Chapter 47: Cracking the Password

(0307, 0910, 1205.)

(These three sets of numbers are the dates you calculated using the calendar you made from the Dean's diary.)

(The three dates are the birthdays of the Dean, the Dean's daughter, and the Dean's wife.)

(You leave the archives and head straight to the third floor.)

(Some members of the security department stop you.)

(You blow the dog whistle, freezing all the security personnel in place.)

(You use the red access card to open the Dean's office.)

(The Dean is temporarily absent.)

(You quickly enter the three sets of dates, and 1205 is the correct password.
The Dean actually used his wife's birthday as the startup password.)

(You check the computer.)

(You discover some remarkable information.)

(Inside the Dean's computer, there are first-hand research materials left by Toto's mother, as well as chat records between the Dean and major clients.)

(The information from Toto's mother and the information from the second basement have some discrepancies, but you believe that the information from the basement was seen by you in an unclear state of mind, so it is not worth trusting.)

(You decide to rely on the information on the computer.)

(After reading the materials, you immediately summarize all the clues.)

(1.
The native people here refer to themselves as “Heavenly Beings”, and their home planet is completely different from yours.)

(2.
Petz was indeed created by transforming a humanoid creature known as “Xiva,” which is a species introduced from another planet.
The character you are playing is a Xiva.)

(3.
Heavenly beings scientists believe that Xiva is a low-intelligence being.
However, a biologist named Fisher has successfully nurtured the first cognitively capable Xiva, whom she named Toto.)

(4.
Fisher conducted research using Toto as a sample and believed that all Xiva could be transformed into a new species through socialization, hypnosis, and surgery.
She referred to this new species as “Petz.”)

(5.
After becoming Petz, the appearance of Xiva undergoes a significant change and eventually evolves into the appearance of a Heavenly being.
Xiva has a natural mimicry ability and with training and learning, they can perfectly integrate into Heavenly being's society.
This explains why you can mimic Heavenly beings perfectly by wearing masks.)

(6.
The chat records between the Dean and the clients reveal that the major client's purchase of Petz is not merely for “keeping pets.” They utilize Petz's exceptional mimicry ability to cultivate living organs.
They dissect Petz not for so-called “treatment,” but to cut off their limbs or organs for the treatment or organ transplant surgery of the Heavenly beings.)

(Based on this information, you make the following conjectures.)

(1.
Fisher came to Chongshan Hospital with all the research materials, intending to collaborate with Dean Chongshan.
However, in the end, she was imprisoned by the Dean and trapped in a secret room in the office, where she died.)

(2.
Dean Chongshan embezzled all of Fisher's research findings and also made a deal with the Unspeakable.
He took control of Toto, established, and modified this hospital, which is controlled by Weird rules.)

(3.
You are a person who has been hypnotized, and everything you see may not be real.
You must find a way to break free from this hypnotic state.
When you awaken from the hypnosis, you will also become the one who breaks the rules.)

(You have a faint feeling that if you find a way to break free from the hypnotic state, the power of the Unspeakable's rules will immediately crumble.)

(You connect to the internet using the computer.)

(You attempt to expose what is happening here online, seeking help from the police or the media.)

(You discover that the internet is filled with urban legends about Chongshan Hospital, where people are only interested in the strange rules and no one cares about the rights and dignity of Petz.)

(In their minds, Petz is nothing more than a lab rat.)

(The lives of the Heavenly beings come first, and no matter how precious the lab rats are, they are not as valuable as the lives of the Heavenly beings.)

(Everyone will fall ill one day, and Petz serves as their reserve living organ bank.
How could they undermine this plan that seeks the well-being of all Heavenly Beings?)

(You give up on seeking help through public opinion.)

(A door opens outside.)

(The Dean angrily enters the office.)

(Dean: What are you doing here?)

(You: Trying to uncover the truth of this world!)

(Dean: You're done for.)

(The Dean takes out pen and paper, preparing to write down new rules.)

(You put on the elephant mask and simultaneously swallow the red pill.)

(You decide to confront the Dean directly and understand his specific abilities.)

(You transform into a monster.)

(You charge forward and snatch the pen and paper from the Dean.)

(The Dean is shocked and calls for the security department.)

(You blow the dog whistle, freezing all the security personnel in place.)

(You engage in a physical confrontation with the Dean.)

(You have a slight advantage.)

(The Dean fights while running, and the dark figure behind him becomes clearer.)

(The Elephant Repairman arrives in front of you.)

(You take out the spider egg and activate the spider with the toad.)

(A giant spider emerges from the egg and heads straight for the Elephant Repairman.)

(You hold the toad in your hand, and the spider doesn't dare to come near you.)

(The giant spider wreaks havoc in the hospital.)

(You catch up to the Dean.)

(Dean: Wait, don't come any closer.
I surrender.)

(You notice the Dean's hand behind his back, making a suspicious gesture.)

(You don't give him any chance, refuse to engage in any conversation with the Dean, and directly pounce on him.)

(The Unspeakable behind the Dean rushes out.)

(The Unspeakable lightly taps you.)

(You freeze in place.)

(Everything turns pitch black before your eyes.)

(You attempt to terminate the deduction.)

(But you fail.)

(The Unspeakable appears before you.)

(Unspeakable: You'll be trapped here until death.)

(You descend into an endless abyss.)

(You can't break free.)

(Your consciousness is gradually torn into fragments by the void.)

(You die.)

(Deduction ends!)

Gu Yi opened his eyes and returned to reality.

“Hah–“

Gu Yi covered his temple with his hand.

The pain of being torn apart by the void still lingered in Gu Yi's mind, even now he can't alleviate it.

Not only that, but Gu Yi also heard the cold notification sound from the system.

“You faced the Unspeakable (Complete Form), and your mental power has been ravaged.”

“Your upper limit of mental power is reduced by 20 points, it can not be restored until the end of the dungeon.”

Gu Yi closed his eyes, feeling frustrated.

Reducing the upper limit of mental power by 20 points means that he can only conduct three consecutive deductions, greatly reducing the margin for error in his actions.

Thinking of using an exhaustive method to find the weakness of the Unspeakable is just wishful thinking.

Every time he will encounter the Unspeakable (Complete Form), it will inflict significant damage to his mental power.
If he continues to confront it without proper preparation, his mental power will eventually be reduced to zero.

“I'm already at the final step.
I can't give up now!”
