26: Chapter 26 The Truth

Chen Mo entered the password he had previously derived from the musical score in order, then stepped back two paces.

He waited for the door to open.

"Beep!" After the password input device flashed red a few times, there was no reaction at all.

At the same time, a mechanical female voice sounded from it.

"Incorrect password!"

"What?!" Chen Mo stepped back two paces, somewhat disbelieving.

His mood instantly sank to the bottom.

At the same time, the users in the Management Group also collectively exploded.

[Damn! What exactly is going on with this No. 18 dungeon?]

[Many Children Many Blessings, could it really be that the only way is to kill the Piggy Girl?]

[This might be the only method. Although I also really hope Many Children Many Blessings can break the deadlock, time is really too tight.]

When a person gives their all, the results they produce being insulted or abandoned...

That feeling is very unpleasant.

It's like when you carefully work overtime until late at night to come up with a proposal, only to hand it to your boss...

And they just casually tell you: "Go back and rewrite it, it's not up to standard!"

At this moment, Chen Mo's self-confidence suffered an unprecedented blow.

Accompanying it was the intense Fear brought by time passing second by second.

More than half the time had passed, yet the password was wrong.

Is there really still time to find the answer?

If this password wasn't for opening the door in front of him, then it was very likely that this password was meant to open other floors in the Hospital.

Could it be... that he needs to find other lockboxes first, open them with this password, and then use the passwords inside to open the Basement?

If that were really the case, then Su Qing's judgment was correct.

The two of them had already spent a full 30 minutes in the Basement; 30 minutes.

That would definitely be enough to clear two more floors.

Chen Mo had only told Su Qing that this was a hidden task he had found.

He didn't tell Su Qing that if they didn't complete it, one of them would definitely die.

Even so, Su Qing was still willing to follow him to the Basement.

This proved that Su Qing trusted him implicitly.

In 2 hours, the Dean would enter a berserk state, a terrifying existence with Ghost Power as high as 150.

Killing him would be as easy as pinching an ant to death.

"Chen Mo, are you okay?" Su Qing ran over and supported Chen Mo, who was about to collapse onto the ground.

Chen Mo looked up and stared at her.

At this moment, Chen Mo's eyes lost their sharpness. Su Qing immediately understood the coldness and aloofness in Chen Mo's eyes before.

That must have been a disguise of his.

Those black eyes now revealed gentleness and kindness.

Su Qing's face immediately flushed red, and she pouted, saying: "Chen Mo, is there something dirty on my face? Stop staring at me."

"It's just a hidden task. Although you are smart, there must be problems in this world that cannot be solved."

"After we get home, I'll treat you to something delicious!"

"Aren't we friends?"

"Fri... ends."

"Chen Mo, what's wrong? Are you crying?!" Su Qing reached out her finger and wiped the tears from the corner of Chen Mo's eyes.

An uncontrollable wave of sadness suddenly welled up in his heart, just like when he found out as a child that he would never see his parents again.

In that instant, Chen Mo felt as if he had been abandoned by the whole world.

All that was left for him was to be alone, walking by himself on a dark road.

Two images flashed through Chen Mo's mind one after another.

The first was the scene of his parents in a car accident, all of them dying tragically.

The second was the cruel image of Su Qing's head being chopped off by an axe.

At this moment, an even harder choice appeared before Chen Mo.

Searching for time clues was definitely not enough; he wanted to live, and to live, he had to kill Su Qing.

[Why does Many Children Many Blessings seem like a different person? Isn't his core personality the rational type?]

[Could it be... that his body, that he himself really has a problem?]

[It's a manifestation of dual personality, very likely, there is another him existing inside his body.]

[But... even if it's a dual-personality player, our data should be able to capture it all, why does the data only show rational type?!]

Seeing that Chen Mo's state was wrong, Su Qing was also affected.

She was actually very smart; she was an observer, and she was easily influenced by those around her.

At this moment, she was subtly leaning towards the rational Chen Mo.

Su Qing took out the magic flute, held the flute body with her red lips, and played it slowly.

The healing sound of the flute felt like arriving in an uninhabited, dense jungle; looking up, there was only a green ocean covering the sky above.

From time to time, scattered sunlight shone in, presenting different boundaries of light and shadow on the ground.

It was a hidden, pure land of peach blossoms.

As the melody entered his ears, a kind of sad emotion over something about to be lost was successfully suppressed.

A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Mo's mouth, and he stood up again.

"That's right, everything hasn't ended yet. Sorry, I wasted 10 minutes of your time."

Seeing Chen Mo reveal a confident smile again, Su Qing put away the magic flute.

"Who's there?!"

A voice that sounded like a throat full of thumbtacks suddenly came from the distant corridor.

Chen Mo immediately grabbed Su Qing and ducked under the operating table.

The Dean's huge figure, with shoes as big as Chen Mo's head, passed right in front of the two.

In his hand, he was still holding a giant, dripping kitchen knife.

Su Qing saw the Dean's true appearance; her face turned pale, and she felt like she could stick two green onions into her nostrils.

The Dean walked slowly to the metal door and looked at the password input device.

Only then did he leave.

Unlike the places Chen Mo and Su Qing walked, the Dean seemed to know how to walk through walls; when his body submerged into the darkness, he disappeared without a trace.

Arriving at the first Basement level, Su Qing still didn't know that Chen Mo was actually doing this to save her.

But her interest in completing the hidden task was still very high, and she took the initiative to ask to go explore.

Chen Mo glanced at the time; there was an hour and a half left.

He lit a cigarette and held it in the corner of his mouth.

With one hand covering his chest, his originally calm eyes once again turned into sharp blades.

After exhaling a smoke ring.

Chen Mo once again overturned his own reasoning.

If one encounters a predicament again when approaching the truth of the matter, then it must be an omission of the information obtained previously.

"Chen Mo, think carefully, what else have you overlooked?"

"This is the Thriller Game, every area you explore contains clues."

Chen Mo opened the system panel, simulating as if he were entering the Thriller Game for the first time.

After Su Qing finished patrolling the first floor, she walked towards Chen Mo, swinging her arms.

She said: "Chen Mo, I'm exhausted. I didn't expect walking to be even more painful than taking care of those babies."

"Sigh... I feel like I don't want children in the future anymore."

"The way those babies laugh is too eerie. Even if you take away the toys in their hands, they won't cry!"

"Babies? Babies that only laugh?"

Chen Mo opened the introduction for the Nurse profession and saw that text again.

[Absolutely do not make those babies cry!]

"That's right! Those babies that only laugh, hehe." Chen Mo smiled disdainfully.

"I understand the whole truth now!"
