the last gentleman

Chapter 56



Chapter 56
In the front yard area of ​​the clinic and the external forest, there were only traces of ash and no living creatures.

The two temporarily hid under a broken tree in the front yard,

Observing the main building of the clinic, which is covered with moonlight silver clothes and gray air currents are constantly escaping from the surface.

As if the moon is like a spotlight, the clinic is its main target.

After observing for a period of time, Yi Chen whispered his doubts.

"The longer I observe, the more I feel that this clinic exposed to the moonlight becomes strange, and it is completely different from the clinic we explored during the day... It seems to be bigger, deeper, and there is an indescribable feeling. A sense of disobedience."

Edmund immediately added: "Activity, isn't it?"

"That's right, that's the feeling... It seems that the whole building is slowly recovering, like a living thing. If you want to walk in through the main entrance, it's like walking into the body of a monster."

Edmund simply explained:

"That's what graying does.

According to the rumors, the gray space that has been formed, the landform structure, or the buildings left by humans will change drastically, and some unreasonable areas will even appear.

These areas are more like living things, wriggling, crawling, and even swallowing all intruders.

The graying situation inside the clinic is quite serious, and I estimate that within a week, this place will officially become a thin gray area. "

Hearing such an explanation, Yi Chen was even more puzzled.

"I have a question... When we came tomorrow, there was no sign of ash yet.

Why did the ashes reach this level in the middle of the night?Is there no excess in the middle? "

however,
The question Yi Chen asked also troubled Edmund, and he had been thinking about it during the period of observation under the tree.

Biting her nails, she made a bold guess:
"To be reasonable, [ashing] will not be interrupted.

This level of ashes definitely did not happen just now, it has been at least seven days.

I suspect that all this has something to do with the 'moon'... maybe because of the appearance of the moon, the two of us were brought into a [same space]. "

This kind of speculation reminded Yi Chen of a game setting in his previous world,
"The world inside and outside?
Is it possible that only the two of us were affected by the moonlight and were brought [inside].

Dagbert and Miss Anna were not affected, and they remained on the [surface]?
In this case, the problem of sudden disappearance can be explained. "

When he came to this more likely guess, Edmund's expression became extremely ugly.

"If this is the case, we will most likely die here.

A person who can create [co-located space] and has the characteristics of the moon is at least a seriously ill person, even very close to open source... an important person who has not been cleared of the 'false moon incident'. "

at this time,

Little Putao suddenly jumped out, her hands were waving, her eyes were full of excitement!

"It's really interesting~ In this case, there might be 'Moon Grapes' to eat! You guys have to work hard to find out who created the 'Moon'.

Ben Putao very much agrees with your speculation just now. "

Little Putao's slightly humorous language eased the tense atmosphere slightly,

Yi Chen followed this speculation and continued to raise his own doubts.

"If there is such a strong person, when we were in the clinic and killed the patient on the rooftop just now, the other party could come out and kill us.

Actually nothing happened,

The thing about [co-location space] is just our current speculation.
certainly!If there really are two overlapping spaces, maybe the "legacy of the secret medicine" is here.

Come on, let's take a look inside the clinic. "

"Well~ But, we must be careful! Once we investigate enough clues to prove that there is a terrifying existence far stronger than us behind the clinic, we will immediately terminate the mission and rush to the assembly point of the carriage."

"Ah."

The two set off,

With the isolation and concealment provided by clothing, quietly approach the main entrance of the main building

Yi Chen is in the front, Edmund is in the back,

It is worth noting that

Although the moonlight can project into the interior of the clinic, it provides enough light.

But the two still lit the kerosene lamp,
The flames produced by the burning can not only dispel the darkness, but also separate the 'moonlight' that is not quite right.

When they stepped into the lobby on the first floor,

Both of them froze in place, seemingly unable to accept the scene in front of them.

【Gray-Erosion】

The transformation taking place inside the clinic was far more than either of them could have imagined.

1. There are some small holes and abscess tissue on the surface of the wall, and liquid flows out of it continuously.

2. The elevator that was supposed to be broken on the opposite side was completely repaired, but the elevator was painted in dark red, and matched with the internal lights, it was like a big blood-red mouth, waiting for the prey to enter.

3. There is a [Nurse] sitting at the counter, wearing a clean nurse uniform and white cap, but with a bandage on his face.

tick~
Blood continued to seep from between the bandages, reflecting a 'bloody face with an open mouth'

The nurse didn't have any fingernails, replaced by slender needles poking out of her fingertips.

Squeak~ The table is being scraped regularly, making an extremely piercing sound.

Seeing this, Yi Chen and Edmund took out their weapons at the same time and approached the counter.

at this time
The nurse lady suddenly spoke, and more blood seeped out from the bandage around her mouth:

"Welcome to [Moonlight Clinic], I have been waiting for you here for a long time.

You were able to avoid Dr. Ma Lin's ward rounds calmly and decisively, and then killed Dr. Francis on the rooftop... Your agility and bravery have been recognized by Mr. Lee.

As the person in charge of the Moonlight Clinic, he wants to meet with you. Some things need to be discussed in person, and he will even give you some special rewards.

If you refuse to meet,

You will be forever trapped in the [Moonlight Space] created by Mr. Li, who is the closest existence to the "Moonmark".

At the same time, our clinic will dispatch all staff to hunt and kill you endlessly... until you are deprived of your mobility, and then undergo a full-body reconstruction operation on you. "

While Edmund was still hesitating,

Yi Chen put his arm lightly on his shoulder, and whispered:

"Our conjecture is correct, the existence of a suspected [seriously ill person] created this co-located space.And the two of us were drawn in for some unknown reason.

What the nurse just said is enough to show that they knew our actions from the very beginning,

They chose to test their strength, rather than kill us directly... Obviously there is a certain 'demand' for us.

Choosing to 'meet' is the only chance of survival,
I have experience in communicating and cooperating with patients, so I will be responsible for the next 'meeting'. 』

"Row……"

With no better options, Edmund could only bite the bullet and agree.

Yi Chen took a step forward, put his arm on the counter casually, and cast a look at the nurse sister.

"Please lead the way."

"Okay, please come with me."

The nurse limped into the crimson-lit elevator.

The right panel of the elevator is covered with buttons in the form of meat bubbles, and the numbers engraved on them are all negative numbers.
