The group arrived at the restroom that Gu Shanshan had mentioned.
The restroom is unisex with only two compartments. On the sink at the entrance, there’s a sign that reads: “Wash your hands after using the restroom, cleanliness accompanies me.”
I don’t know if it’s clean, but the sink now looks like a crime scene.
The white basin contains traces of blood-red liquid, and no nails can be seen, possibly washed away down the drain. There are also a few sticky pieces on the basin wall that appear to be blood clots.
Qi Chanyang walked up to the sink, reached out, and touched the red liquid residue inside the basin, then brought it to his nose.
“It’s blood,” he said.
“Damn!” Xue Kai couldn’t help but step back.
The newcomers also crowded together, resembling chicks huddling for warmth.
Qi Chanyang looked at the sink and suddenly reached out to turn on the faucet.
Clean water flowed out from the tap, quickly washing away the reddish-brown stains of blood that still lingered in the sink.
Qi Chanyang turned off the tap and turned to ask, “Who was the one who turned on the tap while you were washing your hands just now?”
Gu Shanshan’s face changed, and she looked at Lu Xiaoqin.
Lu Xiaoqin was nearly exhausted, and she tremblingly raised her hand and said, “It was me.”
“Please turn it on again.”
Saying that, Qi Chanyang stepped aside.
Lu Xiaoqin walked up to the faucet, took a deep breath, and then reached out her hand to turn the faucet gently.
Unlike when Qi Chanyang turned the faucet just now, and clean water immediately flowed out, this time it seemed like something was blocking the water pipe, making a sour and irritating “clattering” sound.
Immediately after that, the faucet spurted out a clump of hair with a “puff.”
After whatever was blocking the water pipe was sprayed out, small traces of reddish-brown blood flowed from the faucet.
The bathroom fell into silence. Lu Xiaoqin covered her mouth, frightened tears and cold sweat falling together.
Qi Chanyang immediately turned off the faucet and then turned it back on.
The water that flowed out once again returned to being transparent.
“What’s going on?” Gu Shanshan asked, embracing the weeping Lu Xiaoqin, as she spoke up.
Qi Chanyang looked at Gu Shanshan.
“You try turning it on too.”
Gu Shanshan hesitated for a moment, understanding what was going on.
She walked up to the sink and turned the switch.
Just like Lu Xiaoqin, thumb-sized chunks of flesh were sprayed out along with the blood.
Gu Shanshan closed the faucet and immediately realized, “Because when we were in the cafeteria, both Xiaoqin and I mentioned that we saw eyeballs?”
Qi Chanyang nodded heavily, his gaze scanning around, then he suddenly froze.
“What about Jie Fangcheng?”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
The eight people looked at each other.

Qi Chanyang: “…”
No need to discuss this here. Qi Chanyang walked to the restroom door and took a look outside.
On the field, the peculiar-looking rookie teammate wearing a T-shirt and jeans was playing ball with NPC number six.
NPC number six is nearly two meters tall, as thin as a skeleton, and at this moment, stands alone on the southern half of the court, holding a racket, waiting to receive the shuttlecock.
Xie Fangcheng also has a racket and is serving the shuttlecock.
With a “bang,” the shuttlecock is sent from the northern half of the court. Number Six slowly raises his racket, but the shuttlecock has already hit the ground.
Number Nine, standing nearby, holds a flag as the referee and waves it in a somewhat proper manner.
“Jie Fangcheng, victory,” he declares.
Qi Chanyang: “…”
Unable to hold back, he shouts, “Hey!”
Jie Fangcheng turns his head.
Qi Chanyang looks at Jie Fangcheng’s relaxed expression. This guy even stretches as if he just finished exercising. Does he have any idea that they are currently inside the Infinite Game?
He glances at the people in their team.
Lu Xiaoqin can’t even stand steady and is hiding in Gu Shanshan’s arms, her shoulders trembling. Gu Shanshan appears calm, but her face is pale. Even the onlookers remain silent, their eyes filled with fear and dread.
Qi Chanyang, on the other hand, is not particularly afraid. The difficulty and level of terror of the first-level missions are limited after all. He is just a good person, putting in effort to ensure that these newcomers can survive a bit longer.
And this Jie Fangcheng! Why is he more intimate with NPCs than with players?? What kind of person is he?
Qi Chanyang grits his teeth and says, “You, come over here!”
Jie Fangcheng hands his racket to Number Nine, then encourages him with a pat on the shoulder, seemingly saying, “Look, badminton isn’t difficult to play. You can definitely defeat Number Six. Come on!”
Everyone: “…”
After Jie Fangcheng reaches the entrance of the restroom, he looks surprised and asks, “Why is everyone here? Are you all queuing for the restroom?”
“…” Qi Chanyang ignores him and heads towards the washbasin.
It’s still Gu Shanshan who quickly explains to him what happened just now.
After listening, Jie Fangcheng simply nods and follows them to the washbasin. He casually turns on the tap, and as expected, blood starts flowing out.
Once again, the restroom falls into complete silence.
Qi Chanyang feels a bit resentful in his heart, still not looking at Jie Fangcheng, and instead, facing the group, he begins his analysis.
“It seems that because you guys mentioned seeing eyeballs in the cafeteria, now when you turn on the tap, blood and pieces of flesh are coming out.”
The sound of flowing water continues…
“But you didn’t trigger the killing rule, so NPCs shouldn’t attack you. Therefore, if you encounter a similar situation again, your response should be to pretend you didn’t see anything. Don’t let the NPCs detect anything unusual.”
Gurgling water continues…
“I’ve checked, and it seems there are no other clues around the court. Later, we’ll go to the adjacent reading room and see if we can find anything there.”
Splat… Splat…
Qi Chanyang couldn’t help but turn back and ask, “Why didn’t you turn off the tap??”
The sink now looks like a scene of dismemberment, with nails, hair, suspicious organ fragments, and chunks of flesh all piled together, emitting a bloody smell.
The water pipe seems to be blocked by something large, and it keeps making a “splat” sound without spitting anything out. Jie Fangcheng kindly pats the water pipe, and half an eyeball wrapped in hair pops out. Everyone’s hair stands on end as if something is crawling on their backs.
But Jie Fangcheng remains unfazed as he says, “I’m just a bit curious. I wonder how much inventory there can be in the end.”
“…”
“What’s wrong?” he asks.
Lu Xiaoqin’s voice trembles, “Aren’t you afraid? What if, in the end, a female ghost or something crawls out from the water pipe?”
“Hmm?”
“Aren’t you afraid that in the end… something like a female ghost will crawl out from the water pipe?”
As soon as she mentions it, everyone looks at the water tap with horror, as if they expect a long-haired female ghost to crawl out from there any second.
Jie Fangcheng chuckles, “What’s there to be afraid of? If you’re already dead, aren’t you a female ghost too? If anything, she should be afraid of you. The water pipe is so narrow, she crawls in one section, and you cut off that section. She crawls in another section, and you cut that off too. Can’t you defeat her?”
“…”
Seeing Lu Xiaoqin’s expression, as if she’s about to pass out, Jie Fangcheng thinks for a moment and reassures her, “Even if you can’t defeat her, well, you’ve already died once, so you should be used to it if you die again.”
Everyone: “…”
They all look at him with speechless expressions. As they speak, the water pipe finally manages to “sputter” out the last pieces of flesh, and from the pipes comes the sound of water being forcibly pumped out with a “rumbling” noise. The flow of blood reduces, and soon, only a few drops remain.
Immediately after, with a “sizzle” sound, the normal, clear water reluctantly sprays out and fills the washbasin.
Jie Fangcheng taps the water tap again and remarks, “That’s it? It hasn’t even been three minutes?”
There was originally a layer of human tissue, minced meat, hair, and half an eyeball gathered in the sink. It was such a horrifying sight.
With his comment, even Lu Xiaoqin feels as though a voice inside her is asking in response: Is that all?
Qi Chanyang has never encountered newcomers with such a unique style before, and for a moment, he doesn’t know what to say.
But when he turns his head, he sees that the few newcomers, who were originally as frightened as quails, now have a subtle expression of speechlessness on their faces.
Regardless of how strange the situation is, at least everyone is not as afraid anymore.
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone’s morale is not so low now, Qi Chanyang claps his hands.
“Let’s go to the reading room now and see if we can find more clues.”
Just as he finishes speaking, they hear a gloomy voice coming from the entrance of the restroom, “What are you all gathering here for?”
The doctor stands at the doorway, his eyeballs shifting as his gaze sweeps over each person, examining their integrity as if inspecting food.
Inside the restroom, there was silence. The morale that had slightly improved just a moment ago plummeted once again. Xue Kai, who was closest to the door, couldn’t help but think, “Damn it.” At this moment, the doctor’s gaze had shifted onto him.
“Mr. Xue, why aren’t you playing ball? What are you doing here?”
Whether it’s an illusion or not, Xue Kai feels like the doctor’s already large eyeballs now appear even bigger, as if they are about to burst out of their eye sockets.
He takes a step back, his voice trembling with fear. “I…”
“Going to the restroom,” Jie Fangcheng’s voice comes from the innermost part of the restroom, with a hint of bewilderment, as if the doctor asked a rather foolish question, “Of course, when you come to the restroom, it’s to use it. Otherwise, are we here to have a group meal?”
“So many people using the restroom together?” the doctor asks with a sinister tone.
“Oh, we’ve all finished, and we’re just waiting to wash our hands. But the sink is clogged. Perfect timing, you can come and see how to clean it up,” Jie Fangcheng replies confidently, as if he’s commanding a subordinate.
A true hero!!
Xue Kai’s eyes well up with tears of gratitude.
The doctor falls silent, his voice somewhat clenched in anger. “Stop standing around here! Go do what you need to do!”
The players quickly file out of the restroom.
Jie Fangcheng is among the last ones, following the rest of the group. However, his pace is slow, and he gradually falls behind, creating some distance from the main group.
The doctor standing at the doorway now directs his gaze towards the sink, wrinkling his brow with disgust.
It has been said many times already, but Dr. Han just won’t stop throwing the failed products directly into the sewer, grinding them up.
Shouldn’t we consider reporting this to the hospital director next time? If the director gets angry, who knows, he might devour Dr. Han?
If that happens, all the patients from this batch will be his.
One by one, players walked past the doctor, and in the end, only Jie Fangcheng remained.
As he watched it seemed that the person was also about to brush past him, but suddenly, the doctor felt a weight on his shoulder.
A thin, pale hand was placed on his shoulder, and the doctor’s eyes shifted, slowly moving his gaze from those hands to the face above them.
I have to say, even as an NPC, the doctor knows that the player before their eyes looks extremely handsome.
A pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes, tall and slender figure, fair and delicate skin, and a slim waist, making them appear like a fragile ceramic figurine.
The doctor has encountered numerous such delicate figurines, with a tender and delicious taste, making them quite appetizing.
His mouth was about to involuntarily secrete some mucus when he heard the voice of the ceramic figurine from beside his ear.
“Don’t you like to eat those in the sink? So picky?”
The doctor locked eyes with the player named Jie Fangcheng.
The doctor widened his eyes, somewhat puzzled.
In the past, no patient dared to meet his gaze, but the person before him just turned his head to look at him. His jet-black eyes scrutinized the “person” in front of him, resembling inorganic obsidian, looking down from a high vantage point as if observing something filthy.
Then, crimson lips curled up, revealing a sinister smile.
“Or…”
“Do you only like to eat things that are alive?”
After saying that, Jie Fangcheng straightened his body and patted the doctor’s shoulder.
“Being picky isn’t good.”
The doctor’s eyes shifted.
Jie Fangcheng smiled, “I’m right, aren’t I, Dr. He?”
.
Is he trying to punish the NPC with their own rule ? (Since they can’t be picky with food too)
Very interesting!
Thank you for the chapter!!
Hmm I wonder how did MCguess the doctor’s… peculiar tastes 😂
Thank you for the chapter ❤️
LOL the doctor being frustrated at his coworker who is always clogging up the pipes with discarded human bits!!
I mean, imagine having to be the one to deal with the mess every time. I bet the other doctor doesn’t bother to. After for our odd but charming MC to be a manager there are apparently interpersonal conflicts between coworkers regardless of what reality you’re in 🤣
