Kaleidoscope of Death

Chapter 67 - Jiang Yingrui's Death

"What do you mean by that? What do you mean the doctor is maybe not from the sanitarium?" When Feng Yongle heard Ruan Nanzhu's words, he didn't understand what he meant at all, he said blankly, "Does it mean that Dean Dao is a ghost?"

Nguyen Nam Candle: "You saw the posthumous photos all over the dean's room, didn't you?"

Feng Yongle nodded.

Ruan Nam Candle said, "That nurse can apparently easily take on the NPCs here, and if that dean is in the sanatorium, it would be almost impossible for him to escape." He said here, pondering for a moment, "Of course, there's another possibility, that he has a way to avoid the nurse. But we haven't seen him until here, so I'm leaning towards the second guess."

Lin Qiushi listened carefully to Ruan Nanzhu's analysis.

"Second guess." Ruan Nan Candle held up a second finger, saying softly, "He's not in the sanatorium at all."

Feng Yongle was still at a loss, but Lin Qiushi had understood what Ruan Nam Candle meant - that the dean was hiding inside the person who entered, just like Xu Jin in Ah Sister's drum.

Seeing that Feng Yongle still didn't understand, Ruan Nanzhu sighed and carefully explained once again.

After hearing it, Feng Yongle was filled with incredulity: "But how is this possible, inside the person who came in through the door, this is too foul..."

Ruan Nan Candle: "So what if it's foul, these worlds don't have fixed rules in the first place."

Feng Yongle scratched his head, somewhat not turning the corner.

"Of course, it's just speculation now, everything is yet to be proven." Ruan Nan Candle, "But now it's certain that the key and those pictures in the dean's room must have something to do with each other."

Feng Yongle nodded, "Right, aren't we going to see the room where the corpse is kept?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Let's eat breakfast first."

So the three of them began to continue eating slowly again.

After settling breakfast, they ran to the place where the corpses were stored according to yesterday's plan.

When they arrived at that room, Lin Qiushi unexpectedly found that a part of the corpse was missing from the room, and the body bags that had been piled up all over the room were only two-thirds left, and it looked like some of them had been moved to other places last night.

Ruan Nanzhu looked at these corpses in the room and contemplated.

"These corpses that are gone must have been moved inside the tunnel." Feng Yongle whispered beside him, "Are we going to sneak out at night and follow them, but if we meet that nurse halfway..." he said here, probably remembering the miserable dead Xue Zhiyun, and shivered all over.

Ruan Nanzhu: "It's better to come out and be killed by the nurse than to wait for death, besides, there are some rules that you don't have to follow."

Indeed, Lin Qiushi still remembered when they were in the world of the Lady in the Rain, Ruan Nam Candle didn't listen to the rules of the housekeeper to enter the drawing room and destroy the Mistress's painting before getting the key to leave the inside of the door. If every world obeyed the NPCs, they'd all have died many times.

There were rules that had to be followed and rules that could not be followed. Of course, the bounds of judging this standard need to be decided for themselves, and one wrong choice could mean the cost of a life.

It seemed that the more doors one experienced, the easier it was indeed to draw some more reliable lessons from them, and it wasn't unreasonable for Ruan Nan Candle to swipe a large number of doors like that, Lin Qiushi pondered so.

"Then let's sneak out tonight and take a look?" Feng Yongle was whispering advice beside him.

Ruan Nan Candle said, "We'll see then." His eyes turned, "I want to go to the dean's office again."

"Yes, together." Feng Yongle felt that he really didn't have any ideas.

So the three of them went to the dean's room again.

When they came here before, there was a big lock hanging at the entrance of the dean's room, but now this lock had been destroyed. It was thought that the other players wanted to go in but didn't have the skill to open the lock so they had to use violence.

But this was convenient, Ruan Nan Candle reached out and pulled open the door, revealing the view behind the dean's room.

The scene in the room hadn't changed much from when they had come before. It was just that the books on the table had been flipped over and not put away, and the portraits on the walls seemed to have been moved.

Lin Qiushi placed his eyes on the empty picture frame.

That picture frame looked the most special, hanging so abruptly in the middle of a piece of relics, it was like an unfinished scroll, trying to fill it up that was out of place with its surroundings.

Ruan Nan Candle looked down at the remains of the baby in the drawer, he had been thinking about something and his expression looked extraordinarily serious.

"You said." Ruan Nan Candle suddenly made a sound, "How many people have been in this room?"

Lin Qiushi shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Feng Yongle: "There must be quite a few of them..." he said, "With so many messy footprints on the floor, I do think that basically most of them have been in here." The location of this deanery wasn't hidden, and it would be easy to spot and come in to investigate.

Just as the three of them were planning to take a closer look, a miserable scream came from downstairs, a scream that sounded like the voice of one of the girls in their team.

Feng Yongle looked in awe, "Something happened?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Let's go down and see."

So the three of them ran to the location of the scream on the first floor, and soon saw what had happened.

Seeing a corner of the corridor on the first floor, there was blood everywhere, and in the midst of the blood, there was a person lying on his back - no, that could no longer be called a person, the bones all over his body seemed to be broken, and the flesh and blood had been drawn out, leaving only a skin, just lying quietly on the ground.

Lin Qiushi revealed a surprised look when he saw this person, although he couldn't see the person's face, he could recognize that the dead person was Jiang Yingrui from his clothes!

Lin Qiushi reflexively looked at Ruan Nan Candle, but he saw Ruan Nan Candle's innocent hands spread out, indicating that the situation before him had nothing to do with him.

"How did he die?" Feng Yongle was also surprised, "Wasn't it still fine this morning?"

"I don't know-" it was a girl who found the body, she said, "I was going to look around, but I saw this."

"No one saw what happened? How did he die?" Someone asked.

The question wasn't answered, and it seemed that no one knew exactly how Jiang Yingrui had died.

At this time, all the people in the team were arriving one after another. Excluding the two who died last night and the Jiang Yingrui in front of them, there were still eleven left. Everyone looked at Jiang Yingrui's corpse with serious expressions and started whispering about why exactly he had died so miserably.

Ruan Nanzhu walked over to Jiang Yingrui's side and began to briefly examine the corpse.

After examining it for a while, he got up.

When the bystanders asked him if he had found anything, Ruan Nan Candle shook his head, "No."

Jiang Yingrui's death was too strange and sudden, Lin Qiushi had thought about what he would do if he tripped them up, but he didn't expect the man to die so inexplicably.

Ruan Nanzhu finished examining the corpse and stood up and swept his sight around the crowd.

Lin Qiushi was sensitive to the fact that he was looking for something. But Ruan Nan Candle shouldn't have found what he was looking for because the next moment, he greeted Lin Qiushi and Feng Yongle and left.

After the three of them left, they arrived at a remote location.

After making sure there was no one around, Ruan Nan Candle slowly pulled out something from his pocket and said, "This is what I found in Jiang Yingrui's pocket."

"What?" Lin Qiushi was stunned to find a small wooden doll in Ruan Nam Candle's pocket, the doll was only the size of a thumb and looked like a child's toy.

"What's this? Toys?" Feng Yongle asked.

Ruan Nanzhu's fingers fondled the wooden doll, and with a sudden movement of his fingers, the doll split from the middle, revealing an even smaller doll. Only then did Lin Qiushi understand that these were actually the last two dolls of the Russian condoms.

Russian condoms were all one condom, the largest condom with the smallest, and only two condoms were left in front of him.

"It should be an important prop." Ruan Nam Candle said, "That's why Jiang Yingrui didn't die last night."

He had obtained these two condoms from some special place, and they had saved his life.

It's just that for some reason, he escaped the night, but suddenly died in the daytime.

Feng Yongle: "Then why did he die...?"

Ruan Nan Candle sighed, "I want to know too, can't you just stop asking questions all the time and give some advice?"

Faced with Ruan Nan Candle's hateful tone, Feng Yongle's expression was slightly embarrassed and he accosted me with two laughs, "Sorry, you're too good, I'm afraid that I'll interrupt your train of thought by analyzing it instead."

Ruan Nan Candle's expression was like a smile, "Qiuqiu, what do you think?"

Lin Qiushi typed: could the person who killed him have been the doctor?

Ruan Nam Candle: "How so?"

Lin Qiushi: I haven't seen that nurse during the day, what did Jiang Yingrui do to trigger the death condition, I think this condition will definitely be very special, and before according to your speculation, if the doctor is in our team... could it be that Jiang Yingrui found some key clues there in the corridor on the first floor?

Ruan Nan Candle: "Makes sense, let's go take a look again."

The corridor on the first floor was now silent again, the crowd that had just gathered around had dispersed, leaving Jiang Yingrui's corpse lying quietly on the spot.

Lin Qiushi squatted down to inspect it himself this time, and Feng Yongle muttered beside him, "Why are you two girls so bold, aren't you all afraid..."

Lin Qiushi had a look at him and didn't say anything, while Ruan Nanzhu smiled and said, "There's nothing to be afraid of, I know my Qiuqiu will protect me."

Feng Yongle gave a subtle snort with a subtle expression.

Jiang Yingrui's death was strange, his stomach had a large hole in it, and the wound presented a kind of laceration that literally looked like it had been torn open. To be honest, Lin Qiushi had always felt that it was very strange for Jiang Yingrui to die so suddenly. He slowly peeled off Jiang Yingrui's clothes and found something else, and his eyes widened at once.

"What?" Ruan Nan Candle saw Lin Qiushi's expression.

Lin Qiushi waved at Ruan Nan Candle.

Ruan Nan Candle walked in front of Lin Qiushi, lowered his head and saw Jiang Yingrui's corpse, he saw that Jiang Yingrui's back was covered with large and small knife cuts, these cuts were very deep, because Jiang Yingrui's corpse was already very torn, and the cuts were covered with blood, so it wasn't easy to find.

In the meantime, Ruan Nanzhu, whose expression looks very serious, missed these clues because he didn't care too much about the way Jiang Yingrui died.

His leg seemed to be broken as well, Lin Qiushi typed quickly, and there were still wounds on his back....

Nguyen Nan Candle was in deep thought.

Lin Qiushi: I have a suspicion.

Ruan Nan Candle looked up and saw Lin Qiushi's black eyes, and he knew that the two of them, right now, were thinking about the same thing: "Jiang Yingrui was dead last night?"

Lin Qiushi nodded heavily.

Ruan Nan Candle: "It is indeed possible."

Come to think of it, it was indeed suspicious when Jiang Yingrui appeared in the morning, and since he already suspected that it was Ruan Nan Candle who moved, then if nothing happened, then surely the first time would be to take the 502 on the door down as evidence to prove that it was Ruan Nan Candle who killed the man. But he didn't, instead disappearing for a long time, arriving belatedly only after the crowd had arrived.

At that time he came with an extremely poor complexion, Lin Qiushi didn't pay much attention to it, after all, after going through that kind of thing at night, it's a hell of a good complexion.

But on second thought, they did seem to have some very subtle details. For example, Jiang Yingrui had a different set of clothes on him, and for example, Jiang Yingrui said a few words after he arrived, and left without hesitation after finding no way to prove that it was Ruan Nanzhu who had moved.

Not long after that, he died here.

Lin Qiushi thought of the Russian condom that Ruan Nam Candle had pulled out of his pocket.

Ruan Nan Candle said, "Do you think that he is dead or not." His fingers fondled the plain-looking condor.

Lin Qiushi shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Ruan Nan Candle: "I don't think so." He laughed, his voice was a bit low, "Look at his torn wound, does it look like something has crawled out of it."

Lin Qiushi: "..." he didn't feel it if Ruan Nan Candle didn't say it, but when he said it, he got a creepy feeling.

It was as if he really saw something struggling from Jiang Yingrui's abdomen, eventually tearing through his abdomen and pushing out hard from inside.

Lin Qiushi: What was the name of the first girl who found the corpse again?

"Called Hu Die." Ruan Nan Candle said, "I don't remember much about her."

Lin Qiushi: Hmm, I see.

The two of them spoke as if they were speaking in mute, listening to Feng Yongle's confusion, and in the end he couldn't hold back and said, "What the hell do you guys mean? What do you mean Jiang Yingrui died last night, but why would he appear here if he's dead?"

Ruan Nan Candle looked at him, "How the hell did you get to the sixth door?"

Feng Yongle said, "I'm lucky."

Hearing his words, but Lin Qiushi inexplicably thought of Cheng Qianli, these two were somewhat alike in a way....

Ruan Nan Candle is the most impatient 100,000 reasons why, this if outside the door I'm afraid he would have left cold face, but at least inside the door his name is Ruan Baijie, so the attitude is a little bit better, reached out and patted Feng Yongle's shoulder and said: "Since it's by luck, do you know so much useful?"

Feng Yongle: ".......You have a point, but I still want to refute it.

Lin Qiushi wanted to laugh a little at their interaction, and to be honest, he was now a little suspicious that the reason why Ruan Nan Candle was so impressed with him in the first place was because he didn't have a strong curiosity and didn't like to ask why anymore.

Because of Jiang Yingrui's death, the three of them all started to pay attention to the girl called Hu Die.

Although Hu Die was called Hu Die, she was not very good looking and had a bad personality, and she made a partner with another boy, but they were often separated.

In fact, such a person was not special inside the door, because after all, it was in the world inside the door, and it was safer to act alone until one was sure that one's partner could indeed be trusted.

This was the case with Hu Die, even when she went to the restaurant to eat, she was always alone and left afterwards without any ambiguity.

There was nothing unusual about her behavior, and even Lin Qiushi wondered if they were overthinking it, because based on their assumptions, the truth was indeed somewhat unbelievable.

"We still have a night shift tonight, let's eat more." At dinner time, Feng Yongle ate a lot more than usual and said, "I really hope we can find the tunnel smoothly."

Lin Qiushi nodded, sort of echoing Feng Yongle's words.

A lot could be said to have happened today, three people died in one breath, and the death that finally came made everyone's nerves tense, but they were also somehow relieved - at least if they didn't find the key to get out, the chances of them surviving were a little higher again.

Once eight o'clock arrived, the sanatorium quieted down.

Lin Qiushi found a private opportunity to give room 502 number to Ruan Nam Candle to put away, and there was no telling where he had hidden it.

The three of them lay on the bed and waited for darkness, and soon the familiar sound of high heels hitting the floor came from the corridor.

"Are we really going out?" Feng Yongle looked very worried.

"Well, you can stay in the house if you're afraid." Ruan Nan Candle didn't embarrass Feng Yongle either.

"Forget it, I'd rather stay with you guys." Feng Yongle thought about it and was a bit embarrassed, "After all, you two girls... If something really happens, I'll be able to give you a hand."

Lin Qiushi looked at Ruan Nanzhu and thought to himself, "I'm afraid this girl is much more powerful than you.

Ruan Nan Candle didn't know what came to mind, but her attitude was determined to let Feng Yongle stay. Feng Yongle had wanted to continue arguing, but Ruan Nan Candle reached out and pressed on his shoulder.

"You're staying here." Ruan Nan Candle told him, "Do you hear me?"

"Hey...hey...got it, you gently gently." Feng Yongle felt like his shoulders were going to be pressed off - the first time he realized the girl in front of him was so strong!

"Well." Ruan Nam Candle, "We're off."

The two of them waited for the sound of the heels to go away, and immediately opened the door and ran to the stairs on the left, relieved to make sure the thing didn't follow them.

Now that Feng Yongle wasn't here, Lin Qiushi was finally able to speak, and he whispered, "Why don't you let Feng Yongle follow us?"

Ruan Nan Candle said very calmly, "I'm afraid he'll drag us down."

Lin Qiushi: "...just like that?" He thought it was because there was something wrong with Feng Yongle.

Ruan Nan Candle was silent for a moment: "He has too many problems."

Lin Qiushi: "... "That's the real reason, isn't it....

Ruan Nan Candle: "Let's go."

Lin Qiushi followed behind him and they headed straight to the room where the corpse was placed.

That room was located at the corner of the third floor, and they didn't rush in after arriving, but first observed for a moment beside it.

Lin Qiushi whispered: "No one has come over yet."

Ruan Nan Candle: "Let's wait."

All of the patients that had piled up on the corridor were gone, as if once it was night, this sanatorium was just dead silence. Densely packed beds were placed on the corridor, with various stains attached to the sheets and a nauseating smell.

Such a place was more like hastening the death of patients than treating them.

The two of them stood at the top of the stairs waiting for movement from outside, it was right not to bring Feng Yongle over, and judging by his personality, he didn't seem like someone who could endure it. Lin Qiushi stood on the spot playing Sudoku with his mobile phone, Ruan Nanzhu stood beside him and watched quietly, the atmosphere between them also diluted a trace of terror.

At around ten o'clock, there was a noise from the corridor.

Lin Qiushi looked astonished and immediately put away the phone.

Ruan Nan Candle walked lightly to the corner of the stairs and looked over towards the corridor.

"How is it?" Lin Qiushi asked softly, "Did the body collectors come?"

Ruan Nan Candle turned his head, his expression looking very strange.

Seeing this, Lin Qiushi also walked to the corner and took a look towards the place where the corpse was placed, then instantly understood why Ruan Nan Candle's expression was like this. It was because the corpse had indeed started to move, but no one was moving it, but it was moving itself.

The black body-wrapping bag popped out stiffly from inside the house and went towards the other end of the corridor.

Lin Qiushi: ".......You guys are really saving all the effort and worry in dying.

Ruan Nan Candle: "Let's go, follow."

Lin Qiushi nodded.

The two of them weren't sure if these corpses would find them, so they still moved extra carefully along the wall, trying not to make any noise.

The bodies in the shrouded bags were bouncing around in a very orderly manner, and Lin Qiushi held his breath as he walked next to them.

Ruan Nan Candle suddenly held his hand.

Lin Qiushi was stunned and saw that Ruan Nan Candle made a muzzle at him: don't be nervous.

Lin Qiushi's heart was slightly relieved, feeling really less nervous. To be honest, although they had usually encountered these things, it was the first time they had been this close together, and they slowly descended two flights of stairs in the direction of the corpse bouncing to the hall on the first floor.

Soon, they found what they were looking for - a tunnel hidden behind the stairs.

The tunnel looked like a small metal door that was closed during the daytime, and because it was so small and piled with all sorts of debris, it was hard for anyone to notice it.

At this time, the small iron door was opened, revealing the pitch-black tunnel behind it, and these corpses began to move slowly towards the tunnel in a very orderly manner.

Lin Qiushi saw this passageway: "Want to go in and take a look?"

Ruan Nan Candle said, "No, since we know where it is, we'll go back in the morning." Going in under such circumstances was a very risky move, after all, they didn't know what was inside.

"Then just go back?" Lin Qiushi asked in a small voice.

"Hmm." Ruan Nan Candle said, "Let's go."

Lin Qiushi agreed with Ruan Nan Candle, after all, Ruan Nan Candle was a veteran and was definitely more experienced than him in these matters.

So the two of them quietly returned to the residence again along the corridor.

Only on the way back, Lin Qiushi suddenly saw something, and he wondered, "Nan Candle, why does the roof seem to have a light on."

Ruan Nan Candle took a glance in that direction, then frowned, "It's the dean's room."

Lin Qiushi was stunned.

Ruan Nan Candle: "There's someone in there."

Lin Qiushi: "Do you want to go over and take a look?"

Ruan Nan Candle nodded his head in a moment's silence.
