Chapter 118

Although Codename wanted to say that he would protect them, Shen Xinlu was really worried.

Maybe he really is Shen Yunzhe's ability, but he appears too harmless. His long silver hair and silver eyes are indeed the doll style that Shen Yunzhe likes. It is difficult for people to trust someone who appears to be gentle and pitiful on the surface. Codename Hope happens to be one of them.

Just when Shen Xinlu was worried, a child behind her started crying.

This is a three-year-old child who had just been sent to an orphanage. His parents died in a car accident and he has not yet adapted to life without a father or a mother.

We came here without even having lunch. The child started crying because he was hungry after a nap, and he kept crying for mom and dad. The director tried to comfort him in a low voice but it was no use. Children are infectious creatures. Once one of them cries, the eyes of the others also turn red, and they start sobbing and are about to cry together.

Codename Hope glanced back, the children's figures reflected in her eyes.

"Xiao Xi?"

"I don't like sharp sounds." Codename Hope covered his ears aggrievedly, his eyes red, "It's so noisy."

"The children are too young to be controlled." Shen Xinlu only thought that his ability was Shen Yunzhe's, so it had some flaws. She turned back to hug a crying child, "I'm sorry, just bear with it for a while, they will stop crying soon."

Codename Hope covered her ears and looked at them. "I can bear it, but this crying will attract the attention of strange creatures."

The moment the words fell, there was a creaking sound, and the door of the small room was pushed open. Thick vines squeezed into the small room. Shen Xinlu reacted quickly and stood in front of everyone. A huge flower stretched out, and the head of a rotten corpse poked out of the flower.

The foul smell of decay quickly filled the entire room.

Even though Shen Xinlu was a senior police officer, she was shocked by the miserable appearance of the corpse, not to mention the life teachers and children who had never seen a corpse before.

The child was frightened and burst into tears, and his sobbing echoed throughout the room.

"We found you." The corpse stared at them and began the plot, "Come and apologize for us!"

The narrator's voice rang in everyone's ears, but it was not very clear because of the children's crying.

"Miss Zhu found the first group of townspeople and demanded an apology from them. There were children among them, and if she received an apology, she might let them go."

"But I didn't expect them to show any remorse. Not only did they not apologize, they even insulted Ms. Zhu and Mr. Liang even more fiercely. The children even picked up stones and threw them at them."

"The townspeople are insulting Miss Zhu."

"The townspeople are slandering Mr. Liang."

"Town residents, you are unrepentant."

The children were crying loudly, more than a dozen children were crying loudly. Shen Xinlu was paying attention to the plot and the strange object in front of her. The two life teachers and the dean were unable to comfort them at all.

Only Codename Hope sat there with a resentful look on his face.

He began to regret agreeing to do this for Shen Yunzhe, and he began to regret actually coming here.

There were sharp cries in his ears and a foul smell in his nose. After being in a place with nothing for a long time, Code Hope was stimulated to the point of going crazy, or he felt that the string of his rationality had broken and he could no longer endure it.

If Shen Yunzhe's future is like this, it would be better for Shen Yunzhe to have no future!

The narrator kept urging her, and the child behind her was still crying. Shen Xinlu was overwhelmed. Just when she felt she was about to collapse, a man slowly stood up. He walked around Shen Xinlu and came to the front, face to face with the strange creature.

Codename Hope spoke, his voice was very soft, even less loud than when he greeted Shen Xinlu before.

But this voice was so cold that it seemed like it was going to fall apart. Even though Shen Xinlu couldn't see his face, she seemed to be able to see his expressionless face.

He said, "Shut up and get out now."

The narration paused for two seconds.

"Not only did you not apologize, you also..." Before the vengeful spirit could finish its words, Codename Hope snapped its fingers in front of it. With a puff, something like a beam of light rose from the ground and penetrated the flower under the vengeful spirit. In just a moment, the vengeful spirit's doubts turned into screams.

The flowers and vines began to rapidly wither and dry up, and the stench of decay grew stronger, like fire burning rotting flesh.

The tips and leaves of the vines were burned off, and they retreated like escaping ghosts, leaving only broken branches and fallen leaves on the ground.

The wind blew over, dispersing the strong stench, and at least it smelled better than before.

Codename Hope Brick looked behind him, staring at the crying children, the emotion in his silver eyes was not good.

The adults present looked at Codename Hope in horror. Shen Xinlu was the first to react. She quickly asked the dean and the teacher to comfort the child. They frantically tried to comfort the crying child, telling him not to make too much noise even if he cried.

When the children finally calmed down, she was covered in sweat. When she turned around, she found that Codename Hope was not in the room. He seemed to have gone out.

At that moment, Shen Xinlu realized that her fingers were trembling.

She was a police officer and had fought with criminals before. She was very sure that there was murderous intent in Shen Yunxi's eyes. He had a very sharp hostility towards the object that made the noise. At that moment, the crying child and the rotten and weird creature were the same in his eyes!

Shen Xinlu walked out of the room, and the next moment she saw Codename Hope squatting on a stone outside the room. He sat there, looking outside, but his eyes were empty.

Just as she was about to speak, Codename Hope put her index finger in front of her lips and made a shushing gesture to her.

"Don't talk." Codename hoped to smile, but that smile looked dangerous. "If I hear too much noise again, I might lose control."

"If I really lose control, Shen Yunzhe will scold me."

"For your own good, and for my own good, be quiet. Understand?"

Shen Xinlu returned to the house. Her mind was in a mess. The only thing she understood clearly was: Shen Yunxi was in danger!

His danger was beyond expectations. Shen Xinlu, who had been a police officer for so many years, initially thought that he was an innocent and simple person, which was in stark contrast to his current state.

When did Shen Yunzhe start liking this kind of doll? He doesn't read red-eyed wall-dong literature!

Perhaps it was because he was Shen Yunzhe's ability but not with Shen Yunzhe? So he was in an unstable state? Shen Xinlu thought this was very likely.

During the emergency training, Shen Xinlu knew that most of their abilities were compatible with the weird. A doll, a doll compatible with the weird, it would be normal, right? Shen Xinlu silently convinced herself that now she just had to wait for Shen Yunzhe to finish his work and come back.

To be honest, even as a police officer, she found it difficult to remain normal in front of Shen Yunxi.

…

Shen Yunzhe didn't know what was happening outside, but he was very confident in Codename Hope, or rather, he was very confident in Codename Hope's abilities.

The only person with special abilities in all parallel worlds who can directly harm strange creatures, codenamed Hope, has improved his abilities during 20 years of imprisonment in a small dark room. Ordinary strange creatures cannot get close to him at all. He is probably the only person who can directly ignore the plot of the movie.

Shen Yunzhe walked around the hospital inside and out. Although he had no memory of this place, Shen Yunzhe found that he walked very skillfully, as if he had been here for a long time. This was the code-named doctor's familiarity with this place.

The emergency department has two floors. The first floor is the emergency room, the second floor is the inpatient observation room, and the basement is the morgue. It is a very sloppy setup, so sloppy that Shen Yunzhe complained about its unprofessionalism as he walked.

The hospital was severely burned. Both the second floor and the basement were black, and the white walls were smoked black. It must be that a large amount of combustion accelerant was used, so everything except the walls was burned, even the instruments were burned.

For some reason, Shen Yunzhe urgently wanted to find a piece of paper and a pen to draw a map of the terrain he had visited.

...Tsk, my fingers are itching to move, but I have no props.

Just then, Shen Yunzhe saw a file book lying alone on the burned ruins. He walked over and picked it up with some surprise.

When I opened it, I found a name signed on it: Chen Nuo.

Shen Nuo? His last name is Shen? Could he be a codenamed doctor?

This is actually the file of the code-named doctor?!

The game judges you as the codenamed Doctor, and in order to bring the movie to a close, they repair something. If the ruined movie becomes the background, it could actually become a new movie.

Therefore, the game field needs to send some clues to Shen Yunzhe.

Shen Yunzhe flipped through the file and soon saw a large amount of handwriting. What surprised Shen Yunzhe more than the content above was that the handwriting of codenamed Hope was exactly the same as his. It turned out that although the personality and occupation of the isotope were different, the handwriting was still the same.

[Codename Doctor is a record-keeper. He records everything he encounters, so fixing this is equivalent to completing the entire background story.]

Shen Yunzhe nodded and began to read what was written on it bit by bit.

Codenamed Doctor, that is, Shen Nuo. He likes to make plans and keep records. The files he makes are very neat and clean, with a hint of obsessive-compulsive disorder, but this kind of organization does allow him to clearly record everything that needs to be done.

New game "Jiahua Movies" announcement: You need to act out a movie according to the plot. You can leave the game after playing a role in a movie.

The movie's title, "Emergency Room," is a bit too simple, which is worrying.

This has a very ominous feeling. Four players are ER doctors, five are ER patients, and the remaining four are family members of someone who has died. That's thirteen players in total. And: Although it's a movie set, this ER hospital is so unprofessional it's hard to complain about.

[The first player died. He was an emergency room patient. It seems to be a plot kill.]

[The second player who died was an emergency room doctor, the one on duty last night.]

[I was on duty tonight and saw a miserable corpse. It was the car accident victim introduced at the beginning of the game. It was in the basement and was looking for its family. The plot required me to talk to it.]

Background story: A patient in a car accident died in the emergency department and was wheeled into the morgue awaiting family claim. There was something fishy about the patient's death, most likely caused by the family.

[New plot: It is clearly stated that the patient was killed by his family for money.]

[The second patient in the emergency department died. It's hard to understand why the family of the deceased in the car accident had a grudge against each other. Why did the patient and doctor upstairs die?]

I mentioned this idea in the cafeteria, and it drew some strange looks from the other players. It seemed like there was something I wasn't aware of in their storyline: the family members of the deceased had been kept in the hospital, unable to leave, yet none of them had died so far.

A third emergency department patient died.

When the first victim's family member died, the emergency room doctor looked strange. The plot didn't give me any clues, just told me to go to work. Working here is much more boring than my job outside.

[The second deceased's family member died, and during the night shift, the deceased's body was seen wandering around, constantly saying it wanted revenge. The patients were terrified, but the two doctors were in a good mood?]

[The archives discovered organ trafficking. What a cliché. So, are all the patients in the emergency department on the second floor the ones who bought the organs of the deceased? Are the doctors the traders?]

Why don’t I know anything?

The record came to an abrupt end. Shen Yunzhe flipped through the pages, but he didn't see any new records. He only found a topographic map at the end of the notebook. It was drawn by the code-named doctor after he had looked at the entire emergency department. He drew it in great detail, even showing the location, direction, and windows of the toilet.

Shen Yunzhe realized that the code-named doctor might have been assigned a special role like himself.

This kind of character may be called the "protagonist" in the work. He comes to an unfamiliar area without knowing anything, and gradually notices some strange things and discovers the truth of the matter, just like the warrior who suddenly appears in the Liang Zhu story.

Shen Yunzhe didn't know the specific plot, but judging from Liang Zhu, it wouldn't be a good plot.

Those plots were unfolding bit by bit in secret, and the code-named doctor was kept secret. I guess other players were even envious of him, after all, he was not caught up in such a terrible plot.

But is it really like that?

Shen Yunzhe put the file book down, turned around and walked to the stairs, walked down the stairs, and finally stepped into the basement. The sign of the morgue had been burned clean long ago, and only a half-burned door was left. Shen Yunzhe pushed open the door, and a charred corpse sat up on the charred morgue table.

The corpse's abdomen was shriveled and its entire body was burnt. It got down from the morgue and walked step by step to Shen Yunzhe.

He staggered with every step he took, and it wasn't his fault, because his body was riddled with holes from the car accident.

"Doctor." The corpse opened its mouth and an unknown voice emerged. "Have you discovered the truth?"

"Doctor, do you really think this is a place to heal illnesses and save lives?"

"Doctor, they are hopeless!"

"Doctor, last time you told me: It's not them who are hopeless, but this reality, this place that forces them to become doctors, patients, and family members. Do you still think so now?" The corpse faced Shen Yunzhe through a door. "It's them who are hopeless."

Shen Yunzhe took two steps back, his back leaning against the dark wall. He kept gasping for breath, and a strong urge to vomit came over him.

Codename Doctor is a doctor, but he hates doctors. Does he really hate doctors? With the synchronization rate too low, it is difficult for him to truly understand the emotions of his peers.

Why would Code Doctor, a doctor, hate doctors?

[World A03719, Codename Doctor's synchronization rate has increased to 100%!]

[Shen Yunzhe! Control your emotions!]

The sharp anger and disgust shattered his sanity. Shen Yunzhe felt that he couldn't breathe, as if something was covering his mouth and nose and making him unable to breathe. He began to feel dizzy and flashing snowflakes began to appear in his eyes because of the suffocation.

Amidst the buzzing tinnitus, those sounds were so clear.

'The plot made us do this! It's not our fault! We were just trying to survive!'

"Don't you want to live? Don't be silly, resisting the plot will only lead to death!"

"Do you really think you're a saint? Then go be one yourself. We want to go home. We won't stay here!"

"The movie is about to end. Please wait here!"

Shen Yunzhe raised his head and looked at the charred corpse in front of him. His face was expressionless, but there was sharp hostility in his eyes.

"They deserve to die, you deserve to die too, and this playground deserves to die."

"You are a bird trapped in a cage, thinking that this is all you have and feeling complacent about it. You don't know who you've killed or how many innocent people you've hurt, yet you're here telling me they deserve to die."

Shen Yunzhe's voice was filled with undisguised anger, "Are you trying to make me laugh to death?"
