I, a Mental Patient, Was Chosen to Participate in AnalogHorror Chapter 563 - 529: Survivor

Jiang Xiao held Shi Shi’s tiny hand as they walked across the overgrown sports field, treaded on the gravel strewn path, and eventually stopped in front of an old building.

This was the university’s cafeteria, though the sign at the entrance was faded and flaking, its familiar structure and windows were instantly recognizable.

The door of the cafeteria was ajar, and Jiang Xiao cautiously pushed it open, worried sothing unknown might suddenly leap out.

The glass door creaked, and a musty sll mixed with the scent of rotting food hit them.

Shi Shi wrinkled her little nose, but her hunger forced her to endure the discomfort.

The two cautiously entered the cafeteria, which clearly hadn’t been tended to for a while.

But it actually hadn’t been many days, as according to the diary, it hadn’t been abandoned for more than ten days.

So food ingredients were scattered on the floor, so already moldy, emitting a pungent odor.

However, there were also so foods, like dried provisions, instant noodles, canned goods, and bottled water, that still appeared intact.

Jiang Xiao first checked the expiration dates of these foods, ensuring they were still within the usable period before he began collecting them.

Shi Shi wasn’t just so delicate young girl; she helped by finding a few unopened packets of instant noodles and several bags of potato chips.

Though these items were not highly nutritious, being able to fill their stomachs was already quite good under these circumstances.

After packing up the food, Jiang Xiao found a clean table, took out a lighter, and lit so gas canisters, starting to prepare hot water.

Shi Shi sat nearby, a look of anticipation on her little face.

Before long, a steaming bowl of instant noodles was ready, which Jiang Xiao handed to Shi Shi.

The young girl took the bowl and cautiously blew on it before gobbling it down.

Jiang Xiao watched Shi Shi enjoying her al, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

Next, they needed more physical and ntal strength to explore the university filled with unknowns, seeking out clues that might be hidden in so corners or perhaps survivors.

Jiang Xiao didn’t stop his movents; his gaze swept over every corner of the cafeteria, searching for potentially overlooked food resources.

For once they left this relatively safe campus, they would face even more unknowns, and food was the foundation of their survival.

Shi Shi sat there, eating noodles while watching Jiang Xiao’s movents.

She knew he was preparing for their upcoming days, which gave her a sense of reassurance.

Jiang Xiao’s efforts soon paid off, as he discovered a whole box of unopened instant noodles behind an overturned shelf.

He hurried over, carefully packing them into their backpacks, one pack at a ti.

The backpack being too small, Jiang Xiao then found a large Stanley compound fertilizer sack in a storage room and stuffed all their collected supplies into it.

Then, he found several well-sealed barrels of water in a dark corner, a priceless resource for them.

He checked the expiration dates, confird that these food items and water were still consumable, and then carefully packed them.

After Shi Shi finished her noodles, Jiang Xiao also casually prepared a bucket of instant noodles for himself, eating while pondering their next move.

Though the taste of instant noodles wasn’t great, having a hot al in this world’s current state was a luxury.

"Dad, how are we going to find out if there are any survivors in this university?" Shi Shi asked.

"We’ll go to the broadcasting room!"

Jiang Xiao had already planned it in his mind, if there were survivors here, they would definitely show up!

...

As the two made their way to the broadcasting room, so countries had already used a reminder opportunity.

Not for anything else.

Mainly because the Chosen Ones from these countries were being overly cautious, stubbornly refusing to leave that office.

At the very least, they had to tell them the cafeteria was safe, and if that failed, those dregs could at least haul so food back to their office.

After so searching, Jiang Xiao and Shi Shi quickly arrived at the door of the broadcast room.

The door was slightly ajar, and Jiang Xiao carefully pushed it open; the dust inside indicated that no one had been here for a long ti.

Inside was a piece of equipnt and a microphone.

The switch was also clearly visible.

Jiang Xiao turned on the main switch and pressed the power button.

Smoothly, after a sound of electricity, the equipnt emitted a faint working noise, as expected.

Jiang Xiao adjusted the microphone, took a deep breath, and then pressed the broadcast button.

"This is the broadcast station. If you can hear this ssage, please co to the broadcast station as soon as possible. We have found so food and water. This place is relatively safe. I repeat, if you can hear this ssage, please co to the broadcast station as soon as possible."

He played the ssage several tis, then turned off the equipnt.

The two decided to wait near the broadcast room for a while to see if anyone would respond.

Shi Shi sat on a chair nearby, her small hand tightly holding Jiang Xiao’s, a gesture that brought him a touch of warmth.

Jiang Xiao’s gaze was firm; he knew their action could be the only hope for other survivors in the school.

Most importantly, Jiang Xiao felt that the owner of the diary might still be alive.

As long as they found him, perhaps the fog within the Kaidan could be lifted.

No one?

It had been over ten minutes...

Moreover, Jiang Xiao and Shi Shi had been watching from the balcony; had anyone been coming their way, they would have spotted them first.

It seed they were all dead...

Given that, after a patrol around the school, there would be no need for them to stay.

However, just as they were about to leave, footsteps ca from outside the door.

The door slowly opened, and a beam of light shone in; several figures stood outside, looking exhausted but filled with hope.

"We heard the broadcast," a voice trembled, "We finally found you."

emmm...

"From the sound of it, you seem to know ?"

"Know, know..."

Realizing he had misspoken, the person waved his hands repeatedly.

"Ah no, we don’t know you; we’ve never t, but we knew you would co! The punishnt sent by the gods, only a ’demon child’ can lead us to light!"

What?

Jiang Xiao could barely understand the previous part.

But what did they an by a "demon child leading them to light"?

And why were they also calling him a demon child?

Jiang Xiao instantly thought of what Pennywise had said to him, that he and Pennywise were of the sa kind...

"Why are you calling a demon child?"

"Sir, you are indeed enveloped in Demonic Qi! Besides the most top-tier curses, only a demon child can possess such outrageously overwhelming Demonic Qi!"

Jiang Xiao: .....

Is this a complint or an insult?

For a mont, he was actually a bit confused.
