Chapter 124
Whether it was a medical researcher or the guards of the Free Legion, they were all silent in front of Lin Jingshu and did not dare to say a word.
Dr. Harden looked at her with a strange look: "Jingshu, do you know what you are talking about?"
Lin Jingshu's eyes were bloody and soon disappeared again. Her tone softened: "It's nothing, Grandpa Harden, I'm sorry, I'm just angry. The living dead are better than the dead, right? We don't know..."
"No, you know," Dr. Harden's rare attitude became tough. He pushed his back from the wheelchair and said hoarsely, "You know, you are as smart as Laura. Do you not know what 'living' means and what 'dead' means? Except that corpses that can breathe are a little better than bones, what is the difference between burying in an ecological cabin and burying in a grave? You are afraid, you are afraid that he will wake up, you are afraid that you are afraid that you are facing him, you are afraid that you are still afraid that you are facing yourself, you just want to..."
With a light "click", Lin Jingshu turned on the anti-slip and fixed Dr. Harden in place.
The wheelchair was slightly shocked, and Dr. Harden hurriedly held the armrest.
"Here, I have the final say, Doctor." Lin Jingshu's mouth gently lifted the corner, and the sharp corner became a sharp angle. Then, she stood up, looked deep into the isolation door of the laboratory, and said word by word, "I said, maintain, maintain, present, the situation--Okay, wait until his situation is more stable, come and tell me immediately that Dr. Harden is old, you can send him back to rest early, and don't let him sit here all the time."
"Jingshu, that's your wishful thinking," Dr. Harden seemed to have made up his mind to get along with her that day. "Where is he? What about him if he refuses to maintain the status quo, what are you going to do? Will you kill him with your own hands?"
Lin Jingshu paused.
Dr. Harden said: "This world cannot revolve around someone's will. No one is a god, no one can control everything. Jingshu, do you still understand at this point?"
Lin Jingshu ignored him, lit the ground with her thin high heels one by one, and walked away.
She thought Lin Jingheng was trapped in the Eighth Galaxy just because he was tight at the moment. He was only targeted by the maggots because he was too busy to get out of the trap. So as long as the entire pool of water was mixed up, he could take the opportunity to get out of the trap.
She thought she had chosen an excellent opportunity, and directly shattered the fragile umbilical cord between the alliance and the central army in various places, causing the entire alliance to fall apart. The people who had no support to learn that there was no hope of restoration in the Garden of Eden, so they could only throw themselves into the arms of opium.
But everything went against my wishes.
Lin Jingheng is a general of the alliance, holding the uniquely gifted card of the Ten Silver Guards. As long as he thinks, there is no position he cannot play in the eight galaxies, inside and outside the domain, and no one he cannot kill, Lin Jingshu can't figure out what he was defeated, and he can actually make a good card into this virtue.
Two years ago, when the Liberty Legion could have expanded rapidly and had no scruples, her biggest obstacle was not the Alliance and the Central Army, nor the other pirates, but the damn Ten Silver Guards!
Through her base, resummon the Silver Ten Guards!
Why?
Did Lin Jingheng guess that the person behind the Freedom Legion was her? Lin Jingshu was unwilling to think about this problem at all—
If he hadn't guessed that all this was just a mistake, wouldn't it mean that fate is fighting her? The shadow of fate has been entangled with her for more than fifty years, forcing her to leave all the odds she could. If she could not break free from the so-called "fate", then what's the point of living in the world?
If Lin Jingheng guessed...
Lin Jingshu walked faster and faster, as if she was chasing a monster that only appeared in a nightmare behind her, opening her bloody mouth and swallowing her at any time.
But many things are like a shaking balance, always turning in a direction that people don't want. The "Murphy's Law" applies not only to those who are weak and hypocritical and have unfair hopes for life, but also to powerful murderers and conspirators.
Just like they couldn't make Lin Jingheng jump immediately at first, at this time, they couldn't "maintain the status quo".
The unexpected signal disturbed the spiritual network, as if the sound of the rain from Jingzhe revived everything that was sleeping, unstoppable.
Although Lin Jingheng's body has not yet woken up, his brain waves are more and more frequent.
At the beginning, it took ten days and half a month to capture his subtle reaction, and then it turned out that there would be some movement after two or three days. Later, his brain waves began to continue like a tide.
"Doctor, look," the doctor told Dr. Harden. "This morning, his brain waves were particularly active. We scanned his brain and the mental network and found that he had a weak human-machine interaction with the mental network at that time - like he was 'looking' out through the mental network."
Dr. Harden said in a deep voice: "His consciousness activity is recovering."
"It should be restored," the doctor said. "We successfully communicated with him once today, and we connected a simple typist to the spiritual network machine port."
Dr. Harden suddenly looked up.
"It's just some simple words or words, too long sentences, and he couldn't hold on. We asked him how he felt in his body and whether he had any discomfort. After about forty minutes, he replied 'No'."
"No? No discomfort?"
"That's not. In his current situation, it should be that his body doesn't feel it yet," the doctor lowered his voice. "Doctor, believe me, without the instructions of the master, we dare not give him extra stimulation, nor dare to use excess drugs and biochips for him. The entire configuration of the ecological cabin is exactly the same as before."
Dr. Harden: "Well...why?"
"I don't want to say this," the doctor said, "but if the owner insists on achieving the effect of "maintaining the status quo", from my professional point of view, he can only use some inhibitory drugs to inhibit his nerve activity."
As the first owner of the White Tower, Dr. Harden was an expert in Eden and human-computer interaction. He understood at first glance that the "drugs that inhibit nerve activity" the doctor said were obviously not ordinary sleeping pills.
If Lin Jingheng's situation before was considered "living and dead", then the additional medicine would completely kill this soul.
"Dr., what should we do?"
Harden was silent for a while: "You go and ask Lin Jingshu, and ask her if she decided to make her own brother a specimen."
Lin Jingshu was very busy. With the dormant of the dysfunction society, the alliance joined hands with the Central Army. Most of the activities of the Liberty Legion turned underground, keeping a low profile, and waiting for the next opportunity to penetrate the alliance - this is not difficult. Lin Jingshu believes that because the current unity and justice are based on lies, the alliance has deceived the world with a lie for nearly three hundred years. The re-use of the same trick is just the last struggle of the grasshopper after autumn. What's more, the data shows everything. Although the Liberty Legion moved underground, the number of opium users is still rising at a very stable growth rate.
No matter how busy she is, she still insists on going to the asteroid once every three days.
The doctor explained to her the current situation of Lin Jingheng and Dr. Harden's questioning, but Lin Jingshu didn't say anything after listening for a long time.
The doctor then said: "If you decide to use inhibitory drugs, the regimen and dispensing are completed, and it is stored in the medical cabin next to it and can be done at any time."
Lin Jingshu walked to the door of the laboratory, paused, and interrupted him: "You all go out, don't disturb me."
The doctor shut up well and called everyone in the laboratory away, and together with the guards at the door, cleared the field to fifty meters away.
The ecological cabin environment is completely isolated from the outside world, and the people inside are taken good care of. Through the transparent cover, you can even see that there is a bit of blood on his face and a peaceful expression, as if he is just taking a nap... It's a little strange, Lin Jingshu thought. In her impression, Lin Jingheng was always cold, with a little discomfort, and a sharp look.
Does this face also have a peaceful and almost gentle expression?
"They told me, you're trying to use the Spirit Net, so can you hear me now?"
The people in the ecological cabin did not respond, nor did the scanner and the small screen connected to the spiritual network. Lin Jingshu observed with her hands behind her back for a moment, feeling that she might have caught up with his "rest".
She slowly sat down next to her, put her finger on the medical cabin next to her, and carefully traced a button - as long as she pressed it, the medical cabin could extend the syringe and automatically inject inhibitory drugs into the ecological cabin, and he would return to sleep.
"Life is very tiring, don't you think?" Lin Jingshu put her elbow on her knees, holding her face as if overwhelmed, and said softly. Lin Jingheng certainly couldn't answer. She tilted her head and lowered her eyes to him, "They said, you entered the Ulan Military Academy at the age of fourteen, and as soon as you entered the school, you will be an outstanding graduate of that class. After graduation, you have been in the eye of the alliance. You must be very overwhelmed in these years, right?"
"You must have never read novels. I have read a lot of them. They don't like me working too hard. I had to immerse myself in boring entertainment as much as possible as they want - do you know, the settings of horror stories and adventure stories are very similar. The protagonists of both stories will meet terrible villains, and the other party wants to kill them in every way, but do you know what the difference is?"
Lin Jingshu paused and said to herself: "For example, a person has relatives and friends, work, and life, and has many wishes of all sizes in his heart... Then one day, when he came home from get off work, he found that the door was open, and a murderer was hiding behind the door who was waiting to bite his neck. When you see this, you will be frightened and have a lot of associations. I wonder if his family is dead, how can he escape? Even if he can escape, will he be chased in the future? What should he do with his job? Will his life be ruined by this? Will his life be over in this way? This is a horror story. But in the same scene, the same murderer, what if the protagonist is replaced by another perverted murderer? When you see this, you will not only not feel scared, but you will be very excited. You just want to see how the protagonist can kill his opponent wonderfully. This is an adventure story. Jingheng, which kind do you like?"
Lin Jingheng remained silent.
Lin Jingshu smiled at him: "Do you know what kind of conclusion I will come to compared these two stories? The more you care about, the more you will be afraid, the more likely you are to be forced into a desperate situation. People who are forced into a desperate situation step by step will collapse, become crazy, and even scare themselves to death - unless you become someone like them, give up the desire to hold you back, and let go, you will be fearless."
"Do you know why the Management Committee chose me back then?"
"Because the day Laura left, she sneaked into the cultivation center and forced you and I out of the incubator more than ten days in advance. So you have always regarded yourself as your brother, and it may be unreasonable. Maybe you were just heavier than me when you were born, and it looked bigger... The Management Committee received a report, forcing my father to send troops to hunt her down. She and her partner took us away separately. The partner was arrested secretly and fell into their hands with you. I was taken to the mecha by her... until she self-destructed and put me in the ecological cabin and threw it out."
"Because of this, they have always doubted what I have."
"They took us away on the grounds of 'health checking for premature babies' and found that my mental threshold was more than seven times the standard deviation of the mean. Do you believe I am a genius? Coincidentally, the Management Committee did not believe it. So after his father Lin Wei died, they tried their best to take me away. But guess what? My genius was actually made by Laura with a shot of a half-permanent soothing agent. Until I became an adult and the effect gradually faded, they realized that they had been cheated. She had long given the forbidden fruit to Lu Xin. In order to attract the attention of the Management Committee, she did not hesitate to use her children as bait. If it weren't for Lin Wei's death, Lu Xin jumped out and fought against them, the forbidden fruit might not have been exposed."
"Semi-permanent soothing agents were banned as early as the beginning of the alliance, because there is a high probability that they will cause irreversible damage to the nervous system. I haven't realized it yet. Maybe I'm not old, maybe I will get dementia when I get old?"
"This should have been the fate that we two have taken on together. You escaped at the last minute. Sometimes when I think about it, I feel very jealous and hate you. We are all the same. Why? But sometimes I am very glad, because you are another me... But Jingheng, are you really another me now...?"
"For decades, I have been monitored by people in every move. They are committed to training me to be an obedient dog. I have used more illegal drugs than you, who have been dealing with pirates, have seen."
"There are those remnants of the White Tower with great powers. Dr. Harden, who escaped from the monitoring of the Garden of Eden, was a saint who was betrayed by his subordinates and fled incognito for many years. Even his old friends and beloved students refused to believe it anymore. Maybe the only little girl with nothing can relieve him, right?" Lin Jingshu looked at the laboratory monitor meaningfully, and a sharp smile appeared on her red lips. "He was worried that this little girl would become a fool under the brainwashing of the Management Committee by any means, so he spared no effort to secretly go to Chen Cang, constantly contact her, and constantly pull her soul in the opposite direction, in the name of saving her and preserving her 'free nature'."
"Liberal nature - how luxurious she couldn't even think about it. She thought it would be great if she had just a little 'cheap' personal freedom, but why not, dear Dr. Harden? Because you need a biological venomous snake to bite into the roots of the Management Committee, right? Then don't complain, isn't it normal for people who raise venomous snakes to bite by the venomous snake?"
Maybe it was an illusion, but the surveillance camera slowly deflected at an angle, as if it couldn't bear to look at her.
At this time, the scanner mounted on the ecological cabin suddenly had a little movement, and the people in the ecological cabin developed faint brain activity.
Lin Jingshu suddenly looked up and stared at the curve on the instrument for a moment. She reached out to touch Lin Jingheng's face through the transparent cover, with a cold smile on her face: "Stay here to accompany me, you are the only one left."
After she finished speaking, she turned to the medical cabin: "Start the process of inhibitory drug injection."
The medical cabin sends an emotional alarm: "Inhibitory drugs will cause unpredictable damage to the patient's nervous system, is it confirmed?"
Lin Jingshu: “…”
The medical cabin once again asked the empty laboratory: "Is it confirmed?"
At this moment, a single word suddenly appeared on the screen connected to the Spirit Network: "...Who?"
People who control the spirit network have a very difficult time, and a simple word has a misspelling.
Lin Jingshu was shocked.
The scanner showed that he was constantly trying to expand the spiritual network and "look" out through the spiritual network. The scanner showed that an invisible spiritual network was permeating, gradually covering her standing position. Lin Jingshu trembled gently, and she had the urge to escape.
A moment of silence on the screen, then another line of words appeared: "Who are you?"
This time, he automatically corrected the spelling error just now, but Lin Jingshu didn't notice it. Her eyes were blurred and she couldn't clean it: "Don't you know me anymore?"
The third question in the medical cabin: "Is it confirmed?"
A small screen connected to the Spirit Network slowly appeared: "...you?"
Lin Jingshu suddenly grabbed the robot hand raised in the medical cabin behind her: "Do you still remember who you are?"
"……No."
The word "no" then dissipated, and another line of misspelled words appeared: "Don't cry."
These three words defeated her. Lin Jingshu suddenly turned around and escaped from the laboratory. She seemed to be unbearable and could not stay on this asteroid for a second. She took the mecha to leave directly. Three hours later, she ordered the destruction of the mecha mail station and all space transportation on the asteroid, and used the electromagnetic shielding network dedicated to the space prison to block out all its external signals, turning the small planet into an isolated cage.
There is only one prisoner in the cage, and he is trapped here with the "jailer" of a planet.
One hundred days later, the "prisoner" successfully withdrew from the spiritual network for the first time and opened his own eyes.
He has been lying for too long and is no longer used to his body. Only his eyes can move, and his gray eyes look very clear, looking like he forgets joy and sorrow and has nothing to worry about.
Dr. Harden, who was left behind, walked in alone in a wheelchair, waved his hand, and asked everyone to go out, blocking the surveillance in the laboratory.
Lin Jingheng looked at him, his eyes were not at all turbulent, and he seemed to have no recognition of this famous alliance rebel, and he was a little curious.
The two lay and sat down, looking at each other silently for a long time.
"When the brain is damaged, it is difficult to maintain normal consciousness activities and it is the most honest time for a person to be aware of." Dr. Harden said.
Lin Jingheng blinked gently, and there was nothing in his eyes.
"So when he insists on lying, some uncontrollable mistakes, such as spelling," said Dr. Harden.
Chapter completed!
