When they reached the top of the stairs, the flashlight shone on a large red letter 6 on the wall at the corner. Qin Nuo murmured, "We're on the sixth floor."
Several people stood in the long corridor. The wards on the sixth floor were different from those on the lower floors. The doors were all iron doors locked with iron chains, with only one barred window showing through.
Rather than a patient ward, it feels more like a prison cell.
"It seems that all the disobedient patients are locked up here."
Qin Nuo shone the flashlight down, but couldn't see the end of the corridor. It was obvious that the corridor was very long.
The trouble is that all the room numbers are shuffled, so it takes some effort to find room 601.
In addition, on one side of the corridor, there were several wooden boxes. Just like the ones seen before, they were empty and there were no so-called patients imprisoned inside.
But when placed there, it looks like a wooden coffin, giving people a vague sense of horror.
"Take your time to look for it. As long as it's not room 601, don't bother with it and don't cause yourself trouble." Shanhe said.
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a bang.
This was followed by a crunching sound.
An iron door slowly opened...
While Qin Nuo and the others were still in shock, a round skull rolled out from the dark room. When they shone the flashlight on the skull, they saw bloodstains and some flesh stuck to it.
A figure walked out of the room. He was wearing a severely faded hospital gown, with dry hair and an untidy beard. His entire face was buried in hair, his hands and feet were rough, and he was holding a long and sharp boning knife.
He picked up the skull on the ground and muttered, "Don't run around..."
“It’s not over yet.”
The light shone on the man, and Shanhe immediately turned it off and knocked the flashlight out of Kong Yu's hand.
The sloppy man paused, obviously noticing Qin Nuo and the others, but ignored them, turned around and slowly returned to his room.
Qin Nuo glanced at the room number. Shanhe spoke only after the iron door was closed, full of confusion: "What's going on? Aren't all the patients detained? Why was he able to get out?"
"He didn't cause us any trouble, so just ignore him."
Xiaocheng said casually and walked forward.
The four continued walking deeper into the corridor, paying attention to the numbers on the rooms on either side, but soon, they hit a wall and reached a dead end.
In the end...
Qin Nuo turned around and asked: "Did you find room 601?"
"No, logically, how could four people with eight eyes not find it?" Shange was confused.
"There might be a secret passage, or the numbers might have been tampered with, or there might not even be a room called 601."
Xiaocheng spoke softly.
At this time, the game's warning sound rang in Shanhe's mind again. The plot death point disturbed her mood, and coupled with the pain in her right hand, she began to feel a little depressed.
Kong Yu looked around blankly and asked, "What should we do now?"
Qin Nuo was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Maybe we can ask someone."
"You mean the patient who just walked out?" Shanhe immediately guessed what Qin Nuo was thinking.
"His room number is 613." Qin Nuo smiled slightly.
"Liuzi, are you crazy? The trouble didn't come to you, but you took the initiative to go to him?" Kong Yu held his head in his hands, unable to understand.
"This is indeed too risky." Shanhe also felt that it was inappropriate.
"Wealth and honor are sought in danger. I think he looks like a good guy."
"Many NPCs in games are indeed dangerous, but if you build a good relationship with them and avoid their potential dangers, you can coexist harmoniously."
Qin Nuo said that he had plenty of experience, all accumulated from previous copies.
"I won't go in." Shanhe said.
She felt that something would definitely happen if she went in. Maybe the plot's death point would be in that ward.
The game kept warning her, making her nerves particularly sensitive.
"Of course, it's your freedom."
Qin Nuo took the camera and started walking back.
Soon, we found the ward.
Qin Nuo wanted to knock on the door, but he just pushed it open.
Looking into the complete darkness inside, one feels a strong sense of panic.
But Qin Nuo remained calm and composed, and asked, "Who wants to follow me in?"
"I... I'll follow Liuzi." Kong Yu said. Although he was afraid, he obviously felt that it was safer to follow Qin Nuo.
Qin Nuo looked at Kong Yu, his eyes flickering a few times, and he smiled slightly, "You are indeed a good brother."
"I'll wait for you outside." Shanhe said with a frown.
Qin Nuo nodded, looked at Shanhe's expression, and said meaningfully, "Then you'd better wait at the door and don't wander around."
After saying that, Qin Nuo walked into Ward 613 with a flashlight.
Kong Yu followed closely behind.
As the two figures disappeared into the darkness, the iron door slammed shut.
Shanhe murmured, "I feel like they can't get out."
Xiao Cheng, who was standing behind him, adjusted his glasses and said slowly, "You have too little experience and are too self-righteous. It's only a matter of time before you're eliminated."
"You just said that you eliminated the plot death point. How did you do that?" Shanhe asked, turning around.
Xiao Cheng said with a relaxed expression, "I figured it out. This thing has some logic."
"Instead of waiting here meaninglessly, just follow me."
Shanhe asked with a hint of suspicion: "Why are you helping me?"
"It doesn't seem to benefit you much."
"You're wrong. If there's no benefit, I won't bother with this."
Xiao Cheng put one hand in his pocket and said, "The main mission cannot be completed by one person."
"We're all in this together, so we can only help each other. But now that Lao Mu's life or death is uncertain, I have to choose a smart teammate to help."
He glanced at the ward and said, "Compared to that fool who walked into a trap and courted death, I'm more optimistic about you as a teammate."
"Let's go, I'll help you eliminate the plot death point. We have to find that girl Ai as soon as possible!"
As he spoke, Xiaocheng turned around and walked towards the corridor.
Shanhe stood in front of Room 613, feeling a little hesitant.
The game's warning sound continued to sound, becoming more and more urgent, as if constantly urging her.
After a struggle, Shanhe left Ward 613 and followed Xiaocheng, supporting him despite his limited mobility: "Then hurry up!"
Xiao Cheng looked at Shange and smiled: "Smart people often make rational choices..."
