Kaguya-sama: Love Is War wants me to turn myself in.

The girl with the ahoge (cowlick) had teary eyes: "Little... Little Bird Swimming..."

(This is completely over. I'll finish writing this week's episodes, at least the featured posts shouldn't stop.)

Chapter 39 Chika, where are your clothes?

"Name."

"...The True Eye of the Evil King."

"You just said your surname is Takanashi."

The girl with the ahoge (cowlick) took a half step back, pressing her right hand against her eye mask: "My true name represents power, and I cannot easily tell others."

"..."

Amamiya Natsuki was silent for two seconds, then suddenly felt that the girl with the ahoge in front of her was not very smart.

Are you alone in the ward?

"There's... there's one more."

Amamiya Natsuki raised an eyebrow: "Is the other one also a player?"

"No." The girl with the ahoge shook her head, looking nervously at the door behind her. "It's a terrible vengeful spirit. It can even talk. It says it's hungry and wants me to come out and find food. If I can't find food, it will get angry, and the consequences of its anger will be severe."

at the same time.

One after another, more unlucky players walked out of the ward, but unfortunately, Fujiwara Chika and Shinomiya Kaguya were not among them.

After a brief exchange, Natsuki Amamiya roughly understood the rules of the game.

First, each player will appear in an 'initial ward' and be matched with a 'fellow patient'.

The fellow patients are not human; they are all evil spirits or something similar. They harbor obvious malice towards the player, but they will not directly attack the player. Instead, they will intensify the fear in various ways.

The light will only last for ten minutes.

The dark corridor was especially dangerous.

Players must spend most of their time in the ward, and to avoid harm, they must build good relationships with their fellow patients by fulfilling their various terrifying requests.

For example, the girl with the ahoge in front of us was asked by the vengeful spirit in the same ward to come out and find food, and the consequences of returning empty-handed are certainly not good.

In short, the current danger comes entirely from fellow patients.

Natsuki Amamiya thought of Sadako, who shared a hospital room with her.

Miss Sadako hid back in the well because of her social anxiety and wouldn't come out no matter how much we called her. Doesn't that mean that her hospital room has become a safe house and she can lie down without any problem?

Of course, it's not feasible to just give up so quickly, as Kaguya Shinomiya and Chika Fujiwara haven't been found yet.

The two girls did not appear in the corridor, and were obviously still in a ward, unable to leave for some reason.

Amamiya Natsuki surveyed the corridor, which was lined with hospital rooms on both sides:

"Push open the doors and search room by room?"

"That's too dangerous."

Amamiya Natsuki quickly shook her head, banishing the thought from her mind.

I can only see the prompts; I'm not One-Punch Man.

"In that case, we need to find out which ward Fujiwara and Kaguya are in first..."

With her thoughts racing, Natsuki Amamiya quickly sorted out her ideas and started walking forward along the corridor.

A girl with a cowlick followed closely behind.

"Why are you following me?" Amamiya Natsuki stopped and looked at the girl with the ahoge (antenna-like hair sticking up) behind her.

Rikka Takanashi looked up at him: "Fate is guiding me..."

Amamiya Natsuki straightened her face: "Get to the point."

"Oh." Rikka Takanashi's ahoge (a stray hair on her head) drooped. "I don't know where to find food."

"You're already a seasoned player, and you're even the formidable Evil King's True Eye. Solve your own problems when you encounter them."

"Um, my Evil King's True Eye is temporarily unusable due to overuse..." Takanashi Rikka looked pitiful, just like a little animal about to be abandoned by its master. "Senpai looks like a good person I can rely on."

"Bad people never wear their badness on their faces."

"The Yukinoshita sister I met last time also said this."

"Ok?"

"..."

Upon closer inquiry, it turned out that the chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) girl in front of me had only completed one game and was still a naive new player.

The reason for clearing the game was not because of her beauty and intelligence, but because she encountered a strong player in the previous game, a girl with long black hair named Yukinoshita.

Compared to the other players who were pale and panicked, Amamiya Natsuki was quite calm, much like the chubby-legged girl Yukinoshita from the previous game. So Takanashi Rikka decided to continue to rely on her strong teammates!

As they were talking, a nurses' rest station appeared in front of them.

Under the dim and cold light, stood a young woman in a white nurse's uniform. She had a decent figure, but her clothes were covered in dark brown bloodstains, and her face was wrapped in blood-soaked gauze, making her completely uninteresting. Not to mention, she was holding a large syringe in her hand. Even a pig would squeal for a long time after getting a shot with it, so no player dared to approach her.

Just now, a daring player who called himself "the Tyrant of the Nangong Family" went by, and he was hit with a needle as soon as he opened his mouth. He is still lying on the ground now.

Natsuki Amamiya stared for a few seconds, and a prompt appeared before her eyes.

You noticed the nurse with a swollen face.

You have seen through their weakness...

[As one of the lowest-ranking staff in the hospital, doing the most tiring work, receiving the lowest wage, and having endless night shifts, the nurse thought about suicide every day.]

This nurse hates night shifts and absolutely doesn't want to talk to patients at night. As long as they remain quiet and don't make any noise, she will simply ignore them.

Having identified the weakness, Natsuki Amamiya prepared to walk towards the nurses' station.

"senior……"

Takanashi Rikka panicked and quickly grabbed Amamiya Natsuki's sleeve.

"Keep quiet."

Amamiya Natsuki raised a finger in a shushing gesture and whispered, "Wait for me here, don't make a sound."

The chuunibyou girl covered her mouth with both hands and nodded seriously.

Amamiya Natsuki turned around and walked steadily toward the nurses' station.

Players who witnessed this scene were immediately shocked.

"What is that boy doing?"

"Knowing you'll get a shot if you go over there, you still dare to go? You'll die, won't you?"

"He probably received a mission he had to complete, there was no other way... Wait, how come he's alright?"

Under the dumbfounded gazes of the two unlucky players, Natsuki Amamiya strolled over to the nurses' station and, in front of the nurse with the swollen face, began rummaging through her belongings.

"found it."

Amamiya Natsuki quickly found a worksheet that recorded the patient admission information for each ward.

I am in ward 404.

Chika Fujiwara is in ward 405.

Kaguya Shinomiya is in room 406... Goodness, she's right next door.

Having obtained the specific information about the two girls, Natsuki Amamiya turned and left the duty station, ignoring the nurse the entire time.

"How come that guy is alright?"

"Is he invisible?"

"Impossible, the nurse clearly looked up at him just now."

"..."

"I'm so glad you're alright." Takanashi Rikka breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed behind Amamiya Natsuki, unable to contain her curiosity, "Why were you alright just now?"

Amamiya Natsuki retorted, "Don't ask me, just use your invincible Evil King True Eye to see through the truth."

"The Evil King's True Eye is still sealed and cannot see the truth."

"..."

Return along the same path down the corridor.

Ten minutes were running out, and the light in the corridor quickly dimmed, darkness was fast approaching.

Natsuki Amamiya walked to room 405, raised her right hand, and knocked on the door.

Knock before entering a house; that's basic etiquette.

After waiting a few seconds, Amamiya Natsuki grasped the doorknob, gently turned it, and pushed the door open. Her gaze quickly fell on Fujiwara Chika, who was only wearing underwear.

"Excuse me, take my leave."

Chapter 40 If I call your name, Zhang San, would you dare to answer?

Darkness descends.

The corridor quickly became eerie.

Amamiya Natsuki let out a soft breath and stepped into ward 405.

The mascot pendant, Rikka, hurriedly followed, and the door slammed shut behind her.

It was also a gloomy and dimly lit hospital room.

The difference is that there is no television in the ward, only a low card table, and a dried bat specimen hanging on the wall.

Fujiwara Chika knelt beside the card table, opposite her 'roommate'.

A delinquent girl with pigtails, exaggerated smoky makeup, a hot body, and a perverted smile, with a bloodstained baseball bat next to her.

"Harley Quinn?"
