Chapter 40 035. Hallucination?
The diary ends here, but it shows everyone the entire incident, or in other words, the past of Baimeng World.
In the first article of the diary on May 17, we can get a lot of useful information. The first is the name of the doctor. It is Dr. Onodera who informed all the death row prisoners about the rules and interactions after being mechanically transformed on the podium. , Saburo Onodera.
Japanese naming rules are very simple. The first two or three characters are the surname. Generally, the place of birth is used as the surname, such as Murakami, Murakami, etc., and a large part of the given name follows. Japanese residents are named according to the ranking of their children in the family.
So this doctor should be the third son of Onodera's family, so he is Saburo.
This information, to be honest, is not of much use to them, but thinking that this guy is a doctor in the laboratory, it may be used when verifying certain names later.
As can be seen from the first diary, the differences between the doctor named Mitarai and Onodera are that one is mechanical and the other is natural.
And from the penultimate paragraph of the first diary, it can be seen that the two of them have the same original intention, but the way of realizing it is slightly different. The two are competitors and help each other.
It is an extremely normal friendship.
Then there is the second diary entry on September 15th. From the first four paragraphs, it can be seen that the two of them have officially decided to compete and have made an agreement for one year.
From the fifth paragraph, we can see Dr. Mitarai's disdain and disgust for Onodera. It was at this moment that the seeds of entanglement between the two were planted.
Then comes the last article. The time has arrived on January 1st. According to common sense, it should be the New Year of the next year. The Japanese are different from the people in Li Ming’s hometown. In their country, January 1st is regarded as the New Year. There is no lunar calendar for the New Year, so the cultural differences between the two are still huge.
From the use of language in the diary and almost half a page of scribblings, it can be seen that Mitarai's mental state has begun to collapse, and finally decided to hide the experimental solution in every corner of the laboratory, waiting for Onodera's The electronic program crashes and comes back.
Speaking of the experimental liquid, Li Dian and Kurosawa subconsciously looked at the test tube containing the green liquid that had just been pulled out from the man's abdomen, and intuitively told them that these medicines should be the "experimental liquid" .
Dr. Onodera previously ordered that all death row prisoners must hand in these test tubes when they see them when they investigate the laboratory. This behavior indicates that this doctor whose brain is occupied by mechanical scrap metal may have discovered Mitarai. The act of hiding the original liquid.
So, the motivation behind this order is obvious.
Onodera wants to destroy all evidence of Mitarai's existence in this laboratory, including his hard work and his "children". If you put into the thinking mode of this scrap metal brain, it is easy to guess Onodera's next behavior.
That must have spread rumors or false news to make Mitarai, or Mitarai's informants in the laboratory team believe that Onodera had died in the experiment, and then completely eliminate this thorn in his side.
Putting these conjectures into real situations, all unsolved questions seem to have answers.
So.
Li Ming remembered that before entering this dreamland, the experimental records found there were all recorded from the perspective of Dr. Onodera. Except for the last one, which showed that Dr. Onodera was dead, what he found here was the record of Dr. Mitarai. .
Then combined with Dr. Mitarai's diary, we can get that they are actually in the east part of the laboratory now.
The layout of the laboratories on the east and west sides is exactly the same, so it can explain the fact that there are cells on both sides.
"What a pair of enemies who are different but share the same elements." Kurosawa sighed after reading the diary.
Yes, Li Ming also has this idea. This sentence refers to that although they have different beliefs, their ultimate goal is still the same. It’s just what kind of changes happened later that will make them Dr. Onodera falls into madness.
If it was just because the machine had corroded his brain that his words and deeds were completely different from before, Li Ming wouldn't believe it.
But then again, Li Dang also secretly thought about what role these patients should play in the world of white dreams——
From the appearance , Dr. Onodera ordered them to find the experimental liquid and hand it over. So from another level, the Baimeng World regards these patients as people who are in the same camp as Dr. Mitarai, so it becomes their mission to reshape the integration of nature and humans. Main purpose.
The ending seen in advance before entering the deep dreamland can also be seen. Dr. Onodera's experiment failed, and was eventually destroyed due to unknown elements, and was finally buried in the doomsday.
But if, I mean if, if, if, suppose that Li Ming - others may not know, but he already has this tendency - does not act as an accomplice of Dr. Mitarai, but in turn combines both of them. Sent to the end of the world, what will be the ending of this white dream story?
Things are really getting more and more interesting.
Li Deng leaned against the desk, holding his chin with both hands, and grinned slightly, pretending to be a shrewd businessman.
"Mr. Li, what are you thinking about? I see you standing over there and touching your chin. I'm thinking that you don't have a beard and you pretend to be serious. It's quite funny. ." Kurosawa's voice sounded, interrupting his contemplation.
"Nothing."
Li Ming frowned. Don't tell them your current ideas for the time being. They are all individuals with independent thoughts and let others obey them. This way It is the most selfish behavior.
Thinking of this, he looked up at Kurosawa, smiled slightly, pursed his lips and shook his head.
"Since there is nothing wrong, hurry up and investigate other places. After seeing the diary, you can already understand the general situation of the Baimeng incident. I have a hunch. If we don't escape from here within three days, , something bad will happen."
"Go right now."
Li Ming responded in his heart and continued to investigate in the room.
But when he first started investigating, another flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and that was about the piece of meat he found in the desk drawer before entering the deep dream.
Although I don’t know what kind of creature that piece of meat comes from, why does it burn naturally when exposed to the air? At first he thought it was related to those green potions.
But as time has passed, when I try to conceive it now, I actually want to overturn the previous theory, even though no relevant clues have been found.
After silently jotting down the doubts in his mind, Li Dang returned to investigating the incident, together with Luo Bao.
In the end, after some searching, they found another piece of white paper behind the desk. The title of the white paper was the same as the previous one, except for a number. From this, it can be seen that there is a relationship between them. Relevant.
「B-107-2 Experiment Record」
"At the beginning of the second experiment on this subject, we first tested which plants were suitable for this subject, and finally found that vines have the highest adaptability."
"I have already I sent people to plant this kind of plants in the breeding cabin of the laboratory, and watched them grow day by day, and I felt a sense of pride. This is my child."
"Looking at it from the observation deck. I took a look at Dr. Onodera’s experimental space next door. It was smoky, and the machine was operating uniquely. With some characteristics, sooner or later he will be driven to death by his own works."
"I will definitely win this competition in the end, and I will prove to all mankind that my point of view is completely correct."
"To be honest, since the beginning After conducting research day and night in the laboratory, my memory became worse and worse. I didn’t know where I had thrown the notebook I used to write diaries every day. From now on, I will write my daily diaries in the laboratory Record it."
"In this case, even if I forget what I have written, these experimental records will be specially included to prove to everyone the traces I left."
"Eternal life, please respond. My call."
It can be seen that there will be more valuable information in the subsequent experimental records, and this is also thanks to the doctor's forgetfulness.
There is nothing particularly valuable in this experimental record. Li Dang feels that the doubts are mainly concentrated in the last two paragraphs.
I had previously guessed that Dr. Onodera had actually read what Mitarai had written, so the last second paragraph can prove that this guess is completely correct.
The experimental records will be specially kept. Even if Dr. Mitarai leaves, if Onodera comes here one day to check the experimental records, he will find everything Mitarai recorded on them. Of course, this must be based on his forgetting to delete the records. .
As for the last sentence, the reason why Li Ming felt a little suspicious was because he had learned from his previous diary that Dr. Mitarai's favorite game was Warcraft, and this sentence was a bit like the one in the game. One of the shaman's lines.
Thinking of this, Li Ming couldn't help but laugh at himself. This discovery seemed to have no substantial significance. Could it be that it could prove that Dr. Mitarai said this because he loved to play shaman? Is the priest or his family the shaman?
Don't be ridiculous.
“Speaking of it, there are really all kinds of subjects in this laboratory.”
Kurosawa stood aside, looking coldly at the investigation behavior of Li Dang and Luobo in front of him, and tucked the hair hanging down from his forehead to his ears.
"You can see it from the woman I saw before. This kind of thing can become a stepping stone for "the great steps of the future of mankind." I really can't imagine what I will encounter in the cell next. All those who arrived were monsters and monsters. ”
Great steps for the future of mankind.
This term was just invented by Kurosawa. For some reason, this came to mind after she saw these experimental records and diaries. A term that is quite appropriate to a certain extent.
"Sister Kurosawa, this room has been investigated. Shall we go to the next room?" ”
Carrot was rummaging around in the cell casually, as if a thief had entered someone else's house and rummaged through boxes and cabinets.
When he found that all the places where items could be loaded were empty, he energetically jumped to the side of the cheongsam girl and made a gesture.
"Don't worry, sister, Luo Bao will definitely satisfy you when he takes action. He will definitely not be like a guy who exudes a gloomy aura and is indifferent to human affairs at all."
Luo Bao said this As he spoke, his eyes deliberately looked towards Li Ming, and it was obvious who he was targeting in his words.
"I have a gloomy aura all over me? I am not interested in human affairs? If you say this, does Ming An behind you agree? This guy is the real gloomy person! I haven't investigated it until now!"
Li Dang cursed in his heart, but he did not write these words on the white paper.
The first one is that it feels a little impolite to say this to others; the second one is that writing these things on white paper is such a waste of paper. They may not have read what they wrote before, so what? It is better to save the few remaining pieces of white paper and write again when you have to use them.
The four of them walked out of Room 309 talking and laughing, and turned their attention to the next room, Room 308.
Just when they wanted to continue searching and investigating the room, they were shocked by the scene in front of them -
The walls inside were actually covered with strange animals. The animals seem to be running and jumping, but they also seem to be flying. In short, it makes people feel very weird.
Li Dang looked at it carefully for a while, and suddenly felt that his mind became more confused. He rubbed his eyebrows with his right hand, suppressing the fear in his heart.
Logically speaking, this should be Dr. Mitarai's experimental area, which is specially used to test the combination of humans and nature, and has been designated as plants, but why is it filled with animals?
“Look!”
Carrot pointed at the animal patterns on the wall and shouted. His voice attracted everyone’s attention. They saw the place where the animal patterns were painted on the wall. A huge red cross stood quietly.
On the bright red cross, there is a small red dot flashing red.
"What does this pattern mean?"
Hearing Carrot's cry, Li Dang felt his scalp numb. There were crosses and countless animal patterns. Could it be that an unknown secret sacrifice was going on here? Sacrifice?
Just as several people looked at each other, the lighting in the laboratory flickered a few times and suddenly went out, and endless darkness rushed in like a tide.
But before they could fully adapt to the darkness, the pale lights turned on again. Li Dan rubbed his eyes, only to find that in front of him, on the wall of room 308, those animals and The crosses were gone, as if someone had taken the opportunity to repaint the walls.
What happened just now?
Li Ming was very sure that he saw it correctly. Could it be an illusion? If you stay in this kind of experimental site for too long, you will have hallucinations. Is this a law?
Although the place they are in now is also a dream, a space composed of special illusions that can be touched,
What is going on?
Ten Thousands of Days Tomorrow
