Chapter 98: The Fatal Blow
The four walked out of the hospital ward and saw the corridor was filled with hospital staff. It was almost ten pm at night, yet they were all congregated around Xing Ye's door. No matter how you looked at it, they were monitoring them, and doing so brazenly at that.
Seeing the group co out, a doctor walked over and asked, " Xing Ye, where are you going?"
Xing Ye said suspiciously, "Who are you?"
The doctor said, "I'm your primary doctor! Oh, right, you must've forgotten. Anyways, everyone's heard about the incident you caused in the Gynecology Departnt today. I want to have a talk with you."
"A talk with
in front of so many people?" Xing Ye looked around. There was at least ten hospital staff scattered around the corridor, as well as a few psychiatric patients. They were all wandering in front of his door late at night instead of sleeping. "There's no need to talk, Doctor Guan's already lectured
enough. I know now that I was wrong, and I won't do it again. I'm going to walk Doctor Guan back to the Infectious Disease Departnt now, can you not block the way?"
"Ah, the Infectious Disease Departnt. You should hurry then, it's already ten. Go to rest early, it'll be dangerous if you sleep too late." The primary doctor said sinisterly.
"Got it." Xing Ye said casually.
The four pushed through the crowd. Whether it was the hospital staff or the patients, their eyes were all filled with malice as they looked at them. Fortunately, none of them chased them and just watched as Xing Ye's group entered the staircase.
"They didn't follow us..." Guan Ling gave a sigh of relief when the door behind them closed.
"That's because they're confident we can't do anything." Xing Ye looked at the surveillance cara in the corner of the staircase.
Yan Hebi frowned, "The staircase never had surveillance caras before. These are recently installed and aren't linked to the existing surveillance caras. Otherwise, I would've seen them earlier."
"As I expected." Xing Ye didn't show any signs of alarm, "They must've realized we were moving through the staircase today, so it's no surprise they'd want to imdiately install so monitoring caras. Actually, the caras aren't all that bad. Without them, my primary doctor probably would've followed us to confirm where we were going. Do you guys want a monster trailing us?
The three all shook their heads.
"Why aren't they following us?" Cao Qian asked.
"Because their intentions are only to monitor my ward. The departnt head's office and the Infectious Disease Departnt are their key protected areas. I said I wanted to go to the Infectious Disease Departnt, so of course they have no need to co with us." Xing Ye said.
The group passed through the corridor on the 17th floor and went to the 18th floor. The Infectious Disease Departnt was on the 20th floor. They didn't go there, instead using the elevator to reach the 18th floor.
The hallway was dead silent and the wall lights were all off, like nobody had ever existed here before.
The quieter it was, the more oppressive the atmosphere felt. The four walked to the departnt head's door. Xing Ye nodded at Yan Hebi, who pulled out Master Key and opened the departnt head's door.
The mont the door opened, the four swiftly retreated behind both sides of the door. It went just as Xing Ye expected: when the door opened, an enormous tentacle flew out from the door, sprouting a sticky, corrosive liquid. It likely wanted to kill them in one quick surprise attack but didn't expect Xing Ye and the others to dodge so fast.
Yan Hebi leaned on the side of the door as he recalled what Xing Ye said earlier: if the departnt head's door was hard to open and took a while even with the Master Key, they needed to be cautious. People would always relax for a mont after accomplishing a hard task. That mont was the best target for a sneak attack, so they had to be prepared for an attack upon opening the door.
Just as Xing Ye said, the monster would make a surprise attack. When it missed the surprise attack, it would be surprised for a mont; that was the best chance to strike!
After the tentacle's corrosive sli sizzled away and the door was left open, Cao Qian jumped on the door like a cat struggling to maintain its balance. Her body whirled, silver light glinting from her hands as countless bloody cuts appeared on the tentacle.
She was using "Surgeon's Scapel
