Chapter 26 Basement
Are you sick?
Two caregivers in white coats rushed over upon hearing the commotion.
Do you have any medicine?
Chen Feng surrendered without resistance.
Escorted by caregivers in white coats, he walked across the neatly manicured lawn, through the dark and gloomy corridors, changed into a gray-and-white striped hospital gown, and successfully infiltrated the sanatorium.
The lobby of the sanatorium was filled with the smell of disinfectant and cleaning agents.
Chen Feng scanned the area and quickly found the first checkpoint – the nurses' station.
Located in the very center of the hall, it looks like a command center surrounded by glass from the outside. The sanatorium's Boss Rabbit Nurse sits in it, watching over all the patients through the glass, like a king looking down on his subjects.
Noticing that Nurse Rabbit's gaze was on him, Chen Feng quickly responded with a silly grin.
The acting wasn't particularly skillful, but it was more than enough to fool the monster.
Soon, Nurse Rabbit stopped doubting and looked away.
They managed to fool everyone.
Chen Feng was sweating bullets. Being stared at by those eerie red eyes, it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.
However, he also confirmed an important piece of information: as long as you follow the rules, you will not be attacked.
Sure enough, the monsters in this hospital all follow certain rules.
"Just wait, once I successfully check in and get the points, I'll slaughter you and make you into spicy rabbit heads."
three days later.
Having become completely familiar with life in the sanatorium, Chen Feng discovered that it was simply the most boring place in the world.
First of all, the sanatorium has a fixed bedtime. You must get up at 6:30 in the morning and go to bed at 10:00 at night. Otherwise, it is considered a violation of the rules.
Secondly, the activity area of the sanatorium is fixed. During the morning rest period, everyone can only sit quietly on the chairs in the lobby and cannot make a sound. In the afternoon, outdoor activities can only be carried out like caged birds, walking on the lawn surrounded by wire mesh.
As for the nurses' station that Chen Feng wanted to visit, it was naturally not within the area where patients were active.
Finally, the treatment at the sanatorium was fixed: one or two sleeping pills or an injection of a sedative every day. Not taking the medication or injection was considered a violation of the rules.
It can be said that from being woken up by the shrill alarm in the morning to taking medication and turning off the lights to go to sleep, everything that happens during this period must be arranged and controlled by the nurse.
If anyone resists, Nurse Rabbit will take out her diary with her hands painted with orange-red nail polish.
According to Chen Feng's observation, that diary was a weakened version of Death Note.
This thing requires two steps to kill:
The first step involves holding a notebook and observing others to learn their names; this process takes about a minute or more.
The second step is to draw five circles after the other person's name, which will strip that person of their thoughts and consciousness, turning them into a fake person.
As a patient at the sanatorium, Chen Feng's case has already been recorded in the diary.
"If she wants to kill me, she only needs to draw five circles, which means that if I can't deal with the nurse within three seconds, I'll be instantly killed."
"Conversely, if it's a stranger, a nurse would need to stare at him for more than a minute before she could kill him."
"Therefore, when dealing with nurses, skirmishes are more advantageous."
Inside the lounge.
The patients wandered aimlessly in the lobby.
Chen Feng sneaked to the edge of the nurses' station and silently counted to clock in.
But it failed.
"Grass!"
"Is it absolutely necessary to go in?"
Chen Feng silently watched the rabbit-headed monster in the nurses' station from behind, plotting to break the glass from behind and take it down.
"This is a problem. If this is her only skill, a nurse can't possibly be more capable than a professor. She must have some hidden trump card that I don't know about."
"If I act now, I have at most a 20% chance of winning, which means I'm 80% doomed."
Chen Feng was weighing the pros and cons in his mind, but before he could take any action, someone started talking first.
One of the patients suddenly attacked and bit Chen Feng's thigh.
"what!"
In pain, Chen Feng kicked the man away.
Strangely, despite being hit by Chen Feng's brick-like kick, the man only rolled a few times, drooling and barking as if nothing had happened.
Damn it, why are there so many lunatics here?
Chen Feng cursed inwardly.
The patients in the sanatorium are divided into three types.
One type is genuine mental illness, like the person in front of us, who fantasizes about being a dog, bites anyone he sees, and marks his territory by urinating anywhere.
There was also a serial killer who saw everyone as monsters. It is said that he brutally murdered his entire family, presumably because he viewed his family members as monsters.
The second type is people who have encountered abnormalities.
There are guys who claim to have seen an invisible monster under the Cihang Bridge.
Some people claim they have been harassed by an invisible rabbit.
There are also people who claim that their family members were eaten by cats while they went to an amusement park.
These kinds of people were sent to mental hospitals by their relatives and the police because what they said was too outrageous, but Chen Feng knew in his heart that what they said was true.
After hearing their stories, a mechanical voice kept echoing in Chen Feng's mind.
[Discovered a five-star photo spot: Horror Park]

Finally, there is the third type of patient, or rather, the pseudo-person.
Like the internet cafe managers at Happiness Internet Cafe and the model students at the Internet Addiction Academy, the pseudo-people here also have their own unique name: "the cured people".
Just as staying in an internet addiction academy for a long time can turn someone into a pseudo-human, the first and second types of patients will also become pseudo-human after a long period of injections and medication. At this point, the sanatorium will advertise that these people have been treated and then let their families take them away.
The sanatorium receives five to ten patients every day and then sends away five to ten fake people.
The thought sent chills down Chen Feng's spine.
How many imposters are actually hiding in Cihang City?
Perhaps, for Cihang City, humans are the invasive species.
night.
Chen Feng took the sleeping pills from the window of the nurses' station and swallowed them in front of the nurses.
Back in the ward, Chen Feng secretly spat out the sleeping pills he had hidden under his tongue.
Spending too much time in sanatoriums and internet addiction schools risks turning you into a hypocrite, so it's not advisable to stay here for long.
It's time to take action.
However, we should definitely be wary of the nurses' abilities.
Thinking to himself, Chen Feng tore off the white cloth from the bed sheet and wrapped it around the lower half of his face. After confirming that no one could recognize him, Chen Feng broke the lock on the ward door and went to the corridor of the sanatorium.
It was already lights out, and the entire corridor was pitch black, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
"I never imagined that I, who would never dare to eat poop since I was a child, would actually be exploring a hospital full of monsters. It's really scary."
Chen Feng tiptoed and carefully walked towards the end.
At this moment, at the end of the corridor, in the basement of the sanatorium.
A half-human, half-snake female demon huddled in a corner, weak and helpless.
