But no matter how reluctant Bryce was, Lin Xi finally got the pass to the solitary room.
Compared to Bryce who was worried about Lin Xi, there were more people on this ship hoping that Lin Xi could dig out any valuable information from Shizuo Andeng.
The corridor to the solitary room was as dark and damp as before, reminiscent of a dungeon in a nineteenth-century castle. In order to save energy, even the lighting facilities were disabled on the way to the solitary room. It was dark here. The sound of human footsteps on the metal floor echoed loudly, and from the end of the corridor, nightmare-like whispers and cries came.
"It's the people in the solitary room. Their minds are not right."
The mercenary who led Lin Xi to the solitary room noticed Lin Xi's hesitation in his steps. He turned around and held a searchlight to illuminate his face, dyeing his lower jaw a pale blue-white color.
He explained with a wry smile at Lin Xi.
"Although I can understand that some people can't bear the pressure and eventually have a mental breakdown, but there are too many people who have been brought to the solitary room during this period. If this continues, I estimate that the solitary room on this floor will soon be It can’t be loaded anymore.”
As he spoke, he turned around and continued to lead Lin Xi forward in the dark corridor.
Finally, he stopped at the end of the corridor.
"Wow, wow, wow, I'm wrong Liz, I'm wrong, I didn't expect things to turn out like this... I don't understand... Oh my God, what did I do to you... But it doesn't matter, you don't want that fate. ... Maybe you will feel lucky..."
A beast-like howl came from the other side of the iron door. The irrational sound mixed with the darkness and dampness in the corridor and turned into something chilling...
Lin Xi and the mercenary looked at each other.
"Professor Ando is here." The mercenary said.
Then he used his biometrics to open the door of the confinement room.
"The doctor is immobilized. I don't think he will jump up and chew you into minced meat on the ground." The mercenary made a joke that was not funny (and that joke definitely came from John Bronson), and then He motioned Lin Xi to enter the confinement room, but he himself stood outside the confinement room with a weapon in hand. He didn't seem to intend to follow the normal rules and procedures and be in the same room with Lin Xi and Shizuo Ando.
Lin Xi wouldn't blame him for this. The mercenary hid it very well, but Lin Xi could still clearly smell his fear from behind the thin and tight cheeks.
But... what is he afraid of
Lin Xi thought this, and then he stepped directly into the confinement room.
Thank God, the lights were not turned off in order to save energy. Everything here was bright, from the ceiling to the floor, every corner was illuminated by the bright light.
In this room, Dr. Ando, who was tightly trapped on a small bed with plastic shackles, became particularly conspicuous.
He didn't look as bad as Lin Xi thought, and he was even a little better than some ordinary crew members who overdosed on food bags. He was just as thin and pale as ever (but who on board the Helios wasn't like that now?).
Lin Xi took the only chair in the closed room and sat down in a safe position.
Shizuo Ando has become quiet since he heard Lin Xi's voice outside the door. At this moment, he is staring at the surveillance camera of the solitary room with his bloodshot eyes wide open.
But his eyes seemed to be looking far beyond the camera.
"Dr. Lin Xi..."
After a brief silence, it was difficult to hear the madness in the first words Shizuo Andeng said.
"Hello, Professor Ando."
Lin Xi replied dryly.
He lowered his voice very low, and he had already entered the solitary room, but Ando looked like he was taken aback after hearing his response.
"Ah ah ah, here you are - the mother of insects - the king of alien species -"
Professor Ando struggled on the bed. His body was incredibly soft. Lin Xi was shocked to see that his shoulder was twisting to one side as if it was dislocated, while Professor Ando himself maintained that terrifying posture, straight Goudi pointed at Lin Xi.
"I made a mistake, Doctor, a very serious mistake."
Dr. Ando muttered.
"It's not Liz's fault...those are my children..."
he continued.
Lin Xi turned around and saw the mercenary at the door looking at the two of them curiously.
"Please have your condolences, Professor Ando."
Lin Xi didn't know what to say, he could only say this to the madman in front of him.
"No, no, no, it's not too bad. I know you all think I'm crazy. Well, maybe I am, but as I lie here, I realize that maybe I didn't do anything wrong..."
Dr. Ando spoke in a strange accent, his voice hoarse and sharp, as if nails were being driven across a blackboard.
"The problem is the ground milk."
What he said was very messy, and there was almost no logic between it and before. But with these words, Lin Xi's whole body suddenly froze.
The mercenary's gaze came from behind, and he was sure that man must also be listening attentively to the conversation between him and Ando.
He stared at Professor Ando suspiciously, trying to find a hint of madness in his eyes, but strangely, Shizuo Ando looked extremely calm at this moment.
"Killing Liz and the children, I didn't do anything wrong, because even if I didn't kill them, they would still turn into that disgusting thing in the end... those bugs... all those who have taken the earth milk There is no escape, we are thieves, we are robbers, we steal food that does not belong to us, so in the end, we pay the price.”
Dr. Ando's voice contained a strange accent, which suddenly sounded very similar to the Sunu people's intonation.
"Dr. Ando... the price? What is the price?"
Lin Xi originally wanted to come to Shizuo Ando to ask about the star butterfly's pupation, but after hearing what Dr. Ando said, his attention was completely attracted.
But the sobriety in Dr. Ando's eyes has now gradually dissipated. It was as if he had not heard Lin Xi's question at all. He was talking to himself, and his pupils gradually lost focus: "Either death or death." Just become those low-level bugs, they don't like waste, they will create more low-level puppets in waste and food for you and your children to drive... This is bad, Dr. Lin Xi, you are a good person, But I couldn't live with this, I couldn't watch my wife and my children turn into that disgusting thing, and when I cut open Liz's body and saw those children I knew I didn't do it. wrong… "
"Dr. Ando?"
Lin Xi frowned.
"Sorry, I don't understand what you are talking about... You mentioned before that you wanted to see me..."
"Oh, yes, I want to see you, of course I want to see you, I need to tell you something-" Dr. Ando chuckled, "You should die, Dr. Lin Xi, your awakening makes everything It's over... Those Sunu people have lived peacefully on Sunu planet for so many years. They have worked hard to survive, but the moment you start to wake up, everything changes... People on the entire planet feel it. That kind of mutation, the change that started from the depths of their bodies... And I'm sure those people on earth who have taken earth milk must also feel it... We are all changing, Dr. Lin Xi, we are changing for you. Adult worm, your children will become our kings, and we... we will lose everything we have... "
As he spoke, Dr. Ando suddenly let out an extremely painful sob.
"In the tens of millions of years before you woke up, we had human bodies, we had our own wisdom, we had civilization... But now everything will disappear - we will be reborn as insects and stay in the dark from now on. In the mud and corpses of the sun, there will be nothing else in our minds, only you... your children... We are your slaves and your food... This is really too bad, Dr. Lin Xi, I I beg you, commit suicide, for the happiness of all of us. It may take another few million years for the next egg of the alien mother to wake up. By that time, humans may have progressed to the point where they can escape this fate. But before that, we need your death—"
"Dr. Ando, I am just an ordinary earthling. You should know this. We also worked together in college. You have seen my file. I went through what I went through when I was selected to join the Helios mission team. After a long period of physical testing, there was nothing abnormal about me.”
Lin Xi had to try hard to remind Ando.
He could feel the piercing gaze of the mercenary beside him, which made him particularly uncomfortable. Moreover, he could somewhat understand why Bryce objected to him coming to see Shizuo Ando.
Once this man's crazy words got out, the crazy messages on the ship would only get worse.
"...I came to see you just to ask about Star Butterfly."
Lin Xiqiang looked at Ando energetically.
"I hatched the star butterfly, and it has now pupated. I have read your notes before, but you didn't mention this at all in the notes-"
"That's not Star Butterfly."
Shizuo Ando interrupted Lin Xi directly.
Because this answer was so ridiculous, Lin Xi didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Lin Xi noticed that even in such a crazy situation, Shizuo Ando still looked nervous and fearful when mentioning Star Butterfly.
"I made a mistake, Dr. Lin Xi, I should have reminded you earlier."
Shizuo Ando even began to whisper to Lin Xi seriously.
"The thing we found... is not a star butterfly egg at all... it is your king insect... your most beloved child... it will kill everyone here for you..."
The more Shizuo Ando said, the more outrageous he became, and Lin Xi's brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
He could feel that Ando really believed what he said, which made him feel ridiculous - but at the same time, Lin Xi felt a chill on his back, as if someone had directly pulled out his spine and immersed it in ice water.
He looked at his personal terminal, then let out a long sigh. He stood up and planned to leave.
However, when looking towards the door, Lin Xi couldn't help but be slightly startled.
The mercenary who was supposed to stay there disappeared at some point.
Outside the open confinement there was only chaos and darkness.
In a daze, Lin Xi even had the illusion that the entire Helios spacecraft had lost power. It was empty and pitch black, and the only light was the confinement room where Lin Xi and the crazy Professor Ando were.
"Dr. Lin Xi... you should go to hell..."
Ando was still chattering behind him.
"For the sake of everyone, for the sake of mankind, you should commit suicide. You should also kill the king insect that was hatched by mistake. It will do even more terrible things in order to monopolize your love-"
When Ando mentioned killing "No. 1" again and again, a shallow anger slowly spread in Lin Xi's heart.
"Shut up—Dr. Ando, you're just—you're just crazy."
Lin Xi whispered unbearably.
He felt flustered and his head ached.
"I don't know if you are just imagining it, or... you heard John Bronson's nonsense like others, but I am just an ordinary human being, and I don't have the magic to turn people into bugs. , of course, considering that we are still on a sterile planet and I can't have any children, everything you say is just nonsense and nonsense-"
Lin Xi yelled at Ando while trying hard to look outside the door, trying to find the mercenary.
The man was clearly behind him before, but now he disappeared like smoke.
This matter, at this moment, seems almost more disturbing than Shizuo Ande's strange crazy talk.
"No... I'm not crazy... Dr. Lin Xi... I'm not..."
Ando rolled around in pain on the bed, his body convulsing slightly, as if he was enduring severe torture.
"For God's sake-"
Lin Xi looked at Ando at a loss.
"Professor, what's wrong with you?"
He was worried that Ando would bite off his tongue during the spasm, so he couldn't help but take two more steps towards Ando's bed.
It was at this moment that Ando's body suddenly trembled heavily, and then calmed down.
The muscles on his face relaxed little by little, and his closed eyes slowly opened.
Lin Xi saw a pair of unfathomable eyes, like a bottomless abyss, or like a black hole that could suck people into eternity.
There is no madness, no fear, no breath of humanness, but these are a pair of human eyes.
After Lin Xi met Professor Ando's eyes at this moment, his muscles all over his body tensed to the extreme. He suddenly jumped back several steps to distance himself from Shizuo Ando, and his heart was beating so hard that it was about to break because of fear. Come out of your chest.
He didn't know what was wrong with him, but he knew that he was scared to death after seeing Shizuo Ando at this moment.
"Dr. Lin Xi, what you heard is not crazy fantasy, but facts."
"Shizuo Ando" stared at her without blinking.
"I have been trying to save the people on your ship. I have been transmitting signals. Unfortunately, only a few people can understand what I mean..."
"You? Who are you?"
Lin Xi asked with his back pressed against the wall.
He suspected that this was Shizuo Ando's second personality, or some ancient ghost. Of course, it was more likely that he himself was completely crazy.
Otherwise, why would he talk to such a consciousness that is wearing the skin of Shizuo Ando, but is obviously not Ando
"I'm the captain of the Providence, I'm—"
"Dr. Lin-Lin Xi-"
"Dr. Ando" was interrupted by a stammering voice.
Lin Xi suddenly turned his head and found that the mercenary who had disappeared had returned to the door at some point. However, his face was gray and there was no color even on his lips, as if he had been seriously frightened by something. .
At this moment, he was holding a weapon and standing blankly at the door staring at Lin Xi and Shizuo Ando.
"boom-"
Almost at the same time that Ando was interrupted by him, the body of this man who suddenly behaved strangely softened and fell heavily back onto the hard and narrow bed in the solitary room like a corpse.
Everything happened in such a short time that Lin Xi didn't react at all.
"Professor Ando? What's wrong with you-"
He first rushed over and checked Shizuo Ando's pulse, only to find that Ando seemed to have just gone into shock.
Lin Xi's body softened and she almost fell to her knees.
"Dr. Ando is unconscious. We need to get the medical technician down."
Then Lin Xi turned his head and looked at the mercenary.
"Where did you go just now?!"
The mercenary's expression was dull and his eyes were dull.
"I... I... went out... to patrol..."
Lin Xi suspected that Professor Ando's previous crazy words had affected the mercenary. He seemed extremely unnatural when facing Lin Xi, and even his words became stammering.
"Damn-"
Seeing his unresponsive look, Lin Xi turned her head irritably.
His mind was in chaos, and he had no time to pay attention to such a strange mercenary.
While using the communicator to notify the medical officer to come down and treat the unconscious Professor Ando, Lin Xi stood beside the small, narrow bed in confusion.
He kept staring at Shizuo Ando's face.
The scene that happened before made Lin Xi feel weird and ridiculous.
Captain of the Providence
I have to say that it was this identity that made Lin Xi suddenly feel ridiculous for his previous seriousness.
The ghost from more than three hundred years ago now floats into the body of a mad scientist, forcing him to kill his wife and urge Lin Xi to die, lest all humans turn into bugs because of Lin Xi
This kind of absurd thing is too exaggerated even for writing absurd novels.
The author has something to say: I went to the hospital today...
The next chapter is still manual anti-theft! ! !

I was too tired to write the decryption, so this chapter should be revised again.
