Rules of the Strange: I Can See Through All the Weird

Qi Tong took the water from the nurse, and under the nurse's watchful eye, threw the medicine into his mouth and symbolically drank a sip of water.

Seeing the swallowing motion, the nurse checked Qi Tong's mouth before leaving, relieved.

At the same time, a bubble burst in the grass outside the window, releasing water droplets. Three white pills were scattered in the grass, some of them melting from the water.

It was Qi Tong. Before putting the medicine and water into her mouth, she had already prepared love bubbles to send.

She didn't even dare to drink the water here until she knew the real rules.

The two NPCs in the ward were also relatively quiet; one was coaxing a doll to sleep, and the other was sleeping the whole time.

Just as Qi Tong was about to go and check on the NPC who had been sleeping, she heard the bell ring.

"It is now 9:30 a.m. All patients, please go to the hospital for morning exercises under the guidance of the nurses."

As the broadcast ended, the same nurse from before pushed open the door and entered again.

"Let's go, let's do morning exercises."

She was hurrying the people in the ward.

Seeing that the patient by the door was still asleep, she reached out and pulled him.

"10:65, get up now!"

Seeing that the patient still hadn't woken up despite her efforts, the nurse calmly took out a syringe and medication from her pocket.

They seemed to have become accustomed to such scenes and were no longer surprised.

The light green medicine looked more like poison than a cure.

But after one injection, the woman who couldn't be woken up a second ago slowly opened her eyes the next second.

Her eyes were bloodshot. When she heard the nurses telling her to do morning exercises, she slowly got up, standing there like a puppet.

She pulled back the blanket, revealing an abnormally swollen upper body that was completely unrecognizable as part of a single human body compared to her lower body.

She walked out of the ward step by step with difficulty.

The nurse followed, and the NPC holding the rag doll also followed on his own.

Qi Tong was pondering what these potions actually were.

Seeing that Qi Tong didn't move, the three of them turned around at the same time, tilted their heads, and said expressionlessly, "Keep up."

Qi Tong gave a fake smile and immediately followed behind them.

Walk through the corridor and into the lobby.

All patients must gather here, and then nurses will lead the patients in their assigned wards to form a morning exercise formation inside the hospital.

All players gathered in the lobby.

Blood-red patterns slowly appeared on the white walls of the hall.

1. You must listen to the nurses. They will not intentionally harm you.

2. The food in the cafeteria is delicious, but don't eat meat.

3. Do not waste food.

4. Don't anger the doctor; doctors can be terrifying when they get angry.

5. Do not drink the water from the water dispenser in the ward. If you are very thirsty, please go to the cafeteria and ask the staff for mung bean soup.

6. If you encounter any danger, you can contact the director; he can resolve all your problems.

7. Do not go to the basement; it is dangerous.

8. The director will only appear in his office outside of mealtimes; he will not be seen anywhere else. If you see him outside the director's office...

Run! Run! Run!

This wasn't the standard system font from the previous instances; instead, it looked like someone had written it in blood. The characters were crooked and distorted, especially the last three "run"s, with dried blood dripping onto them.

The handwriting looks familiar.

Qi Tong stared at the line "Run!" and suddenly took out the slip of paper from his pocket and unfolded it.

She wasn't comparing the overall handwriting; she was comparing a single character: "不" (bù).

The last stroke of the character "不" on the note has a very obvious upward hook, as if the writer habitually flicked it upward.

The last stroke of the character "不" (not) in the sign on the wall that reads "Don't drink the water in the ward" also has an identical hook.

"Waaah... Jingchen-ge, what should we do? Are we going to die in this dungeon?" A soft, delicate voice came from inside.

Qi Tong looked in the direction of the sound.

The owner of the voice was carefully tugging at the hem of a man's clothes.

The man took her hand and patted it gently. He lowered his head and whispered soothingly, "No, Xue Ning, I'm here. I won't let you get hurt."

Song Xuening was deeply moved and immediately took Lu Jingchen's arm.

Lu Jingchen also lowered his head affectionately and rubbed his face against the top of her head.

It's obvious that the two are a couple.

"But won't my sister be angry? After all, you two are the couple in other people's eyes." Song Xuening leaned against Lu Jingchen's chest and said sullenly.

"You're the only one in my heart. Once we get out of this hellhole, I'll break off my engagement with her." After saying this, Lu Jingchen looked at the woman standing to the side.

Qi Tong, who had just thought the two were a couple, was now greatly shocked.

Do you city folks play like this?

Qi Tong followed Lu Jingchen's gaze and looked over.

She was a beautiful woman, and although she was also wearing a hospital gown, her demeanor still made her stand out at a glance.

Her presence there was like the cool moonlight, making everyone around her appear dim and insignificant.

Like a noble lady who stepped out of a book.

Her face was expressionless, but a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes as she looked at Lu Jingchen and Song Xuening.

Qi Tong's gaze swept through the crowd and landed on Xu Ning, who was also watching the drama unfold. The two exchanged a glance, Qi Tong raised an eyebrow, and Xu Ning raised her hand to make a "shh" gesture.

I won't tell, I won't tell~

Soon, all the patients were lined up inside the hospital.

One of the nurses, holding a megaphone, announced: "Morning exercises will begin now. Ready, set, go!"

"One, two, three, four; five, six, seven, eight; two, two, three, four..."

Players didn't know what to do, so they could only follow the actions of other NPCs, keeping their eyes glued to the screen for even a moment, afraid of falling behind.

Suddenly, an NPC turned around and pushed the male player behind him to the ground.

"Why have you been copying me all this time?" the NPC shouted angrily.

"I...I didn't learn from you, I was doing exercises..." the male player answered him timidly.

"You're talking nonsense! You've been copying me all along, my sister said she's seen it."

After saying that, he tossed his messy long hair aside and showed it to the male player.

"Look! My sister has been watching you from here!"

Upon hearing this, the male player stood up and moved closer. When he saw what was in front of him, he screamed and fell back to the ground in fright.

The commotion quickly attracted the attention of the nurses, and all of them came over. Even the nurse who had been shouting slogans at the front put down the megaphone and came over.

The male player thought he had broken some rule and that the nurses were there to deal with him, but upon closer inspection, there was no rule that said he couldn't shout.

The nurse didn't make things difficult for him; she just asked what had happened.

The man recounted what had happened, then looked at the NPC who had pushed him with fear, pointing at him and saying, "He...he has a face on the back of his head!"

The nurse in the lead glanced at the NPC who was proudly showing off his "little sister," her expression remaining unchanged.

She simply pulled the male player up, saying calmly, "There's a face on the back of his head. Just stay away from him next time you do exercises."

All the players' eyes were focused on the "human-faced NPC".

Seeing everyone's eyes on him, the NPC proudly spun around and shouted, "You all want to see my sister, right! I knew it! My sister is the prettiest! Come on! Let me show you!"

So you're a siscon psychopath?
