Chapter 63 The Seventh Door

The time to enter the door advances day by day, and Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu have almost done the preparations.

This is the first time that Lin Qiushi entered the door with the people on the website. Ruan Nanzhu told him that online work is risky, so after entering the door, you must hide your real identity. If you are discovered, it will be very troublesome. ——For this statement, Lin Qiushi strongly suspects that it is his excuse for letting himself wear women's clothes.

But when Ruan Nanzhu accompanied him to change into women's clothes, the unbalanced feeling in Lin Qiushi's heart finally got better.

Cheng Qianli seemed to know what Lin Qiushi was thinking, and told him to keep his original intentions and not be corrupted by Ruan Nanzhu's terrible thoughts.

Lin Qiushi glanced at him and said nothing.

Cheng Qianli: "Why did you ignore me..."

Lin Qiushi is typing on the phone: I am integrating into the role of a dumb girl.

Cheng Qianli: "..." Lin Qiushi, you are afraid that you are finished.

Sometimes the ability to adapt too well turns out to be a bad thing.

Finally, after wearing a skirt in the villa for a few days, Lin Qiushi ushered in the day he entered the door. He was sitting at the dining table eating that day, and suddenly there was a mysterious feeling that he was very familiar with. Lin Qiushi put down the chopsticks in his hand, turned around and pushed open a door in the house at will. Unsurprisingly, he saw the scenery outside the door, which turned into twelve iron doors.

Five of the iron doors had seals on them, and the other six iron doors could not be opened. The only one that could be opened was the door of the door owner.

Lin Qiushi took a deep breath, grabbed the door handle, and pulled it gently.

The door opened in response, and the scene in front of Lin Qiushi was reversed, and the surrounding scenery became a long corridor. This seems to be a staircase in the basement. The air smells of mildew. The staircase is very long and seems to have no end. Lin Qiushi walked up slowly, and after turning several corners, he saw a few people standing in the hall waiting.

While taking off the bracelet on his wrist, he observed the surroundings and determined where he was, which was the nursing home in the clue. Although it is a nursing home, it has a unique smell of disinfectant in hospitals. Discarded hospital beds can be seen everywhere. When Lin Qiushi passed a hospital bed, he even saw dried brown blood stains on it.

At this time, there were eight people in the crowd, including nine people in total. Some people turned their eyes away when they saw him, and some people started to look at him with interest. The depths of those eyes had other meanings. , Lin Qiushi's expression did not change, as if he did not see it.

Someone walked up to him and extended his hand to him with a smile: "Hello, my name is Jiang Yingrui, can I meet you?"

Lin Qiushi typed on his mobile phone: Sorry, I can't speak, my name is Lin Qiuqiu.

Jiang Yingrui said, "Oh, sorry, how many times did you enter the door?"

Lin Qiushi: The sixth time.

Jiang Yingrui seemed to be very interested in Lin Qiushi. Even Lin Qiushi's indifferent attitude did not drive him away. In the end, Lin Qiushi had to say bluntly: I'm sorry, I want to be alone for a while.

Jiang Yingrui smiled when he saw the words: "Okay."

He didn't bother, he turned and walked away. It seemed that he wanted to find Lin Qiushi to form a team, but Lin Qiushi obviously rejected his invitation.

The hall where they were located was on the first floor of the sanatorium. Outside was a courtyard overgrown with grass, and above it was the ward of the sanatorium.

There are six floors in the sanatorium, and the functional divisions are very clear, but it seems that the mental state of the people here is not very good, at least Lin Qiushi saw a lot of messy graffiti on the walls.

Just as Lin Qiushi was observing the surroundings, his shoulder was gently touched, Lin Qiushi turned his head and saw an unfamiliar face.

Although the face was unfamiliar, the clothes he was wearing were very familiar. He said, "Hello, my name is Ruan Baijie."

Lin Qiushi understood: Hello, my name is Lin Qiuqiu.

Ruan Nanzhu smiled: "Nice to meet you."

This time, Ruan Nanzhu's appearance is still beautiful, with long black hair and a long white dress. Although he is much taller than ordinary girls, his unique temperament is very eye-catching. He smiled slightly, even if Lin Qiushi knew He's a man, and his heart is still moving.

Ruan Nanzhu put his hand on his shoulder: "Let's form a team?"

Lin Qiushi nodded.

The eyes of others also fell on the two of them, and Lin Qiushi clearly felt that there were some malicious eyes in them.

Although he had never encountered such a thing, the inside of the door was a place outside the law, and he did not need to be responsible for anything inside. Coupled with the threat of death, people often do some more extreme things - these are all things that Ruan Nanzhu gave to Lin Qiushi.

Lin Qiushi felt deeply after hearing it, and said that the two of us are in danger.

Ruan Nanzhu said, "You think too much."

Lin Qiushi was still thinking about what he thought too much, but today he finally understood the meaning of this sentence.

Because someone with short eyes walked in front of them and started to harass them with obscene words. Lin Qiushi will not repeat the specific words. After the man said these words, Ruan Nanzhu showed a somewhat angry expression.

The man was even more excited when he saw this. He stretched out his hand and wanted to grab Lin Qiushi's hair. Lin Qiushi was trying to "softly" beat the man when he saw Ruan Nanzhu directly grab the man's arm-then Twist hard.

Lin Qiushi heard the crunch of broken bones and the howling like a pig.

Everyone's eyes changed from ambiguous to panic. Ruan Nanzhu still didn't forget to shout at Lin Qiushi, and said with a pitiful expression: "Qiuqiu, Qiuqiu, he is so scary."

Lin Qiushi: "..." The scary one is obviously you.

No one dared to come and talk to them now, and everyone had a tacit understanding to stay away from the two of them, making Lin Qiushi wonder whether to laugh or cry.

At this moment, Lin Qiushi saw their target. A teenager in a black T-shirt, jeans, and a black cap. This young man looked seventeen or eighteen years old and looked very handsome. He just walked in from the outside yard and his eyes fell on the two of them.

He hesitated for a moment and walked towards Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu.

"Hello, my name is Feng Yongle." The teenager introduced himself, the same pseudonym he told them on the website: "Can I form a team with you?"

Hearing this, everyone else cast sympathetic glances at the young man, and seemed to think that his hand would also be twisted directly.

Who knew Ruan Nanzhu smiled sweetly: "Yes."

Feng Yongle breathed a sigh of relief, but noticed that other people's eyes were not right, he was a little strange: "What happened?"

Ruan Nanzhu pointed to the man in the corner who was in pain and was about to faint, and said, "This man harassed us just now and was driven away by me."

Feng Yongle glanced at the man, then at Ruan Nanzhu, and was silent for a moment, as if thinking about how Ruan Nanzhu and Lin Qiushi used this delicate body to beat the man away. Lin Qiushi actually guessed what he was thinking from his eyes... But he couldn't explain it, he could only pretend like Ruan Nanzhu. I don't know what happened, I'm just an innocent kitten. Appearance - Lin Qiushi feels that he is also very skilled.

Fortunately, Feng Yongle didn't get into it.

People came to Qi one after another, about the same number as the sixth door that Lin Qiushi entered last time. There were still fourteen people, but this time there was only one newcomer, and now he was shrinking in the corner and shivering at the scene around him. .

Not long after the crowd arrived, a woman in a nurse's uniform appeared in front of everyone. Her face looked very bad, the exposed neck was covered with cyan blood, and she looked at everyone indifferently: "Please follow me to the fourth floor."

Everyone followed her footsteps and reached the fourth floor.

"Your treatment will start in seven days." The nurse's tone was cold. "In these seven days, I hope you get used to the facilities in the nursing home." She said this, with a weird smile on the corner of her mouth, "You will like it. here."

After that, she told everyone some rules, such as only eating in the cafeteria, not eating outside food, and not leaving the room after eight o'clock every night. After saying this, the nurse turned around and left, leaving them an indifferent back.

"Damn it, it's terrifying." A girl couldn't stop muttering, "Is this person a human or a ghost..."

No one answered her question.

There are a total of eight accommodation places, each with two bunk beds, that is, four people can live in one room. Of course, if you are not willing, you can also use it as a double room.

Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu naturally lived with Feng Yongle just now. During the period, a girl named Xue Zhiyun wanted to live with them, but Ruan Nanzhu refused.

Of course, the reason for the refusal was very bitchy. Ruan Nanzhu said, "Oh, I'm not used to living with too many people~"

Xue Zhiyun said, "There are already three of them, so can't you join me for one?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "No way, sister Lin and I hit it off and we must live together."

Xue Zhiyun said, "What about him?" She pointed to Feng Yongle.

Ruan Nanzhu said shamelessly: "What kind of person is a child?"

Xue Zhiyun walked away with a dark face, Feng Yongle's face was not good-looking, Lin Qiushi actually understood the mood of the two at this moment, God damn it, what kind of person is a mother child, it's really a bitch to report it.

But the final result was that Ruan Nanzhu successfully refused the fourth party to intervene and kept their triple room.

The living environment here can be said to be quite bad. The worst thing is that Feng Yongle found a few pieces of complete nails that fell from people in his bed.

Feng Yongle shook off the quilt and said, "Are we going to stay here for seven days?"

Ruan Nanzhu said: "Almost."

Feng Yongle: "Oh, I hope I can make it through."

Ruan Nanzhu said: "Ao? I don't think it's Ao." He stood by the window and said this while looking outside.

"What do you mean?" Feng Yongle asked.

Ruan Nanzhu: "You didn't read the information?"

Feng Yongle: "Look."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Do you remember how the patients in the nursing home left here?"

Feng Yongle said, "You mean that tunnel..."

Ruan Nanzhu said, "Let's see the situation first."

The two of them were talking, while Lin Qiushi was studying his wall. There were many strange scratches on his wall, like they were picked out by fingernails. It can be imagined that the person who was sleeping on his bed at that time was probably not in a good state of mind. wonderful.

"It's time, go downstairs for lunch first." Ruan Nanzhu said, "You still have to listen to what the Npc stipulates."

The three turned around and went downstairs to the restaurant on the second floor that the nurse said. The meal was already open here, and there were patients wearing hospital gowns everywhere.

To be honest, it was the first time that Lin Qiushi saw such a crowd of people inside the door. It stands to reason that places with a lot of people will always be less afraid, but in fact, after seeing the mental state of these people, Lin Qiushi felt a chill on his back.

The patients in the restaurant were obviously in an abnormal state. Some of them looked numb, some lowered their heads and whispered to themselves, and some stared at the floor motionless. All in all, this sanatorium did not look like a sanatorium at all. large mental hospital.

"Eat early and go." Ruan Nanzhu said, "After all, something like mental state can be contagious."

It is true that if you stay with abnormal people for a long time, you will become abnormal too.

When they were eating, several other teams came over, including Jiang Yingrui who tried to form a team with Lin Qiushi. He seemed to be very interested in Lin Qiushi, and smiled at Lin Qiushi from a distance.

Lin Qiushi pretended not to see it.

After the three of them finished eating, they planned to stroll around the sanatorium. They went to the treatment room on the top floor first. This is not a hospital after all, and the means of treatment are limited, but almost every room is filled with beds, and some of the beds are still lying with dying patients.

Feng Yongle said: "I don't know how many people died here."

Ruan Nanzhu: "People must have died a lot."

Lin Qiushi continued to walk forward and noticed that there were a lot of graffiti on the wall. The graffiti was blurry, but he could also identify some words like help and death.

"Hey? Someone is eating here." Feng Yongle suddenly found something in front of a ward.

Lin Qiushi leaned over and looked into the ward from the window, and found that a patient was eating noodles with a fork. He was eating very slowly, and he had to chew for a long time.

"Didn't you say you can't eat outside?" Feng Yongle muttered, but he brought food in.

Ruan Nanzhu glanced at him: "You can try it."

Feng Yongle said: "Forget it."

The three watched for a while, and when they saw nothing unusual, they decided to leave, but just after walking a few steps, Lin Qiushi heard a strange sound, it was a slight pop, as if something had been punctured. He stopped in his footsteps and looked towards the room he just looked at, but this sight made his breathing stop for a moment.

I saw that the fork used to fork the noodles just now was inserted into the eyes of the person eating the noodles. Only one handle of the fork was left exposed, and the man's eyes were bleeding, but he didn't let out a scream. It stands to reason that with such a deep wound, the person must have died, but he slowly pulled out the fork and started eating noodles again.

Lin Qiushi: "..." He silently pulled Ruan Nanzhu's sleeve.

Ruan Nanzhu turned his head and saw this scene.

Feng Yongle's reaction was the most violent of them all, swearing swearing and rubbing his arms: "Damn, this is okay too?"

Lin Qiushi didn't know if it would work or not. Anyway, the man in the room was fine. He ate his own blood as ketchup and noodles, and ate it with relish.

He even seemed to notice the person looking at him at the door, and smiled in this direction.

This scene is really creepy.

The three of them tacitly did not speak, turned around and left. And after returning to the residence at the end of the day, Feng Yongle silently threw all his snacks into the trash can, and never mentioned extra meals again.

After walking around this floor for a while, the sky darkened.

They returned to their residence before dark, but before entering the door, Lin Qiushi noticed something, he patted Ruan Nanzhu, took out his mobile phone and typed: Don't we live on the fourth floor?

Ruan Nanzhu: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Lin Qiushi: "...But why is this person's house number 502?"

Ruan Nanzhu looked up and found that the house number of a room near the stairs actually changed to 502, while the other rooms were still 4xx. He said, "502, do you remember how it was written in the information?"

Of course Lin Qiushi remembered.

Room 502 is a very special room in a nursing home.

Because a head nurse and a nurse died in it, it is said that the head nurse chose to commit suicide by jumping from the building in 502 after being pregnant with the doctor's child and failing to have an abortion. After that, 502 began to be haunted.

Legend has it that the cries of babies and the wails of women can be heard every night, and after a nurse committed suicide in 502, the room was sealed and no longer used.

So, here, 502 is a very special number.

When the room was allocated this afternoon, Lin Qiushi was still glad that they lived on the fourth floor. Unexpectedly, after going out for a walk, the house number was changed.

To be honest, most people don't pay too much attention to the house number when entering and leaving the house. Lin Qiushi remembered that this room was for a man and a woman. He glanced at Ruan Nanzhu and asked for his opinion.

"Let me tell them." Ruan Nanzhu said.

The sudden appearance of 502 should be a very obvious death condition, so it's okay to warn the people in the team.

So Ruan Nanzhu knocked on the door in front of him.

"Is something wrong?" It was a girl in the team who lived here who opened the door. She saw the vigilant expressions on the faces of the people outside.

"There seems to be something wrong with your room number." Ruan Nanzhu said straight to the point.

The girl put her head out, and she saw the changed numbers on it, her face changed greatly: "When did—"

"I don't know." Ruan Nanzhu, "We saw it when we came back, do you want to change your room?" The rooms here are quite plentiful - and will become more and more abundant, because there will be fewer and fewer people.

"Okay." The girl received Ruan Nanzhu's kindness and nodded gratefully, "Thank you for your reminder."

"Hands up." Ruan Nanzhu said.

After they finished the notification, they returned to their own room.

It was getting dark now, and there was still half an hour before the eight o'clock set by the nurse.

After Lin Qiushi finished washing, he sat on the bed and started playing Lianliankan. Ruan Nanzhu was sitting on his upper bunk, thinking about something.

Feng Yongle may feel that the atmosphere is a little awkward, so he found a topic: "I didn't expect you to be two girls."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Otherwise?"

Feng Yongle: "I thought you were a boy."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Who said women are inferior to men?"

Lin Qiushi leaned against the head of the bed and thought quietly, who would have thought that the feminist in front of him was such a cute girl...

Eight o'clock was about to arrive, but Lin Qiushi heard the sound of chasing and running from the corridor outside. The sound was crisp and had a bit of panic. Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu looked at each other, and Ruan Nanzhu said: "I go."

Lin Qiushi got up before Ruan Nanzhu. He walked to the door and opened it carefully, wanting to see who was running outside.

After opening the door, Lin Qiushi only saw an empty corridor. He was about to close the door with a little tightness in his heart, but he felt that something was stuck in the door.

Lin Qiushi lowered his head and saw that a red high-heeled shoe appeared at his door at some point, standing abruptly on the edge of the door frame.

Lin Qiushi: "..."

Ruan Nanzhu walked to Lin Qiushi and saw the shoes. He looked around, instead of taking it with his hands, he turned back to the house, took out a dirty toilet stopper from the toilet, and knocked the high heels out with a stick.

Lin Qiushi was shocked by Ruan Nanzhu's actions.

Also shocked was Feng Yongle. He was dumbfounded when he saw Ruan Nanzhu just stuffed the toilet and went to the toilet to wash his hands with a calm expression.

When I came back and found that the two were still staring at me, Ruan Nanzhu was a little strange: "What are you looking at me for?"

Lin Qiushi took out his phone and typed: Because you look good.

Ruan Nanzhu smiled and kissed Lin Qiushi: "Qiuqiu is still cute, come on, sister, give me a kiss."

Lin Qiushi was a little embarrassed: men and women don't get along.

Ruan Nanzhu looked very strange after reading Lin Qiushi's words. He always knew that every time he wore women's clothes, Lin Qiushi would be a little confused about the situation...

After Lin Qiushi finished typing, he regretted it. He suddenly remembered that the lovely girl Bai Jie in front of him was not a girl, but a very cruel man.

Lin Qiushi: "..." Alas, eyes are so deceiving.

There was another sound of high heels outside, this time Lin Qiushi didn't open the door, although the sound seemed to surround their room.

The sky was completely dark, and the entire nursing home was shrouded in darkness.

Everything was silent, and because of this, the running sound became particularly harsh. With the sound of high heels hitting the ground, Lin Qiushi's keen hearing also caught the faint sobbing of the child. Although the sound was very small, Ruan Nanzhu and Feng Yongle should not have heard it.

So Lin Qiushi huddled on the bed and pretended that he didn't hear anything.

"Go to sleep." Ruan Nanzhu in the upper bunk said good night to him, "If you can't sleep, you are welcome to come to me."

Lin Qiushi didn't say a word. Typing was too much trouble at the moment, and he didn't bother to communicate with Ruan Nanzhu.

Soon, the sound of Ruan Nanzhu's breathing became stable. Based on Lin Qiushi's understanding of him, he knew that he must have fallen asleep.

Lin Qiushi glanced at Feng Yongle next to him, and saw that he was still staring at the ceiling in a daze, inexplicably felt a little comfort - at least he was not the only one who couldn't sleep.

Feng Yongle also seemed to notice Lin Qiushi's gaze, he turned his head and smiled at Lin Qiushi, and whispered, "Can't you fall asleep?"

Lin Qiushi nodded.

Feng Yongle looked at Lin Qiushi, his eyes were filled with an indescribable tenderness, and Lin Qiushi was frightened and quickly closed his eyes. He always felt that Feng Yongle would say terrible things if he didn't close up and pretend to sleep.

The author has something to say:

Ruan Nanzhu: You can tell by the look in my eyes that I have feelings for you.

Lin Qiushi: checked eyes, but it wasn't a person met...

Ruan Nanzhu: ? ? ? ?
