Finding the right passage was not difficult for Li Rusong and Xi Yu, and climbing to the sixth floor was even easier. However, the lighting level in the passage was very low, and the walls on both sides were covered with mirrors. The three of them walked on In the corridor, I would always look at myself in the mirror unconsciously.
"Look less in the mirror."
Li Rusong reminded: "If you look in the mirror, you will naturally see you in the mirror. The more you see, the more like you will be in the imitation."
He said this with a strange expression, as if he had some psychological shadow in this regard. Even Xu Jing glanced at him darkly several times without noticing.
"Imitate me?"
Xi Yu knocked on the mirror with interest, and she made the same move in the mirror. She smiled provocatively at the young woman with a high ponytail in the mirror: "It would be interesting if you could really imitate me. .”
Even if he could imitate her, he couldn't imitate Li Yue and the others. Xi Yu was not afraid that the ghost in the mirror would imitate her, she was only afraid that the ghost in the mirror would not come out.
The stairwell on the thirteenth floor is labeled "Special Ward Area". There is a nurse on duty at the guidance desk. She also has sutures on her neck and forehead, but the location is different from the suture nurse in the outpatient hall.
"Patients in room 1304, you are late."
The nurse on duty pointed to a room at the end of the corridor: "This is your room. For your safety, please try not to leave the room. Lunch and dinner will be served to you by dedicated personnel."
"If you need to leave the room, you will be informed through the central broadcast. Please do not believe anyone knocking on the door to notify you, even if they are medical staff."
The nurse on duty said expressionlessly, as if she didn't even notice that what she said was contradictory to the suture nurse's initial statement of "unconditionally obey any request of the medical staff."
"The service is pretty good. What's your job number? I'll give you a five-star rating."
Xi Yu patted the nurse on duty on the shoulder and glanced at the red sutures between the nurses' necks. These were sutures specially used for surgical operations. The red color would only be used in extremely major surgeries.
Have all the nurses performed surgeries?
She enthusiastically handed a stack of ghost coins to the nurse on duty: "Please nurse, please take more care of our ward. Alas, orphans and widowers are all sick, so life is not easy."
Li Rusong:......
Xu Jing:......
Nurse on duty:…
The nurse on duty looked at Xi Yu suspiciously, then at Xu Jing and Li Rusong: "Who is the mother? Who is the child?"
Xi Yu talked nonsense confidently: "Although it's hard to see it, but -"
She handed the nurse a stack of Hades Coins: "These two are actually extremely aggressive delusional patients. These are all their fantasies. I hope you won't expose them in person."
"Well, we don't want any privileges, we just want to make life more convenient. For example, in terms of treatment, we want to see the effects of others first."
Nurse on duty: ...You look more like a person with hallucinations.
Accepting the coin as if nothing had happened, the nurse on duty assured her: "I understand, don't worry, I will arrange for other people to be treated first."
Not ignoring the flash of desire in Xu Jing's eyes when he saw Mingbi, Xi Yu opened the door of 1304 with a smile and first chose the position closest to the door.
Xu Jing looked at Xi Yu, then at Li Rusong, and continued to hide in the corner.
"It would be a burden to keep it."
Li Rusong made no secret of his murderous intention: "If he is allowed to harm more people, very terrible things will happen."
"That's why I kept him around."
Xi Yu smiled and pointed at Xu Jing, who was squatting in the corner and trying to reduce his presence: "Brother Li, he is still useful."
The two seemed to be having a peaceful and friendly exchange, but in fact Li Rusong was holding a short knife in his hand, and Xi Yu's long knife was also in her hand. The two did not reach an agreement on whether to kill Xu Jing.
"Trust me for once."
Xi Yu tucked her hanging hair behind her ears. She smiled reassuringly at Xu Jing and said, "As far as I know, the most dangerous thing here is not the 'dead man' who appears in front of us."
"It's dinner time. Patients on the 13th floor are asked to go to the guidance desk to find the nurse on duty to pick up their meals."
The radio interrupted what Xi Yu was going to say next.
"Each person is limited to one meal and drinking water. Note that only living people can receive dinner."
Xi Yu and Li Rusong's expressions changed slightly and they frowned at the same time.
If there was only one "dead person" mixed in among the living, the broadcast would not state it this way.
Xi Yu picked up Xu Jing and walked to the guidance platform in a few steps.
She and Li Rusong repeatedly counted the number of people waiting to receive their meals, and unexpectedly found that there were twenty people.
These twenty people seemed to be teammates who entered the ghost story with them, because Xi Yu had a clear impression of each of them.
The memory is tainted.
She pressed her eyebrows, but found no clues. A looming black mist began to appear on the heads of all her teammates.
Others also discovered this a few minutes later, as the nurse on duty had prepared only a dozen dinners.
The fear that the ghost was around them made everyone panic. Some people who were quick to react thought that who was the ghost might be related to who had no dinner. Six people snatched away the meal with quick eyesight and quick hands, while the remaining dozen people relied on There was a fight, and the winner took away the other six meals.
The nurse on duty spread her hands to the remaining people, indicating that she no longer had any meals. When she looked at Xi Yu, she shook her head in a shallow arc.
"There are eight dead people hidden among you."
The cold mechanical broadcast sounded again: "The dead are mixed among the living, eager to get new treatment opportunities. If you fail to find these 'dead people' when the official treatment begins in seven days, you will be assimilated by them." .”
The mirrors on both sides of the corridor clearly reflected everyone's faces, some were angry or flustered, some were uneasy, and some were thoughtful.
She saw her blinking at herself in the mirror, raising the corners of her mouth, and gesturing with her hands across her neck.
Mirror.
imitate.
replace.
How can you best disguise yourself as a living person?
How can we make it as indistinguishable as possible?
That’s what mirrors are for!
Xi Yu suddenly understood. She mentioned Xu Jing and rushed back to ward 1304. She hid in the bathroom without a mirror, sat on the toilet and opened Baishi's bankbook.
"I want a mirror."
She quickly scrolled through her bankbook and found an ordinary-looking portable dressing mirror.
"What happened? What did you find?"
Li Rusong knocked on the toilet door without any emotional intelligence: "Hey, there are eight ghosts now, what are you going to do?"
"look."
Li Rusong's confused face occupied the mirror. Xi Yu clicked her tongue and tilted the mirror slightly so that the mirror could shine on Xu Jing.
The mirror was empty, not a single figure in sight.
