On the afternoon of the second Sunday of October, the section chief handed over to Li Xin the summary data collected through the Municipal Health Bureau of Zhongzhou City about "cases that suddenly fainted after more than 12 o'clock at night and were sent to the hospital for examination". "This one. For the personnel who participated in the verification this time, the section chief did not give them the truth for confidentiality reasons, and finally obtained 126 copies of Li Xin's emergency case data.

Because the National Day is a long holiday, the National Security Bureau did not have a rest on Saturdays and Sundays last week, and went to work normally.

On Sunday afternoon, Li Xin began to check the information, eliminating cases that were obviously due to sudden fainting due to physical illness; Due to the large number of cases, Li Xin could not finish checking them on Sunday, and continued to check these cases after going to work on Monday of the third week of October.

Some of these cases were obviously confirmed, and Li Xin directly eliminated them; Some are over 60 years old and have significantly weakened physique, even if the cause cannot be confirmed in the case, Li Xin has directly eliminated it, he feels that such people will not be able to persist even if they enter the dream game, and they should not be selected as the candidates to be brought into the dream game; For children under the age of 14, Li Xin is also directly disregarded for the same reason; He didn't think that these minors or seniors would be selected for the dream game, and his consideration was due to the fact that the members of the "Dream Walker" group were all energetic young people.

For those who suddenly fainted and were sent to the hospital and woke up quickly, Li Xin also directly eliminated them, because compared with the situation of Shi Qingsheng fainting and being sent to the hospital last time, Li Xin felt that these cases that woke up quickly did not meet the conditions of "dreamwalkers".

After the case screening, Li Xin still had 5 cases left in his hands, these 5 people are four men and one woman, one of them suddenly fainted at about 12 o'clock at night, and two men fainted at 1 o'clock at night, and the other man fainted at about 2 o'clock; The cause of the sudden fainting of these 5 people was not found in the hospital, and they were in good health; They all woke up after 4 a.m.

Because I don't know the contact information of these 5 people, Li Xin began to search on the Internet in the bureau according to the name, gender and age of the patients on the case, it should be that there are too many people with the same name and surname now, and there are several people in the search results of Li Xin of similar age in each name, because the current 5 people who have been selected are all examined in the hospital in the city, Li Xin in line with the principle of being close to the nearest and not far away, first screened out some people, and if you don't find the person you are looking for, then ask the rest of the people. In order to find out these 5 people, Li Xin listed the work units and home addresses of 17 people this time. The least is 2 people with the same name, and the most has 5 people with the same name.

After Li Xin reported his plan to the section chief to find someone, he planned to go out on Tuesday morning to inquire one by one. It is said that Li Xin can sit in the office and inquire about the phone number of the person being queried through the phone number of the person being queried's work unit, and then he can ask on the phone; However, Li Xin felt that it was better to observe the person being questioned in person, and if it was only implemented by phone, it was very likely that the real result would not be obtained because of poor communication with the person being queried.

After listening to Chen Xiangxiang talk about the tampering of the personal memory information of the citizens of the Interstellar Confederation in the private chat on QQ in the private chat on QQ on Monday night, Li Xin asked Chen Xiangxiang in detail about the relevant content he heard, and the next morning Li Xin returned to Corey to print out the relevant QQ chat content and submitted a report to the section chief, Li Xin felt that this was definitely an important information, and it was not important how the Interstellar Confederation dealt with this matter in the end. The important thing is that the Interstellar Confederation already has the technology to allow the lives of citizens to continue indefinitely.

Then Li Xin began the investigation work he planned yesterday, and the order of his visit was to be carried out in the order of the coma time recorded by the suspected person in the hospital, and his intuition was that the more coma time he had, the more hopeful he was to be able to enter the dream game.

Li Xin's first stop was to go to Zhongzhou Machine Tool Factory to inquire about a woman named Li Chunyan, there were two people in Li Xin's list of 17 people with this name, Li Xin came to find this one first, and the other was a technical school graduate. The reason why this is considered is because Li Xin thinks that when the dream game chooses the dreamwalker who is brought into the dream game, it should choose a high-IQ person, and the average high-IQ person should also have a high mental strength.

After Li Xin drove to the factory, he went directly to the personnel department of the branch registered in the household registration book to inquire, and the staff of the personnel department told him that Li Chunyan worked in the technical department; It went well, and Li Xin met Li Chunyan, who was working in front of the computer, in the office of the technical department.

When Li Chunyan asked Li Xin what was wrong, Li Xin said that she was doing a return visit and showed the other party the copy of the work card of the Health Bureau. Li Chunyan took Li Xin's work card and looked at it carefully, got up and said, "Let's go out and talk." ”

The two went out to find a quiet place, and Li Chunyan asked, "What's the matter?" Li Xin asked: "May I ask if you were sent to XX Hospital in May this year due to a sudden fainting?" "Yes." "That's right, we wanted to do a return visit, but we didn't find out what the reason was at that time; Have you ever felt unwell since then? Or is it something that feels unusual? Li Chunyan's face was a little nervous, and after thinking about it carefully, she said in an eager tone: "I don't feel any discomfort, is it that the Health Bureau has found something, and what kind of examination needs to be arranged?" ”

Li Xin smiled and explained: "It's not what you think, the Health Bureau has no plan to arrange an inspection for the time being, just because your situation did not find out the results at that time, this time it is a return visit, mainly to find out if there is any new situation." Li Xin then asked, "How are you sleeping?" Do you dream a lot? Li Chunyan thought about it again and said: "My sleep condition should be good, I usually rest regularly, and I don't stay up late." Occasionally, I have dreams. ”

Li Xin continued to ask: "Can you remember what kind of dream you had when you woke up?" "I can't remember, I basically forgot it when I woke up, but the dream was definitely done." "When we looked at the cases of other patients, we found that people often dreamed like they were participating in an online game, but they had never played an online game, and they themselves wondered why they had such dreams."

Li Chunyan thought about it carefully and said: "I really can't remember the dream I had now, and I don't know if it's similar to an online game, and I never play an online game, I've seen others play it, and I probably know what an online game is." Li Xin said: "Can we leave each other's phone calls, you go back and dream again, remember to tell me if it is a dream similar to an online game, which is also a help for our research topic; And if you have something to ask, you can also call me. ”

"Okay, I'll be sure to contact you when I dream again." After the two left each other's phone calls, Li Xin said goodbye.
