5: Chapter 5 Ward
"Che- Che- Chen, Chen Mo, you, you, you, gho- gho- ghost!" At this moment, Su Qing was stuttering so badly she turned every single word into four.
"That's right, this is the Patient we need to take care of. Get up quickly, what is your task?"
Su Qing was pulled up from the ground by Chen Mo, still feeling shaken.
When a normal person sees such supernatural phenomena, their vital signs are bound to skyrocket.
For example: elevated blood pressure, a racing heart, and cold sweat pouring down.
However, the Thriller Game does not have these settings; only a Mental Value can be used to judge.
Seeing Chen Mo so calm before her, combined with the woman who had just left outside the room.
Su Qing immediately realized.
"The woman's scream I heard next door just now, was that her? What did you do to her?!"
"It's nothing, I just performed a small surgery," Chen Mo answered truthfully.
"Oh~ I see. Then it seems as long as we treat them normally, these ghosts won't harm us." Su Qing thought naively.
She saw that Chen Mo's diagnostic table was very clean, and the floor was the same.
She imagined that he must have just taken the female ghost's pulse or measured her blood pressure.
But Chen Mo was really bold. Encountering a real ghost for the first time and being able to normally perform a preliminary treatment on it was already very brave.
At this moment, when Su Qing looked at Chen Mo again, she suddenly felt that Chen Mo was very manly.
He was countless times better than those male students who had been scared until they wet themselves.
It's just that Su Qing didn't know...
If she had been present just now and seen the scene of Chen Mo performing the craniotomy with her own eyes, she wouldn't have been scared to death by the ghost.
She would have been suffocated on the spot by Chen Mo's operation.
"My task is to look after the Patients in those wards, and occasionally help you out when you need to perform surgery."
"Yeah! Let's go take a look then. My task for tonight is already completed."
Chen Mo and Su Qing returned to the dark corridor.
Su Qing was holding a tablet in her hands, which had a detailed structural map of the Hospital.
Although they had been pulled into a place similar to an alternate dimension, Chen Mo felt it was still worth a try.
"Is there a SIM card in the tablet?"
Su Qing nodded.
"But the only number displayed on it is the Dean's number. I tried dialing 110 just now, and it showed as an empty number."
"Hmm... As expected, everything in the Thriller Game serves the game content itself."
The two of them followed the blinking red dot on the tablet and arrived at the door of Ward 108.
The door was not closed; it was left ajar with a gap just wide enough for an arm to pass through.
Chen Mo and Su Qing were just about to push the door open.
At this moment, a message came from the Management Group.
[Hehehe, everyone, the long-awaited good show is finally about to start, you know what I mean.]
[Alright, Old Six, this isn't the first time people have come to No. 18 Hospital, we've long been tired of your tricks.]
[Isn't it just that the first person to reach inside will have a piece of flesh bitten off by a Patient.]
[No, no, no, this time it's an upgraded version.]
[I've set a trap. The first person to push the door and enter will trigger the mechanism and fall directly into a pig cage!]
Su Qing's palm was just about to press onto the doorknob when it was grabbed by Chen Mo.
"Ah!" Su Qing let out a shriek.
Chen Mo's palm was very strong, which made her look a bit stunned for a moment.
Immediately, she realized what was happening and puffed out her cheeks again.
Wearing an expression as if Chen Mo was intentionally taking advantage of her, she said angrily: "Chen Mo, why are you grabbing my hand?"
"Let go quickly, it hurts!"
Chen Mo didn't answer; he kicked the door in front of him directly.
With a loud "bang," the half-closed door swung wide open.
At the same time, two pale, ghostly hands reached out from both sides of the wall, making a gesture to grab a human waist.
They nearly grabbed Chen Mo's lower leg.
Su Qing's pupils dilated sharply, and she couldn't make a sound anymore.
Replaced by eyes full of Fear.
What appeared before the two of them was not the ward of a normal Hospital as imagined.
Inside, there was no bathroom, no windows, and even less so, no Hospital beds.
There wasn't even a floor!
What met their eyes was a huge, sunken iron cage, at least 3 meters deep, inside which were disheveled mentally ill people wearing striped Patient.
They were dancing and jumping wildly inside.
Making sounds that humans could not understand.
Chen Mo and Su Qing were working on the 13th floor, which meant...
If Chen Mo hadn't stopped her just now, the moment Su Qing opened the door and stepped in.
Her waist would have been grabbed by the two ghost hands, and then she would have been forced to fall directly into the pig cage located on the 12th floor, successfully joining those mentally ill Patients.
The 12th floor and the 13th floor were connected; the 12th floor had no ceiling.
[No way, what's going on with this guy called Many Children Many Blessings?! He could predict even this?]
[I checked his file; his parents are both dead, he grew up in an orphanage, and has mild antisocial tendencies...]
[Core personality: Rational type; Branch personalities: Decisive, Kind, Witty.]
[Weakness: Greedy for money.]
[Hobbies: Horror movie enthusiast. As for why he likes horror movies, it's to make his shop business better so he can earn more money?!]
[A rational personality, combined with a hobby for horror movies, it's indeed very likely he could predict our operations!]
[I think this Many Children Many Blessings must have inferred that there was no light inside and that it was an empty room before entering, by looking at the angle of the shadow on the floor. Plus the deliberately left-ajar door gapβhe must have seen such scary tropes many times in horror movies. Right! If you click on ward facilities in the tablet, you can view the spatial structure inside the ward. This guy is so cautious, he must have already looked at it when he was using the tablet just now.]
[He's really smart. We were watching this kid the whole time, and he still managed to pull off an operation to avoid us!]
[Old Six: No, I've tested this on 10 players, and all 10 fell down. It's just absurd.]
Chen Mo felt speechless when he saw the chat messages in the Management Group.
When the hell did I make such a detailed deduction?
I didn't even know I was that amazing.
Besides, aren't you guys great game Administrators? What's with this glass heart?
Just as Chen Mo was complaining infinitely in his heart, suddenly, his arm felt a warmth.
He turned his head and saw Su Qing looking at him with a grateful face.
"Chen Mo, thank you for saving me!"
"From now on, I want to be your best partner!"
Chen Mo quickly pulled his arm away and replied: "It's nothing. If you had fallen, it would have actually been very troublesome for me too."
The moment the ward was pushed open, Su Qing was originally supposed to fall into the trap as food.
And Chen Mo, having lost the help of the Nurse profession, would naturally be judged as unqualified in the subsequent two-day team collaboration tasks.
Although it wouldn't lead to death, Chen Mo still wanted to clear the level with a perfect score to get more rewards.
Hearing from the people in the Management Group, once you are selected as a player to come here, it won't be just once.
It's very likely you have to enter once every month, or even once every week!
Then, the rewards obtained for the first time after receiving a rating for No. 18 Hospital, which is called a newbie dungeon by the Administrators.
Will definitely have a crucial impact on clearing the next dungeon.
