The first face-to-face contact with the Shadow King ended with Raymond almost suffering a secret loss.

But it can be considered a safe passage, and the Shadow King should not appear again in a short time.

Thinking about it, you know that if the Shadow King could really take over David's body by force at any time and anywhere, he wouldn't have to spend so much time lurking for thirty years and continue to secretly influence David.

It was obvious that he didn't want David to discover his presence.

Because once David is wary of him, no matter what he does next, he will most likely be alerted by David, and it will become more and more difficult for him to break through David's psychological defense.

Moreover, if there was a head-on fight for the body, he shouldn't have any confidence that he could overtake David.

After all, David is a level five mutant. Even if his potential has yet to be developed, his body cannot be taken away casually.

If not, he would have been lying dormant for thirty years when he was full.

Under these conditions, it is obvious that the Shadow King is unlikely to appear frequently, and Raymond is not worried about this at all.

In addition, this contact with him was not without gain.

In addition to being woken up by the Shadow King's blow and completely putting aside his unnecessary sense of superiority, he also gained 50 exploration points.

Even if 10 points are used up, there are still 40 points left, which is an unexpected surprise.

The only problem is that his plan to send David away is obviously impossible to succeed. With the old dog of the Shadow King watching, it is impossible for David to pass the so-called rehabilitation test.

The resident doctors, including Dr. Beth, might have been tricked by the Shadow King a long time ago, and it is impossible to let David go no matter what.

"Is there really going to be One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest?" Raymond rubbed his forehead, feeling a little headache.

A David who could fall ill at any time already made him no longer want to stay in the hospital, and now there was a shadow king who wanted to cause trouble, which made him feel a strong sense of uneasiness.

It's like putting a grenade next to your pillow when sleeping. Even if you know that the grenade will not explode easily, you still can't avoid being worried.

It is certainly a bad idea to forcefully leave the hospital by force, but staying here does not seem to be a good choice either.

"If there is really no other way, this is the only way to go," Raymond thought to himself.

He decided to give himself a few more days to think about whether there was a better solution. If he couldn't think of it in the end, he would have no choice but to leave first.

Better to be labeled as a fugitive mentally ill than to be around a powder keg all the time.

Having made up his mind, Raymond spent the whole morning racking his brains to think about whether there was any way to get the best of both worlds, but unfortunately, no inspiration came to him.

David seemed to have completely forgotten what happened in the morning and was never seen.

It wasn't until lunch time that Raymond met him in the cafeteria.

But during the chat, there was no mention of the test at all. Raymond also probed tactfully and found that David really didn't remember what happened in the cafeteria that morning.

Raymond said no more.

Even if he really wants to help David, there is no good way now.

If he desperately told David directly about the Shadow King now, although it would bring some trouble to the Shadow King, there was no guarantee that it would not end with the Shadow King revising his memory again.

When the time comes, he will become a thorn in the side of the Shadow King.

Being targeted by such a fourth-level mutant that even Professor

So I can only pretend to be stupid for the time being.

Anyway, according to the original trajectory, the Shadow King couldn't really do anything to David.

With the intervention of the upcoming mutant organization Summer Island, it is only a matter of time before the Shadow King is exposed, and there is no need for Raymond to intervene.

As for the secret loss he almost suffered at the hands of the Shadow King in the morning, Raymond believed that he would have a chance to regain this position sooner or later, there was no need to rush.

After lunch, Raymond originally planned to go back to his room and take a nap.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the cafeteria, he was stopped by a young nurse.

"Dr. Raymond, there is a friend of yours outside who wants to visit you. Do you want to see him?" The little nurse's attitude was very polite, which was completely different from how she treated ordinary patients.

This is also inevitable.

Because of Raymond's achievements in psychology, several resident doctors in the hospital respected him, especially Dr. Beth. Almost everyone knew that Raymond had been her idol.

Even the resident doctors respected Raymond, so it was not surprising that the nurses had this attitude.

After all, even the previous owner of the body was not a madman in the true sense in the eyes of ordinary people. Before he turned into a sub-personality, he was quite normal.

"My friend" Raymond pointed to his nose in surprise when he heard this.

"Yes, it's a lady. She didn't say her name, but she asked me to tell you that if you want to change your life, she might be able to help." The little nurse told the truth.

"Oh"

Raymond was a little surprised by this answer.

When he thought about it, it was not surprising that the friends of the original owner of the body wanted to come to visit. From the messy memory of the original owner of the body, he also saw that the relatives and friends of the original owner of the body had come to visit.

It's just that the words that the man asked the little nurse to convey were obviously a little weird.

What does it mean if you want to change your life somewhere, can you help me?

Isn't this just another way of saying I can help you leave the hospital?

Also, what kind of friend would come in without announcing his or her name, but instead relaying such a strange statement?

This is not that Raymond is careless, but that the matter itself is very abnormal.

He was at least 70% sure that the person outside who wanted to visit him might not be a friend of the original owner of the body at all.

There is definitely something fishy about this matter

However, after thinking for a while, he decided to meet this so-called friend.

No matter what the purpose of this person is, or whether she can really help him leave this hospital in an upright manner, there is nothing wrong with meeting her.

Even if he's a liar, he won't drop a piece of meat once he meets him, right?

Thinking of this, Raymond smiled slightly and said, "No problem, just take me there."

"Okay, please come with me." The little nurse didn't think much and led the way for Raymond.

After a while, the two came to a visiting room.

In North America, the visiting rooms in psychiatric hospitals are actually somewhat similar to the visiting rooms in prisons. There will be a special small room with a camera and a staff member responsible for monitoring.

Of course, a hospital is not a prison after all, and it is not that strict.

Therefore, the two parties can communicate directly face-to-face without the need to talk through a layer of glass, and the staff generally do not deliberately listen to the communication content.

Most of the time a certain amount of privacy is left for patients and visiting family members.

The main purpose of their surveillance is, firstly, to fear that the patient will suddenly become ill and harm the visiting family members; secondly, they are afraid that the visiting family members will not understand the severity and give the patient something that does not comply with the regulations.

In general psychiatric hospitals, everything from tableware to large furniture are specially customized because they are afraid that patients may harm others or themselves when they become ill.

So they will try to eliminate any foreign dangerous items.
