Chapter 83 Truth or Dare Game

Xia Wei stared at Shi Musheng, and actually walked up to him and pinched his face.

[A patient was detected harassing a clinic doctor. The patient will be punished with either a truth or dare.]

Hearing the mechanical voice, Xia Wei asked in surprise, "Has this dungeon become this intelligent? It can provide different answers based on the player's choices? Aren't the plot and NPCs always fixed?"

[Please select a punishment. Ten-second countdown.]

What will happen if I don't choose?

The patient will become the first member blacklisted by the "Void Playground," and the blacklist will be permanent.

Xia Wei took a deep breath. Is this some kind of serious game?
Shi Musheng was also somewhat surprised, so she became even more cautious.

Since it's an immersive experience, she's currently just Dr. Shi at the clinic.

When she heard the countdown reach three, Xia Wei immediately said, "I choose truth!"

She was just stating her true feelings. Who but herself could know whether what she said was true or not?
[The host of the truth-telling program is Dr. Shi.]

Shi Musheng looked down and sure enough, there was a name tag on her chest that read "Dr. Shi".

"You are Sheng Sheng!"

Shi Musheng didn't answer the question. Instead, he picked up a piece of white paper from the table and asked, "Have you ever betrayed your best friend?"

Xia Wei was a little stunned when she heard the question.

Is she her best friend?
Although Xia Wei and Qian Qian didn't grow up together, they hit it off immediately and became very close, inseparable. Qian Qian was a lesbian, which Xia Wei knew, but she still liked her very much. Qian Qian was petite and looked very artistic, and she was also good at writing stories.

Xia Wei would read Qianqian's stories over and over again, feeling that Qianqian was a treasure sent to her by God.

Xia Wei knew that Qianqian had a girlfriend.

What is betrayal?

Was it when she started dating Qianqian out of jealousy?

She didn't know what her motivation was; she just felt unhappy and wanted to do this.

"No," Xia Wei replied.

The mechanical voice came again: "[Has the patient truly never betrayed his best friend? Liars will swallow a thousand needles.]"

Xia Wei only saw Shi Musheng pull open the drawer under the table and take out a large handful of silver needles.

"I said no, and that's it. What makes you think I'm lying?"

[The patient refuses to be honest; the doctor suggests helping the player swallow a needle.]

Shi Musheng: ? ? ?

Are you kidding me?
Did I help her swallow the needle?

What kind of new-century virtual game is this?

While Shi Musheng was still in a daze, two tall and burly patients walked down the corridor. "We have been assigned to assist in punishing patients by making them swallow needles."

Xia Wei: !!!
"You won't resort to vigilante justice, will you? This is a society governed by law!"

Before Xia Wei could explain, two people walked over expressionlessly, grabbed her arms, and held her head in place.

Very strong.

"Sheng Sheng!"

Before Shi Musheng could react, a patient had already picked up a needle and stabbed it into Xia Wei's mouth!
The pain of the needle piercing her skin made Xia Wei confess instantly, "I admit it! I admit it! I betrayed my best friend! I caused her to break up with her boyfriend! But I didn't dare tell her the truth. I betrayed her..."

[The patient's confession has been detected; the penalty has been lifted. From now on, please adhere to the clinic's rules.]

Xia Wei looked at Shi Musheng with teary eyes. Why wouldn't Sheng Sheng help her?

Shi Musheng moved her mouth and found that she could speak, but whenever she wanted to tell Xia Wei the truth, she couldn't make a sound. Just now, she did want to stop her, but she found that she couldn't move her body and couldn't make a sound!

"Sheng Sheng, are you doing this because you think I've betrayed you too? Ask yourself honestly, have I ever betrayed you?" Shi Musheng pointed to the note on the table: "Please abide by the clinic rules. I will now see the patient."

But Xia Wei had lost the mood to play.

"I'm not going to see a doctor, I'm quitting!"

"You can't quit!" Shi Musheng blurted out.

Xia Wei's expression turned cold. "I'm not playing this dungeon anymore, and you don't need to pay for the expenses. I'll go home by myself."

Shi Musheng picked up the newly appeared note on the table and handed it over, saying, "This is the medicine you need to buy."

Xia Wei coldly held the note, her expression filled with disbelief as she read it.

"Does the patient want to cancel the consultation?" Shi Musheng asked.

Xia Wei shook her head, "I want to continue my medical treatment!"

“Only by treating the root cause can there be a chance of improvement, but based on your condition, Dr. Huang next door might be a better fit for you,” Shi Musheng blurted out, words she herself didn’t understand.

Who is Dr. Huang?
She didn't know any Dr. Huang.

Xia Wei took the note, turned around, and walked towards the next room.

Pushing open the door, she said, "Hello Dr. Huang, I've come to see a doctor."

Xia Wei stared at the doctor who had his back to her. When the doctor turned around, Xia Wei stumbled and leaned against the door, her voice trembling slightly, "You...you're human, right?"

"I am Dr. Huang."

"So your character has to wear a horse's headdress?"

Dr. Huang looked at Xia Wei without saying anything, and Xia Wei immediately explained, "I'm not being discriminatory, I was just startled."

"I understand. Some people said I was a monster, and I threw them out."

It would have been better if she hadn't explained; the explanation only made Xia Wei more terrified!

"Aren't you here to see a doctor? What's the problem?"

Xia Wei immediately stepped forward and placed the paper she had taken from Shi Musheng on Dr. Huang's desk. For some reason, the closer Xia Wei got, the more she felt that the horse's headgear was so realistic, it was practically the same as the real thing!
"Your problem isn't that serious. You feel like you betrayed your best friend, but you also saved her. The person she likes isn't even her favorite; it's just that his role happens to fit her. What she doesn't know is that he also likes other girls, and that girl isn't her. To him, she's just one of many."

Xia Wei was almost confused, but she still understood.

How many relationships are you juggling?
Although they were both girls, this behavior really made her angry.

"It's a good thing they broke up; otherwise, it wouldn't be long before your best friend was hurt. Your problem is that you don't clearly know what you really want, or whether your feelings for her are just those of best friends or something else. Don't deceive yourself."

Xia Wei left with a smile.

If you were to ask Xia Wei whether she loved Qianqian?

Xia Wei herself couldn't give an answer, but Xia Wei did care a lot about Qian Qian and was jealous of her good relationships with others.

This answer is too complicated.

Perhaps life is inherently complicated.

It's not simply about being born and surviving.

After leaving the psychology room, Xia Wei took out her phone to call Qianqian; she shouldn't have kept it from her.

But on the phone screen, Xia Wei's mouth was visible. There wasn't a single red dot where she had been pricked by the needle; her skin was perfectly fine, without any wounds.

Xia Wei rubbed the spot where she had been pricked hard. There was indeed no wound, and she couldn't feel any pain.

But while she was inside, she really felt the pain!

How can it be?
