Kaleidoscope of Death

The time to enter the door advanced day by day, and Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu were almost done with their preparations.

This was the first time Lin Qiushi had entered the door with someone from the website. Ruan Nanzhu told him that online jobs were risky, so he had to hide his real identity after entering the door, and it would be troublesome if he was discovered.

But when Ruan Nanzhu accompanied him to change into women's clothes, the unbalanced feeling in Lin Qiushi's heart was finally much better.

Cheng Qianli seemed to know what Lin Qiushi was thinking, and asked him to keep his first thoughts and not to be corrupted by Ruan Nanzhu's terrible thoughts.

Lin Qiushi looked at him and didn't say anything.

Cheng Qianli: "Why are you ignoring me..."

Lin Qiushi typing on his phone: I'm blending into the role of the mute girl.

Cheng Qianli: "...Lin Qiushi, I'm afraid you're finished.

Sometimes being too adaptable can turn out to be a bad thing.

Finally, after a few days in the villa wearing a skirt, Lin Qiushi had the day to enter the house. That day, he was sitting at the dining table eating, when a mysterious feeling suddenly appeared, a feeling he was very familiar with. Lin Qiushi put down the chopsticks in his hand, turned around and pushed open a door in the house, and unsurprisingly saw that the scenery outside the door had turned into twelve iron doors.

Five of the iron doors had seals on them, the other six could not be pulled open, and the only one that could be opened was the one owned by the door owner.

Lin Qiushi took a deep breath, grabbed the door handle and gave it a gentle pull.

The door should open, the image before Lin Qiushi's eyes switched, and the surrounding scenery turned into a long corridor. It seemed to be a basement staircase, the air smelled of mold, the staircase was long as if there was no end to it, Lin Qiushi slowly walked up and turned several corners before he saw several people standing inside the hall waiting.

As he removed the bracelet from his wrist, he observed his surroundings and determined that the location he was in was the sanatorium in the clue. Although it was a sanitarium, it carried a disinfectant smell that was unique to hospitals. There were discarded hospital beds everywhere, and when Lin Qiushi passed by one, he even saw dried brown blood stains on it.

At this time, the crowd had already gathered eight people, including him, a total of nine, some people saw him and averted their eyes with disinterest, while others saw him and began to look at him with great interest, the depth of his eyes hinted at other meanings, Lin Qiushi's face remained unchanged, all as if he had not seen.

Someone walked up to him, smiled and extended his hand to him, "Hello, my name is Jiang Yingrui, can I meet you?"

Lin Qiushi typed on his phone: sorry, I can't talk, my name is Lin Qiushi.

Jiang Yingrui: "Oh, I'm sorry, how many times are you coming in?"

Lin Qiushi: Sixth time.

Jiang Yingrui seemed very interested in Lin Qiushi, even Lin Qiushi's cold attitude did not drive him away, and finally Lin Qiushi had to say very frankly: excuse me, I want to be alone for a while.

Jiang Yingrui saw the character and smiled: "Okay."

He didn't dwell on it, but turned around and walked away. It seemed that he wanted to find Lin Qiushi to team up with him, but Lin Qiushi very clearly rejected his invitation.

This hall they were in was on the first floor of the sanatorium, outside was the barren grass-covered courtyard, and up was the ward of the sanatorium.

There were a total of six floors in the sanatorium, and the functional divisions were very clear, but it seemed that the people here were not in a good state of mind, at least Lin Qiushi saw a lot of messy graffiti on the top of the walls.

Just as Lin Qiushi was observing his surroundings, his shoulder was lightly touched, Lin Qiushi turned his head and saw a strange face.

The face was unfamiliar, but the clothes he wore were familiar, and he spoke, "Hello, my name is Ruan Baijie."

Lin Qiushi understood: hello, my name is Lin Qiushi.

Ruan Nan Candle smiled: "Nice to meet you."

This time, Ruan Nan Candle changed his appearance still beautiful, with long black hair and a white dress, although he was much taller than an ordinary girl, his unique temperament was very eye-catching, he smiled slightly, even though Lin Qiushi knew that he was a man, his heart was still moved.

Ruan Nan Candle's hand was on his shoulder, "Let's team up, shall we?"

Lin Qiushi nodded his head.

The gazes of the others also fell on the two of them, and Lin Qiushi clearly felt that there were some unkind looks among them.

Although he hadn't encountered this kind of thing, the Gate was, in the end, a place outside the law, and there was no need to be responsible for doing anything in it. Coupled with the threat of death, there were often people who would do some rather excessive things - these were all things that Ruan Nan Candle had given Lin Qiushi's science.

After hearing this, Lin Qiushi was deeply impressed and said wouldn't it be dangerous for the two of us.

Ruan Nam Candle said, "You're thinking too much."

Lin Qiushi was still wondering what it meant to think too much, but today he finally understood the meaning of the statement.

Because some unsighted people came up to them and started harassing them with nasty words. What specific words Lin Qiushi would not repeat, after that person said those words, Ruan Nan Candle showed a somewhat angry expression.

Lin Qiushi was thinking of how to "softly" beat up the man, when he saw Ruan Nanzhu directly grabbed the man's arm - and then twisted it.

Lin Qiushi heard the cracking of bones and the howling of a pig.

The eyes of the crowd changed from ambiguous to terrified, and Ruan Nan Candle, the product, actually didn't forget to wince at Lin Qiushi, saying with a pitiful expression, "Qiuqiu, Qiuqiu, he's so scary."

Lin Qiushi: "....... "The scary one is obviously you, isn't it.

Now completely no one dared to come over and talk to them, and everyone very tacitly stayed away from the two of them, making Lin Qiushi laugh and cry.

It was at this moment that Lin Qiushi saw their target. A teenager wearing a black t-shirt, jeans, and a black cap. The teenager looked to be 17 or 18 years old, with a very handsome appearance, and had just walked in from the courtyard outside, his eyes falling on the two of them.

He hesitated for a moment and walked over towards Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nan Candle.

"Hello, my name is Feng Yongle." The young man introduced himself, the same pseudonym he told them on the website, "May I ask if I can team up with you?"

Hearing this, the others cast sympathetic glances at the teenager, as if they felt that his hand would also be directly twisted off.

Who knew that Ruan Nan Candle smiled sweetly: "You can."

Feng Yongle was relieved, but noticed that the eyes of the others weren't quite right, and he was a bit strange: "What happened?"

Ruan Nan Candle pointed at the person in the corner who was already about to pass out from the pain and said, "Just now, this person harassed us and I fought him off."

Feng Yongle looked at the man, then at Ruan Nan Candle, and was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about how Ruan Nan Candle and Lin Qiushi had fought off that man with this delicate body. Lin Qiushi actually guessed what he was thinking from the look in his eyes... But he couldn't explain it, so he could only learn from Ruan Nam Candle and act like I don't know what happened, I'm just an innocent kitten - Lin Qiushi felt that he was skilled too! .

Fortunately Feng Yongle didn't delve into it.

The people came one after another, and the sixth door that Lin Qiushi entered last time was about the same number of people, still fourteen people, but this time there was only one newcomer, who was shivering in the corner watching the scene around him.

Not long after everyone had arrived, a woman in a nurse's uniform appeared in front of everyone. Her face looked very bad, the top of her exposed neck was covered in blue blood, and her eyes were cold as she looked at the crowd, "Please follow me to the fourth floor."

The crowd followed her footsteps and reached the fourth floor.

"Your treatment will begin in seven days." The nurse's tone was cold, "Within these seven days, I hope that you will get used to the facilities in the sanatorium." Here she said, pulling a strange smile on her lips, "You'll like it here."

After that, she told everyone some rules, such as only eating inside the cafeteria, not eating food from outside, and not leaving the room after eight o'clock every night. After saying this, the nurse turned around and left, leaving them with an indifferent back.

"Fuck, that's horrible." One girl couldn't stop muttering, "Is this person a human or a ghost..."

No one answered her question.

There are a total of eight accommodations, each with two bunk beds, which means that four people can live in one, though you can use it as a double room if you don't like it.

Lin Qiushi Ruan Nanzhu and just now that Feng Yongle naturally lived together, during which a girl named Xue Zhiyun wanted to live with them, but was rejected by Ruan Nanzhu.

Of course the reason for refusal is very bitchy, Ruan Nam Candle this goods said: "Oh my, people are not used to living with too many people it~."

She said, "There are already three, can't you make me one?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "No way, sister Lin and I must live together as soon as we meet."

Xue Zhiyun said, "What about him?" She pointed at Feng Yong Le.

Ruan Nan Candle very shamelessly said: "What kind of person is the child."

Xue Zhiyun walked away with a black face, Feng Yongle's face is also not good, Lin Qiushi at this moment actually a little understanding of the mood of these two, God damned at first sight, what kind of person does the child count, really bitchy report.

But the final result was that Ruan Nan Candle successfully rejected the fourth person's intervention and kept their triple room.

The living environment here can be said to be pretty bad, the worst thing is that Feng Yongle found a few pieces of intact nails that fell off of people inside his bed.

Feng Yongle shook the blanket clean and said, "Are we staying here for seven days?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Pretty much."

Feng Yongle: "Alas, I hope I can get through it."

Ruan Nan Candle: "Survive? I don't think it's a boil." He stood by the window and looked out and said this.

"What do you mean?" Feng Yongle asked.

Nguyen Nam Candle: "You didn't read the information?"

Feng Yongle: "Read it."

Nguyen Nam Candle: "Remember how the patients in the nursing home inside left here?"

Feng Yongle said, "You mean that tunnel..."

Ruan Nan Candle said, "Let's take a look at the situation first."

While the two of them spoke, Lin Qiushi was studying his walls, which had many strange scratches on them, as if they had been gouged out with his nails, and one could imagine that the person who was sleeping in this bed of his at the time was probably not in a good state of mind either.

"It's time, let's go downstairs for lunch first." Ruan Nan Candle, "What the NPCs have stipulated, it's better to behave."

The three of them turned around and went downstairs to the restaurant on the second floor that the nurse said was open, and it was filled with patients in sickness uniforms.

To be honest, it was the first time Lin Qiushi had seen such a dense crowd of people inside the door. It was reasonable to say that a place with a lot of people would always be less scary, but in fact after seeing the mental state of these people, Lin Qiushi felt a chill running down his back.

The patients in the restaurant were clearly in an abnormal state, some of them looked numb, some lowered their heads to whisper to themselves, some stared at the floor without moving, all in all, this sanatorium didn't look like a sanatorium at all, but rather like a large mental hospital.

"Eat early and leave." Ruan Nan Candle, "After all, mental state is something that can be contagious."

Indeed, if you spent too much time with abnormal people, you would become abnormal yourself.

While they were eating, a few other teams came over, including the one that attempted to team up with Lin Qiushi, Jiang Yingrui, who seemed to be interested in Lin Qiushi and smiled at him from afar.

Lin Qiushi took it as unseen.

After the three of them finished their meal, they planned to take a stroll around the inside of the sanatorium. They first went to the treatment room on the topmost floor. This wasn't a hospital after all, the means of treatment were limited, but almost every room was filled with hospital beds, some of which were still filled with dying patients.

Feng Yong Le: "I don't know how many people have died here."

Ruan Nan Candle: "People must have died a lot."

Lin Qiushi continued to walk forward and noticed that there were many graffiti on the walls, which were indistinct, but could be identified as probably some words like save lives, death and so on.

"Hey? Someone here is eating." Feng Yongle suddenly spotted something in front of a hospital room.

Lin Qiushi leaned over to look inside the ward through the window and found a patient eating noodles with a fork, he ate very slowly and chewed each bite for a long time.

"Didn't I say you can't eat outside?" Feng Yongle muttered, but he had brought in food.

Ruan Nan Candle had a look at him: "You can try it."

Feng Yongle said, "Forget it."

The three of them looked around for a while and planned to leave when they saw nothing unusual, but after taking a few steps, Lin Qiushi heard a strange sound, a slight puffing sound, as if something had been pierced. He stopped in his tracks and looked towards the room he was just looking at, resulting in a glance that made him stop breathing for a moment.

Only the fork that was used to fork the noodles earlier was now inserted inside the eyes of the person eating the noodles. Only one handle of the fork was directly left exposed, and the man's eye was bleeding like water, but he didn't let out a single scream. It was reasonable to say that with such a deep wound, the person must have died, but he slowly pulled the fork out and began to continue eating noodles again.

Lin Qiushi: "......." he silently pulled Ruan Nam Candle's sleeve.

Ruan Nam Candle turned her head and saw this scene as well.

Feng Yongle's reaction was the most violent of them all, cursing and rubbing his arms, "Fuck, this fucking works?"

OK Lin Qiushi didn't know, but the man in the house was pretty good anyway, and ate his blood as ketchup with his noodles.

He even seemed to notice the person watching him from the doorway, facing in this direction and giving a smile.

It was a truly creepy image.

All three of them tacitly didn't speak and turned around. And after returning to his residence at the end of this day, Feng Yongle silently threw all of his snacks into the trash, never mentioning the extra meal again.

After strolling around on this floor for a while, the sky darkened.

They made it back to their residence before dark, but before entering the door, Lin Qiushi noticed something, he patted Ruan Nan Candle and took out his phone to type: aren't we living on the fourth floor?

Ruan Nam Candle: "Yeah, what's up?"

Lin Qiushi: "...But why is this person's door number 502."

Ruan Nan Candle looked up and found that the house number of a room near the stairs had actually changed to 502, while the other rooms were still 4xx, he said, "502, do you remember what it says in the information?"

Lin Qiushi certainly remembered.

The room 502 was a very special room in the nursing home.

Because there was a head nurse and a nurse who died in it, it was said that the head nurse chose to commit suicide by jumping from the 502 because she was pregnant with the doctor's child and failed to get an abortion, after which the 502 began to be haunted.

Legend has it that every night you can hear the cries of a baby and the painful wails of a woman, and then a nurse committed suicide in the 502, and the room was sealed up and never used again.

So, here, 502 was a very special number.

When the room was assigned this afternoon, Lin Qiushi was still glad that they were living on the fourth floor, but he didn't expect that when he returned from a walk around, this door number was changed.

To be honest, the general public wouldn't pay too much attention to the house number when entering or leaving the house, but Lin Qiushi remembered that this room was for a man and a woman, and he looked at Ruan Nanzhu and asked for his opinion.

"I'll talk to them." Nguyen Nam Candle.

The sudden appearance of 502 should be a very obvious condition of death, since it wouldn't hurt to warn the team as such.

So Nguyen Nam Candle knocked on the door in front of him.

"Something wrong?" The door was opened by one of the girls who lived here on the team, and she looked wary when she saw the people outside.

"There seems to be a problem with your room number." Ruan Nam Candle opened the door.

The girl spent a head and really saw the changing numbers on it, she turned pale, "When-"

"I don't know." Ruan Nam Candle, "We saw it when we came back, do you want a different room?" There's plenty of room here, though - and it's going to get more plentiful, because there will be fewer people.

"Okay." The girl accepted Ruan Nan Candle's kind offer and nodded gratefully, "Thank you for the warning."

"Hands up," Ruan Nam Candle said.

They returned to their own room after the notice.

It was almost dark now, and there was still half an hour before the nurse's prescribed eight o'clock.

Lin Qiushi washed up and sat on his bed and started playing even. Ruan Nanzhu, on the other hand, sat on his top bunk, thinking about something.

Feng Yongle, perhaps feeling the atmosphere was a bit awkward, found a topic: "I didn't expect you guys to be two girls."

Ruan Nam Candle: "What else?"

Feng Yongle: "I thought you were a boy."

Ruan Nam Candle: "Who says women are inferior to men?"

Lin Qiushi leaned against the bed and quietly thought, who would have thought that the feminist in front of him was a big hanging sprite....

Eight o'clock was about to arrive, but Lin Qiushi heard the sound of chasing and running from the corridor outside, the sound was clear with some panic, Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nan Candle looked at each other, Ruan Nan Candle said, "I'll go."

But Lin Qiushi got up before Ruan Nan Candle, he went to the door and carefully opened it, wanting to see who was running outside.

After opening the door, Lin Qiushi only saw an empty corridor, his heart tightened slightly as he was about to close the door, but he felt something stuck in the doorway.

Lin Qiushi lowered his head and saw a red high heeled shoe appear in his doorway at some point, standing prominently at the edge of the door frame.

Lin Qiushi: "........"

Ruan Nan Candle walked up to Lin Qiushi and saw the shoes as well. He looked around, didn't use his hands to take them, but turned around and went back to the house, took out a dirty toilet stopper from the toilet and knocked out those high heels with a stick.

Lin Qiushi was shocked by Ruan Nam Candle's actions.

Also shocked was Feng Yongle, who was stunned to see Ruan Nam Candle throw the toilet plug away with a calm expression and went to the toilet to wash his hands.

When he returned, he found that these two were still staring at him, but Ruan Nan Candle was a bit strange: "What are you guys looking at me for?"

Lin Qiushi pulled out his phone and typed: because you're pretty.

Ruan Nan Candle smiled and kissed Lin Qiushi: "Or is Qiuqiu cute, come, sister kiss."

Lin Qiushi was a little embarrassed: men and women can't be kissed.

Ruan Nan Candle's expression was strange after reading Lin Qiushi's typed words, he always knew that every time he wore women's clothes Lin Qiushi would be a bit confused....

Lin Qiushi regretted after typing, he suddenly remembered that the lovely Bai Jie girl in front of him wasn't a girl, but a very ferocious man.

Lin Qiushi: "......." ugh, the eyes are so good at deceiving people.

The sound of high heels sounded again outside, and this time Lin Qiushi didn't open the door, even though the sound seemed to be around their room.

The sky had completely darkened, and the entire sanatorium was shrouded in darkness.

Everything was silent, and because of this, the sound of the running became particularly piercing. Along with the sound of high heels hitting the ground, Lin Qiushi's keen hearing also caught the faint sobbing of a child, although it was so small that Ruan Nanzhu and Feng Yongle should not have heard it.

So Lin Qiushi shrank down on the bed and pretended he hadn't heard anything.

"Go to sleep." The top bunk Ruan Nan Candle said goodnight to him, "If you can't sleep, you're welcome to come find me oh."

Lin Qiushi didn't say anything, it was too troublesome to type at this moment, he didn't bother to communicate with Ruan Nam Candle.

Soon, Ruan Nan Candle's breathing became steady, and with Lin Qiushi's knowledge of him, he knew that he must have fallen asleep.

Lin Qiushi looked at Feng Yongle next to him and saw that he was still staring at the ceiling, and was somehow comforted - at least he wasn't the only one who couldn't sleep.

Feng Yongle seemed to have noticed Lin Qiushi's gaze as well, and he turned his head to smile at Lin Qiushi and whispered, "Can't sleep?"

Lin Qiushi nodded his head.

Feng Yongle looked at Lin Qiushi with an... indescribable tenderness in his eyes, frightening Lin Qiushi into closing his eyes. He always felt that if he didn't close them and pretend to sleep, Feng Yongle would say something very scary.

The author has something to say: Ruan Nan Candle: You can tell my feelings for you by looking at my eyes.

Lin Qiushi: It's not a person you meet after confirming your eyes....

Ruan Nam Candle: ???
