Magus Tech Chapter 251: Blood and syringe
Night, laboratory, main laboratory.
On a small square table, there is a candlestick for lighting, and a lot of food is placed around the candlestick. On the side of the small square table was a chair, and there was someone on the chair, holding cutlery and cutting food, obviously a dinner was going on.
As the only participant of the dinner—Gutas, he was full of doubts in his heart at this time.
First of all, his memory has some confusion.
He clearly remembered that he had laboriously untied the rope and gained freedom. But what happened later seemed to show from the side that he was just asleep—because when Richard returned to wake him up, he found himself still firmly tied to the ground.
Could it be that he was thinking too much? Could it be that he didn't escape at all, and the memory of escaping was just a dream when he was sleeping?
Thinking of this, Gutas put down the tableware in his hand and rubbed his face slightly. For some reason, he always felt that his whole face was a little swollen, and his eyes couldn't be opened, as if he had been beaten.
Of course, this is just a trivial matter, what makes him more confused is the situation in front of him - he is obviously just a prisoner who was caught, but Richard who arrested him brought him a lot of food for him to eat .
Why is this?
Could it be that Li Cha is out of some kind of gratitude, or is it a reward for his previous honesty? However, what he told Li Cha earlier was obviously false.
Why?
Could it be that for some reason, Li Cha had some fear of him, and was going to please him first, and then let him go?
This is simply unreasonable.
Gutas was puzzled and confused, but this did not prevent him from eating.
At this time, his whole body was tied to a chair, but he could move within a certain range with one hand.
Cut off a fat, tender and juicy thigh of marinated chicken with utensils, grab it, and bring it to your mouth. Turning the neck and tearing it hard, he bit off a big mouthful of meat, chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed it with a "gudong". After a while, I ate the chicken legs clean, chewed the bones with a few "clicks and clicks", and swallowed them into my stomach.
After eating the chicken legs, I took the bread again, and inserted the bread into the broth bowl. Soak the bread softly, bring it to his mouth, open his mouth to bite, and swallow quickly - he is really hungry.
Soon, Gutas was half full. While continuing to eat, he looked at Li Cha who was sitting next to him, blinked his eyes, and said in a buzzing voice: "Boy, you'd better let me go!"
"Huh?" Li Cha looked at Gutas and asked, "Why?"
"Because..." Gutas was speechless, swallowed the fragrant steak with a "gudong", and it took a long time to find the threatening words, and said in a cold voice, "Because...you won't let me go, wait until I escape After coming here, you must look good. Let me tell you, I have killed many people, many people!"
"..." Li Cha looked at Gutas, didn't speak, and remained silent.
Gutas was also silent, scratching his head with his oily hands, feeling that the reason for this threat was hard to understand even himself: What kind of threat is this? No substantive retaliation at all!
Tearing off a wing of the smoked duck with some depression, Gutas ate slowly. After a long time, he finally thought of the right words, looked at Richard and said, "If you don't let me go, wait for my When my friends know that I am with you, they will definitely rescue me, and I will make you look good."
"So..." Li Cha looked at Gutas, "The underlying meaning of your words is that your friends don't know you are here at all, right? So it means that before you came to my place, you came out Due to certain considerations, I did not disclose your plan to anyone, and now no one knows your whereabouts. If this is the case, what am I afraid of?"
"I..." Gutas was at a loss for words again, and wanted to slap himself: I owe you something!
Eating the smoked duck wings in great depression, Gutas picked up the fried egg and ate it.
After eating a whole fried egg, Gutas recognized the situation he was in, looked at Li Cha, and decided to give in. He opened and closed his lips and made a sound. Although it was still a little cold, his tone eased a lot: "Boy, well, I admit it, I shouldn't come to you to steal things. But I'm just stealing things, and I didn’t succeed, and I didn’t offend you, why don’t you let me go.”
"I'm afraid it won't work."
"Why?"
"You said before that you have killed people, many people."
"It wasn't you, nor your relatives who killed them. Besides, those people are dead, what does it have to do with you?!"
"Yes, it has nothing to do with me. But if I don't let you go, what does it have to do with you?"
"I..."
Gutas gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and said calmly: "Even so, if you don't let me go, it won't do you any good, right? If you tie me here, you not only have to look at me with fear, but also Give me food and drink. I won't bring you any value, but keep wasting your money. It's not worth it, why don't you let me go."
"No no no." Li Cha shook his head, looked at Gutas and said, "You underestimate yourself, your value is actually much greater than you imagined."
"Huh?" Gutas wondered, "What value?"
Li Cha did not answer immediately, but asked Gutas: "Seeing that you talk so much, are you full?"
"Ah..." Gutas felt that there might be a trap in this sentence, and didn't know how to answer it.
Li Cha nodded: "Well, it seems that we are full, so we can do some research. I brought these foods, not just for you to eat, but for testing A series of your data - starting from eating and digesting, gradually testing your state, body value, basal metabolic rate, etc. Next, I will draw some blood for you, um, just draw some blood, don't be nervous."
As Li Cha was talking, he walked to the cabinet next to him, opened a drawer, and took out a black wooden box. Open the wooden box, and inside is a syringe.
Though, the theory of the syringe was proposed by the Italian Catinelle in the late Middle Ages ~IndoMTL.com~ on modern Earth. But it was not until 1657 in the seventeenth century that the British conducted the first human experiments. Then in 1853 in the 19th century, the Frenchman Pravoz produced a silver syringe with a capacity of only 1 ml, which was a real invention success.
Therefore, in the current wizarding world similar to the Middle Ages, there is no such thing as a syringe. The syringe in the box was made by Richard according to the technology on the modern earth.
Because of the lack of many raw materials, the syringes made by Richard are a bit rough and bulky:
The main body is not plastic, but made of glass. Although it is convenient to observe the liquid inside, it is fragile. And because of the increased weight, some operational difficulties have arisen. In addition, very prominent is the huge needle. Because of the current world's craftsmanship problems, the thickness of the needle is a bit exaggerated, and it is more like a murder awl than a needle.
Li Cha is thinking, maybe he can do it himself, with the help of the space iron ring and other methods, to make a set of relatively fine tools for use. But it will take a certain amount of time, and it's too late now, so I can only make do with a crude syringe.
Thinking like this, Li Cha walked towards Gutas with a syringe in his hand, and Gutas' eyes widened slightly.
