Poverty makes me capable of anything.

"Hmm—" Zhou Jieyu dragged out her nasal tone to express her dissatisfaction, her personality as awful as ever.

"Do you think that walking slowly like you is more likely to encounter an enemy who suddenly appears, or is it easier to walk quickly?" An Ran slapped a pillar with her right hand, easily jumped over a fence, and asked Zhou Jieyu.

Zhou Jieyu took a few more steps, went around the railing, and jogged to catch up with An Ran: "Well, it's probably safer to walk faster."

"That settles it then." An Ran took out a head-mounted light from her backpack and put it on.

As they spoke, they had already reached the vicinity of the inpatient building of Jardine Matheson Hospital.

The outpatient building is just down the next slope.

The pharmacy Anran is looking for is located here.

"Wait."

As Zhou Jieyu was about to walk towards the outpatient building, she noticed that An Ran suddenly squatted down.

"What's wrong now?"

Anran stroked a mottled tree with her hand: "There are bullet holes. Anyway, be careful."

Bullet hole?

Zhou Jieyu immediately tensed up again, looking around suspiciously.

An Ran's vigilance also rose. Zhou Jieyu could return to the respawn point after being killed, but she was most likely directly eliminated.

The front of the outpatient building is very spacious, and the registration hall is on the left as soon as you enter.

An Ran turned her head, and the light from the overhead lamp allowed her to easily see the indoor environment.

When the light shone on the window for picking up medicine on the right, An Ran's pupils suddenly contracted.

Zhou Jieyu almost shouted it out, but luckily she reacted quickly and covered her mouth with both hands.

“Corpse, corpse, corpse, corpse?” Zhou Jieyu said tremblingly.

"Stop fooling around, let's go take a look first."

An Ran went over first.

"Hey." Zhou Jieyu panicked. Seeing An Ran leave with the lights, she quickly followed.

"One, two." An Ran's gaze pierced through the broken glass window, and she saw two nurses lying on the ground in the small pharmacy behind it.

The pharmacy shelves were pushed aside and scattered haphazardly on the ground, with countless medicines strewn about.

Could it be that the other person is also here to pick up medicine?

Anran couldn't figure it out, nor did she know if the other person had left.

She quickly pressed the switch to turn on the light.

The outpatient hall was plunged into darkness for a moment.

"Hey, why are you turning off the lights?" Zhou Jieyu's impatient voice came through.

Just as An Ran was about to speak, she noticed a soft body leaning against her, rubbing against her inadvertently.

An Ran's face immediately darkened: "Am I the guard, or are you the guard?"

"Uh?"

Zhou Jieyu quickly moved to the side and stammered, "I'm just not used to the dark. Oh, and I have night blindness."

You're just talking nonsense. Anyway, talking nonsense isn't illegal these days.

An Ran walked towards the stairs; her destination was the fourth floor of the outpatient building.

There is a large pharmacy there, which stores many useful medicines.

In the somewhat cramped corridor, An Ran slowly pushed the shivering Zhou Jieyu forward.

“I can walk by myself,” Zhou Jieyu said softly.

"If you're hiding behind me, do you even know how to walk?" An Ran remained unmoved.

Just as Zhou Jieyu was about to retort, An Ran suddenly reached out and covered her mouth.

"Well--"

Then An Ran pulled her into a room next door.

“Someone’s here!” An Ran gestured for silence and then released Zhou Jieyu.

Zhou Jieyu didn't say anything more, because without An Ran saying anything, she could hear footsteps and voices coming from outside.

"Since we couldn't find him, we'll have to check the surveillance room first."

"The monitoring room is just ahead."

Monitoring room?

An Ran suddenly turned around.

Display screen, image.

Holy crap, the place they just hid in was actually the surveillance room.

One of the monitors showed that there were seven people on the other side.

Those were seven fully armed soldiers.

An Ran assessed the strength of both sides. She estimated that she was stronger than the others in a 1v1 situation, but she only had one cowardly tank as a helper. It would be much more difficult for her to achieve a tank + 1 vs 7.

What should I do?

An Ran's gaze suddenly fell on something in the corner of the monitoring room.

Then the focus shifted to Zhou Jieyu.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Jieyu looked at An Ran with a puzzled expression, feeling that An Ran's gaze was strange.

An Ran said quietly, "I have a good idea."

"What method?" Zhou Jieyu asked.

"How about," An Ran pointed to something in the corner, "you wear these things and pretend to be a ghost?"

Chapter 36 The Master of Playing the Ghost

Here, put this on and go save the world!

An Ran pointed to the corner of the wall and conveyed this meaning to Zhou Jieyu.

"Playing the ghost?"

What the hell?

Zhou Jieyu looked at the corner of the wall with a blank expression.

There was a set of clothes piled up there, a pure white overcoat. Wearing such a thing in the dark and suddenly darting out with a whoosh would indeed be quite frightening.

But the problem is that the men who came over were all carrying guns.

"What if those people get so excited that they just start shooting?" Zhou Jieyu asked.

"Don't be afraid!"

Zhou Jieyu was frightened when An Ran said that.

Every time this NPC speaks like this, something bad is about to happen.

“If you can just make them pause for a second, I can kill them,” Anran said.

Emmm...

In this critical moment, Zhou Jieyu's mind suddenly sharpened, and she realized that An Ran's words had planted quite a few traps.

Even though you can kill them, what should I do?

We haven't reached the end yet. If we die halfway through, will the mission be considered a failure?

Zhou Jieyu was caught in a dilemma.

"Time is running out. If we delay any longer, they'll be here soon." An Ran glanced at the monitor.

The seven people who turned from the other side were almost at the door of the monitoring room.

"But……"

If the task cannot be completed, wouldn't all this effort be wasted?

Zhou Jieyu was extremely conflicted.

"If this continues, it won't just be a matter of danger, it will be a matter of both of us dying," An Ran urged.

Suddenly your mind works perfectly, and you just blindly follow the instructions.

An Ran was getting a little anxious.

Although she was selling Zhou Jieyu, as a new player, she wouldn't lose anything even if she lost Zhou Jieyu here.

As for the mission, even if Zhou Jieyu dies, as long as everyone successfully reaches their destination, the mission is considered complete.

The task requirements set by Anran were not too demanding.

She used Zhou Jieyu as a shield, but she didn't really intend to "get something for nothing".

Although she didn't think the rewards were anything special, they were still quite generous for players at this stage.

While An Ran was framing Zhou Jieyu, she also hoped that Zhou Jieyu could bring her more "clients".

"If you give it your all, there's still hope; if you don't, you'll have nothing."

An Ran stood in front of Zhou Jieyu, placing her hands on her shoulders.

The look in her large eyes suddenly turned serious and sharp, which startled Zhou Jieyu.

"Now you only have two choices: wait to die, or struggle a little longer!"

"..."

A multiple-choice question with two options.

Just ten seconds ago, Zhou Jieyu was completely unable to make up her mind, but now she knows what she should choose.
