Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Guest
The circle-shaped purple barrier that enveloped the entire hospital inpatient building began to slowly shrink towards the center of the Lin Su ward. The tapering purple barrier touches and intersects with the building, until it passes through.
The gray wall in the purple night, when intersecting with the shrinking purple barrier, two scenes of the same building wall overlapped each other in the same place, and after a short period of distortion, the purple barrier passed, and the space behind it continued to emerge in the real environment, and the area of the white wall became larger as the purple barrier shrank.
Not only the walls of the inpatient department, but all the facilities in the inpatient department are like this, and after the purple barrier is constantly narrowed through, the original spacious and bright interior environment once again comes into view.
The most amazing thing is the devastation, the third floor of the inpatient building, which is almost a ruin of the battlefield.
The purple barrier that had been shrouded around the perimeter continued to shrink towards Ward 49, and after being crossed by the intersection of purple, the originally chaotic floor became a quiet and warm inpatient ward.
The damaged and collapsed walls were restored to their original state, and the white walls appeared simple and bright. The floor embedded in the ravines and cracks is restored to its original state, smooth and smooth, with a little smell of disinfectant water, which makes people feel at ease. All the sick beds, patients, and family members came back safe and sound, and everything was restored to the same place, and they all slept soundly in this quiet night.
The real and the unreal are intertwined, like a dream, like a dream, like a real and a virtual. The entire inpatient building was like a nightmare, and now it is breaking free from the dream and gradually waking up, from the horror to the calm of reality.
The purple barrier shrank to ward 49, and the purple light passed through the rubble, through the crowd, and finally condensed into a small purple dot at the bedside table of Lin Su's original hospital bed, and then drifted away with the wind.
The entire process of removing the barrier took less than a minute, but the scene that had undergone changes and intertwined the virtual and the real was as rich as a lifetime.
The ground of the ward, which was originally a mess by Lin Su, has been cleaned up, the door panel has also been repaired, and the smashed beds and furniture have also been replaced, and they have been re-placed in their original positions, and 2 cans of medical oxygen cylinders have been placed in the corner of the wall where the original Mahayana hair stiff fell.
I don't know if it was because the secret bureau was short of funds or the processing team was too slammed on the door, the door panel was pressed back into the door frame, but the door panel was still seriously damaged. The beds and furniture were in tatters, pitted, and blackened with holes and fire! The most exaggerated thing was that the two oxygen cylinders were actually broken, as if they had been destroyed by an explosion from the inside out, and the iron flowers were blooming.
Lin Su was shocked when he saw this transformation and transformation of shadows, and he was shocked to see the changes around him, and his mouth grew in surprise. Everyone looked at him as demented, looking curious and surprised, and they were even more sure that this was an ordinary civilian youth.
The old woman couldn't see with her eyes, she couldn't see the shocking changes in the environment, she only felt that the surface continued to move slightly, and her breath froze for a while, and after a while, it returned to normal. I didn't feel much emotion, this movement was not as good as the living corpse, and I continued what I had just said.
"I am a feng shui array master, and I am dealing with feng shui luck, so naturally I can't avoid those strange and unknown things in this world. Don't shy away from me at all. β
"But... Old... As the black-clad deputy is about to speak, Fluttershy shakes her hand and motions not to interrupt her.
"You may think that erasing some memories is harmless to the average person. Indeed, there are some things that are better to know than not to know, and why bother if you can't solve your troubles?"
"But I'm different, I've seen countless things in my life, and the things you claim to be mysterious are common to me. I'm over 100 years old, how many days do I have to live? Every day is very important to me now, whether it is yesterday or today, it is unique to me, there are memories that I will protect for the rest of my life, and I don't want to be dug up by you, so that there are two blank pages in my last life. β
"People live in memory, because everyone has their own unique memory, so there are thousands of people. I don't have my parents, my lover, my friends, my children, my exclusive memory, so am I still me?
"I am a believer in Buddhism, and I ask the Buddha to talk about cause and effect. There is a cause to have an effect, and there is an effect to plant a cause. Forgetting everything is certainly a relief, but the cause and effect have not been eliminated, and I naturally do not accept this kind of self-deception. β
"Besides, if you don't like it, you can actually get out of danger because of me, and it's just a matter of not repaying it, and now you want us to clear your memories to make up for your mistakes and risks, which kind of trick is reasonable?"
After Fluttershy finished with some sadness, she ignored anyone and sat cross-legged on the ground, silent.
There was silence in the room, and the air was suddenly quiet.
In fact, everyone is really ashamed in their hearts, otherwise what would they enlighten the old lady? People are right, you relied on me to kill the zombies, and now you want to send an old man of my age abroad, or erase my memory, and you will take advantage of the benefits, and if I help you, you will end up with amnesia or going abroad? Besides, the old lady has never seen anything in the wind and waves in her life, what is so strange about the mountain spirit and water monster?
"Old lady, this is a rule, or I'll let our aftermath specialist explain itγγγγγγ The black-clothed deputy team was a little embarrassed, but where the responsibility lies, he still said stubbornly.
"Vice, wait a minute. Britney! I need to contact the director, use the 2040 special permission, password: 971547, please help me connect!" Cheng Yuzhi's cold temperament remained unchanged, and he said coldly as he pressed the micro communicator, but when he heard Shi Xiaodie's words in his heart, he was touched somewhere.
"Okay, Sister Xue. Please wait, the permission password has been verified!" Meng Xiaotian replied.
It didn't take long for a rather dignified middle-aged man's voice to sound in Cheng Yuzhi's ears.
"Hmmm... Cheng Nizi, what's the matter? The task is accomplished, and how is the situation?" the majestic middle-aged voice seemed to have just woken up, and asked a little confused.
"Report to the director, the task has been completed, the target has been ambushed, and the aftermath is being dealt with," Cheng Yuzhi replied respectfully.
"Well, it's good, you've always done things safely, and you're so capable at a young age, not bad!" the middle-aged voice seemed to be a little confused, and some muttered back.
"A subordinate has a request from you. Cheng Yuzhi said solemnly.
"Oh, hehe, that's funny, you little girl asks for people, well, let's hear it. The middle-aged voice seemed to be a little interested and teased.
Cheng Yuzhi began to state: "The goal of this mission is a Mahayana stiffness, the initial strategy of the headquarters is wrong, the situation is very unfavorable and causes the team to be reduced... β
"Mahayana hair stiff!! damn it, that bald head won't wake me up! Damn, what's going on now?" When the middle-aged man heard the "Mahayana stiffness" as if he was being poured on his head by a basin of ice water, he instantly sobered up, and couldn't help interrupting Cheng Yuzhi's statement, and asked a little angrily.
"Report to the director, the danger has been lifted, the Mahayana hair stiff has been ambushed, the on-site barrier has been removed, and the body has been locked in the water mirror silver crystal coffin by the technical team for further analysis. Cheng Yuzhi made a concise report on the matter of the Mahayana stiffness that the director was concerned about.
"Oh! it's good to be lifted, it's good to be lifted!" The director seemed to be a little scared, and he chattered.
It didn't take long for the director to seem to think of something and ask, "Well... Xiao Nizi, then you contact me, what kind of application do you ask? Those team members who died in the war are martyrs, you can rest assured, the follow-up comfort and resettlement will not be neglected. β
"I believe in the bureau's proper arrangements for the heroes who died in battle, but what I said is not the matter. "The way of Cheng Yu.
"Oh, what's that?" the director wondered.
Cheng Yuzhi stated: "When the battle situation is unfavorable, there is an old lady in the formation who claims to be a feng shui formation master, providing suggestions for changing the formation, and providing important assistance in the subsequent layout of the new formation, the operation of the formation, and the capture of targets. It can be said that this old lady contributed a lot to the completion of this combat mission. β
"Feng Shui Array Division, there are actually Feng Shui Formation Divisions among the people?" the director asked with interest.
"Yes, the old lady, surnamed Teacher, named Fluttershy. Cheng Yuzhi still did not participate in a trace of subjective emotion, and reported steadily.
"Surname? Hmmm... Teacher's family... It's really an old name," the director muttered.
"Now Mrs. Shi does not accept the resettlement plan for civilian A or B. In view of the old lady's assistance and contribution in the task, and the old lady is half an insider, the risk of exposure and leakage is low, plus the old lady is old and weak, so it is not advisable to forget the soul. So I applied for no placement for the old lady, only a verbal agreement or a non-disclosure agreement. Cheng Yuzhi was justified and stated his application to his superiors.
When the director heard that he was pleading for the civilian resettlement process, he was immediately a little embarrassed, thought for a while, and said solemnly: "Xiao Nizi, you should know the regulations of our bureau, but if the civilian witnesses or is involved in the task, the civilian handling and resettlement must be carried out afterwards to avoid unnecessary social rumors and panic." There's nothing half an insider saying here, please understand!"
Cheng Yuzhi was silent, she was cold and frosty on the surface, and her momentum was overwhelming, but there was still a fiery and soft place in her heart. Shi Xiaodie's sentence "People live in memory, because I don't have my exclusive memory, then am I still me?" and how is erasing memory different from killing someone in some ways?" touched her memory.
She doesn't want Fluttershy to lose the memories that she thinks are important to her. Maybe in this long life, two days and 48 hours may be nothing, not even one ten-thousandth, just a moment.
But the memories that are truly remembered, those memories that take a lifetime to remember or long, and a lifetime to pursue or cherish, are often only a moment of emotion or understanding.
The old lady wants to guard her precious memory, to guard the unique memory that she will protect for the rest of her life. Cheng Yuzhi empathizes and hopes to help this old woman. This is not only because Shi Xiaodie does have a life-saving grace for her, but also because of a woman's intuition, she feels that this old woman is very similar to herself, and she is close to her for no reason, and now she only hopes to help her and protect the old lady's unwillingness to give up.
"After all, the old lady is over 100 years old, and no matter how AB plans are, it may cause irreversible damage to the elderly," Cheng Yuzhi continued.
"The confidentiality agreement is binding on the guest secretary, and civilians do not belong to this category! Okay, Xiao Nizi, no matter what you want, the civilians involved in the task must deal with the placement, and this case cannot be broken!" the director replied solemnly.
"Keqing?" Cheng Yuzhi squinted at the old lady and muttered thoughtfully.
