Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

When Chi Feichi and the others walked into the duty room, the two young men sitting in front of the monitoring screen were in a trance, and when they sensed someone entering the door, they turned around and saw Tori Guji, and hurriedly greeted them.

"Professor Toriya..."

"Why is your face so ugly?" Osamu Tori was worried about something wrong with the experiment, so he walked quickly to the monitoring screen, frowned and looked over, "Is something wrong?"

"That..." One of the young men exchanged glances with his companions, and bravely expressed his worries, "After taking the drug to fall asleep, all the testers experienced the physical reactions they would have in dreams, and this reaction has no sign of ending. The ten people in wards 1512 and 1523 who took the drug at the beginning have continued this physical reaction for more than three hours, and their brows are getting tighter and their fingers are twitching more and more frequently. We are worried that their bodies will be affected by this continuous dreaming state. Hope You could consider waking them up and giving them a medical check!"

Toriyaji quietly went to see Chi Feichi's reaction, and seeing Chi Feichi nodded slightly, he said to Yoshioka Akihiko seriously, "Yoshioka, let someone wake up the first ten people who conducted the experiment!"

Yoshioka Akihiko nodded yes, turned and left the duty room, called the school students who were in charge of observing the situation just now, and went to wards 1512 and 1523 to try to wake up ten young men and women.

Chi Feichi followed Toriguji and went out, standing in the corridor and waiting.

Akihiko Yoshioka and his team brought a mobile searchlight and entered Ward 1523 first. As soon as the mobile searchlight was powered on, it immediately illuminated the ward as bright as day.

After waiting for a while, two female graduate students stepped forward to wake up the sleeping young girls.

Talk, pat on the shoulder, play rhythmic music...

The two female graduate students tried all the available methods, and they were sweating profusely, but they couldn't wake up the five sleeping young girls.

Yoshioka Akihiko stood at the door and watched for a long time. Seeing that the two female graduate students were really helpless, he frowned and commanded, "Cover their mouths, pinch their noses, and force them to wake up with the feeling of suffocation, but be careful not to force them to be unable to breathe for too long. Release them every three seconds and repeat them several times. Just destroy their normal breathing rhythm..."

"yes!"

The two female graduate students immediately followed suit, squatting down next to two of the hospital beds, stretching out their hands to cover the mouths of the two young drug testers who were sleeping, and pinching the noses of the drug testers with the other hand for three seconds before releasing them. They repeated this for more than twenty times, but still failed to wake them up.

At the door, Yoshioka Akihiko said again, "Try to see if the other three can wake them up."

The two female graduate students changed their targets and tossed the remaining three drug testers, but they still failed to wake them up, and cast helpless glances at Yoshioka Akihiko at the door.

Yoshioka Akihiko did the same thing, and asked people to transfer the searchlight to Ward 1512 to try to wake up the five young men. He turned around and stood in front of Toriyaji and Chi Feichi, and said in a low voice with embarrassment, "Professor Toriya, this drug is the same as estazolam and oxazepam. They inject drugs to wake them up."

"This..." Toriguji looked at Chi Feichi hesitantly.

"Don't use medicine," Chi Feichi said in a hoarse voice, "If you can't wake up, don't cry."

Seeing the indifferent expression on Chi Feichi's Yirong's face, Toriguji suddenly realized that the man next to him had no intention of waking people up in the first place, but just wanted to test whether the sleeping person could resist the common waking methods. He was stunned for a moment, seeing Yoshioka Akihiko looking at himself and Chi Feichi with probing eyes, and coughing lightly with his right hand clenched in front of his mouth, "Cough, yes, their current physical conditions are still within the normal range. It's best to wait and see. , On the contrary, it caused their brain nerves to be damaged.”

"I understand!" Yoshioka Akihiko nodded with a smile, and quickly turned around to communicate with the students who were at a loss. After terminating the wake-up plan, he returned to the duty room and calmed down the emotions of the two researchers on duty.

Of course, the same rhetoric that Toriyaji used was also used.

Without drugs, although the test subject cannot be woken up, the test subject is in stable physical condition and has not appeared in any dangerous situation. If the test subject is awakened with drugs, there is a probability that the test subject's brain nerves will be damaged... How to choose, there is almost no need to think about it.

The two researchers in the duty room did not have the slightest doubt. Under Yoshioka Akihiko's persuasion, they expressed some guilt that they had not thought carefully.

The early wake-up plan was put on hold, and Toriguchi accompanied Chi Feichi to watch the monitoring in the duty room for a while, and then went along the corridor with Chi Feichi to inspect the wards.

The experiment was conducted at night to match the work and rest habits of the drug testers, so that the drug testers could take the medicine after their brains were active for a day, and the test drugs opened during the day would be arranged in the next period.

In this way, it will be more difficult for the researchers involved in the experiment to test the drug at night. During the day, they have to check the tester’s physical examination report, prepare the drug, prepare the drug dose, and complete the inspection. At night, they need to distribute the drug and observe whether the tester has strong adverse reactions after taking the drug.

However, the students who are responsible for distributing medicines and observing the situation can go to the ward to rest or go home directly after completing the task at hand. Although the two researchers in the duty room need to stay up late, they can still hold on after making up for sleep during the day.

Toriyaji had an office at the experimental site, and he could sleep late on the bed in the office, but because Chi Feichi, the co-financier, suddenly came to the experimental site to follow up the experiment, and after persuading Chi Feichi to go to rest was rejected, he was too embarrassed to go to sleep and insisted on accompanying Chi Feichi to inspect the wards one by one.

Halfway through the two inspections, Akihiko Yoshioka, who arranged for the students, also joined the inspection team.

The two researchers in the duty room sat in front of the large monitoring screen, watching the drug testers on the hospital bed constantly having nightmares, seeing the dedicated seniors patrolling the ward without taking a break, and always paying attention to the situation of the drug testers, their hearts were filled with admiration, and they couldn't help but put more coffee powder into the cup when making coffee.

On the other hand, the topics discussed by the inspection trio were indeed the progress of the experiment and the physical condition of the drug testers.

In one of the three-person wards where the third batch of testers lived, two of the testers lived in their sixties and a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was lying in the middle ward, his brows were furrowed when he closed his eyes, his face showed obvious panic, and his hands beside him were also tightly clutching the quilt.

Two old people were lying on the hospital beds on both sides. One of them had a painful face, his facial features were almost wrinkled together, and he let out a low, muffled 'hum' from his nasal cavity from time to time, while the other's fingers twitched from time to time, uttering ravings of 'Get out of here' and 'Let me go'.

The inspection trio had already seen more than forty people who had nightmares, and they didn't make any fuss when they saw the situation of the three. One person was in charge of a drug tester, and went to the bedside to check the eye movement and instrument detection status of the three drug testers.

"During the animal experiments, I discovered that this drug would cause mammals to fall into nightmares," Toriyaji said with emotion. "At the time, I thought it was a matter of probability, but I didn't expect that every tester would fall into a nightmare."

"Have you ever considered this aspect during drug research?" Yoshioka Akihiko said "deliberately" euphemistically. When it came to the topic of drug research and development, he didn't deliberately look at Chi Feichi, and carefully checked the eye movements of the drug tester in front of him. "Although I don't know what the drug that makes people have nightmares will be useful... Ah, sorry, I seem to be too curious when I say this."

Chi Feichi looked at the situation of the drug tester in front of him, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Mr. Yoshioka should have seen it? I am the provider of this drug..."

Yoshioka Akihiko saw that Osamu Toriya also stopped to look at himself, and confessed with a smile, "I guessed it a little bit. After all, Professor Toriya has been paying attention to your attitude tonight. I was wondering if you might be the 'friend' he wants to help this time... But if you don't want to tell me, I can also pretend that I don't know anything."

Toriguji smiled helplessly at Chi Feichi, "Yoshioka has always been smart, of course, it's because I showed my flaws tonight, I'm really sorry."

Sooner or later, Chi Fei knew that Yoshioka Akihiko was smart enough to sell Toriyaji and ask Toriyaji to help count the money. He was not enthusiastic, but he did not deliberately ignore him and replied, "Since he is Mr. Toriya's helper, it doesn't matter if he finds out."

Yoshioka Akihiko didn't have any overly enthusiastic reaction either, and replied with a smile, "Thank you both for trusting me so much, I will keep my mouth shut."

The three of them left the ward and continued to go to the next two wards to see the situation of the remaining drug testers.

Toriguji invited Chi Feichi to his office, but Chi Feichi refused again.

Chi Fei was late at the door of the duty room, but didn't go in. Instead, he stood against the wall next to the door and took out his mobile phone to read emails.

Toriyaji and Yoshioka Akihiko wisely did not disturb Chi Feichi, and went to the duty room to discuss the arrangement of the next experiment.

At six o'clock in the morning, the four students who were in charge of distributing the medicine were not at ease, and went to the experiment site to help.

Hearing that the drug testers had nightmares all night and couldn't wake up, the four young people couldn't help but chattering in the corridor, discussing whether the drug testers would feel pain in their dreams due to the long nightmare.

Chi Feichi went to the bathroom to confirm that the orb in the white coat had turned red, put the orb back, and decided to stay for another hour to see if any testers would wake up.

As the developer of this drug, he is also curious about how these testers feel after taking the drug.

Half an hour later, a girl in Ward 1523 woke up from a nightmare. After opening her eyes, she stared at the ceiling in horror and trance for a long time, then slowly sat up while hugging the quilt tightly, becoming the first person to wake up.

Except for those who needed to stay in the duty room, the other people who got the news rushed to the outside of ward 1523, but not all of them rushed into the ward, only the two female graduate students who were in charge of distributing the medicine before were allowed into the ward.

The girl who woke up was pale, and after being comforted by the two female graduate students, she came to her senses and stumbled about her long nightmare.

"I dreamed that I finished the experiment, got paid and went home, but the neighbors became weird..."

"It seems like everyone in the world has changed, my mother said, there are man-eating monsters lurking among normal people..."
