Chapter 1024: Surgery

Mr. G sighed and wanted to say something, but in the end, he chose not to say it out. He just nodded instead.

“Thank you, F.”

“I have kept the promise and completed my task. And now, I don’t know if you can keep the promise to others like me,” Miss F said casually. “I remember you once said that once a person no longer keeps their promise, they are no longer worthy of being trusted.”

“It’s a long story...” Mr. G looked a little helpless. “Furthermore, according to our agreement, he has to first give me the memory encoder before I can find someone to perform the surgery on him.”

“But at that time, he also believed that you wanted him to be the courier for this transaction, rather than using him as bait,” F said, not mincing her words.

“How did you know all these things, especially when you just came back? Who told you about this? Black, or Miyata and his gang?”

“Why ask? Are you going to treat them as moles and kill them?” F asked rhetorically.

“No. That’s not what I intend to do. I don’t keep secrets from you. I wasn’t completely honest with you this time only because I wanted to trick the Shengtang Morgan Group,” Mr. G explained.

“Let’s put business aside first and extract the tracking device from his head,” F pointed at Zhang Heng on the side.

“So, does that mean that you are going to choose him over me?” Mr. G said after a moment of silence. “You are not forgetting about your past, right?”

“Yes, I will never forget my past, but this has nothing to do with that. If you want the memory encoder, he is the only person that can give it to you. You better fulfill his conditions, just like when he needed you to perform the operation on him and accepted the test you gave him. I thought you could understand such a simple matter. Or, has your pride and self-esteem affected your ability for basic judgment?” F asked unceremoniously.

Mr. G did not answer immediately. His eyes flickered in the night as if thinking about what F had said. Finally, he took a deep breath and looked at Zhang Heng, who had not spoken yet and was drinking his tea in a relaxed manner.

“This time, I broke my promise first. It’s understandable that you don’t trust me. I have already contacted the doctor who is in charge of the surgery as agreed. He is waiting for you in the hospital we visited before. He can perform the surgery on you anytime you want. By the way, F will go with you. Although you don’t have to worry about me rewriting your memory while the doctor works on you, you might feel more at ease if she is there.”

Mr. G then paused at this point. “I will prepare the new identities for your two friends right away, as well as the fifty shellac records you requested.”

“When you have completed all the tasks, I will hand over the memory encoder to you.” Zhang Heng put down his teacup.

“No need,” Mr. G said. “You too, join us and witness the birth of a new world. F is right. Other than the memory encoder, I also need your strength.”

Zhang Heng wanted to reject the offer, but Mr. G continued to talk before Zhang Heng could say anything. “Even if the tracker is removed from your head and your company can no longer track you, are you planning to remain anonymous and live forever in the darkness on the first level? ”

“I don’t mind it at all,” Zhang Heng shrugged.

“What about your friends? Those of you who are still living in the dreams of lies, ignorance, and being used as tools? You should also be aware that the revolution is not going to move by itself, right?”

Zhang Heng smiled upon hearing the words. “After what happened tonight, are you still expecting that I will help you to bring forward the new world? You might as well just wash up and sleep earlier.”

“I don’t need you to bring forward the new world,” Mr. G said. “Actually, I have been preparing for this grand scheme for so many years. I have almost completed it now. After you hand me the memory encoder, I will be able to complete the puzzle. By that time, the new world will be upon us, and you don’t need to do anything. All you need to do is to witness it.”

“However, everything new is extremely fragile at its inception. What’s more, we are now carrying out a revolution. Even after the plan is executed successfully, there are still a lot of problems to be solved. If we are not careful, we may fall into a deeper abyss. By that, it means we will need your strength. Not to expand our territory, but to protect it.”

“Don’t say no to me first. Anyway, you still have lots of time to consider.”

At the same time, F also said, “Let’s proceed with your surgery first.”

After speaking, she did not look at Mr. G again, turning and walking out of the garden instead.

...

F then started the black MPV parked by the entrance and brought Zhang Heng and Feng Zi to the operating room.

And this time, Mr. G finally kept his promise. The surgeon was there waiting for Zhang Heng. Since the tracking device was located under the cerebral cortex, it made it extremely difficult to remove; its difficulty ranking first among all surgeries. It required the use of the latest generation Da Vinci surgical robots, and there were only so many capable of performing such surgery in New Shanghai 0297, two in this case.

Dr. Gu, who was standing in front of Zhang Heng now, was one. The director of the three-story central hospital, he was in his fifties, but his body was well maintained. His youthful appearance, however, made him looked like he was in his forties.

Zhang Heng wondered how Mr. G managed to invite him here to perform the surgery on him. Dr. Gu, too, didn’t ask any questions unrelated to the operation. Instead, he acted like he did not know Zhang Heng was a clone. While they were talking, Dr. Gu used another word to replace the “tracking device” word. After that, the assistant asked Zhang Heng to do a series of checkups to determine the surgical plan.

Meanwhile, Zhang Heng, on the other side, had already shaved off his hair, changed into a surgical gown, and had laid on the operating table.

He did not talk to F anymore, and the latter never promised him anything either. The two just glanced at each other.

F then said to Feng Zi on the side. “The surgery could get very bloody. You’d better go out.”

“How about you?”

F did not answer the question with words. Instead, she answered this question with her actions. She took her saber and stood at the side of the operating table near the entrance. By standing there, she could stop anyone that tried to interrupt the surgery.

“Since you are not afraid, then I am not as well.”

Feng Zi was a bold woman. After hearing what F said, she opened her eyes wide and watched curiously as the anesthesiologist gassed Zhang Heng.

When the anesthesia started to take effect, Dr. Gu marked the incision line on Zhang Heng’s head, fixed it on the head frame. He then made an incision on the scalp with a scalpel, all the way down until the skull was exposed. He then proceeded to open up the skull using an electric drill and a milling cutter, completely ignoring the two women in the operating room.
