My Doomsday Farming Truck - Chapter 50
Both of them ran along with the buildings, they had worn black clothes for better camouflaging their actions. They didn’t need any luggage as Arther had everything stored inside the MCV.
Soon they reached the western region of the city, here the buildings were a bit more luxurious with better decoration. They didn’t stop there and kept running for few more minutes. After a long and tiring run, they reached the hospital where according to Nanny’s mother her dad was. Both of them stopped a little farther away from the hospital on the other side of the road as the security there was very strict.
After observing the situation for some time Arther turned to Nanny, she was already sitting on the ground huffing greedily for air. Though Arther was also feeling short of breath he didn’t feel it so intense, this surprised him but he didn’t have time to dwell upon it for now. He waited for Nanny to turn back to normal, “Are you ok?”
“Hmm, I am fine brother Arther.”, she looked at him with a determined expression.
“OK, so this is our plan…., hope you understood.”, after explaining to her the plan both of them sneaked past the road and went to the nearby shop.
It was a small three-story grocery store, Arther easily climbed up. On the roof of the store, Arther took out a rope and threw it down for Nanny to climb up. All these actions were very swift and didn’t take much time. Seeing all this Nanny was already sweating profusely, she had the fear of heights, but she didn’t want to make Arther look down upon her hence she took the rope and tried to climb up slowly, due to her weak hands and legs it took her a long time to climb up until Arther had to pull her up for the last few meters. When she reached the roof her face was beet red with shame, her legs had gone soft and she was not able to even stand up. Arther didn’t seem to notice all this, he has observed the surroundings to make sure they were not caught.
In the beginning, he wanted to take Nanny with him but now he had to change the plans since she was becoming a burden for now. He has decided to hide her here till he completes his work inside. He was also gonna leave a walkie-talkie if mobiles didn’t work. She can also keep a watch from outside and notify him of any anomalies.
With this, he explained everything to her and climbed down the rope. Nanny looked at his back as he went further away, she was feeling unwilling to stay there but she knew how very well that she was of no use for him for now. Instead of being a drag bottle, it was better to hide here well and wait for him. She took out the binoculars left behind by Arther to keep an eye on the patrolling guards and any other movements in the surrounding.
At a certain area of the wall a bit farther away from the gates, a patrol guard in dark blue security uniform walked past with a cigarette lit in his hands. Soon after he walked past, behind him a rope with an anchor hook tied at one end flew past the wall on the other side from a roadside tree. The guard looked behind and continued with his patrolling after not finding anything. On a tree branch, Arther was waiting for him to leave, he didn’t even dare to breathe in the fear of getting caught.
After the guard left and Nanny confirmed that there was no one nearby he jumped off the tree and used the rope to climb up the wall, compared to before it was a bit more tiring to climb a straight wall. After passing by the wall there was a parking area with a green path along the road leading to the main entrance of the hospital and the main gate. He hid in the green patch as he slowly sneaked past few security guards to the backside of the building.
He looked up at the building while sneaking past, this was the biggest hospital in the city F, it had all the advanced medical equipment required, and many skilled doctors at work. But what made him confused was why does this hospital has so tight security, and according to what he knew the base being built by the government was also a bit farther away from here in the mountains.
Though it was intriguing to find out about this he didn’t have the free time to do so, he had to find Nanny’s parents in such a big hospital. It had one main building and twenty departmental buildings for various types of patients and diseases creating a huge building complex. As he went a bit deeper into the complex the security was more strict, compared to the outside the patrol here were more disciplined and well trained.
“Hey Nanny, do you have any idea of where your parents might be, I can’t just check out every department.”
“Umm…… I don’t exactly know about it, but I had heard mom talking on mobile about dad getting a fractured bone in his leg.”
“Hmm, ok, so I will go check out the orthopedic department, they must be there.”
Arther sneaked into the building with the orthopedic board, it was a 7-floor building with the lower two floors being reception, waiting area, and operating room.
The reception was empty, so was the waiting area. The lift of the building was also not working. This increased his suspicions even more. The second floor was also empty, seeing this Arther was already on high alert. He turned to the staircase for the third floor, the lights on the staircase were turned off and the staircase was completely dark. While there were some noises coming from the third floor.
Arther didn’t continue climbing further up. He exited the building and went to the backside, the floors above the third floor had rooms for patients, so he had to check on these rooms to find Nanny’s parents.
Behind the building, every room had a window, it was a small sliding door window. But it will be very risky and difficult to climb up the building. He observed the building for some time before finding a ventilation duct and some water pipes from where he can climb up. The top two floors were mostly used for VIP patients so he only had to check on three floors.
