I pushed open the door and walked into the stairwell. The door creaked in the air, but strangely, the sensor light in the corridor did not light up.
Looking at the dark stairwell, Yu Li used her mobile phone to illuminate it, with Yu Yu's words still echoing in her ears.
"The dean asked you to go to the fifth floor to get some documents. Go up the stairs. Remember, if you hear any noise on the fourth floor, don't go in. Go straight to the fifth floor."
She lifted her legs and walked up slowly. When she reached the fourth floor, the iron door next to her suddenly made a clanging sound.
“Boom!”
The sound continued to echo in the huge dark stairwell, even mixed with faint cries.
Yu Li paused and stared at the door handle.
【Do you think she will go in? 】
[I guess so. The monster on the fourth floor was lured so obviously that Yu Li couldn't fail to notice it.]
[But didn't Bai Jingmo forbid her from going to the fourth floor? He even stopped her halfway. That man must have known something was wrong on the fourth floor.]
[But I'm really curious about what's on the fourth floor. These NPCs have been trying to stop Yu Li from going there, warning her and telling her how scary it is.]
[What if we can’t win after entering? Just call Bai Jingmo down and go in together. ]
[To be on the safe side, Yu Li shouldn't have gone to the fourth floor first. Not to mention that she was alone, if the evil ghost really wanted to harm her, wouldn't this be exactly what he wanted? ]
Under the gaze of a group of spectators, the girl just stood there quietly.
But the door handle was pressing down little by little by itself.
“Crack—”
There was a slight sound in the air, and the door on the fourth floor was slightly opened. Cold air instantly blew in, accompanied by a slight chilly breeze.
The dark corridor was silent, as if inviting Yu Li.
Yu Li shone the flashlight over there, but the corridor was empty. She could only see a few closed doors. She couldn't even hear the sad crying from before.
She pondered for a moment, but before her body could react, anxious footsteps came from upstairs.
Looking up, a familiar figure suddenly appeared on the platform at the corner of the stairs.
"Yu Li——!"
In the pitch-black environment, Yu Li couldn't see the man's expression, but she could sense that he was a little impatient and flustered.
She paused, put down her phone, and said softly, "Dean?"
Hearing this, the man's body visibly stiffened. He hummed softly, then quickly walked down the stairs, his voice tense.
"Come with me."
The flashlight shone on the ground, and the refracted light was dim, but it was enough to see the man's uneasy expression.
Yu Li tilted her head and slowly touched the door handle.
Then, under Bai Jingmo's slightly nervous gaze, the girl pushed forward without hesitation and closed the iron gate directly.
"I was just going to close the door before going up."
She scanned the man's face and asked, "By the way, Dean, why did you come down so suddenly?"
Bai Jingmo pursed his lips, his voice a little hoarse: "I... just waited a little too long, I was worried that something might happen to you."
Yu Li walked up with him, her voice echoing in the empty stairwell: "Accident? What accident?"
She laughed softly: "Is there a murderer in the hospital?"
“…”
Sensing the silence of the man next to her, she turned her head and said, "It's just a joke, the dean won't mind, right?"
Bai Jingmo clenched his fists, his eyes unclear, and after a long silence, he whispered, "...No."
As they were talking, they had already reached the fifth floor.
The layout of the fifth floor was very different from the other floors. Yu Li noticed that several of the doors were locked tightly, and the smell of blood in the air became more and more obvious as she passed by.
She glanced casually at the window.
Very good, the curtains are drawn tightly.
Following Bai Jingmo to his office, there was a sign at the front of his desk with Bai Jingmo's name on it.
Yu Li's gaze stayed on it for a few seconds, and then she slowly said: "Bai Jingmo..."
The woman's voice was low and slow, with a slight rise at the end, revealing a barely perceptible smile. In the silent office, it was inexplicably alluring.
Hearing this, Bai Jingmo's pupils shrank, his hands that were looking for the document stiffened, and he felt as if an electric current was passing through his whole body. His heart felt as if it was gently brushed by a feather, causing waves of itchiness.
His eyes were dark, he took out the document and handed it to Yu Li, rolling his Adam's apple: "You will give this document to Yu Yu later."
Yu Li took her eyes off the name tag and took the document with a smile: "Okay, Dean."
"Um."
“…”
There was some silence in the air. Yu Li continued to smile and said, "If there is nothing else, I will go down first."
But just as she turned around, the man suddenly grabbed her arm, "Wait..."
"hiss--"
Before he could say anything, he saw the girl suddenly gasp, frowned, and looked a little uncomfortable.
He was stunned for a moment, and quickly let go of her hand: "Sorry, did I hurt you?"
Yu Li shook her head, put her hands behind her back, lowered her eyes and said softly, "No, it's my own problem. I'll go down first, Dean."
Seeing the other person like this, Bai Jingmo felt inexplicably upset.
He frowned and stood there in silence for a few seconds. He seemed to have thought of something and lowered his voice: "Was it scratched by the patient this afternoon?"
It is not uncommon for this to happen to mentally ill people, and many people were scratched today.
Hearing this, the girl neither admitted nor denied it, but just stood there quietly with her head down.
Bai Jingmo frowned unconsciously, but he didn't dare to say anything harsh: "Didn't you handle it?"
