Altar of Infinity

"Tang Chu? I have an impression," Xie Quan said, looking through the medical records, quickly found a page, and handed the whole book to Xie Ji, "I haven't been here for long, because I have a fever, and now I am drinking water on the third floor. Prescribed a bottle of liquid for him, and he will have to hang for half an hour."

Xie Ji: "What is the cause of the fever?"

Xie Quan: "It's mainly because of a cold, but I think he's not in a good state of mind, he's preoccupied, and part of the reason is that the school may be under a lot of pressure, and I've seen three people for psychological counseling all morning. "

After reading it, Xie Ji handed the case to Jiang Jichu, and said to Xie Quan, "Have your points increased?"

Xie Quan: "I added [-], as long as I see a doctor for a student, I can add [-] points."

Xie Quan is a school doctor, and his job is to see doctors for students. Every visit is equivalent to completing the basic task. If there are more patients, the points will be increased a lot.

Xie Ji is not interested in scoring No.1, but the driver reminds him not to be the last one.

He opened his mouth to remind: "When encountering mild symptoms, just pull and give lectures to the other party. One can add [-]."

Xie Quan: "So many! Then if I go to the playground to give a lecture, wouldn't I want to make money!"

Xie Ji smiled: "You can go if you want."

Xie Quan thought about it for a while, but gave up the idea of ​​giving a lecture: "Forget it, shoot the top bird, and I'll just eat with my brother and seniors."

Jiang Jichu returned the case to Xie Quan, but he didn't say anything, just stood there with arms folded, quietly waiting for the Xie family brothers to finish their chat.

Xie Quan: "Brother, are you going to the third floor to find this Tang Chu?"

Xie Ji: "Yes, I suspect that he has clues about the main story."

"Hmm..." Xie Quan hesitated for a moment, "I always think the third floor is a bit weird."

Xie Ji: "Weird?"

Xie Quan frowned: "Yes, but I can't tell why. It looks normal everywhere, but it just feels weird. In short, you should be careful when you go."

Xie Ji: "I see, you should pay attention to your own safety."

Xie Ji told Xie Quan to find the nearest teammate for help if he had anything to do, and then took Jiang Jichu to the third floor to find Tang Chu.

When walking on the first and second floors, Xie Ji didn't feel anything, but as soon as he stepped on the third floor, Xie Ji understood what Xie Quan said was "weird".

The hospital is very cloudy, but the school is only a three-story building, but it is not much less.

The entire third floor was occupied by wards, but the corridor was very quiet, without the slightest sound of living people.

It’s only early two o’clock, and the weather is turning from cloudy to sunny today. It’s the time when the sun is shining, and the glass windows that can be wiped to the point of no mud marks are like high-grade filters. The warm light will be frozen when it touches it. When it fell into the corridor, it had already turned into ice slag, and the temperature dropped a few degrees for nothing.

The third floor seems to be separated from the two floors below, becoming an independent space.

Xie Ji and Jiang Jichu exchanged glances, and they each went to the ward 305 that Xie Quan said on their guard.

There was no one inside.

Not just in Ward 305, they didn't meet a single living creature on the entire third floor.

Xie Ji looked around, and finally locked his eyes on a bed with messy white covers.

He walked over and touched the bed, and it was still warm.

He couldn't see it at the door just now, but when he came to the hospital bed, he found that there was still a piece of Ming Sheng's school uniform wrapped around the foot of the bed.

"Maybe I went to the bathroom," Xie Ji made a judgment, "The third floor is not right, you stay here and wait, just in case, I will go to the bathroom to have a look."

Jiang Jichu had no objection.

The bathroom is at the end of the third floor. In addition to the urinals, there are two rows of cubicles in the men's toilet.

After Xie Ji regained his sense of taste, his sense of smell was still very sensitive, and the smell of disinfectant in the bathroom irritated his nasal cavity, making him uncomfortable.

But the bathroom environment made him even more uncomfortable.

The same incandescent lamp, hanging from the ceiling of the bathroom, reveals a pale meaning, even overpowering the sunlight entering the space, illuminating every detail without any dead ends.

He could hear the regular sound of water dripping from the sewer pipe, and he didn't know how the bathroom pipe was set up. The sound seemed to come from all directions.

Xie Ji called Tang Chu's name, but got no response.

Is it absent, or does not respond, or... can't respond?

"Those who were at the bottom of the test before either disappeared or were worse than death."

The words of the little fat man appeared in Xie Ji's mind.

Tang Chu's ranking hovered around the bottom thirty. Although it was poor, it was not extremely bad.

Xie Ji didn't think the last thirty were the standard line to trigger "danger", otherwise Tang Chu wouldn't wait until now to have an accident.

Could it be that his grades have plummeted and he refuses to change after repeated admonitions?

Under normal circumstances, there would be a reason for a sharp drop in grades, and Tang Chu was not in a good spirits and had a lot of preoccupations. What was Tang Chu's preoccupation?

Xie Ji frowned slightly, intending to open ten compartments one by one to confirm that they were empty.

There was nothing in the first nine, and when he reached the last one, there was a harsh friction sound from the corridor outside the bathroom, and it was getting closer and closer to the bathroom.

He made a decisive decision, opened the compartment and walked in.

The tenth compartment was also empty.

Tang Chu is not in the bathroom.

Xie Quan only prescribed one bottle of liquid for Tang Chu, but it lasted for more than half an hour. According to the time in the case, Tang Chu's liquid hadn't finished yet.

It shouldn’t be an accident. If the assailant didn’t know how to clean up the scene, then the infusion bottle should still be in the ward. If the assailant could clean up the scene, he should also take away the school uniform and the quilt of the hospital bed. .

Tang Chu left by himself.

There is no one else on the third floor, and a high school student with a fever can still leave with a bottle in his hand. What he encounters will not be too important, at least he will be safe when he leaves.

Xie Ji thought about Tang Chu's whereabouts while paying attention to the movement outside.

The friction sound stopped for a few seconds at the bathroom door, and then entered the bathroom.

The voice was slower than in the hallway, but it also became harsher and more piercing because of the slowness.

Like a cart with rusty tires.

"Boom-thump-thump-"

In addition to the sound of rubbing, Xie Ji heard a knock on the door again.

But he didn't hear any breathing or footsteps!

"Squeak-"

The door to the first compartment was pulled open.

Then the second fan, the third fan...

With Xie Ji's current hearing ability, he can't hear footsteps at such a close distance, unless the other party is not human at all.

He draws the gun and gently pulls the safety catch.

He had snatched the gun from an advanced level before, and it was most effective against gods and ghosts.

It needs to be opened one by one to confirm, which means that the things outside cannot directly determine where he is, the level is not high enough, or it is deliberately causing psychological pressure on him.

Either way, he wasn't afraid.

Xie Ji didn't plan to wait for something outside to open the door of his cubicle. Firstly, the cubicle was small, so he didn't have an advantage in a fight. Secondly, he was a big man, so what's the matter if someone opened the door of the toilet cubicle? .

When the fifth door was opened, Xie Ji pushed it open and walked out.

Although the things on the outside are definitely not kind, but he is calm and unhurried, even the sleeves are neatly rolled up, and the movement of stepping out of the compartment can even be called graceful.

He pulled the door of the compartment with one hand to prevent the force of the rebound from making too much noise, the hand holding the gun was behind his back, and the index finger was tightly holding the trigger.

"Boom-"

The thing in front of him obviously didn't have such a good rest for Xie Ji, even though the compartment door slammed back against the threshold heavily.

is a woman.

To be precise, it was a female nurse pushing a cart full of various bottles and cans.

In terms of bone appearance alone, she should look like a little beauty, but her face seems to have chosen the wrong color of foundation, the degree of whiteness is too much, and the pale incandescent light is reflected on it, just like a painted dummy .

Her face was expressionless, but her brows were full of shadows, as if she wanted to swallow people alive.

However, after seeing Xie Ji, the nurse was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

Her expression changed strangely and abruptly, and the smile she forcibly raised was even more rigid.

She smiled so stiffly and said, "So it's the dean."

Xie Ji asked politely, "You are?"

Nurse: "I'm a nurse in our school. I heard movement in the bathroom. I'm afraid that something happened to someone, so I came in to make sure."

Come in to see if someone has an accident, and push the cart.

Xie Ji pretended not to see the sharp point of the knife under the pallet on the second floor of the cart, and said with a smile, "Thanks for your hard work, it's fine."

The nurse said "Hey", and without any precautions, she showed her back and pushed the cart outside.

Xie Ji squinted his eyes looking at the nurse's back.

The nurse did come in after hearing the movement, but it was definitely not to confirm whether something happened inside.

She is looking for someone.

She thought that the person she was looking for was hiding in the toilet cubicle, so she was stunned for a moment when she saw him, and greeted him "normally" after she realized it.

After leaving the bathroom, the nurse walked all the way to the end of the corridor, and Xie sent back to Ward 305.

Jiang Jichu sat obediently on the other bed, and stood up when he saw Xie Ji: "I heard voices outside."

He believed that Xie Ji's strength was enough to deal with the fifth floor, and if something happened, he would definitely call him, so he didn't rush to the bathroom rashly, but stayed in 305 obediently, so as not to ruin Xie Ji's plan.

Xie Ji glanced out the window, confirmed that the nurse had gone away, and told Jiang Jichu what happened in the bathroom just now.

Jiang Jichu thought for a while: "She may be looking for Tang Chu."

Xie Ji: "That's right, we have read the medical records, and Tang Chu is the only one who needs to stay on the third floor for a long time today."

No matter why the nurse wanted to find Tang Chu, it would not be a good thing.

Xie Ji: "We have to quickly find..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a hasty scream.

"what--!"

The two ran outside at the same time.

I saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old student running wildly in the corridor. He still held up a hanging bottle in his right hand when he was in a panic, but the needle attached to his left hand had already been "running the needle" while running, and the blood drops were falling. trickle down.

When the student saw Xie Ji and Jiang Jichu rushing out suddenly, he was so frightened that he slipped on the spot, then stepped on the right foot with his left foot and threw himself out, hitting the bottle on the ground and falling everywhere.

Behind him, nurses push carts back and forth.

She stared at him, her hoarse voice without any ups and downs.

"Got you……"

Chapter 114 Ten Strange Talks, Can You Talk About Your Work Now, Miss Nurse?

Seeing that the cart was about to pass over the student, Xie Ji bent down and grabbed one of the student's legs, pulling the student directly behind him.

He turned sideways and asked, "Tang Chu?"

The student leaned against the wall, his face was covered with snot and tears, and he didn't even care to wipe it off, his eyes were wide open: "You know me?"

"I don't know." After confirming the identity of the student, Xie Ji began to prepare to deal with the nurse.

But Jiang Jichu stood in front of him early on, and pulled out a fruit knife with his backhand.

A few minutes ago, the nurse who greeted Xie Jihe kindly grabbed the handrail of the cart. She didn’t know whether it was because of anger or something else. Noisy.

The nurse glanced across the badges on Xie Ji and Jiang Jichu's chests: "Teachers, please cooperate with me in my work."

Xie Ji: "What is your job?"

The nurse looked at Tang Chu again, trying to mobilize her muscles, trying to make herself look kind, but unfortunately her makeup and temperament restricted her performance, and Tang Chu was so frightened that she rubbed against the wall.

Nurse: "He is a patient and should rest well."

After finishing speaking, she leaned towards Tang Chu through the cart: "Aren't you sick? Come here, follow me back for treatment."

Don't say it's just a fever, Tang Chu feels that even if he has a broken leg, he can now participate in the [-]-meter obstacle course: "I'm not sick! I'm cured! I'm not sick!"

The nurse was still smirking: "You should obediently lie on the bed and draw water, come, let me re-insert the needle..."

Tang Chu shook his head frantically: "I'm not sick! I'm cured!"

Nurse: "Good boy, are you afraid of pain? Don't be afraid, how about the nurse's sister giving you a lullaby..."

Tang Chu: "Will you sleep forever?!"

Xie Ji interrupted the conversation between the nurse and Tang Chu: "I'm here to ask the student to understand the situation, and I hope you can cooperate with my work. As for his illness, there is a doctor on duty on the first floor, and I will take him to re-drain the water."

The nurse had more brains than the ghosts Xie Ji had seen before, and she understood on the spot that Xie Ji didn't mean to "cooperate with the work", but just wanted to talk.

But they are all school employees... She gave Tang Chu a hard look, and finally warned: "Please help the dean and the dean's assistant."

Since just now, Xie Ji has been standing in front of Tang Chu, without any room for negotiation.

His smile didn't reach his eyes: "What if I say 'no'."

The nurse finally couldn't bear it anymore, and pulled out a half-meter-long hatchet from the second floor of the cart.

The battle is about to break out!

Before she could step forward, Jiang Jichu kicked the other side of the cart, knocking the nurse one meter away.

The impact didn't knock the nurse over, she staggered a few steps, stabilized her body, and rushed towards Jiang Jichu with a low growl.

Jiang Jichu skillfully raised the fruit knife to block it, but the fruit knife in the dormitory was like a toy compared to the nurse's half-meter-long firewood knife. The moment the blades met, the fruit knife snapped.

A normal person would throw away the broken knife and dodge to the rear at such a time, but Jiang Jichu turned half of his body and stepped forward to the right. The nurse was maintaining the posture of cutting down with the vertical knife. Inertia left a deep bony scar on the nurse's right arm.

His movement was not over yet, when the nurse raised her head and roared in pain, he had already come behind the nurse, bent his knees and bumped into the nurse's waist, knocking the nurse out again!

The nurse didn't expect to encounter a stubble today, so she accidentally hit her back on the cart.

The cart immediately turned over, and the bottles and cans fell to the ground. Xie Ji took a look, and saw that there were fingers, eyeballs, half livers, and hairs of various colors.

Xie Ji: "Emotions are still a collection addiction."

Jiang Jichu turned his head speechlessly: "When is this?"

"what--!"

The hobbies of the collector nurse had a huge impact on Tang Chu, an ordinary high school student.

He was already in a state of high tension. Seeing formalin and human tissue all over the place, he almost collapsed on the spot.

Tang Chu's scream also greatly irritated the nurse. She got up from the ground, and inadvertently stepped on an eyeball that rolled to her feet, and the juice splashed in all directions.

Tang Chu screamed again: "Ah——!"

Xie Ji thought that he hadn't been wounded by the enemy, but he was first attacked by a wave of mental attacks from his own people.

He said to Jiang Jichu: "You protect Tang Chu."

Without hesitation, Jiang Jichu quickly walked to Tang Chu's side. With his back turned to Xie Ji, a few ghastly phosphorescences appeared in the depths of his eyes, and he threatened in a tone more terrifying than a nurse's: "If you call again, I will knock you unconscious."

Tang Chu was stunned by the phosphorescence, and didn't even dare to shake, but stretched out his hand to cover his mouth.

Seeing Jiang Jichu's actions from the reflection of the glass, Xie Ji smiled, but did not reveal it.

After a few breaths, the nurse had already adjusted her state, and she lifted her foot and kicked the cart that was overturned on the ground.

The three-story cart made of pure steel was kicked into the air by her, and smashed towards Xie Ji with the wind.

Xie Ji jumped, stepped on the handrail of the cart in mid-air, and jumped towards the nurse with his strength.

The nurse took the opportunity to point the knife at Xie Ji's face, and the blade with a cold light was getting closer and closer to Xie Ji, but he only turned slightly, raised his hand to press the nurse's upper arm, and at the same time, his elbow slammed against the nurse's arm. As soon as it was pressed, the hatchet fell out of the nurse's hand.

Xie Ji caught the machete with his other hand, he took half a step back, and cut off the nurse's arm without hesitation.

Blood gushed out from the wound and sprayed from the edge of Xie Ji's hair, dyeing the plain white wall behind him bright red.

But it's not over yet.

Xie Ji casually threw the broken arm aside, held down the nurse and threw it against the newly stained red wall, and pressed the knife against the nurse's neck.

He smiled and said, "Can we talk about your work now, Miss Nurse?"

Even when the hatchet was pressed against the most vulnerable place, the nurse showed no sign of fear. Her pupils suddenly shrank, and she wanted to hit Xie Ji with her head regardless.

Xie Ji didn't intend to get rid of the nurse so quickly, otherwise he would have used his gun specially designed to suppress evil spirits to burst. He wanted to move the hatchet away, but the nurse moved very quickly, and her neck took the initiative to meet the blade.

The moment the flesh and the blade collided, Xie Ji didn't feel any resistance.

The nurse's neck was easily cut open with a hatchet like a piece of paper, and she opened her mouth to bite Xie Ji's throat.

Xie Ji slapped the nurse's head away from the body, and the head jumped twice on the ground like a ball, with a sense of rhythm.

But Xie Ji didn't have time to worry about whether a head danced rhythmically, the nurse's headless body could still move, and the other intact arm had already grabbed his wrist holding the knife.

He switched hands with the knife and chopped off the nurse's other arm to the ground.

A good nurse was chopped into four by him, without head or arms, and they all fell to the ground motionless.

Xie Ji couldn't help but glanced back at Tang Chu. Both he and Jiang Jichu knew that the nurse was not a human, but a ghost, but Tang Chu was still a simple high school student, so don't leave a psychological shadow on the flowers of the motherland.

And his worry was obviously superfluous, Jiang Jichu held down Tang Chu's head when he chopped off the nurse's first arm.

Of course, Jiang Jichu would not use such a tender way of holding someone in his arms to block his sight.

Jiang Jichu directly pressed Tang Chu's head against the wall in a grappling posture, forcing Tang Chu to look at the uncontaminated half of the corridor, while he focused on his direction.

Seeing him look, he still blinked his eyes to indicate that he was there.

How should I put it, Jiang Jichu is still kind in his bones, but his method is not very friendly...

The two stared at each other only in a blink of an eye, Xie Ji quickly looked away.

The nurse's limbs and head are separated and they can move independently. He will never lose his fighting power just because he cut off two arms.

Sure enough, the next moment, whether it was the nurse who was divided into four parts, or the human tissue that fell out of the cart, they moved together, and attacked Xie Ji from all directions.

Two severed arms, a torso without head and arms, a head with glaring eyes, fingers, hair, and even half a liver all wanted to drill into his mouth.

Xie Ji cursed secretly, knowing that the nurse would not be able to stay, so he had to draw a gun and shoot a shot at the moment in the middle of the messy human tissue.

"boom--"

The speed of his shooting was already extremely fast, and the speed of the bullet at close range was even more difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, but even so, all the human body tissues dissipated into the air together one second before the bullet hit the head.

Just like the water ghost they met in the morning, apart from the formalin on the ground, there was not even blood spattered on the wall.

Jiang Jichu let go of Tang Chu, and walked quickly to Xie Ji's side: "Disappeared?"

Xie Ji frowned slightly: "Yes, I didn't hit the bullet at all."

Jiang Jichu pointed behind him: "Tang Chu is still there."

Xie sent a "huh".

Hopefully the high school student they labored so hard to save provides some value.

Even though Jiang Jichu was no longer pressing Tang Chu, the latter still kept most of his face against the wall, and his body trembled intermittently.

Xie Ji patted Tang Chu on the shoulder, and Tang Chu trembled greatly, but he dared not say a word.

Xie Ji said helplessly: "Look at you scaring the students."

Jiang Jichu resolutely threw the blame away: "It was the nurse who was scared."

Xie Ji straightened Tang Chu's body and comforted him: "It's okay, don't be afraid."

Tang Chu opened one eye tentatively, and found that it was a handsome young man with a smile on his face.

For some reason, after seeing the man, the fear in his heart was calmed down for no reason.

Tang Chu looked behind the man again, only the overturned cart and bottles and cans, and the nurse had disappeared.

He asked in a low voice, "It was you...you who saved me?"

Xie Ji guided: "Why use the word 'rescue'? Will the nurse treat you badly?"

Tang Chu's facial features were distorted: "That's a bloodthirsty nurse..."

"What the hell?" The name Bloodthirsty Nurse is too secondary, Xie Ji thought he had heard it wrong.

Tang Chu said affirmatively, "Bloodthirsty nurse! The bloodthirsty nurse of Mingsheng High School's Top Ten Campus Strange Talk!"

Top ten strange stories on campus.

Xie Ji's heart moved. This time, the multi-plot level is a single scene, and all the bosses are concentrated in one space. The format of the ten strange stories is very suitable.

But the ten strange stories...

Isn't there ten bosses? !
