I'm not sick! So do my other personalities!

The operating room was dark, with only the shadowless lamp illuminating an operating bed.

There were shadows all around, and the curtain was half-opened, revealing a piece of machinery.

If you look carefully, you can vaguely make out the outlines of carts, cabinets and some medical instruments surrounding the operating bed. In the stainless steel trays on the cart, various surgical instruments shine with a cold light.

Ghost No. 024 opened her eyes, and immediately found that she could not move her hands or feet, and her visual sensors and combat uniform were nowhere to be found. At some point, she was changed into a nurse uniform, and several restraints trapped her firmly in the surgery. on the bed.

The shadowless lamp above her head was turned on, and the snow-white light shone on her face without reservation, and the surroundings were quiet.

The cold surgical instruments reflected bright spots of light in the darkness, as if someone would walk in the next moment...

Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, No. 024 was suddenly confused. This was the "digital domain" of Zhou Zhen's sub-personality!

Why did she come back to this place again?

But soon, No. 024 calmed down, and suddenly exerted force on his arm, bang bang bang! With a series of crisp sounds, all the restraints broke simultaneously, and she had broken free from the restraints on her upper body.

No. 024 suddenly sat up from the hospital bed, but his legs were still firmly fixed on the operating bed, unable to move.

She glanced at the metal buckle that locked her legs, raised her hand and grabbed a pair of surgical scissors from the trolley tray next to her. The surgical scissors immediately turned into a torrent of numbers, symbols, formulas... in her hands.

The torrent swirled around her palm rapidly, and the dense numbers, symbols, formulas... quickly changed their positions, and instantly combined into a silver-white pistol.

No. 024 took the pistol, pointed it at the metal buckle and fired directly.

Bang bang bang!

The metal buckle that was originally locked was immediately knocked out, and several strong straps fell softly.

All the bindings were lifted, and Ghost No. 024 immediately got down from the hospital bed. Using the light of the shadowless lamp, he quickly identified the situation in the room, and then walked towards the door.

She came to the door, reached for the door handle, and found nothing.

Taking a closer look, No. 024 immediately discovered that the door in front of him and the door handle on the door were both two-dimensional!

No. 024 took a few steps back, and quickly remembered what Zhou Zhen had said about the Binhai Central Hospital case along the way...

This is a "ring", a "ring" formed by the connection of "reality" and "dream".

If you want to get out of this "ring", you must find the node where "reality" and "dream" connect...

Of course, this is the normal step to crack the "ring"!

Thinking of this, a pure white light appeared all over the small pistol in No. 024's hand. The white light was filled with countless numbers, formulas, and theorems... Soon, the entire pistol made a "click-click" sound and quickly deformed and reorganized. It becomes a sniper rifle more than four meters long!

No. 024 did not load any bullets into the sniper rifle. She directly raised the muzzle of the gun, aimed it in a random direction in the room, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

boom!

The moment the bullet was fired, the figure of No. 024 disappeared in an instant. The sniper rifle with exquisite craftsmanship and full of mechanical beauty simultaneously turned into a vast torrent of numbers, formulas, and theorems... In the blink of an eye, it returned to the original pair of surgical scissors, "Clang!" With a sound, it fell to the ground.

Suburbs of Tongfu City.

The fog is thick and the ruins are silent.

On a wasteland next to the road, the deserted land had several clear traces left by the tires. Several weeds were gently swaying in the wind blowing from an unknown place. A tall off-road vehicle was parked quietly. The car body is dusty.

In the open space behind the car, the trunk remained open.

Zhou Zhen placed the 30-inch suitcase horizontally on the ground to serve as a stool. He sat on it, holding his mobile phone, and just clicked on the "photo album".

At this time, he found that there seemed to be something wrong with the first photo and immediately clicked on it.

In the familiar operating room, the light, shadow, composition, instruments... nothing has changed. However, the operating bed under the shadowless lamp is empty.

Just as the photo was clicked, a dark bullet suddenly shot out from the screen!

This scene happened between lightning and flint. Zhou Zhen had no time to react. Seeing that the bullet was about to hit his eyebrow, he hurriedly wanted to use the "Digital Domain", and then...

boom!

That pure black bullet suddenly transformed into a slim figure wearing a pure black combat uniform, and suddenly collided with Zhou Zhen!

Zhou Zhen was like a cannonball, and was knocked backwards by the powerful momentum. He fell heavily into the gravel more than ten meters away. His head hit the hardened sand directly, and a sharp pain suddenly came from the back of his head.

He was dizzy for a moment, and passed out the moment he fell to the ground.

At the same time, Ghost No. 024's physical fitness was obviously a level higher than Zhou Zhen's. She did not suffer any damage. She immediately pressed Zhou Zhen's chest and stood up from the ground quickly.

The moment she left the ward, all the equipment on her body was restored.

Seeing Zhou Zhen lying unconscious on the ground, No. 024 suddenly became alert.

The protection target of this mission has a weak personality and is safe!

But the sub-personality is even more difficult to deal with than the infected!

After scanning the surroundings and not seeing the other three companions, No. 024 immediately pressed a button on the smart bracelet to turn off the signal blocking system, then took out his mobile phone and dialed the number of one of his companions.

Beep...beep...beep...

The call was quickly connected, and the ghost of No. 024 quickly said: "No. 056, I am No. 024!"

"Where are you people?"

"Zhou Zhen is in a coma now. I don't know if his secondary personality will come out. Now you..."

Before she finished speaking, No. 024 suddenly stopped talking. After a moment, she said coldly, "Why didn't you wait for me?"

The other end of the phone seemed to say something again. After hearing this, No. 024 didn't say anything more and quickly hung up the phone.

This escort mission has been completed!

Except for her, the other three members of the ghost team had already started their return journey an hour ago.

It only took her about a minute to get out of trouble in that ward, but more than ten hours had passed outside!

In addition, when she was trapped in that ward, the three people in No. 056 forgot her existence!

Therefore, she has now entered a high-risk city!

After confirming the current situation, No. 024 quickly calmed down. She bent down, picked up Zhou Zhen's mobile phone, stuffed it into his pocket, then grabbed Zhou Zhen's right ankle, and dragged him towards the off-road vehicle next to him. …

In the classroom with bright and clean windows, dust floats quietly in the air.

The math teacher stood on the podium and explained the knowledge points loudly. The pointer hit the blackboard from time to time, and the loud and crisp sound lingered.

There was silence in the classroom, except for the rustling sound of the pen tip scratching the paper, like spring nibbling leaves, one after another.

All the students were listening to the class carefully, except Zhou Zhen, who was sitting in his seat with a dazed expression.

After being in a daze for a while, he gradually remembered the memories in reality.

Zhou Zhen immediately looked at his homework book. Among the ten questions, four solutions were written under the first question. Although he had already started to answer the second question, he only wrote the beginning, leaving a large blank space. , it seems that the final answer has not yet been calculated.

The "second step"...

The title of this workbook is about the levels of the "Digital Ladder". The process of solving the problem and the answers are the "Digital Domain"...

He now has a total of five "number fields". The first four "number fields" have already formed formulas in his mind, and he can use them as he pleases without any hindrance.

But for the "digital field" under the second question, he had to recall Ji Yuantao's memory before he could use it normally...

"[Overfrequency interference]..."

"[Hidden eavesdropping]..."

"[Geometric Barrier]..."

"[Plane Transition]..."

"The last 'digital domain' is not complete yet. Its current function should be to analyze dreams..."

Zhou Zhen thought to himself, and then looked at Chu Jingyan who was sitting not far away.

The other party was still dressed as before, with twin ponytails, a red and black plaid top, and a white petal skirt. She was concentrating on taking notes at the moment, paying no attention to his inspection.

Zhou Zhen recalled Chu Jingyan's homework and nodded slightly. He was now at the "second level". Next, he could go to Chu Jingyan and copy another question.

In addition, when he was on the "first step", there were four "digital fields". Now on the "second step", he has to get eight "digital fields", just to barely have enough...

Therefore, I have to capture a few more classmates.

Thinking this, Zhou Zhen immediately turned his head and looked at a male classmate diagonally in front of him.

The male classmate is of medium height, with long sleeves rolled up, and the exposed forearms have clear muscles. His skin is a wheat color unique to the sun. He has a crew cut, his eyebrows are longer than ordinary boys, the bridge of his nose is a bit flat, and his lips are thicker. , the whole person looks very strong. Wearing a navy sweatshirt, light brown casual pants, and a striped wristband on his left wrist.

When his eyes touched this male classmate, Zhou Zhen's information immediately emerged in Zhou Zhen's mind: Meng Zhuo, with average academic performance, enthusiastic and cheerful, informal, likes to make friends, very popular in the class, and does not have any bad habits …

This Meng Zhuo, if he just wanted to make friends with him, it would be very easy.

But it is not that simple to ask the other party to lend you the homework book.

If it were in the past, Zhou Zhen would definitely not include Meng Zhuo as his target, because Meng Zhuo does not have as obvious a hobby as Chu Jingyan, and Meng Zhuo has many friends. Once he offends him, other students in the classroom will It will become more difficult to conquer...

However, after defeating Chu Jingyan, he now basically understands that the students in this classroom all want to go out and play!

As long as the other party wants to leave the classroom, he is sure to copy the other party's homework!

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen sat in his seat and waited silently.

Jingle Bell……

Time passed slowly, and the bell finally rang. The math teacher put down his pointer, packed up his lesson plans, briefly announced that get out of class was over, and strode out of the classroom.

After the teacher left, the atmosphere in the entire class suddenly relaxed. Most of the students left their seats and started walking around the classroom.

Just as Zhou Zhen was about to walk towards Meng Zhuo, he saw Chu Jingyan getting up from her seat and walking directly to the back door.

Seeing that Chu Jingyan was about to walk out of the classroom, Zhou Zhen quickly walked over and stopped in front of Chu Jingyan.

"Chu Jingyan, I have something to do with you later. Don't leave the classroom first." Zhou Zhen said quickly. It seems that only one person can go out at the same time in this classroom. If Chu Jingyan goes out now, there is nothing he can do. Go and conquer Mengzhuo.

Hearing this, Chu Jingyan did not answer Zhou Zhen's words, but walked around him, walked to the wall aside, stretched out her hands, and kept groping for something on the wall, as if she suddenly couldn't find a way out. Same as the door.

After groping for a moment to no avail, Chu Jingyan returned to her seat in frustration.

Looking at this scene, Zhou Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and immediately walked towards Meng Zhuo.

At this time, Meng Zhuo was talking with several classmates, bursting into laughter from time to time, showing his white teeth, looking very happy.

Zhou Zhen didn't waste any time, walked quickly to Meng Zhuo and said quickly: "Meng Zhuo, I want to make friends with you."

Hearing this, several classmates chatting with Meng Zhuo suddenly stopped talking and looked at Zhou Zhen quietly.

Meng Zhuo's smile did not change, he raised his head and glanced at Zhou Zhen, and immediately made the same condition as Chu Jingyan: "If you let me out, we will be good friends!"

Having experienced this once, Zhou Zhen immediately replied: "No problem!"

"I can take you out now."

"But I don't know a few questions, and I want you to teach me."

Meng Zhuo laughed and nodded very eloquently: "No problem!"

With that said, he stood up and returned to his seat, pulled out his homework from the pile of books on the desk and handed it to Zhou Zhen, "This is my homework, I can lend it to you for reference."

Zhou Zhen took the homework book and immediately opened it and started reading.

There are also ten questions in the homework book. Only three questions have complex problem-solving processes and answers written under them. The remaining seven questions are all blank.

Zhou Zhen thought about it seriously and immediately replied: "I only want the first two questions. Just give me a copy of the first two questions."

Meng Zhuo nodded immediately: "Okay!"

As he spoke, he took out his notebook and tore out a blank piece of paper.

The piece of paper had just been torn off, and it was instantly filled with all kinds of incomprehensible numbers, symbols, theorems, graphics... which were the answers to the other party's first two questions!

Zhou Zhen took the piece of paper and immediately returned to his seat and sat down.

The paper seemed to melt into the air in his hand, disappearing bit by bit.

At the same moment, he spread out the exercise book on the table. Behind the four problem-solving processes and answers under the first question, a complex number, symbols, theorems, graphics slowly appeared... This is the fifth solution. Question process and answers.

But below the second question...the original one only wrote a beginning of the problem-solving steps, which were directly replaced by the new problem-solving process and answers!

When he entered the "second ladder", the incomplete "digital domain" he obtained was replaced by this new "digital domain"!
