Chapter 54: One and One Shelter

"My father... has been very...grudging and irritable since you and your father escaped. He opposed our request and forced us to return to our original life... We didn't want to do this, but that riot... I know you shouldn't blame you. The mutant cockroach bit many people. We need medical treatment and doctors, but... there is no. We asked the machine housekeeper to treat her, but... Oh my God it sawed her whole foot... She just had her toe bitten... "

Yamata's words were a little messy, but they were enough to let the two understand a lot. Su Jing walked into the operating room next to him and took a look. On the operating table was a middle-aged woman who had been dead for a long time lying. Her eyes were wide open, her hands were tied to the hospital bed with a belt, and her right foot was sawed off at her ankle. On the edge of the hospital bed, a housekeeper robot similar to Mr. Kuangfeng was humming happily. His detection probe turned around a few times, and saw Su Jing, and greeted happily:

[Good afternoon, sir. Do you need surgery or similar medical services? Haha, just kidding, I have been banned from medical operations, which really makes me confused. I miss the wonderful time of curing diseases and saving people. The lady's foot was seriously injured and I had to undergo an amputation procedure. It's a pity that she couldn't hold on... Do you want a drink?]

"...Next time." Su Jing tightened his face and gently patted the machine butler's round head.

Su Jing, who walked out of the operating room, saw Adam ending his conversation with Yamata, and turned to find a wounded person lying on the hospital bed. He frowned and uncovered the gauze. The smell of rotten and blood came to his nose. The wound that looked like a bullet penetrated began to reveal black and purple, and the situation was not optimistic.

"I need medical devices. If there is a treatment needle or a strong spirit, it will be fine, but the drug reserves here are already..." Adam turned his head and looked at Su Jing, who shrugged his shoulders, then took out a syringe and a bottle of pills from the medical bag on his waist and threw it to Adam.

Adam first wiped the patient's wound with alcohol cotton, and then used tweezers to grab a brass bullet from the wound. Then he pulled out the needle cover of the treatment needle and injected it into the patient's intravenous veins. After completing the preliminary medical treatment, Adam took out a round and strong spirit from the bottle, broke it into two pieces, half of it was stuffed into the patient's mouth, and half of it was crushed into powder, and evenly sprinkled on the wound. Finally, he rebanded the wound with a roll of new gauze.

"You can get out of bed and walk in two days."

While Adam was focusing on the treatment, Su Jing noticed that Yamata was staring at Adam's focused side face. He didn't even have to let out telepathy to know what the little girl was thinking.

Yes, telepathy.

After completing the second level analysis at Bennister Fortress, Su Jing began to initially possess telepathic ability. This ability is still very immature, but he can vaguely sense other people's emotions within three meters. He can feel the strong hostility of others within ten meters, just like a needle stuck on the back of his neck. It is very simple ability, but it is also very convenient to use it at the right time.

At this moment, he quietly released his telepathic ability and felt the emotions of this girl named Yamata. Then Su Jing tasted it, which was a sweet and bitter mood. Su Jing guessed the source of this mood. The sweetness was naturally because of his love for Adam, and bitter...why?

Is it because Adam can't stay here forever? Su Jing raised his eyebrows slightly.

"I really didn't realize that you have such a skill in medical care." After the medical treatment was completed, Su Jing was the first to applaud.

"I learned from my father before. When I was a child, he taught me the knowledge of human health and some computer technology." Adam showed a shy smile and stood up to look at Yamata. Su Jing felt that he seemed to want to take a step forward for a moment, but for only a moment, he turned around without a trace and walked out the door.

"I'll go and talk to the supervisor. I think this matter will definitely have a happy and peaceful ending. Mr. Su, please stay here for a while." Adam put down his backpack and weapon and walked out empty-handed.

Regardless of the strange eyes of the people around him, Su Jing found a chair to sit down. His telepathic ability did not need to be expanded to read out their thoughts: curiosity, doubt, fear, hatred...

[People coming from the wasteland?], [Either robbers or barbarians, why did Adam bring him back?], [Can he eats people...], [A person who looks very quiet must know a lot about the outside world...]

It's just these thoughts. Su Jing can guess what they are thinking specifically with these simple thinking radio waves combined with their eyes.

"Mr. Su, Adam said you helped him a lot outside." Yamata brought a chair over and sat opposite Su Jing, "Thank you for taking care of him outside,"

"It's just a matter of raising your hand." Su Jing smiled.

"Mr. Su, maybe you already know that we really want to contact the outside world and see the sky outside... Can you please explain what the outside world is like now?"

Su Jing thought for a moment, cleared his voice, and then he began to whisper:

"After the end of the great war, more than two hundred years have passed, and a new human civilization has gradually emerged in the wilderness. The glory of the old days is still shining, and the ambition of the new era has risen; the banner of justice is still flying, but the evil army is ready to go... Everything can be told from a rebels at a secret experimental base before the war. They discovered that they were guarding the inhuman experiment of human viruses, so they gave up their sinful mission, announced that they would be out of control of the US government from that day, and called themselves the Brotherhood of Steel..."

With his oratory-like history courses, many listless young people pricked their ears, and slowly, some people moved closer to this place, and everyone was listening attentively to the post-war legend he said.

"Yes, the hero took a plane to the headquarters of the Increment army at sea. He defeated Increment army, killed Increment president Richardson, and persuaded scientist Dr. Golanling to destroy the evil government together. On a cruise ship fleeing the sea base, the hero witnessed the explosion of a nuclear bomb, and the destruction of mushroom clouds soared into the sky, destroying the sinful ambitious people with his inhuman army and his plan to massacre the entire race—"

"Gentlemen, ladies, do you know why that hero can do this miraculous achievement? He defeated the entire army alone and did things that many people could never do in their lifetime?"

"Uh...is it because he's amazing?" a young man replied.

"Yes. But not right. He is very powerful. On the one hand, on the other hand, because... the times need heroes, and heroes will always respond to the times! In human history, we have faced the crisis of complete destruction countless times, but we still tenaciously survive on the earth. This is because, whenever the world is on the verge of crisis, there will be a person, or a group of people, who shoulder the mission of saving the world, stand up bravely and declare war on evil and destruction! He will never disappoint us, because heroes are forged to shoulder responsibility and strength! He will not die, because justice will never die!!"

"I didn't expect you to come back. Is it because my control over the shelter has been so low, or are you so stupid that you think I won't kill you?"

The Superintendent sat on his backrest chair and looked at Adam in a gloomy manner.

After a few weeks of sight, Adam felt that he didn't seem to know the old man in front of him. In his impression, supervision was always the image of a majestic middle-aged man, with a low and powerful voice, his uniform always straight and clean, his eyes were bright, and he could scare the man so hard that he could not speak at first glance... But the old man in front of him had wrinkles on his face, his hair was half white, his hair was severely lost, his clothes were wrinkled, and he smelled alcohol... Is it because he was aging too fast, or has he lost his awe for him?

Adam stopped his random thoughts, and he walked up seriously, stood at the supervisor's table and said, "Mr. Supervisor, I think we can talk about... about my friends' thoughts this time..."

"Thinking? What thoughts? I need to listen to the thoughts of you kids who don't know the sufferings of the world? I am trying to protect you. The outside world is too dangerous, robbers, mutants, and ubiquitous radiation... These are all told by your father James! Only in this refuge can we leave a pure fire for mankind. The responsibilities we shoulder far exceed your narrow thinking imagination! Freedom? Rights? In the face of this great responsibility, these are nothing at all! I know what you are thinking, I am dictatorial, yes! I am indeed dictatorial! But this is because only dictatorship can accomplish this task! This is the mission of generations of supervisors! My father did this, my grandfather did this, and in the future, Yamata inherited my power, and she would do the same!!"

After a series of exciting long and exciting discussions, the old man gasped excitedly. He stroked his chest, took out a wine glass from the drawer, and poured himself a glass of whiskey.

Adam was speechless for a moment. He took two steps back and silently thought about the supervisor's words.

That's right, compared with people in the wilderness, people in the shelter are much happier, and living in the shelter does not have to consider the impact of radiation on the body or on genes... What the supervisor said is right, scientifically, is right. Adam received his father's rational thinking education since he was a child. He always habitually thought in the way of thinking in the way of scientists to understand the world. After some painful thinking, Adam painfully discovered that supervision was right.

"But, the power of freedom...they have the power to choose their own lives..." Adam said weakly.

"Freedom? Human Rights? Two ends of the scale, one end is the seeds and hopes of all mankind, and the other end is the so-called freedom and human rights. If you were the ones, what would you choose?" The supervisor sneered with a wine glass.

Adam left the supervisor's office in silence.
