Chapter 351 Back to Reality (2) - Si Zhong's Explanation
Seeing her pale face, the nurse quickly comforted her:
"Don't worry, it's probably because of your illness. You'll remember everything once you're better."
"Really?" Ning Shu looked at the nurse with hope.
"Of course, Professor Su is the best doctor, he can definitely cure you!" the nurse assured her confidently.
"Well... here you go, thank you." Ning Shu handed the personal terminal back to the nurse, who took it.
Oh right, the game—she's going to call the police! Ning Shu suddenly remembered this.
"Can you call the police for me? I have something to say to the police."
"Call the police?"
“The police came yesterday, and Mr. Si just spoke with them. If you have anything to say, please let him speak for you. You need to rest.”
Mr. Si? Or Mr. Si Zhong?
He was the only person she knew whose name was associated with the character "司".
He came out too?
The door opened again, and a familiar figure walked in.
Ning Shu looked and, sure enough, it was Si Zhong!
"Si Zhong? What are you doing here?"
Si Zhong walked over, pinched Ning Shu's little cheek, and said with a smile, "If I'm not here, where should I be? Didn't you take me out of the game?"
Ning Shu was bewildered. Had she brought him out?
She tried to recall, but couldn't remember. After all, she couldn't even remember her parents' phone numbers, so it seemed that this injury was quite serious.
Si Zhong asked the nurse to leave first, then pulled Ning Shu to sit down. He frowned when he noticed that Ning Shu was uncoordinated.
"It seems your body hasn't recovered very well; you still need some time for recuperation and exercise."
Ning Shu was still struggling with the fact that she hadn't remembered to tell him about it.
Si Zhong waited for her to sit down before speaking: "You didn't tell me directly, you told Li Mengqi and asked her to pass the message down one by one."
After you left, her level didn't meet the requirements, so she thought it was more appropriate for me to leave first and told me.
I came out a few days after you and found you unconscious somewhere, so I rushed you here.
Is that really the case?
That was indeed what she instructed Mengjie to do. Unexpectedly, the first person Mengjie chose after her was Sizhong.
"What did you tell the police after you called them? Were they able to rescue the others?"
Si Zhong shook his head: "What exactly happened after you came out? Why did you faint in the middle of nowhere? If I hadn't escaped in time, you probably would already be..."
The sentence wasn't finished, but Ning Shu understood the meaning behind the second half.
"I don't remember how I escaped, and what about the police..." Ning Shu was still struggling with this question.
"We were too slow. By the time they went back to look for them, they had already disappeared."
But they promised to continue the search and would notify us as soon as they had any news.
Don't worry, the others will definitely be rescued too.
Si Zhong hesitated for a moment, then instructed Ning Shu: "Also, this matter is very serious and seems to involve some important figures."
To avoid alerting the suspects, the police set up a special team to handle the matter.
Don't go around yelling about it to everyone, even other police officers; you'll be targeted.
Ning Shu also understood the implications; creating such a massive and complex game required considerable manpower, material resources, and financial resources.
This is certainly not something an ordinary person can do.
She was just an ordinary person, and it was indeed difficult for her to fight against such a behemoth; she could only wait for an opportunity.
Si Zhong knew that Ning Shu had taken his words to heart: "What you need to do now is to recover your health as soon as possible, so that you will be able to help others, understand?"
Ning Shu nodded.
Si Zhong: "Then you sit down first. I'll go out and get you some food, and then I'll have the doctor come in and tell you how to recover."
Ning Shu obediently followed the instructions, after all, her mind was in complete chaos.
The so-called food that Si Zhong brought back turned out to be several test tubes containing liquids of different colors.
Ning Shu recognized it; it was nutrient solution.
She took the bottle and finished both in a few gulps, somewhat puzzled: "Why am I so badly injured, while you're perfectly fine?"
Si Zhong found it amusing: "Isn't this the question I just asked you? Besides, it's not like I'm completely unaffected."
When I first left the game, I wasn't feeling well, but after resting in the hospital for a few days, I felt much better.
Do you know how many days you've slept?
Ning Shu shook her head.
"You've been asleep for half a month, it scared me to death."
She actually slept for so long! Ning Shu remained silent.
After waiting for a while, a doctor named Su Nan walked in.
After hearing the other person's self-introduction, Ning Shu recalled the voices she had heard and realized that he must be the "Professor Su" mentioned in those voices.
The professor was around 50 years old, handsome and refined, with a kind face, perfectly embodying the image of a doctor.
Ning Shu instantly felt a bit of goodwill towards the other person.
Su Nan glanced at Ning Shu's medical record: "How are you feeling, Miss Ning?"
"I feel dizzy, my body feels strange, and I always feel weak."
"Then I'll have someone give you a physical exam first."
After Su Nan finished speaking, she called in a young female doctor.
Ning Shu recognized the voice as soon as the other person spoke; it was the same voice she had heard when she was just about to wake up.
Su Nan instructed the other party: "Xiao Guo, take Miss Ning to get a physical examination first, and then bring the report to me."
The girl named Xiao Guo nodded in agreement and followed Su Nan out of the ward. When she returned, she was pushing a wheelchair.
"Miss Ning, let me help you into your wheelchair."
Si Zhong stood up: "I'll do it."
After saying that, he picked up Ning Shu, put her in the wheelchair, and adjusted her sitting position to make her more comfortable.
Xiao Guo led the way, while Si Zhong pushed her wheelchair behind her.
Ning Shu remained silent the entire way, only looking around at the hospital environment.
This hospital exudes a sense of technology everywhere; if I had to describe it in two words, it would be—cool.
She never imagined that one day the word "cool" would be used to describe a hospital.
The instruments used to examine her were all strange, and she didn't even know what kind of examination she was undergoing.
When she was nervous, Ning Shu even subconsciously grabbed Si Zhong's hand.
Si Zhong seemed to sense her tension, so he squeezed her hand back and kept comforting her.
"It's nothing, it's just a routine physical exam. I had the same exam done."
Whether it was his words or not, Ning Shu's tension lessened considerably, and she cooperated well with all the examinations.
Xiao Guo asked Si Zhong to take Ning Shu back to her ward first, while she stayed behind to wait for the test results.
While waiting for the report, Ning Shu continued chatting with Si Zhong: "Have you found your family?"
Si Zhong paused in his apple-peeling motion. "Yes, my brother."
Oh, so his brother is still around.
She had always thought his brother was dead. Luckily, she didn't ask him about it in front of him, or she would have been incredibly embarrassed.
