Chapter 12 24 Hours of Danger

Will's Ward.

Hannibal pushed the door open...... I saw that Will was still lying on the bed, looking no different from usual, but the indicators of the monitor on the wall were declining.

Hannibal, as a doctor, naturally immediately sensed โ€”โ€”โ€” Will, or he was going to die.

No, it's not a near-death due to illness and trauma, but organ failure simply due to age, and no one will be surprised that an eighty-year-old man will have such a day.

Hannibal went up and felt his pulse slightly, then looked at his pupils to make sure Will was in a coma.

...... At this point, he began to hesitate to tell the dean about it.

Because before, it had been clearly written in the contract that as long as Will was dying, the dean must be notified, but after thinking about it, this dean was not a good person at all, but a big devil who killed the most people in history. If Hannibal had any opponents, it would be this guy nine times out of ten. And following the content of a contract offered by an opponent is not good for yourself. Besides, Nova also wrote on a small note, don't trust anyone.

So..... Hannibal pondered for a moment...... Then he rang the call for help.

Wellโ€”โ€”โ€” yes, Hannibal finally informed the dean, because in his contact with other people in the past few days, he seemed to find that everyone was strictly abiding by what was said in the 'contract', which made Hannibal vaguely feel that the contract would be part of the rules of the game that had ended.

There is another point that Hannibal had to inform the dean, and that is...... He felt that Will's near-death would bring an irreparable loss to the dean and even everyone, and it could even be said to be a disaster, otherwise he couldn't care so much about Will. And Hannibal himself, in fact, is the same as everyone in this hospital! They are all murderers, all confused by some kind of amnesia mechanism, and they are all looking for a way to break through. In other words, he and others are grasshoppers tied to a rope, so what others are worried about, they should also worry about.

......

......

Without further ado, a few minutes after ringing the ambulance bell, the dean hurried over. He was joined by a few other people. Doctors, nurses, staff, people of all identities, Hannibal noticed that the people here were similar to the people he ate in the cafeteria on his first day.

And all the people, after seeing Will's state, showed a look of anxiety or fear on their faces, which is still a good psychological quality, and a few people even began to hold back, hysterically pulling their hair, and even worse, began to run out like crazy!

Hannibal's brows were furrowed, everyone present was a murderous demon, and in their respective eras, life imprisonment, torture, execution, and other punishments were almost all experienced on them, that is to say, the state of mind of these people is definitely much stronger than normal people. However, why did these people react so much after learning that Will was going to die, and it could even be said that it was a kind of despair that was more painful than death.

When I am in doubt......

"Ahhhhhโ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”h

There was a whistling, just outside the window, Hannibal reflexively raised his head, only to see a figure flash through the window, and then there was a 'bang'......

"Again...... Another jumper? โ€

Before he could recover his senses...... Ahh!!h

Another man fell, and the moment the figure of the man crossed the window, Hannibal noticed the tall figure, yes, it was Edmund, who had just run out of the hospital room hysterically. Two seconds later, with that muffled sound, he must have fallen to his death on the spot.

So, did these people get some stimulus when they learned that Will was going to die, and they started running to the top of the building and ended their own lives?

This is ridiculous!

What made Hannibal even more puzzled was that the entire ward began to be in danger, and they leaned against the wall like lost souls, muttering to themselves: "It's over, it's all over!" โ€

There was even a person who suddenly took out a knife from his pocket and handed it to a person next to him in a panic: "Come!" Kill me! Please, kill me quickly! โ€

Of course, the other person flicked his arm, threw the knife far away, and yelled at the other party viciously: "Fuck off, don't even think about it!" โ€

......

At this time, the dean finally showed the bearing that a murderous criminal should have, he suppressed the despair in his heart and stood up!

"Well, isn't he dead yet!" The dean roared: "Who will come and see how long he can hold on!" โ€

He shouted with great momentum, but ...... The desperation in the crowd did not dissipate in the slightest.

Hannibal hesitated...... Then he walked over to Will and examined it carefully for a while: "He can last up to 24 hours!" โ€

"Is there any way to extend his life a little, even if it is a day, no, half a day, or even a few hours!" The dean said urgently.

Hannibal shook his head: "There is no way, his physique is already on the verge of death, and any rescue measures against him may end his life early." โ€

The dean's lips pursed tightly...... Then, he turned and yelled at the crowd behind him.

"Get out of here, didn't you hear? He still has 24 hours, it's not a dead end, we still have a way! โ€

This shout seemed to have finally given others a little hope, and in their desperate eyes, there seemed to be a kind of ruthlessness like a broken boat, and then they all walked out of the ward one after another.

At this moment, there were finally only two people left in the ward, Hannibal and the dean. And, of course, Will who was lying down.

Hannibal looked at Dean Yu quietly...... It seems that something is waiting for you.

Eventually, the dean bowed his head.

"Are you waiting for me to give you an answer?"

Hanny smiled slightly: "Yes, although I have deduced some myself, but ...... I'd rather hear the full rules of the game from someone else's mouth. โ€

"Heh, in less than two days, can you already speculate? Over the years, your time has really become shorter and shorter, and if it weren't for Will getting into the near-death stage first, maybe you could really outperform everyone else and finally get out. โ€

The dean smiled bitterly: "Okay, anyway, everything is going to end, and there is nothing that can't be beaten to tell you now." So, come with me......"

With that, the dean walked out of the ward.

And Hannibal, naturally, followed.
