Gentle Sleep Instructor

Chapter 522 Attraction

The front was slightly pointed; it was a woman's fingernail.

"Who is it?" Huai Yi's expression was strange. "Is it Yu Yu, or Lin..."

He stopped abruptly. He suddenly remembered the beautiful woman surnamed Lin... it seemed her relationship with the man beside him wasn't ordinary.

He shouldn't be meddling.

Rumor had it that the people in Shen Hong (Deep Red) were capricious; he didn't want to be made a scapegoat.

Jiang Cheng reached out and slowly pushed the door open.

He wasn't very nervous, because he knew what kind of person Lin Wan'er was.

If only one person could survive among Lin Wan'er, Yu Yu, and Cao Yang, it would definitely be Lin Wan'er.

The door made a scraping sound, not loud, but exceptionally clear in the silence.

Huai Yi couldn't help but look around nervously.

The ward was dark. He could vaguely see a bed, and against the wall were many deep gray shapes of varying sizes, presumably medical equipment.

The moment the door opened, a nauseating stench of blood hit him in the face.

The flickering light bulb in the corridor suddenly stabilized. As he saw the inside of the ward clearly, Huai Yi's face changed drastically.

The floor, the bed, the walls, the equipment... everywhere was covered in horrifying bloodstains.

Even the ceiling had large splatters of blood.

This was more like a Shura field (bloody battlefield) from hell.

He felt a slippery sensation under his feet. When he lifted his foot slightly, it seemed to pull up a viscous thread.

It didn't seem like only one person had died here.

A headless corpse lay on the bed. The snow-white nurse's uniform was soaked in blood, and the sleeves, hanging down limply, were still slowly dripping blood.

Without a doubt, it was Zhao Ru's corpse.

It matched Yu Yu's words perfectly.

Besides that, Jiang Cheng shifted his gaze to a corner by the wall, where a black iron cabinet was lying on its side, torn open by a huge force.

A corpse was lying on the iron cabinet in a strange posture.

The corpse was incomplete, barely retaining a human shape.

Around the corpse, the area was covered in minced meat, pale bone fragments, and traces of struggle.

It could be seen that from the moment he was dragged into the room by the ghost until his death, this person had gone through an extremely long and painful process.

"It's Yu Yu," Huai Yi said softly.

Half of a torn shoe still hung on the fragmented foot, making it easy to identify.

She must have been attacked by the ghost in the corridor and then dragged into Ward 624. This girl reacted quickly and tried to crawl into the iron cabinet after being dragged into the room, and she succeeded.

This could be seen from the torn iron cabinet.

But she was facing a ghost, so this only slightly prolonged the time, but couldn't change the inevitable death.

And her death was obviously much more painful than Zhao Ru's.

There was only one wound on Zhao Ru's body: the skin and flesh of her neck were turned outwards, torn off by brute force. It couldn't be ruled out that it was bitten off by huge and sharp teeth.

They briefly inspected the ward and found no clues about Lin Wan'er, Cao Yang, or Director Qi.

But Jiang Cheng found a rope made of shredded bedsheets under the bed.

"What is this?" Huai Yi asked curiously, looking at the rope.

"Director Qi shouldn't be dead," Jiang Cheng said, dropping the rope. "The multi-headed ghost first controlled Director Qi, then tied him up and imprisoned him under the bed in Ward 624."

"But when the multi-headed ghost was chasing us, Yu Yu and the others found Director Qi and rescued him. But while escaping, Yu Yu was accidentally caught up by the multi-headed ghost and killed."

Huai Yi touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "No wonder the multi-headed ghost was only one step away from catching us, but it left. It probably sensed that Director Qi had been rescued."

"That should be it," Jiang Cheng said.

Director Qi being rescued was a rare piece of good news.

The top priority now was to find the remaining people, and then try to stall the headless ghost and buy time.

Just as they left Ward 624 and were about to go upstairs to find the remaining people to reunite with, the door of another ward next to Ward 624 slowly opened a crack.

Huai Yi, walking at the end, was very vigilant and noticed the anomaly immediately.

"Don't... don't be nervous." Cao Yang, who showed most of his body from the door, said with a terrified expression, "It's me."

Seeing the door open, Huai Yi was so scared that his face changed. He thought the multi-headed ghost was ambushing them.

"Why are you here?" Jiang Cheng asked with a frown. "Where are the others?"

"Where are there any others?" Cao Yang seemed to have found his organization again, and tears were about to flow. "That ghost chased after and killed Miss Lin first, and then came back and killed Yu Yu."

As if recalling the terrifying scene, Cao Yang, a strong man, trembled non-stop. "I'm telling you, you didn't see that ghost. My God, it had heads all over its shoulders, 5... no no, at least a dozen heads. It scared me to death!"

"Impossible!" Jiang Cheng stepped forward, grabbed Cao Yang's collar, almost lifting him up. "Lin Wan'er can't be dead. You can survive, how could she die?"

Jiang Cheng's sudden action startled Cao Yang, and he quickly said, "Brother Jiang, I know your relationship with Miss Lin is special, but I'm really not lying to you."

"You said she's dead, where's the body?"

"Let go first, let... let go first." Huai Yi stepped forward to pull Jiang Cheng off, but neither of them dared to provoke Jiang Cheng again.

"This is what happened. Yu Yu and I were hiding well. Later, Miss Lin came and told us that you were stalling the ghost."

"She said that Director Qi shouldn't be dead, but was hidden by the ghost, so she led us to search. Finally, under the bed in Ward 624, we found Director Qi, who was knocked unconscious and tied up. He was indeed not dead!"

"But we just woke up Director Qi, and that ghost... that ghost came back!" Cao Yang said excitedly. "We couldn't run fast with Director Qi, so Miss Lin volunteered to lure the ghost away and told us to escape quickly with Director Qi..."

"Bullshit!" Jiang Cheng said, "The ghost's target is Director Qi. With Director Qi in your hands, how could she lure it away?"

Seeing that Jiang Cheng's emotions were about to get out of control, Cao Yang quickly explained, "It's true, I don't know why, but the ghost just followed her."

"That's right!" Cao Yang seemed to suddenly remember something and immediately said, "Miss Lin also cut her wrist, maybe... maybe the smell of blood attracted the ghost."

"It's right here." He pointed to the scattered bloodstains on the ground about two meters away.

The bloodstains trickled all the way to the corner at the end of the corridor.

"So... you're just speculating that Miss Lin is dead, without any direct evidence, right?" Huai Yi winked at Cao Yang.

"I didn't see it, but how could Miss Lin escape the ghost's pursuit alone? She's definitely dead," Cao Yang stammered, but said with certainty.
