Chapter 240 Speculation
Things are getting more and more confusing.
Guan Shan and Li Yunxuan both fell into deep thought.
The two left the shops along the street, and Li Yunxuan stopped in front of the rented second-hand car and suddenly said, "I have an idea."
Li Yunxuan held the open car door, his eyes kept turning back and forth, without any focus, and the expression on his face changed rapidly.
Guan Shan glanced around suspiciously and asked, "What's the idea?"
Li Yunxuan ducked into the car, crossed his arms, leaned back, and gradually relaxed his body. He said faintly, "This time the awakened people went crazy collectively, there must be someone behind the scenes pushing it."
"According to the results of the current investigation by the Demon Slayer Division, there are several more obvious characteristics of mad awakened people."
"The initial symptoms are irritability, emotional excitement, and easy to conflict with others."
"If it's more serious, there will be mental confusion, and some will even forget their identity as awakened people. Just like when we first met Shi Zhiyang."
"And the final stage is to go completely crazy and attack everything around indiscriminately."
"Once entering the final stage, those awakened people will die quickly, and the longest survival time will not exceed seven days."
"These awakened people, regardless of age, gender, occupation, or ability level From the perspective of the two, there is nothing in common. "
"In daily life, there is no common intersection."
"Do you think that all this is like some kind of infectious disease?"
"Some kind of extremely special infectious disease for awakened people?"
After listening to Li Yunxuan's words, Guan Shan subconsciously followed the other party's thoughts and continued to think. He nodded first, then slowly said, "It may not be an infectious disease, it may also be poisoning."
"But why did the person behind the scenes do this?"
"It is not easy to break through the walker stage without relying on official resources to cultivate."
"Whether it is the official or the demon clan, there is no reason to take action against these casual cultivators. Their influence on the current situation is too small."
"And to make such a big fuss, the cost behind it must be huge."
"What are they trying to do?"
The "beep beep" alarm sounded on the dashboard of the second-hand car.
Li Yunxuan fastened his seat belt impatiently, and complained very irritably, "Can't these car companies make some cars specifically for awakened people?"
"For awakened people in the walker stage, what can this broken belt do..."
Li Yunxuan was suddenly stunned, and a certain thought seemed to flash through his mind, but it was erratic and could not be grasped.
He spoke as if talking to himself, "Guanshan, we are awakened, right? We are not ordinary people, right?"
Guanshan glanced at Li Yunxuan with the corner of his eye, and said in confusion, "Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Ordinary people...if they feel unwell...where will they go?" Li Yunxuan seemed to catch the flash of inspiration and murmured.
"I will definitely go to the hospital for treatment. This is something that even children know..."
Crack--
The second-hand car stopped suddenly on the side of the road. Fortunately, it was still early and there were few vehicles on the street. Otherwise, Guanshan's sudden stop would inevitably cause two scoldings from old drivers.
"You mean, when the awakened ones find themselves feeling uncomfortable, they will also try to save themselves, so they will all go..." Guan Shan kept thinking about the answer in his mind.
But since he became an awakened one, he has been hiding his strength.
After killing all four sides in the awakening ceremony, he joined the military academy.
He only knew to find a medical class when he was injured, and he had no idea where those casual cultivators would go when they were injured or uncomfortable on weekdays.
"They will go to the black market."
"There are awakened ones who specialize in providing treatment services there, and even the official healing awakened ones occasionally go there to make extra money." Li Yunxuan gave the answer for Guan Shan.
"Let's go."
"Go to the black market!"
Guan Shan immediately stepped on the accelerator, turned the steering wheel to the right, and turned the car head on the road.
The exhaust pipe of the second-hand car spewed out a few puffs of black smoke in protest, but it still ran honestly.
The Yaoguang City Black Market is different from other main cities. It is open 24 hours a day.
After all, the black market is much more standardized in the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Division.
There are rarely vicious fights.
If it weren't for the awakener's madness this time, there wouldn't be a death in the Yaoguang City black market for many years.
The second-hand car stopped on the second floor of a shopping mall.
Li Yunxuan took Guan Shan and walked into the black market on the third floor of the underground.
In the black market, whether it was day or night, it was always brightly lit.
In the space of several thousand square meters, incandescent lamps were hung overhead, and occasionally carts and vendors came and went.
Compared with usual, the black market was a little quieter.
Many shops that were open all day on weekdays were also closed.
Guan Shan followed Li Yunxuan and shuttled left and right among the rows of shops.
After a while, they found a clinic with a sign called "Three No Rescue".
[First not to save: an idiot looking for death]
[Second not to save: a poor person with no money for treatment]
[Third not to save: a guy I hate]
"This doctor has a bad temper..." Guan Shan muttered as he looked at the shop rules hung in conspicuous red characters outside the clinic.
"The owner of this clinic is called Luo Ji. He is actually a good man, and his medical skills are beyond reproach. Even the senior awakeners in the medical class will come to him for help from time to time." Li Yunxuan curled his lips, as if he knew Luo Ji.
"I'll go in later..."
"Look at your eyes and actions." Guan Shan pointed at the big sunglasses on Li Yunxuan's face. He had learned to answer quickly.
Li Yunxuan nodded with satisfaction and pushed the door to enter the clinic.
The space in the clinic is not spacious, the layout is very compact, and every inch of space is fully utilized.
The rows of beds are made into bunk beds, separated from each other by only a simple cloth curtain.
There are at least more than 30 patients in sight.
All the patients are crowded together, making Guan Shan feel that they look like a group of lambs to be slaughtered.
Especially the occasional groans and incomprehensible nonsense at that time, which deepened this impression.
"Name, gender, age, type of superpowers, register yourself."
A rough voice sounded at the side.
Unlike the kind old man Guan Shan imagined, Luo Ji was a muscular man with a burly figure, and his skin was slightly roughened by years and sweat.
He was wearing a tight black vest, and his muscle lines were looming under the vest, as if he would burst the vest at any time.
Luo Ji sat behind a huge square table, swiping his mobile phone boredly, like a pile of meat standing in front of Guan Shan.
The standard-sized mobile phone, in his palm, was like a child's toy, funny and ridiculous.
Seeing that Guan Shan and Li Yunxuan did not move, Luo Ji added without raising his head.
"If you hear nonsense, have hallucinations, feel weak all over, and have memory confusion, and you have the above symptoms at the same time, eat whatever you like, don't die here."
