Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 24 Coldness

Unfortunately, the argument that seemed to escalate into a fight eventually fell apart.

Because the bell rang.

"Jingle Bell--"

When the urgent bell rang, both Head Nurse Lin and the nurse named Xue Yan's expressions changed simultaneously. The former had a look of watching the show, while the latter's face turned red and she had a slightly annoyed expression.

"It seems there's been another accident on the fourth floor where Nurse Xue Yan works?" Head Nurse Lin said with a half-smile.

Xue Yan's delicate makeup was somewhat distorted. She ignored Nurse Lin, seemingly blinded by anger, and turned around to run towards the elevator in her high heels, completely forgetting that Yu Shijiu was also a patient on the fourth floor.

Nurse Lin certainly noticed Yu Shijiu, but the fourth floor wasn't her area of ​​responsibility. She was more interested in causing Xue Yan more trouble, so she simply ignored it.

What does Yu Shijiu, the protagonist, think? Yu Shijiu couldn't be happier.

After the two nurses left, Yu Shijiu turned around and leaned on the front desk, asking the nurse who had been silent the whole time:

"so what should I do?"

Yu Shijiu lowered her eyes to hide the redness in them, a hint of grievance showing on her thin face:

"Nurse sister."

Front desk nurse: "..."

She looked a little dazed, then scratched the back of her neck somewhat helplessly, and looked at He Lingling and the others who were walking over:

"Oh right, I remember some interns went to the fourth floor..."

The receptionist nurse glanced down at the notebook on the table, her eyes lighting up:

Who is He Lingling?

He Lingling, who had just stepped forward to pat Yu Shijiu on the shoulder, had a bad feeling and silently raised her hand:

"……I am."

The receptionist nurse glanced at her, looked down at her notebook, and when she looked up again, her eyes held a hint of malice.

"Oh, so you are the one. You're the intern assigned to the fourth floor, which means, um, an intern under Nurse Xue."

Even Yu Shijiu glanced at He Lingling with a look of surprise this time.

What kind of luck is this?

He Lingling: "..."

Her already large pupils widened for a moment, as if she could hardly believe it.

So she just pledged her loyalty to her boss's rival, the head nurse?

isn't it...

Many players outside the game almost burst out laughing after seeing this, teasing each other about He Lingling's shocked expression.

"He Lingling always makes blunders, hahaha."

"It's alright, he just flattered the wrong person. He's actually quite capable."

Many veteran players who follow He Lingling know better than some who were amused by her that He Lingling's talent skills are truly terrifying.

This minor blunder is just a side story; when things really come to a head, the one who will turn the tide will definitely be He Lingling.

"What about him?"

Someone pointed to the boy sitting quietly next to He Lingling, a look of amusement on their face:

"This newcomer's performance in the trial game was quite outstanding."

It was already unexpected for a newcomer to dare to kill a monster, let alone a seemingly weak and powerless little boy. Many veteran players who had watched that trial game remember it vividly.

"The trial game performed well; the initial reaction of asking the nurse a question was also good," commented a veteran player, offering a succinct observation.

"But he didn't activate his innate skills."

Surviving in Dawn is not easy, and acquiring talent skills is even more difficult. Almost every player's talent skills are triggered in life-or-death situations, but this requires the player to be strong and to encounter more missions and dangers in the game. Therefore, most players die before their talent skills are even triggered.

No one wants to "seek death" when they know they might die.

"Not necessarily," some players who were optimistic about Yu Shijiu disagreed.

What if he gains a special skill in this game?

Someone clicked their tongue: "How many players actually got that in the first game?"

"No? What did Lu Chusheng say?"

The moment the name Lu Chusheng was uttered, many people present fell silent.

After a long pause, a player sneered, "He's not even worthy of being compared to Lu Chusheng!"

Who is Lu Chusheng? He is the captain of the inspection team who is almost always ranked first on all the lists.

Besides his exceptional skills, Lu Chusheng's upright character, which he maintained even after joining the Dawn Game, is also something that many players admire.

In their eyes, Lu Chusheng was not a newbie who had just entered the game or even completed a single official game, and they could not possibly take advantage of him.

Perhaps realizing they had said the wrong thing, the player who had initially mentioned Lu Chusheng shrank back and dared not speak again.

Several minutes passed before a player cautiously spoke up:

"But I seem to remember He Lingling saying she was going to mentor this newcomer?"

Then this newcomer entered the same game as He Lingling. Is it really such a coincidence?

----------

He Lingling, who was assigned to the fourth floor for her internship, led Yu Shijiu toward the elevator.

Once inside, He Lingling took out her elevator card and swiped it.

With a "beep", the elevator doors slowly closed.

The elevator was silent. Yu Shijiu had no intention of chatting with He Lingling. He looked at the blurry figure on the elevator wall with his eyelids slightly lowered.

Finally, He Lingling couldn't help but ask, "Wait, are you usually this quiet and reserved?"

Why does she feel that the current Yu Shijiu has a completely different personality from the Yu Shijiu in town?

Upon hearing this, Yu Shijiu smiled and said, "No."

He Lingling: "..."

She rolled her eyes, finally realizing that Yu Shijiu was deliberately trying to provoke people in town.

Treat what's useful with enthusiasm, ignore what's useless.

I have to say He Lingling is right.

Yu Shijiu really has no intention of forming an "alliance" with He Lingling right now.

He has a good eye for people. He Lingling may seem crazy and reckless, but she is actually a cautious player who thinks things through before acting.

This kind of personality is actually not very suitable for Yu Shijiu now.

After all, he's the kind of player who might go crazy at the sight of blood, so that wouldn't be very friendly to He Lingling.

Thinking about it this way, Yu Shijiu couldn't help but sigh that he was indeed too "kind".

"Alright, alright, then go find a ward yourself," He Lingling didn't dwell on it any further, nor did she interfere much with Yu Shijiu's idea of ​​clearing the game on his own.

After all, you still have to play the game on your own; relying on others all the time isn't a good thing.

After exiting the elevator, Yu Shijiu and He Lingling separated; one went to find a ward, and the other went to "prove her loyalty" to her new boss.

The fourth-floor corridor looked very clean, with a spotless floor, snow-white walls, and doors that all looked to be of very high quality.

Ward 119.

Yu Shijiu silently read the room numbers, looking at them one by one, his gaze finally settling on the ward at the end of the corridor.
