but they will eventually be found.Mu Wanchen was casting spells to repair the altar. The shattered stones had returned to their original positions, but the cracks on top could not be repaired.I was h...The doctor was so desperate for confirmation, and when I said "there's a ghost," he acted like he had found a life raft.

This hospital, something definitely happened.

"I'm very curious," I nodded. "Alright, I'll just take a peek from afar. What do you want me to look at"

"Don't be afraid, I wouldn't let you get close to the patient directly...I have pictures here." He took out his phone from his pocket and turned it on, asking, "Look, is this a ghost"

The scene in the photo is very chaotic, it looks like it's in a hospital room, but the medical equipment and supplies are all jumbled up.

There was a woman with messy hair inside, her eyes rolled back, appearing unconscious. However, a grotesque smile stretched across her lips, as if someone was pulling at the corners of her mouth from behind!

This photo gave me goosebumps, and I immediately backed away.

The middle-aged doctor insisted, "When unconscious, muscles are uncontrolled. How could she possibly make such a terrifying expression And after being brought here by 'good samaritans,' she's been muttering to herself. The person in the next bed said they heard strange noises in the middle of the night—nothing human! Look at her, the white smoke behind her, doesn't it look like a ghost"

Ghost...

This should be the mist sprayed out by a medical instrument, right At first glance it does look like a human head.

I took another close look at the photo. The ghostly figures were secondary; what really caught my eye was the woman in the picture. Her eyes were white, her mouth spewing blood, and she was covered in various instruments. But her face... I'd seen it before!

It's that strange woman named Xi Lingzhou!

She seems to have been sent by her senior sister, that Zhao Jie, to do some dangerous things, and she seems to have also had contact with the Dragon King before.

How could she be here

"Who sent this Do you know the name of that 'good Samaritan' Do they have any contact information" I pressed.

The middle-aged doctor shook his head: “That person came twice in total. The first time I wasn’t there, the nurse said a young man brought her. He said he saw the woman acting strangely on the road… We are a place that takes people in by nature, so after we filed a report, we let the woman stay…”

But after only a few days, the woman ran away again. She was found by the young man and sent back yesterday...

My heart skipped a beat.

Could Xi Linzhou be at school looking for me

The silhouette of that woman in black I saw at school felt very familiar to me at the time. The more I think about it, the more I feel like it was Xi Lingzhou.

That being said, the person who brought her here...

This is Professor Ou Hai-chen, or Professor Ou.

To tell you the truth, Professor Ou has a lot of suspicious points. His area of expertise doesn't overlap with ours; he just came in as a substitute teacher for a general public class temporarily.

He graduated from a prestigious university and drives an expensive luxury car. It feels a bit "out of place" for him to be at our school.

And now he has even sent Xi Lingzhou here, I have a sneaking suspicion that he has other plans.

"This man...I know him." I said to the middle-aged doctor.

He widened his eyes: "You know him"

This posture, it's like they're about to suddenly grab me and make me pay medical bills.

“I’ve only seen her, I’m not familiar with her, but I can help you find her relatives,” I said.

"Alright, just leave me your phone number!" The middle-aged doctor seemed afraid I would run away and insisted I give him my number.

I couldn't resist his persistent requests. Hesitantly, I pulled out my phone, thinking of adding him on WeChat. I still had a chance to pretend I hadn't seen him.

The moment I took out my phone, a wave of warmth suddenly pressed against me from behind. The middle-aged doctor in front of me jumped back in fright, flinching violently, and his phone tumbled to the floor.

He pointed behind me and asked, “You, where did you come from!”

I don't need to look back to know it's Mu Wanchen, his body temperature and breath are so familiar to me.

Mú Wǎnchén reached out and took my phone, saying with some displeasure, "Don't just give your contact information to strangers."

He spoke, his eyes fixed coldly on the middle-aged doctor.

It was obvious that his displeasure wasn't directed at me, but at the middle-aged man.

Mu Wanchen bent down and picked up the phone on the ground. At a glance, he saw the photo on it and frowned slightly. He straightened up and asked the middle-aged doctor, "Where is this person"

His aura was completely different from ordinary people, condescending and looking down on everyone.

The middle-aged doctor's face turned pale, his eyes rolling around wildly. He suddenly whispered, "You... you aren't ordinary people, are you"

" "..." Mu Wanchen didn't answer the question at all, he just coldly lowered his eyes to look at him.

The middle-aged doctor was a little excited. He looked down the corridor, which was still empty. He whispered, "I have something to tell you all, listen carefully... Room 001 on the seventh floor of the south building, the password is xxxxxx..."

Huh

I was taken aback. What did he say

"...Be careful not to be discovered," he mumbled after finishing his sentence.

Suddenly, an elevator in the distance made a "ding dong" sound.

A middle-aged doctor quickly said, "The director is here, let's go."

He immediately rushed into the meeting room, putting on a smile and chatting with our student union members.

The head of the hospital was a woman, and she smiled at me and said, "Student, why don't you come in and sit down"

I forced out a smile: “My boyfriend and I came out for some fresh air. It was too crowded and noisy inside.”

The female director smiled and walked into the conference room herself.

I looked up at the building across the street, the seventh floor of the annex. Xi Linzhou should be there.

"Go or not" I raised an eyebrow at Mu Wanchen.

Mu Wanchen glanced at me indifferently: "I said no, will you listen Little princess."

This...

"Didn't you say I could do whatever I wanted" I rubbed my hands together.

"...Then you still ask me" He let out a soft hum, taking my hand and leading me towards the safety exit.

Mu Wanchen's cultivation path differed from that of his master.

Master can travel freely throughout the Three Realms and Ten Directions, while Mu Wanchen can only stay in the mortal realm.

But that's already pretty good, I saw him raise his hand and fling out a talisman. The talisman wobbled as it flew and covered the surveillance camera head.

The decoration of this floor doesn't resemble that of a hospital.

The corridor was empty. From the ceiling to the walls and floor, everything was made of a special white material, giving it a futuristic and technological feel.

And there were only a few padlocks on the wall, and next to each padlock was a retractable door.

To call this place the VIP section is an understatement.

But there was no one on duty here, only a few large screens behind the reception desk displaying the situation in various corners and rooms.

There was no one in any of the rooms.

Could that middle-aged doctor be lying to me With Mu Wanchen here, I'm not afraid he'll play tricks on me.

"This place is weird, be careful." Mu Wanchen warned me.

“I… I didn’t feel how strange it was… It was just empty, with no one there.”

"No, this floor, at least ten people…"

His words sent chills down my spine. I moved along the wall, sticking close to it, until I reached room 001. I peered through the surveillance window into the room.

Inside the hospital bed, all the medical equipment was ripped and scattered across the bed and floor, while the bed itself was empty.

I raised my hand and pressed the code, whispering to Mu Wanchen: "Xi Linzhou won't run away, right She ran away once before."

"...Take a look."

The sliding door creaked open, revealing an empty ward. As I took my first step inside, a "splat" echoed as something unidentified struck my shoulder.isappoint them.Her blunt words suddenly silenced the room.Everyone unconsciously looked toward the back of me.I could, perhaps, once again tread through the charred forest with supplies and first aid,...
