Chapter 3 Hard Choices(1/2)
"Bang bang bang!" Shake it gently, and a clear sound comes, there is something inside.
The Eye of Insight gave Huang An the information he wanted.
[Cancer suppression pill box that is about to expire: produced by 2055 Bank Galaxy. The pills in it can greatly inhibit the growth of human cancer cells. It will expire in three months and will completely lose its efficacy. Quantity: 1. Exchange price: 0.45kg gold. ]
[Please note that you need to drink plenty of warm water when taking it, as there may be some side effects.]
Huang An didn't care about the nine taels of gold. He stared at the unknown fonts on the medicine box.
Is that a "cancer inhibitor tablet"?
This is something he urgently needs.
Is it a conspiracy? He doesn't care anymore.
People who are about to die have nothing to worry about.
Huang An swallowed, his throat felt stinging, and he felt the slightest desire to eat.
This feeling of surging life once made him cry.
He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had the feeling of eating.
He wants to swallow this pill.
He has nine taels of gold and keeps it in his office!
It only takes less than half a minute for him to get this pill.
However, Huang An stopped and his hands paused.
He was very suspicious. First of all, he didn't know whether the effect of this medicine was the same as described by the Eye of Insight.
In other words, the ability of the Eye of Insight itself has not yet been verified.
Of course, this worry is actually very unnecessary for Huang An. The existence that can bring him here will not deceive him on such a matter.
Huang An is really worried for another reason.
Because he didn't know whether there were any side effects after taking the medicine, and whether he would still be able to continue unfinished daily tasks immediately after taking the medicine.
If he fell into a coma or other extremely weak state immediately after taking the medicine and lost the ability to work, then he would definitely die.
Once time is delayed and the task expires, he will be forcibly erased.
This is exactly what Huang An is worried about.
On the first day after arriving at the Wanjie Junkyard, Huang An was killed because he delayed his daily work by taking medicine. Huang An did not allow such a stupid thing to happen to him.
He can die of illness, but he cannot die of stupidity!
Putting the medicine bottle away alone, Huang An calmed down, stood up again, suppressed his inner excitement and eagerness, and repeated his previous work.
But now, he felt that his body suddenly had a little strength.
That is the desire for life, and desire brings power that even the disease cannot stop.
Thirty minutes passed. Huang An threw the last shovelful of plaster and wet waste paper into the garbage entrance, staring at the timer opposite.
[The weight of garbage that needs to be cleaned up: 0kg.]
A familiar voice suddenly appeared in my mind.
[Today’s task is completed, you can choose to rest or continue cleaning up the garbage.]
"Hoo, ho!"
Huang An untied the self-cleaning protective suit, then fell to the ground, opened his mouth, and breathed heavily like a drowning person.
Sweat flowed down his cheeks, blurring his vision. His neck was wet with the sticky sweat from his head, and his whole body felt uncomfortable. There seemed to be a swarm of ants biting his flesh and blood, but Huang An felt comfortable inside.
He will soon be able to live for one more month, and there seems to be a glimmer of hope for continued survival.
After resting for about five minutes, Huang An's body regained some strength. He didn't get up. He simply sat on the ground, silently reciting the numbers, and prepared to leave.
"Get out."
"Ten, nine, eight..."
"One."
Just after ten seconds, Huang An's body suddenly swayed, and then the world began to spin, and everything in front of him changed drastically.
Suddenly.
"Meow~"
A cat meow suppressed the desire to vomit in Huang An's throat.
My own cat.
The old cat's voice sounded at the window, and then there was a burst of noise. Huang An knew that the old cat had come in.
Sure enough, the sound of purring soon sounded around me, and I felt the softness of the hair on my arms, as well as a trace of warmth from the old cat.
Due to the pain and suffering, Huang An's vision became worse and worse. He touched it forward and found that it was warm and soft.
"Meow~"
Smiling, Huang An suppressed the desire to vomit again in his throat, pushed the old cat, and struggled to get up.
The symptoms of pancreatic cancer are too many and too torturous.
"Puff, puff, puff!"
After patting the dust on his butt, Huang An staggered, took two steps, and fumbled to turn on the incandescent lamp.
This is his office and his bedroom. Huang An is very familiar with this room.
After turning on the light, Huang An suppressed his excitement and walked straight to his desk.
Pulling out the key from under the book on the desk, Huang An bent down slightly and inserted the key into the key of a drawer under the desk.
When the key is inserted, there is a crisp sound and the drawer opens.
Huang An took a deep breath, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.
There are about five kilograms of gold in this drawer.
This is what he saved since childhood.
The waste treatment plant opened by my adoptive parents in the suburbs of Tan City has been in operation for more than 30 years.
Huang An was picked up from the trash by his adoptive parents. He was just born when they picked him up.
Huang An has known about his life experience since he was a child, and his adoptive parents did not hide it from him. After all, both adoptive parents were congenitally infertile. After picking up Huang An, they also gave up the idea of having children.
Although the factory is not big, it is not too small either. Huang An grew up among scraps and found many good things, including a lot of gold and silver jewelry.
The adoptive parents all gave it to Huang An.
If the owner comes to the door, they will naturally return it to the owner.
If the owner doesn't come to find it, it will be easy for Huang An in the factory to leave it for a while.
Coupled with the love of his adoptive parents who treat him as their own son, Huang An can receive at least one piece of gold jewelry every month.
He melted the gold and made it into medium-sized golden lumps.
After all, he still has enough pocket money, and there is no need to sell the gold.
The gold lies quietly in the drawer, which is Huang An's hope for survival.
Without choosing too much, Huang An took out a round piece of gold, weighing about two or three kilograms, and then recited the number silently.
Soon, Huang An's figure disappeared into the house.
"Meow~"
"Meow~"
There were bursts of rapid meowing from the old cat in the house, and the sound was very rapid.
This old cat is very understanding of human nature. It senses that its close partner is almost dead.
Now that it suddenly disappeared, I was even more anxious.
The central location of Wanjie Garbage Dump Square is located at Huang'an Station.
"Use 0.45kg gold to exchange for cancer inhibitor."
Huang An holds medicine in one hand and gold in the other.
The next moment.
[The exchange is successful, you can freely handle your items.]
As soon as he finished speaking, his right hand holding the gold suddenly felt light.
About a pound lighter.
Huang An looked overjoyed, and was not interested in experimenting with Wanjie Junkyard's ability to transfer space and automatically cut gold.
He recited the numbers silently and soon left the garbage dump of all realms.
