Bionic Era

The wind suddenly picked up.

Surrounded by green grass.

During this time, Li Meng cleaned the villa very clean, no rubbish can be seen in the house, and the curtains are all drawn, so the air is bright and it is no longer so dark.

After hearing Lu Wen's words, she was stunned for a moment.

She never really thought about the name, but it just popped up in her mind at that time.

Now that I think about it, I can't really tell why.

After all, she hadn't even met many people surnamed Lu before that.

"At that time... maybe I just thought of this name suddenly."

Li Meng recalled it carefully, and at the same time looked at his own memory chip.

A trace of confusion flashed in her eyes.

It seems to have forgotten something.

"I want to take a look at your data." Lu Wen said.

"Can."

Lu Wen has never read Li Meng's data.

Either her death, or her resurrection later.

The two held hands lightly.

Data transfer is on.

...

It seems to have been asleep for a long time.

The past is blown away by the illusory soft wind.

Lu Wen felt that he was weak all over, and his limbs could not be controlled.

He seems to be lying on a small boat, floating around in the calm sea, and he seems to be enjoying the shade under the big banyan tree in summer, with the shadows of the trees dancing around.

"beep……"

"beep……"

A certain voice rang in the ears.

He gradually became conscious.

It was like a ringing bell calling for souls, and it was like a quiet whisper.

Lu Wen slowly opened his eyes.

What came into view was a piece of white.

This is a ward.

separate wards.

There are no other patients.

The door is on the right side of the hospital bed, and a glass window is on the left side. It is summer outside, and there are cicadas and sparrows in my ears.

The light blue curtains swayed gently in the warm summer wind.

Sunlight streamed in through the half-opened glass windows.

The "beep" sound I heard just now came from an instrument next to the hospital bed.

There is more than one mechanical instrument in this ward.

There is a very weird machine with strings of strings flashing on it, and the strings contain some Chinese names.

Li Meng, Huang Liang, Fang Zhou...

Lu Wen sat up from the bed. He felt a little pain in his head. It seemed that something was about to rush into his mind, but it was blurred and hazy through a veil, and it was too late to become clear.

He noticed that he was full of various tubes.

There are gastric tubes, infusions, and some are directly inserted into the head, and the needle seems to have entered the inside of the skull.

"Squeak..."

The door of the ward opened suddenly.

A little nurse came in with some medical supplies on a plate.

Before she got close, she looked at Lu Wen who was sitting up, and suddenly her eyes widened.

"You... are you awake?" Her surprised eyes seemed to have seen some miracle.

"What?" Lu Wen looked at her.

"You have been comatose for more than two months."

"Yeah?"

Lu Wen thought about it.

Talking with a gastric tube is a difficult thing.

He was about to pull it out himself.

The little nurse hurriedly stopped him and immediately notified the doctor in charge.

Not long.

The doors of the ward were pushed open one after another.

Lu Wen was soon surrounded by a group of people in white coats.

Afterwards, various physical examinations, asking about feelings...

After confirming that everything was normal for Lu Wen, the doctors finally helped him pull out all kinds of tubes from his body.

"I have to say that I am very surprised. You have been in a coma for more than two months, and you are so energetic after waking up. It seems that the new treatment equipment is effective."

"What instrument?"

"It's the one next to your hospital bed..."

The doctor explained to Lu Wen in detail.

This is a therapeutic device developed by Taicai, and it is still in the experimental stage.

It is mainly aimed at patients who have been in a coma for a long time, that is, people in a vegetative state. By stimulating the inside of their brains, it may be possible for them to enter a virtual world in a coma.

If they are stimulated enough in that world, there is hope of waking up.

"We have this kind of technology?" Lu Wen asked with a frown.

"Actually, I was not sure at the beginning. This thing is still in the experimental stage, and you are one of the subjects of the voluntary experiment."

"I?"

"It's your family, the names they signed on the experiment list."

Lu Wen wanted to think about it seriously, but soon felt a dull pain in his head.

Before he fell into a coma, the world didn't seem to have such a top-notch treatment device, and he didn't even release the news.

The doctor went on to say: "Actually, even if your family members have not signed the agreement, when this device passes the trial stage and is successful, we will use it for you first. Your current status is very special."

"What identity?"

"Your disease is a disease that has never appeared before. We decided to name this disease after you more than two months ago."

"Is there anything special about this disease?"

"To be precise, this disease caused some special lesions in your cells. Now the cells in your body are approaching infinite division, and the telomeres are not shortened. Just like cancer cells, you can live forever. In other words, you... …You bear the hope of eternal life for all mankind."

"Is it so special? Wouldn't I be close to eternal life myself?"

"No...it's hard to say. It still needs to be studied. The current research progress is very slow, and it has only been started for less than two months."

Hearing this, Lu Wen turned to look at the instrument beside the hospital bed.

Familiar names flashed past him and gave him a headache.

Now that he is awake, there is no need to stay here any longer, so he asked, "When can I be discharged from the hospital?"

"Your illness... If you feel that there is no problem with your body, you can leave the hospital now. We will not stop this. It depends on your wishes." The doctor pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and then said: "But I suggest that you still stay in the hospital." Rest here for a few more days and observe the follow-up situation.”

"also."

Lu Wen agreed.

All the doctors left after another examination, giving him a little quiet space.

Lu Wen tried to stand up and walk a few steps.

He can walk, but he just lay down for two months, and people often give him hot compresses and kneading for his joints and muscles, so that he won't shrink so quickly.

The little nurse was still in the ward. She looked at the time and asked, "It's lunch time. Do you need me to bring you a meal? The hospital's working meal."

"Is none of my family here?"

"They...they handed you over to us after paying a fee."

Lu Wen nodded.

In my memory, the relationship with my family is indeed quite dull.

"Then please bring me a copy."

Not for a while.

The little nurse came back with a box lunch.

Two meat and one vegetarian, and a small plastic bowl of seaweed egg drop soup.

Lu Wen thanked him and took the lunch box.

After delivering the lunch box, the little nurse left.

Lu Wen was the only one left in the ward.

He opened the clear plastic lid on the lunch box.

"It still smells pretty good."

Lu Wen picked up the chopsticks, just about to taste them.

He was suddenly in a trance for a moment.

Smells?

smell?

It seems that the experience in the virtual world made him feel that the sense of smell is very precious.

That feeling of not being able to smell it is really uncomfortable.

Lu Wen tasted the first meat dish.

There is also a sense of taste.

It's an amazing feeling.

But he swears.

This is definitely the worst dish in the world, and it doesn't get any worse.

Then Lu Wen tasted the second meat dish.

So his previous vow was broken.

...

have eaten.

Lu Wen walked out of the ward.

He found that the location of his ward was very special, and few people seemed to come.

It was cold in the hallway.

The lighting and wall paint are sickly pale.

The air is also full of the smell of disinfectant.

Lu Wen turned his head and glanced at the number on the door of his ward.

【9】

Very common number.

But not too ordinary.

In this kind of place, there should be a floor number in front of the general room number.

His room is at the end of the corridor.

Inside is a wall.

Lu Wen walked slowly towards the other side of the corridor.

On both sides of the corridor are also some numbered wards.

【8】

【7】

【6】

【…】

The sides are symmetrical.

There are five wards on each side.

Lu Wen came to the exit of the corridor, near the hall.

In a ward on his right, the number [0] is marked on the door.

This number is different from other numbers.

Others, including [9] on the door of Lu Wen's room, are all white.

But the word [0] is dark red, giving people a dangerous feeling.

When Lu Wen saw this number for the first time, he was in a daze for a moment.

Something seemed to be stirring in his mind, burning his nerves.

He stood at the door of this room and focused on it for a long time. He didn't look away until his mind was really uncomfortable.

When he was in the ward before, he knew that this floor was the ninth floor, the highest floor of the building.

There was also no one in the lobby on the ninth floor.

cold.

Dead silence.

empty.

Across the hall is another corridor.

Also the same pale color.

There are two elevators on one side of the lobby, and the stairs next to the elevators.

The green safe passage sign is on and off.

The number of the elevator has been hovering between [0-8], it seems that this building does not have a ninth floor at all.

Lu Wen walked towards the opposite corridor.

His footsteps echoed in the empty hall.

Just walked a few steps.

Lu Wen stopped.

"There seem to be other footsteps?"

He looked back.

Behind him was still the pale corridor where his own ward was located, and there was no one there.

There was no sign of anyone coming up the elevator in the lobby and the stairs on one side.

Lu Wen felt that he was thinking too much, so he continued to move forward.

"This corridor is quite long."

Lu Wen stood at the entrance of the corridor and looked.

There are also wards on both sides.

The rooms are neat.

But there is no number on the door, but a simple character [×].

The negation character is also dark red.

Like coagulated blood.

It looks very conspicuous in a white world.

look around.

This dark red symbol is on the doors of the wards on both sides of this long corridor.

At the end of the corridor are left and right passages.

Lu Wen glanced at the light tube above his head that flickered from time to time, and then stepped out of the corridor.

Left foot just stepped in.

He was in a trance again for a moment.

The world in front of him seemed to be blurred, those doors and light tubes overlapped, seemed to be alive, shaking, eroding his mind, and looked a little dizzy.

But it quickly returned to normal.

Lu Wen frowned, trying to make what he saw clearly.

He stepped forward slowly.

He had just taken two steps when there was a kind of murmur beside him, which was very ear-piercing.

It was as if thousands of steel needles were stimulating his brain.

The sudden severe pain forced him to lean against a door.

Lu Wen supported the door with one hand and pressed his head with the other.

He bent over as much as possible.

This will make you feel better.

The overhead lights flickered again.

Lu Wen couldn't stand up straight yet, his neck was bent, his head was lowered, and his eyes could only look at the floor of the corridor, which was very smooth.

He tried to straighten himself up.

But that severe pain struck again in an instant, the main one was a headache, and the pain was doubled, as if the whole brain was about to split open.

It was as if someone was holding a saw and sawing through his skull bit by bit.

His eyes returned to the ground again.

But this time on the ground, there is something more.

Dark red liquid.

sticky.

It slowly flowed out from the crack of the door where Lu Wen was leaning.

The pungent smell of blood surged in the air.

"Crack..."

The door opened slowly.
