There's a faint green tint to the skin directly adjacent to the base of the flower. "This is odd. My best guess is that you're being exposed to excessive chlorophyll. Good news, the worst thing that'll do is maybe mess with some antibiotics."
"Maybe it would've made you more sensitive to sunlight but ha! There's no noteworthy alterations to your body. You're healthy, sir."
Okay, that's one less thing on your shoulders. "Thank you, nurse-" You only now realize you don't know any of their names.
"Uri's fine." Uri, then, sure.
You get back to your feet now that your wounds have been tended to. "Just make sure you come back here if you feel any dizziness or you report any blurred vision. Head injures are nothing to joke about."
"Will do." You head back to the entrance, where your two coworkers were babbling away with some of the nurses and guards. You're about to leave, ready to get some actual sleep for once, when Hidaka interrupts you.
She stuffs something in your hand. "Keep your hand closed. When you leave. Gift, from me."
"Uh, okay?" Cryptic but you're not going to question it. "See you around."
With that, you exit the MEDBAY. You wave goodbye to Ashton and it takes her a few seconds to notice it. She waves back, clearly distracted by something but you're not going to pry.
You start the trek back to the dorms. Once you're out of sight of everyone, you open your hand to see a small plastic bag in your hand. Inside are two dented bullets, stained crimson with old blood. "EXTRACTED FROM ASH" is scribbled on the bag in marker. Interesting.
>DENTED BULLET x2 OBTAINED! (Contains small traces of Ashton's blood. Not as good as a full sample but still useful.)
>You are now ALONE.
The trek back to your room is uneventful. You step into the door room, glancing around to see how everyone else is handling themselves. You spot a few new faces and, sadly, there's a few empty beds where some of your fellow LEVEL 0s used to lay at. You can't say you're too shocked, this place seems like a death trap even at the best of times.
A few of them turn to look at you, whispering about you with a mixture of amusement and curiosity in their voices. You pick up a few snippets about the guy you killed and, embarrassingly, some stories involving your less-than-ideal social skills.
You try your best to tune it out as you reach your bed.|
You check the locker at the foot of your bed and, lo and behold, it's your CATALOG. You sit down on your (somewhat) comfy bed, ready to engage in even more shopping.
