"Brother Bai, where did you go just now?"
"Just strolling around."
Bai Su looked back at the smoke-filled window of the obstetrics and gynecology department, thinking that it might be the short-haired policeman looking at him again.
An Xiangwen was very curious: "Then your clothes..."
Bai Su simply replied: "I was dragged by a naughty minor, it's nothing."
The evacuated patients stayed below for a while, waiting for the belated "fire brigade" to go in and circle around twice before announcing that the inpatient department was fine and they could go back.
As for the obstetrics and gynecology department next door, the situation is a bit more serious. I heard that some people have been temporarily assigned to other wards, and more of them are not known to Bai Su who has returned to the ward.
He didn't really care about the situation in the building next door.
He was more concerned about how he would solve lunch today.
After the fire evacuation, the time was directly delayed from 8 a.m. to 11 noon, which took three hours.
Fortunately, the nurse in charge of their ward knew very well about Bai Su's appetite. After the patient was almost done going home, she came to Bai Su's ward to talk about it.
"Mr. Bai, today's lunch will be brought by the nurse." The nurse showed a gentle smile to Bai Su, but turned to An Xiangwen and her face became angry. "Mr. An, please stay in bed and stop being casual." Get out of bed!”
An Xiangwen, who was being scolded inexplicably, pointed at himself. Just as he was about to open his mouth to defend, the nurse had already closed the door and left.
The aggrieved young man with curly hair was about to turn around and talk to his brother Bai, but found that all that was left for him was a ruthless sound of the door closing.
Bai Su went into the bathroom and left the human alone in the ward.
The bathroom is a relatively independent and closed space.
Bai Su locked the door.
The structure of the bathroom is simple, with a sink, a mirror, and a toilet. Bai Su stood in front of the sink.
He took out the small skeleton frame that moved from time to time in his pocket, lifted the frame into the air, and shook it again.
"Oh, stop shaking. I'm too dizzy. The sun has made the child stupid."
The moment the shrill voice came out, the entire wall in the direction of the door was covered with cotton wool. The fluffy white mesh stretched like a creeping plant, and some even squeezed into the gaps in the door.
Of course, there is no spillage, only the inside of the door is visible.
The skeleton, who was still shouting at the top of his lungs, saw this scene and immediately stopped talking. He hung his arms obediently like a quail and remained motionless.
Bai Su didn't mean to threaten, he just wanted to add insurance to his conversation with the little supernatural being.
Although the humans outside are stupid, they are still humans.
Bai Su placed the small skeleton frame on the shelf under the mirror, put his hand on the sink, and began to ask: "I'll ask you to answer, is that okay?"
The little skeleton couldn't help but tremble, and it nodded its skull.
The boss in front of him gave it absolutely no room to refuse!
The little skeleton even felt that as long as it didn't cooperate, death would be waiting for it in the next second.
After all, when the boss first saw it, his eyes were full of appetite.
Yes, appetite, it had seen that look when the doctor on duty in the human office was starving at midnight.
"Are you also a supernatural being?"
"Yes...yes, it can be considered supernatural."
"How long has it been since you were born?"
"One, less than a year."
Hey, it hasn’t been a year yet? Bai Su frowned.
It's less than a year old, so how long will he have to wait to eat it?
Baisu has the illusion that after catching a fish, he finds that the fry are too small, so he has no choice but to throw the fish back into the lake to raise it for next year.
"How soon do you think it will take you to get bigger?"
"Getting bigger?"
The little skeleton didn't understand Bai Su's meaning at first, but after staring at it for a while with Bai Su's black eyes that had completely settled, the skeleton had to understand.
The boss is asking it when it will grow big enough to be eaten.
Scared to the point of almost crying again, the skeleton replied cautiously: "I won't grow up, I'm only this big!"
Bai Su glanced at the other party and felt that the skeleton might have misunderstood: "I mean your power?"
It was a bit of a chicken-and-duck talk, but the skeleton realized again: "It will take a long time...it will be very slow to just rely on natural growth without eating people."
"How long is long?"
"Uh...it takes more than ten years to grow to the point where you can see me...?"
Skeleton Frame deliberately stated the time in the long term, but in fact it was not much different, it would be seven or eight years if not ten years. The environment in which it was born made it temporarily have no intention of harming others.
Flesh and blood is the best nourishment for supernatural beings.
Then Skull Shelf felt Bai Su's disgusted eyes.
Ten years is too long. Do you want to eat it now?
His eyes wandered all over the skeleton, and Bai Su shivered at the sight of the little spirit. The bones collided with each other, making a crisp sound, which was especially obvious in this quiet environment.
But the skeleton frame couldn't be controlled. It had tried its best to prevent it from falling apart, and it had no flesh on it, so it had this effect when it shook.
Bai Su thought about it again and again, and didn't eat the skeleton that smelled of white chocolate for the time being.
"What's on the third floor?" He changed the subject, "The third floor of the hospital."
In order not to be disposed of, the skeleton racked its brains to think. The range of its contact was too small, and it could only learn from the mouths of humans in the same office.
"Well, it seems like something happened on the third floor of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. There was... it felt like there was a being much stronger than me passing by."
Is this still a little supernatural thing? The fire evacuation was so loud that everyone in the two buildings knew that something had happened in the third building next door.
As for the supernatural beings that were more powerful than it... Bai Su found it hard to imagine where he could find a supernatural being that was weaker than a skeleton.
Vaguely feeling that he was being despised, the skeleton hugged him helplessly.
Bai Su further refined the question: "Not in these two buildings, but in other parts of the hospital on the third floor, are there any other supernatural beings?"
The skeleton said that it didn't know. It didn't usually run around, and there were very few ways to receive news.
"But there's one thing, boss..." Skeleton Shelf said, "You have to know that we can easily attract humans."
As soon as powerful supernatural beings appear, they are targeted by humans. No matter whether they can be defeated or not, humans will always rush to deal with them.
Once the weak supernatural beings are discovered, they will either be taken away or dealt with on the spot. There are only a few who take advantage of the environment to hide them, like the skeletons.
"So...I guess the other one you sensed should also be..." A weak existence.
"If it were powerful, humans would have come to the door long ago."
It makes sense, but wouldn't it mean that he wouldn't be able to get extra meals?
Bai Su puffed out his mouth unhappily and tapped his arm with his fingers.
He didn't know what he was thinking, but as time passed, the environment changed and the skeleton wanted to escape on the spot.
The white floc keeps growing like mycelium, spreading from the door along the wall, crawling down the mirror, and almost falling on the shelf——
There was a knock on the door.
"Brother Bai...Brother Bai, are you okay? I can't hold it in anymore!"
An Xiangwen's voice came from outside the door, calling back Bai Su's thoughts.
In an instant, the white inside the door and on the wall receded like a tide.
Bai Su reached out and put the skeleton frame back into his pocket, turned around and opened the door.
