Chapter 17: The Death of Zhuang Yan

Half an hour later, Da Shi and Wang Miao, who got the news, hurried to the hospital.

Pang Xuelin held his head and sat on the chair at the door of the operating room with a look of self-reproach.

Seeing Li Yao and them, Pang Xuelin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Sister, you are finally here." ”

Li Yao said: "Little brother, how is Zhuang Yanren?" ”

Pang Xuelin shook his head and said, "Still rescuing inside, sister, do you have the contact information of Zhuang Yan's family?" We need to inform her family as soon as possible! ”

Li Yao frowned and said: "Zhuang Yan's father died when she was very young, and her mother was my colleague in Union Hospital, but just a week ago, her mother joined the medical team to aid Africa and rushed to Africa, I have already notified the hospital, but even if her mother rushes back, it is estimated that it will be at least two days later." “

Wang Miao said: "Xiao Pang, what the hell is going on, you and Zhuang Yan were fine when they left, why did you suddenly have a car accident?" ”

Pang Xuelin recounted the process before and after the car accident in detail, and blamed himself: "It's all my fault, if it wasn't for saving me, Zhuang Yan could have avoided it by himself." ”

Everyone couldn't help but be quiet, and Wang Miao said: "Since the incident has happened, don't blame yourself, and you can't blame you for this incident." I hope that Zhuang Yan's surgery will be smooth and smooth, and the most important thing is to recover his health as soon as possible. ”

Da Shi also stepped forward and patted Pang Xuelin's shoulder, and said, "Brother Pang, it's not your fault, don't be too sad......"

Pang Xuelin shook his head, although he knew it in his heart, but seeing Zhuang Yan being knocked into that way in order to save himself, he felt an indescribable discomfort.

If Zhuang Yan can't be saved, he doesn't know how to face Zhuang Yan's family.

At this time, Shi Qiang's mobile phone rang suddenly.

"I'm sorry, I'll answer the phone first."

Dashi said sorry and walked aside with his phone.

After a while, Da Shi hung up the phone, came to Pang Xuelin with a solemn expression, and said, "Brother Pang, take a step to speak." ”

Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned, got up and followed Shi Qiang to the corner.

Li Yao and Wang Miao on the side glanced at each other, not knowing why Dashi suddenly looked for Pang Xuelin.

Da Shi Zhengse said: "Brother Pang, my colleague called me just now and said that the investigation showed that this car accident was specially planned by ETO against you!" ”

"ETO orchestrated?"

Pang Xuelin's eyes widened, and he suddenly became excited, Dashi's words were like a splash of ice water, which made his originally restless heart calm down all of a sudden.

After the car accident, Pang Xuelin has always had a strange sense of familiarity, but he has never understood where this familiarity comes from, and now he knows.

In the second part of the novel "Dark Forest", the male protagonist Luo Ji also suffered a car accident after an affair, but in that car accident, it was Luo Ji's female friend who died, and Luo Ji was also taken away by the police for protection.

Later investigations revealed that the accident was the result of an ETO assassination.

This summer, Luo Ji met Ye Wenjie in front of Yang Dong's tombstone, listened to Ye Wenjie's suggestion, and came up with the idea of establishing a cosmic sociology, which aroused the fear of the three-body people.

The Three-Body Civilization was afraid that Luo Ji would comprehend the law of the dark forest and threaten its own survival, so it wanted to strangle Luo Ji first, and officially ordered ETO to assassinate Luo Ji.

It is precisely because the Three-Body Civilization wants to assassinate Luo Ji that the United Nations realizes that Luo Ji's existence poses a threat to the Three-Body Civilization, so it lets Luo Ji serve as the wall-facer!

But this time, why did ETO assassinate himself?

Did the Three-Body Civilization directly issue the assassination order? Or is it just revenge for betraying the ETO?

The expression on Pang Xuelin's face was uncertain, during this time, except for proposing the wall facing plan, he should not have shown any ability to threaten the three-body civilization.

With the arrogance of the three-body civilization, it is unlikely that he will pay attention to such a small ant as himself.

The only explanation is that after he proposed the wall-facing plan, some people in ETO thought that their existence also posed a threat to the Three-Body Civilization, so they persuaded the Three-Body People and caused such a car accident.

Pang Xuelin still remembers that when Zhuang Yan had a car accident just now, the system once told him that the plot of the three-body world had changed significantly, and he had to be forced to quit within 24 hours.

Does this mean that if you enter the three-body world again, you will face a world completely different from the original novel?

"Brother Pang, Brother Pang, what's wrong with you?"

Da Shi's voice made Pang Xuelin wake up from his contemplation, he shook his head and said, "Oh, I'm fine, Da Shi, I want to be alone and quiet!" There are some things I have to do from scratch. ”

"Okay, then I won't bother you for now, but you must not go out of my sight, ETO can't do anything, maybe I will plan an assassination operation against you!"

Pang Xuelin nodded and came to the corner near the elevator on the other side of the operating room.

Dashi consciously guarded the elevator entrance.

Pang Xuelin closed his eyes and said in his heart: "The system, is it still there?" I have a few questions I would like to consult. ”

"Host, please!"

Pang Xuelin said: "You just asked me to quit the three-body world within twenty-four hours, so will my body also disappear in this world, if Zhizi observes me to disappear inexplicably like this, will it cause the fear of the three-body people?" ”

The system said: "Host, please rest assured, after the plot of the three-body world is reset, once the host exits, the time of this world will come to a standstill, and the plot will be reopened only when the host enters again." ”

"That's good, there's another question, after the plot is reset, will you start the plot of the original world, or will you reopen the plot on the basis of my mission?"

The system said: "A new plot will be opened on the basis of this mission." ”

Pang Xuelin's eyes couldn't help narrowing and said, "So, what will happen if I change the fate of the characters in the plot?" For example, Zhuang Yan, if she is not rescued, or if she does not become Luo Ji's wife in the future, will it have an impact on the follow-up plot? “

The system said: "After the system reset is completed, a new task will be issued, the host only needs to complete the system task, and the system will not interfere with other transactions!" ”

Pang Xuelin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Anyway, it was Zhuang Yan who saved his life today.

In the original book, although Zhuang Yan and Luo Ji were combined, except for the first three years when Luo Ji became the wall-facing person and the five years after waking up from hibernation, Zhuang Yan was not happy at other times.

If he could, he hoped that Zhuang Yan could spend his life peacefully and happily, instead of repeating the life in the original book.

"By the way, system, and one last question, if I return to the real world, when will I be able to enter the three-body world again?"

The system said: "It takes three to six months for the plot to be reset, and when it will be able to enter depends on when the plot reset is completed!" ”

"Okay, then I don't have any other questions, thank you!"

Pang Xuelin reopened his eyes, but found that at some point, there were several more strong men in suits near the operating area.

At the same time, Shi Qiang was talking to a man in his fifties with a star on his shoulder.

Seeing Pang Xuelin coming over, Shi Qiang smiled and said: "Brother Pang, let me introduce to you, this is my old superior, General Chang Weisi, who was previously in charge of the operation of the Chinese Theater against ETO, and will be responsible for the formation of the Space Force next." ”

"Hello Professor Pang, I'm sorry to frighten you!"

Chang Weisi smiled and stretched out his hand.

"General Chang, hello!"

Pang Xuelin shook hands with Chang Weisi, and Chang Weisi said: "Professor Pang, this time we were negligent in our work, we didn't expect ETO to carry out assassination activities against you under such circumstances." In view of this, next, we will arrange a security team for you, with Comrade Shi Qiang as the team leader, who is fully responsible for your security work. In addition, your original teacher's apartment at Peking University is no longer safe, and we will also arrange a new residence for you! ”

Pang Xuelin didn't refuse, nodded and said, "General Chang, then I'll trouble you!" “

In the original novel, Luo Ji became the character who ETO wanted to get rid of, and thus he was also highly valued by countries around the world and served as the face of the wall.

Now, he is already one of the potential candidates for the wall-facer, coupled with such a change, I am afraid that whether it is the Chinese government or the Planetary Defense Council, the importance of themselves will rise by a level, and even like Luo Ji, it is possible to directly press the title of wall-facing person to himself at the United Nations Wall-Facing Conference.

In any case, the next step is only one step.

At this time, Dashi spoke up: "Brother Pang, the environment of the hospital is relatively complex, and the people are dense, we can't carry out a large-scale blockade and screening of this area, do you want to move to a safe place first?" ”

Shi Qiang obviously entered the role at the first time.

Pang Xuelin shook his head and said, "Dashi, wait until Zhuang Yan's surgery is completed, okay?" ”

Shi Qiang hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "That's okay!" ”

Chang Weisi said: "Professor Pang, since this is the case, then Dashi is here to accompany you, I still have something to do, so I will leave first!" ”

"General Chang go slowly!"

Chang Weisi nodded and entered the elevator.

Pang Xuelin returned to the door of the operating room.

Li Yao looked curiously at the security guards on duty nearby and said, "Little brother, who are these people?" ”

The sudden addition of these men in suits who looked a little like soldiers just now made her startled, especially when a general came to Pang Xuelin to let her and Wang Miao guess if something was wrong.

Pang Xuelin said: "This car accident is very likely to be an ETO assassination campaign against me, and these people are here to protect me." ”

Wang Miao and Li Yao couldn't help but look at each other.

Wang Miao said: "Xiao Pang, then you won't be okay next, right?" ”

Wang Miao didn't feel strange why ETO assassinated Pang Xuelin, after all, Pang Xuelin betrayed ETO and leaked so many secrets about ETO, so it would be strange if he didn't kill him.

Pang Xuelin reluctantly showed a smile on his face and said, "Don't worry, the military has specially arranged security personnel for me, you don't have to worry." ”

Wang Miao and Li Yao glanced at each other, their faces worried.

Then there was the long wait.

Six hours later, the lights at the door of the operating room finally went out.

After a while, the nurse pushed Zhuang Yan out of the operating room, and Pang Xuelin hurriedly surrounded him.

Zhuang Yan on the hospital bed was pale, with frowning eyebrows, as if he was suffering something.

However, her breathing was fairly steady, and there should be no danger to her life.

Pang Xuelin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Let Jean, let Rang, family members don't get in the way, patients need to rest!"

Pang Xuelin, Wang Miao and others hurriedly made way of a passage and let the nurse push Zhuang Yan through.

At this time, the doctor in a surgical gown walked out of the operating room, and Pang Xuelin and the others surrounded him again.

Pang Xuelin said: "Doctor, how is Zhuang Yan?" You okay? “

The doctor said: "The patient is not in danger of life, but ......"

"But what?"

"The patient has a comminuted fracture of the lumbar vertebrae, which damages the nerves, and I am afraid it will be difficult to stand up in the future!"

Pang Xuelin's originally relaxed expression gradually became stagnant, and he opened his mouth, but he felt that his mouth was dry, and he couldn't say a word.

A girl in the flower season, in the best age, but to encounter such misfortune, regret eroded Pang Xuelin's heart like a tide, if time could do it again, he would rather bear such torture instead of Zhuang Yan.

"Little brother, don't blame yourself too much, Zhuang Yanren is fine, we can find a way to help Xiaozhuang get back on his feet in the future!"

Li Yao comforted.

"Yes, there must be a way to get Zhuang Yan back on his feet!"

Pang Xuelin raised his head and said firmly.
