Restricted Doomsday Syndrome Chapter 1140: Hospital chain
Doctor Ruan Li rubbed his temples. Recently, the amount of data transmitted by "Super Dorothy" has been several times larger than in the past. Everyone is busy looking for patterns from it, interpreting the phenomenon reported by the data, and being a lurker organization A member of the research team, she is naturally no exception. What's more, she is a newcomer who has just been absorbed. If she fails to make achievements, even if the lurker organization will not pursue troubles, other people in the same research team will inevitably treat her. Have doubts about his professionalism. Although the research direction of this research team is different from that of the team led by Dr. Ander, the researcher's own temperament will not change, and no one is willing to accept someone who can't help them. Dr. Ruan Li is not a funder, nor a research leader. She is only responsible for her own part of the project. However, there is still controversy as to whether she is suitable for this part of the project.
Dr. Ruan Li did use the resources of the laboratory to make a certain contribution during this period. However, whether he has the ability to become the host of a project is still in the wait-and-see stage. Of course, the benefits promised by the lurker organization are not It will be cancelled or reduced, but for researchers, presiding over a project and becoming a handyman for a project are naturally very different in terms of their own affirmation.
Everyone is convinced that their own research is very important, and it must be an indispensable link for the overall research goals. However, the fact is that it will not change because of this confidence. To make people affirm their own results, they must first make results. Like other researchers, Dr. Ruan Li does not feel that the current research progress can be described as "results." Everyone's identities are all employees of the "hospital", and they can rely on the intelligence organized by the lurkers to understand the progress of Dr. Ander's team to a certain extent. On the whole, everyone can accept the fact that their progress is slightly behind, and the competitive mentality that arises from this. It is difficult to accept a research member who is "not strong enough."
Dr. Ruan Li is naturally confident in his research strength and research direction. However, whether he can get enough time in a study will not be shifted by his own judgment. The situation was brushed out in the research because it was unable to achieve results in a short period of time. In her past work, she has seen it many times, and even happened to herself twice—this has nothing to do with her own ability, but only whether she can adapt to the standards in a specific environment. The philosophy of survival of the fittest can be seen everywhere. .
The more embarrassing the research, the more restrictive the restrictions. Before joining the lurker organization, Dr. Ruan Li understood that if he could accept, "You cannot enter the Dr. Ende team. You can only use marginal figures. In the situation of participating in research with the identity of the "individuals", of course, there is no need for such labor. In fact, even Dr. Ande’s team has never put pressure on Dr. Ruan Li. It's just that, as a researcher, the weirdness of the things being studied, and the sensibility aroused by close contact with Gao Chuan. All made her unable to accept that she was marginalized. She wants to know the nature of "virus" and the meaning it represents. Fulfilling the responsibility of a doctor, and going further, to achieve achievements that shocked the world, these curiosity, sense of responsibility, and enterprising are the reasons why she joined the lurker organization when she knew the danger.
Although the lurker organization is limited by the activity environment. It is not possible to provide a research environment of the same standard as that of Dr. Ander's team. However, in terms of the size of the research team alone, the current equipment owned by the research team is not far from that of Dr. Ander's team. Possibility to catch up. Even if he doesn't care about the eyes of others, Dr. Ruan Li doesn't want to waste these conditions that are many times better than before.
Dr. Ruan Li needs to complete the work of the "hospital" during the day. Although the main management responsibility has been removed after Gaochuan disappeared, he only needs to manage other less special patients on a regular basis-this is also a symbol of marginalization ——However, during the recent period of time, the deterioration of the patients is also very difficult. Dr. Ander’s team does not expect her to make any substantial breakthroughs, but it only counts the patient’s data and writes regular reports that match her own identity. , The workload is also full. Precisely because he has both the identity of the hospital employee and the identity of the research member of the lurking organization, Dr. Ruan Li can see the clues of the current deterioration on the timeline.
The damage and reorganization of Super Dorothy, the sudden deterioration of collapse when the laboratory observed abnormal conditions, and even the patient's mania during this period, showed a kind of continuity. For the research team, this kind of continuity requires further proof and dissection, and, although for research, abnormalities are more pleasant than no changes, this kind of explosive and unsolvable deterioration , But it still gives people tremendous pressure. What they are studying is a “virus” that has never been seen before, and it is definitely not weaker than any known malignant virus in terms of lethality. No matter what the cause of the outbreak, there is a great risk of death. of. In the face of "viruses" in any sense, identity is not enough to guarantee safety. The only thing that can make you feel safe is to find a way to crack the "virus" as soon as possible and create serum and resistance drugs.
Everyone is rushing for time, not solely for the research of conceptual confrontation, but also to save their own lives. Experts who can enter the research team understand that once this "virus" appears to be in the wrong place, even The combined defense forces of the hospital and the lurking organization are definitely not enough. The only thing that can prevent the spread of disasters is probably the nuclear bomb. No, maybe even the nuclear bomb can’t solve the problem, because this "virus" The existence of, makes people feel that it has gone beyond the field of mass-energy formulas in today's science. This is also the most attractive part of the "virus". As long as some of the essence can be glimpsed, it makes people feel that it will make a breakthrough contribution to the limitations of today's science.
This race is not just about personal honor or disgrace.
A huge amount of data is rolling on the screen, and the temperature of the server in a low temperature environment is constantly increasing. These states will be reported at regular intervals before reaching the critical point. With the increasing pressure on the server, the mechanical sound of the report has become more and more frequent. Although it makes people feel annoying, no researcher will propose to shut it down. This is not the first time that the situation has happened, and more and more details make the researcher's face gloomy. If you want to adapt to stress, you must have a general understanding of stress, and the increase in stress now probably has gone beyond the scope of adaptation of many researchers-Dr. Ruan Li looked around at his colleagues and couldn’t help but think of it. .
Doctor Ruan Li's condition is better than most people, because... She may not be the one with the strongest adaptability, but in terms of psychological adjustment, she is the one with the most ability. She is not the only psychology expert in the team, but she has always believed that she is the strongest one in the aspect of clinical adjustment-she couldn't help but not have the self-confidence and had the experience of getting close to Gao Chuan. Let her have such confidence. Without the experience of getting along with that child for a long time, it is impossible to understand how much pressure Gao Chuan's abnormality will bring to the person in charge. It is not simply pressure at work, but when people get along with each other, when they try to understand each other, it is also a kind of unfounded association that arises from the abnormal state of the other person. If you can be indifferent to these, then. It is impossible to be the person in charge of this patient—the hospital is not a place where people are gilded. In terms of the particularity of the patient, there is no pressure. It can also be explained as not having the motivation to meet the standards. And unmotivated researchers are not worthy of trust.
The hospital has condensed the most whimsical ideas that Dr. Ruan Li has made since his work. The special nature of the "virus" makes it impossible to find a way from low-end science, but all high-end science. There are many unsubstantiated assumptions. Even if the work here strictly follows scientific research methods, when it comes to specific situations, it often breaks the conventional scientific way of thinking and uses imagination as a breakthrough. Every little progress. It may seem that it is not so scientific. Of course, whether these "progresses" are really progress, perhaps more precise examples are needed to prove it, but if there is not even this degree of "progress", we can only say Can't do anything.
Doctor Ruan Li, like everyone else, is groping in the dark. The research object does exist. All researchers must affirm this. However, on the other hand, all researchers have to think that research The subject seems to be quite far away from the field reached by science today. This kind of remoteness is just a feeling. No one can be sure how far it is. No one can be sure of what is still in the dark. If you want to understand it, you must find a way in the dark—perhaps, this way. There is too much uncertainty, and every point on the road is still in an incomprehensible state, but as long as you can get to the "virus" through it, it will do. As long as it is determined that this road can reach the goal, and then go back and study what happened on this road, it is still too late. And if you can't get to the "virus", everyone will have big troubles, and people will feel terrible big troubles with just a hint of association.
This is not a situation where you have obtained a Pandora's Box and opened it by yourself—this Pandora's Box has been opened by yourself, regardless of whether people want it or not, and it does not depend on people's wishes at all.
The mechanical report came again, and the sudden increase in the malignant state seemed to have slowed down. Dr. Ruan Li could judge that those people who acted indifferently were actually relieved. In this suddenly relaxed atmosphere, she unplugged the data disk, encrypted her proprietary work terminal, talked to other colleagues, and left the secret research room.
On the way back, there are strong security measures, and there are not many people responsible for it. However, letting the returnees lose their position in the research room is the first criterion. Dr. Ruan Li guessed that these secrecy measures were formulated and implemented by "Super Dorothy". After the elevator door is opened, you go out to the hospital building where your office is located. Although many details indicate that this elevator that runs through the building is closely connected to the hidden research room of the lurker organization, but if there is no identity verification, it is also It’s impossible to get there by elevator—according to the feeling when returning, the research room is probably in the basement of this building, but Dr. Ruan Li knows very well that this feeling is very unreliable. If the confidentiality of the research room is only This level has long been discovered by the "hospital".
Although I have guessed that the "hospital" has mastered the hiding place of the lurker organization on this island, this kind of guess is still just a guess. Dr. Ander must know the existence of the lurker organization. However, from the time when the two identities have been continuously converted, Dr. Ruan Li has such a feeling that Dr. Ander is not clear about the specific situation of the lurker organization. The information he has about the lurker organization. They are all lagging behind in timeliness. The "hospital" has been infiltrated, and it is very serious. Although the large network woven by the lurking organization cannot shake the foundation of the existence of the "hospital", it is even impossible to participate in the research of the "hospital" in a normal way. Unless an external force is used to carry out a strong attack, the foundation of the lurker organization cannot be shaken. Even if external forces try to interfere in the internal structure of the "hospital", there will be resistance from external forces.
This feeling makes Dr. Ruan Li no longer feel as worried as he was when he was just determined to join the lurker organization. All the downwind states are relatively speaking, and the background of the lurker organization is no worse than that of the "hospital". Where to go, just. Before the situation breaks the balance, all parties have enough patience to wait.
I am afraid that for the people living on this island, the threat posed by the "virus" itself is much higher than the threat posed by the state of internal forces and the state of external forces. When she arrived in the office and turned on the computer to receive new emails, this feeling became more and more heavy. When she was working in the research room of the latent organization, several more hospital staff showed signs of infection. . Among them are not only ordinary staff, but also front-line researchers. Those defensive and management measures that have been constantly reformed have never been able to truly isolate the threat of "virus" within the laboratory.
Everyone knows that it is impossible. Too much evidence proves that the "virus" has long been spread in the air. When a person will get sick is just a probability. It has nothing to do with human physique, and even those measures that are more comforting than practical. Everyone in the hospital may become a patient at any time, and this probability is not much different from outside the island.
Maybe the next one is yourself? After Dr. Ruan Li responded to the email with a heavy heart. Turn off the computer. Starting tomorrow, the number of patients I need to manage will increase again, and among them, there will be people I know. This is not a happy job. She glanced at the sky and decided to stop working tonight and give herself some rest time, otherwise, her body might collapse first in the increasingly heavy work. As a doctor, she has high requirements for self-management, and, at least in terms of mentality, a good body makes people feel that their chances of getting sick are reduced. She didn't want to change from a researcher to a subject. Too many cases told her how painful and desperate it would be if she had the doomsday syndrome.
When Dr. Ruan Li left the office, the light of the setting sun was spilling on the corridor, like a piece of golden sand, full of the freshness and beauty rarely seen in the city, even though the island is not so beautiful, there are too many artificially transformed places, but , The sky without industrial pollution will still exude intoxicating luster and color at certain moments. If my job is not to face such terrible things, I am afraid that the mood at this time will be the same as on vacation. When she deliberately did not think about the research topic, other slightly soft and sensual thoughts quickly flooded her mind. She enjoyed this sensual divergence very much. It can be said that this is the most in her time. A relaxing moment. Even the heavy footsteps seemed to become lighter.
However, such a good mood was broken by a burst of noise when Dr. Ruan Li first stepped out of the building. A bunch of people were leaping in her direction. It was a group of people chasing another group of people. There was a fierce fight between the two sides. Some people were shot directly and rolled on the ground. This chaos came too suddenly. Before that, no one seemed to have thought about shooting. They huffed and appeared from a corner, and just a few blinks, they had fallen into a violent and dangerous state. Dr. Ruan Li could tell at a glance that it was a group of mad doomsday patients. The security personnel responsible for the safety of the hospital were naturally chasing them. They said that they could be guards or soldiers. They were uniformly dressed and equipped with highly comprehensive equipment. At night, he even appeared in every angle of the hospital as a special soldier. The area of the hospital is theoretically the entire island, but these security personnel are basically only in charge of places with a large number of people, but if they receive an order, they will chase the target to any inaccessible place on the island.
Doctor Ruan Li is naturally unable to judge the combat effectiveness of these security personnel, but she knows very well how dangerous the mad doomsday patients are, that is definitely an existence that ordinary people cannot match. They are like hormones, their activity ability is fully improved, and they are terribly aggressive. When they are swarming, they cannot be intercepted even with firearms, because the physical fitness of these patients will become similar to ordinary people during the worsening stage of their illness. It's not the same-even if the deadly parts of the heart and brain are hit by penetration, they will not die in the first place, but once injured by them, there is a high possibility of infection. This chance is about 10% higher than the chance of a sudden illness. No one wants to experience it personally.
Ordinary people, even ordinary soldiers, cannot cope with such a large group of mad patients. If they are involved, the danger will rise sharply. Dr. Ruan Li immediately returned to the building and opened a room with his eyes and hands quickly. The sound of footsteps had already followed, and as soon as she closed the door hard, she heard a loud crash—the patient slammed into it, and the door locks were twisted, followed by more intense gunshots.
Dr. Ruan Li didn't hesitate, and before the next impact, he pushed a heavy object such as a cabinet to block the door. Just after finishing this, the glass window of the room was smashed through. Several patients reached in with their teeth and claws, seeming to want to remove the entire window. Dr. Ruan Li picked up the glass jar on the table and smashed it hard. The patients were counterattacked and their movements were even more frantic. However, they were not very active because they were crowded together, and they were quickly sifted by bullets from the other end of the corridor. Then, they struggled for a while, and then gradually disappeared.
The crazy scene made Dr. Ruan Li's heart beat violently. Although it is not the first time he has experienced such a sudden situation, he can't say that he can get used to it anyway.
Doctor Ruan Li stepped back slowly. Although he didn't actually waste much physical energy, he felt very tired mentally, and it seemed that the strength of the whole body was almost gone. She sat on the table, waiting for the security staff to declare safety. The screams and gunshots lasted for a quarter of an hour, during which a patient jumped from a higher floor~IndoMTL.com~Doctor Ruan Li saw her walking with a broken leg and fled in another direction as if she didn't feel any pain at all-saying yes. "Fleeing" may not be appropriate. In Dr. Ruan Li's research, these crazy patients have no actual sense of fear, even on an instinctive level. Their activity patterns do not change because of their mood swings, just like something is guiding their actions, but in terms of the details of their activity status, they do not have clear goals and plans. To put it simply, it is similar to the situation of "they feel that they should do what they should do, but they don't know how to do it". They are born as human beings, and the logic of their behaviors obtained by receiving education has been reduced to a freezing point, but in terms of sensibility But it is extremely strong, and it is often negative and extreme. It seems that at this moment, they have all become natural saboteurs. They want to do things that are completely irrational. No matter what they do, they will have only one result-spontaneous combustion.
The patient who jumped down from the stairs, broke his leg, and was still running with the broken leg, as if he was unconscious. He had just thrown less than ten steps, and a flame suddenly appeared on his body. So it turned into a ball of fire in the sunset. The burning woman ran for another distance before she fell to the ground. The scorched body melted at a speed visible to the naked eye.
She's done. Dr. Ruan Li confirmed in his heart. This way of death, in all senses, is more thorough than simply transforming into it. It is a type of deterioration that cannot be recycled and used. It is also the most important situation to be avoided in the research so far. (To be continued...)
