About Me Being Picked Up by Tallulah for Adoption

"Friend? Hug, I'm sorry... I can't be friends with you, I will forget your existence, and, more likely, I might... Hurt you, just like I hurt others before."

Rosemary buried her cheeks in the slightly loose Rhodes Island windbreaker.The tone is hesitant and cautious.

"Well, if that's the case—"

"Dr. Orson, what are you doing here? I remember Amiya told you before that the experimental surgery area in Rhodes Island requires an application to enter."

Orson was about to say something when Kelsey's voice suddenly came from the entrance.

"Dr. Kelsey? I just thought about going for a walk, but ended up here without knowing it. I'm so sorry!"

Orson put his hands together and apologized solemnly. Seeing the other party like this, Kelsey couldn't say anything more, but sighed and prepared to go back to call the monitor to see who didn't close the door casually. Hang up for another day.

Some gorefiend sneezed.

"Forget it, go back later and prepare for today's inspection, Dr. Orson."

"You...are an infected person?"

Hearing Kelsey's words, Rosemary poked her head out of her clothes and looked at Orson.

"That's right, I'm an infected person who came here to see a doctor. Next time I'm free, I'll show you a color ultrasound of my lungs. It's super cool! Even Dr. Kelsey called it a dick after seeing it— — Woo!"

Orson was knocked on the head by Kelsey in the middle of speaking.

"Don't make fun of your condition—then why are you hiding here?"

After reprimanding Orson, Kelsey walked up to Rosemary and asked the girl from the film group softly.

"...I accidentally destroyed the detection equipment before, and...injured the medical staff. Everyone is... afraid of me, I don't want to do this."

Rosemary spoke intermittently, she had somewhat forgotten what things she had destroyed before, but this fear and dread was still engraved in her heart.

"Rhode Island will not abandon you, and I promise, you will not suffer any harm here."

"..."

Kelsey's tone was calm, but unexpectedly full of unquestionable affirmation, which made Rosemary calm down a little.

"Dr. Orson, I'm in charge here. Please go to the upper area to rest for a while, and then prepare for routine testing."

"I see, that—take good care of her, Dr. Kelsey. There may be something special about her."

Orson looked at Rosemary, her "melody" - or the countless wailing sounds, which Orson had never touched before.

But Orson knew very well that Rosemary's situation was horrific. She wasn't at the level of tightrope walking in the sky at all. She had already fallen into hell, but she was still holding the last spider silk in her hand.

"I understand."

Kelsey nodded, and Orson was also preparing to leave this area that was not yet open to him

"See you later, Rosemary."

Orson and Rosemary waved hands, and then left the Rhode Island test area.

On the way, Orson met instructor Dubin. Dubin first asked about Orson's situation with concern. After all, Orson is a rare "operator" with both "excellent" and "excellent". Dubin also went to understand After learning about Orson's condition, he learned that the infection of the other party's ore disease was more serious than he thought, so he was very concerned.

"What's the situation with that operator, Instructor Dubin?"

On the way back to the room, Orson asked about Rosemary.

"Is she? I only know that she was brought to Rhodes Island by Kelsey from a laboratory in Columbia. She has terrifying Originium skills, but her mental state is extremely unstable. This month is the fourth time that she has caused a major facility. Destroyed, but this time it was still in the operating room, I heard that a patient with severe ore disease almost failed to be treated in time."

"It seems that the infected person is quite lucky."

The party Orson sighed so much.

"Kelsey thinks that even she can become an operator of Rhodes Island, but most members of Rhodes Island, including more than half of the elite operators, are opposed to this."

Dupin sighed.

"Rhode Island recently... I don't know how to describe it, it seems to be getting worse and worse, everyone's differences are getting bigger and bigger, and—ah, sorry, these things shouldn't be told to you."

Dupin suddenly found that these topics were not suitable for telling Orson, a "pure passerby who came to Rhode Island to heal his wounds".

"But everyone can see that what Kelsey and Amiya are carrying is too heavy. Although it is inappropriate to say this from me, and according to the non-disclosure agreement, I am not qualified to tell you , but—I think you have some kind of ability, Orson. The ability to pull Kelsey and Amiya back from the edge of the precipice.”

Dubin looked at Orson. Although she was called "very accurate" by many people, Dubin himself never felt that he had the power to tap the potential of others.

Everything is just a deduction of conclusions obtained from data and experiments—Dubin, who always held this idea, believed in Orson subjectively for the first time without enough data.

"Including the child you just asked—we can only give her a stable environment as much as possible, but if we want her to overcome the nightmare of the past and escape from hell... that person may be you, Orson."

Dubin looked at Orson, this short boy, in just a few times of getting along, he has already shown something, something... something that he can believe in and bless him for.

Rhode Island's lower level experimental operating theater section.

"..."

Rosemary, who was brought back to a separate room in the laboratory by Kelsey, wagged her tail slightly while staring at the blank notepad in front of her.

——Does what happened today need to be recorded?

Because her memory is always missing, Rosemary often holds a notebook and records some things in it.

After a short thought, Rosemary raised the gel pen, gently placed it on the diary and waved her wrist.

[I met an infected person today, he called himself Orson, and said he wanted to be friends with me]

【In addition, I was given a name for the first time—Rosemary】

After just two sentences, Rosemary looked at the paper that was no longer blank, and her mood lightened unexpectedly.

The girl from the film group, whose mind was always covered by the screams of "brothers", raised her head slightly, thinking about what kind of person Orson was.

After recording, Rosemary closed the notebook.Just as he was about to pass the long, hopeless time by staring at the light bulb on the ceiling, he saw Orson's familiar voice coming from outside the corridor.

"Is it Orson? Why is he here... eh?"

"Rosemary? We meet again, in short - help!!"

Rosemary stared blankly at Orson being tied on a stretcher and pushed into the infirmary, while Kelsey had a dark face.

A few minutes ago, Rhode Island Lounge Hall:

"At that time, Mr. Kosiche hired me, a five-star sauce, with a lot of money to fight against the infected in Chiecheng. Who is Mr. Kosiche? Men's clothes set the world, women's clothes set the world on the horse, got in the car and met the black senior assassin, got out of the car Can get the khaki off too."

The infected who came to Rhode Island from the Azazel Clinic met Orson on the way, and the two hit it off, the second in command of the integration movement, the silence in the north, and the tuner, so they started touring in Rhode Island again .

Orson on the stage took a sip of water and was satisfied. Although he vaguely felt that he seemed to have forgotten something, it shouldn't be a problem, right?

------------

"I told you to rest for a while to prepare for the physical examination. I didn't want you to go to the lobby of the lounge to talk about cross talk. Can you understand the difference, Dr. Orson the Dead?"

"The address has become so scary, Doctor Kelsey!?"

"...?"

Rosemary froze for a few seconds, then opened the notebook again:

[Orson was kidnapped to the infirmary by Dr. Kelsey with an angry face, it is said that it was because of the cross talk]

After writing this sentence, Rosemary froze for a moment. After all, no matter how you look at it, this sentence has nothing to do with the definition of "important things that need to be written down".

But since it's interesting to watch, why don't you... stay?

"The activity of Originium infection has decreased, the blood Originium concentration has not changed, and the somatic cell fusion rate is gradually decreasing—well, congratulations, Dr. Orson, your recovery speed is better than expected."

In the operating room, Kelsey held the tablet in his hand and checked the values ​​on it one by one. After confirming that there was no problem with the data, he reopened the monitoring system and access control of the operating room.

"Dr. Kelsey, why do you have to temporarily block the network in the operating room every time you have a physical examination?"

Orson asked curiously while pressing the pinhole.

"Because the content of your medical examination is top secret."

Kelsey responded briefly, and at the same time encrypted Orson's medical report separately.

"Due to your physique, your recovery speed is very fast. Although the origin stone in your body will not be cleared quickly, it is also weakening."

"constitution?"

"You inherited a part of her existence, so you also changed a part of your structure. The difference between your weird somatic cell infection rate and blood origin stone concentration is an example. As for the reason for this situation, I can't tell you for the time being .”

"It's also because of the non-disclosure agreement and the top secret?" Orson asked curiously.

"No, it's for your safety, Dr. Orson."

Kelsey responded calmly, without any dodge in her eyes.

"You—no, the existence of 'Doctor' itself is one of the foundations of Rhode Island's existence, not only the PRTS system and her command ability. Rhode Island has previously encountered information leaks related to 'Doctor' , and the final result of that time was that she was wounded and entered the sarcophagus, and finally—disappeared from this land, and a part of the legacy was integrated and transcribed into your body."

The atmosphere became a little heavy. Although Orson didn't know the oath that Kelsey made in his heart to protect himself, he more or less guessed that the relationship between Kelsey and the doctor was definitely not just a "colleague". For the disappearance of the doctor, Kelsey will definitely attribute the main responsibility to himself.

Orson didn't know what to say at this time, but at this moment, the door of the operating room was pushed open, and the supreme leader of Rhodes Island whose ears occupied one-third of his height, the little rabbit Amiya entered the operation room, with a flustered expression.

"Doctor Kelsey, it's not good...!"

"Calm down, Amiya. You need to control your emotions. Fear is the catalyst that keeps us focused, not the factor that affects our behavior. What's wrong?"

Kelsey signaled Amiya to calm down with a flat face, and then asked why the little rabbit was so flustered.

"Rhode Island's source stone reserves are almost exhausted, but there is still some time before the scheduled replenishment time... What should we do now?"

Amiya frowned and asked Kelsey helplessly, and Orson raised his eyebrows after hearing what Amiya said.

Why is such a small problem such a fuss?Isn't Ursus next door the largest source stone production area in the entire Terra, just buy some casually.

"This kind of thing should be nothing—wow, Dr. Kelsey, your reaction is so great!?"

Orson looked at Kelsey calmly, and was taken aback by the other's expression of "Shocked Mao Maotou.jpg".

"Is... is it so serious, this problem?"

Orson cautiously stretched out his palm and shook it in front of Kelsey, the latter came back to his senses, shook his head, and tried to change himself back to his original omniscient appearance with trembling ears .

"Olsen, this is indeed a very serious problem... Although Rhodes Island can achieve self-sufficiency in the internal circulation of most resources, only the source stone that is used as all power must be purchased, and according to our months Judging from the previous financial budget statement, there is still nearly two months left before the next time I have the funds to purchase Origin Stones..."

Amiya said in frustration, even her ears drooped, and it could be seen that this situation was indeed an extremely urgent situation for Rhodes Island.

"So in the final analysis, is it because of insufficient funds? I didn't expect the major crisis that Rhodes Island encountered to be such a thing..."

Orson also sighed. Although he had guessed that Rhodes Island encountered some emergency and had to dig out Swordsman before, but when he found out that the reason was "no money", it was an incomparably realistic reason. After all, it is inevitable that there will be a sense of disillusionment.
