Hospital No. 444.

Chapter 635 White Tower

"Turtledove, do you know the law of karma?"

"I know about curses, but what do you mean by causality, Dad? Is it like Paradox?"

She often heard her mother and sister mention the word Paradox.

"For example..."

In front of six-year-old Natsume Kakuro, Natsume Heisuke pointed to the comics on the bookshelf behind her and said, "Just like Doraemon's magical props."

Natsume Kakujiu is of Chinese and Japanese descent, so he likes to read Japanese comics, naturally including Japanese national comics such as "Doraemon".

"Dad, it's Doraemon."

"For example, many of Doraemon's props have causal effects. For example, Doraemon helps the hero solve a problem, and after taking out the props, it often produces some causal effects."

When Natsume Kakajiu heard this, he still didn't understand what his father Natsume Heisuke said.

"For example, when the protagonist Nobita is short of money, Doraemon can give him a prop, and then his uncle from another city may suddenly visit him and give him a red envelope. Didn't you notice? According to the time, the uncle's departure for Nobita's house in Tokyo happened before the prop was used."

When Natsume Kakajiu heard this, he was stunned.

"Yes... It's really incredible. It's not like a time machine... In fact, when Nobita Nobi was short of money, his uncle might have already been on his way from other places. In other words, props can even affect the past?"

But then she felt something was wrong: "No, if that was the case, then my uncle would have been on his way to Tokyo. Even without the props, Nobita could have gotten... the red envelope from my uncle."

"This is the causal spell that I want to develop for the hospital. In the three-dimensional world, causality can only be the past cause that results in the present or future result. But the causal spell can affect the past now. Even anything that happens now may be the result of the influence of the causal spell in the future."

"Indeed, there are many other props with similar effects..."

Natsume Heisuke immediately took out another Doraemon comic from the bookshelf and opened it, saying, "For example, this comic, 'Three Thousand Miles to Find My Mother'."

"Oh, I remember. Nobita was scolded by his mother, so he asked Doraemon to prevent his mother from seeing him. So Doraemon gave him a pill. As long as he took one pill, he had to walk 300 meters to see his mother. Otherwise, no matter what happened, even if they lived in the same small house, the two could not see each other."

  When Natsume Kakujiu first saw this comic, he also thought it was impossible. Although the protagonist Nobita's house has two floors, it is only about 100 square meters at most. Unless one of Nobita and his mother ran away from home or died, how could they not meet?

But unexpectedly, the pill Doraemon took out actually had the terrifying ability to influence cause and effect. When his mother wanted to find Nobita, either a phone call came or someone visited. When Nobita wanted to find his mother, Fat Tiger and Suneo would take him out to play baseball. Even when his mother drew a lottery, he would directly win a trip to Guam. In short, under the influence of the terrifying power, Nobita could not meet his mother no matter what he did.

Although it is a comic, Kakujiu feels worried for Nobita and is even more amazed at the power of Doraemon's gadgets. She doesn't believe that humans will be able to develop such things in the future.

"I thought it was just a fiction in the comics..." Natsume Kakujiu asked in surprise, "Does this kind of causal curse really exist? Two people can't see each other even if they try their best?"

"There are very few similar symptoms in the current hospital cases, and it is extremely rare even among curses. Once we encounter it, it will be a very difficult situation for us." Natsume Heisuke pointed to his computer: "As I said, rare does not mean non-existent. If we can turn this curse into a cursed object and use it for our own benefit... we can even make sure that the patient has never been cursed from the beginning, and we can achieve an absolute cure!"

The look on Natsume Kakujiu's face when he looked at his father Natsume Heisuke was filled with admiration.

Since she was a child, she was closer to her father, while her sister was closer to her mother. Sometimes they were clearly a family, but it seemed like they were in two different camps.

Her mother had always been against her father's development of new spells, and she had heard them quarrel many times.

My mother always felt that even if the curse became a cursed item, it would still be harmful to doctors and patients, especially since my father was simply crazy and wanted to develop a causal cursed item. Just like Mary Shelley, the idea of ​​forcibly developing a causal cursed item was simply crazy. In the end, countless lives would inevitably pay for his crazy idea.

The father's rebuttal was that the development of cursed items would inevitably lead to death, but without cursed items, doctors and patients would still face the threat of curses. Since he became a psychic doctor, this was his fate. A powerful cursed item could equalize the difference between doctors and evil spirits. In Banjiu's memory, she and her sister discussed these things when they were alone together.

"Father's idea is good," Turtledove hopes that his father's idea of ​​developing causal spells can be realized. "Father can become a better spell doctor than Rod Darren. Developing causal spells is his dream."

"Rod Darren is a genius among geniuses," sister Zhu Lu shook her head. "Surpass him? How is that possible? I think mom's idea is correct. Dad is forcing himself to develop this cursed item. How can he solve the problem of curse backlash? For patients, is this treatment or murder? Cursed items cannot be tested on mice. In the end, human lives will have to be used to pay for his dream."

"The white tower of medicine is built with the bones of countless people. Apart from spells and surgery, there is no other way to cure the curse on the patient." Turtledove continued: "I want to see the day when my father's dream comes true."

"Turtledove, have you ever thought," said Sister Ibis, "what if the corpses under the white tower include us or our families?"

……

Until now, the turtledove has not been able to answer her sister Ibis’ question.

The development of cursed items is a process of continuous trial and error, and this process is accompanied by the death of countless people. Among them is Mrs. Ophelia's brother. At that time, Mrs. Ophelia, as the wife of the vice president and the matriarch of the Faust family, magnanimously took in the two sisters. Therefore, Ibis and Turtle Dove simultaneously proposed that they were willing to cooperate with Miss Lelia's experiment, which was both a way to atone for their sins and to gamble their lives to realize the causal curse.

"This case is so similar to the one my father and I talked about at that time..."

Just like Nobita Nobi, Alex and Melty and his wife can never see each other.

This is a typical curse of causality!

Natsume Ikaruga stroked his hair.

She was here now, relying on the power of the causal spell. Just as her father said, the present cause affected the past result. But in the final analysis, everything she did was extremely dangerous. If she was not careful, she might be retaliated.

"Dai Lin..."

She continued to repeat the name.

She and Dai Lin had never met.

But she knew that she would meet this man named Dai Lin in the future, and her future self would influence her present self, making her meet Dai Lin no matter what, at any cost.

Not only that, she can sense her future self's emotions, and these emotions even affect her past self.

As long as she saw the man's appearance and heard his name, Natsume Kakujiu would have an urge to meet him at all costs. This urge could not be suppressed by reason, nor could it be explained by rationality.

"What happened between him and my future self?"

At this point, she quickened her pace and continued forward.

She could sense the location of Melty and her daughter, but the strange thing was...

Why is the distance between mother and daughter getting farther and farther?
