The Last Gentleman

  Chapter 238 Questions

   Document approval lasted for three hours, during which Yi Chen also sat on the sofa without any movement.

  After the last document was signed and sealed, the female doctor stretched her arms backwards, stretched her waist hard and stretched her body. The tight figure under the white coat undoubtedly stood out at this moment.

  It's a pity that Yi Chen's eyes only stayed on the tea leaves.

   "I'm sorry~ Another large number of patients were sent in yesterday, and I need to review and sign each patient's information.

  We only need to go through a simple process and you are a "regular employee"... that's right! What you just drank is our special grave tea. This big bag is all for you, but you have to put it away.

   After drinking it all, you can spend money in the organization to buy it. "

"thanks."

  Yi Chen resolutely put the tea into his pocket, this kind of food suitable for his current physique is quite rare.

  The female doctor put her right hand on her chest,

   "I haven't introduced myself yet, have I?

  My name is Lu Xin, one of the attending doctors of Lushan Mental Hospital, who can provide various spiritual needs for any patient.

   I didn't expect to see you again in only two years. You are indeed a descendant of Mr. Yi, and your excellence is even higher than his. "

  Yi Chen only nodded slightly, without any response. He is not particularly interested in his father, whom he has never met, and it is enough to know that he is not a murderer.

  He is more interested in the [Orphanage] and why he didn't die.

  "You need to make a decision before signing a formal contract, because there are many types of employees, and we generally determine a suitable position for you in advance based on your performance during the temporary work period."

  During the speech, Lu Xin reached out and took a layer of foundation from Yi Chen's cheek.

   "The make-up skills are very good, do you want to consider staying with us as an "undertaker"? The risk is low and the reward is high, and you can enjoy some resources of the mental hospital.

   And your current state is very suitable for dealing with the dead. "

   "It's not impossible."

   "Haha, I knew you would agree! But let's use this as a "backup option" first. It's too wasteful for you to be thrown into the morgue at such a young age.

  And the ventilation in that kind of place is not very good, and it is easy to have a certain gap with reality after staying for a long time.

  You should still yearn for the life outside and more opportunities for growth, right? "

"Um."

   "Based on your excellent performance in the past two years, we have given you the status of an employee as "Lone Wolf". The sum of commissions and bonuses can reach more than ten times your current ones, and at the same time, you can enjoy the absolute priority of single-player tasks.

  The so-called lone wolf is not controlled, and all tasks need to be completed alone, which is not much different from the state during the temporary worker period.

  The "intelligence providers" in each region will enthusiastically connect with you, and you can easily do anything you want to investigate. Of course, some information will cost a lot of money, even very expensive. "

"Can."

  What Yi Chen learned from the orphanage is independence, and he is not willing to entrust some important things to his companions.

   After signing a few documents, he completed his regularization. There were no gifts of weapons or identity cards, and it was as simple as that.

  According to Dr. Lu Xin,

  The organization has completed the change of his identity information, and let all [people] who serve the organization know about it through telegrams, paging messages, letters, and other conceivable information transmission methods.

   "Let's go, I'll take you to the hospital. This is one of the most important strongholds of the organization. As a lone wolf, you will definitely deal with Lushan Mental Hospital frequently in the future."

"it is good."

  Lu Xin took the initiative to hold Yi Chen's little hand, quite like a sibling.

  As the two wandered around the hospital, Yi Chen gradually discovered the problem here.

   Those detained in the depths of the ward are not “mental patients” in the conventional sense at all, but the “weirdness” that needs to be involved in the mission goal.

  The entire Lushan Mental Hospital is more like an asylum institute.

  On the way to visit, I met many medical staff with sinister faces, all of whom had impressive fighting strength.

   "Asylum?"

   "That's right, the "weirds" who can be captured alive are all imprisoned here, and we will provide the most comprehensive spiritual treatment. If their mental illnesses can be cured, they can be discharged from the hospital and even become our members.

   Catching monsters alive can get 300% quest rewards, but you must do what you can. "

"OK."

   After getting a general understanding of the structure of Lushan Mental Hospital and walking through a long passage, Yi Chen finally asked the question he was most concerned about.

   "Doctor Lu Xin, do you know about an institution called [Black Mountain Orphanage]?"

   "The special institution jointly established by international organizations in our country has the right to intervene in 'first-level personnel' and is responsible for the elite training and selection of human children."

   "What does first-level personnel mean?"

   "All orphans, criminals, black households, etc., the orphanage has direct control authority. That is to say, these people can be directly assigned to the Montenegro Orphanage without any legal constraints.

  Yi Chen, you should be regarded as the only [escapee] since the construction of the Montenegro Orphanage, am I right?

   But don't worry, the information about you has been specially encrypted, and according to our investigation, the orphanage has regarded you as a dead individual and determined that you have been burned and cremated.

   Unless you purposely ran to the orphanage door and yelled, you would not be found.

   If my sister is right, you should really want to burn that place to the ground, right? "

"Um."

   "Great, people have dreams to live a meaningful life, and they are willing to go up against the current.

  I need to remind you that many forces will be involved behind the Montenegro Orphanage. Even our organization dare not directly interfere with some of the orphanage's actions.

  However, the organization will provide you with a growth platform and sufficient resources, hoping that you can reach the level of realizing your dreams as soon as possible. "

"thanks."

   "By the way, you should have something else you want to ask me?"

   "That's right... I have never been able to understand why I am still alive when I should die."

   "Wait a minute, I'm not very suitable to answer your question. We happen to have a professional who is proficient in death in our hospital, and he can give you a better and more comprehensive answer."

  Unknowingly, the two had come to the depths of the orphanage, passing by a ward here.

  A pitch-black tongue suddenly drilled out from the narrow gap between the door and the window, swinging up and down.

   Immediately afterwards, the voice of the old woman came from inside:

   "The smell of death is incomparably fresh~ This shouldn't be my food for today, right? Dr. Lu Xin."

   "This is a newly promoted employee. He has a similar homology with you and wants to ask you some questions about death. And he also specially brought you some greeting gifts."

  Yi Chen reacted very quickly, immediately took out the tea leaves in his pocket, pinched a small poke with his fingers and placed it on the exposed tongue surface.

  As the tongue rolls the tea leaves back inside, a burst of joyful voice comes out immediately:

   "Lushan Tomb Tea, and it is a tea produced by chance from the cemetery on the mountain peak on the Xiangyang side. The quantity is small but precious. It is really a good gift~ If there are more, I would like to chat with you for an hour."

   As soon as the voice fell, the door that was supposed to be closed opened by itself.

   It's as if the old lady inside is not imprisoned, and she can come out at any time if she wants to.

  Dr. Lu Xin made a welcoming gesture: "Grandma Tang is a lifelong resident of our place, she came to our place voluntarily about 17 years ago, instead of being arrested by us.

  According to the statement, she has been dead for more than four hundred years. You should be able to get the answer you want from her.

  Go in, there are not many such opportunities. "

  Yi Chen never expected that there would be a similar deceased in the mental hospital.

"OK."

   When you step into the room, pop! The soles of the shoes were in some kind of viscous, smoking black liquid, which filled the whole room.

  Yi Chen not only does not repel, but is very friendly to the black liquid,

  As the black smoke rose up, it was inhaled into the nasal cavity, and even further stimulated Yi Chen's body, and the same black liquid flowed out from between his brows.

  In the corner of the room is an old-fashioned dressing table made of locust wood.

  The old woman in court dress is combing her hair. There are no lamps in the house, and it is impossible to see her appearance clearly in the mirror only by the light from the passage outside the door.

  Boom! The iron door slammed shut, instantly cutting off the light penetrating through the passage, and the room fell into complete darkness.

at this time,

  Weak firelight came from the corner of the wall, and a red candle was actually lit on the dressing table.

  By the illumination of the fire, the face of the old woman reflected in the mirror can just be seen.

   White face, wrinkles, exaggerated red lips and two red spots on the cheek.

  The old woman was showing her flexible black tongue to Yi Chen through the mirror reflection,

   "Hurry up and feed me the tea~ I can't wait."
