"Drip-drip-drip-"

The ECG machine regularly records the rhythm of each heartbeat and prints the shape of the QRS wave on the drawing.

The potion and nutrient solution were passed through the infusion needle through the infusion tube of various thicknesses into the little girl's body, her small body was lying on the white bed, and in order to prevent the pleural effusion from obstructing breathing, her bed was adjusted to a specific angle, so that she looked like she was leaning against the bed rather than lying on the bed. Her body is inserted with arteriosus catheters, intravenous infusion tubes, thoracic catheters, urinary catheters and many other tubes, brain, but also shaved off all the hair, in order to install the smart chip in the brain tissue, she underwent surgery to remove a piece of the skull, at this moment, the smart chip buried in her brain can capture her brain waves, connected to the machine on the side, and finally through the pulse signal, connected to the host of the [Minghe system], so that her consciousness can exist in the virtual system.

Dr. Erin stood outside the isolation window and looked at the little girl in the isolation ward, her face full of worry.

Just then, a figure walked into her office.

She didn't look back, and she knew who it was.

"Theo."

“…… How do you know it's me? Theo also stopped in front of the isolation window and looked at the little girl in the sterile ward, his eyes deepening.

"Since the birth of the eldest lady, the Pope has asked me to take care of the eldest lady's body, in the [Bloody Eye] organization, only you have come to visit the eldest lady the most, after so many years, I have long recognized your footsteps." Dr. Erin said lightly, glancing at Theo, "I heard the news, congratulations, the round table is victorious, and the upper position is successful." ”

Hearing this, Theo didn't have a happy expression, just a cold snort.

"I'm just taking back what belongs to me."

“…… So, did you really kill Vincent? ”

"Who told you?" Theo glanced at Dr. Irene.

"Now it's all going on in the organization, and it's hard for me to turn a deaf ear."

Rumors circulate this?

Hum.

Theo bowed slightly: "It seems that someone deliberately spread the news." ”

"Indeed, I guess they just want Vincent's men to hear these rumors so that they can turn against you together." Dr. Erin looked at Theo, "Still, I think you have a solution, and from what I know of you, you're not one to sit still." ”

Theo didn't say anything.

He doesn't like to be able to explain everything clearly.

If you let everyone see your hole cards at the beginning, you will undoubtedly lose cleanly.

Dr. Erin saw that he didn't speak, but he got used to his way of doing things.

"That's it, I'd better not interfere in the affairs of your [Arms Trafficking Group], but...... I think you'd better suggest that Vincent be released and sent to jail for a random reason, there's no need to let the rumors fly. ”

"Dr. Erin, it's not rumors that you've heard about Vincent." Theo interrupted.

Dr. Erin looked at Theo in surprise, "Is it ...... Did you really kill Vincent?!"

Theo smiled slightly, but did not answer.

Dr. Erin looked at Theo's calm expression, and suddenly felt that he hadn't seen through this man in the past few years.

Or is it ......

After he came out of prison, he got even better?

The experience of being betrayed by his subordinates made him realize that soft-heartedness is unstable, and only ruthless people can cut the grass and eradicate the roots to prevent future troubles.

Dr. Erin suddenly remembered the image of Theo pointing a gun at himself the night he returned from prison, maybe it was not a simple threat, and he really wanted to kill her at that moment......

“…… How is the eldest lady doing? ”

After a while, Theo opened his mouth to break the silence.

"It's still the way you see it, her vital signs are very stable, and her brain waves are not abnormal, as long as she doesn't get eliminated in the [Minghe System], she should be able to continue to be stable."

Theo frowned: "What do you mean?" Could it be that the eldest lady is eliminated from the competition, and she will also be allowed to die in the real world?! ”

Theo's tone suddenly became stern, and Dr. Erin's assistant on the side was startled, and the notebook in his hand fell to the ground.

Dr. Erin looked at her and waved her hand to let her go down first.

The female assistant picked up the notebook and left in a panic.

"You have to ask Scott for the specific situation, after all, the [Minghe system] is controlled by them, I just heard that after the player is eliminated, they will all become NPCs, and their flesh will also be destroyed, but I don't know if it is destroyed because the flesh is dead, or it is considered death in the physiological sense after destruction......"

Hearing this, Theo looked away indignantly.

"This damn Victor ......"

"Miss, she...... Is it okay in the Minghe system? Dr. Erin looked at Theo and asked worriedly, "She's only seven years old, she's still a child, and the other players she's faced are fierce and brutal criminals...... I'm really worried about her ......."

"I asked Scott for the identity of [Hunter], and then I'll go and see her in the game." Theo sighed, "Scott said that the eldest lady is still alive at the moment, and although her combat power level is the lowest, at least she hasn't been eliminated yet. ”

"The eldest lady can live so long and hasn't been eliminated from the competition...... Could it be that Scott is secretly protecting the eldest lady? Dr. Erin was a little surprised.

She had long heard of the bloody world in the [Minghe System].

But the eldest lady was able to survive so many rounds of games, which was beyond her expectations.

"Scott shouldn't be so kind, in his opinion, the rules of the game, more important than anything else. It is impossible for him to break the rules of the game of the [Minghe System] for the sake of the eldest lady. ”

"That ......"

"I got a list of gamers and saw an old friend in it......" Theo said, handing a list to Dr. Erin.

Dr. Erin flipped through the roster and found that it contained a detailed description of each player, along with each of their avatars and combat power ranking.

Suddenly, Dr. Erin saw a man.

"This man ......"

"I'm from the same background as him, we're both people who picked up half lives on the battlefield, he should remember me, and, I guess, he protected the eldest lady in the game."

"But...... It's one thing for him to remember you, and he doesn't know the eldest lady, why do you conclude that he will protect the eldest lady because of you? ”

Theo looked at the little girl lying on the bed and muttered, "Have you forgotten, I once gave something to the eldest lady." I once told her that at any time, in any danger, just blow the ......"

"Whistle!" Dr. Erin remembered.

"Yes, it's a whistle." Theo looked at the small whistle placed on the ear next to the pillow of the eldest lady, smiled slightly, and her eyes were always rarely dyed with the warm color of memories, "That was a gift I gave her on her fifth birthday, I know that the eldest lady's background is very special, her maternal grandfather is the founder and leader of the [Bloody Eye] organization, although the Pope has sent many people to secretly protect her safety, but it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no negligence, the eldest lady grew up alone, no parents, no friends, has always been insecure, I gave her this whistle." , I just want her to know that I, Theo, will be by her side at any time, so I don't have to worry. ”

"But I remember it was a broken whistle." Dr. Erin thought for a moment, "There were a few times when the eldest lady tried to blow that whistle, but she didn't hear it. ”

Theo shook his head and said in a deep voice: "It's not that there is no sound, it's because the structure of the whistle is special, and it emits a high-frequency whistle, which is inaudible to ordinary people." ”

"Huh?"

"This whistle is used for soldiers on the battlefield to communicate with each other, sometimes separated on the battlefield, we can use high-frequency whistles to communicate with each other, determine each other's position, and can also exchange information according to the length of the whistle, which is also a kind of code code. This high-frequency whistle is highly penetrating, can be transmitted at a long distance, and can only be heard by trained fighters. ”

"That's why you said to the eldest lady at that time, [If you are in danger, blow the whistle. No matter how far away, I'll get there]? ”

"Yes."

Dr. Erin nodded, and she looked at the roster in her hand, her eyes resting on the profile of the black player with the gas mask.

"So, this player called [Black Blade] is still your comrade-in-arms?"

"It used to be."

"Are you on good terms?"

"It's kind of bad." Theo replied truthfully.

"Huh??"

"I once witnessed him kill another comrade-in-arms, and because of this, he has always been angry with me." Theo muttered, his eyes covered in frost.

But Dr. Erin was in a hurry.

"Then, you're not afraid that guy called [Black Blade] will attack the eldest lady?!"

"He won't." Theo replied with certainty.

"But aren't you estranged?"

"He won't."

Theo repeated, this time in a more affirmative tone.
