71 Castle 9
◎Hidden branch◎
Sang Mian stroked his chin and said, "Given my relationship with her, it shouldn't be difficult to find her."
Xia Qing tilted her head and asked in confusion, "Sister Sang, when did you become friends with Xiao Hong?"
"Didn't I tell you?" Sang Mian blinked, "Before, in order to avoid Lou Cangyue, I happened to hide in Xiao Hongzang's room. We hit it off right away."
Bai Tang: "It feels like old acquaintance at first sight? Isn't this someone you know again?"
"That's not the case." Sang Mian was silent for a moment.
Xia Qing: "Why?"
Sang Mian thought that if it weren't for the Heart-breaking Card, Xiaohong would have packed her up and sent her to Su Cheng long ago. But since Xiaohong wanted to use her as a shield, she would definitely find a chance to catch her.
"Xiaoqing, don't ask me yet. Anyway, I have a way to lure Xiaohong out." Sang Mian changed the subject unnaturally: "The most difficult thing is how to get Xiaohong to cooperate during the treatment."
Jiang Jing raised her hand and said, "Is it okay to control it by force?"
Sang Mian: "It should be possible."
Jiang Jing: "My identity skill can control weirdness for ten minutes, but the cooldown time is very long."
"So we only have one chance." Sang Mian said seriously, "We can only succeed and not fail."
Jiang Jing nodded: "Yes."
Sang Mian: "So what are your identity skills?"
Jiang Jing laughed dryly twice, then leaned over to whisper in Sang Mian's ear.
Sang Mian's eyes widened, "There is such a skill?"
At eight o'clock in the morning, Sang Mian held a morning meeting for the weird cleaners and assigned them the next cleaning tasks. Today, the weird cleaners were particularly obedient and went to work very consciously.
Another hour later, the doorbell of the castle rang. Sang Mian and his group were cautious and did not open the door. Instead, they observed through the peephole for a while.
After all, there was the precedent of Lou Zangyue, and no one wanted to experience yesterday's accident again.
After a while, the person outside the door began to get impatient.
"Director, can you open the door or not?" yelled the psychiatrist in a black coat.
Sang Mian narrowed his eyes: "Are you here alone?"
The psychiatrist rolled his eyes, "Who else?" Ever since his love for wearing Hello Kitty pajamas was exposed, all the doctors in the hospital laughed at him, making him too embarrassed to face anyone! So he hated the dean so much!
Sang Mian: "Is there anyone else around you?"
The psychiatrist looked around unhappily: "No!"
After saying that, the heavy door of the castle opened a crack, and a pair of delicate white hands quickly pulled the psychiatrist in.
Before the doctor could react, he was in the castle, surrounded by six players.
Bai Tang greeted him with a smile: "Long time no see, how have you been recently?"
Xia Qingxie smiled and touched his chin, looking wretched: "Is this the doctor who loves to wear Hello Kitty? I can't tell."
The doctor was furious: "Who told you that I love wearing Hello Kitty?"
Sang Mian looked innocent: "Isn't it?"
Jiang Jing, Zeng Fan and Gao Shuo were much more normal, but their eyes were full of surprise. The person in front of them was a doctor from the weird hospital! Sang Mian called over with a phone call! In their minds, Sang Mian was no longer a big boss, but a giant boss!
The psychiatrist was about to lose his temper, but he was stunned after seeing Sang Mian. It had only been a short time and yet the dean's strength had increased so much. This was not the way he could grow by eating feed!
Sang Mian took a step forward gently: "You look unhappy?"
"No way." The doctor was like an eggplant hit by frost, and then he forced a flattering smile: "So it was the dear dean who said that! You are right, I love wearing Hello Kitty pajamas!"
"That's good. I'll give you ten sets of pajamas after you cure Xiaohong!" Sang Mian patted his chest generously: "How about it, do you like it?"
The doctor gritted his teeth and said, "I like it. I like it very much."
Jiang Jing and the other two looked at each other. How did Sang Mian know what kind of pajamas others liked?
The three of them all raised their lips at the same time. Did something happen between Sang Mian and the strange doctor? Not only did he know what kind of pajamas she liked, but he also gave her pajamas. Their relationship was almost exposed.
Zeng Fan said, "I understand." "I didn't expect you would like this."
Sang Mian: “?”
Seeing the three people's frivolous expressions, Sang Mian quickly asked, "Did you misunderstand something?"
Gao Shuo waved his hand: "No need to explain, explanation is just covering up!"
Jiang Jing made a zipper-like motion: "Don't worry, we are very tight-lipped."
"......" Sang Mian opened his mouth to explain, but he didn't know where to start. In the end, he could only say weakly: "I am the director of the Third Weird Hospital. It's normal for me to know the preferences of my subordinates, right?"
The three of them said in unison: "Normal! Too normal!"
Sang Mian: “…” Their expressions showed total disbelief.
Bai Tang suppressed his laughter: "Okay, the psychiatrists are here, we can start looking for Xiao Hong."
According to Sang Mian's analysis, the place where Xiao Hong is least likely to appear is the first floor of the castle, because there are too many people on the first floor and she will be exposed if she is not careful. The ninth floor is where Su Cheng lives, so the key areas to be checked are from the second to the eighth floors.
If Xiao Hong wants to take the initiative, there must not be too many people around her. Sang Mian thought for a moment and said, "The doctor and Jiang Jing will follow me, and the others should stay put."
Bai Tang: "Are you sure?"
Sang Mian blinked: "Believe me."
Half an hour later, a panicked woman appeared on the second floor of the castle, knocking frantically on every door.
"Please save me! Open the door and let me in."
"Sister, are you still here? Didn't you ask me to forgive you? I have decided to forgive you now. Let's go forward and retreat together."
"Xiao Hong! Xiao Hong, I forgive you! Please save me!"
Jiang Jing and the psychiatrist watched behind her for half an hour. They followed her from the second floor to the fourth floor. Jiang Jing doubted, "Will Sang Mian's behavior work?"
The psychiatrist rubbed his chin and said, "To be honest, I think she should come to me to have a look at her head. Don't you think it's abnormal for her to be like this?"
Jiang Jing tilted her head: "Is it okay for you to question your dean like this?"
The psychiatrist shrugged: "She doesn't know anyway."
Jiang Jing: "I'll go and file a complaint now."
"Don't." The psychiatrist was shocked. "How can you be like this? You don't have any sense of confidentiality between friends."
Jiang Jing rolled her eyes at him: "Did you get the wrong person? Are we friends?"
"..."Psychiatrist: "You can't say that..."
Jiang Jing covered his mouth with her hand, "Don't make noise, there seems to be a sound of a door opening."
Xiaohong poked her head out of a door in her wedding dress: "Stop yelling! Are you trying to attract Su Cheng over here?"
Sang Mian looked at Xiao Hong with tears in her eyes: "Dear eldest sister, I forgive you."
"Forgive your head!" Xiaohong grabbed a handful of hair irritably. She didn't know why she wanted Sang Mian's forgiveness. She had done nothing wrong, but now when she thought about it, it was as if she was possessed by a ghost.
She couldn't figure out the reason, so she could only swear at Sang Mian fiercely: "What on earth did you do to me that day!" Sang Mian said sincerely: "I didn't do anything, you are just too kind."
After living for so many years, this was the first time that Xiao Hong was called kind. She pointed at Sang Mian with a trembling hand and said, "You don't want to say that, right? I'll send you to Su Cheng right now!"
She held the white wedding dress in one hand and pounced towards Sang Mian with the other hand showing her bright red nails.
Extreme anger accompanied by a strange aura rushed towards her. Sang Mian covered her face in fear and said in a pretentious voice: "Sister, don't be like this. Unkind people will be punished!"
Xiao Hong sneered: "I want to see what the retribution is."
Sang Mian answered seriously: "The retribution is to turn into a puppy!"
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Xiaohong's ferocious face cracked for a moment. How dare they use the tricks they used to fool three-year-old children on her? She angrily said, "I want to see how I turn into a puppy!"
Sang Mian sighed helplessly: "This is your own choice. I have reminded you."
When Xiao Hong's hand was just one millimeter away from pinching Sang Mian's neck, Sang Mian yelled, "Jiang Jing! Quick!"
Jiang Jing flashed out from the corner and used her identity skill at the fastest speed.
Xiaohong's hand stopped in mid-air before she figured out the situation. She seemed to sense something and started cursing Sang Mian madly. Before she could finish two words, her face became dull and she stood there as if her computer was frozen. After a minute, her dark eyes rolled around randomly and stopped when she saw Jiang Jing behind Sang Mian.
Sang Mian held her breath and was ready to take out her two-meter-long Qinglong Yanyue Sword at any time to prevent Xiaohong's sudden attack.
The air seemed to freeze.
Sang Mian choked on her saliva. Did Jiang Jing fail to use her identity skill? Her heart sank as she slowly grasped the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade in her palm.
Suddenly, the sound of a dog barking reached the ears of the three people.
“Woof woof woof!”
“Woof woof woof!”
Xiaohong excitedly yelled at Jiang Jing, then quickly ran to Jiang Jing and rubbed her head against Jiang Jing's clothes. During this time, she kept looking at Jiang Jing with a flattering look, as if she wanted to be patted on the head and praised.
"?" Sang Mian was shocked. Jiang Jing had told her that skills were related to dogs, and she had also imagined Jiang Jing's skills, but she never expected that Xiao Hong's speech would turn into a dog's barking.
“Woof woof woof!”
Jiang Jing pushed Xiao Hong away with difficulty, "Don't move!"
Xiaohong immediately stood up straight.
Jiang Jing coughed twice: "Just keep it like this."
Xiaohong rubbed Jiang Jing's hand with her head again, and then barked twice to show that she was obedient.
The psychiatrist adjusted his glasses. Who can tell him what's going on? Why did a normal person suddenly turn into a dog?
Sang Mian thought that Jiang Jing's identity skills were really powerful. Although it was only ten minutes, he had defeated 99% of the players.
After recovering from the shock, she remembered that Jiang Jing's skill only lasted ten minutes. Sang Mian pointed at Xiao Hong and said to the psychiatrist, "Hurry up and treat her."
The psychiatrist looked at Xiaohong and then at her in embarrassment: "What to treat? Turn her from a dog into a normal person?" He didn't say it would be so difficult when he came. Isn't this just making things difficult for him!
Sang Mian gritted his teeth and said, "It's to cure her amnesia! You only have eight minutes."
The psychiatrist nodded hurriedly, then took out a series of instruments that Sang Mian had never seen before from the tool box he carried with him.
He examined Xiaohong's head as quickly as possible, and then it suddenly dawned on him, "So that's how it is." The psychiatrist took out a long, silver stick and inserted it into Xiaohong's left ear.
Xiaohong felt extremely uncomfortable and wanted to shake her head to throw the thing away.
Jiang Jing said with a straight face: "Don't move, be obedient."
Xiaohong cried out twice in grievance and then really obediently stopped moving.
The psychiatrist used the thin stick to move it up and down and left and right inside Xiaohong's head, and then he freed his hand and took out a hammer.
The scene was too bloody, so Sang Mian looked away and silently calculated the end time of the skill. At the last minute, the doctor breathed a sigh of relief: "It's done."
Sang Mian turned around: "Huh? So fast?"
The psychiatrist raised his head proudly: "I am the ace doctor of our hospital."
Sang Mian focused all his attention on Xiao Hong, and said perfunctorily, "Okay, I'll give you an extra set of Hello Kitty pajamas as a reward."
Psychiatrist: “…” Damn! Can we skip this topic?
Xiaohong stopped barking and her expression became even more dull than before. Sang Mian moved closer to Xiaohong, but she still didn't move. She frowned and said, "How come she can't even speak? Did you make her stupid?"
If Xiaohong was really made stupid by the treatment, Su Cheng would definitely kill her. Sang Mian glanced at Xiaohong guiltily. If that happened, she would drag the doctor down with her.
The psychiatrist rolled his eyes: "Even weirdness needs time to recover. Give her a day to rest."
Sang Mian patted her chest and said, "You scared me to death." She threatened coldly, "If you really become stupid, just wait and see how I deal with you."
The psychiatrist was angry: "You can question my character, but you can't question my professional skills!"
Sang Mian felt relieved after hearing the doctor's assurance. The three of them looked at Xiaohong and each other in confusion.
Jiang Jing was worried: "What should we do next? We can't just leave her here."
Sang Mian: "As the successors of socialism, adhering to the ideology and morality of helping others, we should settle her down."
The doctor raised his hand and said, "Wait, I am a qualified dead person, not a successor to socialism."
Sang Mian and Jiang Jing stared at the doctor and smiled at the same time.
"You may be dead, but your will lives forever."
Back in the lobby on the first floor, Sang Mian and Jiang Jing greeted everyone with a smile.
Bai Tang: "Is Xiaohong's treatment complete?"
Sang Mian pointed behind her and said, "Of course. My strength is beyond doubt."
The psychiatrist grimaced as he carried Xiaohong on his back. For a monster who could only hold a scalpel, the weight of an adult monster was already his limit.
Free labor - The doctor laid Xiao Hong flat on the big bed. He glared at Sang Mian with resentment: "Are you satisfied?"
Sang Mian said cheerfully, "Satisfied, your work is done, you can leave now."
The doctor turned around and walked away. He didn't want to see the dean again. Halfway through his walk, he stopped again and said, "I want a pay raise for outpatient services!"
No one paid any attention to him, and everyone gathered around Xiaohong.
Xia Qing lay on the head of Xiaohong's bed and waved his hand in front of Xiaohong's eyes: "What happened to Sister Sang? Are you sure she's cured?"
Sang Mian: "He said he needed time to recover. I'm the dean, he wouldn't dare lie to me."
"That's good." Xia Qing frowned: "Looking at it this way, Xiaohong feels so pitiful. They could have been together for life, but..."
Xia Qing didn't continue speaking. Everyone felt a little sad when they saw Xiaohong's pretty face.
Bai Tang sighed: "It's God's will, maybe this is fate."
Just when everyone was feeling sad for Xiaohong, the system's prompt sounded in everyone's mind.
