Chapter 3 Qingshan Mental Hospital
Chapter 3 Qingshan Mental Hospital
I don't know why.
This teleportation was noticeably more brutal than before.
Shen Ye's consciousness was as if it had been stuffed into a black bag and then thrown into a sewer.
He didn't know how much time had passed before he regained consciousness.
And immediately.
He smelled a fishy, foul odor.
Like the bottom sock in a laundry basket that hasn't been washed for a week.
Open your eyes.
Shen Ye was lying on a bed, and the moonlight on the balcony was just enough for him to see the outlines of his surroundings.
"Is this a hospital ward?"
It hadn't been cleaned in a long time; you could see dust in the air under the moonlight, and there was a very unpleasant smell. The sunflowers on the balcony looked wilted and lifeless.
There are three beds next to it.
And... a few faded large characters printed on the wall.
Aoyama Mental Hospital
At this moment.
A white text box also appeared in front of Shen Ye's eyes.
[Please remember the following information to understand your current situation and improve your chances of survival – The God Cube Survival Handbook]
soon.
He heard a faint, eerie voice in his ear, a voice that sounded like it had been poked in the throat with hot tongs, hoarse and chilling!
This is a long-abandoned mental hospital, neglected and deserted for years. The access road is overgrown with weeds. Rumors say there have been several disappearances in the vicinity, but no one knows where the missing people went.
And tonight, three outsiders arrived here...
It turned out to be the case.
Following this inertia.
"I'm one of the three outsiders, right?"
On a dark and stormy night, three outsiders disappeared half an hour ago.
"???"
You fucking bastard.
So who am I? What am I doing here?
This isn't a place for you, but since you've unexpectedly ended up here, be careful...
The voice let out an eerie laugh; it was just a narration playing, yet it sent chills down one's spine.
Someone is watching you in the darkness.
The ethereal voice gradually faded from Shen Ye's ears.
And then the emotionless voice of the Divine Cube rang out again.
[Main quest has been released]
Main Mission 1: Survive for two hours
Main Mission Two: Escape from the Mental Hospital
[Complete any task to receive a reward and be teleported out of the instance]
Please note that your personal panel has been updated and can be viewed at any time.
Shen Ye did not check the panel immediately.
because.
I had been awake for several minutes, and my consciousness was still a little hazy when it first returned.
But now the unpleasant smell is quite noticeable.
Something's not right.
Shen Ye stood up.
Logically speaking, this mental hospital has been abandoned for a long time.
There shouldn't be such a strange smell entering my nasal cavity.
...This is not the musty smell from being sealed up for years, nor the earthy smell of dust.
Instead, it smelled of blood.
Shen Ye's gaze instantly locked onto the bathroom in the ward.
He walked very quietly, his fingertips resting on the cold doorknob.
With a little effort, I pushed the door open.
"Click."
The bathroom floor tiles were soaked with dark red blood, and the sticky liquid seeped into the grout lines. Shen Ye's gaze fell on the bathtub.
He said calmly, "The first outsider has been found."
A young man was lying in the bathtub.
His limbs were twisted off at angles that defied human anatomy, his chest cavity was ripped open with a sharp instrument, and his internal organs were mangled beyond recognition. His death was extremely cruel.
"The time of death was exactly half an hour ago."
Shen Ye did not back down because of this situation.
For some reason... he felt no discomfort at all towards this scene of death; in fact, he felt a sense of acceptance.
"However, the identity of the deceased seems to be more than just ordinary..."
Even in this state.
The young man's black uniform, embroidered with dark gold patterns, was still crisp and straight, and the insignia, though stained with blood, still gleamed coldly.
The clothing and workmanship were very formal, not like those of a newcomer.
This is also normal.
Judging from the man in the "Safe Waiting Space," the Divine Cube has probably existed for a long time and must have various veterans and even a huge force.
Shen Ye began to examine it carefully.
The most important thing now is to find something that is valuable to our current situation.
Shen Ye quickly found the flashlight he was clutching tightly from his severed wrist in the corner.
【Name: Flashlight】
[Type: Item]
[Can it be taken out of the instance: No]
[PS: It's just an ordinary flashlight]
"Judging from the cut, the flashlight was at least a threat to whatever was attacking him."
Shen Ye put it away carefully.
Then he found a fruit knife in the other person's inner pocket.
I touched a notebook soaked in blood, with a name on it.
Chen Qingshan.
It seems he is the director of this Qingshan Mental Hospital.
[Dean's Notebook]
[Type: Item]
Can it be taken out of the instance: No
[P.S.: A notebook stained with blood]
Shen Ye opened it and saw that most of it was soaked in blood, but it was still visible.
The preceding sections consisted of daily records. The hospital director seemed to be a very nice person; he kept records for each patient, understood their conditions, knew their hobbies, and even seemed to enjoy gardening.
And then turn to the last few pages.
But the atmosphere changed.
[On July 18th, the new patient in room 306 was in a very isolated situation.]
[July 22nd, the situation was more serious than expected. The old caregiver actually came to resign in a hurry today, as if he hadn't slept for days and was eager to escape this place.]
[On July 25th, I strictly forbade this patient from contacting anyone else. She had only written a sentence on a piece of paper, yet it almost caused a patient to cut off their own hand.]
[July 28th. I don't know if it's just my imagination, but lately patients have been looking at me strangely, and there are more and more dead rats and sparrows in the trash can.]
On August 1st, I had another nightmare. I woke up soaking wet. Things are getting worse and worse. This can't go on. I have to deal with it as soon as possible.
[August 3rd, no! No! Those resigning employees never left this place. I found them in the backyard... all dismembered pieces!!]
The last few pages had no dates; instead, they were filled with crooked, intermittently written words of panic and fear, spread across multiple pages.
They've all gone mad! They've all gone mad!
There's absolutely no way they can escape.
[If someone finds this diary, those lunatics aren't the target at all!]
Only by finding her and killing her can we leave this place... She'll only hide in the darkness.
Below, however, there were traces of blood, with several bright red words written on them.
I found you...
next moment.
Before Shen Ye could react, heavy, dragging footsteps could be heard outside the ward.
The death line also connected to the outside of the door, emitting a translucent red light.
The frosted window on the door cast a long, thin shadow in the moonlight.
The other person had already gripped the doorknob.
"Click!"
