Different from the previous darkness, the interior of this round tower is brilliant and bright. The endless tower body does not lean against the spiral staircase, but is like concentric circles outside the spiral staircase, not connected to each other.
Xu Huo glanced at the spiral staircase behind him, and the staircase quickly retreated a few meters. A large round table appeared on the shrinking floor. There was no one around the table, but there were three things placed on the table.
A face-up playing card, a bloody knife, and a black round slice.
A chair appeared next to the table. He walked over and sat down. When he put his hands on the table, a two-finger-thick white book appeared in the middle.
At this time, he and three other items were connected together to form a square shape, but after waiting for a while, the second chair did not appear at the table.
Xu Huo stood up and stepped onto the spiral staircase again.
The round table disappeared, and the round tower and the spiral staircase returned to darkness. He returned along the original path and walked for more than ten hours before returning to the exit.
The office and Tang Guangbo who had disappeared when entering returned to their original state. Xu Huo closed the small door and turned to say goodbye to Tang Guangbo.
Tang Guangbo adjusted his glasses and said with a smile: "You can come to me anytime if you want to talk."
Xu Huo nodded, and as soon as he walked out, he was stopped by Sima Xiaoer, who pulled him into a ward, "You have been in the doctor's office during the meal time just now? Is the other party brainwashing you? Don't be fooled.
"
He said with a hint of fear in his eyes, "I just saw two other players on the third floor. They came in with me, and now they are a bit confused. Sometimes they say they are players, and sometimes they ask for a nurse.
Asking them to call their families and say they don’t want to be hospitalized...are they crazy?”
"Don't be so afraid." Xu Huo said, "Just stay in your current state and just go find the copy. It'll be fine."
"Is there really a copy here?" Sima Xiaoer clenched his fists, "The nurse just said that my family is coming to see me in the afternoon and asked me to meet them..."
"You don't even believe in yourself?" Xu Huo smiled, "Don't think too much."
Sima Xiaoer was temporarily persuaded, and he added: "You haven't eaten yet, I just said I would get you an apple, and the nurse sister said I would leave some food for you."
Xu Huo nodded and went out to find Yu Qingqing.
Zhou Ning specially left food for him in a thermos bucket. Yu Qingqing brought it up and gave it to him along with the medicine, and said: "Did you not take the medicine well in the past few days? I will keep an eye on you today."
Finished eating."
Xu Huo didn't say anything. He put the medicine into his mouth in front of her, drank water and swallowed it, then opened his mouth for her to check.
Yu Qingqing made sure there was no medicine hidden under his tongue before leaving with a satisfied smile.
Xu Huo poured the medicine and rice into the toilet.
After nap time in the afternoon, he went out for a walk and went around to sit outside the window of the reception room.
"...You should treat yourself well in the hospital and don't cause trouble to the hospital. You are an adult and we have no obligation to take care of you. We just collected money for your treatment for the sake of your dead parents. If you know how to
If you are grateful, you should take good care of yourself and be a good person in the future." A thick female voice spoke nonstop in the reception room, "Look at these accounts, they are all the money you borrowed well as you promised, and you will definitely pay us back in the future.
, it’s a good thing if you don’t drag us down for the rest of our lives!”
"Okay, okay," the accompanying doctor quickly interrupted the woman, "Mr. Sima's condition has actually improved. He is now living on the third floor and his mental state is very stable. If he maintains this state, he will be discharged from the hospital soon.
"
The woman sighed, "Xiao Er, it's not what aunt said to you. You are already so old. Don't be addicted to the game world. I'm really afraid that one day you will treat outsiders as people in the game and kill them..."
Xu Huo, who had a lazy posture, stood up after hearing this, pushed open the window suddenly, raised his chin at Sima Xiaoer, "Are you coming to play ball?"
He bowed his head and turned his head away like a grandson after being scolded, showing an ugly smile, "I'll talk to my aunt, you can find someone else."
"Aren't you an orphan? Where are your relatives from?" Xu Huo asked back.
Sima Xiaoer gradually came to his senses, stood up on the ground, and jumped out of the window as if to escape, "Fuck! I'll tell you what's wrong!"
Sima Xiaoer ran away, and the people in the reception room shouted that it was useless and left in anger.
Xu Huo looked at the doctor in the reception room, raised his hand and wiped it in the air, but he was still there.
"It seems that it is not so easy to interfere with other people's spiritual world..."
After a brief pause, he turned around to find Sima Xiaoer.
Sima Xiaoer had already run to the activity area and kept waving when he saw him.
Xu Huo walked over. The fool didn't feel anything was wrong at all. Instead, he emphasized excitedly: "I knew they must be liars. Don't get me wrong. I just wanted to cooperate with them to see what tricks they wanted to play. It was not at all
Believe it!"
"As long as you are happy." Xu Huo thought that was good for him.
Sima Xiaoer geared up, "I finally understand why the others were so upset. Good guy, this hospital is full of drama. Those who escaped yesterday saw not their own family members at all. How can the dead be resurrected? It must be
This is a method used by the hospital to completely confuse people!"
"Then are you still looking for the entrance to the dungeon?" Xu Huo asked.
"Of course we have to look for it." Sima Xiaoer said: "In a place as big as the hospital, we will find it sooner or later, and there will be no danger before the dungeon starts."
Xu Huo reminded: "At least find it before the end of the month. Some players haven't completed this month's dungeon yet. If they are stuck here, they will be sent to a difficult random dungeon in the future."
Sima Xiaoer nodded repeatedly, "I'll go tell them right now!"
After saying that, the person ran away in a hurry.
Xu Huo watched his back disappear at the door of the building before looking away. He looked up at the large steel characters "Seventeenth Hospital" on the roof of the building. He narrowed his eyes slightly. After a while, these characters gradually became blurry and transparent.
Soon it was completely invisible.
No changes have been made to the building.
He raised his eyebrows, and then returned to the building. Along the way, he kept seeing doctors leading different people in. Some patients cried before they could say anything when they saw the visitors, and some begged their families to let them be discharged.
They promise not to get sick again.
"Xu Huo!" Yu Qingqing came over with a smile on her face, "Your parents and your brother are coming to see you tonight."
Xu Huo suddenly stopped and looked at her with a cold expression.
Yu Qingqing was startled, and immediately put her hands behind her back and called to other nurses.
Several male nurses on the same floor noticed her movements and approached her in unison.
Xu Huo looked relaxed, "Everyone else is doing it during the day, why am I doing it at night?"
"So that's why you did it." Yu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, "Your brother just came back from abroad and seems to be very busy. He can only make time tonight."
