Chapter 78

Xu Ye waited in the corridor, and when he saw Huan Yan appearing, he immediately greeted him.

He looked at Huanyan carefully for a few seconds, and then asked, "Do you want to have a detailed physical examination as well?"

"No need," Huanyan waved her hand and refused, "I'm fine."

Xu Ye was a little puzzled, Xia Tuo was not in good condition after being poisoned with a slight poison, but Huanyan was completely fine after being poisoned?

But he is not a talkative person, seeing that Huan's complexion is very good, and he doesn't look weak at all, so he didn't ask any more questions.

If it was said that his attitude towards Huanyan before was like treating an unfamiliar guest, then after experiencing this incident, he respected this little girl who was much younger than himself very much.

Therefore, if the other party is unwilling to say more, he will never ask more.

"How is Xia Tuo?" Huanyan asked while following Xu Ye to the ward.

"Brother Xia passed out." Xu Ye's voice was a bit heavy, "I asked the doctor to do a comprehensive examination, and some examination reports have not yet come out, so we need to wait."

"Is he poisoned so badly?" Huanyan walked into the ward as she spoke, and saw Xia Tuo lying on the hospital bed.

Xia Tuo's face was pale, his lips were completely bloodless, and even his breathing seemed very weak.

Even in his drowsiness, his brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was annoyed by something.

"The poisoning itself is not that serious," Xu Ye explained, "But Brother Xia himself is not in good health, and his emotions are particularly intense when he is out of the game, so the impact of the poisoning is aggravated."

Because it is not clear what the toxin is for the time being, the doctor dare not use drugs indiscriminately, so now he can only do some basic treatment to stabilize Xia Tuo's vital signs.

Compared with when he first arrived at the hospital, Xia Tuo is now in a much more stable state.

"He's emotional?" Huanyan showed a look of surprise, after thinking for a while, she asked, "It's not because I force-fed him with milk, so I'm angry, right?"

"No." Xu Ye said with certainty.

"Then he was too emotional because he was so happy to clear the game?" Huanyan asked again.

Xu Ye: "..."

Ms. Huanyan seems to be... well, how should I put it, she usually looks very smart, why is it that she seems a little... a little out of her wits?
After thinking about it, Xu Ye chose to tell the truth: "Brother Xia should be worried about you."

Although Brother Xia didn't say anything at the time, he could guess a thing or two when he saw Brother Xia's expression.

He has been with Brother Xia for so long, even when Brother Xia was prone to mood swings when he was a child, he never showed such a frantic look.

After growing up, Brother Xia has been able to control his emotions almost perfectly, but under such circumstances, he still lost control.

Knowing that too intense emotions will burden the body, Brother Xia still couldn't control himself.

Thinking about it, Miss Huanyan's actions this time should have touched Brother Xia a lot.

"Worried about me?" Huanyan showed a puzzled look, but then she seemed to think of something, and said seriously, "The situation was special at that time, I can't say that I won't die, it made you worry."

She thought of Xia Liangmeng.

I remember that at first she was also puzzled by Xia Liangmeng taking care of her, but later she understood that it was kindness.

So Xia Tuo should also be out of kindness.

Although she didn't have much understanding of the quality of kindness, but thinking about Xia Liangmeng, she could understand Xia Tuo.

If others are worried about her out of good intentions, then she should politely express her gratitude or apology.

Thinking of this, Huanyan walked to Xia Tuo's hospital bed, and naturally held Xia Tuo's hand.

Since Xia Tuo was partly responsible for this coma, she should cooperate and do something to make Xia Tuo recover as soon as possible.

Xia Tuo said that if she made physical contact with him, his heart would recover faster.

The heart condition is better, and the effects of poisoning should also be alleviated a little.

Seeing Huanyan walking over suddenly, Xu Ye held Xia Tuo's hand. He froze for a moment, then he didn't know what he thought of, and silently exited the ward and closed the door.

Soon, all the inspection results came out.

Fortunately, the poison in Xia Tuo can be completely relieved, but this time it caused a lot of load on the heart, and he needed to be hospitalized for a few days to recuperate.

In the next few hours, after giving Xia Tuo a few bottles of targeted potions, the toxins in his body were completely detoxified.

But he didn't wake up right away.

Huanyan felt that staying by Xia Tuo's side would help Xia Tuo recover faster, so she took the initiative to be an escort in the hospital.

It is said to be an escort, but in fact she is only responsible for sitting by the bed and holding Xia Tuo's hand, and she does not take care of other things.

Even so, this was the first time in her memory that she did things for someone like this.

In addition to thinking that part of the reason for Xia Tuo's coma was due to her, it was also because whether she chose to save Xu Ye in the game or worried about her outside the game, it all proved that Xia Tuo was a good person.

The combination of the two reasons made her feel that it was okay to do something for Xia Tuo a little bit.

During this period, Xu Ye and Huanyan didn't communicate too much.

Although Xu Ye had many questions about Huanyan, he didn't like prying into other people's privacy. Since Huanyan didn't take the initiative to say it, he probably didn't want others to know, so he thought he shouldn't ask more.

In this way, a day and a night passed.

The next morning, Huanyan was holding Xia Tuo's hand in one hand, and eating the seafood porridge Xu Ye bought with a spoon in the other.

Suddenly, she felt Xia Tuo's fingers beating in her palm.

She turned her head to look over, and saw Xia Tuo's eyelids trembling twice with some effort, and then opened them.

Xia Tuo's eyes were a little blank, as if he hadn't realized where he was, nor remembered what happened before.

Huanyan dropped the spoon in her hand, leaned over and rang the bed bell.

Then she lowered her head to observe Xia Tuo's face: "Xia Tuo, how do you feel?"

Xia Tuo's eyes rolled slowly, and the moment he saw the happy face, he seemed to think of something.

His pupils constricted for a moment, and his fingers moved again, realizing that he was being held by Huan Yan, and the warm body temperature passed over, making him convinced that this was not an illusion.

Without warning, Xia Tuo suddenly raised his arms to embrace Huanyan.

Huanyan wanted to push away subconsciously, but controlled herself in the next second, letting Xia Tuo hug her into her arms.

She can understand this behavior, celebrating the rest of the life after the catastrophe, many of them are performed like this on TV.

Since Xia Tuo had just woken up, she gave him a break.

"You're still alive." Xia Tuo's voice was a little hoarse, but there was a bit of undisguised joy.

"Yeah." Huanyan replied affirmatively, "I'm living a good life."

At this time, the door of the ward opened, and a group of doctors walked in together with Xu Ye.

Seeing Xia Tuo's smiling face, Xu Ye's heart moved slightly, but he didn't mention anything.

"Brother Xia," Xu Ye said to Xia Tuo, "You just woke up, let the doctor do a checkup."

Xia Tuo let go of his joyful face, and there was no embarrassment on his face that was noticed by others.

Huanyan stepped back, picked up her porridge bowl, sat a little farther away, and watched the doctors fiddle with Xia Tuo while eating.

After some basic examinations, the doctor informed that Xia Tuo's physical condition was stable and his heart was not damaged, but further examinations were needed to make sure.

So Xia Tuo was pushed out to take various films and had several tubes of blood drawn.

When Xu Ye pushed Xia Tuo back, Huanyan had already finished her breakfast and fell asleep on the accompanying bed.

Seeing this, Xia Tuo asked Xu Ye softly, "When did she come back?"

Pushing Xia Tuo to the side of the hospital bed, Xu Ye replied, "She called me about an hour after we left the game."

Xia Tuo went to the hospital bed and sat down, then asked, "Has she been here all this time?"

Xu Ye nodded, thought for a while, and added, "She has been holding your hand, and she seems to be very concerned about your physical condition."

Xia Tuo subconsciously looked down at his palm.

Huanyan's body temperature has long since disappeared here, but he still remembers that soft touch.

"She was also in bed at night." Xu Ye said again, "Sitting on the side of the hospital bed all the time, without much rest."

Xia Tuo looked at Huanyan again.

So now you are sure that he has woken up, so you can rest assured to sleep?

His eyes softened unconsciously.

Unaware of the happy faces of the two men, they slept soundly, and were not awakened by the delicious food until lunch time.

Seeing Huanyan sitting up, Xu Ye put the sumptuous barbecue meal he just bought on the small table beside him.

Huanyan's eyes became bright immediately: "Is this for me?"

"Yes," Xu Ye nodded, and then he took out another cup of milk tea and said to Huanyan, "This is what Brother Xia asked me to buy for you."

Huanyan immediately smiled, and she looked at Xia Tuo: "Not bad, you have started to fulfill your promise so soon."

There was only a bowl of clear porridge in front of Xia Tuo. He was frowning and looked a little unhappy, but when he saw Huanyan smiling at him, he coughed dryly: "I always keep my promises."

Huanyan didn't say anything more, she buried her head in eating her lunch seriously.

Seeing Huanyan's relish, Xia Tuo felt that his appetite improved a lot.

It's a pity that he just woke up and can only eat something light.

After lunch, Xu Ye packed up his things and went to the company to pick up the computer and some documents at Xia Tuo's request.

Huanyan stayed with Xia Tuo in the ward.

"It's hard work being the boss. I'm so sick, and I still have to think about the company." Huanyan propped her chin with one hand, and cast a sympathetic look at Xia Tuo.

Especially for Xia Tuo who is so weak, it is really not easy to hurry up to deal with the company's affairs during sick leave.

Xia Tuo is used to this: "Investment and return are equal. Only after I have paid these can I get the result I want."

Huanyan didn't ask what Xia Tuo's desired result was. She changed the subject in a very jumpy way: "After you all left the game, I learned some additional information."

Xia Tuo froze for a moment, and it took a few seconds to catch up with Huanyan's thoughts.

He asked, "What message?"

"I should have seen the game controller." Huanyan said to Xia Tuo, "It's not a human being, and it doesn't even look like a creature. It's hard to describe what it is, anyway, it's a strange thing that we don't understand yet. "

Xia Tuo tried hard to understand, and then asked, "A monster?"

Huanyan shook her head: "No, it looks more like a piece of dark cloth, just an object, but it can talk, have emotions, and have logic of thinking."

"A piece of cloth?" Xia Tuo was a little stunned.

This is really beyond the scope of his imagination.

So, is it similar to items becoming fine?

"Well," Huanyan held her chin and fell into deep thought, "but I always feel that there is a higher level behind it."

Xia Tuo's thoughts immediately jumped out of "how can a piece of cloth become fine", and he asked, "Why do you think so?"

"It mentioned 'performance' and 'other guys'." Huan Yan looked into Xia Tuo's eyes and said very seriously, "Is it very similar to what 'employees' said?"

"Indeed." Xia Tuo thought for a few seconds, and said, "Normally, there must always be a 'king' in a group, so that it is beneficial to control all other characters to do things well in their respective positions. If there is no 'King' in the group, and the relationship is purely mutual cooperation, it is easy to have conflicts of interest and discord, then the game may not go on so smoothly."

"That's right," Huan Yan nodded again and again, "And that piece of cloth is very concerned about its 'performance', it feels like employees care about whether the 'performance' is up to standard, and whether they can hand over to the boss."

Xia Tuo also nodded: "It says 'other guys', which means that there are other game controllers like it. The games are different, and it's normal to have different game controllers."

After a pause, he continued: "But the running framework of the game is the same. They all enter a game space, and they can only come out of the game space after the game is over. Dead players will be killed reasonably, and players who pass the level will return to the game space. In place."

He poured himself a glass of water, took a sip, and continued: "Whether the player suddenly appears or disappears, it has not attracted any attention from the outside world, including the fact that we cannot tell humans who have not participated in the game. The patterns could all be caused by what you said were higher-level beings."

If the game controller is only responsible for creating and improving the game content, then the external operating framework is unlikely to be made by these things.

This means that there must be another special existence, manipulating all this behind the scenes.

"By the way," Xia Tuo thought of something, and asked Huanyan again, "What does it mean by 'performance'? Is it the performance of how many players can die in a game?"
