Chapter 86: Dangerous woman, longing day and night?
As he stepped out and went downstairs, Qin Nuo heard the game broadcast in his mind: two players were eliminated today.
The number of eliminations was steadily decreasing, which was expected. With only 20 people in total, and this being the fourth day, half were already gone. The remaining players were all smart, having figured out the game\'s tricks, and likely had ways to ensure their survival.
Holding the sign-in sheet, Qin Nuo went to the third floor and, as usual, first visited Room 303.
This time, when he opened the door, Xiao Yue, unusually, didn\'t rush over but crouched in the corner of the bed, cautiously watching Qin Nuo.
Apparently, because of yesterday\'s incident, she must have been scolded by Mute Sister.
The twins and Bai Qu immediately stood up upon seeing Qin Nuo, pretending to be obedient as they said, "We went to bed on time yesterday, very well-behaved!"
Qin Nuo smiled, took out some candy, and distributed it to them, then placed some on the notebook beside Xiao Yue.
Although Xiao Yue was sulking, her body was honest, quickly grabbing the Rainbow Candy and stuffing it into her mouth.Mute Sister gestured, and Bai Qu eagerly acted as a translator: "Mute Sister asks if anything happened last night."
"Everything was fine. It was stuffy at night, so I went out for some fresh air," Qin Nuo replied with a smile.
Mute Sister\'s expression changed slightly, and she gestured again.
Bai Qu said, "Mute Sister asks if those things in the night didn\'t harm you?"
Qin Nuo replied, "They\'re afraid of firelight."
With this simple and clear sentence, Mute Sister understood, but she continued to gesture.
Bai Qu: "Mute Sister says that the things in the night are not just one kind, and firelight doesn\'t necessarily mean safety. It\'s best not to go out at night."
"Not just one kind?" Qin Nuo was slightly taken aback.
What did that mean?
Mute Sister clearly couldn\'t reveal too much, only advising Qin Nuo to be careful.
Qin Nuo didn\'t ask further, completed the sign-in sheet, and left Room 303 to go to Room 302.
As soon as he entered Room 302, Qin Nuo saw a pool of fresh blood on the floor, feeling a bad premonition.
Sure enough, Yue Qin\'s addiction had flared up, her body itching terribly, and she was using a knife to torment herself. Seeing Qin Nuo, there was no escape.
There was no choice; Yue Qin had helped with Zhang Ya\'s matter, and besides, this was part of the caregiver\'s duties.
So, Qin Nuo reluctantly took out a thorny whip and gave this perverse woman a good thrashing.
Amidst her excited cries, Qin Nuo felt sore all over, supporting his waist as he emerged from the blood-soaked bathroom, looking thoroughly exhausted.
"Why does it feel like this woman\'s demands are getting bigger?"
Qin Nuo muttered, putting away the bright red whip, took out the attendance sheet, checked it off, and then left Room 302.
Finally, he went to Room 301.
This room still put a lot of pressure on Qin Nuo.
The three people inside continued doing their own things—reading newspapers, playing games, putting on makeup—as if that\'s all they did every day.
The boy and the old man weren\'t particularly hostile towards Qin Nuo, or rather, they just treated him as if he were invisible.
But Zhang Ya, while applying her stunning makeup, let her beautiful eyes occasionally fall on Qin Nuo.
Qin Nuo was all too familiar with this kind of look.
"Danger!"
This woman clearly didn\'t plan to let him off.
Qin Nuo cursed inwardly, what grudge, what enmity?
If you have a grudge with Yue Qin, can\'t you two women just schedule a time to fight it out?
Being watched by Zhang Ya, this unpredictable woman, was like having a time bomb strapped to him.
"I need to find a way to deal with this."
Qin Nuo pondered, apart from the Nun, the only ones who could handle this woman were the child and the old man in the room.
Gaining the favor of these two as backing would likely make Zhang Ya restrain herself a lot.
But the other two weren\'t easy to deal with either.
Perhaps if he displeased them, the outcome could be even worse than with Zhang Ya!
Looking at the child on the bed and the old man on the balcony, Qin Nuo, drawing on his experience from the Bloodstained Apartment, suddenly had a few strategies.
But he wasn\'t in a hurry. After checking off the attendance sheet, Qin Nuo left the room.
There were two hours left until the patients\' lunch time.
For these two hours, Qin Nuo was free and intended to go to the cafeteria to settle some scores with a certain someone.
In the cafeteria, the Multi-Faced Ghost\'s massive, tumor-like body writhed, swallowing a body whole.
Then, it leaned against the corner, seemingly digesting.
Before long, a new human face appeared on its surface.
A face filled with agony.
"The fifth face is finally restored..."
The Multi-Faced Ghost, thinking of the faces destroyed by Qin Nuo, was filled with overwhelming resentment.
"I really want to tear that kid apart with my own hands, but unfortunately, I don\'t have the chance."
"Those things in the night must have devoured him completely, right?"
The Multi-Faced Ghost muttered to itself, looking up to see it was almost noon, and started walking towards the window.
Reaching the window, it saw someone sitting there, waiting for a long time.
The Multi-Faced Ghost was puzzled, and that person slowly turned around, revealing a stiff and eerie smile.
The moment it saw Qin Nuo\'s face, the Multi-Faced Ghost was scared out of its wits, the five human faces on its body twisting madly, and its massive, tumor-like body shaking violently.
"You... how are you still alive?"
Qin Nuo grinned, awkwardly, his mouth almost splitting to his ears: "Dead, but I\'m here for revenge, aren\'t I?"
As he spoke, Qin Nuo\'s face began to melt, small holes appearing on his face like a piece of melting cheese, extremely terrifying.
But the Multi-Faced Ghost instead calmed down.
Then, the five human faces turned fierce, speaking angrily: "Wax Ghost! Are you looking for death?"
Just as it finished speaking, the Qin Nuo before it completely melted into a pool of white viscous liquid, which bubbled up, revealing a pair of eyes, chuckling eerily: "A little rat scared you like this?"
The Multi-Faced Ghost\'s face twitched, not arguing, because it was indeed afraid, and said in a deep voice: "If there\'s another prank like this, I\'ll definitely kill you!"
The Wax Ghost said nothing, just opened a wide mouth, smiling eerily.
"Are you sure he didn\'t have a white candle last night?" the Multi-Faced Ghost asked again, uneasily.
"Those white candles were made by me, what do you think? Last night I saw with my own eyes, that unlucky kid only pulled out a piece of Ghost Currency."
"Last time, the white candle had a trick, letting him escape by luck. This time, without the white candle, how do you think he survived?" the Wax Ghost said.
"It\'s unlikely for a caregiver to survive the night until dawn," the Multi-Faced Ghost said.
"You\'re too paranoid."
"It\'s almost your work time, I won\'t argue with you." The Wax Ghost\'s viscous body moved, preparing to leave.
But just then, the Multi-Faced Ghost saw something, its face turning cold and angry: "Again, do you really think I have no limits?"
The Wax Ghost stared at him, eyes puzzled: "I don\'t understand what you mean."
"Really, why don\'t you turn around and see?" the Multi-Faced Ghost said with a calm face.
The Wax Ghost\'s eyes rotated on its body, and it saw someone standing behind it, without knowing when.
Qin Nuo, with his hands behind his back, bent slightly, showing a friendly smile, and greeted warmly: "You two, I heard you\'ve been eagerly waiting to see me?"
