Delusion Master

Chapter 23 The Scientist Who Suicide

"Chasing me, chasing me, if you catch me, I'll let you hehehe..." The phone rang suddenly, and Wei Lin woke up from a deep sleep, rubbing his sore eyelids, and reaching out to touch the bedside table in pain.

"Hey, what's the matter." He closed his eyes like a half-dead fish spitting bubbles.

"Mike asked me to inform you, come to the treatment center immediately, there is an urgent task." The voice of my colleague Yan Yujiu came, as delicate as a drizzle on Tianjie.In addition to being a therapist, she is also an assistant to the director of the department, Mike Liu. She is usually responsible for uploading and delivering, and also makes tea for the leaders who come to inspect. Personal image, singing and dancing talents show the spirit of our department, which combines rigidity and softness." In short, it is a flower of interpretation in the department that only smells outside the wall.

"What kind of urgent task is it? It's only... four o'clock in the morning! You can't let people sleep." Wei Lin complained.

"The superior asked, what can I do, you hurry up." Yan Yujiu said coquettishly, "I still have to inform Bai Yuan."

"Bai Yuan? Are you going to partner with him again?" Wei Lin shivered and woke up completely.But before he finished speaking, the other party had already hung up the phone.

Wei Lin had no choice but to turn on the light and get out of bed to get dressed, wiped his face indiscriminately, drove out in a hurry, and rushed to the treatment center.Although the unit sometimes works overtime, it has never dragged people away with an urgent call in the middle of the night like this, and I don't know what imminent incident happened.

When the car passed the 24-hour McDonald's store, he turned into the fast lane and bought a beef burger set. After 3 minutes, the salesperson handed over the packaged meal bag, and his heart moved, and he said, "One more."

After rushing to the unit and parking the car, he ate a hamburger with Coke while striding towards the department, and met Bai Yuan who had just got off the car not too far away.Wei Lin handed over the meal bag smoothly: "Here, the return gift for the steamed stuffed bun soy milk."

Bai Yuan took it after being slightly startled, but said with disgust, "I don't drink carbonated drinks."

"I know, I ordered orange juice for you." Wei Lin shook the ice cubes in the Coca-Cola glass, "Choosy, I'm full of stink."

Bai Yuan wanted to retort, but he was soft-spoken, so he could just bear it.

The two finished their breakfast while walking, and came to Mike Liu's office.An old fat man with a Mediterranean bald head was sitting on a swivel chair with a backrest. He seemed to be in a bad state of mind, and was drinking strong tea from a stainless steel beaker.Seeing the two people coming in, he cheered up and said, "Thanks for your hard work. I have a very urgent task that must be entrusted to you to do. Make sure to complete it satisfactorily!"

This kind of thing is like a doctor going to the operating table, you can only do your best, how can you guarantee it 100%?Every time we can come back alive from the "absolute realm" without turning into a vegetable, it's already good!Wei Lin complained secretly, and asked, "What's going on?"

Mike Liu put down the big teacup covered with old pulp, and sighed deeply, even the fat on his chin twitched a few times: "Professor Cheng Lixin committed suicide."

"—Who?" Wei Lin didn't react for a while.

Bai Yuan interface: "National treasure-level geneticist Cheng Lixin? Why did he commit suicide? What does it have to do with our unit?"

Mike Liu replied annoyedly: "Our city government entrusted the relationship and spent a lot of money to hire him to give lectures at the Municipal Gene Research Institute for half a month. As a result, on the last day of the employment period, he took 300 sleeping pills, although he was rescued in the end. , but the person has been in a coma. According to the news from the hospital, I am afraid that Professor Cheng has no desire to survive, which caused a psychogenic coma. What do you call this? How can the city explain it to the National Academy of Sciences? ? If you just fall asleep like this, there will be a group of people from top to bottom who will be implicated, alas."

"What does it have to do with our unit?" Bai Yuan repeated with a cold expression.

Mike Liu knew that he had this kind of temper, but his professional ability was top-notch, so he didn't care about his disrespectful attitude, and explained: "According to Professor Cheng's personal doctor, he has been suffering from mild depression. Since half a year ago, the symptoms have become more serious, and I always feel that there is a problem with my research ideas, which leads to no substantial progress in my work. At the beginning of the year, a laboratory assistant died in a car accident. He also said that it was his own harm, and he should not give the other party too much Pressure, kneeling to the portrait in the mourning hall. And even more bizarre, last month... no, last month, I heard that he ran to the police station and surrendered, saying that the genetic project he researched led to the destruction of human civilization, and he committed a heinous crime , He deserved to die, and should be severely punished by the national law. The police were dumbfounded by him, and they regarded it as a genius eccentricity, and escorted him back properly."

"...It sounds like a symptom of self-guilt paranoia." Wei Lin touched his chin and sighed, "You said that he has won the Nobel Prize and appeared on the cover of "Time", so he can be said to be a great scientist standing at the pinnacle of his field. Why can’t you think about it like that.”

Fatty, his speech is always long-winded, without a point!Bai Yuan's patience seems to have been exhausted: "Even if he wants to treat the paranoia, it's his psychiatrist's business. He asked us to work overtime. There are regulations in the employee code that the brain should be developed for irrelevant things other than the failure of the experiment. Is it being treated by someone?"

McLeo was a little embarrassed when he hit his soft spot: "Of course not. It is reasonable to say that it has nothing to do with our treatment center, but... you also know that if you suppress it from above, you can treat it as a political task. But I can say it up front. -"

He lowered his face, and the already intimate facial features were squeezed together, making his face even bigger, like a thick pancake with multiple layers of ingredients: "If Professor Cheng's paranoia can be cured, of course it will be a consummation of merit; Not good, as long as people can wake up, I have an explanation to the superior. According to the optical brain calculation, this task is performed by the two of you as a partner, and has the highest success rate among the therapists in our unit. You two give me 12 points of strength and work hard .Successful, I apply to give you double, no, triple year-end bonus, if it fails...I will fire you both first, and then wait to be slapped off by the top, understand?"

Wei Lin and Bai Yuan looked at each other, and cursed at the same time in their hearts: Damn it!

However, in order to keep their jobs, before they plan to change jobs, even if they are reluctant, they must take this task and work hard to complete it.

"When will it start?" Bai Yuan asked.

"Right now. Professor Cheng has already been sent. You guys hurry to the treatment room and go into the electrode compartment after reading the materials. The longer he is in a coma, the weaker his brain waves are, and the lower your success rate is, so hurry up!" McLeo waved his hands like chasing flies, passing the pressure on to the two men.

Bai Yuan didn't want to take another look at that fat face, turned around and left.Wei Lin took the opportunity to bargain, how much he could compensate: "We want at least three of the best monitors, the best level of resources, and a week of paid leave after the work is done—no deductions for attendance."

"A week is too long for one day."

"What can I do in one day, I don't even get enough sleep, five days!"

"Beautiful thinking! Up to three days!"

"Three days is three days. Come on, give us a Lucky Star from Dad, what if it saves our lives?" Wei Lin blinked her round eyes and acted like a baby.

McLeo was the least resistant to his tactic, hesitantly opened the drawer, and took out a hexagonal crystal of unknown texture that emitted a crimson shimmer from the cipher box.The crystal is inlaid in the hollowed-out silver case, only the size of a fingernail.He had a painful expression on his face: "This is the treasure I have worked so hard to grind from my old classmate of the Aviation Administration Bureau. The cosmic matter extracted from the floating meteorite, use one less. You better not use it, you boy, give it to me when you come back." I will return to Zhao completely!"

"Thank you." Wei Lin took the hexagonal crystal, threaded it on a nylon rope from the glove box on his desk, and hung it around his neck.

Although these crystals are rare, McLeo also got a small bag containing at least seven or eight crystals.Originally thought that the alien matter in the old classmate's mouth was so powerful, after tossing and tossing, I realized that there was nothing special at all, that is, it was harder and more beautiful than the gemstones on the earth.He took it and inlaid it on the jewelry for his daughter, but in less than a day, the daughter came back angrily, threw an empty ring on him, and complained that her father made her make a fool of herself in front of her friends.

It turned out that the crystals were soluble in water. My daughter washed the handle under the tap, and the glowing ruby ​​ring turned into an empty ring holder. My friend teased her: You made it with rock sugar with Sudan red, right?She cried as soon as she went out.

It was only then that Mike Liu found out that he was cheated out of a big favor by his old classmate with the rubbish meteorite, and he was so angry.However, it looked fantastic, and it was a pity to throw it away, so I just put it in a drawer in the office.After that, the mosquitoes in his office disappeared. When the lights and windows were turned on at night in summer, termites did not dare to fly in.Mike Liu found that this useless thing finally came in handy, and at least it could save dozens of dollars for mosquito repellent.When others saw it and asked about it, he was inspired by his wife who was selling crystal gems at the counter, saying that it was a special mineral extracted from floating meteorites by the Aviation Administration, which enhanced this and this magnetic field, and that and that luck. A lot of favors have almost been paid back.

Even so, if he wanted to give it to Wei Lin for nothing, Mike Liu still felt as if he had been cut with a knife. Thinking about it, he regretted it, waved his hand and sighed: "Get out, get out!"

Originally, Wei Lin was afraid that he would go back on his word and snatch it back, so he left in a hurry.

Arriving outside the treatment room, Bai Yuan was carefully looking at the patient information on the holographic projection, Wei Lin quickly glanced at the text, and said to him, "I'll go in first."

After Li Minxing's mission ended last time, Bai Yuan found out Wei Lin's file and looked at it. He knew that after the development of his brain domain, he evolved basic spiritual power, including insight, memory, logical thinking, spatial imagination, etc. , is the most common balanced evolutionary, and has no special abilities.However, because all the values ​​were too high to exceed the standard, it was still rated as A by the headquarters.

From this point of view, he claimed to be able to see everything with one eye and never forget, but it is true. I really underestimated him last time.Bai Yuan thought silently, and walked into the inner room.

In the brightly lit room, three experienced monitors were already in place, and the rest of the staff were also busy checking and adjusting the equipment. It seemed that they had all been notified by the leader, and each of them seemed to be facing an enemy, and the air was filled with tension. .

There was only one Wei Lin, wandering around beside the electrode cabin doing gymnastics, forming a spectacular landscape by itself.

After entering the cabin, he suddenly sat up like a corpse, and said to Bai Yuan who was already lying down, "Hey, my right eyelid twitched so badly..."

The male employee next to him who checked the sensing interface for the last time replied smoothly: "The left eye jumps for money, the right eye jumps for disaster, you have to be careful."

"Don't engage in feudal superstition!" Bai Yuan rolled his eyes towards the closing cabin roof.

The darkness fell quickly, and Wei Lin muttered aggrievedly: "It's true."
