Chapter 207: Is She Human Or Ghost?

[Host, you have seven days remaining until your revival and awakening. Basic physical repairs are 80% complete. Starting tomorrow at noon, your heart will resume beating.]

[At that time, you can freely transfer your consciousness back to your original body, but you will not be able to move or awaken from the vegetative state, and can only hear and perceive what is happening around you.]

[Current body status: feigned death]

[Entering next state: moderate weakness]

[Time remaining until awakening: 7 days, 12 hours]

Time flashed by, and it was already February.

The end of winter approached, and new shoots stubbornly emerged from the snow, foreshadowing the approach of the Lunar New Year.

Chi Xiaocheng knew that she was about to be revived, and she looked forward to seeing her Taotao after her revival.

To feel her breath, her warmth, her concern and care for her.

But what she hadn't expected before was that the method of revival was to rely on orange cells to heal the body, and even resuscitate the heart that had already stopped.

This outcome has its pros and cons.

The downside, of course, was Su Tao's extremely surprised, even incredulous, expression when she "came back to life."

Chi Xiaocheng had imagined this scene more than once: Su Tao becoming increasingly lonely and desolate in the days without her, gradually becoming numb to life, occasionally coming to the hospital to take a look at her corpse, reminiscing about the past.

Then regretting why she hadn't done this at that time, hadn't made the right choice.

After being overwhelmed by pain and torment, one day she dragged her tired body back to the hospital.

Only to see her sitting quietly and obediently on the hospital bed.

Covered with white sheets, a small hospital gown on her body, and beneath her auburn hair, a sweet smile of anticipation.

Then saying to her.

--Taotao, welcome home.

Although it was a hospital.

But where I am, is your home.

...

However, this was just a vision of the future that Chi Xiaocheng had before her feigned death.

It might even be a different timeline.

But in this timeline, her heart softened, and Su Tao's resilience was also very strong.

Chi Xiaocheng couldn't bear to watch Su Tao be overwhelmed by pressure, then gradually fall into pain, and finally become numb, collapse, and even contemplate ending her life.

She had experienced this feeling of being abandoned, and it was very unpleasant.

So she gave the other party a dream, gave her hope, and led her forward.

Su Tao's resilience wasn't overwhelmed by the pressure either. In the days without her, she took strong steps forward, holding her head up, not wanting her tears to fall to the ground.

Now, Chi Xiaocheng was different from before.

Letting Taotao know that she would be revived sooner or later might be a good thing.

She would constantly anticipate it, and might even make wishes to the illusory gods, and spend more time on her revitalized self.

When the sense of anticipation is maxed out, what will happen at the moment it is disappointed?

Cherishing only after losing.

She understood, but she didn't understand enough.

If your possessiveness towards me isn't overflowing, wouldn't you still come into contact with other people?

She was even more eager to wake up.

Chi Xiaocheng said to the system, "After my heart starts beating tomorrow at noon, transfer my consciousness over."

[Okay]

A night passed quickly.

The good news was that Da Wang became much more obedient after being able to communicate simply.

Although he would still occasionally pick her up and run around.

But at noon on the second day, before Chi Xiaocheng's heart had even recovered, a small accident brought her into her body ahead of schedule.

Her consciousness expanded outwards, and she could clearly hear the faint "beeping" sounds from the various instruments on her body.

But what was even more noticeable than these sounds was the conversation gradually coming from outside the door.

"Miss Su Tao, don't worry, I, Chu Lingfeng, have seen all kinds of situations. With my Thirteen Supreme Acupuncture Techniques, I've been praised by countless people!"

"No matter what kind of disease, no matter how serious the injury, as long as the person isn't dead, I can bring them back!"

Along with that somewhat boastful and arrogant voice, Chi Xiaocheng heard another sweet and moving voice, "Even with feigned death?"

"Feigned death is just a symptom, not actual death, so of course there's no problem."

"That's great. If Divine Doctor Chu can wake Xiaocheng up, I will definitely have Dongfang Yang thank you properly. At that time, he can recommend you to the higher authorities, and wouldn't there be a solution to the cancer and AIDS that have plagued us for many years!"

"Uh...why don't we take a look at your friend's situation first."

He lightly and carefully avoided the topic.

Then Su Tao pushed open the half-closed door.

Wasn't it Su Tao and Chu Lingfeng who came in?

Chi Xiaocheng was now "hiding" in her body, listening to the conversation between the two, and she was a little unhappy.

She had only not paid attention for one night and one morning.

Su Tao actually went to find this Chu Lingfeng again!

Whether it was the original story or the real him now, this guy was bad inside and out, so why would she still get close to him?

Taotao is not obedient, Chengcheng is not happy.

But she couldn't do anything now, so she listened to Chu Lingfeng bragging there.

Then, under Su Tao's expectant gaze and Professor Su's observing and thinking, Chu Lingfeng walked to the head of the bed.

His gaze fell on Chi Xiaocheng's face.

He paused for two seconds.

"What the--!"

Chu Lingfeng hurriedly took a step back, his hand flailing to the side, almost tripping over the wire of an instrument.

Su Tao and Professor Su turned their heads at the same time, "What's wrong?"

Chu Lingfeng swallowed with fear and horror, "Miss Su Tao, is this person...really your friend?"

"Yes."

"But didn't you say that she had an accident and feigned death a month ago?"

This person was clearly the assassin he had seen at the birthday banquet!

Even though she was wearing a hood, and he only caught a glimpse of this little girl's face when half of his ear was cut off.

But he would never forget that pair of cat-like pupils, and that small face that combined cuteness and coldness.

But now you're telling me that she died a month ago?

Then what did I see that night?

A ghost?

Chu Lingfeng hurriedly looked at Professor Su, "Doctor, can I see her various reports?"

His ungraceful appearance made Professor Su frown.

But considering Dongfang Yang's instructions, she nodded.

She took out some reports from the drawer, "I can only show you some ordinary reports."

She wouldn't hand over the in-depth information about the cells and Chi Xiaocheng's physical condition.

But this was enough for Chu Lingfeng to understand.

He couldn't wait to look at the time.

"Starting a month ago...gunshot wound...heart stopped beating but body in good condition...preliminarily identified as shock-induced feigned death...not yet awakened..."

Chu Lingfeng hurriedly looked at the EKG next to him again, a straight line.

If this person had really been lying here for a month, or had died, then at the birthday banquet...

His lips were a little dry, and he turned his head stiffly, "Miss Su Tao, does this girl have a twin sister or younger sister?"

Su Tao was surprised by Chu Lingfeng's reaction, "Divine Doctor Chu, Xiaocheng and I have grown up together since we were little. What does this have to do with her condition?"

Now, Chu Lingfeng was even more afraid to step forward.

He wasn't sure if what he had encountered was a ghost or something else.

Was the hallucination he had last time really just a hallucination?

And just then, the EKG next to him made a "beep" sound.

The original straight line began to have subtle ripples.

Su Tao (more pictures in the book circle, oh)
