Thriller World, Black Cloud City, Blue River Sanatorium.
In the lobby on the first floor, a dozen people were standing there, some with calm expressions, while others were in panic.
"Whoa, what on earth is this place? I'm obviously at my house. I just wanted to pour water. I opened the bedroom door and ended up here...Mom, help me!"
"Shut up, if you don't want to live, just keep crying!"
When Sheng Nuan walked into the hall, what she saw was a chaotic and depressing scene.
A boy wearing a white T-shirt and pants was crying for his mother with tears in his eyes. Next to him, a girl in JK clothes was also pale and about to cry.
There was also a middle-aged man wearing a factory uniform who was walking back and forth looking around anxiously... Seeing that the black mist outside had rushed to the entrance of the hospital, he turned pale and quickly stepped back.
At this moment, a surprised voice sounded: "Sister Sheng!"
Sheng Nuan raised her eyes and saw Chen Chen, wearing jeans and a sweatshirt, rushing towards her in a few steps, his eyes full of joy: "Sister Sheng, we have met again."
After returning to the real world for more than a month, Chen Chen kept checking Sheng Nuan's data, but found nothing.
I thought I wouldn't run into him again, but I didn't expect to run into him again.
Sheng Nuan knew in her heart that Chen Chen had become her new target, and he was also her favorite type of puppy, but she just couldn't get enough of it.
She reluctantly smiled at Chen Chen: "Yes, what a coincidence."
After she finished speaking, she noticed something. Sheng Nuan slowly turned her head and met He Cheng's extremely complicated gaze.
The person who used to be the most arrogant and frivolous, calling her a "sweetheart", now has a complicated expression, and there is deep pain in his eyes.
After a moment of pause, Sheng Nuan walked towards him: "Ah Cheng."
He Cheng pursed his lips and made fists with both hands: "Where is Lao Xie?"
Sheng Nuan remained silent.
He Cheng closed his eyes and took a deep breath...
Even though he already knew it, when he personally asked about the result, he still couldn't help but feel sad.
Sheng Nuan was at a loss for what to say, when the sound of high heels sounded.
Everyone turned around and saw a woman wearing a nurse's uniform walking slowly and leisurely... She was obviously dressed as a nurse, but the high heels and heavy makeup on her face were inexplicably weird.
"Welcome to the Blue River Sanatorium for internship. I am the head nurse who will receive you... Your internship period is only one week. Now, I will take you to see where you live."
The smile on the head nurse's face seemed to be carved into it, and it didn't change even a little bit when she spoke.
She turned around and walked up the stairs, and the players immediately followed her.
A few newcomers fell behind. They were still a little hesitant at first, but when they saw that everyone else was following them, the boy who was still crying just now, the JK girl, and the middle-aged man in uniform also trembled and followed behind.
The head nurse took them upstairs... But just as they were passing by the corner of the stairs on the third floor, Sheng Nuan was caught off guard and suddenly heard a somewhat familiar voice.
After a pause, she frowned and immediately took two steps forward to the door of the first office next to the stairs. Next to her, He Cheng also followed in a daze.
The office door was ajar, and when she saw the people inside, Sheng Nuan was stunned for a moment, and her whole body froze.
Xie Lan!
That face was clearly that of Xie Lan, but his whole appearance had completely changed. He was wearing a meticulous white coat, his skin color had turned a bloodless cold white, and under his gold-rimmed glasses, his eyes were extremely cold.
He was talking to the doctor next to him, and he seemed to notice something. Liang Liang raised his eyes and looked over... then he looked back lightly.
The moment he looked at Sheng Nuan, his eyes were cold and indifferent, as if he didn't recognize her at all.
Sheng Nuan's heart felt as if someone had grasped it for a moment.
The original Xie Lan was cold but popular, but the Xie Lan in front of him only had the same coldness in this world.
"Lao Xie..."
He Cheng was also stunned and moved forward subconsciously. At this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind him.
"That's Doctor Xie."
The head nurse appeared beside them at some point and looked at her with a half-smile: "Believe me, don't offend Dr. Xie if you provoke anyone. Otherwise, you will face consequences that you cannot bear."
After saying that, the head nurse glanced at Sheng Nuan and He Cheng coldly: "Follow me, the interns had better not run around."
Next to him, Chen Chen looked away from the people in the office, suppressed the bright color in his eyes, and said softly to Sheng Nuan: "Sister Sheng, let's go."
Sheng Nuan looked back, paused, turned and left.
Compared to Sheng Nuan's seemingly calm expression, He Cheng's eye circles instantly turned red.
He knows that when players die in the horror world, they will either become heretics, such as those paper figures in the previous world, or they will be assimilated into NPCs.
As if being formatted, this kind of NPC only has its original body left, with no memory of its life.
Xie Lan, who was in the office just now, was obviously still the same as before, but the look he looked over showed no emotion at all, and was as cold as ice.
He Cheng knew in his heart that that was no longer the boy he grew up with. The real Xie Lan had died in the last copy.
But the moment I saw it with my own eyes, I still felt great sadness in my heart.
Sheng Nuan walked silently among the crowd. She didn't know that the moment she turned around and left, Xie Lan, who was originally expressionless, looked up at her back again in the office.
It seems calm, but deep inside the pupils are extremely dark...
