Chapter 116 Disagreement
Chapter 116 Disagreement

No one refuted Du Shangjing's opinion.

It was a consensus among the four that there must be a ghost on the first floor that could kill people without them realizing it.

However, no one has any idea how it kills people and what the taboos are.

If I stay on this floor any longer, no one can guarantee that I won't be the next to die.

The goal of this mission is to survive, and the survival period is a full seven days!

And now, only half a day has passed.

In half a day, two of the seven people had been killed by the evil spirit, and the other one, Bai Yanliang, seemed to have been trapped on the third floor from the beginning.

No matter what, staying on the first floor is just waiting for death.

The four of them had made up their minds, exchanged glances, and began to climb up the stairs to the second floor.

……

On the other side, on the third floor, Bai Yanliang was quietly following Nurse Tang through the corridor.

Soon, the two entered the stairs and came to the huge closed iron door.

The dark steel filled the entire corridor without leaving any gaps.

Bai Yanliang reached out and touched the huge iron door. The cold touch gave him a special sense of oppression.

There's a... weird atmosphere that's hard to describe.

Bai Yanliang always felt that there was something extremely terrifying behind this door, ready to pounce on him.

Human beings’ fear of the unknown is indeed the greatest.

Tang Xiaowen walked to the iron gate, reached into her pocket, took out a key, and opened the iron gate with ease.

She pushed forward with force; it seemed the iron door was not light.

"Let me do it."

Bai Yanliang stretched out his hand, pressed on the iron door, and began to gradually apply force.

"squeak--"

The door opened.

The strong light suddenly penetrated into Bai Yanliang's pupils, causing him to cover his eyes subconsciously.

Then he smelled a faint scent of medicine and heard the sound of footsteps.

Bai Yanliang tried to move his hand away, but his eyes seemed unable to adapt to the light well.

To be precise, these should be Hu Chen's eyes.

What comes into view is the golden sunlight. The dust particles swirling in the air are clearly visible, and the faint warmth of the sun makes people reluctant to move.

On the white walls were hung slogans commonly seen in hospitals:

Be down-to-earth, study hard, perform duties conscientiously, and make selfless contributions...

Love conveys life, patience protects health...

"This is the second floor!" Nurse Tang's voice became much more lively, although her face was still as scary as ever.

"This is where we work and live, and he is the only patient here." Nurse Tang said this while pointing to the window.

Bai Yanliang followed her finger and looked towards the window. The man was the bald middle-aged man who called himself Hu Chen whom he met last night.

"Who is he?" Bai Yanliang asked.

"He..." Nurse Tang hesitated, "He is Doctor Zhao. He was originally our doctor, but he suddenly went crazy some time ago..."

"Doctor Zhao? Is he a doctor?" Bai Yanliang asked in surprise.

"Well, actually, the surgeon in charge was Doctor Zhao, but he suddenly went crazy, so Dean He took over."

"That's it..."

"By the way, Hu Chen, don't listen to his nonsense. He forgot his own name but remembered yours. He always says he is Hu Chen, which is quite pitiful..."

"Yeah, it's quite pitiful." Bai Yanliang nodded and glanced at the man by the window.

Doctor Zhao seemed to have lost his soul. He leaned against the window blankly, looking out. He did not turn around when he heard people talking about him.

Tang Xiaowen didn't talk any more about Dr. Zhao. She walked into the hall, waved to Bai Yanliang, and said, "Come here."

Bai Yanliang followed her in. The hall was empty, with no doctors or nurses in sight.

"Huh? Why is there no one?"

"It's lunch time now, everyone is resting, but I have to accompany you." Although she said this, Bai Yanliang did not hear any dissatisfaction in Nurse Tang's tone. On the contrary, she seemed more relaxed and happy than when she was on the third floor.

Bai Yanliang looked at her. Although she still had only an open mouth at this moment, he seemed to see the cute appearance of a cute little nurse taking a break from her busy schedule.

"You...why are you looking at me..." Tang Xiaowen suddenly lowered her head and said in an embarrassed voice.

Bai Yanliang looked away, smiled and said nothing.

She is indeed a human being, a normal human being...

The real problem is "Hu Chen's" body.

What Bai Yanliang didn’t know was that in the eyes of Du Shangjing and others, these nurses... also looked terrifying and bizarre.

"Can I just walk around?" Bai Yanliang asked.

"Well, just don't go to the first floor. There are many mentally ill patients living there. They are very dangerous..." Tang Xiaowen reminded.

Bai Yanliang nodded.

Danger?

A truly dangerous person would not be left on the first floor unattended.

Hu Chen was locked up alone on the third floor, and it was obvious who was in more danger.

Seeing that Bai Yanliang agreed, Tang Xiaowen sat aside to take a rest.

So far, Bai Yanliang's performance has been very cooperative. If there is an award, he can even be named a model patient.

Bai Yanliang glanced at Nurse Tang out of the corner of his eye. She had already started to doze off in her chair.

In the entire second-floor hall, only he and the middle-aged man who was leaning against the window in a daze were left.

There was no trace of Du Shangjing and the others. It seemed that they were on the first floor.

Bai Yanliang walked towards him without hesitation.

……

Du Shangjing took the lead and walked up the stairs to the second floor.

However, even though he could reach the second floor by the next corner, he suddenly stopped.

Du Shangjing turned around hesitantly and looked at the three people: "Do you... smell anything?"

taste?

Qin Chuan and Su Jieyi sniffed carefully, and it seemed... there was indeed a strange smell.

Xu Zhifei was as cold as ever, but this time, she suddenly said, "I'm not going."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Zhifei turned and walked down the stairs.

"Xu Zhifei!" Qin Chuan glared angrily: "What do you mean?"

Fear has caused Qin Chuan's thinking ability and reason to begin to collapse. He is now like a swollen sea urchin, covered with thorns, ready to hurt people at any time.

However, Xu Zhifei ignored his words. She didn't even look back at the three of them, and walked out of the house at a very fast pace.

Looking at her leaving back, the three people had different expressions.

Qin Chuan's eyes were red and he cursed her in a low voice, "Bitch."

Su Jieyi had a blank expression on her face, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Only Du Shangjing was thinking silently, but he felt more helpless.

He knew the reason why Xu Zhifei left suddenly. Xu Zhifei was a man who was so rational that he was almost cold.

There are only two reasons why she would do this.

One, she had found a better way.

Second, she felt that it was better to act alone than to be with everyone.

The first possibility is not very likely, and as for the second one... Du Shangjing has also noticed it.
