I'm mentally retarded, who asked me to join Rules Monster Talk?

Chapter 237 I can’t tell the difference at all

Xiao Yi suddenly felt a strange sense of separation.

It's like suddenly realizing that your life is just a stage play, and you wake up from the state of being in the play, and everything around you that should be familiar feels strange.

A sense of discomfort that was stripped away and incompatible with the surroundings attacked Xiao Yi.

Not only the words and deeds of others, but also what he had done and said, Xiao Yi couldn't be sure whether it was an illusion...

In his own memory, he was extremely convinced that the things he had done and the words he had said did not actually exist. They were all just his own hallucinations... It was as if he was proving that he did not actually exist.

"..."

Xiao Yi suddenly felt a headache, and then...he returned to his original state.

"Forget it, since everything has become like this, let's just leave it like this. I'm too lazy to think about it."

Xiao is also very good at adapting to changing environments, because he feels that instead of thinking about what is going on, it is better to adapt first.

Besides, he couldn't think of things that were too complicated, so he temporarily forgot about the wonderful thoughts and feelings in his heart.

If anything happens, let’s talk about it later.

As for the specific time after that, it must be later.

Xiao Yi gave up thinking.

When Karl saw Xiao Yi's strange appearance, he frowned and asked hurriedly:

"Xiao Yi, are you okay? Are you hallucinating again?"

"Well..." Xiao Yi nodded lightly, "It's okay, it's just an illusion. I can deal with it well now."

Xiao Yi has already thought clearly. Since he can't tell what is real and what is fake, he won't distinguish it. It's all just hallucinations anyway, and it won't hurt him at all.

"Is...is that so?" However, Karl's face was still a little ugly.

"Well, that's it." Xiao Yi said confidently: "If you think about it carefully, the so-called hallucination is actually just that. There is nothing to worry about at all, so you don't have to be too anxious to find that medicine. .”

Xiao Yi couldn't tell whether the Karl in front of him was an illusion, nor could he tell whether what he was saying was really what he said, but it didn't matter to him anymore.

Anyway, it won't be accompanied by headaches or anything like that. As long as you don't care, hallucinations are nothing to be afraid of.

"Really? Since you have said so, I won't ask any more questions."

However, after Karl said this, the expression on his face became more solemn.

Immediately afterwards, he said to Xiao Yi:

"By the way, Xiao Yi, I remembered that there is one more important thing to do, and I really don't have time to spare. Can you help me close my clinic? I think it's not too early now. .”

As Karl said, he handed a bunch of keys into Xiao Yi's hand.

"Well, okay." Xiao Yi naturally did not refuse and accepted the key.

Karl went on to instruct: "Other doctors and nurses and those who have taken care of everything, you just need to lock the door. Also, the key to my house is also on it. After closing the clinic, go back home with Tess." Just have something to eat and I’ll try to come back as early as possible.”

After saying that, Karl wrapped his clothes tightly, walked towards somewhere, and left.

"..." Xiao Yi also looked at the bunch of keys that Carl gave him, and thought, "He gave me the keys, does it mean that I should go to work in his place?"

Xiao Yi suddenly had an idea. In fact, he had also thought about becoming a doctor. After all, doctors and lawyers are recognized as the two most popular professions with high IQs!

However, Xiao Yi immediately gave up the idea after seeing a lot of incomprehensible drug names. This incident also became his regret.

Now that he has this opportunity, how could Xiao Yi give up!

So, with a strong desire to return to the clinic, he quickly returned to the clinic.

……

After a while, a couple walked into the infirmary leisurely, and then saw Xiao Yi in a white coat.

Looking at Xiao Yi wearing a white coat in the live broadcast room, naturally he couldn't hold himself tight.

[Why are you really pretending to be a doctor? I hope I won’t diagnose anyone with any terminal illness later. 】

[Dr. Xiao, I have a disease where one of my hands disappears uncontrollably when I see you. How should I treat it? 】

【? ? ? 】

As for the couple, although they were a little confused about where the original doctor had gone, why did a strange doctor come? However, they didn't think much about it. They sat down in front of Xiao Yi and asked:

"Doctor, how is our child?"

"Your child? Who is it?" Xiao Yi imitated the doctor's posture in his memory and asked seriously.

"That's the child who is temporarily scheduled to be treated at your place this afternoon."

"Oh, let me take a look." Xiao Yi immediately flipped through the documents, and then... he looked at the couple and replied solemnly: "Your child... we have tried our best."

"……what?"

These words struck them on the forehead like a thunderbolt from the blue.

"This... how is this possible!?" The couple's faces were filled with disbelief, and tears flowed out unconsciously. "Did he not just have a cold? Could it be that he had some inflammation? How could this happen... He is obviously still so young, it's our fault! It's because we didn't take good care of him..."

Looking at the two people with tears streaming down their faces, Xiao Yi suddenly felt confused.

"What are you crying about? What's there to cry about?"

"Do you still need to say it? How can a parent not be sad when his child dies?" They scolded sternly: "You can even say such a thing, don't you have the heart?"

"...Huh? Who said he is dead?" Xiao Yi said helplessly: "I mean, we tried our best, so he is fine now."

"...Ah? But...this...ah?"

The couple was completely stunned. They thought about it carefully. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with Xiao Yi's words?

Instead, they want to know why on earth they interpreted the phrase "I tried my best" as meaning "it's gone".

Xiao Yi urged again: "Okay, if nothing happens, just take the person away, and then go to the front desk to settle the fee. The next patient is waiting."

"Oh...oh." The couple left still confused.

"What a reaction, I thought I was hallucinating again." Xiao Yi sighed, and then shouted towards the door: "Next one."

A man walked in immediately, sat in front of Xiao Yi and asked:

"Doctor, how is my wife?"

"Which wife is yours?" Xiao Yi asked.

"...Huh?" The man was stunned for a moment, "I only have one wife. No, you are asking me who my wife is, right? She is the pregnant woman who came for examination today."

"Really?" Xiao Yi flipped through the documents, and then asked the man: "To protect the elder or the younger?"

"...Ah!?" The man was completely dumbfounded. "No, isn't my wife here for a routine checkup? How did it end up like this?"

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, whether to protect the elder or the younger, decide quickly." Xiao Yi urged.

"But...this...I..."

The man hesitated without a doubt. This was one of the ultimate choices in life. How could he not hesitate.

Then, in a dilemma, he asked Xiao Yi:

"But... can you insure both of them?"

Xiao also replied: "Of course, your wife and children are fine anyway..."

"...Then why do you still ask me this kind of question?"

"That's all I wanted to say."

"..."

The man left silently, and Xiao Yi immediately shouted "Next" toward the door.

However, Xiao Yi was a little surprised by the person who walked in.

Because a nurse walked in with a helpless look on her face.

"What are you doing?"

……

In this way, Xiao Yi's career as a doctor ended. Although it was short-lived, Xiao Yi was quite satisfied. Under the supervision of other doctors and nurses, he locked the door of the clinic and returned to Carl's home.

As soon as Xiao Yi opened the door, he saw Gladys sitting there, seemingly bored.

"Ah..." Gladys heard someone opening the door and looked towards the door, but when she saw that it was Xiao Yi who was back, her expression immediately became panicked, "Ah! Xiao... Brother Xiao Yi, you are back... Where is my father?"

"He has something to do." Xiao Yi closed the door, walked into the inner room, and asked: "Have you been at home alone today? Didn't you go out to play with friends?"

"Ah...well, no..." Gladys' expression suddenly became depressed.

She seemed to want to say something else, but she opened her lips slightly and finally said nothing.

"..." Xiao Yi saw this and stopped asking any more questions. At the same time, he noticed something, "Huh? Are you the only one in the room? Who is that?"

"You mean Sister Liddy," Gladys explained: "She seemed to have fallen into the pool in a hurry yesterday. She had a fever today, so she asked for leave and didn't come."

"What is she doing?" Xiao Yi couldn't help but sigh.

Then, Xiao Yi remembered something. He and Karl had gone out early in the morning. At that time, Karl said that Letitia was taking care of Gladys, so there was no need to worry.

But I didn't expect that Letitia took leave, and Gladys's mother no longer lived here. In other words, this little girl spent the whole day alone, and... no one took care of her. .

Xiao Yi paused, "Tissi... have you eaten today?"

"Eat a little." Gladys said, "There is still some food left from yesterday."

"..." Xiao Yi was silent for a moment.

He knew that although Gladys was still smiling on the surface and acting as if nothing had happened,... she must be feeling very uncomfortable inside.

Xiao Yi and Karl ignored her, and Letitia didn't come. She spent the whole day alone.

Xiao can also understand her mood.

So, Xiao Yi immediately said: "Tis, you are hungry, please eat something."

"Eh?" When Gladys heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, "Brother, what do you want to cook for?"

"I..." Xiao Yi remembered the gentleman's words and shook his head, "No, let's go outside and eat whatever we want."

"Okay!" Gladys still looked very happy.

However, Xiao also didn’t understand why there wasn’t even a serious restaurant near Carl’s house?

Because it is a residential area, only residential houses are allowed to be built, and restaurants are not allowed? What an ancient view.

The closest thing to them is a grocery store, which sells snacks and the like at most.

Xiao Yi didn’t want Gladys to walk such a long way while hungry, so he said to her:

"Let's go to that store first and buy some instant noodles to pad our stomachs."

"...instant noodles?" Gladys wondered: "What is that?"

"Don't you even know about this national-level fast food? Then you will see it soon."

Xiao Yi said and took Gladys into the store.

When everyone in the live broadcast room heard this, they all thought that the background era in the copy would not have such a thing. But when Xiao Yizhen got it, they were all confused.

Xiao Yi thought that this kind of thing could be found everywhere, how could he not buy it, so he bought it.

The store owner was also confused, wondering when did he have such a product in his store?

But since he had money to make, he didn't say anything, and at the same time gave Xiao Yi and the others some hot water.

Afterwards, Xiao Yi and Gladys started eating on a nearby bench.

"This is...oh!" Gladys exclaimed: "What a magical food, so delicious!"

"It's not that delicious, right?" Xiao Yi said, "Is it because you feel it tastes good after you're hungry?"

"No." Gladys shook her head, "It's not just for this reason."

"Huh?" Xiao Yi wondered: "Then what else is the reason?"

However, Gladys did not answer, she just smiled at Xiao Yi, and then... gently moved her buttocks, getting closer to Xiao Yi.

Afterwards, Xiao Yi took Gladys out to eat a serious meal and then returned home again.

"Your father hasn't come back yet, so that's fine."

Xiao Yi said and opened the door with the key.

However, as soon as he opened the door, Xiao Yi noticed something was wrong.

He felt the sight.

"...!"

Xiao Yi suddenly looked inside the room, and then he saw a strange man standing there blankly in the dark corner.

His eyes were dull, and his body couldn't stop shaking slightly.

"...Eh? Who is it?" Xiao Yi suddenly felt wary.

And the man seemed to realize that Xiao Yi saw him, and immediately grinned at Xiao Yi.

He smiled brightly.

"..." Xiao Yi suddenly felt that this was his hallucination again, right?

After all, who would break into Karl's house and not run away but smile at others after being discovered? It seems to be another hallucination...

"Brother, what's wrong? Why don't you turn on the light?"

Gladys asked suspiciously when she saw Xiao Yi standing blankly at the door.

"No...it's nothing." Xiao Yi shook his head.

That's just an illusion. Don't pay too much attention to it, and there's no need to say it out loud so as not to scare the child.

"Really?" Although Gladys was a little confused, she believed Xiao Yi's words, then walked in, stood on tiptoes, reached out to the light switch, and turned on the light.

The pale light instantly illuminated the room, leaving no trace of darkness behind.

"Okay, let's go in quickly. Dad should be there right away...Eh? Who are you?"

Gladys said, suddenly stunned, she looked blankly in a certain direction, as if she was frightened and lost her mind.

And in the direction she was looking, the man was there, still smiling, and that bright smile sent chills down the spine.

"What...!?" Xiao Yi couldn't help being stunned.

Gladys could also see the man, which meant... wasn't that her hallucination?

However, Xiao Yi had no time to think about it carefully.

next moment! The man suddenly let out a strange, piercing cry and attacked Gladys fiercely! And...he still held the blade in his hand.

"Ah..." Gladys's pupils shrank sharply, and a sense of fear arose spontaneously. However, she was already so frightened that she couldn't use any strength.

"...!" Xiao Yi hurriedly kicked the man away!

However, after the opponent rolled on the ground several times, he still stared at Gladys, struggling to get up, and prepared to attack Gladys again!

Upon seeing this, Xiao Yi rushed over, aimed at his nose, and punched him several times! Beat him to death!

"..." The other party had stopped moving, but Xiao Yi's breathing was still rapid, because... he felt fear that he hadn't seen in a long time.

That fear called regret.

At this time, Gladys threw herself into Xiao Yi's arms and sobbed uncontrollably.

The fear was something she couldn't bear.

"..."

Feeling the little twitching in his arms, Xiao Yi didn't care about Gladys at all.

... Xiao Yi could have prevented Gladys from being so frightened. He could have dealt with that person in advance.

But... he caused the current situation because he regarded it as an illusion.

Xiao Yi subconsciously tightened his grip on his hair, and his eyes were no longer as firm as before.

"...In the end, what is an illusion and what is reality? I...can't tell the difference at all."
