Lin Sanjiu began to understand how criminals worked.
Especially when she single-handedly dragged the dead body of a guard into the laboratory. Her entire body was covered in a layer of fine sweat. Due to the high tension and overexertion, her right arm muscles were trembling in pain.
The old man's body was so fat that the horizontal bar could barely penetrate his skin. Lin Sanjiu could only remember that she kept stabbing the bar with all her might. Every time she stabbed the bar, she used more force than the last, even though she felt that she had given it her all. One of the stabs actually accurately pierced the throat of a guard. Accompanied by a flute-like whine, the corridor fell silent.
Blood slowly spread out from the old God's body, like a small lake. Lin Sanjiu kept the old man's cards and finally saw the two corpses. The black holes on their faces had disappeared, but their bodies were still skinny. Their bones were crushed, and there were a few bloody holes on their bodies. Overall, the corpses were slowly returning to the appearance of a normal human.
Yes, they were indeed human. After examining them for a few minutes, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help feeling a little nauseous. No wonder Hei Zeji said that the two guards were at the level of a mid-level posthuman. They were posthumans themselves.
Since she couldn't convert any more cards, she had no choice but to drag one of the corpses with one hand. Panting, her muscles trembled with every step she took. Like many criminals who started out as petty thieves, Lin Sanjiu originally wanted to take advantage of the situation to steal something. However, she couldn't imagine that crime was a straight downhill road. She couldn't help but roll down the slope. Her "crime" snowballed until it reached this point.
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help sighing. She almost lost her life trying to steal something.
When she pushed the door of the laboratory open, it was pitch black inside. Lin Sanjiu didn't dare to turn on the light. She groped around and pushed the corpse under the wall. There seemed to be a long metal table nearby. She quickly stuffed the corpse under the table and went back to drag the second corpse.
However, the corridor was empty except for a pool of blood.
"F * ck," Mrs. Manas couldn't help cursing, "Where are they?"
Lin Sanjiu's body froze. She quickly looked around and saw a few bloody footprints leading to the other end of the corridor. Following the footprints, she found a small pile of clothes. It was the uniform of the guards. Two bloodstained shoes were thrown to the side. From here on, the footprints completely disappeared.
"After suffering such a fatal injury, he has returned to his human form, and he's still alive?" Lin Sanjiu had the same doubts as Mrs. Manas, but now was not the time to solve the mystery. She gathered the clothes on the ground and hurried back to the hospital. She replied in a low voice, "Since he has turned back into a human, he probably won't report me to the hospital …"
"It's also possible that he bears a grudge against you and is preparing to take revenge."
Lin Sanjiu was speechless. That person had already escaped, so there was no point in panicking. She could only continue to cover her tracks. She used her shoulder to push the X-ray machine back onto the cart. She realized that no matter how strong you were, if you only had one hand, this task was almost unreasonably difficult. Panting heavily, she pushed the machine into the laboratory with great difficulty. Then, she abruptly stopped all her movements.
The sound of footsteps was as soft as ants crawling on a waterproof sheet. If she hadn't stopped to rest, the sound would have completely disappeared from her perception.
After holding her breath for a few seconds, the sound of footsteps became a little clearer. Perhaps the person was getting closer, or perhaps she was imagining it. Lin Sanjiu wasn't sure, but she didn't dare to take the risk.
Lin Sanjiu tried her best not to make any noise as she returned to the corridor. She took out a few towels and pressed them against the bloodstains. The towels were soaked in blood very quickly. When she was done wiping the blood off the floor, she could hear the footsteps approaching her.
"The footsteps are too soft," Mrs. Manas suddenly said, "Isn't it a little strange?"
Lin Sanjiu didn't have the time to think about why it was strange. She quickly went into the laboratory and found a metal table. Then, she squatted down in the gap between the table and the wall. Almost as soon as she hid, the door was pushed open. A hand fumbled on the wall, and the light was switched on. The endless darkness suddenly lightened and turned into a thick fog, but at least she could see the general situation.
Lin Sanjiu didn't expect that she would meet the red-faced man here.
There were too many posthumans in the hospital who hunted other players. Before this, the red-faced man was just one of them. However, what kind of patient would sneak into the basement of the hospital like she did? Not to mention the fact that the hospital was under lockdown.
It was also at this moment that she understood why the red-faced man's footsteps sounded strange. It was too soft, too subtle … If he was a member of the hospital, he wouldn't have to be so cautious.
'Why is he in the hospital? '
Lin Sanjiu watched as the red-faced man walked into the room and closed the door behind him. A few X-ray machines blocked his way. He cursed in a low voice and pushed them to the side. He was also a player, which meant that, like Lin Sanjiu, he could only see a few meters ahead in the foggy darkness. The laboratory was much smaller than she had imagined. A few long metal tables were arranged in the middle of the room, and a few cabinets occupied the other side of the wall.
The red-faced man didn't even look at the metal tables. He walked straight to the cabinets and pulled the cabinet door. The cabinet door was locked, but he didn't give up. He inserted a long and thin object into the keyhole and pulled it a few times. With a click, the cabinet door opened.
There were rows of items in the cabinet, but Lin Sanjiu couldn't tell if they were medical items or not. The red-faced man seemed to be short-sighted. He had to bring the items closer to his eyes to see the words. Judging from the way he tossed the items back into the cabinet, they were probably useless to players.
Lin Sanjiu held her breath and thought about what she should do next. At that moment, the red-faced man suddenly turned toward her. Just when her heart skipped a beat and she thought that the red-faced man had noticed her gaze, he strode toward the wall where she was hiding. He stopped at a spot two long metal tables away from her.
Then, Lin Sanjiu understood.
The red-faced man stretched out his hand and pulled open a door from her blind spot. The corner where she was hiding was in a straight line with the door, so she wouldn't be able to see it unless she walked out of it. The red-faced man didn't rush in. He waved his hand outside the door, and a long rod appeared in his hand. He stood at the door and looked around for a few moments before he walked in slowly.
The next second, a gasp came from behind the door. Then, as if something had choked the gasp, it stopped abruptly.
