Delusion Master

Bai Yuan was awakened by the echo of footsteps.He got up in the dark, held Wei Lin's hand, and looked towards the entrance of the underground station.

Wu Jinghan's figure appeared in the shaking beam of light.He had a flashlight under his arm and four emergency lights in his hand, followed by a middle-aged doctor in a white coat with a first-aid kit on his back.

Wu Jinghan put the emergency lights on high places and turned them on one by one, and the space was immediately illuminated by bright white light.

The middle-aged doctor saw the wet and dirty environment around him and shook his head.

Wu Jinghan introduced: "This is Dr. Shao, a surgical expert." Then he took a flat-panel X-ray tomography scanner from the doctor, and motioned Wei Lin and the two to take off their coats with metal buttons.

The instrument scanned from the top of the head to the soles of the feet, and made intermittent beeps in the abdomen.Wu Jinghan grabbed the handles on both sides and scanned repeatedly. Finally, the beep sound became clear and coherent, and he stopped there.

Wei Lin lifted the hem of his T-shirt and looked down at his bare belly: "In the navel?"

Wu Jinghan showed him the captured images.Wei Lin looked at the little red dot in the center of the screen, which was hidden in the subcutaneous tissue of the navel.

Bai Yuan underwent a scan and found a foreign object in the same place.

"Okay, Dr. Shao, please help us take it out." Wei Lin lay on the blanket very simply.

Dr. Shao said: "The light is barely enough, but the environment here is too bad, and it is easy to cause wound infection. Why don't you go up and find a clean place?"

"It's okay, it's here." Wei Lin replied nonchalantly, "It's just a minimally invasive operation, not as serious as Bai Yuan's injury."

Dr. Shao couldn't resist, so he had no choice but to agree and let the two lie side by side on the blanket.He put on a mask and sterile gloves, sterilized Wei Lin first, and injected local anesthetic. After the anesthesia took effect, he picked up the scalpel and hesitated for a while.

Wei Lin comforted: "Do the knife, doctor. This environment is much better than the previous field hospital, at least it won't drop a bomb at any time."

The sharp blades cut through the skin.Dr. Shao operated the knife with one hand, and pressed the edge of the incision with gauze in the other hand. The technique was very neat, and the blood flow was not much.

The thin skin around the navel quickly exposed the red dot that had appeared on the scanner screen, and doctors tried to peel it off but encountered unexpected obstacles.

Wu Jinghan acted as a temporary assistant and wiped the sweat from the doctor's forehead.

"What's going on?" he asked.

"This thing is a bit like a spider, with six 'legs' on the side, with barbs, locked between the muscles. I can't stop cutting those 'feet'." Dr. Shao said.

Bai Yuan sat up, frowning and looking at the wound Wei Lin was operating on.

Wei Lin interjected, "Then cut off the locked muscles."

"There are abundant blood vessels under the belly button. If there is too much bleeding, it will be difficult to stop. I did not bring an ultrasonic scalpel and a vascular closure device because there is no power supply." The doctor said angrily.

Wei Lin laughed: "You always have a solution. Director Wu said that you are a surgical expert."

Bai Yuan looked at Dr. Shao seriously: "Please do your best!"

Dr. Shao nodded: "I will."

He took a breath to stabilize his mind, picked up one of the barbed "legs", carefully avoided the blood vessels, and cut it off.

The small operation, which was originally expected to be completed in 10 minutes, took half an hour in the end, and an injection of anesthesia was added in the middle.Wei Lin was worried that the overspend would lead to insufficient anesthesia for Bai Yuan's next operation, and he kept trying to persuade the doctor not to give him supplementary needles.

Bai Yuan criticized with a black face: "Shut up, don't waste energy, or I'll knock you out!"

Then when it was his turn, Wei Lin put a large gauze on his belly and a bandage around his waist, and turned his head to retaliate: "Does it hurt? I told you to use it evenly. If it hurts too much, I'll knock you out instead? "

Bai Yuan: "..."

Wu Jinghan wiped the doctor's sweat eight times, and finally waited until the operation was completed with twists and turns.

After debridement, suturing, and bandaging, Dr. Shao treated Bai Yuan's previous wounds along the way. Dr. Shao took off his gloves and the soaked mask, and let out a long breath: "It feels more tiring than opening a chest."

Wei Lin fiddled with the two blood-stained trackers curiously.They are black metal objects the size of soybeans, with three jointed crochet needles on each side, which can firmly lock the flesh. They really look like a pair of ferocious little spiders.

Wu Jinghan wanted to destroy them, but was stopped by Wei Lin.

Wei Lin: "Who knows if it will explode or not when it is destroyed. Leave them here, even if the signal shielding fails, at least it can lead the organization to the wrong place, and it may come in handy at a critical moment."

Dr. Shao left two bags of anti-inflammatory drugs, accepted the agreed balance transfer, and left first.

Wei Lin and Bai Yuan didn't wait for the effect of the anesthesia to wear off completely, they got up to pack their things, and walked out of the underground station.

It was already dark outside, the wilderness was sparsely populated, there were no passing cars on the secluded road, and there was only a gleam of light in the distance, which was the civilized lights of the city, bustling and dangerous.

"What are you going to do next?" Wu Jinghan asked.

Wei Lin swung his stiff arm: "Rescue my colleagues and kill the behind-the-scenes organization."

Bai Yuan added: "Take out the neural chip in the experimenter's brain."

Wu Jinghan agreed: "I don't want to hide anymore, I want to avenge Minxing. So... we can form a small team again and fight side by side?"

Wei Lin smiled back and asked, "Aren't we always in the team?"

Wu Jinghan walked towards the off-road vehicle parked nearby: "Get in the car, I have prepared a safe place that no one will know, and I will take you there."

+ + + + + +

The place Wu Jinghan prepared was actually in the downtown area, not far from the information technology company he worked for, hiding on the basement floor of a commercial and residential building, which seemed a bit hidden in the city.

The place is very spacious. It was originally a non-mainstream bar. Later, it closed down and sold it at a low price. It was bought by Wu Jinghan. He planned to use it as the company's warehouse when he started his own business in the future. Unexpectedly, it came in handy in advance.

Now the inside has been simply cleaned and decorated, with newly purchased furniture and a few computers connected to high-speed optical fiber, and even a low-end version of the kitchen, gym and infirmary.Wu Jinghan improved the security system non-stop, Wei Lin and Bai Yuan enjoyed the treatment of the wounded, sat on the sofa drinking water to rest, and discussed countermeasures.

Seeing Wei Lin swallow the anti-inflammatory medicine dryly, Bai Yuan handed over the remaining half glass of juice: "Old rules, do you have a plan?"

"Of course." Wei Lin finished drinking in one breath, wiped the corners of his mouth, saw that Wu Jinghan was almost busy, and called him over.

The laptop on the coffee table is connected to a projector, and a large virtual screen is projected in mid-air.The three gathered together, with Wei Lin writing, and the other two supplementing at any time, and quickly worked out a preliminary plan.

"You two carry out the operation, and I will be in charge of logistics and technical support?" Wu Jinghan poked at the last item of the plan and asked a little dissatisfied.

"No," Wei Lin said, "You are also in charge of communicating with the police and the media. This is very important. Whether you can 'detonate' in the end depends on you."

Wu Jinghan thought for a while, then nodded and accepted the arrangement.

Wei Lin recalled that in Li Minxing's "absolute field", director Wu was good at flirting with sex, being alone, and playing with the wind. He made small calculations, but now he showed a very responsible side in reality.The reason for this is of course Li Minxing's misunderstanding of him, but it is also inevitable that Wu Jinghan himself changed because of Li Minxing's death.

"Then the action time is set at 11 o'clock tonight. Before that, everyone should have a good rest." Wei Lin said.

Bai Yuan got up: "I want to go out first."

Wei Lin asked, "What are you doing?"

"Propeller has been home alone for three days.

"Didn't you leave enough water and cat food?"

"If it stays alone for too long, it will become depressed. Maybe it will escape again and continue to be a stray cat."

Wei Lin laughed: "Okay, Mr. Shit Shovel Officer, I will accompany you to pick up Master Meow."

+ + + + + +

The two walked out of the basement and drove away Wu Jinghan's city SUV.

It is now close to 10 o'clock in the morning, and the sky outside is gloomy and windy, as if it is going to rain.

Before Bai Yuan could not help but drive Wei Lin to the passenger seat, even though he was driving with a paralyzed face, Wei Lin knew that there was no anesthetic, and his body was full of new and old wounds.

Wei Lin took out the painkiller and stuffed one into Bai Yuan's mouth.

At this moment, a white figure rushed out from the small alley by the side of the road, grabbed the lights and crossed the road, and was about to hit the front of the car.

Bai Yuan braked sharply, the hem of the man's white coat shook on the windshield and slipped down.

"Fuck!" Wei Lin swears, opened the door and got out of the car to check the situation.

The man fell in front of the wheel, wearing the white coat of a medical worker, with disheveled hair and bare feet.

Seeing that there was no blood on the other party's body, Wei Lin bent down and called out, "Hey, are you okay?"

Hearing the sound, the man raised his head and looked at him dazedly, revealing a pale and familiar face under his long hair.

Wei Lin was taken aback, and before passers-by came to watch, they carried her into the back seat of the car. "Drive fast!" He said to Bai Yuan.

"Wei Lin... Bai Yuan..."

Bai Yuan raised his eyes to look in the rearview mirror, and found that the person he nearly bumped into just now was actually Ye Hanlu.

The white coat she put on was in a mess, and underneath was a blue and white striped hospital gown. Her bare feet were full of stains and small scars, as if she had run a long distance without shoes.

"What happened?" Wei Lin supported her and asked, "Didn't Yan Yujiu ask you to go to the infirmary of the treatment center to find her ex-boyfriend when we parted the evening before yesterday?"

Ye Hanlu took a breath, and said weakly: "Well, Dr. Xu did cover me up. But it was useless. That night, all the monitors were forced to take medicine and then brainwashed. I was afraid that I would not be able to escape, so I asked Xu The doctor asked for a central nervous system stimulant and took it before brainwashing. It really induced epilepsy and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. They stared at me for two days, thinking that I had been unconscious, so I escaped without thinking What luck to hit your car..."

Ye Hanlu, who seemed gentle and weak, usually did not dare to disobey the will of her parents a little bit, but she could break out such a strong resistance at a critical moment, which made Wei Lin both distressed and admired, and quickly took off her coat and put it on her trembling physically.

"Do you know what happened to Yan Yujiu? What's the situation in the center now?" Wei Lin asked her.

Ye Hanlu clasped the skirt of her jacket tightly with both hands, and replied softly, "She was safe until I got sick. Later, when I was in the hospital, I heard the guard gossip about her..."

"say what?"

"It is said that she has someone above her, and she has been transferred from the logistics department to the administrative office. I am very worried about Sister Yu. This transfer is too sudden, and it feels very abnormal. Wei Lin, do you think she will be in danger?"

Wei Lin comforted her: "Yan Yujiu is very smart and will definitely protect herself. We will sneak into the center as soon as possible and rescue her."

Ye Hanlu shook her head again: "No, no, you managed to escape, don't go back! The other delusion-breaking masters are still locked in the electrode compartment. I don't know what the higher-ups want to do, but it's definitely not a good thing!"

Wei Lin touched the back of her head: "Leave these to us to worry about, and you have a good rest."

Bai Yuan said: "You send her back first, and leave the propeller to me."

Wei Lin didn't want to be separated from him for a second, but now that the soldiers are divided into two groups, it really saves time and trouble, so he agreed.

Bai Yuan left the car to him, hailed a taxi and continued to the villa.

Wei Lin drove Ye Hanlu, who was weak and depressed, back to the basement, intending to entrust her to Wu Jinghan to take care of her.He walked in with Ye Hanlu on his back, and put her on the sofa bed in the medical room. As soon as he straightened up, nosebleeds gushed out.

Wu Jinghan couldn't help teasing: "Why, getting too close to the beauty? Be careful to keep a distance, lest your vinegar bucket come back and flood my basement."

Wei Lin covered his nose with his right hand, whipped him with his left hand and pulled a towel, and went to the bathroom.

+ + + + + +

Nosebleeds continued, staining the sink red.Wei Lin felt dizzy like lack of oxygen, and the train in his eardrum went through the tunnel, rumbling.He tried his best to support his two exhausted arms on the edge of the basin, stared at himself in the mirror, and inhaled hard.

After a long tens of seconds, he felt better. He turned on the faucet and put a basin of cold water in it, and plunged his scorching, swollen head into it.He seemed to have an illusion—as if a red-hot iron had been pressed into ice water, white smoke was sizzling, and the blood vessels in his body were strongly constricted, almost convulsing.But if it is not cooled forcibly, the blood will rush into the brain like magma, and a hot pot of red oil will boil out in the skull.

Red oil hot pot, rich and exquisite ingredients, including bone broth, tempeh, dried chili, shallot, garlic slices, grass fruit, cinnamon bark, bay leaves, cumin...

Fennel, mainly produced in the northwest, is the dry and mature fruit of umbelliferae fennel, double-hanging fruit, cylindrical, with a specific aroma...spicy, warm in nature, recorded in "Medical Inventions" Tiantai Wuyao Powder, and black fennel Medicine, green skin, galangal, etc. are used together to treat cold colic and abdominal pain...

"Medical Inventions", written by Li Dongyuan in the Yuan Dynasty, and published by his disciple Luo Qianfu in the second year of Yuan Yanyou...

In the second year of Yuan Yanyou...

……

Countless information flitted through his mind, extending radially and infinitely.

From birth to the present, every picture he saw, every sound he heard, every detail in his impression... When he came to this world, all the information he received - from direct experience and indirect experience, What is in memory and subconsciousness—like an army of hundreds of millions, sweeping across the sky and covering the sky!

Wei Lin backed out of the water, fell to the floor with his wet head in his arms.

The text is writing rapidly, millions of words, tens of millions of words...

The formula is self-verifying, crazy calculation.

Machinery is being assembled and running.

Cities rise from the ground.

Countless light spots turn on and off, turn off and turn on again...

Wei Lin uttered an unbearable roar: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh——"

+ + + + + +

Wu Jinghan was shocked when he heard the cry suddenly.

He motioned Ye Hanlu to lie down and not get up, walked to the door of the bathroom by himself, knocked on the door: "What happened?"

"Wei Lin? Are you okay?!"

It was silent inside.Just when he couldn't help but want to knock on the door, Wei Lin's voice sounded hoarse: "It's okay, I'm panicked, let me vent."

Wu Jinghan suddenly thought of the mess of the brain control experiment, and Wei Lin was deeply involved. From his biological father to his adoptive father, to himself and his partner, it was simply a lingering curse. Hard enough.He sighed sympathetically, and comforted: "Relax Wei Lin, we will definitely solve all the problems, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

"I know." Wei Lin said.

Wu Jinghan stood for a while, made sure there was nothing wrong inside, and walked away.

Wei Lin sat on the floor of the bathroom, leaning against the toilet bowl with his back, leaning his head on the white cover, looking at the lights on the ceiling.

Many hazy overlapping circles of light swirled in front of his eyes, and he raised his arms exhaustedly to cover his eyes.

……time is limited.He thought enthralled.

——Like a vague metaphor, suddenly there is a clear and sharp outline.

+ + + + + +

At 12:[-] noon, when Bai Yuan came back with the propeller in his arms, a large plastic bag of cat food and lunch for four people, he found that Wei Lin was not in the basement.

The scratches on Ye Hanlu's feet were healed, and he fell asleep on the sofa bed.

"Where's Wei Lin?" Bai Yuan asked Wu Jinghan.

Wu Jinghan raised his face from the computer screen: "He said that the store he wanted to eat didn't have a takeaway service, so he went out to buy lunch."

Bai Yuan threw away the plastic bag and walked outside.

"He eats whatever he has, so he won't be forced by such a thing!"
