Chapter 182 Whistle

Chapter 182 The Whistle (Part 1)

After dinner, Wei Hongsi took Shen Qing back to her apartment and returned to his dormitory at 8:30.

He took a shower in the bathroom, sat down at the table, and was considering whether to play a couple of games or read a book when Shen Qing sent him two recorded songs.

Wei Hongsi then remembered that he still needed to help her choose songs for chart rankings, and he felt a headache coming on.

He opened the "System" panel and took a look.

Current contribution points: 1088

After completing the "death command" removal surgery on Xia Yuansheng, the related event earned a total of 700 contribution points.

78 patients with "mental pollution" sent by the police have been cured, including Ran Tong and Meng Cai, who have earned a total of 156 contribution points.

Adding the 62 points obtained from "Neural Bridge Protection" and "Neural Translation Pack", plus the 170 points remaining from before, I now have this many contribution points.

I'm still 12 points away from exchanging for the "cheapest" Whistle skill. I estimate I can heal 8 people by tomorrow, then that should be enough.

Wei Hongsi was just about to reply to Shen Qing and tell her the results tomorrow when he saw that Shen Qing had sent him the lyrics to two more songs, along with a message: "Waiting online!"

"Isn't there a need to rush? Isn't the chart-topping event supposed to start next week?"

Wei Hongsi couldn't help but mutter to himself, feeling a bit of pressure.

He opened the software, ready to perform spectrum analysis on the two songs, but after seeing the waveforms from the previous analysis, he gave up.

Shen Qing's song is already recorded. This isn't about offering any suggestions for improvement. What else can be done after the analysis? Using this to make a decision is no different from rolling dice. It's not just deceiving yourself, but also deceiving her.

He pondered for a moment, copied the lyrics Shen Qing sent into a document, and began to read them carefully.

He may not be a connoisseur of music, but he has read quite a few books and possesses basic literary literacy, at least higher than his musical literacy. Choosing songs based on lyrics is clearly much more reliable.

He first read through the lyrics of both songs in their entirety, and the one titled "The Brave" particularly moved him.

The lyrics depict a person in adversity who never bows down to difficulties and perseveres with unwavering faith despite numerous setbacks and traumas.

The lyrics do not describe the situation after experiencing hardship, probably because the future of the song itself is still unknown.

It merely describes a state, or rather, a spirit of resisting adversity, conveying a tenacity and resilience that remains steadfast despite countless trials and tribulations.

Wei Hongsi discovered that Shen Qing had a very good command of words; it was truly remarkable that a girl could write such powerful lyrics.

It is this sense of power that gives the entire song a vibrant and uplifting tone, so that even the descriptions of suffering do not appear gloomy.

Wei Hongsi read the lyrics of both songs several times, and then replied to Shen Qing: "Both songs are great, but I prefer 'The Brave'."

97

This isn't exactly a cliché; the lyrics to the other song are also very well written, but personal preferences are inevitably somewhat subjective.

Shen Qing quickly replied, "Right? I like this song even more!" She then sent a hand emoji.

Wei Hongsi couldn't help but smile, knowing that it meant a high five, not a slap, so he returned the same expression.

The two chatted for a few more minutes, and then Shen Qing asked, "Are you going to rest later?"

Wei Hongsi: "I'm going to play a game before I go to sleep."

Shen Qing: "Oh, I'm not good at this, you play it then."

Wei Hongsi replied, "Okay." He thought to himself, Shen Qing doesn't seem to play games at all, otherwise she would at least ask, "What games do you play?"

The next day at work, Wei Hongsi paid more attention to the treatment of patients with "mental pollution" in addition to handling his main tasks.

Of the remaining 45 patients, at least half have already completed their treatment; they just need to come in for a follow-up examination to confirm that they have been cured.

Only about 20 patients were in more severe condition, making them the perfect candidates to apply the preliminarily validated "emotional reshaping method" to test the results achieved.

By 3 p.m., the number of people confirmed to have been cured that day had reached 6, and Wei Hongsi had also accumulated 1100 contribution points.

This time, without any hesitation, after finishing what he was doing, he brought up the "System" panel and redeemed "Whistle Playing (Lv.5)," and his contribution points were reduced to zero.

Wei Hongsi sat quietly for a while, but neither felt the skill related to the whistle filling his mind nor did any memory images surface in his mind.

Just like the last upgrade to "Cognitive Restructuring (Level I)," there was no special feeling.

Could all of this really be an illusion? Or is the "system" just a useless fraud?

He hesitated for a moment, then a person vaguely came to mind.

He was a middle-aged man with a round face, who often wore a light gray fisherman's hat. Without any prompting or hesitation, he naturally knew that this man was his father's friend, Uncle Zhang.

He thought back carefully and remembered a fragment. It was a sunny afternoon when his family, Uncle Zhang, and his daughter went to a scenic spot, and he was happily running on the grass.

These memories appeared very naturally, like long-lost memories from my childhood. They were already in my mind, but I didn't think about them often, so they became somewhat blurry.

Is this the memory related to the whistle? Are those lost memories hidden in the skills that can be exchanged?

Wei Hongsi was lost in thought when his cell phone, which was on the table, suddenly rang.

He glanced at it and saw that it was Zhang Shengyong calling, so he answered and put it to his ear.

"Hongsi, I have some bad news for you. Something has happened in KR country." Zhang Shengyong's voice sounded somewhat low.

Wei Hongsi asked, "Could it be that those three patients can't make it?"

Zhang Shengyong said, "You guessed right. We just received news that the three patients and their escorts were involved in a serious car accident on their way to the airport. All seven people in the car perished."

"Huh?" Wei Hongsi exclaimed in surprise. "This can't be a coincidence, can it?"

Zhang Shengyong snorted coldly and said, "What do you think?"

Wei Hongsi frowned and said, "The person who started this is far too audacious!"

Zhang Shengyong said, "It's not just audacious, it's downright lawless. The situation in KR country is very different from ours. You should know that many members of that organization are from country A."

Wei Hongsi asked, puzzled, "And then?"

Zhang Shengyong said, "In KR country, people from country A are like their fathers, do you understand?"

Wei Hongsi paused for a moment, then asked, "Doesn't that refer to the stationed troops?"

Zhang Shengyong said, "There's not much difference. It would be very difficult to send someone over now."
