Chapter 128

Chapter 128

Darkness brings fear to people, but sometimes, light can also be terrifying.

The lights in the hospital at night are not normal white lights, nor warm yellow lights, but eerie blood-red lights that make one shudder.

The entire space seems to be covered in a layer of blood, sinister and weird.

Everyone unconsciously sped up their eating pace.

Cao Yu's speaking speed involuntarily quickened: "Just now we went to the consulting room and got some medical records that mentioned some interesting things. For example, all the patients here are related to the chemical factory."

This was new information, and even Jian Jing was listening attentively.

"Some are factory workers, some are their relatives, some live nearby..." He quickly finished explaining and analyzed, "There are many rumors about this hospital, we still need to investigate what the truth really is."

Zheng Keyan shrank her shoulders, not a very nice action, but she did it so cutely, like a young girl, her tone lazy and languid: "It's so late, should we investigate tomorrow after dawn?"

Coco blinked, seemingly confused: "But won't they be more active after dawn?"

Han Bo immediately chimed in: "With enough light, it will also be easier to deal with them. It's too scary at night."

Cao Yu considered for a moment, compromising: "Anyway, we have to find a place to spend the night first. Now there are two options, one is to go back upstairs to the wards, they are all empty; the other is to go to the next ward to see, there seem to be more beds there."

Coco actively voiced her opinion: "A single ward is definitely no good, it's full of bugs, gross."

"I just took a look at the ward next door." Jiang Baiyan interrupted, "There are many beds, relatively clean, and it has a bathroom."

Everyone couldn't help but show hesitation.

The upstairs had three rooms left, men and women could be separated for more privacy and quietness, but the rooms were smaller and would require moving some beds. The big ward downstairs allowed everyone to stay together, but would definitely be less convenient for the ladies, but people would feel less scared in a group.

The program team really knew how to make things difficult, huh.

Zheng Keyan immediately moved closer to Jian Jing: "Teacher Jian, where will you be staying? I'll stay with you."

Jian Jing bit her fork: "Ah?"

"I'll stay with you too." Coco didn't want to be left out, "I'm scared alone."

For this problem, the ladies had the same worries. Jian Jing wanted privacy too, she just wasn't that scared: "Why don't you two stay in a room? I can be by myself."

"That's too dangerous." Zheng Keyan hugged her arm, "Let's stay together."

Coco hugged her other arm, nodding quickly, and taking advantage of her young age, acted coquettishly: "Just leave the big downstairs ward for us guys. You boys can take the upstairs?"

Jiang Baiyan said dryly: "It's too far, we won't be able to rush down in time if something happens."

"You rushing down won't help anyway." Coco argued with him to the end, "We have Teacher Jian."

Jiang Baiyan simply ignored her and pleaded: "Teacher Jian, please come upstairs with us."

Jian Jing couldn't help laughing, waving her hand: "Let's just take the room next door, we probably won't get a good sleep tonight anyway - not with these creepy red lights."

Cao Yu was a married man and it would be inappropriate for him to agree, so he uncharacteristically hesitated.

Han Bo also kept quiet, elbowing Jiang Baiyan and exchanging looks with him.

Jiang Baiyan had no choice but to act very awkward: "That's not okay either, you're all ladies."

Jian Jing smiled: "But your expression is as if we're not the opposite sex, but a different species."

"Hahaha, right, little Bai you look like a little daughter-in-law." Zheng Keyan was a divorced woman, with fewer restrictions, teasing a little, "What are you being shy for?"

Jiang Baiyan quickly said: "I'm telling you I snore in my sleep, how embarrassing."

"Now we all know." Coco laughed loudly, making a face, "So it turns out you snore in your sleep."

Jiang Baiyan mumbled: "You will too when you're tired."

"Who says? Do you have evidence?"

The two bickered noisily, and the matter was dropped.

And mixed-gender lodging was not as awkward as imagined. Like all wards, each hospital bed in this big ward had an isolating curtain that blocked the view when drawn.

Although not convenient for changing clothes, no one would really be changing and washing up tonight anyway.

One would have to be an idiot not to guess that they would likely be filming a lot more content at night.

Everyone just briefly freshened up, removed their makeup, did some skincare, then applied their night cream, pretending to be going bare-faced on camera... Anyway, all very deliberate.

Jian Jing took her hair down and was too lazy to go through layers of skincare, opting to just slap on a sheet mask, reading the medical records under the eerie red lights.

Cao Yu's discoveries were quite astonishing.

Not every person in the medical records mentioned the factory. Some required cross-referencing names with newspaper reports, some needed the office's town map to deduce based on addresses, some needed to be compared with the previous iron plaques and experiment logs before comparing with the medical records.

"Teacher Jian, anything to add?" Cao Yu asked kindly with a cup in hand.

Danmu 1: What's Teacher Jian doing? Scaring us?

Danmu 2: Don't tell me she got possessed??

Danmu 3: It's not the first time supernatural things happened in a haunted house

She sat like that for about two minutes before silently grabbing her glasses by the pillow and putting them on, then soundlessly sliding off the bed.

Danmu 1: Scared me to death, turns out she just needed the bathroom

Comment 2: Haha I'm the same, it takes me five minutes to fully wake up

At this moment the audience was still very cheerful, but in the next second, just as Jian Jing landed, something abnormal happened.

The extinguished lights lit up the room again just like when they were first turned on.

But unlike the previous red light from top to bottom, this time, it was a green light from bottom to top, about ten centimeters off the ground, giving off an eerie glow.

Comment 1: Freaking scared me to death

Comment 2: So green, ready for the green light forest

Comment 3: Stop joking around! Look at the wall!!

Words suddenly appeared on the previously empty wall.

GoToHell

Jian Jing stopped in her tracks, stared at the wall closely, then without saying anything, continued to the bathroom.

Seconds later, the lights went out again.

Comment 1: Motion sensor lights, creepy enough

Comment 2: Anyone else would have jumped, and not sleep anymore

Comment 3: Such vicious thoughts [doge]

...

Jian Jing came out of the bathroom, saw the dark room again, and seemed a bit surprised. She stood still for a moment, carefully walked around a few hospital beds, and went to the door to peek out.

The camera panned to the hallway outside.

The audience also saw the scene outside.

In the hazy green light, a "person" wearing a white coat stood at the door, seeming to be observing something through the glass window.

Everyone was startled, and very curious, wondering who this doctor who suddenly appeared was.

As if expecting the audience's reaction, the camera slowly turned its head to face the camera directly.

That was not a head, it was a large octopus.

Comment 1: WTF WTF WTF!

Comment 2: Damn, I thought it was Resident Evil, turns out it's Alien invasion?

Comment 3: It's the call of Cthulhu! Cthulhu giving out candy!!

Comment 4: I just want to know what Jian Jing is doing?

...

The octopus man walked away.

The camera switched to the indoor scene. Jian Jing crawled onto the bed in a very strange posture, but did not sleep again. Instead, she seemed to be thinking about something.

Time lapse at N times speed.

At half past twelve, the low hoarse roar sounded again from somewhere in the room.

But this time, it was very close.

"What sound?" Zheng Keyan asked groggily.

Jian Jing replied: "Monster."

"What?!" The others were awake now, and reflexively wanted to get out of bed to check it out.

But Jian Jing immediately said, "Don't move, don't get out of bed."

Too late, a faint green light lit up next to the bed.

She immediately flipped off the covers and used a thin blanket to block the light: "Block the light, it will attract the monster over."

Although unclear about what's going on, through Jian Jing's performance so far, she had gained everyone's trust. No one would be stupid enough to question her at this time. Everyone quickly did as told.

At almost the same time, the monster's face appeared at the door again.
