Kaleidoscope of Death

Going to the dean's office at a time like this is a very risky business. But sometimes, it was hard to get key clues without taking some risks.

Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu meandered up the stairs and soon arrived at the floor where the director's office was.

It was almost midnight, the sanatorium was in darkness, only the only room on the roof was emitting a little light, attracting people's attention.

The sound of the nurses jumping from the building still continues, and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground from time to time makes people's heart a little panicky.

Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu didn't go directly to the dean's room, but found a hidden place to observe the situation first.

The lock at the entrance of the dean's room had been broken, so everyone was able to enter whenever they wanted. Looking from the window, Lin Qiushi vaguely saw a figure shifting inside the dean's room.

"It's a person, right?" Lin Qiushi whispered and communicated with Ruan Nan Candle.

"It should be." Ruan Nam Candle replied.

If it wasn't a person, then there shouldn't be a shadow.

If it was a person, then what was this person doing in the dean's office so late at night? As Lin Qiushi was thinking this, he saw the door to the dean's office being pushed open.

A person he hadn't expected walked out from inside. This person was actually Hu Die, whom they had met once during the day, her appearance was cold and her skin looked even more pale under the white light. She was holding a bag in her arms, which seemed to have something in it....

Lin Qiushi hadn't yet reacted, but Ruan Nanzhu, who was standing behind him, suddenly took a step forward and actually directly called Hu Die's name: "Hu Die."

Hu Die's footsteps trailed off, and Lin Qiushi clearly saw the fear on her face after she heard someone call her name.

"What did you bring out?" Ruan Nan Candle asked softly.

Hu Die looked at them, turned around and ran, good thing Ruan Nan Candle was ready, a few steps forward stopped Hu Die who tried to run away, grabbing her arm in her hand.

Lin Qiushi quickly followed, and heard Ruan Nan Candle sneer at Hu Die, "What are you running for?"

Hu Die didn't say anything, the look in her eyes towards Ruan Nan Candle was a resentment that was darkened with fear, she said, "What do you care what I do, what I do has nothing to do with you-"

Ruan Nan Candle simply ignored her and reached out to snatch her bag.

In the end, Hu Die is a girl and her strength is no match for a man, so the bag in her arms went to Ruan Nancang's hand.

In the meantime, Ruan Nanzhu opened the backpack and saw what was inside, his brows were raised and his expression was quite unsightly.

Lin Qiushi also leaned over - he saw that there was a baby's skeleton wrapped in cloth in the backpack, obviously just taken out from the dean's room. He looked at Hu Die, but found that she was shaking all over her body.

"Let me go back-" said Houdini, "Let me go, she's coming back, and we'll all die if we see the baby missing!!!"

Ruan Nan Candle looked towards Hu Die at the news, his tone cold: "Her? You mean the nurse? So why did you steal her baby?"

Hu Die said, "I'm not trying to steal it, I just think it's important! Maybe the key is in there...so just wanted to take it back with me." She gave this explanation.

It was obvious that Hu Die wanted to gain their trust very badly, but this excuse was so full of holes that even Lin Qiushi found it hard to believe.

"This thing can only be brought out at night..." the Hu Die was getting anxious, like it was afraid of something, "If you move it during the day, it will cry!"

Ruan Nan Candle raised his eyebrows: "Alright, let's go back first."

Hu Die was like an amnesty.

But Ruan Nan Candle wasn't going to let her go, but still held Hu Die in his hand while Lin Qiushi was holding the backpack beside him.

The three of them began to slowly walk towards the stairs.

However, when they were about to reach the staircase, Lin Qiushi heard a sound that made the hairs on his back stand up - it was the sound of high heels tapping on the ground, and that nurse who jumped off the floor had actually returned at this moment!

Because the situation was too urgent, Lin Qiushi couldn't care less about revealing his identity and whispered to Ruan Nan Candle, "She's back!"

Hearing the voice that belonged solely to a man, Hu Die revealed a startled look, she was obviously so surprised that she couldn't help but open her mouth wide, "You, you're a man?"

Ruan Nan Candle ignored her and said to Lin Qiushi, "Where is it coming from?"

Lin Qiushi carefully distinguished the voice, "From the fourth floor." He raised his eyes and reached out to point to another staircase that also led to the roof, "It seems to be that way!"

"Come on, let's go back this way." Ruan Nan Candle.

Hu Die's expression was somewhat distraught, as if the fact that Lin Qiushi was a man had hit her deeply. Lin Qiushi was baffled, after all, he didn't know Hu Die well, even if he knew he was a man, why did Hu Die have to look lost, whether he was a man or a woman, this matter didn't have much effect, right?

As soon as they ran down to the sixth floor, they heard a woman's miserable howl coming from the location of the dean's room, the cry was sharp and piercing, sending chills down one's body.

Lin Qiushi inexplicably felt that the infant corpse on his hands was tricky.

But at that moment, Hu Die cast her gaze on Lin Qiushi as she whispered, "Let me hold the skeleton, that thing is very dangerous."

Ruan Nan Candle narrowed his eyes at her words, but it was himself who took the bag from Lin Qiushi's hand: "No, I'll take it."

Hu Die's face was pale and she wanted to say something, but Ruan Nan Candle ignored her and her footsteps were a little faster.

Coming down from the sixth floor, they didn't dare to stop on the way and ran to the fourth floor in one breath, yet when they came down from the stairway and saw the sight at the end of the corridor, they held their breath.

The nurse was standing at the end of the corridor, with most of her bones broken, her body standing in an extremely twisted posture at the other end of the corridor, a knife still stained with blood in her hand, her horrible face smiling a strange smile at them.

The three of them intended to turn and run towards the stairs.

However, the nurse was extremely fast, but moved in front of them in a split second.

Before Lin Qiushi could react, he saw the nurse raise a long, sharp knife at them. His nostrils were filled with fishy breath, yet at this moment, it was more like the smell of death.

The blade fell and the nurse actually attacked Hu Die first.

Ruan Nan Candle's expression was strange however, he seemed to be waiting for something, Lin Qiushi grabbed his sleeve and motioned for him to leave, but he held his wrist with his back hand.

Ruan Nan Candle held up his finger and made a gesture of silence.

Lin Qiushi was slightly stunned and looked at the butterfly that was being attacked.

The butterfly had been stabbed in the abdomen, but her expression was subtle, and it was as if she wasn't that afraid of the impending death, but instead cast her eyes on Lin Qiushi and the others.

It was a look with malice, like an audience under the stage, waiting for a good show.

Slash after slash, the nurse hacked Hu Die to pieces.

Hu Die's body fell stiffly to the ground, closed her eyes, and actually died just like that.

And the nurse raised her head to look at Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nam Candle standing in the corner, the blade in her hand was still dripping blood.

Ruan Nam Candle took the only two remaining Russian condoms out of his pocket, took the innermost condom out and threw it in front of the nurse, "We found him."

The nurse's footsteps stopped.

Ruanan Candle said, "He's right behind you."

The nurse didn't move, she seemed to be thinking about what Nguyen Nam Candle said.

Nguyen Nam Candle said, "We can help you with the last one, he should have died." He handed the bag with the baby's skeleton in his hand to the nurse.

After he said this, the nurse actually took what was in Ruan Nam Candle's hand and slowly turned around, really planning to leave.

Lin Qiushi looked at this scene, surprised and unable to speak, but he saw Ruan Nan Candle let out a long sigh of relief and smiled bitterly, "Good thing it's useful."

Lin Qiushi: "You were actually able to communicate with her?" It was the thing that surprised him the most.

Ruan Nan Candle shook his head and didn't say anything more, he didn't seem to want to talk much about this matter and just skipped the topic.

Hu Die's corpse was right in front of them, hacked into a mess by the nurse, almost on the verge of not being able to distinguish the human form.

Lin Qiushi said, "Shall we go back?"

Ruan Nan Candle said, "No, just keep watch here."

"What's the point of guarding here?" Lin Qiushi was a bit confused.

Ruan Nan Candle pointed at Hu Die's body, "Of course, waiting for him to come out." He laughed, "Didn't I promise the nurse."

Lin Qiushi was stunned.

The two of them just stood there and waited, time passed by little by little, just around three in the morning, the corpse in front of them started to show strange changes. Lin Qiushi heard a kind of writhing sound, and when he looked at Hu Die's corpse, he found that her body was actually writhing, and her eyes that were closed were once again open.

Lin Qiushi wanted to take two steps back, but Ruan Nanzhu directly hugged his waist and he said, "Don't be afraid."

Lin Qiushi then really didn't seem to be afraid anymore. In fact, as long as Ruan Nan Candle was around, Lin Qiushi felt a sense of stability and security, as if he was in control of whatever he was doing and no accidents would occur.

Of course, Lin Qiushi also knew that this feeling was wrong, he couldn't rely too much on Ruan Nan Candle, the two of them would be separated one day in the end.

For some reason, thinking of this, Lin Qiushi was inexplicably a little lost.

But this small emotion was quickly smoothed out as the images in front of him became more and more horrifying. Hu Die had actually crawled up from the ground, and those wounds that should have been fatal had actually done nothing to her, she had come back to life, but her body had become shattered, as if she was about to collapse after taking two steps. And those reopened eyes, now filled with greed, were staring at the Ruan Nan Candle in front of them.

"Help..." spoke Hu Die, her speech was slow at first, but she soon returned to her normal human level, she faced Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nan Candle, "Help... you guys come quickly, save me, I'm not dead yet..."

Both Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu stood still, Lin Qiushi's face was scrutinizing, while Ruan Nanzhu's face was expressionless.

Hu Die's mind was becoming clear, she remembered something, her expression twisted and she muttered in a vicious tone, "Why, why didn't you guys die!"

Ruan Nan Candle said, "Do you think we'll die like Xue Zhiyun and the others."

Hu Die didn't say anything.

"What a pity." Ruan Nan Candle said, "She spared us because we could have helped her finish you off." He laughed, "As long as we don't let you find a new body, don't you agree, Jiang Yingrui."

Hu Die's breath quickened and she said, "I don't know what you're talking about-"

"It's okay." Ruan Nan Candle looked at the person in front of her with some compassion in her tone, "Guess why she attacked you first?"

Hu Die was stunned.

"How stupid." Ruan Nan Candle laughed, "Of course it's because, I slipped the 502 house number into your pocket ah."

Hu Die was shaking with anger, she stretched out her hand and indeed pulled out a 502 house number from her own pocket. It should have been thrown into her pocket when Ruan Nan Candle pulled her down just now, Hu Die had expected that she would wake up this morning and see two mangled and disheveled corpses, but she never expected that Ruan Nan Candle and Lin Qiushi would both appear properly - that bitch had actually spared them!

Hu Die's eyes were resentful, and she heavily threw the door number on the ground, her entire body trembling with rage. Lin Qiushi, who saw the whole thing from the side, didn't doubt for a second that if Hu Die had any weapon in her hand at this point, she would have no qualms about greeting them.

Hu Die held onto the wall and turned around intending to leave.

Ruan Nan Candle said, "Where are you going?"

"It's none of your business where I'm going-" Hu Die coldly said.

"Naturally, it's none of my business." Ruan Nan Candle walked up behind Hu Die and kicked Hu Die to the ground again, he didn't spare any energy and stomped on her back after she fell to the ground, "Did you think I would let you go and go in search of a new body?"

Hu Die's expression appeared panicked for a moment, she: "What are you talking about..."

Ruan Nan Candle, however, didn't say anything and waved at Lin Qiushi, "What time is it?"

Lin Qiushi looked at his phone: "Three forty."

It would soon be dawn, and before dawn was the darkest time.

There were no lights where they were, so they could only continue with the dull moonlight and could barely see the images in front of them.

Hu Die, who had been stepped on by Ruan Nan Candle, suddenly began to struggle hard, she screamed and tried to get up from the ground.

Ruan Nan Candle wasn't polite at all and kicked Hu Die again, directly kicking her and almost passing out.

Lin Qiushi had heard his meaning from Ruan Nanzhu's words, Hu Die was not Hu Die, or she had been Hu Die and now she wasn't.

The three of them continued to freeze

Six o'clock came, and the day dawned.

Some people were coming out of their residences one after another to eat breakfast in the canteen, but the butterfly that fell to the ground seemed to have given up struggling.

Ruan Nan Candle kept an eye on her, his gaze not slackening for a moment.

His nervousness was obviously useful, because just as the sun was rising, the butterfly, which looked like it was already dying, suddenly stormed up and pounced towards Lin Qiushi who was standing in the corner.

Lin Qiushi was caught unawares by the pounce, but it was a good thing that Ruan Nan Candle had been prepared and grabbed Hu Die's hand, then threw her body towards the wall behind her with great force-.

Hu Die's body smashed heavily against the wall with a loud thud. Hu Die seemed to understand that she had no chance and wailed like a child.

If this were normal, Lin Qiushi might have felt some pity for the girl in front of him, but after knowing Hu Die's identity, his heart was calm.

If it wasn't for Ruan Nan Candle's cleverness, they might have been pitted cool by Hu Die, and being soft on the enemy wasn't a wise move. Lin Qiushi didn't speak, just watched in silence, his appearance at first glance looked somewhat similar to Ruan Nan Candle.

"Let me go, I don't want to die-" Hu Die cried, "I obviously didn't do anything, I don't want to die-"

Ruan Nan Candle's expression was strange, as if she couldn't understand Hu Die's words, "You didn't do anything? Are you sure?"

Hu Die rests his voice.

Ruan Nan Candle: "Don't you know what you've done?"

Hu Die slowly turned her head and looked at Ruan Nan Candle, she said, "I don't know anything."

After saying this, Hu Die's body began to undergo a strange change, her belly slowly bulging, like a pregnant woman who had been carrying a baby for months. Hu Die moaned and struggled, looking somewhat like a giant cocoon.

Then, there was the sound of flesh tearing, and Lin Qiushi clearly saw that something had torn open Hu Die's abdomen and crawled out from inside. At first, Lin Qiushi thought it would be a child or something, but he didn't expect to see a strange, yet not unfamiliar face when the thing crawled out completely.

It was a face he had seen in the dean's room before, with beautiful blonde hair and a handsome face - it was the same dean he had seen in the dean's room.

Ruan Nan Candle's suspicions were confirmed at this moment.

The dean was indeed not in the sanatorium; he existed in someone else's body, using someone else's skin as a medium to escape the nurses who tried to kill him every night.

But what made Lin Qiushi more confused was whether the people who were entered into his body by him, the people inside the door or outside the door, Jiang Yingrui and Hu Die, did they really exist?

Because of the destruction of Ruan Nam Candle, the dean lost the opportunity to find a new body. He seemed to be very weak and lay on the ground for a long time without standing up.

Ruan Nan Candle didn't go over and just watched this absurd and odd scene from a distance.

Lin Qiushi said, "What else do we need to do?"

Nguyen Nan Candle: "It shouldn't be necessary." He said, "Just wait until night." Without another skin to protect him, it would be easy for the nurse to kill him.

According to what we learned in the background before, I'm afraid that the bones of the baby that this man wanted to steal is the child that the nurse aborted. And the blond man in front of him should be the father of the child.

The blond man cursed at them, a curse with a taste of self-loathing, Lin Qiushi only thought he didn't hear it.

Ruan Nan Candle said, "Let's go, Feng Yongle has been waiting for us all night."

Lin Qiushi nodded.

They then ignored the blond man behind them and turned around to leave.

Lin Qiushi followed behind Ruan Nan Candle and walked until he was a bit slow, he said, "Hu Die and Jiang Yingrui, are they from inside the door or outside the door?"

Ruan Nan Candle said, "It should be outside the door."

Lin Qiushi: "......." actually it's outside the door.

Ruan Nam Candle said, "There are only two Russian condoms left he should only be able to change his body once more, but he was unlucky enough to meet us." He said indifferently, "Then don't change even once."

This thing existed in Jiang Yingrui's body at first and then changed Hu Die's body later, Lin Qiushi was a bit confused, "But why would Jiang Yingrui help him hide it?"

"So what if we don't hide it." Ruan Nanzhu said, "If you tell it, whether other people believe it or not is another story, besides, even if they do, it won't do Jiang Yingrui any good, instead they'll defend him."

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

"And that dean," Nguyen Nam Candle, "He's hiding in the body of someone outside the door, and the nurse has to follow the law if she kills him, so she can't just do it." And that dean obviously wanted the others to die as soon as possible, because the sooner the others died, the more likely it was that the last person to be left behind would be Jiang Yingrui.

But man's plan was not as good as God's plan, Jiang Yingrui ended up failing to play Ruan Nan Candle, but of course, this might not have been the case if it had been another person.

The two of them reached the door of the room and pushed the door to see Feng Yongle anxiously circling the room, he was greatly relieved to see them return and said, "You're finally back! I was scared to death, I thought something happened to you two."

Ruan Nan Candle nodded, "Nothing."

"How about it, did you find the tunnel?" Feng Yongle asked.

"It's found, and the key should be there tonight," Ruan Nam Candle said.

"Wow, and you found the key?" Feng Yongle was very excited, which turned into happy circles around the house, "Great, are we going to get out of here soon?"

Nguyen Nan Candle: "No surprises there."

The dean without the skin as protection is the nurse's bag of tricks, and if you want to do something, just wait until it's dark.

The blank picture frame in the dean's room could finally be filled.

But Lin Qiushi remembered something, he Dao typed: right, I suddenly remembered, what did that Hu Die go to steal the baby's corpse at night for? What's the use of the body?

Ruan Nan Candle thought for a moment and shook his head without speaking.

But there was also this possibility that they couldn't verify only guess.

Feng Yongle didn't know what was going on and listened in the clouds: "What Hu Die stealing a baby's body? What the hell happened to you guys last night?"

Starting to ask questions again, after Feng Yongle said these words, Ruan Nan Candle had a look at him, but didn't answer a word.

Feng Yongle was a bit aggrieved by Ruan Nan Candle's stare: "I'm just a normal person..."

Ruan Nam Candle: "I'm not normal?"

Feng Yongle: "Of course you're not normal, you all talk like you're in riddles, can't you speak plainly and understandably?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "I can't."

Feng Yong Le: ".......Why are you refusing so frankly ah.

Lin Qiushi Le's playing dumb beside him.

In the end, Feng Yong Le still didn't know what was going on yesterday and could only give up on finding the truth.

The three of them went to check the tunnel they saw last night while it was still daylight and made sure that the tunnel led outside. However, the tunnel was piled up with dense black body bags, it was quite oozing from the outside, it was one of those places that if it wasn't an exit, then no one would want to go in.

Feng Yongle rubbed his arms with his hands and chanted Amitabha Buddha straight after seeing it.

Ruan Nan Candle frowned, "What's the use of this Western World Amitabha Buddha?"

Feng Yongle: "So I read Hallelujah?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "......."

Lin Qiushi: "..." he thought to himself that you might as well recite Long Live Ruan Nan Candle, after all, this god is right next to him and can be invited out at any time, and it's quite easy to use.

Ruan Nan Candle looked at Lin Qiushi, that look seemed to tell what Lin Qiushi was thinking about.

Lin Qiushi smiled awkwardly and quickly acted as if nothing had happened, he now wondered if Ruan Nan Candle had the ability to read minds, why else would Ruan Nan Candle be able to guess what he was thinking every time he thought about it.
