Chapter 75
Su Jingyan put his hands on the door, listening to the noise outside.
He breathed in through the mask and lowered his eyes, but hesitated for a while, before carefully pushing the door open. He then stretched out half of his head and tilted his neck to see what was going on outside the door.
As soon as he clearly saw the scene behind the door, his brows twitched involuntarily, his Adam’s apple slid, and his body tensed up.
The strangest thing was that it was not too late now. Normally, the hospital should be full of patients wearing hospital uniforms or family members coming to visit.
So it was even more strange that after he opened the door, and looked around, there was no one outside the door. Not only was there no one, even the lights in the corridor were not turned on. It was empty and a bit eerie…
Even…
Su Jingyan frowned and looked into the distance.
Even the on duty nurse who should definitely be there on weekdays was gone…
This… What was going on?
Su Jingyan kept looking around while standing at the door, looking left and right, up and down.
At this moment, his mood could be described as frightened, his heart was beating in his throat, and he seemed a little confused and flustered.
He had a sense of helplessness and anxiety that he was the only one in the whole hospital.
At this moment, he felt that his worldview had suffered a strong rupture and was completely unable to be pieced back together. He even felt that the reality he had been in was covered with a mysterious veil, and it seemed that something or secrets that he didn’t know were hidden.
Should he go out and take a look?
To find out what happened?
With this idea in mind, Su Jingyan took a tentative step forward. Suddenly, his expression froze in thought, slightly dazed again. He seemed to have suddenly remembered something, and paused on the spot. Soon, he retracted his legs again.
There was no other reason, just….
Su Jingyan lowered his eyes, blinked, and pursed his lips in a small arc, a bit pitifully.
Just now, when Lu Yichen was pressing him on the bed…
He promised Lu Yichen not to wander around…

The leader’s eyes widened and he said behind him with a look of joy, “Look, Mo Anke is right! That masked man is really still here!”
Su Jingyan recognized these four people at a glance as the group of four who had just broken into his ward.
Perhaps it was from some kind of special intuition, Su Jingyan’s brows jumped and he took a step back into the door completely subconsciously. He even reached out his hand unhesitatingly to grab the door handle, planning to quickly close the door.
But his hands and feet were a little too slow in the end. Wang Zida could be said to be sprinting at an inhuman speed of 100 meters a second in comparison. While Su Jingyan was still slightly dazed, he immediately ran up and quickly slammed his hand against the door with a “bang” sound. The loud noise echoed in the otherwise empty hall as Wang Zida tried his best to stop Su Jingyan from closing the door.
Su Jingyan, a socially awkward person who was not good at speaking, had never encountered such a scene before. He shrank his neck, let go of the handle, and stood there at a loss.
Zhou Shangchao and the other three followed up, panting, with uncontrollable surprise and excitement on their faces.
Damn, after struggling for so long, they finally found a key NPC.
Su Jingyan pressed his back against the wall.He shrank his neck, lowered his eyes, and consciously avoided everyone’s attention.
Zhou Shangchao couldn’t help but step forward to get straight to the point, “Hey, are there any clues you can provide?”
Su Jingyan frowned in confusion. He didn’t understand, so he naturally chose to remain silent.
Wang Zida and Zhou Shangchao exchanged glances, both saw a little confusion in each other’s eyes.
Mo Anke hid behind Li Mengshan, revealing only one of her eyes to secretly observe Su Jingyan’s expression. She glanced left and right and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the bones she saw the first time were not there. But overall, it was still not the same, and they shouldn’t let their guard down too much.
Wang Zida read the game guide and knew that the NPC characters in this copy were different from the previous NPCs, so he decided to take a roundabout approach, intending to sneak in and get closer first, and asked, “Why are you hospitalized?”
Su Jingyan was extremely nervous. Not knowing how to face this situation, he resolutely chose to remain silent and pretend to be deaf and dumb.
After all, looking at the problem from his perspective, it was like he was walking on the street and was blocked by gangsters who suddenly appeared on the roadside. The gangsters also interrogated him for his identity information as if they were kidnapping and extorting him. It naturally was impossible for him to answer these questions proactively.
To him, the group of people in front of him were all strangers who did not know good from bad.
Zhou Shangchao was a little angry at Su Jingyan’s attitude. He had nowhere to vent his brute force, so he raised his hand and punched the wall, then cursed and said, “What’s going on with this NPC? He doesn’t say a word. How can we get some damn clues? Damn, we wasted so much effort coming back again.”
Su Jingyan, leaning against the wall, felt the force of the hit and shrank his neck stiffly. When he heard the three words “NPC”, the tips of his ears moved slightly, and his eyes calmly moved in the direction of Zhou Shangchao.
Although his face seemed calm and didn’t react much, and he still kept his head lowered and said nothing, in fact, Su Jingyan’s heart had been trembling very hard because of these words he had just heard. Like it was some shocking secret.
Because even though Su Jingyan doesn’t play games, he still clearly knew what an “NPC” was.
The abbreviated term of NPC was Non-Player Character, which was a non-player controlled character, also known as a virtual character.
He still has this bit of common sense.
What was the meaning?
Was this NPC talking about him?
He…
How did he become an NPC?
Not only were the questions swirling in Su Jingyan’s mind not resolved, but they were becoming more and more numerous, and he was getting really confused.
But he still decided to pretend to be deaf and dumb to the end.
Perhaps because of his habitual thinking, Wang Zida didn’t think that the NPC protagonist would pose any threat to him or make dangerous moves, and he didn’t even think twice about what he said in front of him.
He said in a deep voice, “I don’t know, but as of now, we only have clues about this one NPC. No matter what, we can only get clues from his mouth for now. Since it is still in the easy mode, there is still time to upgrade the game. Let’s continue to inquire around.”
Li Mengshan thought it was reasonable and nodded.
Zhou Shangchao pointed at Su Jingyan and asked, “What should we do with him? Keep him here and ignore him?”
Wang Zida sneered and shook his head, his voice a little cold, “No! The clues we finally found can’t be let go so easily. Let’s tie him up first and bring him with us!”
Zhou Shangchao nodded immediately, agreeing, raised his eyebrows, clicked his tongue, and prepared to take action.
Su Jingyan swallowed, trying hard to calm down, and continued to play the role of an emotionless tool. He hid his hands behind his back and clenched them into fists.
Before Zhou Shangchao could actually take action, the hospital’s public address system was turned on instantly and without warning, emitting the harsh thudding of a fire alarm.
The sound was so loud that it was deafening, especially for Zhou Shangchao. He was so frightened that he trembled on the spot and staggered back, almost kneeling on the ground.
Su Jingyan was the only one present, who didn’t seem to have any emotional fluctuations.
That was because…
A pair of hands seemed to appear out of thin air. They immediately covered his ears to block out the noisy sound. They also touched the red tips of Su Jingyan’s ears intentionally or unintentionally, making Su Jingyan feel hot.
A numbing whisper appeared in his mind from the air, and only said three words.
“Don’t be afraid.”
Su Jingyan didn’t need to guess at all to know who the speaker was.
This voice was too familiar to him!
—Lu Yichen.
Su Jingyan’s scalp felt numb when he heard this voice, and he felt an indescribable sour feeling, but the man’s voice hit his ears and instantly relieved his initial confusion and that from not adapting to everything happening around him.
“Alert! Alert! There has been an illegal intrusion!”
“Alarm! Alarm! Order: Kill without mercy!”
After the piercing siren stopped, the radio paused for a moment, then sounded an even more terrifying siren, and a human voice similar to Siri on a mobile phone appeared and began to issue instructions.
This voice was accompanied by the sizzling sound of electricity and was intermittent. It was obviously a mechanical voice, but it could make people hear a bit of sinister anger directed at them, as if they had done something unforgivable.
Wang Zida reacted quickly, a rare crack appeared in his expression, and began to command, “Hurry! Let’s hide first!”
Zhou Shangchao swallowed, calmed down, hesitated on the spot, and then tried to grab Su Jingyan’s hand, preparing to take him away with him.
But just as his hand touched Su Jingyan’s sleeve, before Su Jingyan could resist, Zhou Shangchao suddenly foamed at the mouth and his eyes rolled upward, leaving only the whites of his eyes showing.
He stood there, trembling uncontrollably as if he had been electrocuted, his body shaking at a very high frequency, similar to an epileptic attack. Unconscious moaning sounds came from his mouth, “Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu”.
Mo Anke screamed in fear and covered her mouth and nose.
Even Wang Zida was completely stunned by the sudden scene in front of him. He stood there in confusion and even forgot to run away.
In addition, he was very close to Zhou Shangchao, and he could even clearly see that most of Zhou Shangchao’s pants were wet. There were some water stains along his pants reaching the floor, and there was a stinky smell.
F*ck, what the hell!?
What the hell was going on!?
“Alert! Alert! Save ‘Beloved’ mode on.”
“Alert! Alert! Save ‘Beloved’ mode on.”
Be…beloved?
Not only was Wang Zida stunned, but Su Jingyan was also stunned and stood there with a confused look on his face.
What beloved?
Wang Zida froze in place for a while, then his brain suddenly flashed with inspiration, as if he suddenly realized something, and he looked at Su Jingyan with a look of surprise on his face.
A looming skull face appeared in mid-air, placed next to the masked man’s neck, and rubbed the masked man’s hair affectionately.
The skull face seemed to have noticed his surprised gaze, and slowly turned its head stiffly, its empty eyes fell on Wang Zida.
Hehe.
Do you want to die?
hehehe this arc seems exciting, i cant wait for karma to happen to them! 😁🫶
