His comment made me realize, yeah, the hospital is way too quiet! Last time I escaped, there were lots of monsters in the hospital.

Even if some monsters have emerged from the hospital recently, there must still be many inside; it shouldn't be this quiet. Even if there's only one monster around, it would definitely make a sound.

“Someone must have been here before us,” Pu Weichao said.

That's possible.

Fei Lichao was very cautious and said to us, "Regardless of whether anyone has been here before, it's best to be careful. Dr. Lu, please give us directions to the pharmacy."

"Um."

I glanced at the situation inside the corridor. To the right was the infusion room. I remembered that when I was in the hospital before, there were many monsters in the infusion room, but now it was empty except for some stinking corpses and black bloodstains.

"It stinks," Qian Cheng said, covering his nose.

I don't really care. As a doctor, I'm used to all sorts of foul and pungent odors every day.

I said, "Let's walk towards the emergency room. The outpatient department is just past the emergency room, and the pharmacy is over there."

"Okay, let's go."

Fei Lichao went in the direction I pointed out, and we followed him carefully.

As I walked along, I noticed a strange phenomenon.

On the way to the emergency room, there were many corpses, all of which had their heads split open, and the blood and brain matter flowing from their heads seemed to have just congealed.

Fei Lichao turned to look at me and said, "You figured it out too?"

"Hmm." I nodded, and exchanged a glance with Fei Lichao; our expressions were both serious.

"What did you two figure out?" Pu Weichao asked from the side.

I said, "These monsters look like they just died."

"And then?" Pu Weichao stared wide-eyed.

“It’s possible that some of the people who came before us are still here,” I said.
