Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 29 Ward Rounds

As soon as Xuexue finished speaking, the temperature in the room dropped a few degrees.

Xuexue looked at him, and for a moment her densely packed teeth began to wriggle, the sound of her sharp teeth chewing was very clear in the room.

Yu Shijiu was only wearing a thin striped hospital gown. Hearing this, he lowered his eyes slightly. He looked at the human brain in his hand. He was not afraid, but eating it raw... seemed a bit too disgusting.

Thinking of this, Yu Shijiu put the human brain into the pocket on the front of his hospital gown and said without any burden:

"My brother doesn't like to eat raw food, so let's pack it up and cook it later."

Xuexue was stunned, her wide-open mouth frozen in place for a moment. After thinking for a moment, her mouth gradually returned to normal:

"Is it ripe?"

Xuexue pressed on, "Brother, are you going to the cafeteria? The cafeteria ladies cook really delicious food!"

The blood on the brain quickly soaked Yu Shijiu's pocket, making it wet and sticky.

Yu Shijiu glanced indifferently at the brain flower in his chest pocket and reached out to pat Xuexue's head.

"Tomorrow," Yu Shijiu pointed to the dark night outside the window, "It's too late now, Auntie needs to rest too."

Xuexue said "oh" and pulled Yu Shijiu's hand, which was resting on her head, to touch her face.

"Brother's hands are so warm," Xuexue said with her eyes closed, her long, thick eyelashes drooping, and a strange blush rising on her pale skin.

"It's so cold, Xuexue..."

Completely unaware of Xuexue's sudden remarks, Yu Shijiu didn't refuse. He casually glanced around Xuexue's hospital room, only withdrawing his hand after examining a certain corner:

"Brother has to go back to his ward now."

"Why?" Xuexue asked, pouting as she pulled Yu Shijiu's hand, clearly unhappy.

"Are you leaving after only playing for a short while?"

Yu Shijiu smiled and looked down at Xuexue's face, which was clearly starting to turn strange again:

“There’s nothing we can do about it,” Yu Shijiu sighed. “Isn’t the nurse coming to check on us later?”

When Xue Yan was mentioned, Xue Xue's expression became noticeably strange, as if she was happy, yet also somewhat fearful, but it was quickly replaced by an expression that resembled anticipation.

Yu Shijiu looked down at Xuexue's changing expression but didn't show any unusual reaction.

Strange?

Is that surprising?

It seems that people in real life are always like this. When they think about their mothers or fathers, they become overly conflicted. They love their children too much, but they always impose their own ideas on their children. Over time, this makes them both loved and feared.

After all, in reality, the concept of "filial piety" is enough to crush the spirit of most people.

Fortunately, Xuexue is young, so she probably only feels a little bit of pressure?

“Alright,” Xuexue finally took the initiative to take Yu Shijiu’s hand and see him out, as the desire to see Xue Yan ultimately prevailed.

"Then you can come play with Xuexue again tomorrow, brother," Xuexue thought for a moment and added:

"You must come sneakily."

The implication was that Xue Yan must not find out.

Yu Shijiu readily agreed: "Of course, then Xuexue, can you tell your brother when the nurses usually come to check on Xuexue's room?"

The little Li in his mind was so talkative that Yu Shijiu couldn't bear it anymore and had the idea of ​​unbinding himself from the exclusive system.

I wonder if other players' exclusive systems are also this talkative and meddlesome.

Xuexue: "..."

She didn't quite understand why Yu Shijiu would ask that question, but quickly remembered that the other person still had to avoid Xue Yan when coming to visit her, and immediately replied:

“We’ll be checking the rooms every three hours starting at 9:30 PM,” Xuexue added after thinking for a moment.

"We generally don't do ward rounds during the day, except in special circumstances."

Special circumstances?

Yu Shijiu raised an eyebrow but didn't ask any further questions. She lowered her head, said goodnight to Xuexue who had seen her to the door, and went back to her room.

Xiao Li was completely stunned.

It didn't quite understand Yu Shijiu's actions: [Why waste this time? The side quest time is almost up!]

Yu Shijiu was too lazy to pay attention to this idiotic and talkative personal system. After walking to the table to make sure the water was okay, he poured himself a glass of water without even thinking of responding.

Xiao Li, who had been rambling on and on to herself: [...]

It felt like it was being subjected to emotional abuse, which explains why some systems say that players who mentally attack them feel very distressed.

When the minute hand of the wall clock pointed to 12:30, Yu Shijiu put down her water glass, walked lightly to the hospital bed, and lay down.

The next second, the sound of high heels clicking away echoed in the distance of the corridor outside the ward... as well as two normal footsteps.

Outside in the corridor, motion-sensor lights flickered on and off with each footstep. Xue Yan, holding a medical record book, looked down at the list on it and glanced back at the two interns following behind her.

“I’ll demonstrate for you first,” Xue Yan said, tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear. “Be smart, don’t let me find any mistakes, or else…”

Xue Yan looked at He Lingling, who had changed into a blue nurse's uniform, and sneered:

“Making a mistake during night shifts won’t just be a matter of losing money.”

He Lingling: "..."

She felt targeted; otherwise, why would they only look at her and not at Xu Han?

Xu Han looked at the wards on both sides. Although his expression was indifferent and calm, he was actually panicking inside.

He couldn't help it; he was afraid of ghosts. He almost screamed when that long-tongued monster in the elevator licked his hair with its tongue. If He Lingling hadn't grabbed his arm...

Seeing that neither of the two interns responded, Xue Yan snorted coldly, her lips gradually tearing open to reveal a dense array of sharp white teeth:

"Did you hear me?!"

Xu Han jumped and quickly replied, "I heard you!"

He Lingling: "...I heard that."

Xue Yan was finally satisfied and walked in her high heels to the front of the ward at the back of the building before stopping.

Ward 119.

He Lingling remembered that this was Yu Shijiu's ward number.

Of all the players, only Yu Shijiu is a patient; all the other players are interns.

I don't know which one is more dangerous.

Xue Yan reached out and turned the doorknob, breaking the silence of the corridor with the click of the door lock, adding a touch of fear.

After the ward door opened, the outline of a body curled up on the hospital bed not far away was revealed.

Xue Yan walked over in high heels, her bright flashlight shining directly onto the face of the person on the hospital bed.

He Lingling and Xu Han: "..."

The two exchanged a glance, their lips twitching.

Shining such a strong light on someone's eyelids, only a dead person or someone who is extremely asleep could resist opening their eyes?

Under the flashlight beam, the pale-faced boy lay on the bed, his expression peaceful and docile. He was sleeping soundly with steady breathing, not even moving his eyelashes.

Xu Han: "..."

Wow! He really can do it without even blinking!
