This is an old lady, a big and strong old lady, an old lady who walks very fast.

The old lady was wearing a tacky Dacron shirt with the hem covering her buttocks, and her waistband, which was rigidly squeezed by the trouser string, could be vaguely seen.

And a sharp carbon-based biological cooler clipped to the waistband of his pants.

She squinted her cloudy eyes, seemingly awake, but in fact she was sleepwalking. Her whole body was filled with hostility and resentment, and even the temperature dropped by several degrees wherever she passed.

Xia Chi held his breath, keeping a safe distance and following behind him. He followed this living devil to the fifth floor in one breath, wandered around the obstetrics department, then to the internal medicine department, and looked around in every clinic on each floor, as if... he was looking for a doctor.

It was very strange. Xia Chi's fingers were broken, but what he predicted was completely irrelevant.

【Could it be that I miscalculated? 】

[Kang Yingdi, a hospital nurse, died at the age of 39 after falling off a cliff...]

Xia Chi looked at the old lady in front of him who was over fifty years old and as strong as a bull.

Covered in cold sweat.

[That's not right, this guy... shouldn't he be lying in an ice cube, enjoying the air conditioning, right now? ? ?]

I lowered my head and calculated it again, still confused.

When I looked up again, there was no trace of the old lady.

Where are the people?

As he looked around, a cold hand rested on his shoulder...

"Ah ...

He raised his head tremblingly, only to be met with a piece of snow-white plaster bandage. On the other end of the bandage, Jiang Nan's handsome face was changing expressions in various ways, from shock to confusion to speechlessness, and finally fixed on the disgust of "This guy must be a fool."

"You..." Jiang Nan was about to speak.

Xia Chi jumped up like a spring and immediately looked down at the ground: "Ahaha, the weather is so nice today... Eh? I think I dropped my keys..."

[Help! Doesn't this shabby hospital even have a decent crack in the floor?]

[It’s not too late to apply for immigration to Mars! ]

[Is there any way to make him lose his memory painlessly? ahh ...

"Ha, it's you," he said, straightening his robe with forced composure, "Why are you following me?"

"I didn't follow you. You came back on your own."

Jiang Nan raised his hand and pointed to the side - it was the door number of the orthopedic clinic.

Xia Chi was shocked to realize that he had followed the old lady around in circles and ended up back at the starting point.

"Don't you want to go to the bathroom?" Jiang Nan glanced towards the bathroom.

“…”

One lie must be covered up with ten lies, so Xia Chi simply avoided the issue.

"Isn't the assistant here yet?" He was worried. "It's so dangerous to leave you alone in a place like this."

[It's haunted. It's haunted.]

[Please don't let anything happen to this big Buddha in my hands! ]

[I would rather die than give up even if my skin gets scratched!!]

Jiang Nan didn't know what to say. His eyes passed Xia Chi and fell on the old lady at the door of the orthopedic clinic.

An ordinary old lady.

ghost?

Jiang Nan had never seen a ghost before, so he was a little curious: "She is..."

Xia Chi was sweating profusely. He had been fighting with Jiang Nan in a battle of wits and courage all the way, and he knew very well how impatient, suspicious, violent and cruel this old lady from the underworld was. In a flash, he raised his hand to cover Jiang Nan's mouth.

But in the end, it was half a step too late.

The old woman heard someone discussing her, and her neck snapped, but her shoulders remained motionless, like a puppet being violently twisted. Her cloudy eyes, now bloodshot, pupils shrunk to the size of pinpoints, glared at Jiang Nan with a thick hatred.

Jiang Nan seemed to see a concrete murderous aura coming towards him, and his mind went blank.

A warm hand quickly covered his eyes.

The force was applied backwards, a bit too recklessly. Jiang Nan was pushed back and stumbled two steps, his back hitting the cold wall heavily.

"I can't look directly at her...it will anger her..."

The breathing sounds so close to me were messy and trembling, and the hot air brushed against my ears.

Jiang Nan realized that he had made a mess and nodded stiffly.

Time passed by second by second, and I didn't know what happened.

Jiang Nan was trapped in a tiny space, his eyes tightly covered, his lips still warm from the other man's palm. His arm in a cast rested against a violently heaving chest, the two of them pressed so close together that they were practically inseparable. Through the thin fabric, he could even clearly feel the other man's uncontrolled heartbeat.

In this strange intimacy, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind: Could this charlatan be taking advantage of the opportunity?

And he said he was not a illegitimate child!

The shadow of last night was still vivid in Jiang Nan's mind. He tensed his body and was about to push the lecher away.

"call……"

Xia Chi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and let go of him like a deflated ball.

His legs were so weak that they were shaking. He had to hold on to the wall to avoid kneeling down. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and muttered.

[I’m so scared, so scared, so scared…]

"you……"

Jiang Nan didn't feel like she was pretending, but out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of the ferocious old lady walking slowly towards the door of another clinic, her eyes so focused that they could encompass the entire universe.

He was holding a sharp fire axe in his hand.

!!!!!!

Jiang Nan realized it belatedly and shuddered. He watched the old lady put the axe back on her belt. The last cold light from the axe tip was covered by her flowered coat.

There were loud drums and firecrackers in my head.

Just now... was this axe aimed at me?

Then he thought of the Taoist priest standing in front of him like a gecko...

A warm current suddenly surged in Jiang Nan's chest, his throat rolled a few times, and he was about to say thank you.

But Xia Chi stared at his hands, his heart wailing.

[I just... pushed you against the wall?!]

[Ahhh, these hands can be applied for intangible cultural heritage! I'll soak them in formalin when I get home!]

[His lips are so soft, his eyelashes are tickling my palm, and his chest muscles are so elastic...]

「Ahhhhh——」

Jiang Nan: “…”

The feeling of emotion that had just been brewing disappeared in an instant.

This guy is either a bastard or a pervert.

"Ahem." Jiang Nan interrupted the increasingly indescribable voice in his heart, "Thank you so much for what happened just now."

Xia Chi immediately lowered his hands from covering his face and put on a gentlemanly demeanor: "Ah, what's the thank you thing? Haha, it was just an emergency, so please forgive me for any offense."

Jiang Nan: "It's okay."

"Really?" Xia Chi's eyes lit up: "It's really not a big deal?"

[What a huge loss! ]

[I should have held you for an extra three minutes and sixty seconds!]

[The Buddha said that it takes five hundred glances in previous lives to even pass by each other once in this life. I earned this blessing by breaking my neck in my previous life!]

【What's wrong with charging some interest?! 】

Jiang Nan: “…”

I really want to take back the thanks I just expressed.

"Just……"

Jiang Nan was choosing his words carefully. He couldn't look directly at her or comment on her, so how should he describe her?

Xia Chi knew what he wanted to ask. He glanced nervously at the old lady who had already walked away and lowered his voice: "Maybe she encountered... a medical dispute."

"Medical trouble?" Jiang Nan raised his eyebrows.

"Yes," Xia Chi gestured randomly, "The kind... the kind that's mentally unstable, carrying a weapon, and has violent tendencies."

Xia Chi didn't know what he was thinking about, his eyes gurgling. "Oh, right, Director Luo's assistant just sent me a message saying that the car is almost here and asked you to wait for him at the hospital entrance."

This completely unrelated sentence made Jiang Nan a little surprised.

"Oh? Really?"

"Yes, really." Xia Chi's eyes were sincere.

[I'll make up an excuse to send you, the great Buddha, away...]

[My mediocre skills can't protect you, a mediocre cat.]

[I'm bringing a disabled patient with me. If that old woman goes berserk, my shield will be enough to chop her down several times...]

He pretended to be relaxed and pulled the corner of his mouth: "Go over quickly, be careful that the people in the car are waiting anxiously."

Jiang Nan looked at him with a complicated expression, his lips tightened. "What about you?"

Xia Chi: "I, I, I want to go... poop later, yes, poop."

I have to find a way to remove the axe.

Jiang Nan looked at him silently.

"good."

As he spoke, he turned around, his back moving decisively without a trace of hesitation.

Xia Chi suddenly felt empty inside.

He turned and left, as if he had made up his mind, without even glancing at me again...

[What happened to the three meals a day, four seasons, and the day and night we were supposed to be together? Our fate is thinner than paper—]

[Jiang Lang betrayed me——]

【But I'm so lucky to be able to run so cool.】

Jiang Nan staggered ten meters away.

Xia Chi watched Jiang Nan disappear at the stairs reluctantly, breathed a sigh of relief, and quietly followed the old lady's pace.

He kept a distance from her, his eyes fixed on the axe at her waist.

With his ability, he was 90% sure that he could steal the murder weapon without anyone noticing. But the problem was, after he took the axe, what if the evil spirit went berserk on the spot? What would happen to the innocent patients around him?

The footsteps echoed in the corridor and finally stopped in front of an old elevator. The elevator door opened automatically and the old lady got in without looking back.

Xia Chi glanced inside and saw no one else. He thought to himself that God was helping him, so he slipped in.

The moment I walked in, I regretted it so much——

Some wicked designer's masterpiece, the entire front of the elevator car was a floor-to-ceiling mirror! He was caught off guard and his eyes met the old lady in the mirror.

Those cloudy eyes turned red in an instant.

"bite--"

The elevator door slowly closed behind me.

This is really... it's impossible to escape even if you have wings.

The old lady's wrinkled face gradually distorted in the ripples on the mirror, the corners of her lips tore to her ears, revealing her sharp teeth, and her pupils shrank into two dark abysses.

Xia Chi felt a sharp ringing in his ears, and the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end. He hastily looked away, pretending to study the flickering light above his head.

But the light bulb had poor contact and went out with a crackling sound.

Darkness poured down like sticky asphalt, instantly engulfing the entire elevator car. Xia Chi's breathing suddenly stopped, and his heartbeat sounded like thunder in his ears.

In the absolute silence, something seemed to be stirring, and the friction of clothes made a slight sound. Then, a clear "click" sound came from the front, like someone's bones being forcibly twisted.

The lights came on again, and the old woman in the mirror had turned around - her neck was rotated in a strange 180-degree angle, her chin almost touching her spine, but her body still remained with her back to the mirror. Her bloodthirsty eyes stared at Xia Chi, and her mouth made a "shashasha" sound.

His brain screamed to escape, but the door was locked. Xia Chi huddled in the corner and pressed all the buttons he could.

Help, he's trying to get out.

"Sizzle--" the light went out again.

I don't know which floor the old elevator has reached. The whole car is shaking. In the pitch black darkness, some liquid is dripping onto the ground, and there is also the rustling sound of metal scraping against a belt.

Someone was walking towards him, their footsteps paused, and the smell of decay was getting closer and closer with their breath.

[Fuck! This is killing me.]

Xia Chi was forced into a corner by the murderous aura, and the light came on again.

A ferocious face appeared in front of Xia Chi. The old lady's mouth was cracked, and she let out a creepy laugh, with the axe in her hand raised high.

"I found you...Sun Xiangfeng...Hahahaha...hehehe..."
