The other players all had wards with care, and with this example, no one dared to neglect the patients.
Song Song and Ruan Qiao closed the door. It was completely dark by then. The corridor, devoid of the warmth and sunlight of the day, felt gloomy and desolate. The wind blowing from the forest relentlessly climbed up the hospital building, penetrating everyone.
Song Song took off his white coat and draped it over Ruan Qiao, who was only wearing a simple shirt, tall and slender.
Ruan Qiao thanked him, feeling the lingering warmth on her coat, and her thoughts drifted away again.
Where did Su Xi go?
He should either not come at all, or he comes and does a lot of things like a tiger, making a big show of it and throwing around free tickets, but then he leaves without saying a word after a short time. What does that mean?
What did she do that displeased him?
“Mianmian?”
“Ah.” Ruan Qiao came back to her senses.
Song Song thought she was thinking about what had just happened, so he brought up the subject: “What happened just now……”
He smiled, a hint of doubt in his handsome eyes: “I don’t quite understand why the patient suddenly became like that? How did you know Dr. Kevin would come?”
Ruan Qiao stepped up the stairs: “The service manual says that we need to ensure the patients are in a good mood. It’s very likely that once they start to doubt the existence of this hospital and doubt that their illness can be cured, they will enter a dark state, and the things produced by this dark state will harm the player. In short, these patients are not as simple as they seem, and they are very dangerous after they turn to the dark.”
She chuckled: “As for Kevin, that lunatic, he’s even simpler. He’s been secretly observing us, and there’s a strong desire in his eyes. It’s like he has ‘I desperately need patients to do surgery for fun, and if I don’t have any, I’ll get those newbies to dissect for fun’ written all over his forehead.”
Although Song Song didn’t understand, he still nodded seriously.
“You actually saw through that idea,” he said.
Ruan Qiao escorted Song Song to the door of room 403: “If you have a friend who is passionate about anatomy, you will also be extremely familiar with this kind of look.”
Yingchuang Xue’an, who was dissecting a mutant in a zombie dungeon, suddenly sneezed twice.
En.
It must be because this shelter is too rudimentary, with cold wind constantly blowing in, that made him sneeze.
Next time he’ll try to snag a better spot.
……
The three patients in bed A403 were already asleep. Song Song sat on the chair next to them, looking at Ruan Qiao who was about to leave, and asked in a flustered tone, “Where are you going?”
The blue-eyed man looked at her innocently.
Ruan Qiao whispered, “I have a mission. I have to go to the monitoring room. You stay here and wait for me to come back.”
Song Song glanced at the patient on the hospital bed and murmured an “Enn”.
Ruan Qiao tiptoed out of the door and closed it behind her. Suddenly, she felt the shadow on the wall move.
She looked around carefully, but there was no one in the corridors in front or behind her.
The light was on in the next ward, and Cowardly Mushroom and StrongNut were talking quietly inside.
Cowardly Mushroom already knew what was happening downstairs through the walkie-talkie, but this only made her more panicked.
Ruan Qiao glanced at the dark staircase in front of her, then turned and opened the door to the monitoring room.
The monitoring room was just as it had been when she left; the monitor screens were on. Ruan Qiao pulled out a chair and sat down in a comfortable position.
To be honest, watching surveillance footage is indeed a bit boring.
The night grew deeper.
Cowardly Mushroom glanced at StrongNut, whose complexion was getting worse and worse, wondering how much longer the other could hold on.
Around nine o’clock, all the lights in the ward went out at the same time, and the lights in the monitoring room also disappeared, plunging the cold hospital into darkness once again. However, some places still had power, such as the monitoring screens and a few chandeliers in the corridor.
The sudden power outage startled the other players, but the patients had clearly experienced it before.
Alina wasn’t asleep. She lay on the bed looking at the older brother in front of her, whose face was full of tension: “What are you afraid of?”
Song Song was startled by her sudden words: “I’m afraid something might happen,”
