The Transfer Station Was Waiting to Receive Law
Don't respond to that line of text.
Drake reached out to block the screen; the Polar Tang was still sinking, its hull already scraping the edge of the trench, and continuous muffled thuds came from its hull.
Luo raised the Kikoku and pushed his hand away.
It called my name.
That's why I can't respond.
"The Transfer Station is already open; pretending not to see it won't shut it off by itself."
Sengoku asked over the communicator, "Luo, confirm the received content first, don't select it directly."
Two more lines of text appeared on the Throne Page.
[Original recipient missing]
[The current recipient is of blood relation]
Chopper stood up from his chair.
"Blood ties cannot be used to deflect responsibility for a patient; this rule has already been changed."
Vegapunk pulled out the old terms and conditions of the Return Voyage Project, but as soon as he opened the first page, the page automatically jumped to the last page.
[If the patient's handover is not completed for an extended period, the nearest surviving relative shall continue to assume the observation obligation.]
Luo asked, "What does the duty of observation include?"
[Confirmed end of course of illness]
"When will it be over?"
[Die]
Bepo stood beside the Medical Kit, holding a thermal blanket. Upon hearing this word, his claws slowly tightened, and the corner of the blanket was crumpled into a ball.
"Captain, it wants you to confirm that Lami is dead."
She's not dead yet.
"Why is the Transfer Station only contacting you now?"
Luo looked at the coordinates of Minion Island.
"Because they couldn't find me before."
Drake dragged the Fake Marine in front of the screen, water still dripping from his face into his collar. After seeing the page clearly, he took a half-step back on his toes.
Drake pressed down on his shoulder.
"You're familiar with this process."
"I've only heard people mention the old terms of the Return Voyage Project."
What will happen after receiving it?
Once the family confirms the patient's identity and signs the termination of treatment document, the Transfer Station will be closed.
Luo asked, "Where is the patient?"
The other party remained silent.
Drake bent his arm back.
"I'm asking your patient."
"It will be removed from the watch list."
Where should the person be sent?
"Removal means processing; there is no forwarding."
Bepo's ears were pressed against the back of his head.
Chopper grabbed the handover card from the Medical Kit.
"She's still showing signs of life, are you still treating her?"
The project concluded that she died sixteen years ago, and what remains now is merely an observational sample.
Luo raised his hand and opened the ROOM. All the buttons on the Fake Marine's chest fell onto the deck, and a metal piece hidden deep inside the inner pocket flew out.
The front of the metal plate is engraved with "Bed Seventeen," while the back contains only one instruction.
[After the relatives arrive at the station, the samples will be collected first, and then the claiming process will be completed.]
Sengoku said, "The order is wrong."
What's wrong?
"Normal claims require identity verification first, but here we require retrieval first."
Luo turned the metal plate towards the Fake Marine.
"Recycle what?"
"I have no idea."
"You had the control panel with you, but you didn't know?"
"Our mission is simply to deliver observation bed number seventeen to Minion Island and then lead you there."
"Who gave you permission to lead me here?"
"A command automatically issued by the Transfer Station."
"Say it completely."
The man swallowed.
"Once the recipient enters the island's perimeter, the observation bed will stop supplying power, and the Transfer Station will require you to complete confirmation within six minutes."
Chopper immediately went to check the tubing behind the Medical Kit.
"She couldn't last six minutes after the power supply stopped."
So he will definitely sign.
After Drake finished speaking, he released the man's arm.
The Fake Marine, clinging to the ship's sidewall, was about to back away when Luo had already moved the metal plate into his mouth.
"Bite down."
"What you up to?"
"Since you're familiar with the process, come with me."
The other person spat the metal piece onto the ground.
"It's no use me going to the island; the system only wants relatives."
"You've prepared for sixteen years; you must have left more than one way out."
There is no other way.
Luo looked up at Drake.
Drake understood and reached down to take the communicator from the Fake Marine's waist.
There were no call records in the communicator, only a preset command.
[If Trafalgar Law refuses to claim the body, release the complete pathological images of his sister]
[After being made public, it was defined as a source of transmission for Amber Lead Syndrome]
Chopper pressed down on the screen.
"Amber Lead Syndrome is not contagious!"
"They know."
Luo copied that instruction to the Throne public page.
"Lin Qi, begin your thesis."
Lin Qi did not release it immediately.
What do you want to ask?
"Ask if Amber Lead Syndrome in Flevance is contagious."
The answer to this question has already been given.
"The publicly available answers are not enough."
Luo placed seventeen child evacuation applications at the bottom of the title page.
"My question is, when did the World Government realize it wasn't contagious?"
The page paused for a few seconds, then displayed four time options.
[Flevance after lockdown]
[After the first batch of patients died]
[Before the start of Amber Lead]
[Not yet confirmed]
After reviewing the options, Chopper looked up and asked, "Did they know this before the mining even started?"
Vegapunk accessed investigation files from 102 years ago.
"The earliest animal studies have shown that Amber Lead toxicity accumulates in the body and can be passed on to the next generation; contact with infected individuals will not lead to infection."
The Sengoku turned to the page for the trial issuance.
"The World Government participated in the investigation."
Who are the participants?
"Copies were also received by the Medical Department, the scientific research team at the time, and the Flevance royal family."
Luo looked at the receipt stamp on the copy.
The seal is intact.
The takeover date was three months before Flevance began large-scale mining.
Lin Qi published the title page.
Anyone in the world can answer that.
The answer came almost without waiting.
Four Seats simultaneously selected the third option.
[Correct answer]
[The World Government knew that the substance was lethal but not infectious before the mining of the Amber Lead.]
The old labels on the Medical Kit are starting to peel off.
The text that was originally labeled "Infectious Disease Observation Samples" has now been revealed, with the words underneath being covered up.
[Victims of long-term poisoning]
Chopper tore off the tag and stuffed it into his medicine bag.
I'll keep this one.
Luo asked, "What are we going to do by staying?"
"Show her when she wakes up."
"She doesn't need to see this kind of thing."
"Then let's take it to the doctor."
Chopper fastened the medicine packet.
"From now on, if anyone dares to say she's contagious, I'll shove the report on their desk."
The Polar Tang turned close to the trench, and the underwater outline of Minion Island appeared on the exploration map.
Beneath the old mining area is a man-made tunnel with an entrance just wide enough for a submarine to pass through.
Izo looked at the depth gauge.
The Transfer Station at the bottom of the island, not on the island itself.
Drake asked, "Can we go in?"
"Yes, but there's nowhere to turn around once you're inside."
Luo placed the Kikoku beside his legs.
No need to turn your head.
The Sengoku interrupted him.
"Wait for naval support."
"Wait for them to come and sign for me?"
That's not what I meant.
"Then don't stop them."
Sengoku glanced at him for a moment and then sent a naval passcode to the Polar Tang.
"This is the identification code for the Minion Island Old Blockade Line; it can only be used once."
Luo didn't thank him; he simply handed the identification code to Bepo.
As the submarine entered the tunnel, the Medical Kit's power supply indicator jumped from four hours to three hours and fifty-nine minutes.
The reason for the missing minute was not recorded.
Chopper rechecked the wiring.
"It has started to drain the power supply."
The Fake Marine looked toward the approaching gates of the Transfer Station.
"You'll be locked up if you go in."
Who built the door?
"Return Voyage Project."
Who controls it?
"Throne."
Luo placed his hand on the control panel.
"Then let it open."
The Transfer Station received the naval identification code, and the iron gates on both sides retracted inwards.
One by one, the lights behind the door turned on.
There were sixteen empty hospital beds at the very back, and each bed had a set of children's clothes on it.
There were no clothes on the seventeenth bed.
There was only a spotted hat on the pillow.
When Luo saw the hat, another notification popped up on the screen.
[Please return Bed Seventeen, Trafalgar Law]
