Chapter 009: Visitor?
The first head-on contact with the Shadow King ended with Raymond almost suffering a dark loss.
However, it can be regarded as a safe pass, and the Shadow King should not appear again in a short period of time.
Thinking about it, I also know that if the Shadow King can really forcibly take over David's body anytime and anywhere, he won't have to go so hard to lurk for thirty years, and he will have to constantly influence David secretly.
Obviously, he very much didn't want David to find out about his existence.
Because once David is wary of him, no matter what he does next, he is very likely to be alerted by David, and it will be more and more difficult for him to break through David's psychological defense.
Moreover, if he competes for the body head-on, he should not be able to compete with David at all.
After all, David is a fifth-level mutant, and even if his potential is still untapped, he can't be taken away by someone casually.
If it weren't for that, he would have been dormant for thirty years when he was full.
Under these premises, it is obvious that it is impossible for the Shadow King to appear frequently, and Raymond is not worried about this at all.
In addition, this contact was not without his gains.
In addition to being woken up by the Shadow King's blow and completely putting aside his senseless superiority, he also gained 50 exploration points?
Even if 10 points are used, there are still 40 points left, which is a bonus.
The only problem is that his plan to send David away is obviously impossible to succeed, and with the old dog of the Shadow King staring at him, it is impossible for David to pass the so-called rehabilitation test.
The resident doctors, including Dr. Beth, have long been hacked by the Shadow King, and it is impossible for them to magnify Wei Wei no matter what.
"Do you really want to come out of the Fly Over the Asylum?" Raymond rubbed his forehead, a little headache.
A David who may get sick at any time has already made him not want to stay in the hospital anymore, and now there is an extra actor who wants to do things, which makes him feel a strong sense of unease.
It's like sleeping with a grenade next to your pillow, and even if you know that the grenade won't explode easily, you still can't help but be scared.
Forcibly leaving the hospital by force is certainly the best policy, but it doesn't seem like a good choice to stay here either.
"If there's really no way, that's the only way to do it......" Raymond thought to himself.
He decided to give himself a few more days to think about whether there was a better solution, and if he still couldn't think of it, he would have to sneak away.
It's better to be labelled as a fugitive mentally ill than to keep circling around barrels of explosives.
*********
Raymond, who had made up his mind, racked his brains all morning thinking about whether there was a way to get the best of both worlds, but unfortunately, there was no flash of inspiration.
David seemed to have really forgotten about the morning and never saw anyone.
It wasn't until lunchtime that Raymond ran into him in the cafeteria.
But there was no mention of the test at all, and Raymond also tactfully probed it, and found that David really didn't remember what happened in the cafeteria in the morning.
Raymond didn't say anything more.
Even if he really wanted to help David, there was nothing he could do now.
If he is desperate to tell David directly about the Shadow King now, although it can bring some trouble to the Shadow King, it is hard to guarantee that it will not end up with the Shadow King's memory of 'correcting' this time again.
When the time comes, he will become a thorn in the side of the Shadow King.
Being targeted by such a fourth-level mutant who even Professor X can't easily kill is absolutely fatal to Raymond now, and he hasn't thought about it yet.
So I can only play dumb for the time being.
Anyway, according to the original trajectory line, the Shadow King couldn't really do anything to David.
With the intervention of the upcoming mutant organization 'Summer Island', the exposure of the Shadow King is only a matter of time, and there is no need for Raymond to intervene.
As for the secret loss that he almost suffered under the hands of the Shadow King in the morning, Raymond believes that he will have a chance to find this field sooner or later, sooner or later, there is no need to rush.
After lunch, Raymond had planned to go back to his room for a nap.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the cafeteria, I was stopped by a little nurse.
"Dr. Raymond, there are friends of yours out there who want to visit you, would you like to see them?" The attitude of the little nurse is very polite, which is completely different from that of ordinary patients.
This is also an inevitable thing.
Because of Raymond's achievements in psychology, several of the hospital's resident physicians respected him, especially Dr. Beth, and almost everyone knew that Raymond had been her idol.
Even the resident physicians have a lot of respect for Raymond, so it's no surprise that the nurses have this attitude.
After all, even if he was the original owner of the previous body, he was not a 'madman' in the real sense of the word in the eyes of ordinary people, and he was quite normal when he did not become a sub-personality.
"My friend?" Hearing this, Raymond pointed to his nose in some surprise.
"Yes, it's a lady, she didn't say her name, but she asked me to tell you that if you want to live in a different place, she might be able to help." The little nurse told the truth.
"Oh?"
Raymond was a little surprised by this answer.
In his mind, it is not surprising that a friend of the original owner of the body wants to come and visit, and from the messy memory of the original owner of the body, he also 'sees' that the relatives and friends of the original owner of the body have come to visit.
It's just that the words conveyed by the little nurse are obviously a little weird.
What does it mean that if you want to live in a different place, you can help?
Isn't that just another way of saying 'I can help you get out of the hospital'?
Also, what kind of friend would come in without telling his name, but relaying such a strange passage?
This is by no means Raimon's heart, but the fact that this thing itself is very abnormal.
He was at least seventy percent sure that the person outside who wanted to visit him might not be a friend of the original owner of the body at all.
This thing...... Definitely weird!
However, after a little thought, he was going to meet this so-called 'friend'.
No matter what the purpose of this person is, and whether she can really help herself leave this hospital in the open, there is nothing wrong with seeing it.
Even if you're a liar, you won't lose a piece of meat when you see it, right?
Thinking of this, Raymond smiled slightly: "No problem, you can take me over." ”
"Okay, please come with me." The little nurse didn't think much of it and showed Raymond the way in front.
After a while, the two of them came to a visitation room.
In North America, the visiting room of a psychiatric hospital is actually somewhat similar to the visiting room of a prison, with a special small room with a camera and a staff member in charge of surveillance.
Of course, hospitals are not prisons after all, they are not so strict.
Therefore, the two sides can communicate directly face-to-face, without talking through a layer of glass, and the staff generally does not deliberately listen to the content of the exchange.
Most of the time, there is some privacy for patients and family members.
The main purpose of their surveillance is, first, that they are afraid that the patient will suddenly fall ill and hurt the family members who come to visit, and second, they are afraid that the visiting family members will not know the severity of the matter and give the patients something that does not conform to the regulations.
In general psychiatric hospitals, everything from tableware to furniture is specially customized, for fear that patients will harm others and themselves when they are sick.
Therefore, they will try to eliminate any foreign dangerous goods.
