Chapter 6: The Signboard in the Square
Chapter 6: The Signboard in the Square
In the real world,
Unspeakable forces have begun to invade other countries, and many patients in hospitals are inexplicably dying in their beds.
People all over the world are suffering unbearably.
Now, everyone's attention is focused on Gu Yi, the challenger from the Dragon Country.
If Gu Yi can complete the perfect level clearance, not only the strange hospital in Dragon Country but also all the strange hospitals in the world will disappear at the same time.
On the live broadcast screen,
Gu Yi was eating with his head down, and the patient next to him was about to suffocate.
"Why doesn't Gu Yi save him?"
"The rules of the cafeteria do not allow random movement."
"But isn't the back of the note saying that he can't ignore someone dying?"
"It makes me so angry. It's better to die early and let the whole world be destroyed."
The barrage was in a mess, and the Dragon Country expert group was also discussing nervously.
"This is almost an unsolvable situation. We don't know where the bottom line of 'loud noise' is. Is it feasible to make other noises to attract doctors?"
"This is too risky. Gu Yi has already violated the rules once, and if he violates them again, he will face punishment."
"It doesn't matter, I guess Gu Yi has already found the correct solution."
In the live screen,
Gu Yi quickly finished all the food, walked behind the doctor, patted him on the shoulder, and then stood quietly on the side.
The doctor noticed the unconscious patient and immediately picked him up and rushed to the emergency room.
"Why didn't he just call the doctor directly?"
"People like you will surely die an early death. You can't even survive for a minute in the Weird space."
"Just remember the cafeteria dining rules before you speak, okay?"
The experts in Dragon Country ignored the bickering in the barrage and carefully analyzed every move made by Gu Yi.
"He is really calm and has quick thinking."
"He may be the last hope for all humanity!"
"I think he has already figured out the meaning behind the note, otherwise he wouldn't have found a solution so quickly."
People all over the world were closely watching the screen, their hopes attached to Gu Yi.
...
In Weird World,
Off course, Gu Yi was unaware of what people in the real world were discussing. He just followed the conclusion deduced from his analysis and quickly arrived at the door of the changing room.
During his previous deduction, Gu Yi discovered an interesting thing.
When the doctor discovered that the beak mask was missing, instead of reporting to the security department immediately, he would first search around and even ignore the rules in the First Aid Handbook and barge into the emergency room.
This could only mean one thing.
-In the eyes of the doctors, discovering the mask missing was even more terrifying than violating the First Aid Handbook.
They dared not admit that they had lost the mask, so they could only rely on their own strength to search for it.
Therefore, before the doctors discovered their loss, Gu Yi was safe and didn't have to worry about being caught by the security department.
As long as he could steal the mask, save the patient, and then put the mask back in the changing room as quickly as possible, he could complete the task perfectly without being caught.
Just now, he wasted a lot of time in the corridor when he deduced the plan by himself, but now he doesn't need to anymore!
Gu Yi skillfully walked into the locker room and quickly stole a set of doctor's clothes, which looked so natural that even the doctors would have difficulty distinguishing him from their own.
His heart was pounding in his throat, but he still walked calmly into the emergency room.
The other two emergency doctors took a quick glance at Gu Yi and quickly explained the situation.
"Doctor Gui, this patient suddenly fainted while having breakfast, and we are preparing to perform surgery on him..."
Before the doctor could finish his sentence, Gu Yi had already completed the surgery and the patient had almost instantly emerged from the danger zone.
"Damn, what kind of technique is this?"
"I have never seen or heard of it before."
"Where is Doctor Gui going?"
Gu Yi didn't want to listen to the doctors' flattery, he had to quickly return the mask to the locker room.
The two doctors followed him.
Gu Yi quickly sneaked into the locker room, threw the clothes into the next locker, and quickly opened an empty one to hide inside.
In the narrow locker, Gu Yi could only hear his own heartbeat.
"Where is Doctor Gui?"
"Maybe he went to take a shower?"
"Why is he so unsociable?"
"Forget it, he has this kind of personality, just ignore him. Let's quickly send the patient back to his own ward."
The two emergency doctors left shoulder to shoulder.
Gu Yi leaned against the locker, took a deep breath, and finally, the black hair in his hand disappeared.
At this moment, a strange spatial prompt sounded in his ears.
[The adventurer has successfully resolved the crisis of the patient and feels happy. Your mental strength level has increased. You can choose one of the following two options for your reward.]
[1. Recover your mental power while being awake- 10 mental power per hour.]
[2. Increase your mental power limit by 20 points.]
After some thought, Gu Yi chose the first option without hesitation.
His mental strength had been depleted, and relying solely on sleep to recover would be too inefficient.
After waiting until there was no one around, Gu Yi left the doctor's changing room.
When he had saved the patient in the emergency room earlier, Gu Yi had torn off the labels from Xu Nian's body and put them in his pocket. It was only now that he had time to take them out and look at them.
To his surprise, when he inspected the labels with his own eyes, they had all turned into decaying worms.
Gu Yi couldn't bear the disgust and instinctively threw the worms on the ground and stomped on them.
-Why did the worms turn into jumbled-up labels after I put on the bird mask?
Gu Yi found it hard to understand.
He speculated that if he put on other animal masks, he might see a different world and gain different clues. And these clues were likely related to the truth behind the hospital!
"It is now exactly eight in the morning. All patients are requested not to loiter inside the hospital and to proceed to the front square for free activities."
The broadcast sounded.
A long string of footsteps came from behind Gu Yi.
The patients rushed downstairs like a flock of sheep, not speaking to each other and just walking straight toward the door.
Gu Yi didn't dare to be careless and immediately followed the crowd. He was afraid that even during free time, there might be rules that couldn't be violated.
Gu Yi arrived at the square in front of the hospital. A huge signboard was placed on the east side of the hospital entrance, which recorded the [Square Usage Rules].
[Square Usage Rules]
1. The square in front of the hospital is open from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. It is forbidden to enter the square at other times.
2. You can do anything in the square, but you are not allowed to leave the hospital.
3. There are many entertainment items available in the square, and you can enjoy them to your heart's content, but the hospital would not be responsible for any case of casualties.
4. This hospital does not keep dogs. If you hear a dog barking, please contact the security department of the square or the doctors in the hospital in time. You may have been infected.
5. There is a small shop in the southeast corner of the square, but please do not try to gamble with the owner, otherwise, the consequences will be at your own risk.
Below the square usage rules, there was still a string of bloody words, but this time the content made Gu Yi shudder.
"Dogs are the friends of %$#@! human friends of friends ***"
"Human human humanrf, human naturexK, human natureui exist $****zdde"
"I am not human"
"I am still human! I am human!"
