Occasionally she would regain consciousness, and at those times, she would feel the pain of the burn.But she will soon pass out again. Juliet vaguely remembered that she was lying on her side in the airlock, feeling people walking around and feeling the smoke around her.At that time, her helmet had been melted and deformed, and the surrounding scene became distorted.She seemed to see a large silver star dangling in front of her, gradually approaching her helmet.Peter Berning watched her from the outside of his helmet and shook her shoulders vigorously, yelling for those around him to come and help him.

They carried her out of that smoky place, everyone was sweating profusely, and someone was busy cutting the hazmat suit off her body. They wheeled Juliet past the security officer's office on a stretcher, and for a split second she felt like she was floating through the place like a ghost.The wheels of the stretcher creaked under her, and she saw the iron fence passing by, and saw the empty bench in the detention room. Then she felt them carry her around in circles. go down. Then, when she awoke, she heard her heart beating, heard the hum of instruments, and saw a man dressed in white like her father.

He was the first to notice her waking up.He raised his eyebrows and smiled, then turned his head and nodded to the man opposite him. Lucas was there.Her vision was blurry, but she recognized his face at once, so strange and yet so familiar.She felt him take her hand.She knew that he must have been holding her hand like this and staying by her side all the time.He gently touched her face, crying and laughing.Juliet wanted to ask him what was so funny and what was so sad.Later, she slowly fell asleep again, and saw him shaking his head in a daze.
She doesn't just burn.She had burns all over her body.

While recovering, they kept giving her pain medication, and she was unconscious all day long. Every time she saw Lucas, she kept saying sorry to him.Everyone cares about her.Peter Berning was there too.There are a lot of letters from the mechanical and electrical department, a large stack, but people from the mechanical and electrical department are not allowed to come to see her.Every day she sees people in white clothes like her father, doctors and nurses.Seeing those nurses, she couldn't help but think of her mother.
Later, they stopped giving her painkillers.She woke up quickly.

Juliet felt as if she had just woken up from a dream.For weeks she was drowsy and had nightmares of being submerged in water, of being burned, or being sent outside, or of dozens of other bunkers.The medicine relieved her pain, but left her groggy.In fact, as long as she can stay awake, she is willing to endure no matter how painful it is. "Hi." She turned her head and saw Lucas beside her.Was he always by her side?As he stood up, the blanket fell from his chest to the floor.He leaned closer to her, held her hand, and smiled. "You look better." Juliet licked her lips.She has a dry mouth.

"Where am I?" "Medical area on the thirty-third floor. Don't get too excited. Do you need anything?" She shook her head.She was so excited to find that she could still move and talk.She tried to squeeze his hand tightly. "It hurts so much," she said weakly. Lucas laughed.Hearing this sentence, he seemed more relieved: "Of course it will hurt." She blinked and looked at him: "Is there a medical area on the 33rd floor?" He didn't answer. He nodded, his face suddenly became a little dignified: "I'm sorry, but this is already the place with the most complete medical treatment in the bunker. We will definitely cure you. Well, don't think too much, have a good rest. I'll call The nurse is here."

He stood up, and a thick book fell from his lap onto the chair and was buried between blankets and pillows. "Can you eat it?" She nodded, then turned to look at the bright lights on the ceiling.She regained consciousness, and gradually remembered many things, and painful memories flashed in her mind.
For several days in succession, she has been reading those letters, crying while reading.Lucas had been sitting next to her, helping her organize the letters.Letters flew in like snowflakes and were thrown all over the floor.He kept saying sorry to her, as if it was his fault for believing so much.Juliet read each letter several times, trying desperately to remember who was dead and who was alive.She couldn't believe that Knox was dead too.In my impression, that person was huge and strong as if made of iron.Thinking of him and Mark, she couldn't help crying.She really wanted to see Shirley, but they wouldn't let Shirley come up to see her.

At night, she would dream of many dead people, and often woke up in the middle of the night with tears on her face and wet pillows.Lucas always touched her forehead and told her not to be afraid.
Peter Berning often came to see her.Juliet thanked him again and again.Thanks to Bernin, all thanks to Bernin.It's his decision.Lucas told her all about that day on the spiral staircase.That day, Berning escorted him upstairs and was about to send him out to clean the lens. On the way, Berning heard her voice on the radio and found out that she was still alive. Therefore, Bernin decided to disobey and did not turn off the radio.He decided to keep listening.Next, he and Lucas started discussing the issue.Lucas told him all the truth behind it, because there was nothing to be afraid of, and he was about to be sent out anyway.The more she listened, the more confused she became, because Lucas mentioned what virus, what infection.Then Lucas said that later, news came from the radio that the people in the mechanical and electrical district had surrendered, but Bernard still sentenced them to death and planned to send them all out.

Thus, Bernin faced a choice.Should he defend the law, or must he obey the man who promoted him?Should he seek justice, or should he just carry out Bernard's orders?Being a puppet seems so much easier, however, Peter Berning is a man of integrity. In the stairwell that day, Lucas said something to Bernin.He told him that fate made them face the current situation, and they were unable to change it, but what they did was enough to change the future and determine their own future destiny.They can decide who they want to be. Lucas told Bernin that Bernard had killed someone and he had evidence.Lucas stressed that he himself did not commit a crime.

Therefore, Bernin told him that all the guards in the information area were below, and at this moment, only one person above had a gun in his hand.Only one person represents the law. it's him.
