Chapter 70: Unboxing a Human Chest
On the stainless steel dog grooming tub, Raka Adhitama lay with his chest wide open."Alright, my loyal followers on my as-yet-unpublished digital medical journal," Vanya's voice broke the tense silence, her tone cheerful and filled with a deeply unsettling enthusiasm.The woman in the white coat was speaking to a cracked smartphone she had clipped to the arm of the circular surgical lamp above the table, its lens aimed directly at Raka's blood-soaked chest cavity."Today, we will be performing a very special procedure," Vanya continued, ignoring Raka's muffled groans as he bit down on the roll of gauze bandage in his mouth. "We will be conducting a live troubleshooting on a malfunctioning hybrid heart micro-controller, caused by... well, usage not in accordance with the user manual by the subject."Vanya glanced at her phone's camera, her eyes sparkling behind her futuristic glasses."Let's begin this unboxing process."Raka squeezed his eyes shut, tears streaming from the corners of
Chapter 69: Body Contract (Terms & Conditions)
The sharp smell of medical alcohol and animal cage cleaner hung heavy in the stuffy air of Dr. Purr-fect's clinic. On the stainless steel dog grooming tub, Raka Adhitama lay weakly. His skin was as pale as a corpse that had spent the night in a cold room. His bio-mechanical heart pulsed with a forced and painful mechanical rhythm. Thump... thump... thump. His breathing was shallow and ragged. His eyelids were half-open, revealing only the bloodshot whites of his eyes. He was trapped in a twilight sleep—a semi-conscious state due to a lack of oxygen to the brain, where physical pain faded into a dull hum, but his ears could still pick up the sounds around him with crystal clarity. He heard the clinking of metal as Vanya arranged the veterinary surgical tools on a tray. He heard Luna's angry, held breath from the corner of the room. Then, he felt Vanya's shadow lean over his face. "Hello again, Guinea Pig," Vanya's voice was perfectly calm, perfectly professional, yet laced with a
Chapter 68: The Abandoned Animal Clinic
SPLASH!Raka's body slammed into a puddle of black, foul-smelling sewage. A dirty spray hit Luna's face and soaked Vanya's pants. Raka didn't struggle. He just lay face down in the shallow sewer water, his consciousness fading as his mechanical heart beat with a slow, forced rhythm.Thump... thump... thump."Raka!" Luna dropped her knife into the dirty water without hesitation, immediately kneeling and turning the young man's body over. The mute girl patted Raka's pale, mud-caked cheeks, her eyes showing a rare panic.The limping Baginda also moved closer, snorting anxiously as it sniffed Raka's soaked hair.Dr. Vanya Salsabila, on the other hand, showed no signs of panic. She just clicked her tongue in annoyance, wiping the dirty water spray from her futuristic glasses with the sleeve of her no-longer-white coat."Great," Vanya grumbled, looking at the digital watch on her wrist. "His brain's oxygen saturation is at a critical threshold. If we don't reconnect that micro-controller so
Chapter 67: Sewers and Severed Wires
The darkness inside the drainage pipe was thick and oppressive, broken only by the occasional flash of small electrical sparks reflecting off the wet concrete walls. Raka Adhitama lay on his back in ankle-deep, ice-cold sewage that stank of a mixture of rotten eggs, chlorine, and rust. Above him, from the opening he had jumped through, concrete dust and glass shards were still falling slowly in the aftermath of the rocket explosion that had destroyed the hospital lobby. However, it wasn't the pungent smell or the cold sewer water that made Raka groan in pain. It was what was happening inside his chest. Bzzzt... click... whirrr... BZZT! A small blue spark leaped from under his torn shirt, right above Vanya's surgical incision. His bio-mechanical heart no longer beat with a steady click-whirrr rhythm. The machine now sounded like a sputtering, malfunctioning generator, forcing the rotation of its hydraulic pump. "A-argh..." Raka clutched his chest with a trembling left hand. Th
Chapter 66: Gatling Gun Rain
Raka, Luna, and Vanya had just pushed the roof door shut when all hell broke loose from the sky.TRRRRTTTTTTT!A barrage from a heavy-caliber Gatling gun shredded the concrete wall of the hospital roof as if it were made of dry crackers.Thick glass windows exploded into the top-floor hallway, sending a storm of sharp fragments flying in all directions along with a choking cloud of concrete dust."RUN! DOWN! EVERYONE, GET DOWN!" Vanya shrieked in panic.Her white doctor's coat billowed as she bolted down the emergency stairs, clutching a black backpack containing her surgical equipment and research hard drives like a mother protecting her baby.Luna didn't need to be told twice. The mute girl was already two steps ahead of Raka, leaping down the stairs three at a time with the agility of a leopard, her movements silent as she dodged the falling debris.Raka followed behind, his breath ragged. His right shoulder throbbed with pain every time his shoe hit a concrete step. But what terri
Chapter 65: Uninvited Guests
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! A high-pitched alarm shrieked, shattering the silence of the St. Mary's Hospital basement. Emergency red lights along the corridor began to spin frantically, drowning the room in a terrifying, blood-red glow. Raka, who had just been trying to process the fact that he was now part machine, was jolted so hard he nearly fell off the operating table. His right shoulder, freshly stitched up by Vanya, throbbed with pain, but he ignored it. "Vanya! What's that sound?!" Raka covered his ears with his free left hand. "Did your electric fence fail again? Ninja lizards? A horde?" Vanya, who a second ago was still smiling obsessively at her creation in Raka's chest, was now frozen. Her face, which usually radiated a confident madness, suddenly turned deathly pale. Her futuristic glasses flickered rapidly, displaying a series of blazing red data streams. "No," Vanya whispere
