Incredible! A Kaizorg’s Healing!

Keisuke pulled himself along the walls of buildings. His hand clutched his stomach, containing the injury as much as possible. He’d been shot protecting a young woman from a mugging. The man, of course, didn’t seem to like the interference and shot him before running off. The bullet, his brain helpfully informed him every so often, was lodged between two sensitive systems.
Remove foreign object. Systems will be compromised in three hours.
He knew that. Of course he did. If he didn’t get the bullet out soon he’d be in worse shape. He would need actual repair versus letting his body do the healing for him if that happened.
It was lucky his brain wasn’t telling him the systems were already compromised. He didn’t know or trusted anyone in the city to work on his cybernetics. They didn’t know what he was supposed to be capable of doing. The kaizorg probably would need to find someone in the event he really needed aid in fixing himself.
Another flare of pain encompassed his entire body. He staggered away from the wall, clutching his abdomen. He accidentally ran into a teenager. Despite the fact everything hurt, he did his best to bow, tightening his jaw to hold back any sound that he was in pain. “Forgive my clumsiness,” he said, once he righted himself. “I’m...not at my best, it seems.”
Oh right, he was still bleeding. It was amazing he was still standing, really, from all the blood loss. At least he didn’t have any wiring or anything exposed, right?
