Chapter 82: Jack Awakens
About a few more days passed, these days were very calm, nothing had changed, and Uncle Mizuda still kept monitoring the background of the communication satellites, and still did not get anything valuable.
However, the number of astral pattern holders flying around in the sky has also become more frequent these days, and from time to time, one or two star pattern holders will pass by from high altitudes, marking an unpleasant sonic boom sound.
On this day, as usual, Mia returned to her bedside after wiping Jack's body, picked up a book borrowed from Xiaotian and read it, it was a botanical book, and the book introduced many plants, and Mia felt that she liked them, so she took them out and read them at her leisure.
In the room, only Jack, Mia, and Dr. Katie went to the floor to breathe.
Suddenly, Mia heard a faint coughing sound, the sound was so subtle that it would not be audible if it were an ordinary person, but she was a star-striped test subject, and her hearing ability was very strong.
Mia put down the book and walked up to Jack, finding that his eyes were slightly open, and the whole person looked weak.
"Are you awake?" Mia approached Jack and observed Jack's eyes, which narrowed slightly, but were not closed.
There was another slight cough, and the corners of Jack's mouth moved slightly, as if to say something, and the voice was very weak and weak, and Mia couldn't hear clearly, so she leaned her ear against the corner of Jack's mouth to hear what he was saying.
Mia could only faintly hear a vague sustain, still unable to make out what he was saying, but she was sure that the corners of Jack's mouth were moving slightly, so she just got up to guess what the sustain she had just heard meant, and after thinking for a moment, she saw the kettle placed next to her bed, and then seemed to understand.
"Water, are you talking about water, you need to drink water, right?" Mia pointed to the kettle next to her bed and said softly.
Jack was so weak that he couldn't make any other sounds, but the corners of his mouth moved and stopped moving, and Mia seemed to know what it meant, she tore a straw from the packaging of the boxed drink, and returned to Jack with the kettle.
"Sorry, no spoon, I don't know if the straw will work." Mia slipped one side of the straw into the kettle and the other into Jack's mouth.
But the corners of Jack's mouth seemed to move only slightly, he was so weak that he couldn't even hold the straw, he just exhaled softly, and stopped moving.
Mia found that it was not possible, so she thought of other solutions, she looked around the room, and could not find anything to feed Jack water, because the food in their hands was ready-to-eat food, and if it was canned, it was eaten directly with a dagger, so the group did not have a spoon.
"I'm sorry, but that seems to be the only way to go." Mia took the straw out of the kettle and poured the water into her mouth, but didn't swallow it.
Mia approached Jack gently, and for a moment, the corners of the two mouths slowly touched, and then Jack's throat moved slightly, which was the action of swallowing food in the throat, Mia's lips were soft and cold, and for a moment, Jack's fingers and eyes moved slightly.
"Thanks...."Jack let out a faint sustain weakly, and then stopped moving, but his eyes opened a little more, no longer a slit, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't, it was a feeling of weakness that swallowed everything, he just opened his eyes a little more and used all his strength.
"I'm going to call Dr. Katie." Mia said softly, Dr. Katie said that if the patient woke up, he should call her as soon as possible, so Mia was also planning to call Dr. Katie.
But when Mia turned around and walked out the door, she was facing away from Jack, Mia was not a normal human, she was a star-striped experimental subject transformed by the Starstripe Company, she had an Alayya consciousness system, and the ring interface on the third spine on her back, so from time to time the ring interface on her back would light up with a faint blue light, and this scene was seen by Jack.
When Mia opened the door, the wake-up port on her back suddenly lit up, and a faint blue light appeared through her clothes, and from Jack's line of sight, a blue ring of light suddenly lit up on Mia's back, of course Jack had seen that kind of aperture, and he was familiar with what an aperture was.
For a moment, Jack thought he had been captured by the Starstripe Company, he thought that the Starstripe Company did not kill him because he knew his identity, he thought that the Starstripe Company wanted to get the Resistance's secret out of him, Mia left the room, the door of the room was closed again, and Mia walked to the elevator to the ground.
