Chapter 169 You're Not That Stupid
After entering the nurses' station, Lin Xi couldn't see what was happening.
But she would know after a while, because the anchor nurse at the fourth-floor nurse station had already awakened and would definitely answer her later. After waiting for about two minutes, Lin Xi rang the bell in the room. Moments later, the anchor rushed into Lin Xi's room.
She was not in good condition, her face was pale, and she looked not much different from the dead Shen Sangning.
Furthermore, the corners of her nurse's cap were soaked with sweat, her mouth was pale and trembling slightly. Lin Xi and Shen Sangning exchanged a glance, and Shen Sangning spoke first, "Breathe first. Inhale, exhale..." Only as Shen Sangning spoke did the nurse slowly regain her rhythm.
Shen Sang Ning has basically returned to normal now. After a few days of digestion, the 300,000 brought by the funeral home owner has made Shen Sang Ning smart again.
After the patient's breathing calmed down, the nurse host said, "They, the other nurses in the nurses' station, ate that ghost! They dragged it in and cut it up like pork, then devoured it with relish. That patient was also a ghost; there was no blood, but it was alive... No, not alive, but it had its own thoughts. Its bones twisted, and those nurses didn't care, but they just stuffed it into their mouths!"
As if recalling the scene she had just witnessed, the nurse's face paled even further. This caused the comments in Lin Xi's livestream to surge rapidly:
[Ugh, please don't tell me, I shouldn't have come to your livestream just out of curiosity...]
[Just got back from there. I didn't expect Sister Xi to call someone back for questioning. Seriously... the description is quite vivid. It reminds me of it again...]
[Previously, if a streamer was attacked, the screen would go black. Now, when the attack is on a ghost streamer, the screen doesn't go black, but instead the live stream continues. Having an R-rated rating isn't such a bad thing after all. I'd be worried if my kids saw something like this.]
Lin Xi calmed down and began to analyze the situation to Shen Sangning, "Ningning, I think it's probably because a lot of time has passed. Just like in the previous dungeons, as time goes by, the ghosts' methods of scaring people will become more advanced, and this dungeon is no different. It was so peaceful before, but now they feel like they can't pretend anymore and are showing their cards. That's why they are acting so aggressively, even attacking patients who are also ghosts."
Shen Sangning, who had normal intelligence, nodded and agreed with Lin Xi: “Lin Xi, you are right, that’s it.”
Hearing Lin Xi's words, the nurse anchor became nervous: "Then, what should I do? I have been with them all the time. If I accidentally trigger the rules, I will die!"
Lin Xi turned to look at her and spoke frankly, "We're all on the fourth floor. Normally, I wouldn't stand by and watch you get into danger. But I can only protect you temporarily, not forever. You know, I still have a lot of things to do. So the most important thing right now is to follow the rules and not trigger anything."
Hearing Lin Xi's promise not to leave her in vain, the nurse anchor breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. Then, the ringing of the bell rang again, and the nurse anchor shuddered. One of the nurses' rules was that ringing bells must be handled promptly and not allowed to ring for more than a minute.
Soon, a nurse responded, and the ringing went off. Lin Xi continued, "It's not just the nurses who are facing a surge in threat; the patients are certainly experiencing the same surge. While you're at the nurses' station, read their medical records to learn what their illnesses are and what their key points are. Try not to trigger their rules. If something unexpected happens, rush out of their room and into the hallway. As long as there are nurses in the nurses' station, don't go in; let another nurse go. When there are no more nurses, then you can go out yourself."
In fact, she understood everything Lin Xi said, but she was too nervous at the moment and couldn't think clearly.
The nurse anchor nodded and stayed in Lin Xi's room for a while before returning to the nurses' station. Most anchors had already received the real-world SC. Such crucial information would definitely not be hidden by the authorities. Almost all the domestic anchors had already used up one SC to wake up other anchors. Now another one was used, leaving only one SC available.
Lin Xi is the same in this regard. She only has one chance left.
Lin Xi decided to go out for a walk to see if she could save the anchor from her predicament. As soon as she stepped outside, she saw Robert. Robert had a clear goal: to find her. Lin Xi didn't have much to say to Robert, but the fact that he was looking for her piqued her curiosity, so she followed him to the tea room.
"You're going to escape after the lights go out on the 30th day? Why don't you inform the anchors in other countries of this news?" Looking at his expression, it was almost as if his face was denouncing them for being "too narrow-minded."
Lin Xi looked at him for a moment. She hadn't expected him to be so brazen, and she almost laughed. Lin Xi said directly, "Tell other national broadcasters? Have the other broadcasters awakened yet? You might as well just ask me why I'm not taking you with me."
His visit had revealed some information, including news he'd received from the real world. In the past few days, especially during his initial awakening, it was impossible for anyone in the real world to send him SCs. The idea of running together was only revealed yesterday. Previously, when Lin Xi had spoken to his people, he'd kept it quiet, so the outsiders couldn't hear.
In other words, she had to tell Sun Kege that Sun Kege was a ghost. She wouldn't get too close to her, so she just said it directly. This was spotted by Robert's team and sent to Robert. It was fast enough. That means his team sent him at least two SCs, and he only had one left.
Lin Xi really didn't expect Robert to be so stupid. Instead of figuring out the reason himself, he came to her to ask.
She had originally thought the Adventist leader would be a sinister person, like a snake lurking in caves waiting for prey, or perhaps as cunning as a fox. But after actually getting to know him, even after only meeting him two or three times, Lin Xi realized he was utterly stupid.
Lin Xi felt that he was not a smart person, but he would use his brain when necessary, but Robert did not use his brain at all. This made Lin Xi doubt whether Robert was the leader of the Advent Sect.
Her expression was so obvious that even the audience in the live broadcast room could see it.
They laughed loudly in the live broadcast room:
[I am dying of laughter. Sister Xi's eyes are too straightforward. Very good, now I am beginning to doubt it too.]
[To be honest with Sister Xi, I've long felt that he wasn't the right person. He's too crazy and too stupid.]
[There are people from abroad lurking in our livestream room. Is there any moderator who can block all foreign IP addresses?]
[Not only are there people from abroad, but there are also live broadcast rooms on the foreign Twitter accounts that broadcast Xijie's live broadcasts, with subtitles from various countries. Just go out and take a look and you'll be amazed. ]
Netizens all noticed Lin Xi's expression, and Cai Hua certainly didn't miss it either. Even before the livestream began, the team had already begun searching for information on the streamers. When she saw Robert, Cai Hua was stunned. Unlike cult leaders in China, who must remain hidden and face potential execution if discovered, cults abroad are quite brazen.
Robert frequently appears in foreign media, urging people not to resist the rules and strange talk. This is a punishment from the gods for polluting the world, and people should not resist but accept it sincerely.
Not only did they see his face, but the staff back home had already gathered all his information. He was the owner of a media company and had considerable wealth. But he was still upper-middle class, still a long way from the upper echelons of American society. I don't know how he suddenly came up with the idea of starting an Adventist sect.
As a result, they hit it off with some psychopaths in the upper echelons, and immediately began to develop a sect and make money crazily.
Unlike what many people think, he is a smart guy. He is just an asshole who had a crooked idea and got the opportunity to develop.
Of course, there are some capable guys among his subordinates, but because of their poor birth, they cannot be favored by those above them. Although they are unwilling, they can only let Robert, a scorpion, wear golden clothes and occupy a better position than them. The development of the Advent Sect is very rapid, and even bribed people in high positions. Otherwise, they can't command Alan Jones at all.
Robert must have been very proud of himself before, and he might even toasted the Rules and Stories with champagne. If it weren't for the Rules and Stories Live App, he wouldn't have been able to squeeze into the real upper class.
Caihua had been incredibly sarcastic about Robert, even calling him a jerk. But when she saw Robert's face in the livestream, she was surprised, then delighted. Didn't Robert advocate for not resisting the rules? Now that he was in, she wanted to see if he could still maintain his sanctimonious demeanor.
"Teacher, you are in a good mood."
Cai Hua took out her notebook and knocked on Li Lana's head: "You are so long-winded." She was in a good mood. What could be more joyful than a hostile idiot destroying himself? But after being happy, Cai Hua began to worry again. As she said, Robert had several capable subordinates. Cai Hua could not predict what would happen after Robert's control was gone.
Will someone replace Robert and become the new leader of the Adventists, or will the people above think that they are useless and simply abandon the Adventists?
Human hearts are unpredictable, and Cai Hua doesn't know what the final outcome will be.
"We just need to assist Lin Xi well." Cai Hua restrained his
Mind, speak seriously.
In the livestream, Lin Xi and Robert's conversation had come to a close. It was nothing more than Robert using threats and bribes to get Lin Xi to take him with him. Robert didn't want to die, and the more he had, the more he feared death. That was just how Robert was. He promised Lin Xi wealth and even told her that if she liked women, he'd find her a better woman.
After hearing what Robert said, Shen Sangning wanted to rush up and tear him apart, but Lin Xi stopped Shen Sangning.
Robert thought his proposal touched Lin Xi's heart, but Lin Xi just smiled and said two words to him: "Nervous."
