Dr. Ander knew in his heart who was hiding in the chemical protective suit, because there were not many people who could still move normally in the hospital, and the person in front of him still had normal logic in both speech and tone, which was enough to prove that the other party was not yet infected. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Info Dr. Ender's vision that could not penetrate the mask saw himself on the glass, which was worse than he thought, it was no longer a human face - although it did not mean that his face was biologically abnormal, but at least his nervous system was already showing severe symptoms. Looking at the various changes I have encountered from a material point of view, and attributing them to the alienation of my own brain and nerves, may be one-sided, but it is certainly not wrong.

The condition of patients with doomsday syndrome is never purely a psychological illness, nor is it simply a physical illness, but depending on the severity, there are quite clear manifestations in behavior. Dr. Ander knew why the other party pointed a gun at him, and in the other person's opinion, he was a real madman. Researchers at the hospital know how bizarre, irritable and aggressive patients can behave when symptoms occur.

Although in Dr. Ander's view, and statistically speaking, chemical protective clothing is not effective against the "virus" at all, neither can reduce the probability of infection, nor can it really give people a sense of reassurance, but in the high-risk period of the disease, there are still many people who choose to wear chemical protective clothing. The person in front of me is probably one of the researchers, and there are not many people who are still moving around the patient's dormitory at such a time. Security personnel who maintain security on isolated islands can get infected with the "virus" faster than researchers can get the "virus". Through the analysis of the specific information of the infected person, we can feel that the entire infection process is actually regular, and it can even be said that it has a relatively clear purpose - just like the "virus" has a mind, and can differentiate and screen the target through a certain judgment standard. Of course, if the "virus" has a mind, it is really a bit appalling, and more researchers still believe that the "virus" does not have a mind, but its instinctive tendency, like "choosing a place to live".

- But doesn't this person recognize me anymore? Dr. Ender looked silently at the muzzle of the gun pointed at him, and couldn't help but have such thoughts.

“…… I'm Dr. Ender. He said.

However, the other party didn't seem to hear clearly, and the muzzle of the gun swung forward menacingly, and even if he couldn't see the face clearly through the mask, he could feel the other party's nerves were highly tense from his actions.

――Has my voice changed? Or is this person actually infected, so they can't understand my voice?

Dr. Ander raised his hands high, he didn't want to bet on whether the other party would shoot suddenly, even if he was not sick, he did not have the ability to dodge the bullet, although he had learned a little self-defense, but he was not sure that his ability could clamp the other party at such a close distance. In any case, in the case of language barriers, it is a priority to reduce the vigilance of the other party through actions. Even if the voice can't communicate, the action can be seen, on the other hand, if this innocent action becomes a threat to the other party, then you have to think carefully about whether the other party is really a normal person.

If the whole body is covered by a chemical protective suit, all the means of communication of human beings are like a veil, and it is difficult to judge the psychological direction of the other party from the superficial details, and Dr. Ander has always hated this.

The man in the chemical protective suit of "......" seemed to understand Dr. Ender's movements, and took a step back, the muzzle of the gun slightly lowered. Dr. Ander paid attention to the change in the direction of the muzzle with the corner of his eye, and thought: If you shoot at this time, the bullet will hit the thigh, and considering the speed at which the other party raises the muzzle again, it is not impossible to be hit in the kidney.

"Come out." The other party's tone was very stiff and emotional, which made Dr. Ander wonder: Could this guy have been here all along? If so, what would be the rationale?

With this in mind, Dr. Ender gently exited the room. His actions made the people in chemical protective suits relax a little, because these actions carried a strong implication that they could communicate with each other.

"Who are you?" Dr. Ender asked.

The hazmat suit made a gesture and activated some kind of device on the belt before saying, "You can understand me, right?" ”

"Of course." Dr. Ander said calmly, as if a flame was burning in his body, but it didn't show in his tone.

"Very well, it looks like the device is working, and now I can understand what you are saying." The other party breathed a sigh of relief, so that Dr. Ander couldn't help but cast his gaze at the device on the other party's waist again, did he rely on this device to correct the voice changes? I heard the other person repeat again: "Who are you?" ”

"I'm Ender." Dr. Ender repeated.

"Dr. Ender?" The chemical protective suit was obviously stunned for a moment, "Why are you here?" ”

"I also want to ask, why are you here at such a time?" Dr. Ender didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

“…… To stop people like you. The other party seemed to know why Dr. Ender was here: "There have been several researchers here before you, and you all have the same purpose anyway, you want to use these three special test subjects, right?" ”

"You're a researcher too?" Although it was a rhetorical question, Dr. Ender's tone was affirmative.

"Dr. Ender, we have an agreement." The other party did not intend to answer, but said so in a warning tone.

"You also know the situation in the hospital, so you can infer what the world has become, and is it right to stick to the old agreement at this time?" Dr. Ender habitually tries to convince the other party: "We have exhausted all the options, and there is no other choice but these three children." ”

"Whatever the reason, they're just kids." The chemical suit said cautiously: "We have never directly attacked the child, and we should not do so. ”

"Even if the world will perish because of it?" Dr. Ander asked rhetorically.

"Others say the same thing, but as far as I think, it's two issues." The tone of the chemical protective suit was also a little calmer, as if trying to convince Dr. Ander, and said, "Even if you use these children, it doesn't mean you can save the world, does it?" No one can be sure that the trials on these children will produce the desired results. ”

"We've done a lot of experiments with these kids." "There are no innocents and victims in the full sense of the word, and cheap compassion is just an illusion caused by human limitations when it comes to the end of its rope," said Dr. Ender. ”

"It's too cold, Dr. Ender. And I don't want to understand that either. "Chemical protective suits obviously have their own ideas, but there are many volunteers in this hospital, whether they are people who volunteer to do research or people who are willing to be studied, who doesn't have their own ideas? Dr. Ender didn't interrupt, but listened harmlessly, "Those who came here to do something said that, but none of them succeeded. ”

"You killed them?" Dr. Ender asked.

"No, they obviously ignore the abnormalities that can be caused by the peculiarities of these children, so ......" the chemical protective suit said after a pause before he said meaningfully: "Dr. Ander, have you noticed that some situations can happen to people who have too much contact with these children, whether with good intentions or with bad intentions?" ”

"Are you trying to say that we're all in a situation?" Dr. Ender asked rhetorically.

"Yes, people who are close to this place will get worse, and the more you want to reach these children, the faster the condition will worsen." The chemical protective suit said: "It is precisely because they are so special that they cannot act rashly." ”

“…… Your words now have proven that you are here with similar ideas as me. Dr. Ender immediately understood why he was here, "But, in the end, you didn't do anything. ”

"Yes, I can understand your thoughts, and I really didn't do anything." "However, doing more is not necessarily better than doing nothing," the suit said. ”

"Because you've failed." As the conversation progresses, Dr. Ender is gradually peeling back the barriers between the two and trying to see through each other's essence. No matter how beautiful the words are here, they do not change the fact that the other party always holds a gun at himself. This conversation took place with this kind of hostility, which Dr. Ender did not like.

Dr. Ender tugged at his neckline, and he felt his body burn hotter. There is no doubt that his condition is getting worse, but Dr. Ander has a noncommittal idea that the closer he gets to the three girls, the faster his condition will accelerate. In the past, none of these three children showed such particularity, so what are the reasons for the fact that they are now showing them? And what lies in the depths of these causes? These deeper questions are more important in Dr. Ender's view.

Excuses such as "they are just children" and "there was an agreement" can no longer be regarded as reasons for inaction in today's serious situation.

“…… If I fail, then, what about you? Dr. Ander stared at the hazmat suit and said, "Did you make it?" If you succeed, you shouldn't stay here. ”

"I have neither succeeded nor failed, because I have never wanted to find the decisive factor in them in a radical way." Without any hesitation, the chemical suits said: "They are always changing, and this change is so precious, any interruption of this natural change is superfluous." ”

Dr. Ander fully understands that the person in the chemical protective suit in front of him is indeed a researcher, but he is different from his own people in the direction of research - this is not surprising, there are many routes for the study of the "virus", different people have different ideas, and no one can prove themselves right before the results are reached, but the resources are limited, and the limited resources will be inclined to certain lines and ideas, and if the contradiction between the lines and ideas cannot be alleviated, the confrontation will be even more intense.

"You should know that we don't have time." Dr. Ender knew he couldn't convince him, but he had to do that now.

"There's no evidence of which of your positive actions or my side of observation will get closer to the results sooner, does it?" The chemical defense suit said: "Ignore human nature and morality first. To deal with that 'virus', any positive action will lead to the wrong results - I think there is a lot of data on this part. You are so anxious that when the changes you can see cannot bring results in a short period of time, you are eager to inspire new changes, thinking that there will be a wider range of paths and more possibilities. You take it for granted, you are right, but I don't think so. ”

“…… I don't think that such a reason would allow you to point a gun at me. Dr. Ender said.

"No, that's enough." The chemical protective suit said: "You are already anxious enough on weekdays, but now that you are infected, it is much more dangerous than usual. No matter how calm you are now, there is no proof that your heart is at peace...... I don't need to be too clear, do I? Dr. Ender, the burning heat that bursts from within you not only rushes into your brain, but even your appearance begins to melt. He pointed to the special device on his waist and said: "The sensor I made can detect the real-time data of the patient's state and convert it through a special algorithm, which reflects the relationship between the patient's physiological state and the psychological state, which is the most accurate in the entire hospital." It tells me that you are in danger right now, Dr. Ender. ”

"It turned out to be you." Dr. Ander has been able to judge the true identity of the other party, in today's hospital, there are not many researchers who can be so active, stand in such a position, and have this level, and the other party obviously has no intention of hiding his identity for long. In today's hospitals, it is almost impossible to hide one's identity, because the soil for competition is decreasing as the number of infected people increases, and there are not many people left to do things, on the contrary, the problems that need to be solved are multiplying.

Dr. Ender understands that as long as he does not actually attack, the other party will not shoot.

"What do you want? I don't feel like my decision was wrong. Dr. Ander asked rhetorically, "Even then, do you need my help?" ”

"No way, there are not enough people." The tone of the suit softened.

"Is it necessary to increase the number of people according to your thinking?" Dr. Ender said.

"It's really not enough for one person to do observation and data analysis at the same time." Chemical protective suit said.

"So, you're here to wait?" Dr. Ender said in the affirmative.

"Because you're going to come here." The chemical protective suit said: "Coming here proves that you can still think and do things...... Although the way of thinking about things is different. ”
