Chapter 79

Chapter 79

After all, this is the game venue for the Darkest Hour, not a domestic violence scene. No matter how strange Xiyu's attitude may be, the game must continue.

The spring nurse silently walked over to Ma Guanshan's side in her nurse shoes: "Mr. Ma, it's your turn. Are you ready?"

Though others' injuries were bleeding or deformed, their minds were mostly intact. But now, Ma Guanshan felt like a broken machine, filled with unease and apprehension.

He didn't dare speak much, quickly picking up the dice and throwing it.

One point, 21st square, free square.

As the new square master, Xiyu silently watched him, neither deliberately letting him off nor making it overly difficult. He simply said, "The flowerpots in the nursing office get broken every day. Do you know who's doing it?"

The spring nurse immediately nodded and followed up with, "Yeah, the head nurse yells at me about it every day!"

Ma Guanshan, uninterested, honestly replied, "I haven't seen it myself, but yesterday, Sun Xiaya was sneaking around near there early in the morning."

Sun Xiaya, who was pointed out, suddenly looked up.

Xiyu's beautiful eyes moved slightly as he nodded without saying anything.

Ma Guanshan rolled the dice again.

Five points, 26th square, blank square.

He secretly rejoiced, quickly running up and throwing the giant dice for the third time.

Four points, 30th square, free square!

The spring nurse clapped her hands: "Not bad, the 30th square belongs to Ma Guanshan. If anyone lands on it, they must answer his questions."

At this moment, not being hurt was the best news. Ma Guanshan easily completed the game and began to sit back and watch the drama.

The spring nurse walked over to the continuously coughing Yuan Wei: "Are you okay?"

Yuan Wei's tears burst out, her face was burning red. She hurriedly nodded and threw the dice.

Five points! 25th square, damage square!

Zhou Rong, standing nearby, added fuel to the fire: "Look, look, the NC is punishing someone they don't like again."Fu Er had never spoken during the Darkest Hour, but ever since jumping ahead, he began to target others: "So why does every NC like Xiyu?"

Luckily, Zhou Rong, who liked to bite back, immediately mocked him: "Because he's more likable than you! Just look at your behavior, it's disgusting!"

Although she was sharp-tongued, she wasn't wrong.

Fu Er had been drenched in soup by Luo Xi, and even now, he hadn’t bothered to wash himself properly. Now, he emitted an indescribable odor, like a rat.

Xiyu wasn't polite either, smiling lightly: "Did it never occur to you that maybe he's afraid of water, or maybe something related to the bathroom?"

Fu Er, who already looked bad, turned even darker, almost like the bottom of a pot.

Zhou Rong laughed: "Afraid of water? Did he get rabies? I think it looks more like that!"

"Alright, alright, quiet down," the spring nurse clapped her hands helplessly. "Yuan Wei, continue."

Yuan Wei, who had already been scratched by the air blade, regained her composure and threw the dice with difficulty.

Unexpectedly, luck was on her side, and she rolled a full six points, landing on the 31st square, the most precious inducement square.

Yuan Wei ignored everyone, staggering bloodily as she went forward and tremblingly grabbed the inducement.

The inducement had a glowing crescent moon pattern on it!

Vampires, the moon, light…

Too many related associations made everyone's gaze fall on Xiyu.

However, Xiyu didn’t even frown. He just silently stared at Yuan Wei.

Yuan Wei sneered, picked up the dice, and threw it. Two points, 33rd square, blank square.

The space that had already been squeezed by Luo Xi and Sun Xiaya became even tighter.

Yuan Wei, unable to move, squeezed into a tiny corner, avoiding eye contact with anyone.

Although she had gotten the crescent inducement, the spring nurse didn’t show any special concern for Xiyu, instead smiling and looking at Zhou Rong: "Your turn, Miss Zhou."

Zhou Rong, being impatient, immediately picked up the dice and threw it.Three points, treatment square!

The warm green light gently healed some of the wounds on her body.

Zhou Rong deliberately stretched her muscles and bones before continuing to roll the dice.

Three points, the free square belonging to Ma Guanshan.

Zhou Rong, not at all hesitant, provocatively looked at Ma Guanshan while walking, saying, "What do you want to know? Ask away."

Ma Guanshan furrowed his brows, thought for a moment, and asked, "What were you sneaking around doing in the file room during the day?"

Zhou Rong responded confidently, "Checking medical records!"

Ma Guanshan pressed further, "Why were you checking medical records?"

Zhou Rong rolled her eyes, "You've already asked, what I was doing, you can figure that out yourself."

Ma Guanshan, who wasn’t good at dealing with sharp-tongued young girls, could only choose to back down.

Zhou Rong rolled the dice again, deliberately explaining, "How dumb are you? I just wanted to see if there were any records of everyone's illnesses there, okay?"

At that moment, the dice flew out—four points, host square.

Zhou Rong boldly walked over and glared at the spring nurse: "Hey, have you been stealing medicine from the hospital?"

Xiyu and Luo Xi exchanged glances, confirming that Zhou Rong had gathered pretty much the same information as they had.

The spring nurse blinked: "No... the medicine belongs to the patients. Why would I steal it?"

"Okay, my bad," Zhou Rong sat down right where she was and announced, "Don’t come to my square, I don’t want to squeeze in with you guys!"

The spring nurse, with a gentle expression, turned around and walked over to Sun Xin: "Your turn."

Sun Xin, who usually exuded a smug swagger, was unusually quiet today. At the sound, he picked up the dice and tossed it.

Three points, the 28th square, survival square.

He took a deep breath and quickly walked forward!So far, everyone had shown signs of something being off, but no one really knew what illness Sun Xin had.

However... this man looked perfectly fine, and facing a survival challenge shouldn’t be a problem, right?

But the outcome was unexpected.

The spring nurse silently waited for a while, looking at the clock, then said, "Unfortunately, Sun Xin has failed. You lose one point of health."

As she spoke, Sun Xin staggered and fell, supporting his arm.

The spring nurse, a very caring person, immediately reached out and brought out various medical tools, skillfully helping him stabilize his arm, saying, "Be careful."

Sun Xin’s face was grim.

Zhou Rong blinked, "Did you break a bone?"

Broken bone... brittle bone disease...???

Xiyu felt the same doubt in his mind: Could it be that the bone-inducing agent originally targeted for Luo Xi wasn’t just for him?

No, wait... brittle bone disease, also known as "porcelain doll disease," wasn’t that what Sun Xinyao got, the one with the doll pattern inducing agent?

While Xiyu was lost in thought, Sun Xin had already thrown the dice again.

Six points, the 34th square, host square.

He quickly stepped forward and eagerly asked, "Nurse, where's the nutrient solution? Tell me quietly."

This person was entirely focused on the nutrient solution, which likely meant he had an ordinary background, otherwise, he would be really good at pretending.

—Xiyu couldn’t help but think.

The spring nurse cooperated and immediately went over to Sun Xin, standing on tiptoe to whisper in his ear.

This move was good news for the streamers, indicating that at least the nutrient solution hadn't been quickly searched and depleted like it had been the day before.

After receiving the valuable information, Sun Xin's expression became much better. He threw the dice for the third time, getting four points, and landed on the 38th free square.

The spring nurse smiled, "From now on, the 38th square belongs to Sun Xin. You all better be careful now."Ying Zhixing watched as Sun Xin stopped playing, coldly speaking, "My turn, hurry up."

The spring nurse turned around just as the dice flew to Ying Zhixing's feet.

Zhou Rong mocked, "You better hurry, or you'll lose all your blood."

Ying Zhixing gave Zhou Rong a disgusted look before throwing the dice.

Three points, the 25th damage square!

At this moment, any damage was bad news for him. Ying Zhixing’s bandages were soaked in blood, and his face was pale, but he didn’t have the luxury of refusing. He had no choice but to move forward and endure it!

The lost blood felt like lost life. The other streamers watched without blinking, most of them hoping this strong opponent would be out of the game soon.

Ying Zhixing was very strong. He steadied his steps and threw the dice again.

Four points, the free square belonging to Xiyu.

Actually, for this person who had hardly shown any flaws, Xiyu couldn’t think of much to ask, but he didn’t know how Yao Shengming died. After some consideration, he suspected that it was the effect of Ying Zhixing's hat-induced agent, so he couldn’t help but ask, "Did you kill Yao Shengming?"

Ying Zhixing didn’t even blink, "Yes."

Xiyu shrugged, turned his head, and didn’t reply.

Ying Zhixing threw the dice for the last time—six points, the 35th blank square.

He exhaled softly, walked over, and sat down, carefully holding the wound that wouldn’t stop bleeding to rest.

The spring nurse looked at Fu Er’s dirty appearance and didn’t want to approach, instead calling from a distance, "Little brother, it’s your turn."

As the king of blank squares, everyone was curious whether Fu Er would pull off another miracle today.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Fu Er suddenly threw the dice.

And, as expected, the result lived up to the anticipation—four points, the 26th blank square.

Luo Xi raised an eyebrow and stared, of course, completely unable to understand.

Fu Er secretly smiled and walked over, pulling out a card from his pocket. "I want to use this, is that okay?"The spring nurse leaned in for a closer look, nodded, and said, "It’s a point card, of course, no problem. How many squares do you want to move forward?"

Fu Er peered ahead, counted, and answered, "Five points, I want to move to the 31st誘導格."

The spring nurse waved her right hand gently, and the dice automatically flipped to five points. She politely said, "Please."

Fu Er walked over smugly and grabbed the誘導劑 that fell in the orange light.

The streamers, with their exceptional eyesight, all looked over and noticed that the bottle had a winding, worm-like pattern. Could it be some kind of parasite or virus?

Fu Er, being petty, immediately held the bottle in his hand and then threw the dice himself.

His strange luck struck again.

Two points, the 33rd blank square.

Standing in that square, Luo Xi, Sun Xiuyan, and Yuan Wei all showed expressions of disgust.

Fortunately, after Fu Er squeezed in with his foul odor, the spring nurse let out a sigh of relief and announced loudly, "Alright, everyone, thank you for your hard work. Today's Dark Hour ends here, and I hope the rest of the day is peaceful."

As she finished speaking, all the scenes twisted and spun, eventually disappearing.

Xiyu and Luo Xi were pulled into the Dark Hour together, and after falling out, they naturally ended up next to each other.

Xiyu didn’t have time to think about anything else and immediately grabbed his bloodied arm, asking, "How are you?"

"The survival squares are getting harder to pass," Luo Xi reassured. "But I can still hang on. If my blood runs out and I can’t get into the Dark Hour, you’ll need to be extra careful."

Xiyu, who had always been afraid of getting hurt, carried bandages and disinfectants: "Let me quickly bandage you."

Luo Xi smiled faintly, took what Xiyu had in his hand, and softly said, "Avoid Yuan Wei."

In that moment, the winter nurse appeared, looking fierce and displeased, saying, "Hey, how did you two get out again? Can’t you let me have a peaceful day?"

As she spoke, the large men made of shadows immediately separated them and dragged them away, quickly hauling them back to the ward.
