Chapter 148 Jishi Medical University 6
While enjoying a post-meal relaxation activity with her newly-made NPC roommates, Yu Naixin was actually quite busy.
From the moment Lin Yuting asked, "Naixin, would you like to walk around with me?" Yu Naixin had a plan. She smiled and agreed, and then, during the actual event, she took the initiative and consciously led Lin Yuting around the entire venue.
Yu Naixin excels at familiarizing herself with her environment and creating a mental map of it.
Yu Naixin could measure the area on her own two feet, observe it with her own eyes, and with the help of the priests with folding fans and paper dogs, she could roughly estimate that the campus covered an area of between 800 and 1,000 acres, which is relatively small among universities, but still within the normal range.
The campus faces north. To the west of the entrance is the cafeteria, and to the east is the teaching building. Further south of the cafeteria is the student dormitory building. To the east of the two is the stadium, and to the south of the stadium is a fairly large artificial lake.
Further south of the teaching building is the administration building, and the laboratory building is located in the southeasternmost corner of the campus.
The infrastructure is very complete. The only thing that is missing is the faculty and staff dormitory building. Yu Naixin learned from her previous visit to the cafeteria and her conversation with Lin Yuting that there are staff dormitories inside the cafeteria and administration building. The teachers who come to the school to give lectures are mostly doctors from the surrounding hospitals, and they will go back after class.
[Wow, this female guest is really something. She seems to be doing nothing, just casually strolling and chatting with the NPCs, but actually she's subtly guiding them, every step they take is orchestrated by her. The conversations are all about the areas and buildings they've passed through, allowing her to effortlessly glean information that's difficult to discern with the naked eye.]
[The name restriction for Little Witch is gone! Are there any surnames pronounced "nai"? Or does this NPC address people without their surnames? I don't know which two characters "nai xin" are, but it's kind of cute and suits Little Witch perfectly~]
[Shouldn't it be the "naixin" from "carnation"?]
[I'm so used to a livestream with only one viewpoint window. Where did those two guest streamers go?]
[If she's the ultimate boss, it's likely she really messed with the two male guests when choosing her favorite, making them unable to come over for the time being.]
[It's clear that you longtime viewers have a lot of confidence in this "Yao Ling," but the "Ji Shi Medical University" episode is the most troublesome investigation-type instance. The difficulty is not low for a guest who has just reached the title zone, and mutations can happen at any time. The mortality rate for female guests previously matched with "Ji Shi Medical University" was very high, so it's best not to be too optimistic.]
[I remember that if you chose the Frankenstein's monster as your favorite male guest, the initial show location was inside the laboratory building. If you chose the Banyan Tree Spirit, the initial show location was under the banyan trees outside the laboratory building, which was quite far from the dormitory building and cafeteria where this "Yao Ling" sister appeared.]
The Frankenstein's monster professor and the Banyan Tree Youth have very close home grounds.
Yu Naixin had already deduced this through observation.
The setting of the program "Jishi Medical University" is almost identical to a normal medical school in every aspect. Under such an environment, the only place that could produce a "Frankenstein's monster professor" is the laboratory building that stores a large number of specimens, cadavers and other teaching materials.
This place is probably Professor Frankenstein's territory.
The only area on campus with banyan trees, just as the NPC sister Yu Naixin asked her about, is right outside the laboratory building, only a few steps away.
Banyan trees produce several aerial roots that hang down from their branches. These aerial roots take root where they touch the ground and grow into new banyan branches and trunks. Often, a single banyan tree can form a forest.
The laboratory building is the most remote building on the entire campus. The main road that Yu Naixin led Lin Yuting around the campus leads directly to any other building, but when they get to the laboratory building, they have to take a special path to reach it.
Yu Naixin glanced at the banyan tree from a distance. It was extremely tall, with a trunk that would require at least four or five people to encircle it, and it was clearly quite old.
Countless brown aerial roots hang down from the tree, but because the campus has taken special care of them, very few aerial roots can reach the ground. They are all suspended in mid-air, forming layers of curtains.
This banyan tree can basically be considered the home ground of the banyan tree spirit youth.
The distribution of the two guest stars' home turf is very much in line with the development history of "Jishi Medical University". The mutation and proliferation of the guest stars cannot be completed overnight. They are constantly proliferating and expanding in the process of one program after another, and finally the quantitative change leads to the qualitative change.
The original "Jishi Medical University" program segment should have only had the laboratory building and a small area around it as the venue. The other areas of the campus were gradually added. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why, in such a large program venue, the main venues of two extremely at odds segment guests were so close together.
When Yu Naixin passed by the laboratory building, many viewers in the live stream got excited, wanting to see if the Frankenstein's monster professor and the banyan tree spirit youth were there. However, Yu Naixin did not go close, and from the perspective of the live stream, there was no trace of the two guest stars.
By the time Yu Naixin and Lin Yuting had finished walking around the entire campus, it was already past 8:40 PM.
The NPCs are usually very accommodating to the guests' requests. The roommate NPC assigned to the guests by the production team is also very easy-going. Although Lin Yuting initially just wanted to take a casual walk, she walked a long way more at Yu Naixin's intentional or unintentional request, and she did not show any dissatisfaction.
Back in front of the dormitory building, Lin Yuting took out her phone and exclaimed, "It's almost nine o'clock?!"
Yu Naixin also took out her phone from her pocket and looked at it.
Yu Naixin had found this phone on her own desk in the dormitory. It was almost exactly as it was when it was first installed. The contacts were completely blank. The only things she could find were her two roommates' contact information on WeChat, as well as a dormitory group and a class group.
Currently, the biggest use of this phone for Yu Naixin is as a clock, which is more convenient than the time display on the system screen that requires calculations.
Yu Naixin had pretty much figured out how to communicate effectively with her roommate, and replied, "So what if it's nine o'clock?"
Lin Yuting quickly replied, "Naixin, have you forgotten? Our dorm has a make-up class in the lab building at 9:30!"
Yu Naixin raised her eyebrows slightly.
Has the time finally come when we have to force them to meet the male guest?
"Is it just our dorm?" Yu Naixin asked. "Aren't there any other students?"
“Yes,” Lin Yuting nodded. “The lab has limited materials. There are many people in our class, so we went in stages, one dormitory at a time. There wasn’t enough time. The dorms that hadn’t been served yet were being served in the last few days. Our dorm was last in line, and it was only today that it was our turn.”
As she spoke, Lin Yuting grabbed Yu Naixin's hand and quickened her pace: "Let's hurry and remind Yuanyuan too, we'll go together in a bit!"
When I returned to dormitory 201 in the girls' dormitory, the bed on the right side of the door was no longer empty. A girl with short hair and black-rimmed glasses was sitting in the chair, watching a video on her laptop.
Without a doubt, this is Yu Naixin's other roommate, Li Yuanyuan.
NPCs rarely have very distinctive appearances. Whether it's Lin Yuting or Li Yuanyuan, they are both so ordinary in appearance that they don't leave much of a mark. However, Li Yuanyuan's temperament is noticeably more gloomy, the kind that makes it obvious at a glance that she is aloof.
"Yuanyuan!" Lin Yuting greeted Li Yuanyuan warmly.
The response was very cold; Li Yuanyuan's gaze never left the laptop screen, and she gave a perfunctory "hmm."
Yu Naixin noticed that the title of the video Li Yuanyuan was watching was "How to avoid blood leakage when dissecting the heart".
Yu Naixin: "..."
The three people in dormitory 201 are all clinical students, so it's not particularly strange for them to watch this kind of video. But since this is a side program, Yu Naixin doesn't think it's just some ordinary NPC's personal preference.
The "experiment building" that corresponds to the Frankenstein's monster has already been introduced through Lin Yuting, and the "blood" mentioned in Li Yuanyuan's video happens to correspond to "the aerial roots of the banyan tree turning blood red at night".
The two roommates arranged by the production team are probably closely related to the terrifying rumors associated with the two guest stars.
Yu Naixin's gaze fell on the empty bed opposite Li Yuanyuan.
If this pattern continues, does that mean that when the third guest character from "Jishi Medical University" is officially born, she will also welcome her third roommate?
[! Did the female guest realize the purpose of these two NPCs with that look in her eyes?!]
[What a perceptive guest! They really can see the truth in just a glance or two!]
[This "Yao Ling" didn't even raise Li Yuanyuan's suspicion when she was examining Li Yuanyuan's computer screen! Viewers of "Jishi Medical University" know how sensitive Li Yuanyuan, the NPC, is; she notices the slightest movement. Yet, this female guest didn't even register it when they first started interacting!]
[Huh? What are the roles of these two NPCs? I don't see anything wrong with them. But judging from your expert analysis, the Little Witch is definitely awesome!]
Li Yuanyuan declined Lin Yuting's invitation for the three of them to go to the laboratory building together.
"I can go by myself." Her tone was icy, her eyes still fixed on the video.
Lin Yuting wasn't annoyed, just a little disappointed: "Oh, okay."
Then, she smiled and said to Yu Naixin, "Naixin, call me when you're ready!"
As if remembering something, Lin Yuting showed a somewhat conflicted expression: "Sigh, to be honest, I'm really scared to go to the lab building alone late at night!"
Lin Yuting couldn't help but complain, "Our school is too stingy. There are hardly any streetlights near the laboratory building. It's so dark that at night, all you can see is the shadow of that big banyan tree swaying in the wind. It's terrifying!"
