The Mechanic

"I understand what you mean, Zhang Xun. But there is a certain chance that what the enemy said is correct. In this case..."

"Okay." Zhang Xun stood up, feeling a little dizzy, stood on the table for a while, and said weakly, "I'm going to rest for a few hours. You can check the design of the nanorobot yourself. As long as you see something that seems to be wrong The parts where the human traits have an impact are marked."

"Good Zhang Xun." I don't know if it was an illusion, but Pan's voice seemed much lighter.

Zhang Xun lay down on the sofa. He was obviously exhausted, but he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. Countless thoughts connected with each other, running around in his mind uncontrollably. He got up from the sofa a little irritably, found a bottle of sleeping pills from the medicine cabinet, stuffed one into his mouth, and fell into a drowsy dream.

For a while, he seemed to feel that someone had entered his room. Half of his consciousness made him want to wake up, but the other half seemed to be pressed by an invisible force on the boundary between lucidity and drowsiness. He vaguely remembered opening his eyes and seeing a figure squatting down in front of him. A finger that lacked human body temperature lightly landed on his cheek, and left again like a superficial touch.

Zhang Xun inexplicably wanted to grab that hand and not let go. But his body couldn't move, and his consciousness was pulled back into the chaos of nothingness again.

A few hours later, after he was woken up by the alarm clock he set, Pan told him that Enoch had come to see him, saying that James was in good condition, but Cindy's condition was rapidly deteriorating, and there were many signs of bleeding on his body. , developed festering sores, lost hair in large areas, and even started coughing up blood.

After Zhang Xun heard this, he was secretly startled, and it started to deteriorate so quickly?

He left the temple in a hurry and landed in the central hospital not far away by aircraft. Since they came to Feather Snake City, this was the first time Zhang Xun had left that pyramid. Walking among countless reformers, he was particularly eye-catching and attracted a lot of attention. The nurse who was in charge of registering and receiving at the front desk knew who he was looking for at a glance. After all, people without any transformation are like rare animals in Feather Snake City.

Cindy was isolated and approached the aseptic room. Through the window, she could see a few bloodstains on her new hospital gown lying on the hospital bed. Her originally thick hair fell out to reveal a large bluish scalp, her eyes were closed, and her mouth and nose were covered by a breathing mask. A grayness of death shrouded her body, as if she had been tied by the god of death.

Thinking that James might become like this in the near future, Zhang Xun felt it was difficult to breathe.

It's because of me... because of myself James and Cindy, and those dead people from Rhino Horn Town will enter the realm of death... This is his responsibility, he must speed up...

"Zhang Xun?"

When Zhang Xun turned his head, he saw Enoch smiling at him with several bottles of purified water in his hands.

Enoch's smile is so similar to that of Adam's. They both have a kind of unworldly emptiness, which can lift the heaviest emotions in the world, making people feel much calmer when they look at them.

Zhang Xunding looked into Enuo's eyes and didn't speak for a long time. Enoch seemed a little unsure of his intentions, and looked down at himself, "Did I do anything wrong?"

"No, thank you for informing me about Cindy." Zhang Xun looked at the doctors and nurses passing by, as well as several family members who were talking not far away, and took a few steps towards Enuo, "I heard Pan Say, you came back while I was asleep?"

Enoch nodded, "Yes, I saw you resting, so I told Pan about the situation."

"You know, you can notify the server AI Morningstar. It will be passed on to me immediately." Zhang Xun carefully studied the robot's expression.

"I'm a robot, and I don't have permission to use the morning star here." Enuo looked at him innocently, "Sorry, I didn't know you didn't want me to go back. I will ask a human to help me convey it next time."

Why does there seem to be a trace of grievance in his tone?

Clearly knowing that a robot would never feel wronged, Zhang Xun still reflexively couldn't bear it, "You can come back if necessary, but you can't talk to Pan alone. You can wake me up."

"Yes, I see."

As they talked, they walked towards James' ward. Zhang Xun asked, "How is Jamie doing?"

"He's in good spirits, but he has a headache and nausea. Todd has been with him all the time."

Todd...

There seems to be something between him and Jamie? In this way, is it serious?

Zhang Xun showed a wry smile. He should be happy for Jamie, but at times like this, he can't laugh.

If you finally meet the love of your life near the end of your life, is that a good thing or a bad thing?

James didn't have to live in the sterile room, his condition was better than Cindy's, and he was sitting on the bed playing cards with Todd. Seeing Zhang Xun, James' eyes lit up, "A Xun!"

Zhang Xun put on a relaxed smile, at least the most relaxed expression he could make, pulled a chair closer, and joked, "It seems that you are having a good time?"

Todd sneered while throwing down a playing card, "Can you believe it? There is a free spa in this hospital."
