Accidentally provoked the whole world

Chapter 24 I'm Poisoned
"Sorry, Eve, I... I didn't know you were home."

John was a little unable to face Eve, the woman in his predecessor made him at a loss.

If it is not necessary, John does not want to search for the memory of his previous life, he would rather live according to his own wishes, but sometimes he really has to face the established facts caused by his previous life.

"Hey, Chefer, are you going to walk away again?" Eve looked at him.

The old bastard had been away for three years, and there was no news for three years, and he didn't know where he went, until he was about to forget him, and suddenly appeared in front of him again.

John: "Actually, I came back to give you this house."

The original intention was that he wanted to come back to see the doctor and take a look at the house at the same time, so as to sell the house.

There are too many four properties, and it would be a waste to keep them if you don't like them, but the predecessor did something wrong, used Eve as a girlfriend as a cover, and used her, so at least some compensation should be given.

He can't make a fortune selling a house, and besides, he still has 200 million dollars that he snatched from Vigo, and in less than ten days, he can get a retirement check of more than 820 million dollars from Damocles, and send it out There really isn’t much to a property.

Eve: "Really?"

She has no real estate rights, but she has been unable to contact John since he left three years ago, so she took advantage of the situation to live.

Los Angeles is a big city, and owning a house is a big help to life. Eve can't afford the expensive rent with her meager income from working in a nightclub.

John: "Yeah."

Eve: "Oh baby, I love you to death."

She was overjoyed, she was satisfied to have such a big house in Los Angeles, and all the complaints about John disappeared.

……

After accompanying Eve to complete the transfer documents, John had a couple's meal with her in Chinatown.

Dining room corner.

"Hey, Ricky, do you think that old man is the one the boss asked us to find?"

Ricky touched his bald head, "Where is it?"

"The one by the window, eating with the woman."

Ricky took out the photo, which was the frontal portrait of John.

Ricky: "Oh, it's really him, Chevrolet. Hector, you have really good eyes."

Hector: "Hehehehe."

Ricky: "Brother, you stare at him, I'll call the boss, we're going to get rich this time!"

……

After the couple's meal, John drove Eve home.

Eve: "Hey, honey, I will work tonight and have a day off tomorrow. You must come tomorrow and I will cook for you."

John: "Okay, I will."

Eve scented him for a while, then happily went home and closed the door.

John shook his head.

He took out his phone and dialed a number from memory.

"Hello, I'm Dr. Miles' assistant. How can I help you?" A female voice came from the phone.

John: "I'm John Wick, I have something important to see him."

According to memory, Dr. Miles is a very skilled private doctor who specializes in some shady operations. He is an old friend of his predecessor for more than [-] years.

After John announced his name, it didn't take long before a familiar voice sounded from the other side.

"Hey, John, my old friend, what's the matter?"

John: "I'm in trouble. I'm in very bad health. I hope you can take a look at it for me."

It's not impossible to go to a big hospital for an examination, but this thing is very unscientific. Once it is exposed, it will not be worth it if it is investigated by Laomei.

Miles: "Okay, you come to my clinic, do you remember the address? You haven't been to Los Angeles for three years."

John: "I'll be there in 15 minutes."

……

15 minutes later.

John came to Miles' clinic and was given a comprehensive examination.

Miles: "John, you're not feeling well. Can you tell me why you have these symptoms?"

John was ashamed in his heart, could he say that he swallowed something that shouldn't be swallowed in order to gain great strength?
"I... I ate a... very bad thing, and then it was like this."

That's all John could say.

The truth cannot be told to Dr. Miles at all. This is not a matter of trust, but to protect old friends. Knowing things that should not be known is not good.

Miles: "You ate something? Is that so?"

"Yeah," John nodded, "What happened to my body?"

Miles: "Your body is attacked by unknown chemicals, which stimulate your glands and make the body produce adrenaline constantly, and the result is ... you will become manic, and even intermittent shock. "

John nodded his head. He was right. In the past few days, besides beating a few people violently, he also fainted three times.

John: "So what's wrong with me?"

Miles: "You're poisoned."

"Poisoned?"

Damn!

The mutated gland was obviously poisonous, and the system also marked it as edible. I was really fooled.

Am I going to be the first host in history to be killed by the system?
John: "Is there any treatment?"

Miles shook his head.

How can you prescribe the right medicine even if you don't know what chemical substance is causing the trouble?

John was speechless.

Since even Miles can't do anything, the big hospital will not have a better way.

Conventional treatment has failed.

"However, there is another way that may be able to cure it." Miles added.

John: "What method?"

Miles: "Fight fire with fire!"

"Fight poison with poison?!"

"Yes!" Miles nodded, "I already understand the mechanism of your poisoning. The toxin mainly acts on your glands, promoting the glands to secrete adrenaline. We only need to find another toxin to inhibit the secretion of the glands. When the two toxins neutralize, your symptoms will be relieved."

John: "What's the toxin that could save my life? Can you get it?"

Miles: "It's called the 'Oriental Cocktail'. The toxicology is to inhibit the production of ephedrine, reduce the secretion of adrenaline, make people's blood vessels 'rust', and amplify the time of death. It is very painful. You can try this thing in Look for it on the black market, but its price is quite high, and you have to prepare sufficient funds. Also, fighting poison with poison is only a theoretically feasible solution, and it is not necessarily safe, so it is not a last resort, I do not recommend you to do this .”

John: "Thank you."

Miles has already done him a great favor, and there is no need to worry about safety at all.

[Devil's Embrace] (dropped by One Eye) gives you unparalleled recovery ability, increasing your [Vitality] attribute by [-]%, greatly improving your ability to resist fatal attacks.

With such a powerful characteristic body protection, it will not die.

This is the greatest benefit obtained from eating mutant glands, but of course the price is equally harsh.

John intends to take some time tomorrow to inquire on the black market to find out what this 'Oriental Cocktail' is.
