Dr. Ruan Li rubbed her temples, the number of "Super Dorothy" recently has increased several times more than in the past, everyone is busy looking for patterns from it, interpreting the phenomenon of the feedback of the number jù, as a member of the research team of the Lurker Organization, she is naturally no exception, not to mention, she is a newcomer who has just been recruited, if she fails to make achievements, even if the Lurker Organization will not pursue trouble, others in the same research team will inevitably have doubts about her professional level. Although the research direction of this research team is different from that led by Dr. Ender, the nature of the researchers themselves will not change, and no one wants to accept someone who cannot help them. Dr. Nguyen Le is not a funder or research leader, and she is only responsible for her own part of the project, although there is still controversy about whether she is suitable for this part of the project.

Dr. Ruan Li did make a certain contribution by using the resources of the research laboratory during this time, but whether he has the ability to become the host of the project is still in the wait-and-see stage, of course, the benefits promised by the lurker organization will not be canceled or reduced, but for the researcher, presiding over the project and becoming a handyman of the project are naturally completely different in terms of their own affirmation.

Everyone is convinced that their own research is important and indispensable to the overall research goal, but in fact, it does not change because of this confidence. To get people to be sure of your results, you must first make them. Dr. Ruan, like other researchers, does not feel that the current progress of the research can be described as "results". Everyone is an employee of the "hospital", and they can also rely on the intelligence of the lurker organization to understand the progress of Dr. Ender's team on a certain level. On the whole, everyone can accept the fact that their progress is a little behind, and the resulting competitive mentality. It's hard to get people to accept a "not strong enough" research member.

Dr. Ruan Li is naturally confident in his research strength and research direction, but whether he can get enough time in a study will not be diverted by his own judgment. Cases in which the results cannot be achieved in a short period of time and are brushed off in the study. In her past work, she has seen it many times, and even twice it happened to herself - it is not about her own ability, but only whether she can adapt to the standards of a particular environment, and the philosophy of survival of the fittest can be seen everywhere.

The more awkward the research, the more restrictive it becomes, and before joining the Sleepers, Dr. Nguyen understood that if he could accept, "I can't get into Dr. Ender's team." can only participate in research as a marginal person", naturally there is no need to work so hard. In fact, even in Dr. Ander's team, there has never been any pressure on Dr. Nguyen Li. It's just that as a researcher, the strangeness of the things I'm studying, and the sensibility that comes from getting up close and personal with Takakawa. It made her unable to accept her marginalization. She wanted to know the nature of the "virus" and what it represented. Curiosity, responsibility, and initiative to fulfill her responsibilities as a doctor, and to go one step further, to achieve something that shocked the world, is why she joined the Sleeper Organization even though she knew the danger.

The Infiltrator Organisation is limited by the environment in which it operates. However, in terms of the size of the research team, the current research team has not much difference between the equipment and the Dr. Ander's team. There is a possibility to catch up. Even if he didn't care about the eyes of others, Dr. Ruan Li didn't want to waste these conditions, which were many times better than before.

Dr. Nguyen Le has to complete the work of the "hospital" during the day, although after Gao Chuan's disappearance, the main management responsibility has been relieved, and only need to regularly manage other less special patients - which is also a symbol of marginalization - however, the deterioration of patients has also been very difficult in recent times, and Dr. Ande's team does not expect her to make any substantial breakthroughs, but it is also a lot of work just to count the number of patients and write reports that match their identities on a regular basis. Because of his status as both a hospital employee and a research member of the Lurker Organisation, Dr. Nguyen Le can get a glimpse of the current deterioration in the timeline.

The damage and reorganization of Super Dorothy, the sudden collapse and deterioration of the laboratory when the anomaly is observed, and even the mania of the patient during this time, all show a coherence. For the research team, this coherence requires further proof and dissection, and while it is more pleasing for the study to have an anomaly than no change at all, the explosive, unsolvable deterioration is still stressful. I and others are studying a "virus" that has never been seen before, and it is definitely not weaker than any known malignant virus in terms of lethality, and no matter what factors cause the outbreak of zhì, there is a great risk of death. In the face of the "virus" in any sense, identity is not enough to give security guarantees, and the only way to make yourself feel safe is to find a way to crack the "virus" and create serums and anti-drugs.

Everyone is scrambling for time, not entirely for the confrontation of research concepts, but also to save their own lives - the experts who can enter the research team understand that once this "virus" is in the pool, even if the defense forces of the hospital and the lurker organization are combined, it is definitely not enough, and the only thing that can prevent the spread of the catastrophe is probably only a nuclear bomb - no, it may not even be possible to solve the problem with a nuclear bomb, because, the existence of this "virus", It feels like it's out of the realm of mass-energy formulas in today's science. And this is the most attractive thing about the "virus", as long as you can get a glimpse of some of the essence, it makes people feel that it will make a breakthrough contribution to the limitations of today's science.

This race is no longer just about personal honor and disgrace.

Huge numbers are tumbling on the screen, and the servers in the low temperature environment are constantly increasing the temperature. These statuses are reported at regular intervals before they reach a tipping point. As the pressure on the server increased, the reported mechanical sound became more frequent, and although it was irritating, none of the researchers would mention that it would be turned off. This is not the first time this has happened, and more and more details have made the researchers' faces gloomy. If you want to adapt to stress, you must have a general understanding of stress, and the increase in stress is probably out of the scope of adaptation of many researchers, Dr. Ruan Li looked around at his colleagues and couldn't help but think in his heart.

Dr. Nguyen Le is in better shape than most because: She may not be the most adaptable, but in terms of psychological adjustment, she is the most capable. She is not the only expert in psychology in the team, but she has always believed that she is the strongest one in the field of clinical adjustment - she can't help but lack the confidence that she has experience in getting along with Takakawa in close proximity. Let her have that confidence. Without the experience of spending time with that kid for a long time, it is impossible to understand how much pressure Takakawa's abnormality will bring to the person in charge. It's not just the pressure at work, it's the pressure that arises when people get along with each other and try to understand each other, and it's also an association that arises from the other person's abnormal state for no reason. If it is possible to be indifferent to all of these, then. It is impossible to be in charge of this patient - the hospital is not a place for people to gild. In terms of the specificity of the patient, there is no pressure. It can also be explained that there is no motivation to meet the target. And researchers who are not motivated are not trustworthy.

The hospital embodies the most whimsical ideas since Dr. Ruan Li's work, and the particularity of the "virus" makes it impossible to find a way purely from low-end science, and all high-end science. There are many unsubstantiated speculations in themselves. The work here, even if it strictly follows the scientific research method, often breaks the conventional scientific way of thinking and uses imagination as a breakthrough when it comes to specific situations. Every little improvement. It may seem less scientific, and of course, whether these "progresses" are really progress or not, may need more precise examples to prove, but if there is no such "progress", it can only be said that there is no way out.

Dr. Nguyen Lê, like everyone else, groped in the dark that the object of study did exist, which must be affirmed by all researchers, but, on the other hand, all researchers had to think that the object of study seemed to be quite far from the field reached by science today. This remoteness is just a feeling, no one can be sure how far it is, no one can be sure of what is still in the dark, and if you want to understand it, you have to find a way in the darkness - perhaps, this path is full of too many uncertainties, every point on the road is still in an incomprehensible state, but as long as you can get to the "virus" through it. As long as you are sure that this path can reach the goal, it is still too late to go back and study what this road is all about. And if you can't walk to the "virus", everyone will be in big trouble, and people will feel terrible big trouble just by having a trace of association.

This is not a case of getting a Pandora's box and being opened by someone else - this Pandora's box has been opened by itself, whether people want it or not, and it is not at all subject to people's wishes.

The sound of the mechanical report came again, and the sudden increase in the malignant state seemed to have slowed down, and Dr. Ruan Li could tell that those who were indifferent were actually relieved. In this abruptly relaxed atmosphere, she unplugged the disk, encrypted her proprietary work end, said a word to the other colleagues, and left the secret research room.

On the way back, there are strong secrecy measures, and there are not many people in charge of it, but the first criterion is to make the returnee lose his or her position in the research room. Dr. Nguyen Li suspects that these secrecy measures were developed and implemented by Super Dorothy. After the elevator door opened, he walked out to the hospital building where his office was located, although many details showed that the elevator that ran through the building was closely related to the hidden research room of the lurker organization, but without identity verification, it was impossible to take the elevator to get there—according to the feeling when he returned, the research room was probably under this building, but Dr. Ruan Li knew very well that this feeling was very unreliable, and if the secrecy of the research room was only at this level, it would have been discovered by the "hospital" long ago.

Although it has been speculated that the "Hospital" has mastered the hiding place of the Sleepers on this island, this conjecture is still only a conjecture. Dr. Ander must have known about the two identities, but from the time of his life of constantly switching between the two identities, Dr. Nguyen Li had the feeling that Dr. Ander did not know the specific situation about the Infiltrator Organization and the information he had about the Infiltrator Organization. All of them lag behind in timeliness. The "hospital" has been infiltrated, and it is very strict, although the large net woven by the lurker organization cannot shake the foundation of the existence of the "hospital", and even, it is impossible to participate in the study of the "hospital" in a normal way, but. Unless a strong blow is carried out by an external force, the foundation of the Sleeper Organization cannot be shaken. Even, if an external force tries to interfere with the internal structure of the "hospital", there will be resistance from external forces.

This feeling made Dr. Ruan Li no longer as scared as he was when he first decided to join the Lurker Organization, all the states of falling behind are relative, and the background of the Lurker Organization will not be much worse than that of the "Hospital", just. Until the balance is upset, all parties have enough patience to wait.

I am afraid that for the people living on this island, the threat posed by the "virus" itself is much higher than the threat posed by the situation of internal forces and the situation of external forces. The feeling became even more heavy when she arrived at the office and turned on her computer to receive new emails—several more hospital staff showed signs of infection while she was working in the research labs of the Sleeper Organizations. Among them, there are not only ordinary staff, but also front-line researchers. The defense and management measures that have been constantly reinvented have not been able to truly isolate the threat of the "virus" in the real room.

Everyone knows that it is impossible, and there is too much evidence that the "virus" has long been spread in the air. When a person will get sick is just a probability. It has nothing to do with the constitution of the human being, or even those measures that are more consolatory than practical. Everyone in the hospital can become a patient at any time, and this chance is not much different from being outside the island.

Maybe the next one is yourself? Dr. Nguyen Le was in a heavy mood and replied to the email. Turn off your computer. From tomorrow onwards, there will be more patients to manage, and there will be people I know, which is not a happy job. She glanced at the sky and decided not to work tonight and give herself some time to rest, otherwise, her body might collapse first in the increasingly heavy work. As a doctor, she has high requirements for self-management, and, at least mentally, a good body can make people feel that their chances of getting sick are reduced. She didn't want to go from being a researcher to being studied, and there were too many cases to tell her how painful and desperate it would be if she suffered from doomsday syndrome.

When Dr. Nguyen Le left the office, the light of the setting sun was shining down the hallway, like a piece of golden sand, full of freshness and beauty that is rarely seen in the city, and even if the island is not very beautiful and has too many artificial modifications, the sky without industrial pollution still exudes an intoxicating luster and color at certain moments. If I didn't face such terrible things in my work, I'm afraid that the mood at this time would be the same as if I was on vacation. When she deliberately did not think about the research topic, other slightly soft and sensual thoughts quickly filled her mind, and she enjoyed this emotional divergence, which can be said to be the most relaxed moment she had ever had in this time. Even the heavy footsteps seem to become brisk.

However, such a good mood was broken by a commotion as soon as Dr. Ruan Li stepped out of the building. A bunch of people were rushing in her direction, it was one group of people chasing another, and there was a fierce fight between the two sides, and someone was shot directly and rolled on the ground. The chaos came so suddenly, no one seemed to think of firing a gun until then, they hula came out of a corner, and in just a few blinks of an eye, they were already in a violent and dangerous state. Dr. Ruan Li could see at a glance that it was a group of crazy patients with doomsday syndrome, and the security personnel responsible for the safety of the hospital were naturally chasing them - it was either a guard or a soldier, they were uniformly dressed, equipped with highly comprehensive equipment, and even directly appeared in every corner of the hospital at night in the image of special forces. The size of the hospital is theoretically the entire island, but these security personnel are basically only in charge of areas with a large number of people, but, if ordered to do so, they will pursue their target to any inaccessible part of the island.

Naturally, Dr. Nguyen Li couldn't judge the combat effectiveness of these security personnel, but she knew very well how dangerous a mad doomsday syndrome patient was, and it was definitely an existence that ordinary people could not match. They are like hormones, their mobility is fully improved, and they are terrifyingly aggressive, and when they rush up, even with firearms they can't intercept them, because these patients will become different from ordinary people in the deterioration stage of their condition - even if the heart and brain are hit by a penetrating blow, they will not die in the first place, and once they are injured, they are very likely to be infected. This chance is about 10 percent greater than the chance of a sudden onset, and no one wants to experience it for themselves.

Ordinary people, even ordinary soldiers, could not cope with such a large group of mad patients, if they were caught in it, the danger would skyrocket, Dr. Nguyen Li immediately returned to the building, opened a room with a clear hand, the sound of footsteps behind her was already coming, she had just slammed the door hard, she heard a loud crash - the patient just crashed into it, the door locks were twisted, followed by more intense gunfire.

Without thinking, Dr. Nguyen Le pushed a heavy object such as a cabinet to block the door before the next impact, and just after completing this, the glass window of the room was smashed through. Several patients reached in with their teeth and claws, as if trying to tear down the windows entirely. Dr. Ruan Li casually picked up the glass jar on the table and smashed it hard. The patients fought back and acted even more frantically, but because they were huddled together, they were unable to move, and were soon sieveed by bullets fired from the other end of the hallway. Then they struggled for a while, and then gradually stopped moving.

The crazy sight made Dr. Nguyen Li's heart beat violently, although it was not the first time he had experienced such an emergency, but it could not be said that he could get used to it anyway.

Dr. Ruan Li slowly retreated, although he didn't actually waste much of his body, he felt very tired mentally, and it seemed that all the strength of his body was about to run out. She sat down at the table and waited for security to announce safety. The shouting and gunfire continued for a quarter of an hour, during which time a patient jumped from a higher floor, and Dr. Nguyen Le saw her with her broken leg and fled in other directions as if she had no pain in the slightest—it may not be appropriate to say "escape", as these frenzied patients did not have any actual fear, not even instinct, in Dr. Nguyen's research. The pattern of their activities does not change because of their emotional fluctuations, as if something is guiding their actions, but in terms of the details of their activity status, they do not have a clear goal and plan. To put it simply, they are born with a situation where they feel they should do something, but they don't know how to do it, and the logic of their behavior that they have been educated to a freezing point is reduced to a freezing point, but it is extremely emotional, and it is often negative and extreme. It was as if at this moment, they had all become natural saboteurs, they wantonly did completely irrational things, and no matter what they did, they had only one result - spontaneous combustion.

The patient who jumped down from the stairs, broke his leg, but was still running with his broken leg, as if he was unconscious, had just thrown less than ten steps, and a sudden burst of fire suddenly rose from his body, and it turned into a ball of fire in the setting sun. Burning, she ran for some distance before falling headlong to the ground, her charred body melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She's finished. Dr. Nguyen Li confirmed in his heart. This type of death, in every sense of the word, is more complete than simply converting to LCL, and it is a type of deterioration that cannot be recycled, and it is the most important situation to be avoided in the research to date.
