Survival Paradox [Infinite]

Nineteen o'clock sharp.The nurse turned back into that kind of thing.

Wei Chi suddenly thought, could it be seven o'clock in the morning, and the hospital returned to normal?

Wei Chi told the news that the nurse had turned back into a monster again, and everyone's faces were obviously bleak.

Li Xia was greatly stimulated by these dead people, and he didn't recover much. At this moment, he suddenly broke down and cried: "Who the hell is doing this kind of thing... What is he going to do..."

Yuan Qi was so desperate that he wanted to cry, but he didn't cry for a long time, as if he had been with Wei Chi for a long time, and he couldn't help being surprised.He looked at Li Xia who was crying like pear blossoms and rain, and was even a little annoyed: "Sister, don't cry now..."

Wei Chi was caught by Li Xia's words.

——What is "he" going to do?

Like Wei Chi and the others who engage in scientific research, failure is commonplace, and those who can get it are all big hearts made of iron-propose a hypothesis, and use a hundred and a thousand experiments to prove it, the previous 99 times, 99 times They are all failures... and there is no bottom line. After working hard on some subjects for several years, it can only prove that the road is not working, and they have to overthrow everything and start over. Even this kind of thing is commonplace.

He is used to failure, to thinking, to asking questions and answering by himself, and to finding the right path.

He personally believes that all problems in this world are procedural problems. He does not believe in ghosts and gods, nor does he believe in them.In his view, supernatural powers such as ghosts and gods are just some kind of problem that humans have not yet deciphered. They are unknown. He is in awe of the unknown, but these unknown things cannot shake his solution to the problem.

He had been immersed in a small angle before, thinking about how to get out, so what if he could see a little bigger?What about another angle?Don't start from the time-stopped, headless self, but stand on a higher and broader perspective?

Li Xia's sentence, "Who the hell is doing this kind of thing...what on earth is he going to do..." is probably just a powerless question from her when she feels at the end of the road, without logic or examples...but if it is true What?What if?

What if there really is such a mastermind?It doesn't have to be a human being, it could be some alien civilization, it could be a ghost, it could be a god.

——He, or she, it, he... What exactly is he going to do?

- What is his (her, it, his) purpose?

——From this point of view?

Wei Chi found that after the change of perspective, his thinking has expanded a lot, and many things have been strung together in a streamlined line in his mind.If "his" purpose is to kill all living people in the hospital, there is no need to prepare a safe day and a group of "resurrected" people to interfere with the killing; if "his" purpose is to see The two sides fight for fun, then there is no need to make the medical staff invincible; if "his" purpose is to play with the survivors, watch them panic and give them respite during the day, then there is no need to make the monsters at night follow logic ...

What happened so far, time, different memories, day and night... very similar, very similar... forcefully put the two worlds together.

At night, he realized, those who died yesterday would become dead again, and the paramedics would become monsters... hunting the remaining living.

When will it end... until all the living people die?

--The results of it?

The result is that the dead all turn back into people without horrible memories during the day.

Just like Lin Fuguo, Xu Baishi, and Liu Qin today.

--and then?

Where did the people who experienced these horrific events go?

——Looking at it this way, his (her, it, his) purpose is to...

"Brother Chi." Yuan Qi called Wei Chi several times, but Wei Chi didn't respond, so he reached out and tugged at his sleeve, "Brother Chi... what's wrong with you?"

"I want to understand one thing." Wei Chi wiped his face, sat up straight under the expectant eyes of everyone, and said, "We can't die, we must get out alive."

Wei Yuan opened his mouth, and after a few seconds, he still said, "Is there even a need to think about it?!"

He really convinced these talented students.

Wei Chi knocked him on the head: "You don't want to die, it's just out of biological survival instinct, there is no evidence, this instinct can be broken. How dare you say that you didn't waver after discovering 'you can go back after you die once' Isn’t this a paradox—in order to survive, you choose to die—the logic is easy to collapse, and you are likely to die.” Wei Chi said, “But what I said ‘can’t die’ is different, it’s There is a solid logical and reliable conclusion—we cannot die, we must get out alive, and at least one person must be able to get out alive.”

Yuan Qi asked: "Otherwise, what will happen?"

Wei Chi thought for a while and said, "The world is destroyed?"

Everyone looked at him strangely, unable to tell whether he was joking or serious.

Wei Chi's expression didn't change, he was very calm: "Well, that's it, so let's figure out a solution now."

As night fell, the last ray of light in this world went down.

The ward 645 where they are now, the next ward round time is ten o'clock in the evening, that is to say, as long as they don't make any big movements to disturb the nurses, this ward will be safe until ten o'clock.

"No." Wei Chi frowned, and suddenly thought of something, what if the two little nurses were the same as the two yesterday, and someone was lazy?One person rounds the room and one person stays at the nurse's station. In this case, their current room is diagonally opposite to the nurse's station. If they try to run away again, the nurse at the nurse's station will definitely find out, "We have to change to another room." house."

Fortunately, it's just after seven o'clock, and it's not time for the nurses to be lazy.They saw through the window that the two young nurses with green faces went to round the ward together with a notebook, and one of them also carried a plastic bag.

Wei Yuan asked, "Shall we go now?"

Wei Chi said: "Wait." He then looked at the ward round schedule and the floor plan, first determined the ward round route for the nurses, then planned an escape route, and finally chose a room for the next ward round. It is the ward at twelve o'clock in the evening.

"Let's go," he said.

Wei Chi's plan is to avoid the night first, and complete the exploration work during the day.A few people followed Wei Chi to the target ward, and nothing happened on the way.This room is still full, four people died neatly.

Everyone found a place in the ward to start repairing.

Weiyuan's power bank was also running out of power. Fortunately, Yuan Qi brought a charging cable, and Li Xia also brought a charging cable. After trying it, the plug in the hospital still had power, so several people lined up to charge their phones.Yuan Qi is actually a very kind boy. Seeing that Hu Kai has not spoken much, he offered to help Hu Kai charge the battery. Hu Kai said that the system is different and refused.Yuan Qi's is an Apple cable, and Li Xia's is an Android cable. Yuan Qi asked Hu Kai to charge it at Li Xia's place. Hu Kai still said that the cable was different. Before Yuan Qi could say anything, he curled up and fell asleep.

Yuan Qi was a little strange. He had seen Hu Kai's cell phone yesterday, and it wasn't a niche model.

It was so lonely.he thinks.

Wei Chi's mobile phone was fed by Wei Yuan's power bank. He didn't need to arrange the charging cable anymore. He sat alone in the corner and turned on the screen. The time still showed yesterday's 49:[-].He clicked on WeChat, and with the mentality of giving it a try, he sent several messages to Ji Jingzhe, but unfortunately, none of them were sent.

A little later, while Zhang Yufan was going to the bathroom, Wei Yuan told Wei Chi, and took a bar of chocolate from Yuan Qi to Li Xia.Wei Yuan lowered his voice and added another sentence: "You may not like to hear me say this, your boyfriend is really not a good person. This... you can keep it for yourself, you are pregnant."

Li Xia glanced at him and said politely, "Thank you."

"What nonsense?" When Wei Yuan sat back beside Wei Chi, Wei Chi was still fiddling with his phone, without raising his head, he said, "Those who didn't know thought you were going to pry the corner of the wall."

Wei Yuan scratched his hair angrily: "I don't want to see flowers stuck in cow dung."

Yuan Qi said with experience, "Flowers are willing. Can you control it?"

It was another exciting day, and in the gradually deepening night, everyone slowly fell asleep.

Wei Chi didn't dare to sleep too deeply, and was easily awakened by the sound of thin and light footsteps.

... Footsteps?

Pata Pata Pata——

They stopped at the door of their ward.

He broke out in a cold sweat for a moment.

--what happened?

Have you slept?It's already twelve o'clock?

He stood up slowly and glanced at the digital watch next to his face - 21:03.

——What went wrong then?

The nurse outside the door did not move for a long time, did not knock on the door, and did not call for rounds.

He waited with bated breath for a moment, and heard the sound of unpacking plastic bags.

He exhaled, clenched his fists tightly, forced himself to calm down, slowly straightened his legs, and stood up straight.He had been resting against the corner of the wall behind the door, so when he stood up, his face was next to the door opening.

Stretching his head and retracting his head was also a stab, he slowly approached the door opening——

saw-

...the back of the nurse's head.

I saw a nurse standing sideways at the door with her back facing them, shaking the plastic bag in her hand, then squatting down, using a scalpel to fiddle with something, making a viscous, terrifying sound.

Wei Chi looked along and saw half of Xu Baishi's chinless face.

This ward is next to a corner, and Wei Chi suddenly figured it out, and the hospital floor plan in his mind was turned in a different direction—this corner is the place where Xu Baishi Yuxi died yesterday.

Before the two nurses had time to dig out Xu Baishi's heart yesterday, they were beheaded by that mysterious thing.

So today they came to make up for the digging?

After 2 minutes, the nurse put the bright red thing into a plastic bag and left.

Before the sound of footsteps disappeared completely, Zhang Yufan suddenly let out a long snort, Wei Chi rushed over and covered Zhang Yufan's mouth.Zhang Yufan was woken up by him, and was about to yell, but seeing his expression, he became quiet again.

The two waited for a while in the dark until the footsteps were completely inaudible.

Wei Chi let go of Zhang Yufan, and felt himself covered in cold sweat only after he relaxed.

If Zhang Yufan's snoring had been half a minute earlier, everyone in the room would have finished playing.
