Chapter 158 Jishi Medical University 16

Letting the Frankenstein professor remain in his strange kneeling position, Yu Naixin sensed that he was indeed cooperating with her willingly this time, and she had about five minutes to use him.

Yu Naixin had become more and more familiar with this method, and it didn't take more than five minutes. About three minutes later, Yu Naixin put her hand down.

Yu Naixin's expression was rather subtle.

Those three terrifying rumors she had previously heard from the NPC sister—she knew the truth about them all in the Frankenstein Professor's completely unreserved memories.

The completion criterion for this instance is "to investigate and find out the truth about at least one terrifying rumor." She has now exceeded the requirement by investigating and finding out the truth about all the terrifying rumors. Can she pass the level directly?

This is Yu Naixin's first time participating in an investigative reality show. In the past, she had always won over all the guests in the show until she had the highest level of favorability, and the show would automatically end, or she would just have to survive the deadline to finish the show. She had never experienced a situation where she had already met the end conditions ahead of time.

After all, the time allotted for the previous episodes was quite short, while "Jishi Medical University" had at least a week before the deadline. However, Yu Naixin learned the answers to all the puzzles in less than four hours after entering the show.

So the question is, where does she submit her answer?

Based on Professor Frankenstein's past memories, only when "Saving Life Medical University" was first launched did a few program guests achieve a final purification level of 50% to 60%. The highest record was a female guest who reached 72%. Afterwards, as the number of episodes of "Saving Life Medical University" increased, the difficulty of the entire program also increased.

In addition, with the increasing size of the program venue and the constant changes in information, in a situation quite similar to the one Yu Naixin is currently experiencing, very few of the program guests have managed to leave "Jishi Medical University" alive, and not a single one has managed to uncover the truth behind the terrifying rumors.

Yu Naixin couldn't refer to the way the guests submitted their answers in older episodes, and there were no precedents for similar episodes. Even Professor Frankenstein himself didn't know how to get the show's guests to accept the answers.

Yu Naixin inquired about the priest's folding fan, the only person who might know about it, through the consciousness channel.

The priest folding fan was silent for a moment before telling Yu Naixin, "Miss Yu, the requirements for solving the mystery in this kind of investigation-type dungeon program are much higher than those in ordinary dungeon programs. According to the normal process, you should follow the clues that are gradually released in the dungeon and finally determine the answer."

"By then, it will be close to the deadline of the dungeon program, and the dungeon will naturally provide you with a reasonable scenario and opportunity to submit the answer."

"The guest judges' understanding of the show's episodes is limited to the 'existing' parts; they are also unaware of the 'unexisted' parts. Because no guest judge has yet figured out what will happen after the truth of the current episode's situation is revealed, the Frankenstein's monster professor doesn't know how to submit an answer either."

"You skipped the entire reasoning process and arrived at the answer directly. This is simply... I can say with certainty that no other guest on the entire 'Heartbeat 1000%' show, including all its past guests, has ever been able to do this to such an extent. The production team could never have imagined that such a bug could exist..."

Yu Naixin didn't quite agree with this statement: "The mechanism that allows the guest to become a special spiritual artifact to follow the guest at the cost of all their life and spiritual power when they have enough favor is something that was originally created by 'Heartbeat 1000%.' The White Bone Scholar's spiritual power coefficient is less than 100, so how is it a bug that I used the Jade White Bone Mahjong?"

She was clearly working diligently to conquer the challenges of the show without violating any rules. Even if you say she was cheating, it wasn't this kind of cheat. Her cheat was clearly a simulator personally provided by the show's behind-the-scenes manipulator.

Priest's Folding Fan: "..."

The priest, his folding fan almost choked with emotion, cried out, "My lord, the bug I was referring to wasn't just the mahjong set!"

"When you were choosing your favorite male guest in the waiting area, you made a stunning entrance that startled both of them. You entered all by yourself—even if you include my ride, you could be considered a lone wolf—taking a path that no one had ever taken before."

"Then you went to the laboratory building and made the male guest afraid to meet you directly. You also overturned the puzzle he had painstakingly created, along with the person who created it, so that he dared not have any other thoughts in front of you and was willing to be manipulated by you."

"Finally, we still need the mahjong artifact you obtained before several dungeon shows, which you haven't even used yet. The Jade White Bone Mahjong is used to control the opponent. You even researched and developed a special method to indirectly obtain the opponent's memories by controlling their mind, and then successfully implemented it..."

"This entire process is just so buggy! Not to mention the whole thing, even if you break it down into individual steps, no one but you could do any of them!"

The priest with the folding fan concluded: "You are a humanoid walking bug in 'Heartbeat 1000%'!"

Yu Naixin: "...?"

Yu Naixin clicked her tongue in amazement: "You used to call me 'Miss Yu,' but this is the first time you've called me 'Master.' I feel like I've returned to the Qing Dynasty. Should you be wearing a eunuch's hat on your head?"

The priest with the folding fan: "???"

Its master—or rather, its owner—has such a peculiar thought process again!

However, it was only after Yu Naixin reminded it that the Priest Fan realized that it no longer only referred to Yu Naixin as "master" in its heart, but also said it aloud naturally.

After all... that's Yu Naixin!

Isn't it only natural to call her "master"?

Although the process was a bit tortuous, the Priest's Folding Fan did not forget why Yu Naixin had initially contacted it. It provided its own suggested answer: "You may need to wait until the deadline is approaching before you can submit the answer to end this episode."

Yu Naixin: "..."

Yu Naixin remained silent.

Okay.

[Why did the scene suddenly freeze? Ever since "Yao Ling" exposed the disguise of the stitched-together skeleton specimen, the pace had been incredibly fast and exciting. Even those two minutes when "Yao Ling" was alone in the dissection lab looking for the lab coat were incredibly tense. Why does it suddenly feel like everything has settled down?!]

[“Yao Ling”’s expressionless face as she plays a silent puppet show with her fingers is so captivating! I haven’t had enough yet, can you please not stop!]

[Congratulations to the female guest on the show "Heartbeat 1000%"! You have received 18 Sweet Coins from a viewer with the ID "Can I Use a Tip to Urge Updates?"!]

[Damn, I just realized my emotional threshold has reached the point where I can give a tip! I was so engrossed in the live stream that I completely forgot about this!]

[Congratulations to the female guest on the show "Heartbeat 1000%"! You have received 15 Sweet Coins from a viewer with the ID "Ordinary Passing By Viewer"!]

[I just zoomed in on "Yao Ling's" face to its maximum size, and her beauty is simply breathtaking. I also noticed that she actually has subtle changes in her facial expressions—sometimes serious, sometimes confused, sometimes helpless. Could any "Yao Ling" fans explain to me what she's doing? These instantaneous reactions make it seem like she's having a conversation with someone in her head?]

[Uh, sorry, even as a long-time viewer who's been watching since the first dungeon episode, I'm not very familiar with the Great Demon King's skills... The Great Demon King's previous three dungeon episodes were all too rushed, except for a brief respite in the "Xiawei Temple" illusion, they were all so fast it was dizzying to watch...]

[She actually managed to hold the Frankenstein's monster captive for a full three minutes. During that time, the Frankenstein's monster didn't offer any resistance whatsoever; he didn't even have the slightest bit of basic consciousness! He was completely at the mercy of "Yao Ling"!]

[I previously thought that "Yao Ling" was able to dismantle the dissection lab solely due to her powerful special spiritual artifacts, but now I've been thoroughly slapped in the face. The Stitched Monster has a spiritual power coefficient starting at 260! Even if it didn't resist subjectively, objectively, if "Yao Ling's" spiritual power coefficient were significantly lower than the Stitched Monster's, she couldn't have controlled it for so long, and so thoroughly! Just how high is her spiritual power coefficient?!]

After researching what she wanted to know, Yu Naixin put the Frankenstein's monster professor aside.

She walked to the side of the collapsed wall and looked at the large banyan tree opposite.

Yu Naixin discovered that not only had the wall inside the window been completely cleared away, but even the barriers outside the window, which were supposed to have been set up by the banyan tree spirit youth, had disappeared without a trace.

Yu Naixin raised her eyebrows slightly.

As expected, the banyan tree spirit youth was watching her every move in the dissection lab.

Based on Professor Frankenstein's memories, Yu Naixin was certain that her first impression of the young banyan tree spirit was correct; this guest, whose main setting was the center and surrounding area of ​​the banyan tree, was indeed a socially awkward person.

Normally, the young man who is like a banyan tree spirit will stay close to the big banyan tree as much as possible, staying at home and never venturing out. He is not particularly enthusiastic about competing with the Frankenstein's monster professor for program guests.

He was able to achieve a roughly 50/50 record against the Frankenstein's monster, partly because of his handsome face and refined demeanor. Compared to the more frightening Frankenstein's monster, it was easy for people to choose him as their ideal male guest.

The other half is that Professor Frankenstein made things so bad for the show's guests that, whether for the purpose of escaping or for the purpose of maintaining balance, they could only run to him.

It can be said that it is entirely due to the contrast provided by its competitors.

There's a reason why "Heartbeat 1000%" puts the banyan tree spirit youth and the Frankenstein's monster professor in the same episode.

The banyan tree spirit youth was the type of person who avoided interacting with others as much as possible. Now that he saw Yu Naixin had so easily turned the Frankenstein's monster professor into this state, he shut the doors and windows tightly and refused to show his face no matter what.

At the same time, he removed all the isolation measures on his side. Anyway, it would only take Yu Naixin a moment to destroy these things, so he might as well do it himself first to show his goodwill to Yu Naixin.

After all, Yu Naixin had looked at the banyan tree with great interest several times before, so she must be interested in this place.

With her vision no longer obstructed, Yu Naixin was finally able to see the aerial roots of the banyan tree at night. However, unfortunately, whether it was intentional on the part of the banyan tree spirit or not, she couldn't see any "blood red" color at all.

Even the soil at the foot of the banyan tree is perfectly normal.

Yu Naixin stared at the huge banyan tree, her eyes filled with amusement.

From the moment she saw the large banyan tree outside the window, Yu Naixin really wanted the three guests to get together.

On the first day of "Jishi Medical University," if the young man who is the banyan tree spirit is not chosen as the male guest of interest, he can only interact with the Frankenstein professor. The young man who is the banyan tree spirit will have to appear three days later in accordance with the program team's design and arrangement of the scenario.

At this point in time, it's only natural for the young people from the Banyan Tree Spirit to stay at their home ground, and Yu Naixin has no way to force her way in despite the double obstacles of the rules and the homeowner's disapproval.

However, she still wanted to try again.

"Mr. Banyan Tree?" Yu Naixin cupped her hands to her mouth and called out loudly, "Aren't you really going to come and check on your neighbor's lair? With me here, your neighbor will definitely welcome you over—"

Why is "Yao Ling" still so determined to bring the banyan tree spirit over? Does she really want to play Dou Dizhu (a card game) with the two guest characters from the instance?!

[Playing Dou Dizhu, hahaha, but if it's her, it seems like she might actually be thinking that way, hahaha!]

[I'm dying of laughter! "With me around, your neighbors will be very welcoming to your visit"—what the heck?! With you there, would that Frankenstein's monster professor dare not welcome you?! He'd have to grin eight hundred teeth to entertain that banyan tree spirit youth!]

[You know what, the Frankenstein monster really does seem to have more than 800 teeth in its mouth. Those densely packed, tiny teeth almost triggered my trypophobia the first time I saw them!]

This "Yao Ling" is truly... ruthless and deadly when she strikes, yet she can also play dumb with perfect timing and wit, blurring the lines between truth and falsehood. Even the most skilled cultivators can easily fall into her trap if they're not careful.

[No, no, no, this veteran viewer can explain: the little witch wasn't pretending to be stupid; she genuinely believed it. It's normal for someone of this level to have a slightly peculiar thought process. ]

However, the young man from the banyan tree spirit did not respond to Yu Naixin's enthusiasm.

The banyan tree was quiet in the night, with the occasional gentle breeze causing its branches and aerial roots to sway gently.

It seems to be just an ordinary tree that can't understand human speech.

Yu Naixin shook her head regretfully: "Hey, what's wrong with you two guest stars in this episode? Am I a guest star or are you guys the guests?"

There's no reason for a guest on a side show to avoid the main guests.

When Yu Naixin withdrew the spiritual energy thread she had inserted into the Stitched Monster Professor, there were still about two minutes left before the Jade Bone Mahjong tile expired. Without Yu Naixin's control, the Stitched Monster Professor's consciousness would gradually recover at a relatively slow pace.

Having confirmed that she wouldn't be seeing the banyan tree spirit youth today, Yu Naixin was too lazy to stay any longer. She turned around, brushed past the fallen body of the stitched-together professor, and walked out of the laboratory.

I'd rather go back to my dorm and sleep.

Before leaving, Yu Naixin gave the paper dog a big command, instructing it to hide along with the priest's folding fan and continue to follow her in the dark.

The paper puppy wagged its tail happily and stuck to Yu Naixin's heel. When it passed the Frankenstein's monster professor, it grinned at the guest before disappearing from the live stream screen with satisfaction.

[Oh my god, this dog is so cute! I don't remember any show guest having a similar one. Could it also be a special spirit artifact of "Yao Ling"?!]

[Yes, let me count the special magical artifacts on the Great Demon King. The fan, the puppy, and the mahjong set appear quite often. In the last event, "Xiawei Temple," two more appeared: a red lotus lantern and a blue stone token. However, the Great Demon King hasn't used them yet, so we don't know their effects. Currently, there are only five in total.]

【What do you mean "just" these five?! Are special spiritual artifacts some kind of common street-side cabbage?! Normally, a guest on a show would be incredibly lucky to get even one! Even top-tier figures like "Jade Blade" have participated in fourteen dungeon shows, including "Ruyi Opera House," and she's only ever obtained two special spiritual artifacts! One of them was even destroyed in "Ruyi Opera House"!】

[The "Ruyi Opera House" truly lives up to its reputation as a "spirit artifact crusher"... It consumes far too much of both spirit artifacts and ordinary spiritual power items. This "Yao Ling" will have to face this tribulation sooner or later. I wonder how many of her many special spirit artifacts can withstand it.]

On the way, Yu Naixin didn't forget to take the white coat that was still hanging on the arm of the Frankenstein professor.

To facilitate cutting, separating, and concealment, this white coat was specially made by Professor Frankenstein. The material contains substances that can resonate with spiritual energy. Yu Naixin only needs to extend a few threads of spiritual energy to take the white coat without touching Professor Frankenstein.

Using the same method, Yu Naixin put the missing piece of fabric back in its place.

At this point, the white coat finally took on a complete shape.

Throughout the entire process, Yu Naixin performed with remarkable ease, drawing admiration from the viewers in the live stream for her exceptional skill.

After Yu Naixin's figure disappeared outside the door, the Frankenstein professor on the ground slowly opened his eyes.

As Yu Naixin's footsteps faded into the distance, the Stitched-together professor didn't dare make any unnecessary movements, pretending that he was still unconscious.

This terrifying female guest... even if there's only the slightest possibility, he doesn't want to provoke her again!

Professor Frankenstein's biggest expectation for this episode is that this menacing figure will quickly pass through and leave.

most……

The Frankenstein professor sensed the presence of the banyan tree opposite the empty wall, his deep gray pupils turning a blood-red hue.

Ideally, the young banyan tree spirit would also taste the bitterness he had endured!

**********

Yu Naixin walked briskly downstairs and saw Lin Yuting, who had disappeared halfway, outside the laboratory building.

"Naixin!" Lin Yuting greeted Yu Naixin with a normal expression, as if they had just come here to catch up on an experimental class.

She also put on a brand new, ordinary white coat, made of average material and a little wrinkled, after Yu Naixin received the white coat.

The key detail of this episode is that the roommates of the show will only get their own white coats when the guests receive them.

That's how NPCs are set up; they don't have any "personal will." Yu Naixin, as if nothing had happened, approached Lin Yuting, and the two chatted and laughed as they returned the way they came.

Midway through, Yu Naixin glanced at Lin Yuting subconsciously and noticed that all the buttons on Lin Yuting's white coat were neatly fastened.

[Could "Yao Ling" really be a medical student? I've only ever seen this kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder in medical professionals!]

[Even his acting is this good! It's been a long time since we've seen a guest like "Yao Ling" on "Heartbeat 1000%" who is so versatile and flawless.]

The Great Demon King is always kind to innocent NPCs. As long as you don't provoke her, she's actually a very gentle and cute little girl.

Calling her "Great Demon King" makes your statement very unconvincing!

When Yu Naixin and Lin Yuting returned to dormitory 201, the room was empty, and their other roommate, Li Yuanyuan, had not yet returned.

Yu Naixin had already obtained all the spoilers from the Frankenstein's monster professor, and knew that Li Yuanyuan was probably still devoutly praying and worshipping at the big banyan tree, and had also disappeared automatically when the guests met, just like Lin Yuting.

Yu Naixin didn't pay much attention to this NPC. It was only after she saw Lin Yuting sitting at the table and playing on her phone that she belatedly realized that she also had a phone to use in this instance!

Including the time spent in the two special illusions at Xiawei Temple and the rest room, Yu Naixin hadn't touched a mobile phone for several years. When she picked up her phone at her bedside before going to the laboratory building, she didn't think about it in this way; she simply used it as a clock and a flashlight.

Although this phone is almost exactly as it was when it left the factory, it comes pre-installed with WeChat! It should have internet access!

Yu Naixin immediately sat down in her chair, turned on her phone, and found that there was indeed campus Wi-Fi available to connect to! The phone's default browser also worked!

She can surf the internet now!

[Hahaha, Yao Ling's smile is so wide she can't suppress it. It seems the background of her previous episodes didn't have modern internet.]

Considering the year "Heartbeat 1000%" aired, it's not very likely that it would encounter a program segment with a modern online background. New segments have been becoming increasingly rare in recent years...

[There are fewer and fewer new guests on the show, but the audience is growing... Sigh, to be honest, I'm really happy to see such a strong and dazzling guest as "Yao Ling". Currently, the top guest, "Yu Ren", is impressive, but still far from being a legend. If no other guest can achieve that, then...]

[Of all the guests on "Heartbeat 1000%", only three have achieved legendary status. Their biggest commonality is their highly proactive and aggressive approach to completing the challenges. "Jade Blade," on the other hand, is purely about using softness to overcome hardness—a style evident in the nickname given to her by the production team. However, "Jade Blade's" accumulated experience in all aspects makes her undeniably the top guest on the show. If we're talking about the guest most likely to achieve legendary status, it has to be her.]

"Dead Trees Reborn," "Surging Waves," "Nightmare"... these three who achieved legendary status are indeed the kind of big shots who control the overall situation and move with unstoppable force, which "Yao Ling" perfectly embodies. However, many amazing program guests are also short-lived. "Yao Ling's" style is too unconventional and too aggressive, unlike the other three who are more steady and methodical. Whether she can achieve legendary status depends on how far she can go.

I haven't seen those three top-tier contestants' shows; I only know about them through hearsay. But watching "Yao Ling's" show, I immediately sensed a difference from other show guests—a completely overwhelming level of power. If "Yao Ling" can't be considered a god, I really can't think of anyone else who can. She has already exceeded my highest expectations of the capabilities of "show guests."

The amount of information revealed in the chats of regular viewers in the title zone is incomparable to that in the ordinary zone.

However, some viewers' attention was entirely focused on Yu Naixin's face.

[Yao Ling's smile is just too beautiful! A perfect face from every angle! She looks good no matter which angle you adjust the screen to!]
