At this moment, Ran, as a chess player, is boringly scrolling through the player forums in the confinement room to see what the players are doing at the moment.

Undoubtedly, the most important theme in the game now is the main quest thrown by Rann, and many players have begun to search for Arkham on a large scale, but unfortunately, after the initial wave of benefits, the efficiency of players to find the circle node is declining significantly.

Many players have been looking for a long time and have not found anything, so they can't help but post on the forum to complain.

This is a clear sign that the Outlanders have begun to place nodes in more secluded places.

In Rann's plan, the conspiracy to destroy the strangers is roughly divided into several steps, one of which is to destroy the magic circles they have arranged throughout the city, although I can't remember what these magic circles are used for, but what the enemy has prepared, it must be what they want to destroy.

The second is the hospital, Rann remembers what happened in the hospital more clearly, and in his previous life, it was also the druid who entered the night hospital and discovered the hidden conspiracy here, but it fell short at the last minute.

As we all know, if you want to do something in the gram world, it will be related to celestial phenomena, special astrological phenomena, such as lunar eclipses, solar eclipses, starless moonless nights and other weather.

Rann had checked the weather forecast before, and there was a special lunar eclipse recently, and it was just three days later.

The timing also coincided, and as expected, three days later, it was the moment when Arkham's fate was decided.

But Ran, who was originally a little anxious, calmed down.

At least he's done what he can and has had some results.

Although the current state is very depressing, thinking about this means of being able to teleport directly from the psychotherapy room to here, even if you escape from Arkham, there is no guarantee that you will be able to escape.

Rann depressedly dispelled the last fluke and forced himself to face the reality, okay, now he has to think about how to break the game.

First of all, his biggest advantage now is intelligence and information, thanks to Carmen's memory potion, he is now not helpless against this mysterious hospital, at least he knows the information that the druid explored in the first place.

So what he should do now is actually very simple.

Find a way to contact the druid and reveal this information to him.

Each piece of information that took a lot of time for players to explore represents their most valuable time.

Gotta find a way to get it to the druids.

Rann lowered his eyes and pondered what to do, he was now trapped in this ward, unable to move, and the only way to get the word on was to buy someone else.

Who buys it out?

Rann waited patiently for the opportunity, there were usually nurses on duty on the third floor, and it didn't take long for the nurse on duty to come.

Moreover, it is still an acquaintance who came.

Rann was startled when he saw the huge figure appear at the end of the hallway.

It's Anita.

After a long time, she was still strong, and even looked even fatter, her skin was stretched so that she could almost see blood vessels and fat, and she seemed to tremble in the corridor when she walked.

Isn't she a nurse in the inpatient building? Why is it here?

Anita walked to the third floor with heavy steps, pushed a cart loaded with medicine and food, and began to enter the patient rooms on the third floor one by one.

Rann's doubts were quickly answered, and as soon as the door of the first ward on the third floor opened, blood-colored tentacles stretched out from inside, wrapping around Anita's arm like vines, and Anita shook her hand and stepped on the tentacle to the ground, scolding loudly, pulling out a hammer from the cart and smashing it at the tentacles.

The hammer swung a few times, smashing the tentacles to pieces, and the existence in the ward suddenly became much more honest, and Anita scolded and took out a large portion of lasagna and medicine from the cart, and threw it directly into the ward without going in.

Seeing this scene with his own eyes, Rann felt that if he was a player now, he should immediately and quickly pass a sanity evaluation.

Anita continued to push the cart to the next ward, each ward opened, as if some seal or hell gate had been opened, Rann even saw a monster that looked a bit like the 'Shugoth' in the family, but no matter how noisy the 'patient' inside was, it was Roshan Butcher**, which also opened Ran's eyes. *

What kind of monsters are locked up on the same floor with him, qwq! Why is he here?! He shouldn't be here!

Rann doubts his life, and Anita's cart dwindles in food and medicine, and finally makes her way to the innermost ward.

"Mr. Rann."

Anita pushed the cart to the door of the ward, and her terrifying face suddenly squeezed out an obsessive smile.

Rann took a soft breath, he knew his chance had come.

He opened his eyes, pretended to see Anita, smiled and said, "It's Anita, it's been a long time." ”

Rann was still wearing the restraint robe, his back straight, his wide sleeves wrapped around his slender wrists, and golden chains snaked out of it, clearly a prisoner, but elegant and calm like a king.

"Well, long time no see, Mr. Lanne."

"How did you end up here? Anita, I think your desk was on the other side of the inpatient building. ”

"Because of the lack of manpower here, many people have recently resigned, so I have been temporarily transferred here to patrol." Anita has all the questions.

"Really," Rann raised an eyebrow, feigned surprise, "why have so many people quit lately?" ”

"Because the new dean is a greedy fool!" Anita blurted out subconsciously, but soon realized that she was speaking inappropriately, and looked around nervously, as if to see if any doctor or other staff member heard.

"The new dean......" Rann subconsciously remembered the white-haired Sauron, the man who targeted him, but soon realized that Anita was referring to the real dean who had been replaced by Sauron.

Rann knew the information of this copy, to put it simply, the druid in his previous life entered the night hospital to investigate, but found that there was a strange patient in the mental hospital who had been claiming to be the director of Arkham Hospital, and later through various indications, he was indeed the director of Arkham Hospital, and the current fake director was pretended to be the leader of a cult organization, with the purpose of using the hospital to open the 'gates of hell'.

Of course, now they all know that this gate of hell is the gate to the world of dreams.

In the process, the druid was helped by a mysterious investigator who had been lurking in the hospital, and finally learned about the mysterious religious organization of the Outlanders, and tried his best to find evidence to remove the fake dean.

But when he found the evidence, he found that even if they proved that the current dean was a fake, there was no way to overturn him.

Because everyone in the hospital does not recognize the original director.

It's because ......

Rann felt some kind of flash of inspiration: "He's been taking advantage of the convenience of the medical system to quietly seek some gray benefits, and use the doctor's handle to force them to shut up, right?"

Anita's mouth opened wide in shock and stumbled, "Y-How do you know!?"

Of course, because he is holding the script, well, this point naturally cannot be said.

Rann smiled slightly, his eyes fixed on Anita, "Because I've been paying attention to you."

"Is this true?" Anita muttered, eager joy in her eyes.

"Of course, I am very grateful for the care you took of me when I was hospitalized, and even after I was discharged from the hospital, I never forgot this place for a moment......"

Well, he has not forgotten for a moment the shadow that this hospital has brought to him.

Rann knew the advantages of his appearance and voice, and he was never stingy to use them, he adjusted his tone: "Anita ......"

Anita trembled, and the roots of her ears were stained pink.

"Can you do me a favor?"

"No problem!" The blonde nurse replied almost without thinking.

A smile flashed in Ran's eyes, and he continued, "I need you to help me connect with someone, help me hand him a note, you should have seen a face like this."

He thought it should be fine, but the blonde nurse lowered her head and trembled.

"Are you going to leave us again?"

Well?

"Are you going to hook up with that rat and get out of here again?" The blonde nurse raised her head, a hideous cold light flashing in her small eyes, "Sure enough, what he said is not wrong, it is better to lock you up, no, you still have to stuff it into your stomach, that's right, only by stuffing it into your stomach can you ensure that it is me alone." ”

After that, she actually opened the door, hell, the door of the psychiatric treatment area is different from the inpatient building, and the nurse can open it at will!

Roshan Butcher's huge body squeezed into the confinement room, Ran's pupils shrank slightly, and at this moment, the tip of his nose seemed to have smelled a strong smell of death, and he uncontrollably remembered the scene when he was still in the hospital, witnessing the patient next door being taken out and eaten.

He was breathing a little heavier, and he was tied to the bed unable to move, and the blonde nurse approached, grinning like a crocodile's mouth.

Something has to be done!

Rann closed his eyes fiercely, and then raised them again, his eyes were indifferent: "Are you sure?"

"Are you going to disobey the dean's orders?"

Anita stopped, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes.

Seeing this, Rann breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he guessed correctly.

If that Sauron Hogg wants to kill him, under the premise that he is in this hospital and his abilities are sealed, he doesn't have to bother so much, the only explanation is that he is still useful to Hogg, at least not for now.

This is also the confidence that he dared to take risks just now, after all, from the current point of view, the director's authority in this hospital should be the greatest.

However, what Rann didn't expect was that Anita only hesitated for a moment, and her expression became vicious: "Now that the dean is not here, he can't come back in time, if I can monopolize you and let you no longer leave here, then it will be worth my punishment!"

With that, Anita stepped forward and grabbed Rann with her big fan-like hands, her mouth wide open enough to swallow Rann whole, her small eyes staring at him.

Rann originally subconsciously wanted to hide, but when he saw Anita's eyes, he was stunned.

Unlike her menacing appearance, Anita's eyes were filled with trepidation and unease.

In a flash of light, Rann made a bet.

Because he saw the figure of a thin blonde girl, hiding under this body.

"Binge eating disorder is very uncomfortable."

Anita's mouth didn't fall, she froze visibly with the naked eye, and Rann whispered, "I can't control my desire to eat. I can't help but hate myself, every time I take a bite, I feel uncomfortable and want to vomit out, but my body is uncontrollable, I keep eating, I keep eating. ”

Anita's body was trembling, the fat on her body was piling up like a swimming ring, and her breathing was heavy and white.

What Rann said pierced the biggest secret and weakness in her heart.

Her greatest fear, her greatest obsession.

All of these things will be infinitely magnified in this night hospital, and they will be constructed into the appearance of a night hospital.

"You, how, know ......"

"I said, Anita ......" Rann sighed, his eyes gentle and focused, "I've been watching you. ”

"It's okay, Anita, you're beautiful."

Rann whispered: "I'm a psychiatrist, I'll do psychotherapy for you, it's okay, we'll beat it, I'll help you beat gluttony, I'll always be there for you."

"You, you

Lying ......"

The blonde nurse was dripping with wet liquid from her face.

"You're leaving."

"But I'm back, isn't I, I'm not leaving."

"No, you will go, every patient who is healed will go."

"But the doctor will always stay," Rann said, "I'm a psychiatrist, Anita, and you can be my patient." Is there a doctor here who will leave his patients behind? ”

Anita shook her head in confusion, her eyes slowly lit up, "Can I?"

"Of course, good girl," Rann said softly, "trust me, everything will be fine, as long as you do what I say, the patient must follow the doctor's orders, right?" ”

"Yes, yes."

In the other rooms on the third floor, patients struggled to poke their heads out and watched the scene in awe.

……

The druid felt that this barrage made a lot of sense, and in any case, Rann was the one who led him into this dungeon, and there must be something deep about it.

Without hesitation, the druid went to the stairs and tried to get up, and then came back in less than a minute.

The stairs to the third floor are guarded by nurses, just like the chief doctor knocked on him before, it seems that everyone here has their own area that should be on duty, and it is easy not to leave their posts.

The druid looked at the blood-stained knife in the nurse's hand, turned around and walked away without hesitation.

"Well, now we're back to the beginning," the druid said to himself, "I don't have permission to go in on the third floor where Rann is, the nurses are on duty twenty-four hours a day, what can I do?" ”

[If you go there to squat, people will always have to go to the toilet!] 】

[Bad idea, you look for the pharmacy in the mental hospital, there must be laxatives in it, try adding laxatives to their diet. 】

[Why are laxatives available in pharmacies in psychiatric wards?] 】

[Heh, haven't you seen them swallow things indiscriminately, it's time to push them directly to the stomach lavage!] 】

The druid looked at the barrage of attention and felt tired.

Alas, it would be nice if the black cat could also come in, one person is still too little, if there are two people, at least there will be someone to let off wind when he takes laxatives.

The druid's main ward was the double room where the 'director' and old Luke lived before, but now they were all sedatives tied to the bed, and he didn't have much to do for a while, sitting on the bench in the hallway thinking about whether to go to the nurse's lounge to look for clues.

Just then, a heavy footstep slowly approached, and the druid turned his head to look, turned and ran.

Anita's expression instantly turned hideous: "Stop me!" Little Mouse! ”

Without looking back, the druid went straight to the director's office, preferring to face the Frankenstein director rather than the Roshan butcher.

The reality was as he wished, as soon as the druid ran to the door, the door of the director's office happened to open from the outside, the Frankenstein doctor stared, and as soon as he reached out, he grabbed the druid's skull, the sutures on his face writhed in the wind, and his voice was cold: "Hospital regulations, you can't run in the corridor, violators ......"

"Wait, wait! It's because she's running after me! The druid looked at his constant '-1-1' blood and screamed, and once again felt the combat power of the doctor monsters in this hospital, pointing at Anita who was chasing after him.

So the chief doctor looked at Anita gloomily again.

The blonde nurse said gloomily, "Someone who looks like him stole my picture, and I suspect they are a gang."

Chief Doctor: "It's just a photo, don't make a fuss."

"It's Ran's picture."

The chief doctor turned to the druid and said gently, "That's your fault, what about the photos, show me."

The druid handed over the photograph tremblingly, and the director took it in his hand and looked at it for a long time, and finally gave it back to him under Anita's impatient gaze.

The dispute was resolved, the chief doctor put the druid down, Anita snorted coldly, and when she turned around, she bumped the druid very much, directly knocking the player with a strength of only 30 into the air, and the druid looked at himself almost half of his blood without tears.

What an unwarranted disaster this is.

After Anita and the chief doctor left, the druid sighed and returned to the patient activity area, where he was suddenly reminded by a barrage.

[Druid, look at your pockets.] 】

[Just now the Roshan butcher put something in your pocket. 】

The druid was stunned for a moment, reached out and touched it, and sure enough, he found a note:

'Find the real dean, watch out for the prying eyes around you, but it doesn't have to be malicious, the dean is the core of this hospital, find a way to prove it to him. ’

Attribution, Rann.

[Brothers! It's really Rann's note! 】

[I'm pressed again, I'll just say it!] The druids were able to get into the hospital because of Ran, and Rann certainly wouldn't care! 】

[Plus one, I'm afraid Rann came in with a purpose, and the druid really became a pawn of the evil god. 】

[I've said a long time ago that Rann can't be so passive. 】

[Didn't anyone notice that it was the Roshan butcher who stuffed the note to the druid just now, what does this mean, Rann directly rebelled against one in such a short time!] 】

[Laugh to death, you don't look at the conversation between the chief doctor and the nurse just now, I don't think it's strange that they voted for Rann directly one day. 】

The barrage is all kinds of hindsight, blowing the black cat and successfully predicting it again, and of course, trying to fool the druid into throwing away the note and replacing it with himself.

Can the druids listen to them, of course, by putting the note away and pondering what it means.

"Find the real dean, so the current dean is fake?" The druid pretended to analyze, "And looking at the information given by Ran, the position of dean should be very important in the hospital, you can order doctors and nurses, think about it, how many employees there are in this hospital, let's assume that each of them is a D-class weird, which is also a big force." ”

[Now that Rann is suspected of being 'sealed', it is impossible to be easy and tough in the face of so many D-class weirdness, and it is obvious that this copy can only be outwitted. 】

[This is nonsense, if the evil god directly crushes this copy, what else do we players play, which mentally retarded game company will set up the plot like this? ] It's definitely going to give players a chance to become a savior! 】

[Don't make a play, let's analyze it first, Rann directly pointed out the main line of this dungeon, in this hospital dungeon, the dean can command all dungeon monsters, have the highest status of the hospital, doctors and nurses follow the rules of the hospital, if you want to defeat the leader of the strangers, you must start with the identity of the 'dean' stolen by him. 】

[And the middle sentence 'watching gaze', does it mean that there are still people watching around the player?] 】

[Not necessarily, Rann said that this gaze is not necessarily malicious, is there a possibility, it is a third-party force? 】

The barrage was still analyzing the original meaning of the note, and the druid had already gone straight to the hospital room, feeling his heart beat faster.

Could the real dean be the patient who always claims to be the 'dean'?

The druid re-entered the ward with the help of his identity, and at this time, the two patients who had been sedated before were also awake, and the druid couldn't wait to walk to the bedside of the 'director' and asked, "Are you really the director of Arkham Hospital?"

The 'dean' was stunned for a moment, and replied in seconds: "No."

Druid:......?

He lowered his head, glanced at his badge, and the medicine that the 'dean' had taken on the bedside table, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, I'm not asking the doctor, you can tell me the truth, I'm just here to investigate the truth."

[Speech: Failed]

The 'dean' snorted coldly and replied firmly: "It's not me, I'm awake now, I'm not the director of Arkham Hospital."

The druid looked at the 'dean' with a look of 'don't try to fool me' on his face, and he couldn't hold back.

The barrage is ruthless [hahahahahaha]

……

On the other side, Rann's psychotherapy room.

Ogle stared blankly at the empty chair behind his desk.

Rann had been sitting on it, but he was now gone.

Ogle stared for about half an hour before he confirmed that Rann should not be back for a while, his hands raised and lowered, and finally stood motionless at his desk, like a statue.

At this moment, there was a knock at the door, which Ogle ignored at first, but the knocking continued, and finally, Ogle reluctantly moved his steps to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Archie looked anxious outside the door: "Albert is gone, I ......"

When the door opened, he saw that it was not Rann inside the door, but a tall man with messy hair, and the words he was about to say were suddenly stuck in his mouth, and after a long time, he asked, "May I ask where is Dr. Ran?"

Ogle lowered his eyes and looked at him for a while, the gaze blocked by his hair seemed to be examining something, Archie had dealt with many vicious criminals in the police station, but when he met this person's eyes, for some reason he subconsciously turned his head stiffly, and he didn't even dare to look at each other.

As if to confirm something, Ogle said slowly, "Rann is gone."

Archie was stunned for a moment, turned his head sharply, endured great discomfort and met Ogel's gaze head-on, and said with difficulty: "Albert is also gone, it's the blonde officer who came to Rann last time, I suspect him."

Archie gritted his teeth, "He may have made a move on Ran."

"It's not him." Ogle didn't want to say anything.

Archie: "...... Why are you so convinced. ”

Ogle didn't answer Archie's question, but said, "Rann is in Arkham Hospital right now."

Without waiting for Archie to ask questions, he took a step back and closed the door to the psychotherapy room.

The door closed mercilessly in front of him, and Archie's expression was cloudy, he wasn't sure what Ogle meant, he had only come here to ask Lane how to find Albert.

After returning from the apartment last time, Archie tried to find him, but learned from the police station that Sergeant Albert had been injured while out on duty some time ago and had taken several days off.

After several days of fruitless searching, Archie had to accept this fact, and at the same time couldn't help but worry about whether Albert had encountered some problems, or that now the identity of the undercover agent was discovered and he was being eviled. Cult organization hunt and kill.

But now that Rann is gone, it's likely that he's been caught up in the machinations of strangers.

Now there are two paths in front of him, one is to look for the missing Albert, but now he has no idea where he is, and the other is to look for Ran, who just said that he is in the hospital, but Archie does not know where he got the information, or why did he tell him, and he didn't go?

A voice said in his head, Rann is an evil god, his origin is unfathomable, even if he disappears temporarily, he will not be good.

Archie stood still for several minutes, trying to find a factor that would make up his mind, only to shiver in the cold wind of the street.

Arkham's weather has been gloomy lately, as if to imply that something bad is about to happen. Recently, there have been a lot fewer weirdos around the psychotherapy room...... Well?

Archie suddenly realizes that something is wrong, it is the group of weirdos who believe in Rann, who usually wander around the psychiatric clinic disguised as customers, and will greet anyone who stops nearby and asks if they need help.

But today, he's been standing at the door for so long, and he hasn't seen a single weirdo.

Archie turned, his trench coat blown up by the cold wind, and strode out into the street to hail a taxi.

"Go to Arkham Hospital." ：，，.
