52 Taking Risks
◎I hope tonight will be a fruitful night◎
Qi Qiuxue's words make sense.
Now has come to a critical moment, and hiding it any further will not benefit anyone. The other three paused and finally chose to tell everything.
"My weapon is a grenade," Lu Jin said. "Just like Wu Shanyue's pistol bullets, I can't stockpile them. I can only use five at a time."
"What I have might not be called a weapon," Xu Gui said with a somewhat awkward smile. "It's just a protective shield. You can use it yourself or choose who to protect. It can reduce 95% of the damage sustained by you or your opponent, but it's not unlimited. When the damage reaches a certain level, the shield will break and you won't be able to use it again until tomorrow to repair it."
"I understand." Qi Qiuxue nodded and thought in her heart how to maximize the use of everything.
"What about you?" She then looked at Zhu Lan beside her. "What is your ability?"
"Empathy." Zhu Lan paused, then pulled out two small chips from his backpack. He handed one to Qi Qiuxue and held the remaining one in his own hand. "Try putting it on yourself."
"Yeah." Qi Qiuxue raised her hand to take it, and then placed it on the back of her hand.
The chip on the back of her hand flashed regularly a few times and soon disappeared.
Zhu Lan placed another chip between his eyebrows and said, "Zhang Xue, stand up and walk around the room."
"Okay." Qi Qiuxue stood up and stepped forward. After she left, Zhu Lan gently poked the chip on his forehead with his fingertips. In an instant, a video appeared in the eyes of several people.
The scenes that appeared in the video were everything that Qi Qiuxue could see from her perspective.
"Wow!" Wu Shanyue exclaimed, "That's amazing."
"It's okay." Zhu Lan hummed lightly, her tone sounding a little proud. In order not to waste too much time, she quickly took off the chip after the demonstration.
The used chip flashed a few times in her palm and then disappeared, turning into a wisp of smoke.
Qi Qiuxue returned to the bed and sat down again: "Are there any restrictions on the use of your abilities?"
"Once the chip has been selected for use on a target, its perspective cannot be changed for the rest of the day. It can only be used on the same person for one hour. During this hour, everything the other person sees will be projected onto my vision without reservation."
"I've been hiding chips on these doctors and nurses these past few days, but maybe they don't have enough authority, or maybe they're just being cautious, so I haven't gotten any useful leads."
"But it could come in handy tonight." She smiled and handed another chip to Qi Qiuxue. "We can't let you take such a big risk alone. When you find a suitable opportunity, attach the chip. I'll note your route and try to avoid cameras when I meet up with you."
"As for whether other people are willing to go, I don't know..." She was interrupted by others before she could even finish her words.
"I do." Li Yiqing said firmly.
"I'm willing too." Wu Shanyue followed closely behind.
Xu Gui and Lu Jin exchanged a glance. Everything that had happened in the dungeon had encouraged them to help each other, and their bond grew stronger. Girls' friendship was pure and innocent, and they couldn't stand by and watch their friend risk her life alone. "We're going too," they replied.
"Thank you." Qi Qiuxue smiled. The time was almost up. When the drug started to be discharged from the exhaust hole, it meant that their plan was about to begin.
“Hopefully, tonight will be a fruitful night.”
-
One o'clock in the morning.
The woman in the gas mask came to the door again, accompanied by six gunmen.
The research was almost complete. She had collected the data she needed. By tomorrow night, she would be able to control the six people in the room and switch to a new research method.
The confidentiality work in the hospital was done very well, and the doctors and nurses were acting diligently and responsibly. The poor six little white mice actually thought that they were nurses in the hospital. Not only did they work diligently for several days in vain, they were not even aware that danger was approaching.
The woman gently pushed open the door in front of her and checked the situation inside the house in the dim light. Just like the previous few days, they were still lost in sweet dreams.
Seeing this, she snorted and chuckled, then closed the door, placed the medical kit on the table, and took out an empty syringe and needle combination.
Then she slowly walked to Li Yiqing's bedside and gently rolled up her sleeves, revealing his fair and smooth arms. If you looked closely, you could still see the needle holes left by the last two blood draws.
Poor child.
The woman raised her lips and was about to stab the sharp needle, but in a flash, she noticed someone appeared behind her.
The other party moved extremely quickly. The woman didn't even realize what was happening before she felt that the other party was tampering with her gas mask. The mask was undone and then taken off in an instant. She widened her eyes and wanted to look back in panic.
But before she could react, Li Yiqing, who had his eyes closed, suddenly sat up and covered her mouth and nose with a cloth soaked in sleeping pills.
The woman fainted within a few seconds and didn't make any sound from beginning to end. Everything happened in absolute silence. Lu Jin behind her caught the woman who fell powerlessly and met Qi Qiuxue's gaze.
"Success." She laughed and lip-synced with Qi Qiuxue in a low voice.
"Great." Qi Qiuxue also responded to her and Li Yiqing with her mouth. They worked together to carry the woman into the bathroom. Qi Qiuxue took off her clothes as quickly as possible and replaced them with the other woman's clothes.
"Tie her up and block her mouth." Qi Qiuxue gestured softly and put the gas mask on her face with her backhand.
At this moment, her face was almost completely covered, leaving only a pair of beautiful eyes exposed.
Fortunately, the two of them had the same color pupils, otherwise it might not have been her who risked her life tonight, but another Wu Shanyue who was of similar size to them.
"Lie down." After finishing everything, Qi Qiuxue came to the medical box and took out the syringe and needle one by one to draw blood for several people. Of course, this also included her own blood. She was an ambitious hunter who would do anything to achieve her goals. The sharp needle pierced the skin and drew out streams of bright red blood. Qi Qiuxue had a blank expression from beginning to end, and she never even frowned.
Then she signaled with her eyes to the others to stay put while she properly sealed and processed the collected blood. She then closed the medical box, opened the door and walked out.
Several gunmen who had been waiting at the door for a long time looked at her and asked, "Is everything going well?"
Qi Qiuxue didn't say anything, but opened the suitcase in the other person's sight. Six tubes of bright red blood lay quietly inside, which was weird and beautiful.
"Let's go." The gunman did not notice anything unusual. Several people left here side by side and went to other wards together. As they moved forward, the doors in front of them were opened one after another. Standing at the door, they could see the scene inside at a glance.
Unlike during the day, the patients at night were obviously very abnormal. Two handcuffs had appeared on the originally flat side of the bed, one on each side, firmly holding the patients on the bed.
Perhaps because they were afraid that they would go crazy and be difficult to control, they were tied up with circles of straps. The cold leather straps made it almost impossible for the patients to move.
Qi Qiuxue discovered that they were not asleep. Everyone was breathing heavily with their eyes wide open. Their eyeballs had changed color, all red like blood, with blue veins spreading across their faces and bodies, like the man-eating zombies in the movies. Their condition was extremely terrifying.
"Everyone in Room 1301 is dead."
"Room 1302 has entered its final countdown."
"Room 1303 is fine for now."
"Room 1304..." They began to record as usual, but this time before they finished, the condition of another patient in the ward suddenly worsened and became insane.
He was struggling, his blood-red pupils dilated infinitely as he struggled. The originally sturdy handcuffs could not withstand the brute force generated by the other party after being completely alienated, and were broken in an instant.
The hand that had been controlled was finally freed. The man struggled faster, using his hands and feet to try to break free from the straps.
The gunmen obviously wouldn't let him do that. Someone in the crowd raised a gun and pointed the black muzzle at the man in front of him.
"Bang!" His shooting was very accurate. The bullet penetrated the air and hit the man's head directly. In an instant, bright red blood and white brain matter splattered everywhere. The man's pupils began to dilate and became unable to focus. In the end, his hands and feet lost strength at the same time and twitched irregularly.
After a few seconds, he stopped breathing.
"Remember to deal with it quickly." The gunman put away his gun indifferently and said to the nurse who came running over after hearing the noise.
"It's so annoying." The nurse sighed and complained unconsciously.
The gunman did not respond. Several people closed the door and went to the next room.
Qi Qiuxue took a deep breath and followed the others at steady pace. They checked all the rooms on the thirteenth floor one after another to ensure that there were no more completely alienated patients.
Then, they got on the elevator together. Before leaving, Qi Qiuxue left the woman's elevator card to other players. In order to prevent the other party from getting suspicious, she deliberately stood in a relatively inner area.
The gunman took out the elevator card and stuck it on the display screen. With a "beep", all the elevator buttons within sight lit up.
Qi Qiuxue silently placed the chip Zhu Lan gave her on the back of her hand.
“…”
In the dim room, the display screen recording Qi Qiuxue's perspective lit up.
