Chapter 21 First Hospital (20) [VIP]
Inside the dark inspection department, Bai Jinshu dodged the gravel and broken glass on the ground while recalling the internal structure of the inspection department that he had seen yesterday.
Because the hole that Yang Pei had blown was so large, there was a risk of the light being seen from outside if they used a flashlight inside, so the three of them could only walk in the dark, carefully avoiding the debris on the ground and the surrounding tables and chairs.
Bai Jinshu was walking in the front. Obviously, no one could see anything in the dark, but he seemed to be wearing night vision goggles. He was able to skillfully avoid the debris on the ground and walked leisurely in the ruins, which attracted a lot of comments such as 666 and [What luck is amazing? Sorry, it’s really amazing] on the barrage.
Lu Changfeng followed in the middle. Although he couldn't see clearly what was on the ground, he was a nimble fat man. He could always flexibly avoid debris and straighten his body when he kicked it or stood unsteadily. Although he stumbled a little, the journey was generally smooth.
Doctor Fang, who was wearing Chen Fei's shell, was at the back. He was neither flexible nor lucky. After stumbling for several times, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and leaned onto Lu Changfeng's shoulders.
"Take me a step," he said, stumbling again, "I can't see."
"Can I see it?" Lu Changfeng was speechless. "Aren't you a doctor in the medical examination department? Don't you know the way?"
He should be more familiar with this place than me and Brother Ao, right?
"Chen Fei," Doctor Fang stumbled again, his voice becoming even more gritted, "Chen Fei has night blindness."
He was now wearing Fade Chen's shell, so naturally he couldn't see anything.
Lu Changfeng: ???
"Then why did you come out with us so late at night?" He didn't understand, but was shocked. "I can see that you really want to live."
How afraid must he be of dying if he stayed alone on the same floor with Yang Pei? Fang Shaoning was truly a coward.
[Where is the night vision camera? Can you help me with the night vision camera? ]
[It's fine if the exploration team can't see it, but why can't we see it either? ]
【What is immersive exploration live broadcast. 】
[My mom couldn't sleep so she randomly clicked on a live broadcast. It was pitch black when she came in. She could only hear two people talking. What are you playing in this live broadcast room in the middle of the night? ]
【Explore the ruins.】
【Hospital Adventure.】
【Revealing the secrets of the evil god.】
[? Are you talking about the same live broadcast? ? ?]
[Adventure in the hospital ruins and uncover the secrets of the evil god. 】
【Good to sew. 】
Bai Jinshu followed the route to the inspection department in his memory, walked around the corridor, paid attention to his steps, crossed the glass partition wall that had been completely shattered, and walked into the waiting area of the inspection department.
Going further ahead is the inspection area. The big hole that Chen Fei blew up is right in front of them. With the moonlight shining through the hole, Bai Jinshu can see the furnishings here more clearly.
It was estimated that the hospital had hired someone to move the equipment during the day. The examination area that was slightly crowded yesterday was now empty. Doctor Fang and Director Sun on the billboard in the waiting area had all disappeared as if they had never existed. In the dim environment, the two extra doctors who had never been seen were facing the camera with a standard smile showing eight teeth, staring at everyone who passed by.
Bai Jinshu followed his memory and came to the wooden door of the office. The wooden door was shattered by yesterday's explosion, and now the broken surface was barely covered with two pieces of wood. He tried to push it, but sure enough, it couldn't be pushed open. It had been locked.
"Cheung Fun," he called back, "Can you open a lock?"
"Ah?" Lu Changfeng was suddenly called out and took a few seconds to react, "I don't know how to do it."
What gave him the illusion that Brother Ao could unlock the door by himself?
"I can't do it either." With the moonlight, Dr. Fang was finally able to see the things in front of him clearly, and quickly let go of Lu Changfeng's shoulder. "Besides, even if I could, I can't see it."
At night, Chen Fei's night blindness made him look like a blind man. No one knew who gave him the courage to join the foundation.
"Tsk," Bai Jinshu said in annoyance, "Do you have a fire axe on this floor?"
"Yes," Doctor Fang thought for a moment, "The fire axe should be in a box under the corridor outside, but it is usually locked. If the glass outside is broken, an Internet alarm will sound."
"What about the switch?" Bai Jinshu continued to ask.
"The switch is in the fire escape outside. There was an explosion yesterday. To prevent fires during the day or accidents when moving equipment, it should have been pulled down," Doctor Fang said after thinking for a moment. "But the circuits for firefighting equipment and evacuation signs are separate. In the past few years, the fire department came several times because the circuits in the old building were not standardized. Later, the circuits for these emergency equipment were separate, and pulling the switch would not affect their power supply."
"Didn't you lose your memory?" Lu Changfeng found it unbelievable that he could answer questions fluently.
"I just lost my memory of the details of the rules," Doctor Fang said righteously, "I know the hospital better than either of you, so I suggest you take me with you wherever you go."
Lu Changfeng: "...You are really afraid of death."
Doctor Fang seemed to value life more than the two other members of the exploration team who came in to explore.
Bai Jinshu stepped into the broken glass outside and picked up the sharper triangular pieces of broken glass: "Rice noodle rolls, let's go."
"Coming." Lu Changfeng trotted over immediately.
The two walked along the wall in the dark for a while, and sure enough, they came across a tall, flat square box. There was a little white light on the edge of the box, which was probably an indicator light indicating that there was electricity.
"Lift the box up," Bai Jinshu instructed, "Lift it higher."
Lu Changfeng did as he was told.
Bai Jinshu groped in the dark and found a wire at the bottom of the box. He immediately used the sharp edge of the glass to scratch it back and forth several times without hesitation.
[I can't see it, but from the sound, it seems like they are using glass to cut the wires, right?]
[Cut the electric wire? Oh my god, isn’t he afraid of electric shock? ]
【Glass is insulated! 】
【Oh, yes, yes.】
[Glass insulation is also dangerous. He cut the wires directly with his hands.]
[That can't be helped. Where can I find insulating gloves in this environment? ]
The barrage was discussing when suddenly a yellow notice appeared above: [Notice: Dangerous behavior, please do not imitate]
[Housing management? ]
【??? Housing manager, you didn’t sleep, why don’t you add a night vision camera???】
[Damn it, even if I want to imitate, I have to be able to see it, right?! ]
[Housekeeper, if you are still alive, add a night vision lens. 】
[Brothers, please disperse. The housing manager has been eaten by the evil spirit. ]
The screen was pitch black and nothing could be seen. Investors began to denounce the property management for only issuing an announcement without using night vision goggles.
"Alright," Bai Jinshu cut the wires and directed Lu Changfeng to put the box down, "Get the axe."
Lu Changfeng placed the box flat on the ground, stepped on the glass to break it, turned the box over, and picked up the fire axe from the ground.
The two men returned to the office along the same route. When Dr. Fang saw them coming back, he immediately took a few steps back and made a gesture of invitation to Lu Changfeng who was holding a fire axe.
Lu Changfeng: "...Why not you?"
Why do you consciously make way for him when you see him?
"You are definitely more efficient between the two of us," Doctor Fang said confidently, "and you refused to heal my injury, so of course I don't have the energy to chop the door."
Lu Changfeng was speechless and unable to refute, so he had to walk forward with the axe and start chopping the wooden door.
There was a lot of joy on the barrage:
【80! 80! 】
"Here's Johnny!"
[Open the door! □□! ]
【Open the door! The community sends warmth! 】
Lu Changfeng split the door open until it was wide enough for a person to pass through, and said to Bai Jin, "Brother Ao, is this okay?"
"Okay," Bai Jinshu nodded and went into the office sideways, "You two don't need to come in."
He was worried that the shrine would also trigger the time-stop space. He was sure he could get out, but he was not 100% sure he could bring two people out.
Bai Jinshu was a little worried that he would clean up the office after cleaning up the equipment outside during the day, but now it seems that yesterday's explosion has also affected here. The office is in a mess with scattered paper documents and various debris everywhere. The hospital should be busy moving equipment during the day and had no time to clean up the messy office, so he just locked the door and planned to move in the next few days.
Since they entered a relatively independent room, the big hole could not be seen from the outside, so Bai Jinshu turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone and stood on tiptoe to look at the shrine.
The inside of the shrine was a mess. The statue had been blown into pieces of wood, mixed with porcelain fragments and incense ashes from the incense burner, and fruit residue that had been left for a day and a night and already had a bad smell, all mixed together and piled up inside the shrine.
Bai Jinshu walked around the office and used the same piece of glass to cut a curtain. He put all the things in the shrine into it, tied a knot, and went out to throw it into Lu Changfeng's hands.
"Let's go," he raised his head towards the corridor, "Let's go back tonight. We can look at the details of this when we have time tomorrow morning."
He doubted that there would be no more peaceful days like today. Their attending physician Fang Shaoning disappeared completely after becoming Chen Fei last night, and the successor doctor, Director Sun, was eliminated for violating the rules, which delayed a day and a night. He was afraid that a new doctor would be assigned tomorrow, and he would have to face double the trouble.
Fortunately, he has now cracked the core rules regarding patient identity in the hospital, and he also has an idea about the rules of the shrine. Although he hasn't thought of it yet, it will not involve daily treatment after all.
The three of them returned to the inpatient department along the same route. Scarao fell asleep as soon as he got on the bed, while Lu Changfeng and Dr. Fang argued for a long time. In the end, one of them slept on the bed while the other slept on a folding chair.
Fang Shaoning was timid and it was natural for him to be timid. No matter how Lu Changfeng provoked him, he refused to go to the general surgery department on the eighth floor where Yang Pei was. Anyway, the rules did not say that patients in different departments had to stay in their own wards. He simply opened the folding chair in Lu Changfeng's ward and lay down on it, as if he had no intention of moving.
The next day, when the two men arrived at the door of Bai Jinshu's ward, Lu Changfeng discovered that Scaro in the room had already gotten up early.
His brother Ao had already folded the quilt, found a small stool from somewhere, and sat on the edge of the bed with his back to them, not knowing what he was doing.
Lu Changfeng moved closer and found that there were a bunch of wooden blocks with their edges blown to pieces scattered on his brother Ao's bed. His brother Ao was holding a three-second glue stick in one hand and a wooden sculpture that had been assembled a quarter of the way in the other hand, and a vague outline could be seen.
"Brother Ao, you can do this?" He was immediately astonished.
He wouldn't have known where to start with this pile of messy wood chips, but Brother Ao was able to piece them together into a decent shape. It was simply a miracle.
"If you have nothing to do, come and help," Bai Jinshu said bluntly, pointing to a pile of sawdust in the cloth bag beside him. "Those haven't been cleaned up yet. Take a basin to the bathroom and wash them clean. Don't damage the broken shapes on them. When you're done, dry them and bring them here."
Lu Changfeng took the basin to wash the wood blocks, and when he left, he did not forget to take Dr. Fang with him.
When the two came back from washing, Bai Jinshu had almost finished putting the wooden blocks on the bed together. Lu Changfeng could now roughly recognize that it was probably the shape of a bird's head, with a pointed beak and carved patterns of feathers.
He placed the cleaned wooden blocks on the bed one by one and couldn't help but ask incredulously: "So this evil god is a bird?"
Bai Jinshu: ...
"Be civilized and set a new trend," he said calmly, "Don't swear, I'm afraid my live broadcast room will be blocked."
He had already given up hope on Lu Changfeng's language system.
[Hahahahahaha, Xiao Ao, if you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have thought of this. ]
【Why is Lu Changfeng so happy? 】
[It’s so funny. Actually, the live broadcast room will not be blocked if there is such a level of swearing. 】
[Where's the property manager? You came out quickly last night, why didn't you put up your "Please don't imitate" sign today? ]
A note with a yellow background slowly popped up: [Notice: Uncivilized language, please do not imitate. ]
[…Just add it when I tell you to? ]
In the ward, Lu Changfeng and Doctor Fang went to the cafeteria to eat as usual. When they came back with the breakfast packed for Bai Jinshu, he had almost finished the puzzle. There were many unjoined wooden blocks left on the bed. The outline of the statue on his left hand could be almost seen, and it was indeed the shape of a bird.
"What kind of bird is this?" Lu Changfeng observed it for a long time and poked Doctor Fang next to him, "Aren't you from this hospital? Do you remember it now? Do you know what this is?"
"I don't know." Doctor Fang shook his head solemnly. "And I don't know why, but I feel this thing is very strange now. It's not like what I see every day in my vague memory."
"You mean Brother Ao made a mistake?" Lu Changfeng was a little puzzled. "Isn't this wood carving blown to pieces? It's not a pre-designed puzzle. How can it be put together in another shape?"
"It's not the shape," Doctor Fang was obviously racking his brains to recall, "It's the feeling that's wrong. I just don't think it's the same. But if you ask me what's different, I can't really put my finger on it."
"Isn't this a problem?" Lu Changfeng was worried. "None of us knows what kind of bird this is? How about asking the other three people?"
Bai Jinshu put down the preserved egg and lean meat porridge in his hand and said slowly, "No need."
He is too lazy to share clues with others. Does he look like a philanthropist?
Bai Jinshu picked up the stuck-together wood sculptures from the bed, took a few all-round photos facing the light from the window, then opened Baidu and searched Tieba.
Then, he successfully registered a new Tieba account with this mobile phone number, followed the Baidu Birds Bar, clicked edit, and started posting.
[Help] Does anyone know what kind of bird this is?
[Yesterday, a relative came to visit with his child. The naughty kid entered my father's study and saw a pile of firecrackers from the New Year piled up in the corner of the balcony. He found a lighter from somewhere and started lighting them up.
As a result, he lit a firecracker, but it was not placed in the right place, and it flew directly into the old man's cabinet, blowing his collection of wood carvings to pieces. The relative was very kind, saying that it was the child's fault, and as long as the person was fine, everything would be compensated, even at twice the original price.
But my father went out traveling, and the author did not dare to tell him that the wood carving in his cabinet was blown to pieces. The old man has a bad heart and was afraid something might happen outside, so he wanted to ask the omnipotent forum friends what kind of bird this was. He wanted to buy a new one before he came back or find someone to carve the same one and put it back without him finding out.
I roughly put it together and can make out the outline, but a lot of the sawdust has been blown to pieces and can't be put together. I hope someone can give me some guidance. 】
【Pictures】【Pictures】【Pictures】
Lu Changfeng was stunned, watching his brother Ao finish editing the post and send it with one click. He felt like a fool for still wondering what this was a few seconds ago.
How come Brother Ao always manages to solve problems in some incredible ways?
Doctor Fang watched the whole process with a fluctuating look in his eyes, obviously remembering the bizarre incident of this man reciting Baidu entries on the spot in the time-stop space.
"Why are you looking at me?" Bai Jinshu looked up after posting the message, with a puzzled look on his face. "Who else can I turn to for this kind of thing if not a professional?"
The Internet is so developed, why can't I just ask?
"Nothing," Lu Changfeng was distraught, "I just feel really stupid, really."
[Skao's brain circuits have always been very good. 】
[His actions have always been outrageous.]
[He is always very good at Baidu.]
[This is the first time I’ve seen someone explore the rules of an unknown space without looking for information on their own, but instead posting it online to ask netizens…]
[Xiao Ao is right. For this kind of thing, who else can we turn to if not a professional? I have looked up information on my own before, but the results I deduced were far from the rules. If you don't have the skills, don't take on this kind of job.]
[Did he create a new exploration genre - Baidu style? 】
[It's so funny. In an unknown space with a post-modern background, if the exploration team members have any questions, they should post them online and ask netizens for their opinions.]
[The netizen worked for nothing. 】
Bai Jinshu's guess last night was correct. As expected, after a day and a night of peace, the unknown space reassigned a new doctor to be in charge of their patients. Fortunately, the surviving team members now had a vague idea of the rules, but due to the need to fill in the judgment criteria for the details, no one passed.
The "special inspection" in the morning was circumvented by everyone. Yang Pei's left hand was already crippled by Director Sun, and he was really injured. Bai Jinshu casually found a piece of cloth and hung his left hand around his neck, saying that his left hand was broken.
Zheng Yunyun pretended to be crazy and was the most heartbreaking. Xu Ze and Lu Mingcheng also spent a lot of money to shave their heads bald and said that they lost their legs due to chemotherapy. Lu Changfeng borrowed a crutch and said that he broke his leg. Doctor Fang didn't need to pretend at all. He just lifted his shirt and the wound on his stomach wrapped in gauze was the best evidence of general surgery.
Liu Meixin was still nowhere to be seen.
At lunch time, the team members who had finally finished the inspection gathered in the cafeteria. Lu Changfeng saw his brother Ao open his mobile phone after lunch. There was a faint "hot" in front of the title of the post he posted in the morning. Looking at the number of replies, there were more than a hundred.
When I clicked on the post, most people were lamenting that naughty kids can cause great harm, and they also expressed their concern for the poster who was facing an unexpected disaster.
In the replies to other content, the post initially had people guessing what it was. Some said that judging from the features, it should be some kind of bird of the genus Falcon in the family Falconidae.
Some people also say that the shape of the restored wood carving can be matched with many birds in China, and the appearance is similar. Because the size of the wood carving is not necessarily the same as the original bird, it is impossible to judge the species by the body shape. Because of the special nature of the wood carving, the method of judging the species by pattern and color cannot be used. In addition, the wood carving was blown to pieces. Although the general shape was pieced back, it lacks many features. It is too difficult to tell what kind of bird it is.
As soon as this was said, many people responded to it, and some even advised the OP to just buy one at random. After all, these bird sculptures are all pretty much the same, and maybe his dad won't even be able to find it when he comes back from his trip.
There was an objection reply below, saying that the wood was obviously good wood, and the owner of the wood carving must have taken good care of it, so it would be impossible not to see it.
Bai Jinshu scrolled down a few times. Apart from some meaningless chat content and replies advising him to give up buying a new wood sculpture, there were still a few great gods who persisted in analysis. Finally, after a discussion, they classified all possible birds and replied on the same level.
Bai Jinshu thanked the enthusiastic netizens, copied this layer of content to the clipboard, and then opened Baidu one by one to start searching.
There are videos and pictures of these birds on Baidu Encyclopedia. He compared them one by one. The summary made by the experts in the bird forum was correct. Each one looked very similar to this wood carving. Due to the lack of reference for color and size, the task of identifying the species became extremely difficult.
He placed the wood carving on the bed, bending down from time to time to compare the details in the video. Just as he was concentrating on identifying it, Bai Jinshu suddenly felt the bird's eyes flash.
Like alive.
He picked up the wood carving with a frown, but now he looked at it again without blinking.
What's going on?
Bai Jinshu stood in front of the window and reviewed what he had just done. He used his phone to check the details of the wood carving, bending down from time to time to confirm...
The problem is bending over.
In some activities rich in religious significance, bending down is almost synonymous with worshiping gods. When you go to temples or Taoist temples to pray to gods and worship Buddha, you also have to bow down first.
This wood carving is so weird. It seems that only the statue of a deity being worshipped can provide clues to infer the rules.
No wonder Dr. Fang just said it felt wrong, it turned out that no one worshipped it at that time...
Scarao frowned. He was eager to try to commit suicide, but he could still suppress his active mind. Besides, he didn't know whether it would be useful to worship this incomplete wood sculpture.
Knowing that bending down before it was almost the same as worshipping it, Bai Jinshu simply picked up the wood carving and continued searching for possible birds based on the replies in the forum.
Just as he opened Baidu Encyclopedia as usual and was about to click on the video to start comparison, he suddenly found a very subtle Baidu annotation of this bird.
[Reproduction method: Reproduction occurs from May to July every year. They often occupy the nests of magpies. In the ancient Chinese Book of Songs, there is a line that goes, "The magpie has a nest, and the dove lives there." The "dove" in this phenomenon of "the magpie's nest is occupied by the dove" refers to the red-footed falcon. *]
A dove that takes over the magpie's nest.
The author has something to say:
Metal: If you don't understand, just check Baidu? Why are you asking me? Don't you have your own mobile phone?
The part marked with * is the original text of the entry [Red-footed Falcon] from Baidu Encyclopedia.
