Chapter 4 Peace Medical School 2
"Why do you know so much?" asked the younger sibling.
Hua Haoming: "Because I am one of the people who came out of the game, or in other words, I am a game player."
I don't know if others believe it or not, but Xia Bai believes that Hua Haoming has entered the game. He has seen Hua Haoming in the photo in that post before, and judging from Hua Haoming's expression, he may have come out of more than one game.
Maybe he has another identity.
He is not a quiet person, but he is not a nosy person either. He is so patient. He is telling them all these things so seriously from the beginning of the abnormality. It must not be because of his kindness, but because of his identity.
He was from “another department”, the person Lao Yang had asked to help him find the God of Happiness.
Thinking of this, Xia Bai sat on the bed, hugging the document bag tightly in his arms, staring blankly at the door as if he had lost his soul.
"Please, how are we going to get back?" After hearing Hua Haoming's words, the father asked Hua Haoming with a smile on his face, cautiously and with a very good attitude.
It seemed that he believed it. He believed the game Hua Haoming talked about, and also believed that he was a person who came out of the game.
In the dim light, several people's eyes shifted to Hua Haoming, as if the hope of survival rested on him.
"You can leave after you finish the game."
It sounded simple to him, but everyone knew it wasn't that simple.
"What if, what if we can't make it through?"
"Then we will all really disappear, that is, die in the game, and then the dormitory will be sealed off to prevent other ordinary people from being drawn into the game."
They immediately understood why so many factories, amusement parks and restaurants had closed in the past two years, and it was not entirely due to poor management.
"How do we complete the game? Is there any strategy?" the father continued to ask.
Hua Haoming said: "Generally, games are related to the venue. We are in school, so this should be a game related to the school."
There is a slight bottom, but the range is too large.
"Some players named this game "Seeking Truth." Hua Haoming continued to generously give them the strategy guide.
"'Searching for the Truth'? Searching for the truth?" Wen Dong asked.
Hua Haoming nodded. "As far as I know, there are two types of maps in the game. One is the most common ordinary map, where most people are looking for the truth. The other is the rare special map, where there are many ways to play and no rules."
"That is to say, we are very likely to be in an ordinary map. In this case, we can leave the game as long as we find the so-called truth?" Song Qiang was a little excited and stretched his neck with anticipation.
Hua Haoming smiled, "Then you have to be able to hold on until you find the truth."
Thinking of the children Hua Haoming showed them who were being held by ghost hands and doing exercises, and the corpse dolls with real human heads in the horror house, the smile on Song Qiang's face began to fade.
"Also, don't resist NPCs in the game unless necessary, and play your role well when facing NPCs."
The others still had a lot of questions to ask, so Hua Haoming interrupted them after saying the most important thing: "We are now in the game lock state, which means that we cannot leave the dormitory and are about to start the game. The lock state will not last long, usually five to ten minutes. I suggest that you take advantage of this time to get ready and introduce yourself to each other."
No one disobeyed him, including the boy who had just questioned him. Everyone began to panic and look for protective and attacking tools.
Lin Xiang took this opportunity to put Xia Bai's snakeskin bag on bed number one. He was tall, and standing on the ground, he easily pulled off the sheets on bed number one and threw them on bed number four.
“…”
This time the boy didn't say anything. Perhaps his fear of the game exceeded his anger, and his mother was holding his hand and patting him to comfort him.
Lin Xiang snorted, speaking softly but not deliberately so that no one could hear him. "Xia Bai, this is the way to go. Don't let them think you're easy to bully."
After saying this, his voice became a little softer, "What if they think you are easy to bully and bully you in school? You are all studying medicine. What if they bully you and make you carry corpses every day?"
He said this to scare Xia Bai, wanting him to know the seriousness of the consequences. Who would have thought that after he finished speaking, he saw a small light gather in Xia Bai's eyes, which were often in a daze.
Lin Xiang: “?”
Xia Bai quickly went to look for his luggage bag, and Lin Xiang thought he was dazzled.
Two big snakeskin bags and a bulging schoolbag. Xia Bai's luggage was more than the other three people's because he brought everything he could. Although there were many things, they were all well organized.
He quickly took out a stack of yellow paper from his schoolbag and put it in his trouser pocket, then took out a fruit knife from his blue and white luggage bag and handed it to Lin Xiang, saying, "I'm sorry."
Lin Xiang knew why he apologized. If he hadn't come to see Xia Bai off, he wouldn't have been involved in this horror game. However, "I took the initiative to say I wanted to see you off. I wanted to see Heping Medical College."
He took the fruit knife, feeling touched, "Xia Bai, you gave me the only life-saving tool."
Xia Bai: "No, I still have some."
"You are always like this." Lin Xiang said with emotion and helplessness: "It's like you insisted that you didn't go to the cemetery on purpose to carry me out."
Hua Haoming stared at the strange talisman paper that appeared in Xia Bai's pocket: "..."
“Bang!”
The dull sound of slapping broke the warmth here. The father of bed number three slapped his son and pointed at his head, "Speak up and introduce yourself. Why are you still so silent and look like a loser?"
The son was silent for a few seconds before he stood up, turned around and faced them. He clasped his hands on the back of the chair and said with his head slightly lowered, "My name is Song Mingliang. I'm a dentist."
His father immediately said, "I am his father, Song Qiang. My son is just too honest and introverted. He is actually very smart and reliable."
Since they introduced themselves at the beginning, the boy in bed number two also said: "My name is Wen Dong, psychiatry. This is my sister, Wen Qiu."
The boy in bed number four didn't say anything, so her mother said, "This is my son, Meng Tianyou, a clinical medicine major."
Xia Bai followed up, "My name is Xia Bai, forensic medicine."
After hearing about his major, Meng Tianyou's mother frowned. Song Mingliang's father looked at Hua Haoming with a warm smile, "Is this your brother?"
Xia Bai: "Distant friend."
“…”
Lin Xiang took the initiative to introduce himself, "I'm Xia Bai's high school classmate, a good buddy, my name is Lin Xiang."
The self-introduction briefly alleviated the panic. After the introduction, the dormitory became quiet, and with the ticking of the clock, panic spread again.
Hua Haoming said that the lockdown time was generally only 5 to 10 minutes. When he said this, everyone else looked at the clock on the wall. Four minutes had already passed, not to mention that it had taken him some time to open the door and smash the window.
It's almost time.
Tick, tick, tick…
Song Qiang wiped the sweat from his forehead, and Meng Tianyou's legs were shaking faster and faster.
It was empty and silent outside, the only sound in the world was the ticking of clocks, which meant that they were getting closer and closer to the horror game, which was about to hit them.
“Da, da, da…”
In the corridor outside there came a sound approaching, like the sound of heavy heels hitting the floor.
They finally heard other sounds outside the dormitory, but this did not make them relax, but made them even more nervous.
The tapping sound stopped at the door of their dormitory.
Several people's hearts were in their throats.
"Knock, knock, knock." There were three knocks on the door, not too rude.
Several people were tense, no one stepped forward, and they held their breath and dared not speak.
Finally, Hua Haoming walked to the door, and the door that had been unable to be opened just now opened with a slight twist.
Several people in the dormitory were holding tools and staring at the door nervously.
Behind the door was a woman who looked to be in her fifties. Behind her, a boy hurriedly ran past with a basin of water. They crowded into the dormitory due to the noise in the corridor. It was a perfectly normal dormitory building. They seemed to have returned to the human world.
The moment the door opened and Xia Bai saw this scene, he heard a "ding dong" sound.
[The game has been loaded, and the normal map Peace Medical College is now online. ]
The sound did not come from somewhere in the dormitory, nor from outside the dormitory, it seemed to be ringing in my mind.
[When the Peace Medical College map was launched, you happened to be in the Peace Medical College dormitory. It must be a special fate. Welcome players to enter the Peace Medical College and enjoy the beautiful story of the Peace Medical College. I wish players a happy game. 】
"What a special fate." Lin Xiang cursed softly.
Judging from his reaction, he was probably not the only one who heard the voice.
"It's almost time to turn off the lights and go to bed, why don't you go back to your dorm?" The woman standing at the door should be the dormitory manager, but not the one they wanted to find just now.
When they entered the dormitory, they saw two dormitory managers in the hall, one with fair skin and the other slightly plump. The woman at the door had a skinny and sallow face, and her face was wrinkled like a paper face that had been beaten.
"Why are there two girls here? Girls live upstairs, don't come to the boys' floor casually!" said the dormitory manager with a frown.
They didn't know who should live in this dormitory, so they could only stand there nervously.
The dormitory manager was even more displeased, "Hua Haoming, Lin Xiang, and Song Qiang, go back to your 304! Wen Qiu and Meng Qing, go back to your 405!"
Now they all knew where they lived and understood their identities in this game: they were all students of Peace Medical College.
Hua Haoming took the lead, and the three men went to the dormitory 304 on the same floor. Wen Qiu and Meng Qing were a little late, mainly because Meng Qing looked at her son Meng Tianyou several times with reluctance and fear.
Seeing that they had gone to their respective places, the dormitory manager was satisfied and said, "Wash up and go to bed early. The lights will be turned off soon. Do not leave the dormitory after the lights are turned off, otherwise you will bear the consequences."
Normally, it should be around 6pm, when it was just beginning to get dark. But the dormitory manager said it was almost time to turn off the lights.
Xia Bai looked towards the corridor window and saw endless darkness.
The time on the clock on the dormitory wall also changed to 11:55 pm.
The walls of the dormitory became more dilapidated, with several crooked traces of water seepage, as did the bed on the floor.
Other than the first time, nothing else has changed, their stuff is still there.
After the dormitory manager left, the four freshmen who were supposed to live in this dormitory breathed a sigh of relief.
The dormitory manager just said that we should not leave the dormitory after the lights are turned off. Now the lights are still on, so we should be able to leave the dormitory. Taking advantage of this time, the four of them walked to the door and looked outside.
When the dormitory manager called everyone back to sleep, the footsteps in the corridor were hurried, and they didn't know which dormitory was making noises. They even heard two boys passing by and discussing anatomy class in pain. It looked like a normal university dormitory.
But it’s not their real college dormitory.
If everyone in the entire dormitory building was involved in the game, there wouldn't be any noise; it should be because the dormitory doors were tightly closed.
So this really seems weird.
Wen Dong asked: "Song Mingliang, you came the earliest. Do you see any familiar faces among these people?"
This is their first day of college enrollment. They don’t know most of their classmates and wonder if these are their real classmates. They can only ask the person who arrived the earliest and stayed in the dormitory the longest whether he has seen them.
Before Song Mingliang could speak, Meng Tianyou said, "He keeps his head down. Where is he going to see his classmates?"
Song Mingliang turned his head and looked over. He didn't lower his head like his father did when he was around. Instead, he looked directly into other people's eyes and spoke in a moderate voice with clear pronunciation: "I haven't seen many of them. I can't tell."
They wanted to watch for a while longer, but the lights in the dormitory and the corridor suddenly went out.
The four of them almost simultaneously took a step back and returned to the dormitory, while Wen Dong quickly closed the door.
There is no moon tonight and the dormitory is pitch dark.
I couldn't see each other's faces clearly, but I could hear their breathing was a little rapid because of the rush just now.
Xia Bai stood there for a while, took out his cell phone and found that it was still usable. He shone a little light with his cell phone and returned to his bed number one.
Wen Dong also returned to bed number two, followed by Song Mingliang who returned to bed number three. Meng Tianyou stood there for more than ten seconds. His expression could not be seen clearly in the darkness, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Beds one and two were by the window. Wen Dong saw Xia Bai was about to climb onto the bed and said, "Let's draw the curtains. Who knows if we look up at night and see a ghost sticking to the window and watching us."
In the darkness, Meng Tianyou didn't see their movements and thought that the "we" Wen Dong was referring to were the four people in their dormitory and he was asking them.
"I don't sleep by the window." He said sarcastically.
"Yes! You don't sleep by the window, you sleep by the toilet, then you have to guard the toilet door, don't let ghosts crawl from the toilet to your bed at night!" Wen Dong had had enough and choked back, "I know that in this kind of unknown horror game, we have no experience, we will be anxious and panic, and anxiety and panic will make us irritable, but we are not your mother!"
Xia Bai had already drawn the curtains.
Song Mingliang didn't make any movement from beginning to end.
Meng Tianyou did not respond to Wen Dong's words, but he made the bed with a lot of noise.
Wen Dong didn't say anything when he saw this. He went to bed wearing a blindfold and a pair of scissors.
After Xia Bai made the bed, he took out the family tree from the file bag, held it in his arms, and lay down quietly.
The dormitory was suddenly very quiet, but no one was asleep.
Today is the day for them to report for school. They all came with joy to come to this school they have longed to attend for a long time.
They finally got into this century-old prestigious school as they wished and lived in the dormitory they had imagined.
However, it was here that they were drawn into a horror game of life and death, or to put it more exaggeratedly, it was like walking into heaven and arriving in hell.
Wen Dong was right. Maybe they were the chosen ones in the eyes of some people, but they just had no experience. They had been studying hard in school and had never entered the society. Who could sleep well facing the unknown night and the pressure of death?
Xia Bai held the family tree, feeling sad and tense with them for a while, and his eyelids gradually closed.
Thick darkness enveloped this old school. The darkness seemed to be filled with a lot of tides, which clung to people in a wet and sticky way, making those who were sleeping feel like they were drowning.
