Qin Nuo stopped bothering Yue Qin's scratching and exited room 302.
He then wandered around the psychiatric hospital.
Every corner of the hospital was desolate, exuding a sinister aura.
Moreover, it was shrouded in white mist all day, with dim lighting, perfectly creating the atmosphere of a horror movie.
During this time, Qin Nuo encountered several Players who were tending to difficult patients. They looked surprised when they saw Qin Nuo but didn't pay much attention, pushing the patients away.
"The main quest says to investigate the truth behind the deaths of everyone in the psychiatric hospital, indicating that something terrifying happened here, causing everyone to die."
"But what does 'mastermind' mean?"
"Does it mean someone orchestrated all this from behind the scenes? Killed everyone in the psychiatric hospital?"
As Qin Nuo walked down the corridor, he analyzed the clues of the main quest.
So far, only one instance task had been completed, and no other clues had been obtained. With just these two leads, it was impossible to conduct a thorough investigation.
Just then, Qin Nuo raised an eyebrow.
At the far end of the corridor, a caregiver was pushing a patient toward the lobby.
The caregiver was the blond man, who also saw Qin Nuo and turned away expressionlessly.
The patient in the wheelchair was drooling, seemingly emotionally unstable, occasionally letting out a couple of sickly laughs.
Upon reaching the lobby, perhaps it was the light from outside the door, or maybe the manor outside, that made the patient unusually excited, shaking wildly in the wheelchair.
Then, he suddenly stood up and rushed outside, only to be stopped by the locked door.
The patient frantically banged his head against the glass, and soon, the glass was smeared with blood!
The blond man coldly commanded, "Come back, sit down!"
The patient laughed maniacally, hitting the glass with increasing force, his face covered in blood, "Out! I want out!"
"I'll say it again, come back and sit down!"
The blond man spoke again.
Seeing no effect, he suddenly rushed forward, grabbed the patient's head, and roughly dragged him back.
In the struggle, the patient somehow pulled out a fruit knife and swiftly slashed at the blond man's throat.
The blond man reacted quickly, stepping back.
But a bloodstain was still left on his neck.
Fortunately, the wound wasn't deep.
If it had been an inch deeper, his throat might have been cut open, and blood would have gushed out!
He touched his neck, looking at the blood on his fingers.
The blond man's forehead veins bulged, his face darkened to the extreme.
The patient, holding the fruit knife, continued to laugh, repeating, "I want out!"
"It feels like opening the door to a new world," Qin Nuo murmured.
"Maybe they ran out of budget and couldn't afford to renovate this side, why imagine so much," the Blood-Eyed Ghost retorted.
Just as he finished speaking, the Blood-Eyed Ghost suddenly said, "Hmm? There's a strange smell."
"What smell?"
"Can't say, over by the restroom, go take a look."
The restroom was also in ruins.
For an ordinary person, such a sinister place would be enough to deter them, but for Qin Nuo, the entire psychiatric hospital was eerie and bizarre, so it made no difference, and he went in directly.
Qin Nuo opened one of the toilet stalls.
The filthy environment and suffocating stench made one want to retch.
Following the Blood-Eyed Ghost's guidance, Qin Nuo pushed open the doors of each toilet stall.
Bang!!
Suddenly, a dull sound came from the innermost toilet stall.
The thin, decayed toilet door broke open with a large hole!
"Is there someone in such a place?"
Qin Nuo was taken aback, pulling out his bone-cracking hammer, and approached that spot.
As he pushed open the toilet door, Qin Nuo took a step back, giving himself a safe distance.
The toilet door opened, revealing a mass of barbed wire, with sharp hooks on the wires.
A person was trapped inside, with the wires densely piercing through their body, the barbs hooking into the flesh.
This person's clothes had been stripped off, their entire body covered in congealed blood, and the countless wounds made one's skin crawl.
The man's eyes were also bloodied, his eyeballs gouged out.
Seemingly aware of someone entering, the man moved slightly.
But the dense wires also shifted, the barbs tearing the flesh apart, blood staining the wires red, dripping onto the floor.
Even though Qin Nuo had seen many horrifying scenes, this one still made him extremely uncomfortable.
What kind of twisted person could do such a thing?
What had this punished person done to deserve such terrible torture?
Or was it just a personal hobby?
"I am guilty, unforgivably guilty, please forgive me, I am guilty, unforgivably guilty..."
The man uttered a hoarse voice, trembling and fearful, repeating these words.
As if constantly confessing to someone...
