Third Floor Director's Office.
The director sat behind his desk, appearing to look over patient files while actually fixated on the wall.
Finally, a subtle smile appeared on his face... the person he was waiting for had arrived.
The other party seemed to be in some trouble... and he noticed the director's gaze.
The director stood up and walked toward the wall.
As expected, just as he got closer, he disappeared.
He must have left.
However, someone in trouble... wouldn’t resolve their issues so quickly, right?
On the other side, Gu Zhan instructed Xiao Ling to quickly switch the view again and exit the wall.
But due to the director's interference, the new exit point was not far from the original location.
After Gu Zhan emerged from the wall, he found himself only outside the room, in the corridor.
Right at the door...
Wen Ge had been blocking the entrance. The moment Gu Zhan landed, he sensed something and suddenly turned around, just in time to see Gu Zhan.
He shouted, “He’s here!”
Almost simultaneously, the head nurse burst out of the room!
Without looking back, Gu Zhan ran away into the distance!
The head nurse was unusually fast, rapidly closing the gap between them.
Gu Zhan didn’t need to turn around to know the head nurse was chasing him.
He had no choice but to turn and head down a side corridor!
The moment he broke the head nurse's line of sight, he leaped into the wall space.
When the head nurse reached the staircase, she found it completely empty...
“It’s impossible! Absolutely impossible!” The head nurse clearly understood the distance between her and Gu Zhan; there was no way he could disappear from the stairs in such a short time.
While the head nurse stood at the staircase, Wen Ge caught up.
He didn’t expect that chasing one person, one of whom was an NPC, would end up losing track of him!
He had already alerted the target and lost the chance to deceive Gu Zhan.
If Gu Zhan returned to the ward alive, he would definitely expose Wen Ge as a murderer, making it impossible for him to complete his personal mission!
The more Wen Ge thought about it, the more irritable he became, unable to control his emotions, he shouted at the head nurse, “What are you doing? You can’t even catch one person!”
The head nurse was stunned. She had been in this hospital for so long, always making patients tremble in fear, and no one had ever yelled at her like that!
If it weren’t for the urgent situation, she would have given this patient a piece of her mind.
Her expression immediately turned cold: “If you hadn’t had those ulterior motives, we wouldn’t have fallen into such a passive situation.”
Wen Ge, being scolded, had a dark expression.
Just as the two were blaming each other, footsteps suddenly came from upstairs.
Wen Ge quickly looked up: “Over there!”
Gu Zhan had no choice; once he entered the wall space, he would immediately be targeted by the director.
That feeling of being watched was like a thorn in his back, as if the wall space could collapse at any moment.
He could only perform short-distance movements within the wall space.
At this moment, he ran toward the third floor.
[Did I see that right? Is he... going to the third floor??]
[??? I don’t understand.]
[But isn’t the director on the third floor? Doesn’t he know?]
[He probably doesn’t know; we have a god view, and the director can only see him from one side.]
[Ah, but he knows the director's office is on the third floor; he shouldn’t be running up there.]
[The most dangerous place is the safest?]
Sure enough, the head nurse saw Gu Zhan running up to the third floor and unhesitatingly gave chase.
As far as she knew, the director had left the hospital that morning.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen this time to act.
“Chase!”
But when they caught up, Gu Zhan’s figure had vanished again from the corridor.
It was at this moment that Wen Ge realized it wasn’t that Gu Zhan was running fast!
It was that he had a special item; he had used that special item!
But wasn’t he a newcomer? Newcomers don’t have systems, let alone skills and items!
Could it be... he had been lying to himself from the start?
He was not a newcomer at all! He had been lying since entering the instance!
Gu Zhan's item clearly had many limitations; he could only perform short-distance teleportation. He immediately shouted at the head nurse, “He has a special ability to teleport! I’ll block the corridor, you check each room for him!”
The head nurse didn’t understand what he meant; what do you mean he has a special ability to teleport? No one in this world can teleport!
But the situation was urgent, so she began searching room by room.
In the live stream, the perspective became clearer.
They could see Gu Zhan moving back and forth between the hospital and the wall space. Each time he entered the wall, the director was able to more clearly pinpoint his location. Meanwhile, the head nurse and Wen Ge gradually discovered his secret.
Both sides were encircling and intercepting him, turning the entire third floor into a huge hunting ground.
Yet Gu Zhan couldn’t escape this hunting ground.
In the end, he was cornered by the head nurse in the innermost room on the third floor.
He seemed to have truly exhausted himself, pressed against the wall, completely motionless.
In the head nurse’s eyes, he looked as pitiful as a little cat.
The head nurse was finally pleased; her previous frustration vanished. She wore a malicious smile: “Can you still run? Where else can you go?”
[Why isn’t he teleporting?!]
[Xiao Ling must be at her limit.]
[Running is useless; he’s either caught by the director or the head nurse, both paths lead to death.]
[I’d rather he get caught by the director than let Wen Ge succeed.]
Gu Zhan pressed against the wall, appearing fearful, but his expression was calm. He asked the head nurse, “You conspired with that person to take my life?”
