1829 Ender's Self-Salvation
Dr. Ander tried to find out the hidden ones who were still monitoring the changes in the hospital from the patterns of action of these Takakawa clones, not only to find an explanation from them, but also to use this as an opportunity to try to cooperate with them and find a way to get out of this isolated hospital in case of emergency.

In the past, confrontation was a political necessity and an academic necessity, but today's cooperation is for the survival of each other. Dr. Ender doesn't feel that his odds are low, and there is never a shame in giving in and compromising in the face of an existential crisis. Rather, as long as both sides understand the current plight of isolated hospitals, then cooperation is imperative. He didn't know how much time was left before the worst outcome he expected, and he didn't feel that he was the only one who had such a sense of urgency.
Only one-third of the land has been converted into building land, and only two-thirds of the building land is used for hospital operations, and the most used place in the hospital area is the place where patients are housed and studied. Including patients and staff, there are about 1,000 people in the most recent data records, and if you calculate the length of a week, the time that people are close to the edge of the hospital is only about 40 hours, and the spread from the edge of the hospital outward, the farther away it is, the less people set foot in it. Even the guards patrol the hospital walls not every day, but go around about two or three days a week, and most of them focus on the central areas where people are most active. However, this does not mean that the security of the hospital is weak, as long as the range of movement of the hospital personnel can be controlled, it will be able to reach the scene of the incident in time when danger arises - most of the time this is true, but Dr. Ander is well aware that there are always unhuman accidents and man-made conspiracies in the hospital, and there are always incidents where the guards are exhausted and eventually abandon the investigation.
In the final analysis, although this hospital has the support of all parties, from another point of view, it is also the result of a compromise between all parties. Some people who don't want too many people on the island to know need a place to hide from others, which is why this small island has not been fully developed. The money behind this non-profit research hospital is enough to hollow out the entire island, and if you really want more security, you can completely deploy common and uncommon surveillance systems to the entire island.
Dr. Ander was already the apparent leader of the hospital, but with the tools he had, his vision could only extend to the edge of the hospital, and it was impossible to get past the seemingly dangerous wall outside. From this point of view, the walls of the hospital are more like a way to prevent people from escaping the hospital too easily.
Perhaps, for those who have been secretly monitoring the hospital by some means, if someone tries to escape from the hospital and acts, then this person also has "value" - his actions are not important in themselves, nor do they consider them to pose any threat, but it is interesting to see what prompted him to "escape the hospital". The hospital is staffed only by contracted staff and patients who are unable to act on their own, neither of whom apparently would have such thoughts under "normal circumstances".
The narrow known, and the huge unknown, the distribution of people's activity area and field of vision on the island is also a true portrayal of the research results of the researchers in the hospital on the "virus".
Having come to this point, watching the entire hospital fall along the irretrievable abyss, even the once ambitious Dr. Ender had to admit that he was on the verge of failure, and that he would fall to pieces if he loosened his legs and feet. He re-examined the current situation of the hospital and made a decision that was as heavy as when he signed the job: how to get out of the hospital in the next time is more important than studying the "virus", even if the "virus" has such a terrifying and destructive effect on the structure of human society from the available data. However, research is no longer sustainable, and both time and manpower have reached the limit, so there is no way to give up, even if giving up at this time will make your previous efforts unsuccessful, and maybe it will produce greater consequences from the level of "human society", it is also a matter of no choice.
At no other time would he have believed the reasons he had given, but after thinking about it, he decided that he had to accept it, and used psychological means against him. These acts of interfering with his own heart allow him to maintain a calm mind even in difficult situations.
From time to time, Dr. Ender peeked out of the room through the blinds, and the shadows of those activities did not maintain consistent action, and from an individual point of view, they were sometimes irritable, sometimes quiet, sometimes active, sometimes silent, and not because they were "Takakawa" or not. Some of these patients can speak, but I am afraid that they themselves do not know that the sound they make is beyond the range of normal human voices, and the language of muttering is by no means a common language - even Dr. Ender, who is familiar with the five Chinese languages, cannot tell which country's language it is, or rather, he does not think that this is the language that has ever appeared in the history of human beings on earth.
The atmosphere of the night was made even more eerie by the movement of these figures and their incomprehensible voices, and one felt the slightest chill in the body, and did not want to go outside at all, but only wanted to hide in darker places until daylight fell. However, Dr. Ender believes that only such a night can there be a chance of finding a turnaround.
There are too many clues in the intelligence available to him that half of the current situation in the hospital is human-driven, and not entirely the result of a rapid infection by the "virus". Those hidden people who are not under the direct control of the various institutions of the hospital have caused all this when the "virus" has become active, and the other party has no idea of evacuating for the time being, and seems to want to do something further.
Dr. Ander has confirmed in the past few days that there are only about 30 people left, including himself, who can still maintain normal minds and actions around the clock, compared to the recorded data of 1,000 people, it is already difficult to maintain normal activities. It can be said that no matter how well they hide, as long as the general environment does not improve, the attrition will continue. If you want to survive, you have to dig deep into the hospital.
Dr. Ender, as the most sober-minded person, has assigned tasks for everyone else, and everyone may have had conflicts with each other in the past, but at this time, they also decided to cooperate sincerely, and this result is already rare good news in recent times. The group used the daytime to search all aspects of the hospital system, and the area that had been classified was also forcibly opened by Dr. Ender, but they did not find a clear clue.
At first, it was assumed that those who had gone into hiding might have built separate chambers on top of the hospital layout, and that the most classic chambers were either hidden in the compartments of known rooms or dug deep underground. However, the blueprint of the hospital building does not indicate the spatial structure of these secret rooms and the data that can be used for inference and calculation. That's what Dr. Ender thought at first, and he had conducted detailed inspections of the interior of the building many times in the past, but the other party's hidden methods were undoubtedly higher, and under Dr. Ender's self-controlled search, he didn't show much of his feet.
Now, the survivor's Yi Jian and Dr. Ander have agreed on the idea of doing what Dr. Ander has done in the past, but they still haven't been able to find more clues, which makes people wonder what went wrong. There are two reasons that are generally accepted by most people: one is that there is no direct connection between the hiding house and the hospital building, and the entrance and exit are set at the edge of the hospital or outside the hospital, and they need to expand the search area; Second, there is a clear connection between the hiding house and the hospital building, but it is hidden by using some technology beyond the ability of others, and the most effective way to find them is probably to use an excavator to move the ground in a suspicious place, forcibly destroy the underground structure, or in this way, force the other party to appear.
In addition to these two methods, Dr. Ander gave his own thoughts: if there are really human-driven ingredients in the abnormalities of the Gaochuan clones and the patients, then the other party will definitely always pay attention to the Takakawa clones, and under certain conditions, the Takakawa clones will be tested regularly or irregularly. According to the actions of these people in the past, it is clear that they are also researching "viruses", and they have also stolen hospital research materials and interfered with hospital research subjects, but it seems that they never intended to follow the route that hospitals have taken. These signs have led Dr. Ander to speculate that these hidden people are not only monitors of the financiers, commercial and non-commercial spies, but they are also another research system in parallel with the hospital research, and their work actually expands the efficiency and feasibility of "virus" research.
Adopting a one-size-fits-all research system is a waste of money and a redundant act that has been criticized for many studies, but it is not without its benefits. Not to mention the benefits of competition, in terms of the threat that the "virus" has already shown, it is also necessary to put apples in different baskets.
It is also a good idea to open several research institutes to conduct research on "viruses" and share the results of research, but on the other hand, it is also quite desirable to place a research system in the same research institute that is one bright and one dark, one main and one secondary, and to a certain extent prohibit exchanges between the two sides, in the hope that different results will be bred in the faint competition and limited exchanges. I felt that it was important to find ways to ensure the diversity of research methods, both in terms of form and behavior, and to ensure that considerable results could be achieved within a limited timeframe.
At present, this isolated hospital seems to have been abandoned, but in fact, what has been abandoned is only a superficial research system that has not been able to produce results for a long time, and in places that no one can see, there may have been people who have come up with further results. In this way, since those who are hiding in the shadow of the hospital are operating with such fanfare, can it be considered that they have indeed achieved greater results, completely reversing the previous disadvantages in this research race, and instead driving Dr. Ender himself and others into a corner?
From this point of view, those who have already achieved an advantage also want to go further, assuming that the performance of patients today is their research, then they must maintain a certain intensity of observation and try to control the patient's activities. In this way, the traces of their activity will be manifested from the patient, and will no longer be traceless.
The most active time for the patients, and the most active time for the obviously specific group of Takagawa replicants, is at night, so even if the activity of these patients makes the night extremely dangerous, everyone can only start from this time period.
The proposal was quickly accepted by others, and Dr. Ender knew that there was nothing they could think of but to follow who could still find a way.
The observation of patients at night has been going on for three days, and because there are only thirty people to choose from, and not all of them can participate in the operation at this fixed time period, the geographical range of observation at the same time is actually very narrow, forcing them to make a preferential choice. Even with the hospital's existing monitoring system, only one-third of the patient's main activity area can be monitored on a rotational basis for three days. Because, to a certain extent, this monitoring system is also fragmented, and there is no unified control center - when Dr. Ander first learned of this situation, he felt that it was the result of a compromise between multiple parties, and a deformity caused by knowing that it was inconvenient but still having to insist on his own interests. He was not disgusted by this, and he felt that it was the inevitable result of the current human social behavior, but now the disadvantage of this inevitable result forced him to smile bitterly.
Will you be able to find a clue tonight? Dr. Ender was unsure, and felt a little uneasy in his heart, the longer the fruitless action was delayed, the more scattered the people's hearts became, and the hearts of those who could not be cohesive at this time would be held back at a critical time. Dr. Ender already had a vague sense that in the past three days, many people had begun to question this action.
Then, at a certain moment, the pager around his waist began to vibrate.
Dr. Ender's heart pounded, and he realized that the long-awaited clue had appeared, and that he and the others had not been lurking in vain.
