cysvhhz Chapter 17

 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?”

    1. Really? Thanks so much! I’ll double-check it again. This one wasn’t my translation it was done by someone else on the blog, and they dropped it. :) When I picked it up, I didn’t check their work. I’ll fix it by the weekend since I’m currently busy translating The Widower NPC in the Infinite. Thanks for letting me know!

 “Bang—” The air trembled, and bright light hit Gu Zhan's eyelids, making him squint. “Patient 707 has been admitted.” A cold female voice sounded. Patient 707? Who? Gu Zhan squinted against the blinding light and realized he was lying down under a surgical shadowless lamp. Next to him stood several people in deep green surgical scrubs, their faces obscured by the light. One of them leaned over to look at him; the blue medical mask covered most of his features, leaving only a pair of narrow, dark eyes visible. He said, “707 has woken up. Administer a sedative.” A syringe pierced the back of Gu Zhan's hand, and the cold liquid flowed in, gradually blurring his consciousness... ... “Crash—” “Bang!” The sound of metal clashing echoed sharply. A metal bed was forcefully pushed away, sliding a great distance before crashing against the wall. Gu Zhan's head struck the bed frame heavily, and the intense pain momentarily brought him back to awareness. Then came the sound of a door ...

Translation Update! 🍙 Translation Update! 🍙 ✨ Quick note: English isn't my first language, so please understand there might be some typos or awkward phrasing - I'm doing my best! ✨ Hey everyone, just a quick update: As of today, April 28, 2025 , I want to give you all a heads-up about a few small issues you might come across in the story, specifically with some of the prop names. It's not exactly a typo issue—it's more about changes I've made over time. For instance, I originally used the term 'data concealment number' but later changed it to 'number concealment data.' Since these are just prop names in the story, it's not a major issue for the plot, but I totally get that some of you might find it a little annoying if you're really particular about details. ...

 In early September, during a Mathematical Analysis class at A University of Science and Technology, the sophomore students were noticeably distracted. The young professor at the podium glanced down and spotted a large group of students engrossed in their phones. Though he wasn’t a high school teacher, he couldn’t help but lament inwardly: “This generation is worse than the last. Even in Math Analysis class, they dare to slack off?” He could already envision the dismal outcomes on the final grades. Clearing his throat somewhat theatrically, he still received no attention. Growing annoyed, the professor resolved to be tough with the grades this year to combat this poor attitude. At the back of the classroom, Ge Zhicheng's heart raced as he continuously refreshed the backend of the academic system's page. What the professor didn’t know was that today was the day for second-year students in the College of Science to be reassigned to dormitories; the assignment list would be post...

Jiang Yan ignored 663, curling up under the blanket like a quail. The "Hunter" holding him would occasionally rub his head, seemingly captivated by the texture. Jiang Yan obediently played the role of a "pet." Based on his years of watching horror movies and reading scary stories, he knew that being "clever" or "kind-hearted" in such games only led to quicker deaths. "You still have five days," the Hunter said, savoring the softness and compliance of the person in his arms. His pale, pupil-less eyes glinted with pleasure. Although a sheep's head couldn't show human expressions, it was clear he was smiling. Hearing this, the four people huddled in the cage shivered in unison. Only Wang Yu sat blankly by the edge, tears streaming as he gazed at his lover. The "Cops and Robbers" Game The "Hunter" acted as the cop, giving the players (the "robbers") ten days to escape the forest. If they found t...

The broadcast from the main system echoed throughout the instance. In the pitch-black snowy night, accompanied by the eerie howling wind of the ebony forest, Jiang Yan felt utterly disoriented. The "Hunter" in front of him couldn’t hear the main system’s intrusive voice and was still waiting for his "little sheep" to kiss him. However, Jiang Yan simply reached out, gently touched the demon-like ram horns of the "Hunter," and then unhesitatingly pulled the blanket over his head. Hunter: "...So disobedient." Soon after, a kiss landed softly on the top of Jiang Yan's head. A pair of long, broad hands rested on his waist as the "Hunter" drifted into slumber. Meanwhile, the game forum’s players erupted into an explosive celebration: [I’m dying of laughter! What kind of penalty is this?? It’s my first time hearing such a ridiculous deduction reason!] [“Please immediately kiss the BOSS.” What the heck? Hahaha...] [This will go down...
