Chapter 75: Did You Say I Guessed Right?
Xia Xiu walked slowly on the passage, and when he appeared, many patients and doctors and nurses in the corridor looked at him, and he returned an unusually bright smile at these people, the patients were indifferent to his smile, and the doctors and nurses looked at him with frowns.
Never before has a patient come out of Room 101 who has been able to maintain such a bright smile.
They cast their wary gaze on the number plate on the blonde youth's chest, and when they found that the sign depicted [good] condition, many of them relaxed their frowns, while others remained vigilant.
The blonde youth, on the other hand, stared back at these people without paying attention.
Just as Xia Xiu and these doctors and nurses were staring at each other, a white intelligent machine floated in front of him.
The overall shape of this intelligent machine is very cute, its body presents a futuristic smooth curve, is painted with bright white paint, and the face adopts a large prototype display, on which is a pair of blue eyes, which looks bright and full of loveliness, and looks like two sparkling sapphires.
Under the eyes of the machine, there is a human-like machine mouth, which can smoothly simulate various human expressions, and make smooth and beautiful sounds, and the mechanical arms and legs are designed to be very flexible, as if they are made up of countless independent small pieces, which can move flexibly and freely, so as to achieve various actions and operations. Every detail of the entire machine body has been designed to be very delicate and full of mechanical texture.
[BK-201, welcome to the family of [House of Truth] who help each other. I'm [Cocoa], I'm the mascot here, I'm here to serve you, you can call me by name if you need to, and I'll do my best to help you. 】
The cute Zhengtai sound came out of [Ke Keya], and when it spoke, it especially liked to add a "la" word to each sentence to sell cuteness.
Xia Xiu stopped, his golden eyes glanced up and down at the white intelligent machine, and then said with a sigh:
"The Truth Academy is really advanced and abnormal."
[Yes, [Truth House] is the most advanced spiritual sanatorium in the world!] 】
【(*^▽^*)】
Looking at [Ke Keya] with a happy expression, the corners of the blonde youth's mouth also turned up happily, and he said to [ Ke Ke Ya]:
"Is there really anything that will help me in any way?"
[Of course not, I have a bottom line! ] I'm not going to help you get out of jail, every new patient loves to ask me this question. 】
【(〃'▽'〃)】
"Don't worry, I won't make any excessive requests." Xia Xiu patted [Ke Keya's] round mechanical head familiarly, assuring him that he would not make any ungodly requests.
His right index finger wiggled, touching [Cocoa's] rounded mechanical chin as if he were teasing a puppy's chin.
"When you see me later, just make a snort like a dog."
【(︿)】
"When I see you, I think of my dog, who is as white and obedient as you. Now that I'm too far away from him, I want you to play him so that I can fill the void in my heart. Xia Xiu's expression was contrived, wiping the tears that did not exist in the corners of his eyes.
【⊙︿⊙】
"Won't you do this for me? Isn't it a good family of mutual help? Xia Xiu continued to say to [Kecoya] in a contrived tone.
At this time, many patients looked at [Kecoya], and the blonde young man also looked at it expectantly, and the scene became very quiet for a while.
【⊙﹏⊙】
The blonde youth blinked and looked at it expectantly.
【······ 】
The other patients stared at it intently.
【··· Wang~】
"Good dog, good dog."
"Come, call me a few more times."
Xia Xiu stretched out his hand with a satisfied face and patted [Ke Keya] vigorously, and many patients nearby who couldn't help laughing directly laughed, and many patients also specially surrounded [Ke Keya], waiting for it to continue barking with an expectant expression.
"What are you people doing!!
A sharp voice sounded, and many patients around Xia Xiu and [Ke Keya] couldn't help but tremble when they heard this voice, and Xia Xiu was looking at the horn above, and the sound came from the horn.
At the same time as the sound came from the loudspeaker, the cameras that were originally swinging randomly around the wall were all focused on Xia Xiu's body, and they were staring at it tightly like eyes
"It's almost time to take the medicine, and everyone will go to the drug management office in front of me on time to find the administrator to take the medicine."
After hearing the words of the female voice in the loudspeaker, everyone consciously walked towards the drug management office, and Xia Xiu naturally followed the crowd to the so-called drug management office, the voice in the loudspeaker was probably the so-called head nurse, and he didn't plan to go toe-to-toe with the head nurse now.
Although he can be forced to wake up from his dream at any time, if he wakes up this time, it will be difficult to enter the dream realm again next time, and if he is kicked out this time, with Atliff's caution, she will definitely close most of the dream entrances and sacrifice some dream computing resources in exchange for safety.
In addition to finding the master of Atliff, Xia Xiu's purpose in entering the dream realm is to use the-stirring of the angels of heaven····· Subjective initiative, he wants to add some material to this dream, if he can play it, it will be even better.
When Xia Xiu consciously lined up to follow these patients to get the medicine, the camera also rotated for a while, and after making sure that Xia Xiu was really queuing up honestly, the camera returned to the original random rotation mode again, and the head of [Ke Keya] who stayed in place was turned around three hundred and sixty degrees, and then continued his work.
···········
Division of Drug Administration.
The patients dressed in the same patient number clapped the line in an orderly manner, and each patient here had different faces, some with heavy faces, some stunned, some manic, and some at a loss.
"Next, BK-028."
"Here, take your medicine."
"Juice or water."
"Okay, open your mouth."
"No problem, next."
The nurses handed out the medicines with expressionless faces, repeating the same words over and over again.
Under the influence of the drug, some of the patients were drowsy, some were contemplative, some were fiddling with their fingers, and some were still staring blankly ahead, as if they had become numb to their situation. The whole drug delivery process seems lifeless, as if the patient's thoughts and feelings have been reduced to a mechanical procedure, without the slightest individuality and independence.
Soon, it was Xia Xiu's turn.
"Next, BK-201."
The nurse continued to read the names on the list with a blank face, and when she finished reading, the blonde young man standing behind her walked honestly.
"Here, it's medicine."
The nurse handed Xia Xiu a white lid containing the medicine, and then pointed to the two transparent cups on the table next to her: one cup contained water, and the other cup contained juice.
"Juice or water." The nurse asked Xia Xiufa.
Xia Xiu naturally took the white lid, put the white pill inside into his mouth, and then picked up the juice.
"Of course I chose juice." Xia Xiu smiled at the nurse, then put the cup to his lips, raised his neck, and drank the juice in a big gulp.
Soon, the juice was drunk, Xia Xiu slowly put down the juice cup, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"The juice was delicious."
Xia Xiu turned the empty juice glass upside down. Not a single drop of excess liquid dripped out of it, and he opened his mouth and turned his tongue nimbly to make sure the nurse had swallowed the medicine.
After drinking the medicine, it is time for social activities, during which patients can participate in various social activities organized by the hospital, including group chats, cultural classes, recreational activities, etc.
Xia Xiu naturally wandered around the interior of the [Truth Academy].
The interior of [the House of Truth] is particularly monotonous, with no decoration on the gray-toned walls, and it looks very deserted; Walking into the wards, you can see neatly arranged beds, and in each room there are at least one or three patients, lying there quietly, their eyes full of numbness; The light in the ward is very dim, which makes people feel oppressive and gloomy.
The air in the courtyard was filled with the smell of medicine, with a pungent smell that made people frown. In the ward marked [REDACTED], the occasional coughing and slight moaning sounds make people feel distraught and unable to be at peace.
Coming to the hallway, you can see rows of closed rooms with patients' names and medical record numbers hanging on the door.
At the end of the corridor is the nurses' station, which is a bridge between patients and nurses, responsible for patients' daily care and medical work.
Next to the nurses' station is a pharmacy with medication slips hanging on the walls with the patient's name, the name of the medicine, the dosage and the time of administration.
The range of movement of patients is also strictly restricted, and many places have posted notices saying "patients and dogs are not allowed to enter", which says that they cannot go out unless they are accompanied by a nurse.
There is a small garden with some flowers and trees in the garden, so that the patients can get some spiritual comfort.
However, this small garden is surrounded by a high fence, and patients can only move around in this enclosed space.
Repressive, closed, monotonous, that's what [the House of Truth] feels like, and all the patients are strictly confined to a controlled environment.
Here, any freedom is denied, and helplessness and despair pervade all around.
Xia Xiu came to sit down in front of a bench in the small garden, and the sunlight shone on him from the sky, giving people a warm feeling.
The authenticity of [Dreamland] has always been one of the research focuses of the transcendent academic world, and it has long been proven that you can physically travel to the four regions of [Dreamland] through the gap in space, and there are often passages connecting [Dreamland] in the ghoul lair, and there is a large special point in the central region of the Oretin Empire that links to [Dreamland: Cold Plateau].
Xia Xiu usually had the habit of reading cutting-edge thaumaturgical research reports, but he didn't have an in-depth understanding, after all, there were so many cutting-edge research reports on [Aetheric Ocean] that they could be stacked into a mountain.
"You didn't take the medicine just now, did you?"
Just when Xia Xiu was in a daze, a voice full of affirmation sounded from beside him, and he lazily turned his head to look at the speaker.
A freckled woman with a well-rounded face and a well-rounded facial features was sitting on the other side of the bench, and she looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old.
Julia was staring at the blonde young man beside her at this time, the reason why she said that just now was that she felt that the guy in front of her was her own kind, she actually didn't really see the other party hiding medicine or spitting medicine, the reason why she was so sure was nothing more than wanting to blow up the other party.
The true meaning of deception lies in swearing, so you must be sincere and affirmative when deceiving people.
For Julia, whether the other party hides it or not, it has no effect on herself.
In the face of Julia, who was swearing, the blonde young man yawned boredly, and he said to Julia in a casual tone:
Before he was about to swallow the pill, his tongue secretly moved the pill to the left, hid it in his mouth, and then opened his mouth to signal to the nurse that he had swallowed the pill, and then stepped aside; The nurse noticed nothing unusual and continued to dispense medication to others. ”
Then, he hid the pill on his right cheek and gently crushed it with his tongue, gently dissolving the pill. When the nurse left, she gently spit out the broken pills in her mouth and hid them in her pants pocket. ”
The sun shone brightly overhead, and the soft light cast a faint shadow on the blonde youth's body, his body leaning slightly, immersed himself in the warm sunlight, while his golden eyes stared at the stiff Julia with a cat-and-mouse play.
"The above is the technical operation of dear BK-028, it is really a skilled operation, it seems that you have done this before."
Julia, who was originally full of confidence, completely broke her defense at this time, and her hand subconsciously touched her right pocket, which she secretly opened on the hospital gown, which was very hidden, and ordinary people could not notice the hidden pocket on her right.
Xia Xiu didn't care about the little girl's embarrassment at this time, and asked Julia directly:
"Miss 028, do you have anything to do with me?"
“·······” Julia was still in an unusually awkward situation, so she didn't know how to answer.
"Well, it's inconvenient for you to say it now, so let me guess."
Xia Xiumo rubbed his chin and looked at the silent Julia and continued to speak:
"What kind of resistance group have you formed, and the purpose of this organization is to resist the authority of the head nurse."
“········” Julia remained silent.
The corners of Xia Xiu's mouth curled, and he continued to say casually:
"I guess this organization has a clear program of action, and you can see if it's the following:
One: Proximity to Key Figures: The organization attempts to approach the head nurse, or other person with a lot of power, to get more information in order to better understand [the House of Truth] and look for its weaknesses.
2. Forming Alliances: Organizations need to connect with other patients, find allies, and plan joint actions, such as launching a collective protest or escaping.
Three: Leverage Intelligence: The organization needs to try to get more information, understand how [the House of Truth] works, and look for opportunities to dismantle the system from within.
4. Avoid Thought Correctors: If someone in the organization is considered to be a problem patient or a heretic, they need to avoid being discovered by the thought correctors and keep a low profile as much as possible. ”
Julia's face turned white at this time, and the blonde young man asked her with a warm smile:
"Did you say I guessed right?"
