"We really did our best." The few doctors all bent down towards Shi Xiaonian to express their apology and then left her side.
Shi Xiaonian stood there alone. The corridor was very long, as if there was no end to it.
She was there, growing colder and colder, cold to the point of despair.
Mu Qianchu was arranged to be in a special isolation ward, being watched by doctors and nurses everyday. Shi Xiaonian could only stand outside the glass and watch, she could not enter.
Mu Qianchu lied there, his head was wrapped up in a circle, his nose was filled with oxygen tubes, around the sickbed were all kinds of infusion bags, and every so often, doctors would come in to check his condition.Without the instruments, without the tubes, he looked like he was sleeping.
Shi Xiaonian suddenly thought back to the first time Mu Qianchu underwent craniotomy. She had accompanied him at that time, but she wouldn't be able to see him again later on, and he had already lost his memories the next time she saw him.This was the second time she accompanied Mu Qianchu to perform the craniotomy. This time, he did not lose his memories, but turned into a vegetable instead.
If she hadn't been so stubborn, he wouldn't have turned into this state. It was all because of her …
No, she couldn't think of it that way.The doctor said that Mu Qianchu had displayed a strong will to survive throughout the operation, she knew why.
Thousand Creations had said that he needed to cheer up, not blindly increase the negative emotions. He was afraid that she would be like this after being shot for so long, so his will to survive was this strong. He didn't want to break his faith in her.
She could not disbelieve him.
Shi Xiaonian looked at the person inside through the glass and swore silently. I will definitely pull myself together and please you to wake up.
None of them wanted to lose faith.
Three days later, Mu Qianchu's condition gradually stabilized, and changed from the special ward to the emergency ward. Before Shi Xiaonian even had the chance to enter, he was stopped by a few bodyguards.
She knew that Gong Ou's tolerance had reached its limit.
She was taken away from the sickroom and returned to the Imperial Castle. Along the way, she saw many places where they were packing up their corpses, the places where they had been blown up by bombs.
The panic caused by this incident had never happened before, but the security of S City had never increased.
As the carriage slowly entered the Imperial Castle, Shi Xiaonian turned to look at the dense forest, thinking about how she had stayed there for so long, she felt a sense of sadness.
The car stopped, and in front, the well-dressed Feng De stood there with a group of servants. Feng De's hair was snow-white, and his wrinkled face was very kind.Shi Xiaonian got off the car, and quietly looked at the old man in front of her. With a sour nose, she threw herself into his embrace, "Foster father."
Long time no see.The days in the forest were so closed that she almost forgot how she had lived them.
"I've suffered." Feng De embraced her and gently patted her back. His voice revealed thick feelings.
After the two of them separated, Feng De lowered his eyes to look at her stomach, and said with a smile, "Her stomach has grown a lot larger."
"Yes." Shi Xiaonian nodded, her hand subconsciously touching her stomach.
"Let's go in and rest for a bit." Feng De brought her into the castle, "I made arrangements for you to go to Police station in the afternoon to take your statement. You know how this is going to be."
"Yes."
Shi Xiaonian understood and looked ahead only to see that the things in front of the castle had been completely cleaned up. There were no longer any traces of the gunfight a few days ago.
There was not a speck of blood beside the fountain, and the water was still dancing to the music. It was so romantic.Feng De led Shi Xiaonian in, and walked up the stairs towards the bedroom. Shi Xiaonian opened her mouth and said, "Foster father, I want to look through the information this time."
Feng De was startled for a moment, and said, "It's better to rest. You've stayed in the hospital enough for the past two days."
"During this period of time, the people who accompany me the most are those who guard me. Even if I were to rest now, I would not be able to be at ease." Shi Xiaonian looked at Feng De, her eyes black and white.
Gong Ou could not understand her useless thoughts, but would Feng De understand?
Feng De looked at her. From the beginning to the end, the injuries on her face had not undergone any sort of treatment.
He sighed, "Then you have to be mentally prepared. If you get too excited, I'll take you away anytime."
"Alright.""Young master isn't home at this time, let's go to the study room." Feng De said.
The two of them walked towards Gong Ou's study room. The entire castle was empty and there were less people than before. The house seemed to be bigger and bigger, as if they couldn't walk any further.Feng De pushed open the study door and walked in. She had not been in here for a long time.
Sunlight seeped through the large area of the french windows and landed on the fluffy carpet. She vaguely remembered the scene when she was playing around with Gong Ou and reading books together.
In the corner was a large glass-fronted window containing the wedding dress, the gown she had gone to look at before she was caught, the family of four, and the two children.They were there, beautiful and white and holy.
Shi Xiaonian walked over and saw that on top of the easel was her incomplete work, the half-finished《 Marriage Letter》.
Shi Xiaonian bit her lips, her eyes completely red."Young Master has always kept this painting here. If you don't want to go to the office, you can just stay here and watch. He really misses you." Feng De said while standing behind her.
"Is he suffering?" Shi Xiaonian asked.
Feng De held onto a black folder in his hands, and upon hearing that, he said, "When you were initially gone, he would drink alcohol and then tie himself up and hide in a corner. At that time, I was very afraid that the young master would come back again."
That kind of young master was extremely stubborn to the point that he could even maim himself.
"…"
When Shi Xiaonian heard this, her eyes turned even redder.
"Afterwards, the young master became a bit better, but he became thinner and thinner, until he almost lost his shape." Feng De laughed bitterly and said, "I also know that not long ago, he went to see you. He didn't even tell me, afraid that he would leak out your information.""…"
Shi Xiaonian bit her lips until they were white. After a long time, she let go of her lips and asked hesitantly, "Foster father, do you think it's worth it for me to be like this?"
She wasn't happy in the forest, and he tortured himself out there just as badly."I'll have to ask the young master, but I believe the answer is yes." As long as it was related to the minuscule thought, the young master would be number one. The whole world would have to give way to him, and he himself would have to give way.
"But my answer is no." Shi Xiaonian said."…"
Feng De looked at her in shock. He didn't understand why she would suddenly say such words.
Shi Xiaonian raised her hand and slowly touched the incomplete marriage certificate. Her fingertip touched the edge on it, and that was a big red border of celebration, the color was so red that it was dazzling. She muttered, "My head is already getting harder and harder to wear the crown she gave me."
"minuscule thought, many things have happened to you in this period of time?" Feng De could feel that Shi Xiaonian was very concerned about something."…"
Shi Xiaonian remained silent.
Seeing that she seemed unwilling to say more, Feng De placed the black folder on the table beside her and opened it, taking out a few documents and opening them one by one.
Shi Xiaonian walked over and sat down in front of the desk. Lowering his eyes to look at the documents on top of it, the first thing that entered his eyes was the existence of all the people in their forest.Death count: 4, plus small F.
Number of persons unaccounted for: 5.
Heavily wounded: 7
Light wound: 19.Shi Xiaonian looked at the report in a daze. She recognized every single name on the report, and it showed a scene or two in front of her eyes.
F had sacrificed himself. It had knocked down the mad enemy and saved many of them.
The four people who were sacrificed were all from her team. The first name was to let them into the elevator, while she rushed out to meet the enemy herself …
They were both trying to protect her life, and at that time, she wanted to report to Gong Ou.
"Foster father, what exactly is going on? Tell me about it." Shi Xiaonian asked softly, "At the very least, I can explain it when I'm sweeping their tombs."Feng De stood there and looked at her. minuscule thought had always been a person who valued relationships greatly, and it was certain that he would be sad to see so many people die now. However, she was calmer than he had imagined.
"I didn't know about this at the beginning. Even I was on guard against the young master, he was extremely cautious." Feng De slowly narrated, "Actually, from the very beginning, Young Master's plan was to press on Lancaster and carry out another round of raids in Britain. But later on, he suddenly started to research robots and the MR Palace."
Studying the Mar Palace?
Shi Xiaonian was startled, then looked at her and said, "Young Master only told me later, that you found out something was wrong with the Er Palace."
"Me?"
Only now did he remember that she had mentioned to Gong Ou that the Mar Palace had its own consciousness. Because of this, Gong Ou started to study the Mr Palace, and from then on, he suspected that the Mr Palace was one of them.
But he hadn't said anything to her."What did you find out?" Shi Xiaonian asked.
"According to the data of the MR Palace, there is nothing wrong with it. Otherwise, it would have been found during the routine checks. However, the young master later discovered that there are some unknown information in the MR Palace, but there is something wrong with it." Feng De said.
"What does that mean?" Shi Xiaonian immediately asked, why did the numbers for the MR Palace appear hidden?
"There are two possibilities. One is that someone changed the data, and someone who could make such a change without leaving a trace is a master of science. Even in the N.E., there isn't such a talent, and there has never been such a person in the world before." Feng De said, "If you exclude the first possibility, then the second possibility would be for the robot to level up itself, and it would be your 'independent consciousness'. If this is true, then it would be a terrifying discovery."
A robot's self-improvement would mean that some sci-fi movies would come true.
"Did you find out which possibility it was?" Shi Xiaonian asked.
