How to start Meursault

It's weird to be served a raw egg for breakfast in a prison in Europe...

It is also bizarre that the standard tableware is chopsticks.

No, it should be said that the name of a prison is called 'Meursault' itself is the most absurd thing.

He Jian barely ate a few mouthfuls of breakfast while coughing.

Today is the third morning after he woke up in Meursault's deluxe single room. His task of 'collecting world core data' is just over halfway, and all he does all day is eat and sleep with a numb expression. After eating, he didn't say a word, and didn't even give the cellmate a look——

When the encrypted conversation started over there, He Jianhui simply lay down and fell asleep.

Well, this routine is good for recuperation.

Let's wait until half an hour after the meal to rest today——

[Host, your world repulsion suddenly starts to soar! 】

The Zhengtai sound of 033 suddenly sounded in He Jian's mind.

Such a nervous tone?

'How much is it now?No, just show me the growth curve. ' he asked as calmly as possible.

Just like the display system mall before, the growth curve appears in the void that only He Jian can see.

This curve...was there world exclusion since he first entered this world and was still in a coma?But at the beginning, it grew almost along the horizontal axis.

It was less than 7% until last night, but since about three hours ago the slope of the curve has increased rapidly, almost like an exponential explosion, and it has soared to 40%.

etc--

Exponential explosion.

He Jian's mind went blank for a moment, and was quickly covered by many data models.

After a while, he stood up, leaned his head against the glass curtain wall, and started banging his head against the wall.

[Host, what's wrong with you! 】

He Jian didn't pay attention to 033 immediately, but took the initiative to speak to his two inmates for the first time.

"Sorry to bother you, did someone change my clothes when I came here in a coma?"

It seemed that they were attracted by He Jian's head-banging against the wall just now, at least Osamu Dazai and Dostoevsky heard He Jian's not-so-loud questioning voice.

By the way, the question is in English.

"Yes." Osamu Dazai gave no other information in his answer.

Hearing this answer, He Jian inserted his hands into his black curly hair while looking dead fishy.

"Then, it turns out that the person who changed my clothes was directly in contact with the non-isolated state." This time his voice was closer to talking to himself.

Then, He Jian sat down with his knees hugged, buried his face between his knees, and blocked the two thoughtful sights from behind.

【...Host, are you alright? 】

033 asked cautiously.

'I'm fine, I just feel so unlucky.No, could it be that this is the so-called luck of the protagonist?He will definitely be involved in various incidents or something. 'He Jian complained.

[Do you know what's going on? 】

'Let's guess. He Jian sighed in the real world, "First of all, I want to know something, 033, am I your first host?" '

【! 】

'It seems so. He paused before continuing, '033, do you know that the customs of a country usually have quarantine requirements?For example, people with obvious high fever will be required to be tested for infectious diseases, and some alien species that will cause ecological disasters will be blocked.The same logic applies across worlds. '

"Because Meursault's cell is isolated by supernatural powers, I actually forgot that someone might have had direct contact with me two days ago, and it has been at least five days now..."

The meaning of He Jian is quite clear.

The disease that killed him with a high fever in the original world has spread in this world.

[However, generally speaking, the restraining power of the world will not allow this kind of thing to happen!Host, you are an outsider after all, and you are suppressed by the rules of the world! 】

'This problem might not have happened in another world, so I said I was unlucky. He Jian said with a bit of bitterness in his tone, "The most important event that happened to Wenhao〇狗 right now is the worldwide spread of blood-sucking species, that is to say, the concept of 'spreading' is temporarily in line with the rules of this world, plus my body The virus normally causes mild, self-limited flu, presumably not very well suppressed. '

[But don't you have a high fever above 41 degrees Celsius? 】

'I am unusual.This virus will only cause severe effects on some meta humans, and it is only highly contagious to ordinary people.Since there was no turmoil in Meursault, and I was not arrested for autopsy, probably the supernatural powers in this world have nothing to do with genes. '

[Only for superhumans?How could there be such a virus? 】

'Man-made virus.There are quite a few pure humanists in the villain camp in my world. He Jian said lightly and said a lot of information.

After a while, 033 picked up the topic, wondering if he was secretly regretting his behavior of casually binding the host.

[Host, why did the world's exclusion rate start to soar only now? 】

'My guess is that the virus I brought was finally mixed with blood-sucking species.If you want to say which type of people in this world may be counted as the target of this virus, I think only blood-sucking species.The source of the blood-sucking species' infection is Japan, and I was in Europe. It took five days to finally cross, and it's not impossible. '

And this kind of confusion will obviously greatly affect the world line, so He Jian's world repulsion began to soar.

【Host, you seem very certain about your guess...】

033's tone was a little shaken.

'It is said that it is a meta human being, so it is normal to use some abilities to assist judgment.Moreover, being attacked by a virus feels like a daily routine in my original world, and similar curves are not uncommon. '

【Eh?Do you mean you have a way to solve this problem? 】

Zheng Taiyin suddenly raised his voice.

'If you are asking how to slow down the growth of world exclusion, there is nothing I can do. If you are asking about solving the virus problem I brought, then there are several solutions. '

'The most conservative plan is naturally to develop specific drugs and vaccines at the same time. If there are high-standard laboratories and drug production chains, I can quickly make the drugs I need, because I already have relevant data in the original world.Execution strength is not a problem, thanks to the "big command" such a team battle artifact.But the biggest flaw of this solution is that the time may not be enough. '

'A slightly evil way is to create a new virus with low toxicity but similar structure to compete for infection. This is actually a variant vaccine solution, and it can be targeted among blood-sucking species.High-standard laboratories are also required, but the drug manufacturing process is omitted. The problem that needs to be worried is that new viruses may lead to an accelerated rise in world rejection. '

'A more radical scenario would be to not interfere with the spread of the virus at all.To be honest, it is a blessing in misfortune that vampires are widely spread in this world. Asagiri Ka〇ka probably just wants some characters to have a reasonable reason to resurrect after death in battle, but the half-dead state of vampires Even if I get mixed up with a virus targeting meta humans, I won't die from a high fever like me, and it's probably just a decrease in combat effectiveness.And the most important thing is, according to the customs clearance route suggested by the original work, directly kill Bram Stoker or rewrite the reality with a book to restore all the created blood-sucking species to their original state, the basis for the virus to cause serious illness will disappear and return to normal low-virulence influenza.It's just that this plan means that I have to directly confront the five declines of heaven and man, which obviously also affects the behavior of the world line. '

In his opinion, the difficulties of the three plans mentioned by He Jian are actually the same, that is, how to complete the plan before being kicked out of this world, and the others are not particularly difficult.

But to 033 who doesn't know He Jian at all, these three plans all sound like a fantasy.

[...Can I choose the third option? 】

It hesitated for a while and said to He Jian.Assuming that the third plan can be completed, He Jian will have the opportunity to touch the pages of the book, which is the cornerstone of this world. In this case, He Jian still hopes to complete the task before being excluded from the world.

[Host, don't worry, if you fail, I will definitely report to my superiors that this is all my fault and I won't let you die. 】

He Jian paused for a second because of 033's words.

'Cause this level of disaster in the mission world, 033, your mission's top priority should be to restore the impact. ’ he said in his head in a declarative tone.

【Um.All explorable worlds have friendly agreements with the main system... so hosts can be arranged to enter.I didn't expect to make such a serious mistake on my first mission.Sorry to get you into such a troublesome situation. 】

In the exchange between 033 and He Jian, there was not a single word about what would happen if He Jian refused to deal with the virus infection, but both parties were very clear about the consequences.

If you refuse, you will surely die.

In fact, 033 feels that He Jian's chance of success is very slim, but in a sense, it is responsible for the current situation, because it signed the contract for He Jian without authorization.

——If it fails, even if it is sent to the recycle bin by the main system and shredded into garbage data, the host must be able to survive.

033 thought so.

' How about a little confidence in me? 'He Jian suddenly said in his mind.

'Death is as dear to me as a mother's arms, nothing to fear at all.Moreover, causing such a big disturbance outside, if my uncle finds out about it, he will be locked up in a mental hospital.Even for this, I will definitely solve the trouble and complete the task. 'His flat tone reveals inexplicable confidence.

[Host...] 033's electronic positive voice reveals a clear sense of emotion.

'That `s a deal. '

He Jian raised his head from between his knees, folded his hands and made a stretching motion, and then slowly stood up while supporting the glass curtain wall.

Although he was still coughing, his breathing changed little by little, from weak to stable.

Get into punching position and take a deep breath.

Then--

He couldn't even see the afterimage, but the face of He Jian's punch had already touched the glass curtain wall.

"Crash-"

The glass of the prison cell, which was obviously isolated by supernatural powers, shattered just like that.

"That's it, let's take a look around after a long time." He Jian withdrew his fist and said.
