It was located in the southwest corner of the entire test center. It was the farthest room from the exit.

Inside the locker room of the staff by the entrance, Lisa changed into work clothes, took off the smartwatch, and kept it in her locker. She took off the invisible smart glasses and invisible smart headphones and kept them in special medicinal solutions.

According to the working discipline of the test center, none of these personal electronic products could be brought into the test room, so as not to cause the privacy of the testes to be leaked inadvertently.

After closing the locker door, Lisa and Jisoo walked out of the locker room, passed through the middle rest area, and reached the No. 7 test room.

In order to enter the test room, one must first be authenticated.

Lisa aimed her eyes at the door-side eyepieces. The eyepieces then scanned her iris.

After she was verified, the words "line-of-sight password input interface" appeared in front of her eyes.

At the upper end of this interface was a virtual keyboard with randomly distributed keys, and the lower end had a nine-digit password box.

Lisa focused her eyes on a key of the virtual keyboard and stayed there for one second.

The letter or number or symbol represented by this key jumped directly into the password box. There was no need for manual input, and no one else could snoop on the password. The test room door opened, and Lisa walked in.

Jisoo also verified her identity. It was not her extra effort, but the identity verification, combined with the function of checking in, had the function to prove that she had gone to work on time.

The test room was not large — only about ten square meters. The walls, floor, and ceiling were all colored charcoal gray.

A bit north of the middle, there is a human-shaped metal high-back chair with an adjustable angle and movable joints. The chair was covered with a black leather pad.

Above the high-back chair was a huge hemispherical helmet suspended from a robotic arm.

The helmet was intensely heavy. It had tiny spikes on the inside, which made it look stunning.

The console was very wide, with a holographic projection screen in the front. There were two rows of faders on the left, and a console on the right, with dozens of dense buttons and knobs.

Lisa sat down in front of the console, entered her license number and password with the same "sight password," and started the device.

This set of equipment was the "Compression Resistance Tester." It is an interactive consciousness mapping instrument commonly used for psychiatric diagnosis and treatment.

It was possible to diagnose mental illness in most areas of consciousness using this set of equipment. It allowed people to enter a special mental state commonly known as "fantasy" or scientific name "deep consciousness floating state" for special mental treatment.

Therefore, in order to operate this equipment, a bachelor's degree in clinical psychiatry or above was required. This was why Jisoo could only be a test assistant and not a tester.

Lisa's stress-resistance test function is to put the testee into a "fantasy world" to allow him or her experience various life pressures and setbacks and see how he or she responds.

This was the main reason why she is getting tired of this job. She always had a feeling that she was doing evil, and she was the bad guy for placing these people into such situations.

Fortunately, this was her last day of the job.

After starting the tester and carrying out a routine inspection according to the procedure, Lisa looked at the time displayed on the corner of the console and ordered Jisoo, "Go ahead!"

Today's first test subject was a girl with big eyes named Park Jihyo. She came in and laid on the humanoid lounge chair.

While locking her head and limbs firmly with a leather buckle, Jisoo gently explained, "The tester must accurately locate your brain area, so your head should not move during the test, and your limbs must be fixed... "

The test then began. The lights in the room gradually dimmed; the human-shaped high-back chair slowly tilted, taking the girl's body into a posture that was conducive to relaxation. The robotic arm sent the huge helmet over and falsely wrapped around the girl's head.

Lisa skillfully operated the tester and used the tester to guide Park Jihyo's brain waves, which control neurotransmitters release.

The holographic projection screen of the operation platform one by one projected realistic and illusory or dark and gorgeous pictures.

The people in the picture were so vague that one could not tell whether it was a male or female. Although most people carried a reminder of their identities, this was the memory of the girl.

Lisa pressed the buttons on the console, and the picture of the holographic projection screen began to undergo various changes.

When the test was about to end, the door of the test room automatically opened. Under normal circumstances, the door would not open until the test was over.

Lisa focused on operating the tester, unable to part her eyes from the screen. She then heard a terrifying scream, which was followed by someone stuttering her name.

"Li... li... Lisa..."

She quickly controlled the console to make the big-eyed girl Park Jihyo escape from the "fantasy" to avoid any accident, causing her mental damage.

As the operation ended, Lisa felt that someone had come to her side.

Before she could confront the person who interrupted the test, a cold object rested on her temple.

"You're so focused!" A man said mockingly.
