It's like a huge, isolated replica of the place; even someone as perceptive as Anning would have a hard time spotting the cameras inside.

People usually install cameras on corners, but Angel Sanatorium is different; they install every camera in unexpected places.

In an empty corner of the corridor, the camera wasn't under the ceiling, but on the floor.

The black hole wasn't pointing towards people's heads, but rather towards the soles of their feet.

Yes.

The soles of the feet.

And outside the balcony, you can see a camera as soon as you open the window, facing the center of the window. No one knows the specific purpose of its installation.

Is it used to photograph people, or to photograph something invisible to the naked eye?

An Ning didn't know.

Perhaps she will find out the answer in the next seven days.

The prerequisite is that she can maintain enough freedom in this nursing home.

Otherwise, being locked in her room all day long, unless she had steel claws that could dig a hole in the floor with her bare hands, she really couldn't imagine how she could escape.

Based on the information they currently have...

Their actions this time seem to be completely intertwined.

Yes, now all eight of them are in the same boat, they'll live or die together.

If that's the case, then she'll be in a difficult position.

It's difficult to motivate a group of people.

But this isn't a game; she can't carry the whole team by herself.

After thinking it over for a long time, An Ning suddenly grabbed Ji Yan's hand right under the noses of the nurses at the sanatorium.

Her palms were cold, which was due to her constitution, but the other person's palms were warm, as if they were sweating.

It looked like... he was so nervous his palms were sweating.

Upon realizing this, An Ning paused in her movements and raised one eyebrow slightly.

Ji Yan noticed this action and immediately tried to pull her hand away from An Ning's grasp, but the other woman's grip was too strong.

She struggled for a long time but there was no response.

I felt as if my hands were being clamped by iron clamps.

She doesn't react no matter what she does.

In order not to disturb the nurses at the sanatorium, Ji Yan gritted her teeth and made no further movements, letting An Ning hold her hand.

“Male and female patients need to stay in separate rooms. Male patients, come with me.” The tall female nurse looked at them and spoke, her expression very indifferent. You couldn’t tell that she was acting at all; she seemed to really be a nurse in this nursing home.

Feeling her hand tighten in her palm, An Ning gently shook her arm to reassure Ji Yan not to worry.

But it's fine when she doesn't sway; once she does, things get really bad.

Ji Yan originally wanted to break free from An Ning's grasp, and An Ning loosened her grip slightly, allowing Ji Yan to break free.

This scene was witnessed by the petite nurse with the eyelids, who immediately frowned and said, "Female patient, come with me."

She walked ahead to lead the way, occasionally explaining the rules of the Angel Sanatorium to them.

“We usually have one room per person, but rooms are a bit tight right now, so until a room becomes available, the four of you will have to make do and sleep in two rooms.”

The nurse stopped in front of a room, pointed to An Ning and Meng Qi next to her, and said, "You two can sleep in one room, and the other two can sleep in another."

She arranged rooms for An Ning and the others in such a fast way that it was incredibly quick.

An Ning frowned slightly, grasping the key point in the nurse's words, "Sister, you just said that once we have a free room, we won't have to squeeze together anymore, right?"

She posed the question to the nurse, who was puzzled but nodded, "Yes, we need to make room for you. How can we make room for you now that you're already living here?"

Her tone was self-righteous, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said.

Anning still focused on what she considered the key point, "So how exactly can we free up a room that was previously occupied?"

"Was it after they were discharged from the hospital... or after they died?"

An Ning's words gave Ji Yan and the others goosebumps. Ji Yan looked at An Ning, her lips moving for a long time without saying a word.

What does she have to say?

Anning's guess is indeed very reasonable...

This is a mental hospital...

A few deaths... that should be normal, right?

No, how can it be normal for people to die in a mental hospital?

To everyone's surprise, the nurse laughed to herself after hearing An Ning's words, "You guessed right. Do you know how many people have died in the three years I've been here?"

"have no idea."

An Ning's decisive and earnest answer left the female nurse speechless. This was not the question she was asked in the first place, so why was she giving such a hard answer?

The nurse snorted coldly, ignoring An Ning's rudeness. A strange smile played on her lips, the corners of her mouth slowly widening. "Six!"

Do you know what six means?

"This means that someone dies here every six months."

An Ning responded to the conversation without any hesitation.

His expression was very calm, and his gaze was fixed on the other person.

She thought that her actions would make the nurse think she was a normal person, but it turned out that the nurse was not a normal person either. After hearing her words, she gave An Ning a deep look and coldly uttered three words.

"Neuropathy."

On the very first day, he was diagnosed with mental illness by staff at a mental hospital.

An Ning blinked, showing little reaction.

Seeing how calm An Ning was, the nurse realized there was something wrong with her. She took a step back and coughed lightly twice. "You can go into the room and get familiar with things. Dinner will be served soon."

As she spoke, she made way for Anning and Mengqi to enter the room where she had just been standing.

Meng Qi didn't want to move at all.

But there was nothing that could be done; Anning had moved.

She can't stay still.

After all, she felt safer standing with Anning than with this nurse.

Thinking this through, Meng Qi immediately made up her mind and walked into the room with an air of indifference.

An Ning was somewhat surprised to see her approach. "It's only been two days, aren't you afraid of me anymore?"

Her words were spoken with a smile, clearly a joke to Meng Qi, but Meng Qi didn't find the joke funny at all.

She turned her head away and snorted coldly, "I'll remember you. Watch out for me, or I'll stab you in the back."

She threatened Anning in a low voice, but Anning didn't care at all. When she heard her words, she just nodded and said, "Okay, whatever you like."

Her reaction was too bland, and Meng Qi found it a bit boring, so she started to ask the important question, "What do you think is the easiest way to get out of here?"

An Ning looked down at the bed inside, and answered Meng Qi's question without looking up, "It's fine as long as he's dead."
