Lord of the Mysteries 2: Circle of Inevitability

Lumian looked at Lao Wang and Lao Ding, who were wrapped in white bandages, again, and carefully examined their conditions and the details around them.

"Don't disturb the patient." The nurse who led Lumian and others into the ward gave a few instructions, walked out, and returned to the nurse station.

At this time, the patient who should be Lao Ding was affected by the conversation between his family and Xu Xinyang, woke up and slowly opened his eyes.

Against the backdrop of the circles of white bandages around him, Lao Ding's two dark brown eyes were much darker than normal, and it took a long time to regain focus.

Lumian did not find any abnormalities worth noting.

Xu Xinyang walked to the bedside and greeted Lao Ding. Lao Ding was not very energetic and spoke vaguely.

Lumian listened for 20 to 30 seconds, then looked at Lao Wang who was still sleeping, stepped back step by step, and came to the door of the ward without leaving any trace or attracting any attention.

He then looked at the doctor and nurse information posted outside the ward:

"Attending doctor: Huang Puda.

"Head nurse: Qi Fang. "

From the photo, it can be seen that Qi Fang is the nurse who brought Lumian and others to the ward just now.

A name that is not mentioned in the information... The name style is that of a "local" in the dream city, not an "outsider"... It feels okay... Lumian returned to the ward and greeted Lao Ding and the two family members with the captain Xu Xinyang.

They did not stay long to avoid disturbing the patients' rest.

Walking through the corridor, passing the nurse station, and walking towards the door of the ward, Lumian casually looked at the bulletin boards on the walls on both sides.

On one side is an introduction to scientific and technological achievements and some diseases and injuries, and on the other side is a brief introduction to all doctors and nurses in this ward, which is divided into good and bad. Several rows.

Lumian's eyes fell on the photo at the top.

It was a plump-looking female doctor with good-looking features and brown eyes. She looked to be in her forties.

Her introduction was:

"Roland, Vice Dean..."

Lumian's first reaction was "Isn't this Franka's last name?" Then he suddenly felt a chill on his spine and almost shuddered.

He remembered another Roland.

That was a prominent name he had heard of when he was investigating the sea prayer ceremony in Santa Port, Feynaport Kingdom:

Roland, the matron of the "Mother Earth Goddess" Church!

This is equivalent to the pope and pontiff of other orthodox churches!

The "farmer" path has "doctor" Sequence, Roland, as the matriarch of the "Mother Earth Goddess" Church, is most likely an angel of this path, which means he is one of the strongest doctors in the real world. In the corresponding image of the dream city, he is the vice president of a hospital and the chief of surgery. He is absolutely qualified and in line with Mr. "Fool"'s subconscious cognition... But the problem is that this is Mushu Hospital... Lumian naturally retracted his gaze and followed Xu Xinyang to the door of the ward with a normal expression.

He remembered that the information of the major arcana cards did not mention that Roland had a corresponding dream image.

Did he not know, or did he think it was unimportant and belonged to a simple NPC? Mr. "Fool" made Roland the vice president of Mushu Hospital Was the dream subconsciously woven to represent his certain cognition, or was Roland's dream image used by the "Great Mother" due to problems with his own path? Or, is this one of the "achievements" of Mushu Hospital? Madam Roland is the vice president, so who is the president? Lumian felt that this matter had to be reported to the Great Arcanas.

This did not contradict his idea of ​​"testing" by himself first and reaping his own results. He was worried that if there was a problem with the dream image, Madam Roland in the real world would also be affected, so he wanted to remind the Great Arcanas.

After leaving the ward, Lumian asked curiously:

"Captain Xu, what is the name of the president of Mushu Hospital? Why haven't I seen any news about him?"

Xu Xinyang turned into the elevator, thought for a few seconds and said:

"Strange, strange, I haven't heard of it either.

"I only know that Mr. Huang had a good relationship with this hospital before, and donated a lot of money to them to help them build it up."

Money... a lot of money... donation... Lumian felt that this should have been done when Emperor Roselle was still contaminated by the "Great Mother".

This also made Mushu Hospital rich and powerful, and it seemed that it was not worried about the problem of "money". Unlike the colorful painting hotel of "Fantasy Club", it had to squeeze the recipients and believers for decoration.

While waiting for the slow elevator, Lao Xia suddenly asked Xu Xinyang:

"Captain Xu, do you think Lao Wang and Lao Ding can return to their original state? They were so good at fighting before."

"Are you eyeing the position they left behind?" Xu Xinyang asked with a smile.

In the Intis Group, the security department is not only security guards, but also real security personnel, responsible for protecting Mr. Huang's family and important guests, providing security services for jewelry exhibitions, antique exhibitions, arms transactions, etc. held by various companies in the group, and protecting important mines through cooperation with local armed forces.

Lao Wang and Lao Ding are security personnel, and their salaries are much higher than ordinary security guards. If they are sent abroad, there are subsidies.

"Forget it, I can't take that risk, and I don't have that ability." Lao Xia waved his hands repeatedly, looking frightened.

Xu Xinyang looked at Lumian and smiled:

"Originally, I wanted a man in his 50s or 60s, but the HR department gave me the youngest one. Fortunately, Director Green was satisfied."

"Why do you want a man in his 50s or 60s?" The one who asked on behalf of Lumian was Lao Xia, who was only about 30 or 40 years old.

Xu Xinyang laughed and said:

"Security is a service position. You are too young, not smooth enough, and can't afford to throw a tantrum.

"Think about it, if you have a conflict with the employees in the building, which of you would lie on the ground without any burden, holding your chest and crying out in pain, saying you can't breathe? Old men in their 50s and 60s don't have such concerns. They dare to lie down, cry out, and blackmail. In that case, will the employees on the other side dare to be serious and continue to make trouble? An old man in the family is like a treasure!"

Lumian heard that Xu Xinyang was hitting him, thinking that he was inexperienced to quarrel with others on his first day at work.

Xiao Zhao didn't hear Xu Xinyang's implication, and asked stupidly:

"Why don't you just find someone over 70 years old?"

"What if he really gets sick on the job?" Xu Xinyang scolded Xiao Zhao angrily, "You don't feel sorry for Mr. Huang's money, right? "

Xiao Zhao chuckled and did not refute Xu Xinyang.

At this time, an elevator finally stopped at this floor, and many people were already crowded inside.

After entering the elevator and following it slowly down, Lumian suddenly felt that he and others were sinking into the dark seabed.

That was an illusion brought by his spirituality.

The illusion disappeared quickly because the elevator stopped on the next floor.

In this way, while the elevator kept stopping, Lao Xia muttered:

"It's a bit cold, the air conditioner is too strong..."

When we took the elevator upstairs just now, you didn't say this... Is it because we are currently descending and approaching the underground floors? Lumian An observed the other people in the elevator thoughtfully, and found that they all looked slightly pale due to the cold and chilly wind brought by the air conditioner.

Other than that, there was nothing else.

When the elevator stopped at the first floor, Lumian suddenly felt that it would fall like a free fall, and instinctively walked out quickly.

The feeling that the air conditioner was too good disappeared in an instant.

Lumian raised his hand and pinched his nose, and followed Xu Xinyang and others to the gate of Mushu Hospital.

Just now, he smelled a little blood.

After leaving the hospital building, the sunlight, which was only slightly weaker than before, instantly brought a golden and bright feeling.

"So I hate hospitals. "Old Xia muttered.

Lumian half-turned his body, looked at the busy hall and the upper floors, and summarized in his mind:

"There are indeed some abnormal details, but most of the doctors, nurses and patients here seem to be fine...

"If they all have problems, this city would have been polluted to an unknown extent, and Mr. Fool's subconscious mind would definitely react..."

As his thoughts turned, Lumian suddenly saw a face on a glass window on the twelfth floor.

The face was tied with white bandages, and only the eyes, nostrils and mouth were not covered.

He seemed to see Lumian, and the whole person struggled frantically, and then was forcibly dragged away from the window area as if being pulled by one person after another from behind.

Before Lumian could react, he disappeared.

But Lumian recognized him.

He was Lao Wang who had been sleeping when he and others visited the patient.

Lumian turned his body back and pretended not to see anything.

If he hadn't gone to find Anderson tomorrow night, he would have wanted to force his way into the ward on the 12th floor to save Lao Wang and see what accidents and changes would happen.

For Lumian, this was not impossible, but it had to be done after most of the experiments were completed.

…………

In a beef offal hot pot restaurant.

Xu Xinyang, who had requested a large private room and set up two tables, took white wine and beer and said to Lumian with a smile:

"Can you drink?"

"I can drink a little." Lumian answered with some fear.

"It's OK if you can drink. Drinking style is style, and drinking quality is character. Those who don't drink can't integrate into our security team 2." Xu Xinyang pointed to the subordinates around him and said, "Except for those on duty, those on assignment, those in the hospital, and those on vacation, everyone is here, so perform well."

Lumian heard from Franca that many companies welcome newcomers to parties mainly to test obedience and suppress newcomers so that they learn to be obedient, and drinking is the most common means.

"I, I try hard." Lumian forced out a few smiles with a heavy expression.

Two hours later, in the pile of various wine bottles that filled the table and the corner, Lumian held a bottle of strong liquor and said to Xu Xinyang with a smile:

"Captain Xu, drink it, why don't you drink it?

"Come on, let's blow the rest."

Xu Xinyang's face turned pale and he said uncoordinatedly:

"No, I won't drink it anymore. Wait, I have to pay taxes when I go home later."

Around him, Lao Xia, Xiao Zhao and others were either lying on the table or huddled in the corner, already asleep, some had just vomited in the toilet and were staggering, some gathered together, chattering endlessly, and some sat silently, motionless...
