21: Chapter 21 The Dean's Invitation

After taking a short rest, Chen Mo and Su Qing dragged the Class Monitor's corpse and threw it to the mental Patients in the pig cage.

Of course, there was no brocade pouch reward in the Class Monitor's pocket.

This was an unexpected situation.

Dusting off their hands, the two sat on a bench in the Hospital hallway.

They waited for the task rewards to be settled.

However, unexpectedly, the rewards were not settled immediately after completing the task this time.

Instead, they had to wait until the end of the game to have it factored directly into the total Thriller Game score.

"Sigh... Now we just have to wait until 12 o'clock." Su Qing let out a long sigh.

She lay directly on the bench, crossing her long, fair legs and resting one over the other.

She was being truly generous and open to Chen Mo, as he was sitting diagonally opposite her.

Su Qing was wearing a skirt, so...

"Ahem." Chen Mo coughed twice.

Su Qing lifted her head slightly and saw that Chen Mo's face had actually flushed a bit.

She immediately realized what was happening.

She hurriedly pulled down the hem of her skirt and changed into a normal sitting posture.

"Chen Mo, you'd better automatically delete the memory from your brain!" Su Qing reminded him.

"Definitely, I'm clearing my memory right now."

Chen Mo wiggled his eyebrows, putting on an expression as if his brain were compressing itself.

He said: "Cleanup complete."

"Who am I, and who are you?"

"Damn! Are you sick!" Su Qing was amused by Chen Mo.

She took off one of her sneakers and threw it at Chen Mo.

Just as the two were having some entertainment time.

The light bulbs in the hallway suddenly started flickering irregularly.

Between the flickering light and dark, the sound of high heels clicking came from the end of the hallway.

Chen Mo and Su Qing stood up immediately, one gripping the bone-scraping knife, the other gripping the scissors.

The light came on, and the two saw a young lady wearing a Nurse uniform appear directly in front of them.

The light went out, leaving only the sound of the Nurse's footsteps.

The light turned on again; this time, the Nurse was only 10 meters away from them.

The light went out again, and the footsteps grew closer.

Accompanied by the smell of blood that they could smell with their noses.

With two "bangs," the lights in the hallway suddenly returned to normal.

Although human eyes are flexible and can quickly adapt to the surrounding environment, automatically adjusting to light and dark sensations.

But when encountering this kind of rapid switching, the eye's adjustment function seemed somewhat useless.

In an instant, both of them subconsciously raised their arms.

To block the blinding light.

Chen Mo's gaze passed through the gap under his arm, and he saw a pair of fair feet wearing high heels, only 5cm away from the tip of his shoes.

A bad premonition suddenly welled up in his heart.

Chen Mo swallowed hard and slowly lowered his arms.

Then he saw a Female Nurse covered in blood, with no facial features, only the outline of a face, standing right in front of him.

The other party only needed to take one more step forward to have an intense emotional scene with Chen Mo right there.

Su Qing, standing beside Chen Mo, was so scared that she couldn't move.

The Nurse held a pair of scissors in each hand, snipping them with a "click-clack" sound.

At this distance, it was obvious that if a fight broke out, Chen Mo could stab his knife into her neck.

Similarly, the other party could also stab both scissors into his neck.

The outcome would definitely be mutual destruction!

Chen Mo's Adam's apple bobbed, and he forced a smile, asking: "Big sister, you must need me to help you treat a Patient, right?"

The Nurse had no facial features and could not make a sound.

Her neck suddenly twisted with a "click-clack."

Just like a Puppet.

Every time it turned 1cm, it needed to twist three times consecutively.

After sheathing the sharp scissors into her Nurse uniform, the Nurse reached into her pocket and took out a black card.

She handed it to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo reached out and took it.

The lights went out again.

When they came back on, the Nurse had already disappeared.

"What the hell, scaring people and then retreating." Su Qing collapsed onto the ground.

Chen Mo looked at the black card in his hand; on the front, a line of clear, branded text was written.

[Elevator Card]

Turning it over, a note was taped to the back.

It had a paragraph written on it.

[Use the Elevator Card to take the elevator to the 18th floor. I have something to tell you — The Dean!]

"Could this be a hidden task?" Chen Mo muttered to himself.

According to the rules of the Thriller Game, as long as a player completes their job, they will no longer be attacked by anomalies.

Then the only possibility is that because Chen Mo performed extremely well for three days, he triggered a hidden task.

He just happened to have the chance to break through to that S-rank rating that players envy!

[The Dean's Commendation, this kid successfully triggered a side quest.]

The chat messages in the Management Group just happened to confirm Chen Mo's guess.

"Chen Mo, this Dean is so terrifying, you'd better not go." Su Qing warned.

"Don't worry, we are both excellent employees; the Dean won't hurt me."

Watching Chen Mo reach the elevator, until the elevator doors slowly closed and the floor number, wrapped in a circle of light, began to rise.

Su Qing lay back down on the public bench; there was no one there this time.

Finally, she could spread her legs and get a good sleep.

The bed in the Dormitory was next to a toilet, and it was full of maggots.

Although the empty hallway was even more eerie.

But she was already an excellent player who had received three consecutive B+ ratings, so she definitely wouldn't be attacked by anomalies again.

So she fell asleep with peace of mind.

The elevator rose slowly, and Chen Mo's heart was filled with a mix of Fear and excitement.

Fear, because he knew the other party's strength was incredibly powerful and could easily take his life.

Excitement, because the unknown was about to be revealed.

With a "ding," the elevator doors finally opened.

To prevent any accidents, Chen Mo hid the bone-scraping knife in his jacket pocket, while also hiding his skill cards in the other pocket.

If a battle occurred, at least tapping his thumb would give him some reaction time.

Although the Dean was powerful, fire was one of the most violent forces in nature.

It should be able to cause significant damage to the Dean as well.

Arriving at the 18th-floor reception desk, there was a sign next to it.

The Dean's office was in a corresponding position to his own office.

Just on a different floor.

Chen Mo walked through the claustrophobic hallway with his hands in his pockets.

Only the sound of his own footsteps accompanied him.

After turning a corner, Chen Mo arrived in front of a huge door.

This door was 4 meters high, while normal Hospital doors were only close to 2 meters.

The width was two doors joined together.

It was clear that the door's design was very reasonable, allowing the Dean to enter and exit freely.

Chen Mo adjusted his breathing, and his facial expression management was also on point.

After everything was ready, he reached out, made a fist, and knocked on the door in front of him.

"Bang, bang, bang," three knocks.

Two knocks are for humans, three knocks are for ghosts.

Chen Mo was also very attentive to details.

"Dean, it's me! Many Children Many Blessings!" Chen Mo announced his name.

"Come~ in~"

A chaotic voice came from inside, as if the speaker's mouth was stuffed with thumbtacks.
