"Confirm to start the game."
"Select Chapter—Seventh Sanatorium: Hard Difficulty."
As soon as the words fell, Xu Ziyue fell asleep, and the system space suddenly went dark, and then immediately lit up again.
Xu Ziyue woke up in a relatively quiet environment.
But he woke up to find himself sleeping in a hospital bed.
The logo of the hospital is too obvious, white pillows, white sheets, white walls, and light blue curtains and a small U-shaped track on the ceiling around the bed for hanging bottles.
I sat up and looked left and right. There were three beds in a room, and my own bed was right in the middle.
"There are 300 players in this game. The scope of attack: Except for the players, all staff NPCs in the nursing home."
Xu Ziyue couldn't help stunned, there were too many people in this game.
Three hundred players, how many NPCs should be
Xu Ziyue wore the white slippers beside the bed and walked to the window. There were many people exercising and wearing hospital clothes beside the fitness equipment outside the window.
Although it was said to be a sanatorium, Xu Ziyue felt that the things here were basically the same as those of a hospital. But he had never been to a sanatorium, so he didn't know what a real sanitarium was like.
The beds on the left and right of Xu Ziyue were clean and empty, the quilts on them were neatly folded, and the sheets were not even wrinkled.
Xu Ziyue noticed that there was only a card at the head of his bed in a card holder attached to the wall, and on it was written his name, gender, age and illness.
[Name: Xu Ziyue
Sex: Male
Age: 18
Symptoms: Delusions of Love
Xu Ziyue thought about it for a long time, but maybe his knowledge was not broad enough, so he didn't even know what "love delusion" was.
There were no such cards on other hospital beds, so Xu Ziyue could only think that he was the only one in this ward.
Xu Ziyue first looked at his bedside table, and then saw some necessities of life from it, and then went into the toilet to have a look... Then he blushed and walked out.
What he didn't expect was that in another world, those strawberry marks on his body didn't fade at all.
If you look at the time, it is true that it will not disappear immediately. But Gu Ze made it so dense and dense that even if Xu Ziyue pulled the collar of his hospital gown to the highest level, he couldn't cover it all. So in the end he just had to let it go... whatever.
A nurse walked past the door of the ward.
But after walking two or three steps, she backed back, and then looked at Xu Ziyue in the ward, just like their title "Angels in White", "Are you new patients in Ward No. 703? You can look around during the day. Look, it's not good to be sick in the ward every day."
Xu Ziyue nodded obediently and said sweetly, "Okay, thank you sister!"
The female nurse smiled embarrassedly, "By the way, remember to finish dinner before six o'clock in the evening, and then hurry back to the room. I have something else to do, so let's go first."
Xu Ziyue waved to the female nurse who left, then looked back at his ward, turned and walked out.
It is said that it is a nursing home, but it is really no different from a hospital. But... Xu Ziyue looked at the retractable iron gates that he and other rooms had at the door... This thing... ordinary hospitals wouldn't do it.
Sure enough, he would be wrong to think that he finally arrived at a world that is not the background of an escape game this time.
Nurses, doctors, and convalescent patients have been in the corridors of the nursing home from time to time.
Every nurse's appearance is closer to the word "gentle", and all the doctors also seem to be gentle and well-educated.
As for the patients in convalescence... Some are frightened, some are dazed, and some look sneaky.
Of course there are some that look normal.
But it's not clear if it's really normal or fake.
Xu Ziyue rubbed his arms, then stepped on his slippers and went downstairs from the elevator.
In previous games, he was trapped in schools, cruise ships, villages, and secret rooms with other players.
And this time, their map is in a nursing home.
But this nursing home is not small.
It has its own cafeteria, leisure gardens, and of course everyone's room.
Xu Ziyue even walked to the gate, but this gate only seemed to allow staff like nurses and doctors to enter and exit. For example, Xu Ziyue and other players were blocked by a transparent wall and could not enter or leave at all.
But his goal is not outside, so Xu Ziyue doesn't care whether he can go out or not.
But think about it, how many NPCs should there be in a nursing home with 300 players? Xu Ziyue just wanted to find the best-looking boss, so he might read the people in the nursing home first.
Yes, Xu Ziyue has already decided that the BOSS must be the best looking one.
After all, this was the conclusion he came to after going through several worlds.
Because there are no fellow patients, Xu Ziyue doesn't know anything about the details of the background of this escape game. However, after thinking of the female nurse's reminder, Xu Ziyue at least knew a message, that is, he had to go back to his ward before six o'clock.
And when he came down, he saw the wall clock hanging in the lobby on the first floor of the inpatient area.
The above time is after twelve noon.
So for now, he is not in a hurry to go back.
Xu Ziyue went to the cafeteria for a lunch that usually consisted of meat, vegetables, soup and milk. In fact he thought it was the best meal he had ever eaten!
If he eats so well for a while... Xu Ziyue will be very satisfied.
After eating, Xu Ziyue held a bottle of milk and walked to a building adjacent to the "inpatient area". In fact, "inpatient area" was what he called it, and the nurse said it was the residential area.
But to Xu Ziyue, there is no difference.
There was no one in this building at noon, only a few security guards with electric batons guarded the first floor.
Seeing Xu Ziyue getting closer, they stopped in front of Xu Ziyue with a bad face, and said, "It is forbidden for patients to approach here."
Xu Ziyue wasn't ignorant either, so he immediately apologized and left.
Afterwards, Xu Ziyue went for a walk in the garden again, and then looked at the store in the sanatorium, where there were some snacks and various supplies.
But he has no money...
Moreover, the people entering and leaving the hospital are also nursing home employees, and there are no patients.
That is to say, patients have no channels to buy things in stores.
When Xu Ziyue was a little tired, he looked at the nurses and other employees who were exercising with the patients downstairs, but he couldn't find the person who might be the boss, so he went back.
But this time, when he walked to the building adjacent to the inpatient area, he saw a person in hospital clothes lying on a hospital bed and being pushed into the building.
If you ignore that the man in the hospital suit is tied to the bed with something like a black belt, and ignore his constant struggle... it may seem normal.
But the current situation, no matter what, is not normal.
Xu Ziyue wanted to take a closer look, but he was stopped again.
No way, he could only stand under this building and watch a person in a hospital suit, either on a hospital bed or in a wheelchair, being pushed into this building every ten or twenty minutes.
Without exception, they were all tied up with leather straps.
It wasn't until about an hour later that one person was pushed out.
Xu Ziyue recognized that he was the first person to be pushed in that he saw.
When the man entered, he was still struggling with strength, but at this time, he could only lie on the hospital bed and twitch.
And when he came out, the belts on his body were all unfastened.
But he had absolutely no strength to struggle.
After he was pushed out of the building and pushed back to the inpatient area, Xu Ziyue quickly followed him and went upstairs in the elevator.
This person's ward is on the fifth floor.
Xu Ziyue stood beside his hospital bed and clearly saw the dense needle eyes on his arms with rolled up sleeves.
Xu Ziyue had a cold sweat on his back, and then returned to his seventh floor by himself.
He saw the female nurse who reminded him at the front desk of the elevator on the seventh floor.
Xu Ziyue thought for a while, then lay down on the counter at the front desk, "Sister Nurse."
The female nurse raised her head to see Xu Ziyue, smiled in surprise, and then asked gently, "What's wrong? Is there anything I can help with?"
Xu Ziyue shook his head, "That's not true. I just wanted to ask a few questions."
The female nurse nodded, without the slightest impatience, "Then ask."
"I want to know what the building next door does? Why aren't we allowed to come near?"
The female nurse answered this question fluently, as if she had answered it many times.
She said: "Because there is a treatment area. After all, everyone here is here to treat and recuperate. And our responsibility is to make everyone's body better, so the treatment area is also essential."
Xu Ziyue twitched the corners of his mouth, feeling very mysterious.
How could that be therapy... It looks like he was electrocuted.
"So all those pushed in are for treatment?"
The female nurse nodded, "We have arranged treatment for everyone who came in, but because of the shortage of treatment rooms and the severity of the illness, the time and frequency of each person are different."
Xu Ziyue asked a question that he was very worried about: "...What about me?"
The author has something to say: ok! Finish!
