Chapter 107 Marine Hot Spring Comprehensive Sanatorium (Part 3)
The next morning, when Mingzhao woke up, he felt that all the fatigue in his brain had disappeared.
Within his sea of consciousness, the size of those elemental particles had stabilized, becoming noticeably larger and more solid than before.
Especially the water element, Mingzhao felt that the water element had a clear tendency to merge. It seemed that as long as he could continue to soak in the hot spring, it was only a matter of time before he could upgrade to the intermediate level.
When she opened the door, Maomao was already waiting for her at the entrance.
They went to the restaurant for breakfast as usual.
The patients were still waiting at the window early in the morning to receive the pink [Deep Sea Mother Worm Nutrients].
Maomao and Mingzhao went to another window and got fried dough sticks, steamed buns, soy milk, and tea eggs.
As usual, Mao Mao stared at Ming Zhao while she ate, watching her finish all the food.
Mingzhao found her behavior increasingly strange and became more and more wary.
The notice board announcing the daily tasks is located at the restaurant entrance.
Mingzhao saw it as soon as he went in.
Daily task: Study nursing methods diligently.
Mingzhao felt relieved. She had been worried that the task was something difficult to complete, but now it seemed to be just a simple daily routine.
Maomao didn't seem to see the notice board at the entrance. When Mingzhao stopped to look, she urged her to hurry up and leave.
After the meal, wait for the patients to return to their rooms.
Mao Mao then began taking her to different rooms to perform nursing care.
Each patient's injury is different, so the medications and nursing methods used are also different.
These processes were very complicated, so Mingzhao took out a pen and paper he found in the room and carefully wrote them down.
Mao Mao seemed very satisfied with Ming Zhao's reaction, and she would occasionally glance at her notebook to make sure that what she had written down was correct.
After lunch, I go back to rest for two hours before starting my afternoon nursing work.
In the afternoon, Maomao would occasionally let Mingzhao operate the equipment herself, pointing out any mistakes she made.
Every patient treated them very well, cooperating fully when being turned over, given injections, and taken medication.
I'll also chat with them.
Each patient had a normal mind, bright eyes, and their own unique personality.
This is completely different from drinking [Deep Sea Mother Worm Nutrients] and behaving like a zombie at night.
All of this brought Mingzhao a huge sense of disconnect.
Although caring for each patient didn't require much effort, Mingzhao felt exhausted after caring for more than twenty patients.
But Mao Mao didn't seem to feel tired at all.
It's important to know that Mingzhao's physical fitness level is already 101, which is just beyond the human limit.
She dared not underestimate the seemingly ordinary Mao Mao any longer.
After finishing dinner at 8 p.m., it was finally time to rest.
After Mingzhao returned to the courtyard, Maomao came back half an hour late.
"You have completed your task for today."
As she spoke, Maomao handed the key to the hot spring to Mingzhao.
Maomao can't see the daily task bulletin board, but she can tell whether she has completed them or not.
Is this related to the two hours she disappeared?
Mingzhao was very curious, but she couldn't ask.
Next, as usual, was two hours of meditation in the hot spring.
This time, she was even more adept at absorbing the rich concentration of elemental molecules.
When Mingzhao came out of the hot spring, he felt that his water element had filled his entire sea of consciousness, and it seemed that he was only one layer away from advancing to the second level.
She slept very well tonight.
Perhaps because she had worked as a caregiver all day and also practiced magic, she was even more exhausted than yesterday.
The moment his head touched the pillow, he fell into a coma.
When I woke up again, it was already daylight.
I wasn't woken up at all by the noise from the patients in the middle of the night.
The work for the new day is pretty much the same as yesterday.
Today's daily task is to independently provide care for 10 patients.
Seeing that Maomao also knew about the daily tasks, Mingzhao told her directly.
Mao Mao nodded and drew 13 rooms on the duty roster.
"I'm leaving all of this to you today. Remember to write down everything you do."
Mingzhao began her nursing duties for the day.
She wrote down all of yesterday's nursing procedures.
Although it was much slower than when I had guidance from Maomao, I still managed to complete it without any mistakes.
During that time, every patient would strike up a conversation with her.
They were mostly about mundane family matters, and Mingzhao would just give them perfunctory answers.
She remembered that the staff handbook said not to believe what patients said and not to have any further communication with them.
In the morning, I finished taking care of the last patient.
Mingzhao turned around and found that Maomao was already outside the door, watching her for who knows how long.
The hairs on her neck stood on end.
Mao Mao seemed to be paying extra attention to her behavior, and the feeling that there was always a pair of eyes watching her from behind made her shudder.
The nursing work in the afternoon was similar to that in the morning, but Mingzhao was more skilled and completed it faster, finishing all the work by seven o'clock.
Turning around, I found that Maomao had reappeared at the door.
Did Mao Mao know about my movements? Ming Zhao's doubts deepened.
Today, Maomao went out for half an hour. When she came back, she told Mingzhao that she had completed her daily task and received two hours of hot spring time.
That night, Mingzhao was not woken up by any noise.
Mingzhao began to feel something was strange.
This instance doesn't seem dangerous; I just need to complete the daily tasks step by step.
But how exactly do you determine when you've completed this instance?
The rules only say to strictly follow the caregiver code of conduct, but then what? What are the conditions for completion?
Mingzhao had absolutely no clue about any of these things, so she could only continue with her daily routine.
However, on the morning of the fourth day, the daily tasks on the bulletin board changed.
Daily task: Spend at least ten minutes communicating with each patient, and interact with at least ten patients.
Mingzhao sensed something unusual about this daily task.
Ten minutes isn't a long time. When I was doing nursing work with Maomao before, she would chat with patients while working.
Mingzhao's main concern was the clause in the caregiver's manual that advised against trusting patients, which made her feel that talking to patients could potentially pose a risk.
But one hour of cultivation in the hot spring is equivalent to ten hours outside, and she really didn't want to miss this opportunity.
"It's just a chat, don't believe me if you don't believe me," Mingzhao comforted herself.
The first patient I cared for today was a dolphin whose tail had a large rotten patch.
This dolphin is not very old, and it's usually the most talkative patient.
Mingzhao ignored it before, and after talking for a while it got bored and stopped.
However, this time, it became interested when it saw Mingzhao start to reply.
Balabala told Mingzhao everything she had done that day in great detail.
Mingzhao chatted with it casually.
"Oh, I used to love my mom's stewed sardines and anchovies. I haven't had it in ages."
Mingzhao replied while disinfecting its wound.
"Then why aren't you eating? There was plenty of seafood at lunchtime."
