As her words fell, the old beggar finally felt his tongue return.

He looked terrified and was about to shout out.

However, no sound came out of his open mouth, and he was completely frozen at that moment.

The woman straightened her clothes gracefully and walked slowly.

No one noticed that the old beggar behind her fell down silently.

His brain had turned into a mess and he was deader than dead.

Chapter 25 Hospital Gate

Dusk.

Jiangcheng County is not a very large county. It is located in the inland area. There are steep mountains a little further out.

Only the center of the county town is somewhat prosperous, so it cannot be considered a poor place, but that is all.

The remote suburbs are even similar to the rural areas.

The Jiangcheng County branch of Qingshan Psychiatric Hospital is located in such a place, far away from the hustle and bustle of the urban area, and there are not even scattered farmers' homes around it.

After all...the patients living in mental hospitals are not ordinary people. Some of the seriously ill ones may go crazy and hack people everywhere, and it may not even be against the law.

If such a dangerous patient were allowed to rush into the crowd... the consequences would be disastrous, which is why Qingshan Hospital is located in such a remote location.

Working in this hospital that is well-known yet avoided by everyone in Jiangcheng County, especially as a front desk clerk... is actually very boring.

The only time we could have some fun was when a special patient was sent here.

Shen Miaoyun was cracking melon seeds and watching the family soap opera on her phone intently, immersed in the love, hate and vengeance in it.

Anyway, it was Saturday and not far from the end of get off work. She thought that no more patients would come to her door today, so she hardly looked up and just kept slacking off.

At this moment, a weak and tender voice sounded.

"Excuse me..."

"The restroom is on the third aisle on the left, and the restaurant is on the basement level on the right, so who's kid is this?"

After Shen Miaoyun finished reciting the series of words skillfully, she saw that the person standing in front of the front desk was actually a delicate little girl.

The black soft hat on the little head was bulging, as if it was filled with something. The wide mask covered most of the face, leaving only a pair of beautiful big eyes looking at him puzzledly.

"I'm not here to find the toilet..." Luo Ling said helplessly.

"Ahem, there are always some patients who get lost." Seeing the cute little sister, Shen Miaoyun felt much better and asked gently, "Little sister, where is your parents? Do you want me to take you to look for them?"

"I..." Luo Ling looked around for a while, then lowered his voice and said, "I'm here to look for someone."

"Looking for someone? Is your family in the mental hospital?" Shen Miaoyun was stunned. "Is it... medical staff or..."

Could this be the child of some mentally ill person?

How can we let such a young child go to such a place...

Luo Ling hesitated for a while, but still took out the nameplate.

"Look for her."

The name on the plaque is Wu Qin, the deceased skeleton doctor.

Ji Ying gave her the nameplate so that she could use it when she went to Qingshan Hospital, so she should take it out at this time.

"He is really the child of a mentally ill person..."

As soon as Shen Miaoyun saw the nameplate, she knew it belonged to a mentally ill patient.

After sighing, she glanced at the name above and her face changed slightly.

"...Wu Qin?"

Sister Wu Qin...isn’t she dead?

Even the remains are missing...

How did her nameplate end up in this little girl's hand?

Shen Miaoyun looked at Luo Ling in shock. Could it be that this lovely girl in front of her was... that woman's child? Or her subordinate?

A year and a half ago, Wu Qin, the "skeleton doctor" who managed the Qingshan patient communication group, died mysteriously on an ordinary afternoon.

The group leader spent a lot of energy and cost, using the ability of the "other shore" path, before he caught a glimpse of the murderer's trace.

She is a thin and cold woman.

For more than a year, members of the communication group have been looking for this woman, but to no avail.

The nameplate that was supposed to be lost appeared in the hands of a little girl today.

...What is going on?

"Nurse, what's wrong?"

Luo Ling raised her head slightly and looked at Shen Miaoyun, blinking her beautiful big eyes.

Although her voice was tender and cute, to Shen Miaoyun's ears, it sounded like an evil ghost demanding her death.

"How...did you get this nameplate?"

Shen Miaoyun stretched out her hand and wanted to pick up the nameplate, but pulled it back when she was about to touch it. What if the nameplate was set with some kind of ability?

"Does the nurse know this person?"

Luo Ling did not directly answer Shen Miaoyun's question, but asked another question.

Anyone could see that Shen Miaoyun's reaction was not normal after seeing the nameplate. She might be the mysterious awakener in Qingshan Hospital, but Luo Ling was still not sure, so he asked again tentatively.

"Do you know...?"

Shen Miaoyun was sweating profusely, praying that Brother Liu or Sister Yang would pass by. How could she, a receptionist, encounter such a thing?

We are being threatened right at our doorstep!

"I think the nurse knows him." Although Luo Ling didn't know what Shen Miaoyun was panicking about, she tore off the last layer of disguise when it came to this point. "Nurse, are you an "Awakener"? "

You...are...the Awakened...

She actually said it directly...

This seems like they are planning to take direct action!

"I'm sorry, I'm not, don't kill me, go to the club room, turn right and go up to the seventh floor in the elevator, they are all over there!"

Shen Miaoyun just squatted down with her hands on her head. Why should she, an auxiliary of the "Wanling" path, risk her life? Wouldn't it be better to leave the fight to the older brothers and sisters above?

"..."

Luo Ling fell silent. This was her first time meeting an awakener other than Ji Ying. Why did it feel a little different from what she had imagined?

The mysterious high-end filter is completely broken at this moment...

"Okay, I'm just here to look for the Awakener," Luo Ling put away the nameplate, "I know the Skeleton Doctor is dead, and this was taken from her body."

"Did you kill Sister Wu Qin?"

Shen Miaoyun raised her head and looked at Luo Ling in disbelief.

"Um..."

Luo Ling nodded slightly. Although it was unbelievable, she did kill the skeleton doctor who was controlled by Puppet Rumor with her own hands.

Shen Miaoyun felt cold all over, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

According to the group leader's estimation, the woman who killed Sister Wu Qin must be at least a mid-level awakener, and may be on the "dream wandering" path.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to break through the defense of "bone steel" in an instant, making it impossible for Sister Wu Qin to even send out a signal for help.

Even if such an enemy is found, the communication group must formulate a strict plan to fight against it, not to mention that the enemy has come directly to the door...

When was the patient communication group exposed?

Could there be a traitor?

Luo Ling didn't know how many thoughts flashed through Shen Miaoyun's mind at that moment, and her gaze gradually became firm.

No, if it is really a mid-level awakener coming, the group leader must be notified and they must be prepared...

Otherwise, everyone...will die.

Shen Miaoyun was determined to spread the news even if she would be killed by this little girl.

She opened her mouth and was about to scream.

Then, the phone at the front desk rang and was automatically answered. An old and calm voice came out.

"Let her come up, Daffodil."

Chapter 26 Group Leader

"cough cough..."

Shen Miaoyun was choked by her own saliva and coughed for a long time, while Luo Ling turned his gaze to the landline at the front desk.

Only one sentence came from the phone, and then there was silence.

"Master Ji...why would you let the enemy go up there?"

Shen Miaoyun wiped the corner of her mouth and looked at Luo Ling in doubt, with a look of great fear in her eyes.

"I am also an awakener."

Luo Ling blinked her beautiful big eyes again, but because of the mask, Shen Miaoyun couldn't see her expression clearly.

"I know..."

Shen Miaoyun curled the corner of her mouth. Isn't this pure nonsense? How could someone who is not an awakened one kill Sister Wu Qin?

With her ability, she wouldn't be killed even if ten machine guns fired at her at the same time.

If not, how could the communication group be so shocked.

Anyone in the group could die quietly, except for the most unlikely sister Wu Qin who died inexplicably...For this reason, the communication group has kept a low profile for more than a year.

"I'm sorry about what happened to her." Luo Ling hesitated for a moment, but still apologized, "I didn't mean to do that. I just had no choice at the time."

From the nurse's expression, it can be seen that the Skeleton Doctor must be one of these people and a very important one.

But this apology sounded more like a provocation to Shen Miaoyun... Just like playing cards, when the other party keeps saying sorry when they have a big advantage, you definitely won’t feel that the other party is really apologizing.

"They are all on the seventh floor, you can go up."

Shen Miaoyun turned her face away and no longer looked at Luo Ling.

Humph, I didn’t expect that this little sister looks cute, but is so cruel and ruthless. It really is true...you can’t judge a person by his appearance!

Luo Ling had no idea what Shen Miaoyun was thinking, but she didn't really care. After nodding to Shen Miaoyun, she turned and walked towards the elevator.

She didn't have much time, and she had to make some time out of her busy studies in her senior year of high school to come to this mental hospital and get everything arranged as soon as possible.

After finishing all these, Luo Ling had to go back and make good use of the time to continue reviewing his lessons.

Qingshan Mental Hospital is not as scary and eerie as the rumors say. At least, as far as Luo Ling has been there, it seems to be no different from an ordinary hospital, except that it is a little deserted.

Of course, she hadn't been to a place where actual mental patients were detained.

The elevator quickly reached the seventh floor. When the green light above the elevator door came on, Luo Ling keenly noticed some unusual movements.

Someone is waiting for me outside the elevator!

Luo Ling's eyes were slightly stern, and spores were released instantly, allowing him to glimpse the scene outside the elevator.

"One, two, three, four... four people."

A burly man, a tall and thin man like a monkey, a woman with heavy makeup, and a girl sitting in a wheelchair.

They all stood guard at the elevator entrance, seemingly wanting to give Luo Ling a warning.

"Ah..."

Luo Ling's lips curled slightly, she would not let them intimidate her obediently.
