Chapter 60: Try to fool the other party
But when even the first step has not been taken on the ground, such worries inevitably seem a bit unfounded.
Xiao Qin concealed his thoughts from his predecessor and continued to distinguish the changes in the zombies' cries.
These howls keep repeating according to the same pattern. Although their meaning is unclear, they are definitely key clues.
After Ye Xuan failed in his first attempt, he tried to find the reason for his imitation error, but he was not a real zombie after all. Just like when a person is faced with an unfamiliar language, it is difficult to judge whether his pronunciation is standard. He didn't know what went wrong with his imitation.
He thought he had learned it quite well, and if there were a zombie language class, he could go and lead the reading.
Even if the zombies can't understand it, it is enough to fool ordinary humans.
Just as Ye Xuan thought of this, he had another idea.
Since the zombies would stop howling temporarily after hearing his screams, he might be able to use this to fool others.
For example, the search team member who looked a little bit unintelligent.
"Xiao Qin, the man who 'escorted' us here has been transferred to the detention center, right?" Ye Xuan remembered that the captain said this, but it was hard to say whether it was a simple threat.
"That should be the case. What's the matter, senior?" Xiao Qin didn't understand what the Chinese medicine doctor wanted to express.
"Do you think someone will come to deliver food to these patients?" Ye Xing did not give a direct answer, but threw a new question.
"It's not that patients in this situation don't need to eat at all, it's just that their metabolism has slowed down by dozens of times," Xiao Qin has researched and sorted out data on this subject, so he has a better say. "But some of the zombies here seem to have been locked up for quite a while, but they are still very 'active'. They may be replenishing their energy with food."
"That is to say, they won't just lock us in and leave us alone." Ye Xuan looked at the group of zombies that were howling tirelessly, "They will come in eventually."
"Senior," Xiao Qin asked, "Why didn't they interrogate us? I mean, didn't they want to know where we took the patient?"
"Maybe because our attitude isn't very good, and no matter how hard we try, we won't get any information." Ye Xuan said casually.
How could he know why the other party only detained them? Perhaps it was to prevent them from "disturbing public order" again, or perhaps it was to "take revenge" for what happened last time.
These speculations are meaningless. In any case, they have been locked up and the question now is how to get out.
Rather than going to the mall to find an item to "cheat" and sneak out, he hoped that the other party would let them go willingly.
He is the protagonist of the script, and as an NPC who assists the protagonist, he naturally wants to give players a good gaming experience.
Escaping from prison in disgrace doesn't seem to be a good idea.
"Let's wait and see," Ye Xing comforted the somewhat anxious Xiao Qin, "They won't forget about us. I promise we'll be able to get out soon."
Xiao Qin nodded. He knew that his senior said this out of consideration for his feelings, but he still couldn't let it go.
In the first ten years of his life, he had always been a law-abiding citizen. He never expected that one day he would be locked up in the detention center of the search team.
Closed space, depressing environment, and the howling of zombies.
How awful it is here.
“Buzz buzz buzz—”
"Senior, what's that sound?" Xiao Qin asked a little panicked.
"It's okay," Ye Xuan took out his cell phone from his pocket, "I set it to vibrate mode. Someone must have called."
I took a look at the caller ID and saw it was an unfamiliar number.
But since I've been locked up, it probably won't matter if I answer the phone.
Fortunately, the two men simply detained them when they came in, and did not take away any of their belongings.
"Hello?" Ye Xuan found a corner and called quietly, "Who is this?"
"Boss, it's me." The voice was slightly distorted, but Xiao Chen was the only one who called him that. "I, I'm at the door of the clinic, but it's locked, and you're not here..."
I thought it was some big deal.
Ye Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Knock on the door first. There is a patient inside helping to watch the door. Just tell him that I asked you to come."
"What type of patient is it?" Xiao Chen more or less knew that Ye Xing and his team were researching and treating "zombies", and he was a little scared.
"It's what you think." Ye Xuan could tell the other person's voice was trembling a little, "But don't worry, he's almost cured, and he's no different from an ordinary person."
"That's good, that's good." Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but quickly realized the more important part, "Boss, you mean, it's almost cured? Then you are really amazing! Now those experts and scholars still can't figure out the situation!"
"Okay, this is not the time to flatter," Ye Xing interrupted, "Xiao Qin and I are being held in the custody of the search team, and we can't go back for a while. When you enter the clinic, you will see a prescription on the counter. Boil the medicine according to the prescription and give it to the patient. Otherwise, I don't know what will happen."
Hearing these half-threatening words, Xiao Chen's heart was in suspense again: "Boss, are you saying that the patient might 'turn into a brutal and biting zombie' again?"
"Maybe?" Ye Xuan left an ambiguous reply and hung up the call.
"Xiao Qin, Xiao Chen called me just now." Ye Xing walked back to the boy, "He has arrived at the clinic, let's try to let him take care of the patient first."
"I hope he can handle it," Xiao Qin said with some concern, "Senior should have discovered that patients are still quite resistant to herbal medicine."
It was just because of the fear of Chinese medicine that the patient did not dare to make any direct protest.
"It's okay. Xiao Chen is a professional pharmacist. I believe he can handle it." Ye Xuan thought that there was no need for the game to make things so difficult for them in such a place.
Although it is a plot-heavy script, the difficulty of the game also varies.
It may not be easy to be put in a detention center and then get out, but it is certainly not difficult to ask a patient to take medicine.
"Okay, even though the clinic has been temporarily taken care of, our primary goal is still to get out of this damn place." Ye Xing knocked lightly on the iron door of the compartment.
When he said the word "haunted place", the ubiquitous wailing of zombies was very appropriate, giving people the illusion of being in hell.
"Moreover, we also have to find ways to treat the patients here." Xiao Qin kept in mind what his predecessors taught him: "A doctor should have a kind heart."
"Yes," Ye Xuan's plan did include this item, "It all depends on the cooperation of the search team."
Xiao Qin asked with a little surprise: "Senior, what do you think, let them cooperate with us?"
He hadn't said half a thing yet - this was crazy.
"Why not?" Ye Xing could see that the people in the search and arrest team were not bad people. They also wanted the city to return to normal as soon as possible, so they needed their own medical methods.
Although the people in Lin City seem to be doing well, their research progress is actually very slow. If he had the equipment and manpower, he would have lifted the ban on the entire city long ago.
Xiao Qin wanted to find some examples to try to refute his predecessor's ideas, but the search and arrest team has always been doing their work peacefully, there is nothing wrong with it, and it can't be said to be very dangerous.
As he thought about it, he even began to think that they might be good candidates for cooperation.
"Okay, senior, I have to admit that this is the best way right now." Xiao Qin also agreed with this bold idea, "But how do you plan to do it?"
"We have to make them believe first that we are extremely important and powerful characters and cannot be detained at will." Ye Xing gave an ambiguous smile.
…
It's time for dinner. This time was not originally determined. After all, the eating frequency of zombies is completely different from that of normal people. Basically, you can just remember to deliver the food.
But this time, two healthy people were imprisoned, so the canteen prepared a hot prison meal and asked the team member who had just been transferred to the guard office to deliver it.
"I'm so unlucky," the team member complained as he took the plate. "I recognized the two people I robbed last time on the road, but the captain not only didn't reward me, but also transferred me to do such a hard job!"
The cook said in confusion: "The guard post is a very easy and pleasant job. How can it be so hard?"
"It's boring! It's uninteresting! It's dull!" The team members sighed three times in a row.
Forget it, the person in front of him would never understand him.
After entering the detention center, the team member noticed that there seemed to be some inexplicable changes compared to the last time he came.
It couldn't be those two people who did it.
He told himself not to be suspicious.
"You're finally here--" A male voice spoke in a long tone, and the words mixed with the howling of zombies sounded a bit dangerous.
"Hey!" The team member was startled at first, then realized who was talking, "Just stay there and eat when the food comes. Shut up!"
The captain often told him to shut up, and he habitually threw this sentence at him.
"I say, isn't it a bit too much for you to bring us in without any reason?" Ye Xuan moved his face close to the glass window on the iron gate so that the other party could see his expression.
"I'm warning you, if you do this again, it won't be as simple as being locked up in a cell!" The team member deliberately spoke in an unpleasant tone, but unfortunately Ye Xing was not afraid at all and instead gave him a smile in return.
In such an environment, it is still a bit creepy when the other person suddenly smiles.
The team member was originally very close to their cubicle, but now he subconsciously raised his foot and tried to take a small step back.
No, that's too embarrassing.
He stopped his retreat abruptly and moved forward a little, almost sticking to the door.
"Okay, get closer. It's time to get closer." Ye Xuan looked like a devil at this moment. "I have something that I forgot to tell you in advance."
"What's the matter?" This team member was very curious, and even though he didn't like it, he still asked the other party's question.
"I can control these infected people..."
