Chapter 10 She may not be the best candidate
Author: Nanfengyu
The goose was hit so hard that it almost died on the spot. Mi He grabbed the goose by its neck and walked heavily to the kitchen.
It's not that she couldn't bear to kill the goose. She had the important task of continuing the race, so all her intolerance and guilt were unnecessary.
Mi He was afraid that she would cry uncontrollably while killing the goose.
Now it is basically certain that Wei Zhaolin is doubting her. Regardless of whether the other party suspects that she is from the Omega planet, it is certain that she is not human.
At least in Wei Zhaolin's opinion, she shouldn't be a normal person.
Mi He put the goose's neck on the edge of the pool, placed a bowl in the pool, and prepared to slit the goose's throat and bleed it.
She held up a kitchen knife in one hand and the goose's head in the other, and slashed across it absentmindedly.
The kitchen knife hit Mi He's left hand.
The hand was fine, but the knife was broken.
Mi He: "..."
The more you panic, the more mistakes you make, and it’s her who’s talking about it.
Mi He took a deep breath and quickly broke the blade a few times. The carbon steel kitchen knife fell into her hand and was as crisp as a biscuit, and was broken into a mess within two strokes.
Before Wei Zhaolin noticed it, she stuffed the broken kitchen knife into the big pocket on the front of her apron, turned around and rubbed her eyes: "I'm a little scared, can you go wash your face and calm down first?"
Wei Zhaolin looked at her slightly red eyes and curled the corners of his lips: "Go ahead."
Mi He rushed into the bathroom with his head lowered, and as soon as he entered, he rushed the kitchen knife that had been 'broken into pieces' into the sewer.
This won't work.
She couldn't hold on even before she actually took action. If the knife really fell with her hand and blood splattered three feet, Mi He could guarantee that she would be able to restrain her emotions.
After thinking for a moment, she walked to the bathroom mirror and spoke word by word to herself in the mirror.
"In the next eight hours, nothing will affect my mood. I won't cry, I won't be sad, and I won't let emotion become the key to my behavior."
Mi He's voice was very soft, almost silent, but as she spoke, Mi He's eyes in the mirror became calmer and calmer, and all the fragility and intolerance were restrained the moment the words fell.
She used her mental power to forcefully hypnotize herself.
This is a last resort method, and it is also a method developed by the Omega people in order to go to the battlefield and protect their homeland.
However, this method has serious side effects. Mi He, who has double S mental strength, can only persist for eight hours at most. What is even more difficult to bear is the emotional counterattack after the hypnosis fails.
In the past, countless Omega warriors did not die on the battlefield, but died due to this kind of emotional counterattack.
The moment the hypnosis ends, the emotions that were suppressed during the hypnosis will surge hundreds of times, and every detail will be infinitely magnified, becoming a form of torture for the Omega people.
The moment Mi He hypnotized herself, she was even prepared to have her spirit collapse. In other words, from the day she accepted the mission, she was prepared to die for the clan.
Mi He pushed open the bathroom door and smiled at Wei Zhaolin who was waiting outside: "It's almost nine o'clock, I have to move quickly, otherwise I'm afraid I won't have time to finish processing the ingredients before the chef comes."
There was more than one knife in the kitchen, so Mi He picked a handy one, grabbed the goose's neck with one hand, and quickly cut the goose's throat with the knife in the other.
Put the goose's head on the edge of the pool, and the blood fell drop by drop into the stainless steel bowl connected below.
"Do you need to keep the blood? You can make a stewed goose blood."
Wei Zhaolin sat in a wheelchair and watched her movements quietly, his brows gradually tightening.
"Are you not afraid anymore?"
Mi He used the handle of the knife to knock out the half-meter-long dragon fish. The tip of the knife picked up the gill cover and pulled out the gills with a hook of his finger.
"After taking action, there seems to be nothing to be afraid of." She tilted her head and asked, "Do you need to fillet the fish?"
Wei Zhaolin said nothing, his eyes showing slight surprise and confusion.
Mi He didn't ask any questions and quickly started to deal with the ducklings and rabbits.
The kitchen was overflowing with fishy smell, the smell of fish and blood mixed together, the smell was terrible.
But Mi He's expression was always calm, and he even had time to chat with Wei Zhaolin with a smile.
Wei Zhaolin remained silent, his probing gaze slowly turning into a dull one.
He turned the wheelchair and left the kitchen: "You are busy, I will take a rest."
"Yeah." Mi He blinked, and the action of skinning the rabbit became much gentler.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the two chefs arrived on time.
Mi He had already processed all the ingredients, so he simply stayed in the kitchen to do some work.
Around 11:30, all the dishes were finished and the invited guests arrived.
The guests and hosts had a great time during the meal. Mi He smiled and greeted everyone throughout the meal. He spoke and behaved like a hostess. During the meal, he even praised the chef's skills several times and the delicious goose meat.
I don't know if it was her illusion, but after hypnotizing herself, Mi He felt that Wei Zhaolin paid much less attention to her.
After the banquet, Mi He packed her things and prepared to leave. There were less than three hours before the end of the hypnosis, so she had to find a way to find a quiet and uninhabited place to survive the high-risk stage of emotional counterattack.
"I'm going back and will see you tomorrow." Mi He thoughtfully helped Wei Zhaolin pour a cup of hot water and put it at hand.
There are nurses stationed outside this ward 24 hours a day. In case of emergency, all you have to do is ring the bell, so Mi He has nothing to say and will leave after saying hello.
"Mi He." Wei Zhaolin stopped her, "Don't you need to take away the remaining ingredients in the kitchen?"
The remaining food in his mouth refers to rabbit skin, fish scales, goose feathers and the like.
Mi He's heart skipped a beat and he pretended to question: "Didn't the chef take away the garbage when he left?"
"Garbage?" Wei Zhaolin narrowed his eyes, "I thought you would rather call them corpses or wreckage."
Mi He clenched his palms: "Why do you think so?"
"As far as I know, you held a funeral for a rabbit not long ago." Wei Zhaolin's eyes were full of estimation, "Didn't you also say at that time that all lives are equal and worthy of respect?"
I see!
Mi He suddenly realized.
Finally I knew why Wei Zhaolin would use this method to test her.
"So you did it on purpose today? You knew that I had held a funeral for the rabbit, but you still asked me to handle these ingredients?" Mi He raked his head, "Why did you do this? Do you want to embarrass me?"
Wei Zhaolin lowered his eyelashes and said nothing.
"Actually, you misunderstood." Mi He smiled, "I held the funeral for Rabbit not out of pity. I just wanted to cause some trouble for my father and make him embarrassed in front of everyone."
As she explained, the last trace of interest in Wei Zhaolin's eyes disappeared. He picked up the "A Brief History of Humanity" again and dismissed the guest without raising his head.
"You can go, you don't have to come tomorrow."
Shortly after Mi He left, Wei Zhaolin's cell phone rang. The call was from Wei Biechuan.
"Zhaolin, your mother and I want to hold an engagement party for you and Mi He after you are discharged from the hospital. See which friends you want to invite over there..."
"No need to do it." Wei Zhaolin interrupted him, "I need to think about the marriage again."
Weibiechuan was stunned: "Why? Didn't you promise it well before?"
Wei Zhaolin was silent for two seconds: "She may not be the best candidate."
Wei Biechuan was stunned: "What?"
"nothing."
Wei Zhaolin brushed it off casually, hung up the phone and then called the vice president.
"Can you bring me the computer where the surveillance video was stored? Or just give me the hard drive."
