Chapter 232 [(*^▽^*)]
Qi Liang: "Do you know where in this hospital we can find its secrets that no one knows about? Preferably with the most complete evidence."
Xue Rui: "It must be the vice dean. Who else could it be?"
That's absolutely right. With the hospital director absent, who else besides the vice director could hold the hospital's most confidential intelligence? So they still have to confront this vice director, the big boss, head-on!
Huajiao looked at the five players, plus the two players who had left the team earlier, making a total of only seven. Could this number really kill the vice dean?
Qi Liang said, "I think the most urgent thing is to find those two people. That way, our chances of winning will be much greater. We haven't even tested how strong this vice president really is yet."
Huajiao sighed, "The problem isn't how strong the vice dean is, but that he can summon numerous monsters anytime, anywhere. He himself is definitely not that strong; at most, it's just that the two scalpels in his hands are a bit terrifying."
Qi Liang nodded. "You're right."
He had previously escaped from the vice president's clutches and had witnessed firsthand just how dangerous that scalpel was; he absolutely couldn't afford to get cut, otherwise…
Huajiao and the other four agreed on their plan, then said goodbye to Xue Rui. Xue Rui nodded and watched them leave, seemingly heading to find the other two players who had separated from them.
I originally thought it would be better if we separated, so that there would be two fewer people to deal with the things later. But now I think it's better to have more people. There's strength in numbers, and maybe we can defeat the big boss!
The two players hadn't gone far, and Huajiao and his men quickly found them.
After Xue Rui asked the system how many players were left, the system gave him the number eight. Goodness, besides Hua Jiao and the other five, two others had separated, leaving only him!
This instance is really difficult. Each player has their own identity, some are even staff members. Although he hasn't found any staff members yet, if he is a patient... as long as he is careful, there will definitely be no problems. At least he can survive without doing anything.
so……
Xue Rui sighed, wondering if he could survive to the end.
Lin Leyou arrived at the office and continued working on his computer using his mobile phone. Fortunately, a night had passed, and there wasn't much work to deal with.
It was all done in less than two hours.
Lin Leyou shut down his computer, put his phone away, and then got up to leave the office. Now that the work was done, he would take his team to inspect the hospital. He would go out for lunch, then go back to the office for a nap, inspect the hospital again before dinner, and then go back to the break room to sleep after dinner.
That's how I arranged my entire day's work.
Lin Leyou brought two security guards with him on this inspection tour. They were the two security captains from before, both of whom were strong, healthy, and highly skilled.
Meanwhile, Huajiao and his team had already persuaded the two players who were planning to split up with them, since they wanted to find the reporter first and then focus on gathering evidence.
But now that Huajiao and his team know who the reporter is, what else is there to say? Of course, they should go and take down the big boss first. As long as they kill the vice president, the entire hospital will be leaderless. Even if they don't find what they want from the vice president, they can more easily gather a lot of clues in the chaotic hospital.
"The boss is out, followed by two elite minions. What do we do? Can the seven of us handle this?"
"It seems unlikely. Can we find some other players? We asked the system before and there were eight, which means there's one more player besides the seven of us. We don't know where they're hiding, and they haven't shown up yet."
"Maybe he's a master of surviving, and he might still be the one to beat the game in the end?"
"This method might have worked for easier dungeons in the past, but things are different now. If he dares to show up at the end, I'll kill him first!"
"So what do we do now?"
"If you can't find the players, look for the NPCs! Aren't there many NPCs in this hospital who also hate the hospital and want to kill these people? Especially those with positions like the director and deputy director, they definitely want to tear them to pieces!"
Huajiao sighed, "But how do we find NPCs like that?"
Qi Liang: "Don't we know that NPC? Let's ask him!"
Huajiao: "Wait a minute, the BOSS went towards the inpatient building. Let's not go there yet, let's go after the BOSS leaves."
Qi Liang said, "Then let's wait until he leaves before going. I must say, this BOSS is really imposing. Nobody dares to get too close, for fear of being discovered."
They waited outside for over an hour before seeing Lin Leyou leave the building. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. "He's gone, he's gone. Shall we go over now?"
"How do we get across? It's broad daylight now. If we go over there, the doctors and nurses inside will see us. Qi Liang and I have already been exposed, so we can't show ourselves in front of them now."
The remaining five people looked at each other, and finally one of them stepped forward. "My previous identity was to accompany a family member in the hospital. My identity has never changed, but I rarely go out and about."
"Then go ahead, at least you can still enter and leave the hospital building openly."
"But... the NPC's ward is on the first floor, right? The first floor is a bit of a problem. It's easy for people walking around to see it, especially the nurses, they're always moving around."
"That makes sense. So what can we do? We can't just wait until tonight, can we?"
"How about we wait until after noon and see if the NPC comes out on its own?"
“Okay, he must know that we can’t find him in the ward, so he will definitely come out again. He will definitely go to the lakeside again, since there are many places to hide by the lake.”
"Then let's wait a little longer."
Lunchtime passed quickly, and everyone was starving. Fortunately, there was a player who could move freely around the hospital, so he went to the cafeteria and bought some food to bring back.
If he bought too much at once, he might be discovered, so he only bought enough for three people. Although it was a lot, there were other people around him who bought more, so it didn't attract any attention.
After bringing them back, each person could only get a small amount, but fortunately, after eating something, no one was hungry anymore.
After lunch, Xue Rui indeed went out for a walk, strolling leisurely all the way to the lakeside, where he sat down to rest where he had been talking to them.
Sichuan peppercorns: "Hey, they really came, and I was right about where we were waiting. Let's go, don't keep them waiting."
And so the seven of them came into Xue Rui's view. Xue Rui cautiously looked around and only breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't see any security guards.
"You've arrived?"
Sichuan peppercorns: "Yes, we're here..."
Xue Rui said, "Is there anything I can help you with? Just tell me, and I'll do my best to help you if it's within my power."
"We want to take action against the vice president, but he is very powerful and has many security guards and nurses around him. We only have a few people, and we may not have enough manpower."
Xue Rui stroked his chin. "You're thinking of bringing some other people along, right?"
Huajiao quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, that's exactly what I mean. There are just too few people. This vice dean can summon... no, I mean, he can get a lot of people to help him."
Xue Rui understood what he meant: Lin Leyou, as the big boss, could use his mobile phone to summon the hospital's security guards and nurses to fight the enemy.
If they cannot effectively suppress Lin Leyou's methods, then all the security guards, nurses, and even doctors in the hospital, except for those guarding the entrances and walls, will join the fight.
There will be so many monsters that it's impossible to count them all. How could just a few players possibly defeat them?
Xue Rui thought about it carefully, and hey! To be honest, he actually knew a few NPCs... When he went out invisibly before, he happened to see a few NPCs talking together. He wasn't in a hurry at the time, so he stopped there and listened for a while. They were NPCs who were going to cause trouble together. If he could act with these players, it would be twice as effective!
He then told Huajiao and the others about the NPCs, "These are all the people I know. You can go and discuss things with them. Huajiao and Qi Liang, your faces are the best proof. Being wanted by the entire hospital, they will definitely believe you."
Huajiao nodded, "I understand, thank you for telling us all this. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know what to do. We'll definitely take you with us when we escape from the hospital!"
Xue Rui smiled and said, "Thank you. I'll be waiting then."
All players have already identified Xue Rui as the key to the hidden mission. The main mission is to hand over the collected evidence to the reporter and help him escape. Xue Rui is the hidden mission. Helping him escape will also earn you points, which sounds like a great reward.
Xue Rui watched them leave once more, suddenly feeling that what he was doing was a bit unfair, but there was nothing he could do about it; after all, who wouldn't want to pass the game easily...
However, this means he won't be able to face off against Lin Leyou in the end. He's itching to get a match, wondering who's stronger between him and Lin Leyou.
After leaving the cafeteria, Lin Leyou continued to inspect other areas, even taking a stroll around the lake. He walked rather slowly, as he had simply come to admire the scenery. Unexpectedly, he encountered Xue Rui, who was all alone, there.
Xue Rui also noticed Lin Leyou and took the initiative to greet him, "Vice Dean?"
Lin Leyou walked over with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Zheng?"
Xue Rui, "Is the vice president out for a walk?"
Lin Leyou waved his hand, signaling the security guards behind him that they could leave. The two of them left quickly, leaving only Xue Rui and Lin Leyou there.
"Yes, I'm out for a walk. What about you?"
Xue Rui said, "I didn't want to stay in the ward all the time, it was too boring, so I came out for some fresh air. I didn't expect to run into the vice president, I'm so lucky..."
As he spoke, he reached out and shook Lin Leyou's hand, "Vice Dean... my illness..."
