Chapter 105 The New Courier



Seeing this photo, Yu Xiao was stunned. She took Zhou Xiaozhen's phone and the wise man in the photo was as calm as ever. Yu Xiao knew him for a short time, but she also witnessed his death, but she had never seen him anything but calm.

Just like he said, he knew everything that had happened and would happen, and no matter what he did, he would just experience what he already knew.

At that time, he lowered his head under the starlight, and asked Yu Xiao with a lonely look if he was real.

Yu Xiao looked at the photo, wondering if the wise man could have expected that Xiaozhen could take the photo of him secretly taken by him out and out of his world. If he had expected it, he should be happy, because this was the proof of his existence.

Yu Xiao sent the photo to her mobile phone. Zhou Xiaozhen asked, "What happened later? I was playing mahjong when the monster fell asleep."

After backing up the photo in the online disk, Yu Xiao sat down on the bed. She suddenly had an idea. She might never meet the people she met in the dungeon again. Could she take some photos as a souvenir?

Hearing Xiaozhen's question, Yu Xiao recovered and briefly told her what happened afterwards.

After listening to this, Zhou Xiaozhen felt like crying. "The wise man is good, why must he die?"

Zhao Lan had some ideas. "I used to think that every dungeon is a test for us. The main purpose is to assess us. Those who fail to pass the assessment will die in the dungeon. Those who survive in the end are the strong ones who have passed the assessments. Now I think that maybe the relationship between patients and dungeons, or the entire hospital, is not a simple relationship between examiners and examinees."

"What do you mean?" Zhou Xiaozhen didn't understand. "What is that relationship?"

"I think it's a bit like... a symbiotic relationship." Zhao Lan said: "We go to dungeons and complete tasks, which is also part of the many links to maintain the operation of the hospital, just like this dungeon. The maintenance of the world of wise men requires each generation of wise men to sacrifice their lives, but the wise men themselves will not take the initiative to die, and the people in the world of wise men will not send the wise men to die, so we, the external patients, need to do it. In this way, we gain points, and the world of wise men is also maintained."

This is also what Yu Xiao thought in his heart. The hospital is not an absolute master over the patients, which is reflected in many aspects.

For example, the attending physician cannot take the initiative to obviously attack the patient, and the patient can report to the hospital staff. Every five years, there will be a hospital inspection, and the leaders will listen carefully to the opinions of patients. As long as it is within the scope of the rules, patients can do almost anything, but of course there will be a price to pay if they make mistakes. Even patients can become hospital staff, such as Yu Xiao himself.

Zhou Xiaozhen seemed to understand, "So... is this good news for us?"

"It's not good news." Yu Xiao said, "It doesn't seem to have any effect at the moment. We still have to continue to earn points."

Zhao Lan and Zhou Xiaozhen sighed at the same time. Suddenly Zhou Xiaozhen remembered something, "Sister Xiao, you said that in those five minutes, a ghost helped us. Why did the ghost help us?"

Yu Xiao had many guesses about this, but she hadn't thought it through yet, so she said, "It may be related to what I did before. When I first arrived at the hospital, I was worried about you two, so I got a lot of meat from St. Elizabeth's to bribe the ghosts behind the door, hoping that they would help you after seeing you."

Zhao Lan raised his head suddenly, "Who did you bribe?"

"This... I don't know this person either, how would I know who I bribed?" Yu Xiao said in embarrassment, "I only had time to bribe two people, one of whom was the one who helped us at the last minute. He also helped me once before, saving me after the goblin riot and sending me to the first floor of the hospital."

Zhao Lan's lips trembled, and he took something out of his pocket, "Xiao Xiao, thank you, the other person also helped me twice."

"What is that?" Zhou Xiaozhen looked at the thing in Zhao Lan's hand curiously.

Yu Xiao also leaned over to take a look. Is that... a pendant?

It's a very old style, the kind that was popular many years ago, a photo necklace pendant. It should have been gold, but it may have been too long, and the whole necklace is rusty. There was something dark brown on it, like blood.

Zhao Lan opened the pendant, and inside was a small portrait.

It was a very young woman with long curly hair, lipstick, and a confident smile.

"So beautiful." Zhou Xiaozhen envied, "Who is this? She's so pretty."

"Xiaoxiao, I remember Qingshi said that the people in the ward are all our predecessors. The wise man also said that the people in the ward are outsiders who don't belong to that world." Zhao Lan looked at Yu Xiao.

"Yeah." Yu Xiao took out an old cell phone and said, "I'm sure they were all former patients who went to the world of wise men to do missions. They may have died in the hospital and became ghosts in the ward."

"Oh my God." Thinking of the ghosts in the ward, Zhou Xiaozhen's scalp tingled, "Isn't this too scary? They are eating people now."

"Could it be that some of them still have memories of being human?" Zhao Lan stared at the photo in his hand in a daze, "What do you think she meant by leaving this necklace to me?"

Zhou Xiaozhen looked at it for a while and said, "She wants us to take the photos out? To her relatives and friends?"

No one knows why.

Yu Xiao took out the charger to charge the old Nokia phone. The phone responded the moment the charger was plugged in. Yu Xiao was relieved. Fortunately, fortunately, the phone was not broken.

Zhao Lan and Yu Xiao were both in a low mood, but Zhou Xiaozhen was not affected. She opened a bag of spicy strips, made herself a cup of tea, and then started looking at her phone.

She received a lot of text messages this time. It seems that she performed well this time. She must have a lot of titles, right?

Zhou Xiaozhen happily clicked on the text message, and the moment she saw the title, her smile froze, and some bad memories flooded her mind.

Yu Xiao observed the Nokia phone and decided to wait until it was fully charged before looking at it. She was originally going to read the text messages, but when she opened the mall, she found that she had accumulated a lot of orders for talismans. Her talismans were almost used up in this copy, so she had no choice but to draw some quickly.

Zhao Lan put the necklace away. She knew in her heart that even if she could leave the Sixth Hospital one day in the future, she might not know who the person in the photo was. The probability of finding someone based on a photo was too low, not to mention that judging from the style of the pendant, it should have been many years ago. If nothing unexpected happens, the person in the photo has been dead for many years, and it will be even more difficult to find the person.

Before taking a shower, Zhao Lan checked her phone. The titles this time were pretty good. However, she was in a bad mood, so she was not curious about the titles of the two sisters, and she did not see Zhou Xiaozhen's tangled face.

By the time Yu Xiao finished drawing all the order talismans, it was time for dinner.

Zhou Xiaozhen bought a lot of meat dishes, and Yu Xiao thought about sending the express before dinner so that he could have a good rest for the whole afternoon.

While waiting for the courier, she couldn't help thinking, the previous courier had been designed by her, what would the new courier be like? I hope he has a better temper. Yu Xiao thinks she has a good temper, and she also hopes to get along with people with good tempers... or ghosts.

"Knock, knock, knock."

There was a gentle knock on the door, and a sweet female voice said, "Hello, I'm here to pick up the package." "

Wow~" Zhou Xiaozhen was surprised, "The new courier is a young lady."

Yu Xiao was very satisfied with this, this is the attitude a normal courier should have. She said, "Okay, I'll open the door."

After opening the door, Yu Xiao filled out the courier form while chatting with the new courier, "Does your courier have a name?"

The courier outside laughed twice, "Of course there is a name, but I don't want to tell you, after all, we are not familiar with each other yet."

This is normal, Yu Xiao didn't mind at all, she asked again: "How about the previous courier?"

"Oh, it's true that he colluded with Meng Yan, and he has been fired." The courier lady suddenly laughed again, "I heard that he was very dissatisfied and kept saying that he was framed. He swore to take revenge."

Good guy, Yu Xiao laughed dryly and said, "How can he, a courier who was fired, take revenge?"

"He's already looking for a new job." The courier girl said, "He's very capable, and many companies want to recruit him."

Yu Xiao was surprised and asked tentatively, "Why does he want to be a courier if he's so capable?"

"He wasn't a courier at first. He made a mistake and was dismissed, so he became a courier." The courier girl paused here, and then said meaningfully, "I heard that he used to be an attending physician, but was dismissed because he violated the rules and killed a patient. He has a strong sense of revenge, and those who are targeted by him should be careful."

Yu Xiao: "..."

Yu Xiao hesitated for a moment. Although she felt that she was very innocent in this matter, after all, she thought the courier was the one who was wrong. But she had to be prepared, so she said, "If I want to get the latest news about the former courier in time, I wonder what I have to give?"

There was silence outside at first, and then the sound of sips was heard outside. Yu Xiao heard the courier girl say, "I heard that St. Elizabeth's specialty is very delicious and elastic meat?"

Yu Xiao understood the meaning, "Not only that, the chef of St. Elizabeth's is best at charcoal-grilled tenderloin. I think we are very compatible and want to be friends. Sharing delicious food with friends does not violate the hospital rules and regulations, right?"

The courier girl left with satisfaction. Yu Xiao wiped the sweat off his face and felt that he must be kind to ghosts in the future and not offend ghosts again.

Zhao Lan came out of the bathroom, sat down and poured herself a glass of juice. Zhou Xiaozhen asked carefully, "Sister Lan, do you have a nickname this time?"

"Yes." Zhao Lan said.

"Oh." Zhou Xiaozhen nodded, "What's your nickname?"

"What do you mean?" Zhao Lan said, "My nickname is Selfless, which is pretty good. What about you, Xiaozhen?"

Zhou Xiaozhen hesitated for a moment and chose to change the subject, "Sister Xiao, what's your nickname?"

"I haven't read it yet." Yu Xiao sat down at the table, took out her mobile phone and started reading text messages, "Why are you asking about the title again? This time I'm not betting with you. No matter what the title is, I will never become a man to sleep with you again."
