Gentle Sleep Instructor
Chapter 478 Saving Lives
Jiang Cheng put down the phone and turned to look at the others.
Wang Changguo, caught by the gaze, couldn't help but shudder. "You're not really going to rescue them, are you?" Wang Changguo's tone was full of disbelief. "The other side is a ghost! A ghost!"
"This is a trap!"
"That Huai Yi is also a ghost! He's trying to trick us into going. Then he'll kill us all together!" He looked very excited. "Do you understand 'luring the enemy to relieve a besieged position'?"
Jiang Cheng naturally understood his idea, but what Jiang Cheng was thinking, he did not.
Huai Yi, who had just called, shouldn't be a ghost.
He was a person.
After all, the phone call had already been exposed, and another such scam would be meaningless. Moreover, Jiang Cheng didn't find any obvious loopholes in Huai Yi's tone and wording.
Being trapped in such a situation, asking for help was the most normal choice.
t had nothing to do with new or old players.
No one wanted to die.
But Wang Changguo was right about one thing.
Luring the enemy to relieve a besieged position...
Otherwise, Jiang Cheng couldn't understand the ghost's purpose in having Huai Yi make this call.
After thinking it over, Jiang Cheng decided to rescue them. He had no obligation to Huai Yi and Du Feng, but rescuing them was very necessary.
First.
Huai Yi was the only experienced old player known in the team besides himself.
With him around, he could help share some of the pressure.
Second.
Jiang Cheng looked around at the people around him and could clearly feel the atmosphere of fear spreading, as well as the confusion and distrust of those around them that grew in the soil of fear.
In a Nightmare Assault, the most terrifying thing was losing hope.
Especially for a group of new players.
After becoming completely desperate, they would not only lose their lives due to emotional loss of control, but would also implicate others.
That was the most terrifying thing.
After coming here, Jiang Cheng discovered that it wasn't just the Nightmare Assault that could spread, but also fear.
t, and he didn't want everyone to lose hope.
If he abandoned Huai Yi and Du Feng, then everyone would inevitably think, if they encountered danger again, would they... be the ones abandoned.
Once such a situation occurred, the people's hearts would be scattered.
"I'm going to rescue them." Jiang Cheng looked at everyone. "Who's coming with me?"
The atmosphere instantly became anxious. Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke. The strange emotions flashing in their eyes made the atmosphere even more bizarre.
"Clap."
"Clap clap."
Lin Wan'er clapped her hands, smiling as she looked at the silent people, her gaze sweeping across their faces one by one. "No one wants to go rescue them?"
"Then you can just wait to die." The next second, Lin Wan'er's tone suddenly changed, and everyone even felt that the surrounding temperature had dropped.
"As long as we are still here, the corridor, the stairwell, such locations are absolutely unavoidable."
"Even if you hide in your room and don't come out, the ghost will come looking for you." Lin Wan'er's beautiful eyes indicated the location of the closet.
Not long ago, the dead Li Kaifeng's body was carried into there.
And she was killed after being found!
Everyone was clear about this.
"If you don't go now, then you'll never find any clues," Lin Wan'er stood up and walked towards Jiang Cheng, the rouge scent of the pleasure house being drowned out by a fierce and stern aura.
"By the way." After Lin Wan'er stopped, she tilted her head and said, "When we come back, don't even think about getting any clues from us. I..." Lin Wan'er's lips curled up slightly, and she said with a smile, "I'm the best at lying."
"I'll watch you die one by one." Lin Wan'er took Jiang Cheng's hand and walked outside.
Strangely, even Wang Changguo, who was the most resistant in his heart, didn't doubt the truth of what this beautiful woman was saying.
It seemed... that if he didn't go, the result would be as this woman said.
What made him even more puzzled was that he felt a strange sense of danger from this woman.
The woman was clearly shorter than the young man next to her, but the feeling she gave was that the woman's aura was stronger, holding his hand as if she was leading a child.
Just as Lin Wan'er was about to step over the threshold...
"I'll go!"
"I'll go!"
"I'll go!"
"I'll go!"
The remaining four people spoke almost in unison. At the same time, after looking at each other, they all felt a lingering fear.
They had a premonition that if they just let these two people leave, they would be in big trouble.
Lin Wan'er ignored them and walked straight out, the others immediately following.
Jiang Cheng smiled wryly and patted Lin Wan'er's hand. She glanced at him, then raised her beautiful eyebrows, a trace of playfulness flashing in her eyes.
The others followed behind them, and dense and chaotic footsteps echoed in the corridor.
Not far after walking out, Jiang Cheng noticed something was wrong.
The corridor... was too quiet.
This was the 2nd floor of the hospital.
It wasn't their Ward 604.
There were still many other patients nearby, but now... all the ward doors were closed, and there wasn't a single person in the corridor.
Quiet.
"Get behind me." Jiang Cheng said quickly, "You and them stand together. No matter what happens, don't scatter."
Looking at Jiang Cheng's profile, Lin Wan'er nodded. "Okay."
Soon after, the others also noticed the abnormality, but they were already out here. Going back now... Wang Changguo looked back at the empty corridor they had just walked through and swallowed.
He definitely didn't dare.
Soon, everyone arrived at the stairwell.
The sky outside was already completely dark, but what surprised them was that the lights in the stairwell were actually still on.
Although the light bulbs were old and the light wasn't strong, it was still no problem to see the road.
Looking at the steps under his feet, Jiang Cheng paused for a moment, then took the first step.
He kept his attention focused.
Above, on the walls, under his feet, and even behind him...
But until he reached the first floor, he didn't encounter any problems.
Except... there was no one.
The people in this hospital seemed to have disappeared in the previous second.
"Go up."
The group walked up again, but there was nothing unusual until they reached the 6th floor where the wards were located.
Jiang Cheng stopped.
Now the situation was a little troublesome.
They and Huai Yi and Du Feng seemed to exist in two different time periods.
On the stairs, the two groups perfectly missed each other, but neither could see the other.
"Could it be that we've also been tricked?" Wang Changguo hunched over, wishing he could shrink into the very center of the crowd. "What's going on here..."
"Shut up." Jiang Cheng said suddenly.
The surroundings instantly quieted down. Everyone stopped moving, staring at Jiang Cheng in horror. Jiang Cheng frowned, as if he had discovered something.
After a while, everyone's expressions also became wonderful.
They vaguely heard something.
It sounded like... footsteps!
The footsteps were mixed, definitely not just one or two people. Everyone's gaze immediately turned to their feet.
The footsteps were coming from the stairs they had just walked up.
They were currently approaching them.
