Kaguya-sama: Love Is War wants me to turn myself in.

"Doctor, I will never gamble again." The middle-aged man's eyes were bloodshot. "Give me a discharge certificate. After I leave the hospital, I will work hard and find my child and wife."

"..."

A game notification sounded in Natsuki Amamiya's ears:

"Will a discharge certificate be issued? Yes/No?"

"Please note that different choices will have different consequences, so please choose carefully."

at the same time.

A prompt slowly appeared before Natsuki Amamiya's eyes.

After careful consideration, you have chosen...

Natsuki Amamiya blinked, dispelling the notification in front of her.

Just kidding, this is such a simple multiple-choice question, you don't even need to look at the hints.

“Mr. Ishida, I understand your desire to be discharged, but…” Natsuki Amamiya changed the subject, speaking calmly.

He said, "However, I will not issue your discharge certificate."

"Why? I've tried so hard, why won't you give me a chance to change for the better?!"

The middle-aged man immediately flew into a rage, letting out a deep, beast-like roar. The muscles in his face began to contort and distort, clearly indicating that a wrong answer would make him a target of attack.

“The reason is simple…” Amamiya Natsuki said calmly and without fear, “The World Cup has officially started, and the first round of Group A is Qatar vs. Ecuador. Mr. Ishida, who do you bet on to win?”

The middle-aged man blurted out:

I bet Qatar will win!

Amamiya Natsuki sighed, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ishida, you lost your bet."

"..."

The middle-aged man then realized what had happened. The fierce expression on his face disappeared, and he returned to his harmless appearance. He silently turned around and walked out of the consultation room, looking utterly dejected.

"Doctor, how do you know he gambles?"

The boy with the woodcutter's knife asked curiously.

“It’s very simple,” said Natsuki Amamiya, crossing her fingers. “Gambling addicts are usually incorrigible.”

"..."

Natsuki Amamiya glanced at the game reviews, expecting a negative one, but upon closer inspection, she discovered there was actually a positive one.

Clearly, there is no single way to earn positive reviews for treating patients and saving lives, and we need to explore more methods.

Next, Natsuki Amamiya continued to see other patients and discovered that almost all of them were deeply obsessed.

Unfortunately, not every patient will give a positive review.

After seeing another patient, Natsuki Amamiya leaned back in her chair, about to rest for a while, when the door was suddenly pushed open and a headless high school girl walked in, getting straight to the point:

"Hana Shou has been taken away."

"Ok?"

Amamiya Natsuki frowned and sat up straight. "Explain the situation in detail."

Although the headless JK has no head, she still remembers things very clearly.

"Hua Shou received a lot of negative reviews from patients... and then the head nurse took her away, and sent me here to find you..."

Amamiya Natsuki raised an eyebrow. So, having too many negative reviews can result in hidden punishments.

As for why Hayasaka has so many negative reviews... last night she was the nurse who brought a headless high school girl to threaten patients into obeying her and used violence to deal with problems. No wonder the doctor-patient relationship is tense!

"Let's go take a look."

Amamiya Natsuki got up and walked towards the door, with the headless JK and the hatchet-wielding boy naturally following behind.

Upon entering the corridor, the lighting remained as dim and eerie as ever.

Amamiya Natsuki turned to look at the headless JK: "Aoi, lead the way."

The headless JK (high school girl) indicated she understood and led Amamiya Natsuki forward. They soon arrived at a nurses' rest room, and she said in a low voice:

"It's right inside."

Amamiya Natsuki nodded slightly, took half a step forward, and knocked on the door.

They thought they were about to break down the door, but instead, Hayasaka Ai's voice rang out from inside the house:

"Are you a senior?"

Amamiya Natsuki whispered, "It's me."

Hayasaka Ai: "The door isn't locked, you can just come in, senpai."

"..."

Chapter 456 God of War with Paraquat

"Senior, please come in."

Hayasaka Ai's voice came from the lounge.

Amamiya Natsuki pushed open the door and entered. Her gaze swept over the two people in the lounge, and she quickly understood what was going on.

If Hayasaka had really been brought here for punishment, the atmosphere between the two of them certainly wouldn't have been so peaceful, so...

"Xiao Kui, get out."

Amamiya Natsuki turned to look at the headless JK behind her.

"Yes, doctor."

The headless JK was quite obedient; without asking why, she silently turned and left.

boom.

Natsuki Amamiya gently closed the door, locked it, and looked at the head nurse whose face was covered with a blood-red gauze, whispering:

"Player?"

Given the spy maid's personality, she will only stand firm when the silly young lady is in danger. If she herself is in danger, she will definitely choose to flee as the best option.

When the headless JK came to ask for help, Amamiya Natsuki sensed something was wrong.

She's not like Komi, who just does whatever others say. Given Hayasaka's personality, since she knows the head nurse is going to punish her, she'll definitely try to find all sorts of excuses to delay. If she really can't escape, she might even get the headless high school girl to do it, creating an opportunity for herself to run away.

His current silent and obedient departure with others is clearly suspicious.

After Amamiya Natsuki entered, and seeing the two sitting there so unguarded, she immediately understood what was going on:

The head nurse in front of me is definitely a player.

“You got it right, senpai.” Hayasaka Ai looked up at her. “It’s a pity there’s no reward.”

"Hello." The head nurse stood up, her voice icy. "Nice to meet you. Please take care of me."

Since the other party was unwilling to show their true face, Amamiya Natsuki naturally wouldn't be completely honest with them either. She simply nodded and quickly got straight to the point:

"What can we do for you, Head Nurse?"

"There is indeed something I would like to ask you all for help with..." The head nurse didn't waste any words and quickly stated her intention, "I'm having some trouble with my role and I'd like to ask you all for assistance."

Amamiya Natsuki walked over and sat down next to Hayasaka, speaking slowly and deliberately:

"Please describe the details in more detail, and it would be best if you could show us the task panel."

"……no problem."

The head nurse player nodded in agreement.

A semi-transparent task panel quickly appeared in front of Natsuki Amamiya and Ai Hayasaka. Other information was concealed, and only the task panel could be viewed.

[Your current role: Head Nurse of the Emergency Department]

[Your Role/Task: The Head Nurse's Anxiety]

[Task Summary: Have you ever wondered why all the nurses in a hospital are young? Where have all the older nurses gone?]

Night shifts, irregular lifestyles, high-pressure work... the hardships of nurses are indescribable. With age-related anxieties growing daily, you have no choice but to consider your future.

Since you're a nurse, you want to climb to the top step by step, so you decide to run for head of the nursing department.

[Task Requirements: Any means necessary, successfully win the election for Director of Nursing]

After reading the mission details, Natsuki Amamiya pressed her finger to her brow: "So the highest rank for a nurse is the head of the nursing department."

Hayasaka Ai nodded: "This is the first time I've heard this either."

Amamiya Natsuki asked, "Speaking of which, what are the job responsibilities of the head of the nursing department?"

"Responsible for the nursing management of the entire hospital, simply put, it's a management position..." The head nurse explained subconsciously, then looked over speechlessly, "As long as you are elected, you have completed your task, and the subsequent work is none of my business."

After a pause, the head nurse player continued:

“I’ve done my research. There are four people, including myself, competing for the position of Director of Nursing. I have to beat the others to complete the role.”

“Since it’s an election, there will definitely be opponents. Even if it’s predetermined, there still needs to be a procedure.” Amamiya Natsuki nodded slightly, looked at the head nurse player, and asked, “What are your plans?”

The head nurse glanced at the door to make sure it was locked, then lowered her voice and stated her plan.

"I've already investigated the election details, including patient satisfaction, nurse vote counts, and so on." The random player bit his lip and whispered, "If I participate in the election through legitimate means, I don't think I can beat the other three competitors, so..."

understood.

If legitimate methods don't work, then illegitimate methods will naturally be used.

As players, when you come to a dungeon, it's not appropriate to use conventional methods to clear it.

"So my plan is to prevent the other three candidates from running for office."

After the head nurse finished speaking, she took out a medicine bottle from her pocket and chose to reveal the item's attributes.

[Item: Paraquat]

[Directions for use: Oral administration, or mixed with other liquids]

[Effect: A superior chemical product, said to be able to wither all plants, once widely used in agriculture. This item is an improved version, capable of dealing massive damage to vengeful spirits and monsters.]
