Chapter 20 - : Abandoned Hospital (4) (2/2)
“Big sister, what’s wrong? Don’t scare me!”
Little sister Meng Xin shook her older sister’s shoulder. Earlier she saw that she was in terror and was extremely worried. Seeing that her older sister’s eyes had regained focus, she was able to breathe a sigh of relief.
“………”
Meng Ke was stunned. As if she had just suddenly returned to her senses, she started to touch her sister’s face and body: “Xin Xin, Xin Xin? Are you okay?”
“I’m okay. The one who’s not okay is you, big sister.” The young girl held onto her big sister’s hand, “What happened to you just then? No matter how much I call you, you didn’t listen and just continued to back away. It was as if you saw something scary.”
“I…I saw you become a monster. And the others…..Xiao Xiao and the others all disappeared….”
Borrowing the young girls’ strength, Meng Ke stood up unsteadily. Her face was still pale, and she was still a little dizzy.
“Looks like you had an hallucination.” Da Gao spoke up, “Did you do anything special just then?”
“No….I just wiped away the water that fell onto my face.” Meng Ke warily answered.
“Water? What water?”
“The water from the ceil——-”
Meng Ke looked up and her words abruptly stopped. Her face once again went a few shades paler.
The ceiling was clean, and the walls were smooth, only covered in a layer of dust. There wasn’t any signs of it being soaked in water.
“Big sister……..”
Feeling her start trembling again, Meng Xin held tightly onto her wrist and her eyes were filled with worry.
Cheng Zi Chu watched this and felt a little uncomfortable, but his ring didn’t warm up and the Meng sisters weren’t more than five metres away from him, so it meant that there weren’t any ghosts or monsters around. So why would Meng Ke see such a scary hallucination?
Bai Yi looked at them and didn’t say a word. As if he was just a bystander, coldness and indifference was concealed within his eyes.
“Under your feet……….”
Ji Yun Xiao revealed a worried expression. His eyes fell to the location next to Meng Ke’s felt and he pointed: “There. There’s something.”
“What?”
Meng Ke was startled and quickly looked next to her. When she looked, she saw that there was indeed a small shadow next to her. It was the thing that she had tripped over earlier.
She and her sister took a closer look and saw that it was just a dirty teddy bear. Its’ entire body was furry and it was only about the size of two handspans. Its’ face was facing the ground and one of its arms was missing revealing the cotton inside.
Meng Xin used her ‘Clue Prompt’ skill and saw that the bear didn’t light up. It appears to not be a clue.
With only the little bear appearing in the hallway, it looked extremely awkward and they suspected that it could be related to Meng Ke’s hallucination.
Meng Xin didn’t hesitate to pull out her gun and fire two shots at the bear. Her gun was loaded with a silencer, so the sound was very small.
The bear that was hit bounced around on the ground from the force of the bullet and only became more tattered. There was no other changes and it seemed to be an ordinary teddy bear.
Seeing this, everyone was relieved. The two sisters re-joined the group and they successfully made their way to the room 105 without anyone having any further hallucinations.
Illuminated by the flashlight, they saw that the door to room 105 appeared to have been tightly boarded up with wood before but for some reason, it was taken down again. The broken boards were thrown aside in the corridor, and the door to room 105 was tightly locked.
Ji Yun Xiao held onto the key and wanted to open the door, but he was stopped by Da Gao who took over and opened the door for them.
With a “click”, the key was inserted into the keyhole and a small noise was heard.
Da Gao raised his alertness and slowly pushed the handle down and pushed the door open while looking fixatedly at the widening gap.
Cheng Zhi Chu, who was watching from the side, couldn’t help but feel a little nervous and proceeded to hold his breathe watching them opening the door. But at this moment, he once again heard the system’s cold voice and his face instantly turned pale.
【Initiating out of control behaviour.]
“Zhi Chu?”
Bai Yi seemed to have noticed that something wasn’t right. His eyes moved over to Cheng Zhi Chu and when he saw his panicked look, he grabbed his wrist and asked: “You lost control?”
Hearing him ask this, Ji Yun Xiao and the two sisters subconsciously looked back and saw Bai Yi holding onto Cheng Zhi Chu’s wrist. But the next moment, it became Cheng Zhi Chu holding Bai Yi’s wrist. He even stood on his toes and lifted up his head and moved his face closer to Bai Yi.
“……….”
Under Bai Yi’s look of surprise, Cheng Zhi Chu closed his eyes and raised his other hand to caress Bai Yi’s handsome face. He then proceeded to plant his lips onto the corner of his lips.
