Jiang Liyue, on the day she became a shadow queen, was pulled into an infinite-loop novel and turned into the fake heiress who starved to death because she refused to enter the game. Good news: she...
Chapter 130 The Smile Was Somewhat Dangerous
After being moved, Xiaobaihe told Jiang Liyue what she knew.
She was originally a dancer, but one day she was suddenly captured and taken to Happiness Hospital for experiments.
It is said that someone brought out some kind of item from an ancient tomb, and that a certain element in it is said to have the effect of prolonging life. The doctors at Happiness Hospital are conducting research on that item in the human body.
"Back then, many people like me were also captured and used for research." Sayuri had been dead for a long time and could hardly remember how she felt at the time.
All I remember is that every day was painful, and I wished I could die sooner.
Until the outbreak of war, Happiness Hospital needed to house patients injured in the war, but was also afraid of being discovered to be conducting experiments.
Before they could be transferred, they were forced to stay in the hospital's basement.
At that time, some patients took the opportunity to rebel, causing chaos in the hospital, and the doctors also contracted the disease.
Unfortunately, the patients didn't have time to escape the hospital before it was destroyed by artillery fire, and everyone died.
"When I woke up, we were all like this now." Sayuri shook her body covered in rotting flesh, speaking of the matter without any gloom.
"So what happened next? Didn't all you patients become doctors? Why are you still lying in this morgue?" Jiang Liyue asked her curiously.
Instead of answering her question immediately, Sayuri looked shocked: "How do you know that doctors these days are actually patients?"
She was thinking of hiding this part of the content.
After all, this is the biggest secret of the Happiness Sanatorium.
"Because I accidentally saw everyone's files," Jiang Liyue said with a smile, spreading her hands.
Sayuri sighed, knowing she couldn't hide it any longer: "Alright."
She continued, "It was the patients who rebelled who took the lead. The patients occupied the hospital first, so the patients became doctors, and the original doctors became patients."
"As for me, I don't want to be a doctor or nurse..."
Sayuri was a singer in her previous life, but she was actually timid and lazy. After becoming a monster, all she wanted to do was lie down.
"And I... I'm actually a little afraid of ghosts." She shrank her neck.
Although she herself is now a strange being, she still feels afraid when she sees other beings like herself.
[So true! Actually, when I first became this weirdo, I was a little scared of myself and didn't even dare to look in the mirror. ///]
Actually, I also...
[What's wrong with being weird? Being weird doesn't get tired, and you can disassemble your body at will, so you're never afraid of getting sick again.]
[What was said before is correct. So, my boss used to make me work twelve hours a day, but now it's great. I don't get tired or sick, and I can work twenty hours a day.]
What kind of capitalist boss is this? Tell me the address, I'm going to eat him up.
【No need. Yesterday, our company's employees each gave the boss a piece of food. Now, the boss's head is being used as my stool. Didn't you see I can watch the live stream today?】
Well done!
Jiang Liyue never expected that Xiao Baihe's reason for hiding was so simple and unpretentious.
It turns out that even the supernatural is afraid of the supernatural!
This is so strange, yet perfectly normal.
Xiaobaihe continued shyly, "So I hid in the morgue, that way I usually don't see any other strange things, at most just corpses."
Jiang Liyue: ...It's not that normal.
After all, a normal person wouldn't do something like hiding from a ghost in a morgue.
Little Lily had no idea that Jiang Liyue was internally criticizing her; how could she continue speaking?
Although her body would gradually rot if she couldn't eat human flesh, she was already dead anyway, so she didn't mind dying even more thoroughly.
In contrast, she was more afraid of seeing other grotesque creatures with decaying bodies.
Fortunately, the head nurse and the others, considering that she had also been a patient, allowed her to stay in the morgue.
So she spent most of her time sleeping in the morgue.
“Except for the occasional new nurse like you who barges in, but I always scare them away.”
Just like how I scared Jiang Liyue earlier.
Xiao Baihe swallowed the words she was about to say and carefully observed Jiang Liyue's expression. Seeing that she wasn't angry, she said apologetically, "After all, this is my territory, and those people always like to rummage through my house."
It's truly bizarre that Sayuri treats the morgue like her own home.
Based on Xiao Baihe's account, combined with the information from the archives yesterday and the information revealed by Dean Zhen, Jiang Liyue was finally able to easily piece together the secret of the Happiness Sanatorium.
It was at this moment that the game notified her that the quest "[Discover the Secret of the Happiness Sanatorium]" was complete.
You can exit the instance early.
Jiang Liyue looked at the pop-up option to exit the instance and fell into thought.
At the same time, Shen Zhiyan, who was still in surgery, suddenly stopped moving and his expression became deep and terrifying.
Ji Yuan, who was still lying quietly on the hospital bed, suddenly sat up, staring blankly into the void.
The black aura around his body surged uncontrollably.
The other three patients in the ward looked at him in horror, huddled together and dared not speak, watching helplessly as he disappeared from the ward.
No, how come they didn't realize how terrible their fellow patients in the ward were before?
His presence was so low that many people thought he didn't exist.
Jiang Liyue felt that this instance was a bit dangerous.
Because in this instance, the dog-man becomes two, and both of them are exactly the same—jealous.
She can safely appease the two now, but once she's truly discovered, she'll be the one suffering the most.
If he were more obedient, it would be fine, but he's a dog who goes crazy when he's jealous.
She absolutely did not want to become a rag doll!
So, perhaps she could leave this instance early?
Since we can meet again in the next dungeon anyway, skipping this dangerous dungeon for now is definitely the best choice...
Jiang Liyue looked at the pop-up notification and a sense of danger arose in her mind.
Why don't you give it a try?
Jiang Liyue blinked slowly, itching to back out, but in the end—she chose "no".
The lesson from the first instance taught her that the bastard was the game's illegitimate child, and even if she sneaked out, the progress bar would be stuck halfway through and unable to move.
If the person fails to leave and is discovered by Shen Zhiyan and his group, wouldn't that be a loss?
After making her choice, Jiang Liyue nodded with satisfaction.
Then, the next moment, a faint voice came from behind her: "Yueyue, where were you trying to go?"
Jiang Liyue slowly turned her head and found that Shen Zhiyan was looking at her with a deep gaze.
Like a large, ferocious beast eyeing its prey.
Before she could answer, a hand grabbed her wrist. Ji Yuan stared at her with dark eyes and said, word by word, "Liar, you promised forever..."
Shen Zhiyan looked at Jiang Liyue, then at Ji Yuan, and suddenly smiled.
But that smile was somewhat frightening.
