26. Secret place of voyeurism
This underground storage room seemed to be the connecting point of the castle's secret passages, and when Joseph turned another teacup, a new entrance to the secret passage appeared. "Come in, Chinese girl." Joseph's tone was never coercive, but with a faint invitation, coupled with his unique exquisite appearance, she knew that she would definitely not be able to refuse, if Joseph even threatened, she would probably refuse to go in with him because she feared for her own safety. It seems that Joseph knew how to make good use of his appearance.
This secret passage is a little different from the one leading to the laboratory just now, it is very narrow, only one person can pass through, and if you are a little fatter, you may be stuck between the passages. And this secret passage has stairs, and if you count according to the stairs of the castle, they should have climbed to the fourth floor by now. "Where the hell are you going?" She couldn't help but ask.
"You'll find out right away." Joseph smiled mysteriously.
They didn't climb the stairs anymore, but walked into a narrow path, and on one side of the path there were wooden doors with room numbers hanging on them. Joseph seemed to be picking which room to take her into, and stood there for a moment before he walked two doors forward and pushed open the third, "Come, come in." Joseph said.
After entering, will she see an iron cage like a cell, and then she will be put in a cage like a white mouse, injected with N drugs, and then see how she dies in the end?
"Hehe, don't be so nervous." Joseph laughed, "It's so easy to lock you up, I don't need to go to such trouble to bring you here." โ
yes, she's stepping on someone's turf right now. Fortunately, she carried her passport and other documents with her, otherwise they would have burned her passport, and it would have been difficult for her to leave. Although the current situation seems to be that she wants to use it as a new living experiment, after all, there is no real danger yet, and maybe someone will eventually come out and say that this is a whole big laughing event for the hotel to celebrate many anniversaries.
The room is not large, rather narrow and long, estimated to be two meters wide and seven meters long. The furnishings are also very simple, with only two chairs and a small square table. And the most important part of the room are the walls on both sides, with strange square buttons on them, and there are quite a few of them. "These ...... Could it be a peephole, and as soon as you open it, you can see the situation in the room on the other side? She half-jokingly. I remember reading in a book that in order to monitor the people living in the castle, people in the past built secret rooms and peeping holes for eavesdropping and peeping holes when designing and building the castle, but these holes will not be found on the other side of the room?
"That's right." Joseph gestured to her to sit down, "This is inside the wall between the two rooms on the left and right, and most of these holes are not easy to detect. He pulled a square button, pulled out a slender square stone, leaned in and looked at it, and then said to her, "You can come and see it now." โ
What's there to see? She leaned over and could see through the hole the room on the other side. In that room was a man, but the man seemed unwell and was lying on the bed moaning in pain. "That man is not feeling well, and you don't need to find a doctor for him?" She turned back and asked Joseph in a low voice.
Joseph shook his head, "You can go on." โ
There was a knock on the door and something in a language she didn't understand, and the man on the bed struggled to get up and open the door. The man led the person to the round table in the room and sat him down--she recognized the waiter in the hotel's dress--his face was as pale as paper, but he was straight and talked to the visitor, just by looking at the man's face, she thought he would faint as he spoke. The waiter frowned and said this to him, but the man shook his head in horror, then took the waiter's hand and knelt down humbly, and continued to talk with a pleading expression. But the waiter shook his head very seriously and stood up while talking, the man knelt desperately to catch up to protect the waiter's feet and shouted loudly, the waiter finally stopped helplessly and turned around, pulled away the man's hand, and said to the man seriously, the man seemed to be hungry for more than ten days and nodded desperately when he saw someone giving him food, and the waiter handed the man a bottle, and then said something before leaving the room, Before passing through the peephole, she could clearly see the disdain and sarcasm on the corner of the waiter's mouth. But the man's smile when he held the bottle was as stupid as Fan Jin in the middle of the lift.
"What were they talking about?" She asked Joseph. She didn't understand half of the conversation just now.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I forgot that you don't know French, Chinese girl." Joseph shrugged apologetically and said, "You also know that experimenting with this thing sometimes succeeds and sometimes fails, and everyone's constitution is different, and even the same drug will have different reactions. The medicine used by this guest may have been too heavy, causing a disorder in the central nervous system in his body, the most direct manifestation of which is that his body has a problem controlling pain. In fact, he should stop taking medicine for a while, and the waiter just now came to tell him about it, but he himself disagreed, and he stalked and continued to take medicine. โ
"What happens if I continue to take medication?"
"Wellโ" Joseph pulled a sympathetic sneer, very contradictory, but surprisingly harmonious on his face, "it's about the same as the end of a drug overdose." If this continues, the man will die in less than a week. โ
Her eyes widened.
"Of course, the waiter has also told you the results if you continue to take the medicine, but you can see it, and the gentleman doesn't seem to appreciate it." Joseph combed his beautiful blonde hair with his slender fingers and said.
"What are you trying to do to prolong the lives of these people?" It doesn't seem right to think about it, "Immortality is not an easy task, and it is likely that aging retardation is caused by genes, and it is not so easy to change." "Because longevity does not mean that they do not age, and what Joseph does seems to be not only longevity, but also appearance.
Joseph smiled and nodded, with a little more approval in his eyes, "I like your rationality." โ
"I have one more question." She said, "Steward Qian said that even if they become vampires, they still commit suicide in the end - I don't understand, since the road was chosen by themselves, and they knew what the consequences of embarking on this road would be before they chosen, why couldn't they go on in the end?" โ
"You're asking this question like a philosopher." Josephus said, "You humans are so strange that when you die, you are afraid of death; When you don't die, you're afraid that you won't die. They want immortality because they simply don't understand the true meaning of time stopping at themselves. โ
"It's profound." She stuck out her tongue.
"For some reason, I think you seem to be able to get it." Joseph tilted his head and looked at her.
Is this a compliment to her? She scratched at her hair, not knowing what Joseph was trying to say.
"Let's go, how about going outside?" Joseph looked at his watch and said, "Let's have lunch together at noon?" โ
"Huh?" Don't even stop lunch?
"What? Don't want to? You can have lunch with me, but the guests here can't ask for it. Joseph said jokingly.
"So powerful?" Haha, maybe she'll be hacked to death by those who are jealous of her "treatment".
