Lami's Evacuation Was Never Completed
Why is Lami ranked last?
Luo didn't touch the list. The scabbard of his sword, Kikoku, pressed against the hull of the submarine. Seawater dripped down his clothes and accumulated in a small patch at his feet.
Chopper reviewed the registration order of the seventeen men again.
"The first sixteen people all have medical records, but only Lami's entry says 'Application made on behalf of family member, medical records pending.'"
Who are the family members?
The report turned to the next page.
[Application Agent: Donquixote Rosinante]
[Original Applicants: Doctor Trafalgar and his wife]
Luo stared at his parents' surnames.
"Incorrect date."
During the Sengoku, the reporting time was extended.
Which place?
"When Corazon met me, the hospital had been burning for six months; there was no way he could have obtained the application that my parents had personally submitted."
"It's also possible that he found it later."
"Impossible."
Luo raised his hand, and the words on the report were moved from the ROOM to the deck.
"When my father writes the number seven, he always adds a stroke backward at the end, and my mother adds the date below the name. This application has both."
Chopper leans closer to the screen.
"Did they write it together?"
"This application existed at least before the hospital was burned down."
Luo turned to the first page and combined the issuance time and receipt time together.
The application was submitted nine days before Flevance was locked down.
Rosinante made the payment six months after the hospital was burned down.
There was a gap of more than half a year between the two registrations.
Sengoku asked, "Where did the original application go?"
The Fake Marine lay on the deck of the small boat, offering no reply.
Drake shifted his foot half an inch.
Do you still want your wrist?
"Those are the files from the North Blue Kingdom Joint Hospital; I haven't had any contact with them."
"You recognized the report just now."
"Because the recycling order we received had a name on it."
Who issued it?
"Medical Disposal Bureau"
Vegapunk accessed the old Archives and quickly found a department number that had been discontinued.
"This agency participated in the Amber Lead investigation 102 years ago. After the lockdown of Flevance, it was renamed the North Blue Epidemic Prevention Agency, and three years ago it was merged into the Science Defense Department."
The Sengoku asked, "Who is now in charge?"
"Nominally managed by the World Government's Medical Department, the actual control over operations passes through Enies Lobby."
Luo looked at the Fake Marine.
"You're from Enies Lobby?"
"I can't say."
Drake stepped on his fingers.
"Then nod."
The other party did not move.
"Shaking your head is fine too."
There was still no response.
Drake looked down at him for a moment.
"It seems so."
"How did you determine that?" Izo asked.
"If it really had nothing to do with Enies Lobby, he would have said so long ago."
Lin Qi put the initial application into the verification page.
Were the seventeen children eligible for medical evacuation before the Flevance lockdown?
[Preliminary qualification review passed]
Who rejected the application?
[Not rejected]
"Then why wasn't it implemented?"
[Inadequate transportation conditions]
Luo dragged the mining records aside.
Nine days before the lockdown, the last royal evacuation ship departed port. How many empty seats were left on board?
The page paused for a moment.
[147]
The sound of water seeping into the planks came from the side of the deck, Izo bent down and stuffed another piece of cloth in.
No one was urging the system to function.
Lin Qi continued, "Are seventeen children allowed to board the ship?"
[Can]
Why didn't they go up?
This time, it's the list of royal family members who have been evacuated.
An additional goods requirement is attached at the end of the list.
To avoid affecting the morale of the nobility due to the illness, medical evacuees are not allowed to travel on the same ship as royalty.
Luo tapped his finger on the scabbard.
Does my father know about this?
The report includes a complaint.
The Doctor Trafalgar couple submitted four protests in a row, the last one being only half a page long, the other half of which was torn out.
The remaining text stated that the hospital was willing to cover the quarantine costs themselves, only requesting that the children be allowed to board the ship.
The approval section stated that the matter would not be considered.
After reading it, Chopper pulled his hat down further.
They knew perfectly well that the disease wasn't contagious.
That's why no explanation is needed.
Luo moved the complaint to the public area.
The Fake Marine raised his face.
"Making this public won't save anyone."
"Who said I need to rely on public intervention to save myself?"
All seventeen people are dead.
Where is the evidence?
"Flevance has no survivors."
Luo raised his hand, and the transparent cube containing the heart fell in front of him.
Say it again.
The man shut his mouth.
Vegapunk checked the paper Inner Compartment of the checklist.
Below each of the seventeen names, there is a very shallow hole mark.
"These holes are from old-style medical transport cards, indicating that the application was once bound into another file."
"Can you find it?" Chopper asked.
"The original document cannot be found, but the binding holes have serial numbers."
The number belongs to the underground ward of Flevance Third Hospital.
Luo remembered that basement.
"The hospital does not have underground wards."
Are you sure?
"I grew up there, and I've been to every floor."
"It was probably added after the lockdown."
"Impossible, the Amber Lead layer is too shallow; digging deeper would cause water seepage."
Chopper pointed to the end of the number.
"This isn't a floor, it's more like a cabin number."
Izo turned around from beside the helm.
"The mobile hospital in North Blue also uses this numbering system. After the ship docks, the beds are directly transported into the cabin via underground tracks."
Luo asked, "Flevance has a hospital ship?"
"There was a ship on the old nautical chart named White Swallow, but it was scrapped sixteen years ago."
Vegapunk retrieved the record of the White Swallow's last departure from port.
The incident occurred the day after the hospital fire.
The registered cargo consisted of the remains of seventeen children Amber Lead Syndrome.
Luo's name was among them.
Sengoku looked at Luo.
You had already left Flevance by then.
"So this list of remains is fake."
"At least your name is."
"The others also need to be re-examined."
The system then verified seventeen death certificates.
The first sixteen copies all had a doctor's signature.
Only Lami's certificate was unsigned, with a supplementary explanation pasted in the lower right corner.
[The lost hospital bed will be considered as having been burned by the hospital.]
Luo took out the instruction sheet.
How could the hospital bed be lost?
"The fire is chaotic," the Fake Marine said.
You know?
"It was written in the report."
Which report?
The other person turned their face to the other side.
Drake bent down and pulled a folded order from the inside pocket of his cloak.
The paper listed three recycling targets.
Original quarantine report from Flevance.
A sample of Rosinante's ability to remain silent.
The third item was covered up with ink, but the last two characters were still visible.
Hospital bed.
Luo squatted down and placed the order in front of the Fake Marine.
Which hospital bed are you looking for?
"I have no idea."
"Serial number."
"No number."
"Then how do you confirm the target?"
The other party still refused to answer.
Izo shouted from afar, "The submarine is moving!"
The enemy boat, now without its gun barrel, began to sink, releasing large amounts of bubbles from its hull, as if releasing something.
Drake dragged up the Fake Marine.
"Is it a self-sinking device?"
"They're going to destroy the ship's hold."
Luo's ROOM immediately covered the enemy ship.
The hatch separated from the hull.
A dozen or so people disguised as naval personnel rushed out of the water, and then a sealed Medical Kit was pushed out by the water pressure.
The box was only the size of a regular medicine cabinet, with the old White Swallow nameplate hanging on the outside.
Chopper saw the frost in the observation window and immediately shouted, "Don't open it! It's being stored at a low temperature inside!"
Luo transferred the Medical Kit to the deck of the Polar Tang.
There was no key to the locker.
There was a label from sixteen years ago pasted on the door.
[Trafalgar Lami]
[Death Status: Not Confirmed]
