Ch7 - Cardiovascular Ward 02

When Yue Xingwen and Liu Zhaoqing went out together, the people from the ward next door also poked their heads out the door sneakily. Their expressions looked nervous and their ages were about 20 years old, looking like an innocent university student who had been thrown into the cardiovascular ward by the library system.

The doctors and nurses were busy. The ‘university wardmate’ were walking around the corridors in pairs with their hospital gowns. They went through the cardiovascular ward area from the beginning to the end with tacit understanding to find out the environment of the ward first before making a discussion. 

Yue Xingwen tore off a blank piece of paper from the end of the dictionary and found a pen to draw the map on the white paper. Anyway, his dictionary had the self-repair ability, tearing out a few sheets of paper and re-summoning it to restore again.

The cardiovascular ward was a large area with a ‘回’ corridor structure.

 

 

The wards were on the left and right. Among them, ward no. 1 and no. 2 were the VIP wards with only one bed that was located in the lower left and right corner respectively. The remaining wards had 8 rooms on each side, with a uniform layout, each with 3 beds and a bathroom. The bed distribution throughout the ward was 24 beds on the left corridor and 24 beds on the right corridor, plus 2 VIPS in the corner, for a total of 50 beds.

Directly above the ‘回’ structure was the doctor’s work area, including the doctor’s office, the doctors on duty room, the conference room, and a space for water dispenser. The lower area was the main entrance to the cardiovascular ward, which was locked at this time. There was a sign hanging on the door that read ‘Family’s visit hours: 3pm – 5pm’. Next to the main entrance was the nurses’ station, pharmacy, and treatment room. There was a lightboard that contained a brief information about all the patients in the ward at the nurses’ station, such as ‘Bed no. 17 – Yue Xingwen – 20 years old male’. 

All 50 beds were occupied by patients. Yue Xingwen’s eyes swept over at the board and quickly wrote down the key information on the paper. He found that there was a familiar name on bed no. 48: Ke Shaobin.

 

Yue Xingwen was stunned. He was actually in the same course with Ke Shaobin from the Computer Department? He planned to find this schoolmate later.

The majority of patients on the cardiovascular ward were elderly.

However, there were some beds that were occupied by young people in their 20s, including bed no. 3 and no 4, bed no. 16 and no 17, bed no. 25 and no 26 in the left corridor; Bed no. 34 and no. 35, bed no. 48 and no. 49 in the right corridor. There were exactly ten people, and they were obviously university students like Yue Xingwen and Liu Zhaoqing.

 

In other words, the ten classmates were scattered in pairs to five wards, and their wards were far apart. It would be a hassle to exchange news at the first time.

Yue Xingwen checked the map and his classmates’ information once more, and then headed towards the rest area in the upper left corner with Liu Zhaoqing.

There were two rows of seats in the rest area, and there was no one at this time. After Yue Xingwen and Liu Zhaoqing sat down there, some young people wearing hospital gowns turned around the entire ward and walked slowly towards the rest area as well.

 

Gradually, eight people, four men and four women gathered in the rest area. 

They were young univeristy students, but they were pale because of heart disease. There was a skinny male student who frowned and pressed hard on his chest, it was obvious that his heart was starting to act up again.

At first, everyone sat in silence and did not speak.

The silence was broken when a skinny female student, about 155cm tall with a ponytail suddenly spoke up, “Excuse me, are you all from Binjiang Normal University? My name is Liu Xiaoxiao from bed no. 4, I’m a second-year student majoring in preschool education.”

When those words were spoken, the people around them looked different. 

The male student with a few pimples on his face sitting across from her immediately said, “I’m not from Normal University. My name is Zou Yuhang from bed no. 25, I’m a fourth year student at Kyoto University majoring in astrophysics.” This male student’s name was ‘Yuhang’ and he was studying astrophysics. His parents were quite far-sighted in naming him.

A female student with beautiful curly hair looked at him after hearing his words and said, “Hello senior brother, I’m also from Kyoto University, majoring in telecommunication engineering, my name is Qu Weiwei, third year student. I’m from bed no. 3.”

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

The two schoolmates exchanged a complicated look.

“Xingzhou University, a fourth year student majoring in materials chemistry, from bed no. 24.” This skinny male student’s heart seemed to feel much better as he withdrew his hand that was pressed against his chest. He looked around uneasily, “Any schoolmate?” 

“Zs cjwf lr Hlc Oe, P’w ogbw Rjcsjcu Aljbabcu Fclnfgrlas wjpbglcu lc ufbugjqtlmji qijcclcu.” Ktf rtbga-tjlgfv ofwjif raevfca ys atf rlvf rjlv mjiwis.

Since Yue Xingwen and Liu Zhaoqing had come to ask for information, they naturally went along with the flow and made a simple self-introduction. The nurses’ station had information on all the patients in the ward, and there was no need for them to hide their names and beds’ number.

Everyone introduced themselves first, and looked at each other in dismay. 

A moment later, Zou Yuhang from the Physic Department could not help but swearing, “Fuck! I thought our school was the only one that was unlucky! Our library suddenly mutated! So, there are still other schools ah?”

The course ranking of <Escape From the Laboratory> that Yue Xingwen had seen was Hua’an University’s scoreboard, which was full of his schoolmates. At that time, he also thought it was just their school library that had the issue, but now it seemed that the library was pulling people from universities across the country?

These students came from all over the country, Binjiang Normal University, Nanyang Jiaotong University, Kyoto University, and so on, all separated by several provinces from the university where Yue Xingwen was. How could the libraries of the nation’s universities mutate collectively overnight? Who had such great power?

The students on scene clearly thought of this question as well. 

Liu Xiaoxiao from Normal University continued to ask in a low voice, “Did everyone go to the library at night and then couldn’t get out?”

Everyone sighed. “Yeah, I just passed by the library and went in to borrow a book.”

“I went to the library to self-study for the final exam, but I was too sleepy and accidentally hit a ton and woke up, but I couldn’t get out.”

“I was at the library to return the book…” 

Liu Xiaoxiao bit her pale lips and then said, “There hadn’t been any discussion about this at our school, but I saw the school’s scoreboard after I passed my first course and noticed that a lot of my schoolmates were being pulled in, is that the same for everyone?”

Everyone nodded again.

Zou Yuhang started to curse again. “I went to the library every fucking day to search for materials, and I barely got halfway through my thesis, and I ended up in this fucking place, it’s so fuck up!” This senior brother from the Physic Department had a very short temper. Perhaps, several pimples on his face were caused by the recent irregular schedule and staying up late to write his thesis?

The male student from the Chemistry Department said bitterly, “I’m preparing for my fourth-year graduation exam and I’ll be taking <Organic Chemistry> exam tomorrow. I had failed this course before and retook it, if I fail it again I won’t be able to graduate.” 

Qin Lu from the Geography Department frowned. “I had a quarrel with my girl friends and wanted to go to the library for some quiet time, but I was pulled into this strange place.”

Yue Xingwen swept his gaze over everyone and said in a relaxed tone, “I had written my thesis in the library for a month and had a hard time writing it, I hadn’t submitted it to the teacher yet. I left my new mobile phone I just bought in the library, and went back to find it before I was pulled here.”

Everyone: “……”

Is it a competition for misery now? 

Liu Zhaoqing shook his head and sighed. “*sigh*, we’re all unlucky ah.”

Yue Xingwen’s mentality was very good, he changed the topic and began to analyze. “The library actually pulls people from universities across the country. With so many schools and so many students missing at the same time, it would be a big news that would have rocked the whole country, so why wasn’t there any news? There was no discussion about this in our school either. Are students who enter the library forgotten by the real world?”

 

Chills ran down on their backs. They always felt like a guinea pig who had been chosen by the devil for experimentation, and beyond their perception, there seemed to be some mysterious force controlling it all.

Liu Xiaoxiao replied in a low voice, “I’m a student from Normal University, and I don’t know much about this. So, it’s not like some highly intelligent alien creatures sucked us into their fourth-dimensional space, right?” 

Zou Yuhang’s eyebrows wrinkled and said in a deep voice, “In all the years of human exploration of the universe, no highly intelligent alien creature has even been found, so it shouldn’t be an alien invasion. Moreover, alien civilizations and Earth civilizations can’t be completely equal. The library system has all of our majors’ resource books, and if we must find an explanation, I would prefer—— it’s still our fucking Earthlings doing!”

Everyone: “…”

The words from this grumpy astrophysics brother were very reasonable. What aliens knew the characteristics of each major at school, and also got four walls of resource books for everyone to exchange? If the aliens had that kind of free time, why did they not just blow up the Earth?

Liu Xiaoxiao, who put forward this reasoning, blushed. “I just said it casually. I have watched too many science fiction movies.” 

Yue Xingwen calmly said, “No matter what the reason is, since everyone has come to the library, it’s better to try to clear the level according to the rules. We can leave the library after obtaining 100 credits—— maybe only after we go out can we understand the reasons for this library’s existence, and the purpose for pulling us in.”

The male student was handsome, and he spoke in a clear, nice voice. His eyes looked calm and made the other people want to hear more from him.

Everyone nodded in agreement. “That’s right, we’re all here, so let’s figure out how to get out first.”

“Yes, it is useless to dwell on how we got in, this kind of supernatural event is too difficult to explain.” 

“After we leave here, we’ll definitely find out what this shitty library really is!”

However, how much would a bunch of preschool education, astrophysics, telecommunication engineering, geographical planning, materials chemistry, and Chinese understand about cardiovascular disease? Fortunately, there were two medical students.

Everyone turned their eyes to the two students from the Medicine Department, as if to say: We’re counting on you.

The female student from the Medicine Department smiled bitterly and waved her hand. “Don’t look at me. I’m not studying clinical, but studying anesthesiology, I can only anesthetize the specified target. I passed the <Escape From the Laboratory> by anesthetizing the monkeys. I can’t really help with this cardiovascular course.” She looked at Liu Zhaoqing next to her for help. “Fortunately, there is a postgraduate brother in clinical major, do you have any suggestions?” 

Liu Zhaoqing spread his hands, looking helpless. “I’m in the orthopedics, and my research direction is bone tumor. In the medical community ‘difference in profession makes it feel worlds apart’, and I don’t specialize in cardiovascular disease. Besides, this library doesn’t play cards according to common sense at all, and who knows what kind of sudden occurrence it will toss out. For example, the virus that caused animal mutations in the last course of <Escape From the Laboratory>. I have studied medicine for so many years, and I’ve never heard of it. It is obviously made up by the library.”

Everyone: “……”

Silence once again fell around the room.

After they hardly had a clinical student, but it turned out the postgraduate brother was studying orthopedics. What should they do? 

Yue Xingwen lowered his head and pondered for a moment before saying, “This exam requires us to survive for 5 days, and also gives us a collective heart disease. There may be a lot of unexpected events that stimulate our emotions in the future. No matter what happens, don’t get too excited. We should also be a little more careful with our meals and such in general, I wish everyone good luck.”

Everyone sighed. “This is the only choice we have.”

 

Yue Xingwen remained calm and collected and changed the topic to inquire about the examination in the first course. “How did everyone pass the first Faculty of Medicine’s course? I used the dictionary of the Chinese Department to knock the mutants unconscious.”

Zou Yuhang: “I drew out the magnet from the Physics Department , and the two poles of the magnet can be attached to the designated location at will to suck the monkeys away, so the first course was quite easy to pass.” 

Liu Xiaoxiao said, “I got the class’ lecture notes, so I walked while giving lectures to the monkeys, letting them listen to the lessons and making them stand for a few seconds as punishment.”

Everyone: “……”

The female student majoring in education was awesome, she could also teach a lesson to the crazy monkeys?

The female student from the telecommunication engineering coughed softly and said, “I put a 5G signal tower, and the monkeys ran to climb it. But, I dodged a bit in the final boss and took a few injuries, so my score isn’t high.” 

Qin Lu from the geographical planning major said calmly, “I divided the laboratory into the five major tectonic plates of the Earth, and used the plate movement to move them so far away that they couldn’t catch up with me.”

The male student from Chemistry Department said, “I directly splashed them with concentrated sulfuric acid…”

The student around gave him thumbs up. “It’s so ruthless ah!”

Everyone was like ‘You look at me, I look at you’, and their feelings were quite complicated. 

Every exam in school would have an extremely quiet examination room. Once the university students were caught cheating on exams, they would be disqualified from being awarded a degree, and it meant that they would be studying for nothing for their four years in universities. The students could only answer questions on their own, not daring to talk to anyone at all.

However, since they entered the library, the way they took the exam had become extremely thrilling and exciting. Not to mention the crazy escape of a single person examination room, but in the multiple people examination rooms, they could also communicate with each other to chat and discuss. In the future, when they reach the research group stage, the students from all majors might also have to team up to take the exams together and work together to overcome difficulties.

Although these people came from different universities around the country, it was great to see so many students racking their brains to clear the course, and using their majors’ specialty to overcome the problem…

Yue Xingwen then felt he wasn’t particularly unlucky? 

These few students just now impressed Yue Xingwen, the one who took a magnet to suck the monkeys, the one who threw acid, the one who gave anesthesia, the one who put a signal tower, the one who directly divided the laboratory, and even the one from the normal university who could teach the monkeys a lesson?

It was really ‘one is better than the others’.

Yue Xingwen believed that the students’ faith to leave the library was extremely firm.

They had to survive for 5 days. Yue Xingwen wished that all the students in this examination room could survive smoothly.
