Chapter 26 Bloodstained Hospital (5)

The mysterious figure lowered its head, its shoulders weighed down by fear, and could only nod weakly.

"I couldn't beat him... and I was injured." Its voice sounded like it was being scraped out of a broken throat. "I can only find a nurse... to treat me..."

“You didn’t eat her right away,” An Jing’s eyes narrowed slightly, “is it because… you want her to cure your illness?”

“…Hmm.” It nodded again.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment.

Even the nurses' breathing became extremely faint, as if they were holding their breath.

Looking at it like this, An Jing suddenly realized something.

"...Then how did you know she could treat illnesses?" she pressed. "How did you determine that she could clean, bandage, and stitch your wounds?"

Gumi paused for a moment, then raised his eyes with difficulty and looked at the nurse's clothes in the corner.

“She…is wearing this dress,” it said.

"This uniform is for nurses... nurses treat patients."

His tone was as certain as if he were saying, "Stop at red lights, go at green lights."

"So you think that anyone who wears this clothing can cure diseases," An Jing concluded.

"Correct."

Gumi nodded again, very honestly.

An Jing: "..."

Paper Umbrella Girl: "..."

Even the system was silent for a moment before managing to utter: "...This time, the mysterious magnetic field... even the mysterious brain isn't working properly."

An Jing looked up at it for several seconds, then sighed deeply: "This is really... outrageous."

OK, we know there are two pieces of information.

This mysterious magnetic field contains a strong presence of humans, most likely the Lamp Bearers. After all, the fact that I was sent to this hospital by the Lamp Bearers indicates that the 404 Special Service Agency is connected to this hospital.

The second piece of information is...
She stood up and waved lightly at the woman with the paper umbrella.

"Kill it."

The woman with the paper umbrella nodded, flicked her wrist, and the paper umbrella slowly spun. The fine threads suddenly tightened, accompanied by a low creak like tearing cloth. Her eerie body instantly twisted and convulsed, struggling on the hospital bed for less than two seconds before becoming a corpse.

An Jing clapped his hands and turned to look at the female nurse who was still slumped on the ground, trembling all over.

"Miss Nurse," she beckoned with her finger, "can I borrow your clothes for a moment?"

Lin Yue, tears still clinging to her cheeks, instinctively shrank back upon hearing these words, pouting and hugging herself: "W-what are you going to do?"

"Is there anything I can do?"

An Jing continued, "Take off your clothes and give them to me."

Lin Yue almost thought she had misheard.

"W-what are you going to do?" she asked, her voice trembling. "You...you're not a nurse..."

“Yes,” An nodded, “but I need to dress like a nurse.”

"Why...why..." Lin Yue was on the verge of tears, "You're not even planning to save anyone..."

“Didn’t you just hear that?” An Jing put one hand on his hip. “The eeriness of this place, due to the influence of the magnetic field, seems to be treating the hospital background as a real environment and acting in an almost instinctive simulation way.”

"If they get injured, find a doctor or nurse to treat them."

"But if they're not sick... then you become food."

“So,” she explained, word by word, “this place is like a spooky hospital-themed restaurant.”

"If I'm sick, I see a doctor. If I'm not sick, I take medicine from a doctor."

Lin Yue's eyes widened: "..." "I need to find other injured mysteries now, or more accurately, I need them to come to me," An Jing said calmly, "so I need to dress up as a nurse."

“They don’t seem to attack the nurses right away; in fact, they may even cooperate with the treatment.”

"But...but you're not a doctor, and you don't know how to treat it..." Lin Yue murmured.

“Yes,” An Jing raised an eyebrow, “I can’t cure diseases, but I can kill them. Can you do that?”

"You make it sound like you're some kind of big shot, all that swagger."

"What do you know? If you want to fool others, you have to brag."

After saying that, she reached out again with a completely emotionless look in her eyes: "The clothes, hurry up."

Lin Yue: "But if I take my clothes off for you, I'll be in even greater danger."

This is also why Lin Yue kept delaying giving her the clothes.

Because if I'm wearing this outfit, and I encounter another injured mystery, won't I be able to live a little longer?

An Jing understood that this was the reason why she was reluctant to take off her clothes, so he nodded.

That's understandable; she didn't think it through.

"Okay, give me your clothes, I'll take you to a safe house first. Once we find one, you can hide inside, and we'll call it even, OK?"

".good."

Hearing that the other party was willing to compromise, Lin Yue didn't dare to say anything more. She tremblingly took off her outer nurse's uniform, leaving only her inner white T-shirt and vest. The nurse's uniform fell into An Jing's hands, a cold, damp ball, smelling of sweat and disinfectant.

An Jing shook out her clothes and quickly put them on, her movements as practiced as if she had worked in the emergency room. In just a few seconds, she transformed herself into the appearance of a professional nurse.

Although he was still wearing hospital pants, he looked a bit like a caregiver who had escaped from a mental hospital.

She looked at herself in the reflection on the wall, adjusted her clothes, and nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad, I should look better as a nurse than as a patient."

The system couldn't help but interject: "[...She'd probably be quite convincing as a female ghost too.]"

"Where can you find a female ghost this beautiful?" An Jing replied casually, walking towards the door.

But as her hand rested on the doorknob, she suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Yue.

"If you encounter something strange, you can hide and keep quiet. But don't wander off, otherwise if we can't find you and get you to the safe house, it's not that I'm breaking my promise."

Lin Yue's lips turned pale: "..."

She quietly huddled in the corner and nodded.

An Jing took a deep breath and opened the door again. Outside the ward, the room was still shrouded in a dim, yellowish light, and the lights at the end of the corridor flickered on and off.

She changed into her nurse's uniform, gently pushed open the door, and stepped out, step by step, into this eerie hell with a "medical theme."

at the same time.

Conference room on the eighth basement floor of Special Service Unit 404.

"Something's happened at the hospital!"

He Lin practically pushed the door open as she entered, clutching the newly generated data table in her hand, her face cold and her expression unusually tense.

"What happened?" Director Cheng, who was sitting at the table, looked up at her before he could even turn the page.

“There’s a magnetic field disturbance at the hospital,” He Lin said quickly. “Just an hour ago, several researchers detected the anomaly and have confirmed that a mysterious magnetic field has indeed been generated.”

Director Cheng didn't react much, but just sighed and said, "These strange magnetic fields have been really frequent lately. But why are you telling me this? Let the people below handle it."

He Lin slammed the printed paper on the table in anger, her voice pausing as she said, "Are you senile? An Jing is still inside!"

"Oh... Ah??!"

The atmosphere inside the room suddenly turned cold.

Everyone's eyes changed.
