Chapter 123 Chapter 123 [Entering the Hospital]
At the moment the electric shock began, the pain Lin Yimu felt was not as intense as he had expected. It was even less powerful than the level 8 electric shock he felt yesterday, which made Lin Yimu a little puzzled.
"001, why is the pain this time not as severe as yesterday?" Lin Yimu asked in confusion, frowning.
However, 001, which used to answer upon hearing Lin Yimu's voice, did not speak immediately, which made Lin Yimu a little puzzled. He calmed down and looked at the place where 001 usually stayed, and found that it was not there.
Seeing the empty mind, Lin Yimu was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that the level 9 electric shock just now was not as painful as the level 8 electric shock. Lin Yimu's heart gradually sank, and he shouted in his heart with some worry: "001, 001? Where are you?"
Lin Yimu searched his mind but couldn't find the shadow of 001. His anxious face looked ugly.
After a long while, when Lin Yimu was getting anxious, the voice of 001 sounded in his mind, but the voice was very low and not as lively as before.
"Host, you are so worried about me. I am suddenly touched."
Hearing 001's voice, Lin Yimu's anxious state of mind recovered a little, but he also heard the weakness in 001's voice, and did not pay attention to its sudden joke, but asked worriedly: "How are you? Did you do something when I was suffering from the electric shock just now? Why can't I see your virtual form now?"
001 listened to the host's anxious and worried voice, but it was calm after returning to its original state. Instead, it was in a mood to comfort Lin Yimu: "During your electric shock, I used energy to reduce your pain sensation. Relatively speaking, I no longer have the energy to maintain my virtual image. But don't worry, this is not a big deal for me. Once you complete the previous task, I will be able to recover a little."
Lin Yimu listened to 001's calm consolation, but he didn't feel good in his heart. He said with a difficult voice: "001, you shouldn't do this. I persisted for the past few days. You should believe me."
001 didn't have as many thoughts as Lin Yimu, instead he said with a smile: "Don't worry, as long as you work hard to complete the task in the future, I will recover. Losing a little energy won't have any effect on me. On the contrary, if you really can't hold on, it will affect me."
After listening to 001's words, Lin Yimu did not continue the topic. Instead, he was silent for a while and said, "Don't worry, I will work hard to complete the task and make you recover as soon as possible."
Now that he had made the promise, Lin Yimu did not just talk about it, but worked harder than ever before. Even if the laboratory did not need them now, Lin Yimu would still drag Zhou Heyu to the laboratory and stay there for the whole day, determined to calculate the correct viscosity data and operating data of the turbulence model.
The next day was the last day that Lin Yimu would receive the electric shock, and it was also the highest level that the system was set to. This made 001, who had turned into a small ball, very worried. He was afraid that Lin Yimu would fail at this last level. He even regretted that he should not have used up his energy yesterday.
Listening to 001's words of self-blame and regret, Lin Yimu was moved and at the same time found it funny. This 001 was really... Even though his appearance had changed, his nature hadn't changed at all, and he seemed unreliable at all.
"You just thought of it, little fool? But even so, you can't use your energy to help me today. You have to believe that I can get through it on my own." Lin Yimu looked at the spherical system in his mind with amusement, and finally, fearing that it would do something to hurt itself again, he reminded it with concern.
Hearing this, 001's original plan to secretly help again was also dispelled under Lin Yimu's serious eyes. He quickly controlled his body to shake up and down and said, "I know, I know. Don't worry, I won't use energy unless it's absolutely necessary."
Hearing the system's words that it had a backup plan, Lin Yimu narrowed his eyes and did not expose it. Instead, he locked 001 in a small dark room the moment the electric shock began. This was also to prevent 001 from making decisions on his own like last time.
However, after locking 001 into the small dark room, Lin Yi Mu experienced for the first time the pain that was worse than death. The pain of the tenth-level electric shock was like a hit on the soul, which made Lin Yi Mu, who had been mentally prepared, a little unbearable. If it weren't for the fact that there was another Zhou Heyu in the dormitory, Lin Yi Mu would have cried out in pain.
However, even if Lin Yimu tried to endure it, he could not avoid groaning. His face even turned as pale as gold paper. Cold sweat kept rolling down his forehead due to the pain. His eyes were a little dull and he looked like he would faint in the next second.
Lin Yi Mu was indeed in a trance for a moment. If it weren't for his strong willpower that allowed him to hold on at the critical moment, Lin Yi Mu might have fainted by now, and then he would really have become the fool that the system said.
The electric shock lasted for half an hour. Lin Yimu finally couldn't bear the pain anymore and couldn't help but scream out. Although the sound was not loud, it still alarmed Zhou Heyu who was in the same dormitory.
Zhou Heyu turned on the dormitory light and came to Lin Yimu's bedside. He was already a little worried. After seeing Lin Yimu's pale face and cold sweat, he asked with even more worry: "Xiaomu, what's wrong with you? Where do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want to go to the school clinic?"
Lin Yimu was concentrating all his attention on resisting the pain and preventing himself from fainting, and he had no energy to pay attention to Zhou Heyu who was beside the bed.
And because Lin Yi Mu had his eyes closed the whole time, Zhou Heyu thought that Lin Yi Mu had fainted from the pain and was unable to answer him at all.
So after not getting a response, Zhou Heyu was worried that something might happen to Lin Yi Mu if he delayed any further, so he dialed 120 directly. When the ambulance drove into the campus, it even alarmed a group of night owl students in the dormitory building. Even the teachers in the classrooms and dormitories heard the noise and came to check.
Lin Yimu's last electroshock therapy ended with him being taken away by an ambulance, which alarmed a group of teachers and students at Xi'an Jiaotong University. During this process, Lin Yimu had been struggling with the pain caused by the electric shock and had no time to spare the mind to stop anything from happening. He could only endure the pain while being carried into the ambulance by medical staff.
Before getting into the ambulance, Lin Yimu distracted himself by thinking about everyone's reactions to the news tomorrow, and was even worried whether he would become a hot topic again because of this.
However, thinking of the purpose of his visit to Northwestern Polytechnical University, Lin Yimu felt relieved. The experiment they were participating in this time was confidential, and he thought someone should be able to handle the matter. It would just be a waste of the hospital's resources, and he was afraid that nothing would be found out by then.
Lin Yi Mu was right. After Lin Yi Mu was sent to the hospital, the Ministry of State Security personnel following him suppressed the news, and the doctors in the hospital were unable to find out what was wrong with Lin Yi Mu's body. However, to be on the safe side, Lin Yi Mu agreed to stay in the hospital for observation for a few days after being persuaded by Professor Zheng and the doctor who arrived early in the morning. He would be discharged only after being confirmed that there was no problem.
Lin Yi Mu's incident this time also made the people from the National Security Bureau very worried about Lin Yi Mu's health, so after receiving the news, Zhang Hechang flew to Xi'an as soon as possible. After everyone who came to visit Lin Yi Mu left, he came to Lin Yi Mu's ward.
Seeing Lin Yimu leaning against the bedside reading a book, Zhang Hechang finally let go of the worry he had been carrying all the way. But he still couldn't help asking, "How is your health? I heard that the doctor couldn't find out what the problem is?"
Lin Yimu put down the book in his hand after Zhang Hechang came in, looked at the man in front of him who looked worried, and said with a relaxed expression: "Nothing is wrong here. You should know that nothing will happen to me."
Hearing Lin Yimu's confident words, Zhang Hechang couldn't help but frowned in disapproval, and looked at Lin Yimu seriously and said, "Nothing? Then tell me, why did you go to the hospital this time?"
Seeing Zhang Hechang frowning and looking at him seriously, waiting for an answer, Lin Yimu felt that such an expression was not suitable for him, and couldn't help but said with a smile: "Your baby face is not suitable for such a serious expression. Don't worry, I'm fine, I just accepted some advice and got a little electric shock."
Lin Yimu really didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. Although there were risks, everything was over now and he had survived it. So everything was no longer a problem and there was no need to exaggerate how serious it was to make people worry.
However, Lin Yimu didn't think anything was wrong. Zhang Hechang was shocked after hearing what Lin Yimu said. Seeing Lin Yimu's nonchalant attitude, his tone became heavier. "What do you mean you just got an electric shock? If it was a minor electric shock, you would have been sent to the hospital. Do you know that your safety is no longer just your business? Many people in the country are looking forward to making Z country develop better. Everyone is also looking forward to the changes you will bring. Otherwise, why do you think we have been following you closely to protect you and even solve so many problems for you? No resources of the country can be wasted on insignificant personnel. You should know this."
Lin Yimu listened to Zhang Hechang's ruthless words, and he knew in his heart that what he said was right, but he would not and could not tell him his true situation, so he could only listen in silence.
Zhang Hechang looked at Lin Yimu's silence and didn't know whether he had listened to him or not. However, thinking that Lin Yimu was still young, what he had just said was indeed a bit hurtful.
So after a while, Zhang Hechang suppressed his worry and anger, and said slowly: "Okay, I won't tell you so much nonsense. Before you do anything in the future, especially when it comes to your own safety and health, you must think twice before you act."
"I understand. There won't be a next time." Lin Yimu looked at the person who had calmed down and assured him.
Afterwards, Zhang Hechang expressed his concern for Lin Yimu a few more times, and the two of them unknowingly talked about the experiment that Lin Yimu was currently participating in. This made Lin Yimu's heart become excited. If everyone had not asked him to stay in the hospital for a few days for observation, Lin Yimu would have wanted to rush back to the laboratory to continue his research, so that he could solve the problem as soon as possible, complete the task and restore 001 as soon as possible.
Lin Yimu's idea was not feasible for the time being. After Zhang Hechang left, Lin Yimu continued to read the professional books he asked Zhou Heyu to bring in the ward. Sometimes, unable to bear the smell of disinfectant in the ward, Lin Yimu would go to the back garden of the hospital to sit and read.
On this day, Lin Yi Mu was sitting in the back garden of the hospital, reading a book intently. Suddenly, a shadow appeared above his head, blocking his light, causing Lin Yi Mu to frown in disgust.
