1838th "Experimenter"
"I've already heard about the matter from Mr. Kikuoka in advance. This week, Kapok Ji also mentioned your matter to me, saying that you are likely to come to visit, so I have already made preparations."
Doctor Canghashi said this to everyone.
"Anyway, I'll take you to see Kapok Ji first. Her ward is on the top floor of the central building, and it's a little far away. It's not bad for you to make some mental preparations now."
Leaving behind such disturbing words, Kurahashi led the way.
Luo Zhen and Asuna immediately looked at each other, one face was full of calmness, the other face was full of anxiety, but they held each other's hands tightly, followed behind Cangqiao, and went forward.
Kikuoka Seijiro had already completed his task, but he also followed behind Luo Zhen and Asuna, as if intending to watch the whole process from the sidelines.
Under such circumstances, the group walked towards the three elevators lined up in the lobby of the central building, and walked to the elevator marked "Staff Only" on the far right.
Cangqiao stuck a card on his neck to the panel on the right side of the elevator, and the door slid open immediately with a steady bell. start to rise.
According to Kurahashi, the twelfth floor, the top floor here, is a floor that is completely forbidden for outsiders to enter. Therefore, as soon as you step out of the elevator, there is a heavily guarded door in front of you.
Cangqiao put the card hanging around his neck close to the scanner next to the gate again, and put his palm on the panel for biometric authentication. The metal isolation rod came down with a slight metallic sound, allowing everyone to pass through.
With such strict security, it is conceivable that if Kikuoka Seijiro, representing the country, did not come here to clear the customs for Luo Zhen and Asuna, it would definitely not be an easy task to enter here.
This place is also different from the rest of the floors. There are no windows at all, and the passage covered by smooth white panels extends straight forward, and then divides into two roads on the left and right in front.
Cangqiao went to the passage on the left, allowing everyone to pass by several white-clothed nurses on the way, and came to a corner under the condition that they could hardly hear any noise from the outside world.
Here, on the right wall, there is an automatic door.
On the wall next to it, there is a metal panel set there.
The doorplate embedded in it reads such words———"The First Special Measuring Machine Room".
Kurahashi swiped the card through the gap under the panel.
"Didi!"
With the sound of an electronic sound, the door opened.
Inside the door is a rather long and narrow room. On the front wall is the same door as before. On the right side is a console with several monitors. On the left wall is a large horizontal window, but the glass is black. Yes, you can't see the interior at all.
Cangqiao stopped here.
"Behind this glass is an air-conditioned sterile room that cannot be accessed."
Kurahashi said so.
"Now, let you see the kapok season."
After saying that, Kurahashi approached the black window and manipulated the panel below.
A few seconds later, the color of the window immediately faded rapidly with the slight vibration, and finally turned into transparent glass, revealing the scene inside.
Both Rozen and Asuna clearly saw it.
What appears behind the glass is a room.
It was a room that was quite large in terms of size, but it seemed small at first glance.
Because, in the room, all kinds of instruments are full, mixed with tall, short, simple quadrilateral and various complex-shaped instruments. Only in the center of the room is there a gel bed.
"...!"
Asuna stuck to the glass almost instantly.
the reason is simple.
I saw, on that gel bed, a petite figure lay on it like it was half-submerged in the blue gel.
The white sheet covered her chest.
The bare shoulders were too thin to bear.
There are various pipelines on the throat and two arms to connect the surrounding machines.
There was a white cube integrated with the bed that completely covered the other person's head, so that people could not see her face, only the bloodless thin lips and pointed jaw.
The white cube was exactly the same as the picture Asuna had just seen in the car.
In other words, it was a full-dive machine for medical use---
However, the person using this machine is a pitifully thin girl.
That scene made Asuna's heart throbbing at some point.
Luo Zhen's eyes also changed.
Just because the scene in front of me somewhat stimulated Luo Zhen's painful past.
In the past, Luo Zhen was also like this, lying in a white ward, connected by various instruments.
Even Matthew collapsed after the fifth singularity, and his body has some problems, so he may still be in such a sterile room now.
As a result, such a scene naturally made Luo Zhen unavoidably irritated.
And Asuna confirmed it thoroughly.
"Is that Yuuki?"
Asuna's eyes looked so bitter.
Yes.
That is Yuuki, or in other words, Konno Kapok Ji.
Yuuki is only the opponent's character name, and Konno Kapok Ki is the opponent's real name.
And the other party was the experimenter of
"In May 2011, Kapok Ji's mother decided to undergo a caesarean section due to dystocia. Although it is impossible to confirm from the medical records now, at that time, because of the accident, Kapok Ji's mother caused a lot of bleeding, which made the doctor at that time It was decided to carry out an emergency blood transfusion to save the lives of the mother and daughter."
Kurahashi began to explain without any warning.
"Unfortunately, unfortunately, the blood that was infected with the virus was actually used at that time."
Kurahashi's words made Asuna involuntarily turn her head and look at him.
"Virus-infected blood...?"
Asuna opened her eyes wide.
"That's right." Canghashi nodded, and said in a sad voice: "Humans usually check blood to confirm whether they have been infected by a certain virus, but within ten days of infection, even nucleic acid tests cannot The existence of the virus is detected, and this period is called the window period.”
"During the vacant window, even if the blood for blood transfusion provided by blood donation is infected, there is still no way to detect it. As a result, even if the probability of a blood transfusion infection is only one in hundreds of thousands, the modern It is still impossible for science to reduce this probability to zero."
It is very obvious what the implication is.
"Mumianji's mother misused the infected blood, which eventually caused the mother, daughter and even the whole family to be infected with the disease."
Hearing those words, Asuna's heart beat surprisingly fast.
"...Yuuki... What kind of disease does Konno-san suffer from...?"
Asuna asked in a slightly hoarse voice.
Kurahashi lowered his eyes and answered.
"Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome."
"Common name—"AIDS". "
