Chapter 39: Robot legs expert.
Hades felt like a participant in a gaming show that had seconds to answer a question before the buzzer or bell went off and he lost the opportunity to win a prize. Many times, he had also pressured others like this when closing business deals.
Sunshine raised her hand, and he knew that she was going to send him or both of them out of her special space.
"Wait." He said quickly.
She arched her eyebrows.
He sighed. "I will do it. My God woman, you are even more ruthless than I am when it comes to closing deals. I would have preferred to get a little more time to discuss the surgery...err...repair of my leg.
Have you done this before? Where did you find the robot parts? How safe...." He felt a pinch in his neck and winced.
Sunshine had just injected him with anesthetic. It worked so fast because it sent him to sleep within five seconds. She dragged him to the table and first went through a simulation of the repair.
It was not different from what she had done with the robot dog leg. With the exception of the bleeding and the fact that this was a human leg. She picked up the scalpel and sliced it open.
The sight of blood or operation on a human body was not new to her. In the apocalypse, one needed multiple skills to survive. They were always getting injured, so it became common for everyone to pick up some knowledge on human anatomy and simple surgeries.
The apocalypse had given rise to a hefty number of butchers [surgeons without skills whose shoddy operations led to death or infections seventy percent of the time].
It was close to 2 A.M when she finally finished and brought him out of the space. He was still unconscious, so she covered him and also went to sleep.
