Chapter 160 Cleaning the Hospital Building
During breakfast, You Xi had already roughly asked all the questions she wanted to know.
What she was most worried about was whether the sudden appearance of the system in the mission world would cause something bad to happen. His particularly weak appearance was disturbing.
"It will consume some energy, and I can't use my abilities too much. Of course, this body is originally weak..." After the taskers of the system tower enter, the health status of the taskers will cover the health status of the natives. This is the basic setting of the system tower, and it is also to give all taskers a fair starting line.
But in this way, the arrival of the taskers is almost a crushing blow to the natives.
Some people's consciousness will detach in an instant, completely leaving the body. This part of consciousness, or consciousness, will be received by the system tower, and after choosing to bind, it will become a new tasker and enter a new mission world.
Some people's consciousness will persist in the body, but different consequences will be produced due to different actions and behaviors of the tasker.
For example, after the tasker enters, he kills the family of the aboriginals to reduce trouble. The consciousness of this aboriginal will suffer a heavy blow and slowly dissipate because he cannot accept the facts.
There are also a small number of aboriginal consciousnesses that will always exist, that is, enter a dormant state, and after the tasker leaves, they have the opportunity to wake up with willpower and take back the body from the mechanical consciousness.
For example, Qu Yichen in the Storm World.
"So, why did you suddenly enter the mission world this time?" She was still shocked by this incident, especially seeing him sitting there, using chopsticks and spoons fluently to eat breakfast quietly, which was particularly interesting.
Is it because of receiving You Zhengqing's memory that an "artificial intelligence system" can eat like a real human?
Or is it that the other party is not just an artificial intelligence.
"I couldn't help you connect to the fragment world before, and this time it's a mid-to-high-level biochemical apocalypse, and you have been targeted by the system tower, so I have to do something."
She can't always get her help, although in her opinion, she also got his help in the native world. But he knows in his heart that this kind of help is not equal, and she has never been the one who is desperate.
"Thank you." You Xi was grateful, and her fingertips moved. A bowl of cut fruits appeared in front of the other person's porridge bowl. Raspberries, blueberries, apple cubes and cherries were paired with honey.
She noticed that he had eaten all the cucumbers in the plate of cold vegetables in front of him, leaving only the black fungus, and chose porridge with vegetables as the staple food.
The system seems to be a bit picky, preferring fruits and vegetables...
"..." The other person looked at the fruit bowl in silence for a second, silently pushed the cold vegetable bowl away, and pulled the fruit bowl closer.
"Or you should go back after breakfast. Luo Rui was stabbed in the heart by you. Even if he has the means to protect himself from death, his subsequent abilities will be greatly reduced. What's more, I have always been wary of him. After all, this is a mission world. If you are discovered by the system tower..."
She had been reminded by the system early in the morning and was mentally prepared. When she felt the danger coming from behind her in the desert, she began to be wary of "Kong Lin". If the other party was just an ordinary person or had no hostility, her body would not automatically alarm.
Another thing is what he said, saying that her face was a little important to him. But according to logic, You Xi has always been an aboriginal in his heart. Suddenly seeing a similar You Xi, he usually feels friendly. When Lin Wu saw her, he chose to protect her silently; when Tang Yatong saw her, she asked directly to recognize her.
Only Luo Rui did nothing. He was alert and secretly observed. This showed that he had known that she was the tasker.
How did he know?
Thinking about it this way, the answer was already obvious.
"I won't notice it." The other party ate fruit and slowly spoke, "This body is on the verge of death, which means it will disappear from this world. The system tower will not notice it."
This is the same as the last time in the acid rain world. For a dying or just dead body, some minor tampering will not attract any attention at all.
Of course, in the same way, he will also pay some price. For example, entering such a body requires a lot of energy. After entering, he will also feel the pain of the body, will be limited by the body, and most of his abilities cannot be used.
Occasionally using abilities will also lead to negative effects, such as fainting. This means that he is in a weak state most of the time in this world.
But the benefits are also obvious.
"I am here, at least I don't need you to take care of me all the time, I still have the ability to protect myself. As long as this body is safe enough, your mission will not go wrong."
He paused, as if he was thinking about something, and after a moment, he spoke again, "Anyway, it's not the first time I've entered the apocalyptic world, you don't have to worry too much, I know my limits."
You Xi:...? ?
"..." He waited for a moment, but she didn't respond, so he could only continue, "Acid Rain World Underground Laboratory."
You Xi:...!!
She remembered that time when she was fuzzy, she saw that the protective shield covering her and "Feng Xu" was indeed light gold. She always thought that the person who saved her later was Lin Wu, but it turned out that the person who saved her was her Ah Tong! ?
He was so weak after making an attack and defense this time, but that time, he held up the protective shield for more than 30 hours. How did he hold on?
No wonder, for a period of time afterwards, A Tong gave her a very mechanical feeling. Was it because he was temporarily unable to appear due to excessive consumption, and was temporarily replaced by other mechanical systems?
"So it's you." You Xi sighed, "Why didn't you tell me before?" At least, she could say thank you.
"It's not a big deal, it's not important."
"Thank you, A Tong."
"..." This title made him silent.
He seemed to want to say something, but finally gave up.
It's just a title, she can call him whatever she wants.
**
Afterwards, You Xi considered not wanting the system to consume too much energy, so she discussed with him the plan for the remaining mission time.
Since she was with the system, it was naturally more convenient for her to act alone. The hospital could be kept for a while, but it had to depend on the overall situation of the entire city. We couldn't wait until only the infected were left in the city to evacuate.
After the system left, she also hoped that You Zhengqing could spend the rest of his days in a relatively safe environment.
Since the authorities already knew about it, they would not surrender. At least the shelter should have been prepared.
Currently, there are four cities in Huaguo that have been hit by the outbreak, all in the coastal areas. The inland areas are temporarily safe and can be evacuated.
Therefore, when the news announced the location of the shelter, she asked the system if she wanted to go to the shelter.
"Just wait and see for a few days."
"Yeah, I think so too." The early days of the apocalypse are the most chaotic time. In a place like a shelter, once there is an error in a certain environment, the entire area will become the next epidemic area.
They decided to wait and see, and during this period, they found all the medicines and medical supplies that You Zhengqing needed, but in the same building, there were other people who couldn't bear it after seeing the news.
There are survivors in the hospital, and there are quite a few of them.
Although this is one of the first places where mutants appeared in Zhoucheng, the situation is slightly better than outside because of the existence of the isolation wall.
Although there are also infected people inside, the hospital has notified all patients not to move around casually after being isolated, so the symptoms of infection have not spread on a large scale.
Youxi plans to clean the entire inpatient building first, and then take out the medicines that should be taken and put away the medical supplies that should be collected. Originally, because of taking care of You Zhengqing, she couldn't leave, and she didn't feel at ease leaving him alone in the ward.
But now, her family's A Tong is here. Although he is still weak, he has the ability to protect himself and is more sensitive than her in sensing danger.
After noon, the two put on protective clothing. Youxi carried a Tang sword and a backpack, held a Mitsubishi bayonet, and began to clean the hospital building. They started from the eighth floor, first went up to the top floor, and checked the wards one by one.
There were only two patients in the high-end private wards on the tenth floor, and the patients in these two rooms, along with the three people in the medical station, all died.
There were many children's items in one of the wards, and it can be seen that there was a child among the family of the patient. Later, Youxi found a photo of him and the girl in the victim's wallet, confirming that the evolved mutant was his family.
So the people on this floor were the first to die, and from the items placed indoors, it can be analyzed that they were almost all killed in a defenseless state.
The wards on this floor are equipped with a full set of monitoring equipment, patient-specific beds, wheelchairs, and special assisted bathing equipment. Youxi did not hold back and directly emptied out a high-end private ward.
The sixth to ninth floors are all private wards, with an occupancy rate of about one-third. There is a medical station on each floor, and each medical station has three medical staff.
The ninth floor was also wiped out because it was close to the tenth floor. Several people died at the door of the ward. They must have been killed the moment the door was opened without any preparation.
The situation on the eighth, seventh and sixth floors was better, with a total of three medical staff surviving. Without exception, they all hid in a locked lounge. This lounge had no windows, but had beds and cabinets. After locking the door, they used the cabinet to prop up the door, and thus survived, but they were all a little dazed.
Two of them had blood on their bodies and faces. You Xi checked them and found no wounds. After talking to them and explaining the reason, he found two clean empty wards and temporarily locked them in one room each, and gave them some of the water collected from the medical station.
Based on her understanding of BLOOD mutation, if they were exposed to blood last night, they would enter the second stage of mutation in two days at most.
If none of them were infected, it means that exposure to mutant blood will not lead to 100% infection, and some specific conditions may be required, such as blood entry or blood-contaminated wounds.
Several wards from the eighth to the sixth floors were locked and blocked by something. After Youxi tried knocking on the door of a ward but couldn't open it, and asked but got no response, she chose to directly skip all the locked wards.
This situation usually means that there are still normal people or infected people who are in the first stage and still have reason, otherwise she would have rushed out with such a commotion.
She could understand the other party's vigilance and distrust, so she would not force the other party to open the door. She did not intend to be responsible for anyone, let alone use the hospital as a temporary base and become the captain herself.
That was not suitable for her. People's hearts were too complicated. She would rather fight monsters by herself.
What's more, she now had a Tongzi by her side. If she was really bored, she could play cards, chess and eat hot pot with him.
Because she did not waste time on the complicated hearts of people, Youxi cleaned up the hospital building very quickly. In just a few hours, she came to the first floor. During this period, she rescued a total of five or six medical staff and cleaned up more than a dozen complete mutants.
Most of them were curled up under the bed and in the closet in the room, originally sleeping, but as soon as they saw her, they immediately opened their bloodshot eyes and rushed over with their fangs and claws bared.
Because there was no surveillance in the ward and no one else was around, You Xi had no need to hide her clumsiness. She cut open either the head or the heart with her knife.
These medical staff were luckier, and none of them had the blood of the mutants on them. You Xi briefly told them about the current situation of the other three medical staff, gave them the keys to the two rooms, and let them be responsible for the subsequent supervision and observation.
The underground parking lot of the entire hospital covers a large area, and there is also a partial parking lot under the inpatient building. She found the key to the elevator in the security room on the first floor, temporarily locked the elevator, and then closed the two entrances and exits of the building.
After that, she went to the pharmacy first. There were surveillance cameras inside and outside the pharmacy. She originally planned to go to the security room to cut off the surveillance, but the person who followed her all the way stopped her.
Then, he turned his palm down, and several thin coin-sized light golden pieces fell from his palm, along the blind spot of the surveillance, all the way to the camera, directly cutting off all the surveillance nearby.
You Xi found inspiration from this, and felt that he could also control the ice slices to cut off the surveillance in the future, but this method was easier to miss, so it was better to go to the security room to cut it off fundamentally.
"Don't worry, I can sense that there are no surveillance nearby." He stood beside her, allowing her to go and get the medicine without worry.
You Xi compared the medicines that the nurse had given her one by one, checked the daily dosage, and the various drips to be hung, and various syringe medicines, and prepared a whole year's supply of medicine at once. Although You Zhengqing was declared to have only a few months to live, she still hoped that he could live longer.
Finally, considering the pain and suffering of cancer patients before their death, she took a few euthanasia injections.
Her native world did not advocate this method. Most terminally ill patients survived by hanging various drips and painkillers. She had heard of that kind of pain.
The medicine in this world does not have too many restrictions. Terminally ill patients have the right to freely choose life and death. This decision can only be made by the patient himself, and even the closest relatives cannot agree or refuse on his behalf.
Similarly, she left the right of choice to You Zhengqing himself.
After stocking up all the medical supplies that You Zhengqing needed, she was able to think about repairing the hospital building.
There are many broken windows in the building. The stairwell on the tenth floor was broken by Lou Rui, the stairwell on the ninth floor was burned by her [High Temperature Perfume], and the glass on the first floor was the most damaged. It is best to repair these during the day.
Otherwise, once the sun sets, more mutants will enter the building, and her cleaning will be in vain.
After the repair, even if someone in the building makes a noise and attracts mutants outside, they have to break through the obstacles before they can come in, and this noise is enough to let her know that there is an infected person (or human) invading.
Youxi took a big axe to chop the wooden cabinet and the wooden table to make the wooden strips for repair. The man who had been watching for a while suddenly came over, took the axe from her hand, and imitated her movement to chop a wooden cabinet.
With a bang, a crack appeared in the wooden cabinet, and the axe got stuck in the crack. He pulled hard, but couldn't move it.
Tong: ...
Youxi: ...
He stood there, silently looking at the stuck axe, thought for a while, and extended a light blade about five or six centimeters long from his fingertips. Then he bent down and gently split the whole wooden cabinet into long strips.
Youxi held his forehead and said, "...It's just splitting a cabinet, don't waste your energy."
Brother Tong, it's not necessary, it's really not necessary...
**
The movement of them repairing the building finally made the survivors who were originally locked in the ward unable to stay. After someone observed, they carefully walked out of their hiding place.
They found infected people lying in other wards in a bloody mess, and saw medical staff standing outside two wards. Finally, they saw Youxi repairing the glass windows.
The survivors who had been in a state of panic for two whole days were stunned. What happened? Did the rescue team come? How did the whole building become so safe so quickly?
After they learned from the medical staff that it was not the rescue team but Youxi who saved the others, they felt happy and uneasy. They
were happy that the building was finally safe, but they were uneasy because it was almost dark today. They couldn't leave the city and rush to the shelter at this time, and they had to stay here for another night.
At night, the mutants are rampant. The terrible roars and desperate cries for help will make the whole night seem extremely long.
It is really terrible to have to hide indoors and shiver without making any sound.
After Youxi repaired all the glass, most of the survivors in the building gathered in the operating room on the third floor. There are no windows here, and the soundproofing is good. They are going to hold a meeting here to plan what to do next.
A medical staff member who had talked to Youxi came to ask her to go to the meeting, but she shook her head and refused, saying that she would not participate in collective actions and she should not be included in any plan.
Afterwards, she took her son back to the eighth floor to put away all personal belongings, and then went to the tenth floor together.
Although the entire team was wiped out before the tenth floor, this is the best ward in the entire building. She found a room farthest away from the ward with corpses and settled down temporarily.
In the evening, Youxi really took out the hot pot. Because of the system's taste, she took out a light Cantonese hot pot and a lot of fresh and tender vegetables.
The man sitting opposite her was still very quiet when eating, but his speed was more than twice as fast as breakfast.
Youxi smiled and took out another fruit bowl. This time it was strawberries, cherry tomatoes, hand-peeled oranges and cantaloupe. After taking it out, she pushed the whole bowl in front of him.
Tong: ...
Before the sun set, the people in the building had drawn all the curtains, locked the doors of their rooms, and turned off all the lights.
The long bloody night has begun again.
However, in the apocalypse, it is a luxury to spend a peaceful night in peace.
