This is the deepest floor underground and has only two functions:
Store precious archives, as well as corpses of people who died due to various reasons.
Before the spiritual tide revives, no one will think that the corpse needs to be guarded.
Opening the metal sealed doors that were closed layer by layer, the first thing Duke and his team saw was a T-shaped corridor, leading to the archives to the left and to the morgue to the right.
"The smell of gunpowder smoke, mixed with the unique rotten smell of corpses." Bai Yu sniffed and muttered softly.
Then, quickly keep up with Duke and Pan Ming.
After walking for a distance following the eye-catching red arrow, my vision became much brighter, and several carbon arc lamps were working.
"We were invited by Scotland Yard and the Crown to come here to collect the body."
Looking at the man who suddenly walked out of the corner, Pan Ming explained.
"Um."
Bernard nodded, his eyes lingering on Duke for a long time, as if he knew him.
"Who are you?"
Duke was also stunned.
The tall and thin man in front of me looked very similar to an old friend, but he was much thinner and more mature.
"Bernard, an intern from King's School to the Forensic Office at Scotland Yard."
"Duke, an investigator."
After a long time, the master and apprentice reunited again, but they did not reminisce about the past, because they just felt an inexplicable familiarity with each other and had never known each other before——
To be more precise, Duke and Bernard met for the first time in this world, and their special bond made them feel like old friends at first sight.
"Pass." Duke reacted first and took out a special piece of paper with the police stamp and royal seal from his pocket, "Open the door."
Bernard was frightened by last night's incident, but he did not lose his sense of proportion. He checked carefully to avoid conspirators with ulterior motives trying to confuse the pass, even though this situation was almost impossible to happen.
After staring at it for about two minutes, Bernard returned the pass, lifted up his old white coat, took out a bunch of keys from his belt, and said in a deep voice: "Follow me."
At the end of the corridor, there is a heavy iron door covered with rust stains and dents. In addition, there are several bullet holes on it, silently telling the story of the fierce battle last night.
"Clang!"
The door was fastened with the turn of the key and started to operate. The sound of gears colliding could be heard from inside. Looking at the tall and thin figure of his apprentice, Duke suppressed all his feelings and walked directly into the morgue.
There are three rows of morgue cabinets placed along the wall, with more than a dozen iron frame beds placed in the middle. They occupy most of the room.
Subconsciously, Bernard crossed his arms. The corpse cabinet was filled with a lot of ice. The ambient temperature was already in an extremely low range. Coupled with various strange events, he couldn't help but shiver.
However, this little forensic doctor who had just stepped out of campus did not leave. He wanted to work with Duke. There was no reason, it was just a sudden strong impulse.
Duke didn't care either. He, Pan Ming and others completely ignored the chill coming from the outside world, and their eyes wandered back and forth between the three rows of cabinets.
Mechanical creations don't have any special smell, and as long as they don't move or pose a threat to people, no one will notice anything strange.
Seeing that everyone was surprisingly accustomed to this environment, Bernard calmed down a little. He walked slowly to the corpse cabinet marked "No. 8" with red paint.
The sound of teeth grinding against metal was heard.
Under several gazes, a metal slide over six meters long was slowly pulled out. Trainee forensic officer Bernard calmed down and introduced:
"At about 2:30 in the morning, the royal guards escorted it over. The research materials related to it are in the archives next door. They were not damaged in the turmoil."
"Besides, I will stand here and wait until you have finished your research. I will be responsible for locking the door."
After saying that, he turned around and gave the space to the excited Duke, silently watching everyone.
The moment they opened the corpse cabinet, all the attention of Duke, Pan Ming and others were focused on the huge corpse in front of them.
Since it had been frozen for most of the night, a layer of frost had formed on the surface of the mechanical monster. Duke gently dusted it with his hands. "Judging from the surface texture of the skin, it is no different from a normal human being. You can even see fingerprints." .”
"Where's your surgery box? Lend it to me."
Hearing this, Bernard didn't hesitate at all. He quickly walked to the corner locker and took out his own exclusive storage box from it——
Rubber gloves, headrest, scalpel, rope and goggles, dissecting saw, fingerprint cover, osteotome, injection needle, ladle, bone mallet, rectal thermometer...
Duke spoke the names of these tools easily as if reciting poetry.
Once upon a time, he was a medical professor who understood living medicine and conducted in-depth research on death medicine. Now, he is a scientist who can independently develop second-generation mechas.
"let's start."
Pan Ming urged.
Duke also broke away from his memories, picked up a tool and made a basic scalpel mark on the monster's skin. The mysterious material that could withstand bullets was as thin as white paper in front of him.
Through the opening, everyone can clearly see that there are countless stiffened blood vessels inside.
"Dermal layer...blood vessels..."
Duke was too lazy to pick up the smallest scalpel, and simply tapped the capillary with a ready-made tool. An incision appeared that was invisible to the naked eye. He reached out and asked Bernard for a syringe.
The trainee forensic officer did not hesitate and stood directly at the assistant's position to deliver the tools to the surgeon.
The whole process went smoothly, as if it had been rehearsed countless times.
At the same time, Duke looked at what was being sucked out of the metal syringe and muttered: "Biological organisms?"
As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look at Bernard standing beside him, and asked naturally: "Do you have a microscope here?"
"have."
"Take it and observe it to see if it is different from human blood cells."
"Um."
Bernard still did not escape the dominance of the Duke professor, but he readily accepted it.
As the assistant left, Duke returned to the inspection and didn't even say hello when Lu Li came.
Lu Li, who had just gained a special ability, was naturally in a good mood. However, as he entered the morgue and arrived at the autopsy site, his joy disappeared instantly, at least not on his face.
At this moment, Duke did not look at the penetrating wound that caused fatal injuries to the monster, but focused on the head.
With the help of various things, the giant monster's mouth was pried open, exposing the mouth. Only two rows of teeth were covered with disgusting yellow scale.
boom! boom! boom!
After three sounds, the bone hammer shattered, and a tooth that was half the size of an adult's hand also fell out.
"A mechanical body modified by biology, with internal parts replacing various organs to provide power."
Duke came to a simple conclusion, and then continued to tinker with the giant corpse in front of him.
