others, and so are you."
The prototype of the program of Canglong Heart was actually written by Jeffrey, and Brandy finally compiled and perfected it through long-term deduction practice.Now that Jeffrey is sorting out the entire program, there are basically no major obstacles. Instead, some small bugs have been modified and some programs he has written in recent years have been added.
Looking at the gradually stabilized data, Amyla couldn't help laughing at Jeffrey and said, "The teacher is very satisfied with Xuan Hui!"
"Can you be dissatisfied? My precious grandson's heart is on him!" Jeffrey spoke with a childlike resentment, like an old urchin.
Emira couldn't help but shook her head with a smile. Jeffrey only had one daughter. The daughter and son-in-law died young, and their child was Kara.
"Back then, I was not as good as others, so I could only reluctantly hand him over. Now that I can help a little bit, I have fulfilled my elder's responsibility." Jeffrey sighed. If it wasn't for not handing over Kara, everyone would have kept the secret. The unmodified humans hidden in the alliance are all exposed, and he will not hand Kara over.
Amyra knew that this incident was a pain in Jeffrey's heart for many years. For this reason, he has been silently helping Carla for so many years but never dared to see Carla.Now that Kara is about to leave, and Jeffrey will never see his beloved grandson in this life, Amyla can't help persuading: "Teacher, you should go see Kara."
Jeffrey's hand stopped, and then he sighed and shook his head: "It's still gone!" After one side, it will be a farewell. Instead of meeting to deepen the impression, it is better to maintain the status quo and fade away.
Amyra knew what Jeffrey was thinking, and gave up persuasion with a sigh.
"Okay, I'm going to regain his consciousness, keep an eye on the data!" Jeffrey looked at Amyra, and after Amyra said that he was ready, he pressed the OK button.
Xuan Hui's self-awareness recovered almost instantly after pressing the button, and various physiological data soared accordingly.He realized that he was put into the petri dish again, and the moment he opened his eyes, he was ready to smash the petri dish inside and get out.
"Stop!" Emily yelled, but the petri dish had been smashed by Xuan Hui, so she had no choice but to protect Jeffrey behind her.
But Jeffrey signaled Amyra not to panic, and asked Xuan Hui kindly with a smile: "I am your doctor, how do you feel? Is there any discomfort?"
Jeffrey's voice was very kind, unlike a crazy doctor like Hoffman, Xuan Hui's attitude changed slightly, and he asked cautiously: "Where am I?"
"In the hospital!" Jeffrey replied while observing Xuanhui's situation. Seeing that the other party's attitude changed, his defensive posture did not relax. Is the person he is familiar with?"
"Yes!" Amyra immediately contacted Phil Frank through the private secret communication channel and asked him to tell Jack Lee to come in.
Jack Lee hurried into the operating room, and became angry when he saw the mess all over the floor: "Boy, you can, you just woke up and made it like this, tell you, your boss, I have no money, I can't afford it of."
When Jack Lee's familiar tone came, Xuan Hui let go of his vigilance, put away his defensive posture, and gasped weakly: "Where am I? How is Kara?"
Seeing Xuan Hui's tottering appearance, Jack Li hurried to help him up: "Boy, can you lie down obediently before asking questions?"
Xuan Hui didn't listen, and asked resolutely, "How is Kara?"
"I'll tell you after I lie down!" Jack Li insisted, while Xuan Hui had already seen from the other party's silent attitude that Kara was not doing well recently, so he immediately cheered up and wanted to go out.
Jack Li immediately stopped him, and Xuanhui fell into his arms with only a slight force, and he couldn't stand up anymore, so he couldn't help teaching: "Boy, since you guessed that the result was not good, you should know that you are now You can't do anything, just lie back obediently."
Xuan Hui was quite annoyed at his uselessness, and Jeffrey comforted him when he saw this: "As long as you cooperate, I can restore you to your original state in two days."
Jeffrey's tone was as calm and convincing as ever. Xuan Hui knew that he didn't understand the medical skills of this era, and making rash judgments would lead to future troubles. He could only choose to trust others temporarily, and said, "Okay, I will cooperate."
