Chapter 122 Deep Affection for Yueyue
Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the patient's outburst, Zhou Jin, Su Ye, and Meng Huan managed to sneak into the archives room.
Generally speaking, archives usually contain important clues in copies.
After they carefully entered, they began searching inside.
The entire archive room was pitch black, and they didn't dare turn on the lights, so they just shone flashlights around inside.
The archives weren't particularly large; three walls were lined with bookshelves filled with identical folders. Finding crucial clues inside was like searching for a needle in a haystack.
"This is a huge project," Su Ye clicked her tongue, shining a flashlight on a wall.
"Let's take our time and see. We'll each take charge of one side, Su Ye on the left and Meng Huan on the right," Zhou Jin calmly arranged.
Originally, there were several players in their group, but they were all separated during the patient's madness, and now there are only the three of them.
Su Ye nodded quickly, and Meng Huan also replied listlessly, "Yes."
Su Ye noticed that Meng Huan's mood was off and turned to ask her for help, but when she shone the flashlight on her, she seemed to see a flash of red light in Meng Huan's eyes.
She was startled and almost dropped the flashlight.
When they looked at her again, Meng Huan looked the same as usual, only her face and lips were paler than before.
That's just scaring yourself!
Su Ye breathed a sigh of relief, convinced that she had misread the situation, and then asked with concern, "What's wrong, Meng Huan? Were you frightened just now? Or were you injured by the patient?"
"It's nothing." Meng Huan shook her head. Her voice sounded weaker than usual, making it hard to hear her tone. "I'm just too tired."
Su Ye felt that since she and Meng Huan were both girls, they should look after each other. Hearing this, she lowered her voice and comforted her, "It's good that you're alright. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, be sure to tell me."
Just then, they heard a faint clicking sound coming from the doorway.
The three of them exchanged a glance and quickly turned off their flashlights.
They held their breath, staring intently at the doorway.
Could it be that something strange has discovered it?
But aren't they dealing with those crazy patients right now?
Moreover, they were able to get in by secretly obtaining the key, and they locked the door after they came in...
Several more clicking sounds came from the doorway. Just as Zhou Jin had drawn his weapon and was about to attack, the door was pushed open—
A deathly pale face appeared before the three of them.
The flashlight beam shone on his face, revealing his empty eye sockets.
Without hesitation, Zhou Jin swung his knife forward.
But it was firmly held by a hand.
A woman's voice, tinged with laughter, came from the terrifying face in front of her: "Um, even if I snuck in, you don't have to welcome me like this, do you?"
At the same time, the light on that face flickered and was moved aside, finally allowing the three of them to see Jiang Liyue's beautiful face.
"master?!"
"Miss Jiang?"
"Boss!"
The three of them exclaimed in surprise at the same time, and breathed a sigh of relief.
[Haha, this scene is so familiar!]
[The classic "More Terrifying Than the Uncanny" series]
[I always said my wife, Yueyue, has a real talent for being weird. Is there anyone who can turn their wife into a weirdo and join us?]
I second that; I really need a weird version of Yueyue.
Is it possible that even if Yueyue becomes a monster, she will never belong to you?
Jiang Liyue was completely oblivious to the fact that she had frightened people.
After she pulled Ji Yuan into the archives and closed the door, Su Ye curiously approached and asked, "Master, it's you! How did you get in?"
Jiang Liyue shook the wire in her hand: "It's nothing, just a little talent."
If she can't kick the door, she'll pick the lock; she won't look for the key anyway. Jiang Liyue says she's just naturally rebellious.
"A little talent?"
You call picking locks a minor skill?
Su Ye looked at her with admiration: "Master, you are amazing."
"No problem." Jiang Liyue waved her hand, but Ji Yuan reached out and tugged at her other hand.
He noticed that Jiang Liyue's attention was being drawn to someone else for a long time, so he unhappily wanted her attention.
Jiang Liyue truly felt like she had raised a puppy.
She reached out and ruffled his hair, and only when he comfortably squinted his eyes did she say, "Be good."
Ji Yuan stared at her expectantly, looking very obedient.
“Miss Jiang, this is…” Zhou Jin asked tentatively.
They had noticed Ji Yuan's presence as soon as Jiang Liyue entered.
He was wearing a hospital gown, expressionless, and pale, clearly a patient.
For players, patients, like doctors, are NPCs who are on the opposite side of them in the dungeon and are meant to be devoured.
Seeing Jiang Liyue, looking so fresh and beautiful, leading a patient in, it was hard not to feel a little uneasy.
“He’s my boyfriend,” Jiang Liyue blurted out.
Under the shocked gazes of the three, she sighed: "Actually, he is also a player. He just came in when the Happiness Sanatorium opened last time. As a result, he got into trouble and got trapped in the dungeon. I came here mainly to rescue him this time."
"I never expected that when I found him, he would have become like this."
"But it's okay, he seems to vaguely remember my scent. No matter what, he's still my boyfriend."
Jiang Liyue spoke with such sincerity that Su Ye was so moved she almost cried: "So touching! I never imagined you, Master, would love your boyfriend so much."
"Is there any hope for my ex-boyfriend?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Liyue paused: "Ouyang Chen? What happened to him?"
"He was fired because the head nurse found out he was violating regulations. He couldn't become a nurse anymore, so he became a patient." Zhou Jin obviously knew about this as well, explaining, "That's what they call being fired."
"Actually, I could have gone and brought him back," Su Ye said, her eyes brimming with tears.
Jiang Liyue quickly stopped her: "No, you can't."
Su Ye, who is already a cannon fodder character, is a bit love-struck. Will her acting in this scene reawaken her love-struck mind?
“Have you forgotten? He’s your nemesis.” Jiang Liyue said seriously. “If you take him with you, you’ll die. But my boyfriend is different; he brings me good fortune.”
"Is that so?" Su Ye suddenly realized.
A bizarre ex-boyfriend is certainly not as important as her life, so Su Ye immediately dismissed the idea.
Only Zhou Jin looked at Jiang Liyue with a puzzled expression, not really believing that she could tell fortunes.
Could she be giving herself a reason to bring her boyfriend along?
How pitiful!
Zhou Jin couldn't help but feel a little emotional; it turns out there is true love in games too.
Although Jiang Liyue didn't know what Zhou Jin was imagining, she could feel the affection in his eyes.
Her performance in this play seemed pretty good?
Meanwhile, the live stream chat was in stitches.
[Hahaha, my weird boyfriend is a monster!]
How does Yueyue manage to act out such an awkward scene without laughing?
[I can't really criticize her, after all, Yueyue is a genuine actress.]
