After completing the bizarre game, the world experienced a global resurgence of strange occurrences.
Chapter 77 The Umbrella Girl
"Anyone who wants to go downstairs, do it now while there's no danger!"
Ruan Ning swallowed hard. Even as the one who pushed open the door, she had rarely seen such a bloody and terrifying scene.
She immediately stepped aside to let the person who wanted to leave go downstairs.
Once everyone who wanted to leave had left, Ruan Ning's gaze returned to the corridor.
The walls on both sides of the corridor were covered with countless bloody handprints, and blood flowed like a river at the foot of the stairs!
And in the corridor, bones can be seen everywhere.
They lay on the ground, seemingly crawling on and on, as if on the verge of death.
"Judging from the movements of these skeletons, they seem to be trying to leave the corridor?"
After careful observation, Ruan Ning discovered that the pile of bones was either facing the stairwell or towards the direction of the ward door.
After the Mirror Ghost told Chen Zhuo everything in the corridor in detail, he looked at the bloody handprints all over the wall and immediately expressed his guess.
"Something must have happened to make the corridor a very dangerous place, so this group of people tried to leave."
However, due to some restriction, they were ultimately unable to leave and could only helplessly pound on the walls in their final struggle.
The Mirror Ghost's words, coupled with his erratic voice, immediately sent chills down the spines of everyone present.
Chen Zhuo faced Dr. Xiao and pointed to the nearest skeleton.
"Doctor, could you please take a look and tell me how these people died?"
Knowing how they died gives us a rough idea of the guards' killing capacity.
"good!"
If it were before, he would have absolutely refused.
But now the situation is beyond my control. If I don't make some contribution, I will only be seen as a burden.
Moreover, letting Chen Zhuo know about the guards' killing ability sooner would better protect them.
With this in mind, Dr. Xiao suppressed his anxiety and walked toward the skeleton closest to him.
As he lifted his foot, the viscous blood beneath his feet, like glue, tore open with a tearing sound that sent chills down one's spine.
Dr. Xiao took a deep breath, suppressed the nausea rising in his body, and squatted down in front of the skeleton to begin his examination.
When he saw the appearance of the skeleton clearly, his face, which had still had some color in it, turned as pale as a specimen!
Dr. Xiao exclaimed in surprise and instinctively stepped back, staggering several steps backward. If Ruan Ning hadn't reacted quickly, she probably would have fallen to the ground.
He pointed to the white bones on the ground, opened his mouth but couldn't make a sound.
Chen Zhuo walked up to him, squatted down to be level with him, raised his hand and gently flicked his forehead.
The moment Chen Zhuo touched Dr. Xiao, the pain from his forehead miraculously dispelled the fear in his heart.
"What did you find?"
Chen Zhuo asked a question, and the others curiously gathered around, but Ruan Ning stood behind the group, constantly keeping an eye on her surroundings.
Dr. Xiao's voice trembled violently, and his speech was somewhat incoherent, but it was still possible to understand the general idea.
"Their time of death was approximately three hours ago, but their bones were unusually smooth!"
This speed... is impossible to achieve unless... with... a very strong... acid corrosion!
Hearing these words, everyone present felt a little flustered and couldn't help but regret why they had insisted on staying earlier.
They are all just mortals; if they are really targeted, they will probably end up like the skeletons on the ground!
"Everyone back off! Stick together as much as possible, something's coming!"
Ruan Ning suddenly spoke, startling the already uneasy crowd.
Fortunately, she spoke very quickly, and the others reacted not too slowly. They quickly gathered their thoughts and hid behind her and Chen Zhuo.
Holding the strange weapon, Ruan Ning looked at the figure that suddenly walked out of the ward at the end of the corridor.
As the figure appeared, fine water droplets began to fall from the ceiling of the corridor.
These suddenly appearing water droplets seemed to possess intelligence, closely following that figure.
The corridor was already dimly lit, and now, with the rain obscuring the view, the figure became even more indistinct.
"Mirror Ghost, tell me what that thing looks like, and hurry!"
Chen Zhuo and Ruan Ning stood side by side, listening to the sound of rain, lost in thought.
With a flash of the pocket watch at his waist, the Mirror Ghost vanished without a trace.
A moment later, the Mirror Ghost reappeared in the pocket watch and told Chen Zhuo and the other person everything it had just seen.
"Across from her was a woman in red, soaking wet, holding a black umbrella with blood dripping from it!"
This woman in red is a bit more eerie than the one we encountered when we first got to the second floor, but she shouldn't be a problem for you.
This last sentence was said to Chen Zhuo.
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhuo seemed to relax even more.
"That rain is strange! Everyone, quickly find shelter and try not to get wet!"
Ruan Ning was on high alert and even considered taking everyone back to the second floor for temporary refuge.
However, at that moment, she saw Chen Zhuo beside her suddenly lift his leg and walk towards the woman with the umbrella without any warning!
Seeing Chen Zhuo so calm, Ruan Ning felt a little relieved.
"Judging from his expression, he seems to have a solution."
However, Ruan Ning dared not be careless and followed slowly behind Chen Zhuo, so that she could take timely action if he needed support.
Just as Chen Zhuo was about to enter the rain curtain of the umbrella-wielding woman, he suddenly stopped.
Just when Ruan Ning thought he was about to make a move, she saw Chen Zhuo raise his hand and greet the woman with the umbrella!
"Sister Mengzhi, I didn't expect to run into you here?"
Not only was Ruan Ning dumbfounded, but everyone in the stairwell was equally bewildered by what they saw.
However, what happened next was even more unbelievable to them!
As soon as Chen Zhuo finished speaking, the woman with the umbrella also stopped in her tracks.
Then, he put away the black umbrella in his hand, and the rain falling from the ceiling gradually stopped.
The woman holding the umbrella raised her hand and brushed her disheveled hair to both sides, revealing her charming face below.
The moment her gaze fell on Chen Zhuo, a gentle smile appeared on her previously expressionless face.
"Chen Zhuo, it really is you! I was just wondering how someone could look so much like you! How have you been lately?"
"I'm doing...well!"
Chen Zhuo forced a smile, but it couldn't hide his bitterness.
Realizing he had lost his composure, he quickly changed the subject.
"How are you doing?"
"Just thinking about it makes me so angry I could kill someone!"
The woman with the umbrella pointed to the pile of bones on the ground and said rather impatiently.
"Thanks to you and Miss Su, my husband and I were able to see through his conspiracy to favor his parents and twin brother."
After sending them to hell, the two of us lived a peaceful life for a while.
However, this good fortune didn't last long. Shortly after you left, I was brought here through a door and forced to become the so-called guard of this floor.
Upon hearing these words, Ruan Ning's anxiety vanished instantly, leaving only a huge question mark in her mind.
If Chen Zhuo's previous actions had overturned Ruan Ning's values, then what is happening now has completely shattered them.
Humans can actually sit together with the supernatural and chat about everyday things?!
She didn't seem to be fully awake yet.
Ruan Ning pinched herself again, feeling really curious about the relationship between the two, but not daring to interrupt their conversation, so she went to the mirror ghost inside the pocket watch.
Ruan Ning bent down quietly, approached the Mirror Ghost, and asked in a low voice.
"Hey, you're called Mirror Ghost, right? Do you know the relationship between Mr. Chen and this weirdo?"
