Chapter 53 Abnormality

 Quiet clinic room,

The sharp and piercing sound of high heels is like nails constantly piercing the surface of the eardrum... It even makes people feel that the heels are made of long nails to make such an uncomfortable sound.

and,

The sound of high-heeled shoes advancing is intermittent, and there will be a pause every time you walk.

Captain Edmund also quickly realized the reason for the "intermittent", "Is this guy patrolling the apprentice dormitories on the third floor one by one?"

Yi Chen nodded, "It's very possible... If this is the case, it indirectly means that the other party does not know our exact location, and our current situation is not considered passive.

I peeked in to see if I could see what was patrolling the room. "

Edmund was a little confused, "What do you think? Going out now is not a wise choice."

 “No need to go out.”

Yi Chen pointed at his shoulder, and then poked it lightly.

A black ball of flesh slowly squeezed out from between the collar, and the little black hands stretched out, as if they had not yet woken up, and did not take the "greying" that was happening here at all seriously.

 “Little grapes,

 There seems to be a patient outside who is checking every dormitory on the third floor.

 When the other person checks into the room next door, how about you go around the window and see what the other person looks like? "

 “No.” Little Putao refused.

 “Can’t you just take a look?”

“I am still in a state called ‘infancy’… In this completely unknown environment where graying occurs, once you leave your body and act independently, the risks will increase exponentially.”

Yi Chen caught a key point in these words and responded with a smile:

“So, as long as you don’t break away from my body, it’ll be fine, right?”

 After a while,

Yi Chen almost pressed his body against the window, stretched out his entire left arm as far as possible, and pressed against the external wall to touch the next room.

certainly,

It is naturally impossible to reach the window next door with just the length of your arm.

 Gajigaji~

 After six months of special training, Yi Chen became more proficient in controlling plants, and a thick branch grew from his palm, almost as thick as his arm.

The little grape's body is leaning toward the window next door along with the branches.

"enough! Don't be too conspicuous! 』

The branch stops growing immediately when it touches the window frame.

Little Grape gently held the rusty window frame with his small black hands, and slowly poked out half of his eyeballs to observe the erosion of the next door.

 This dormitory is in a high degree of damage.

 The lower half of the door has disappeared, and only the upper half is connected to the door shaft, barely sealing the room.

Ta!

With a sharp sound, the mysterious patient who was patrolling here stopped in front of the door.

 Since the lower half of the door is missing,

I just happened to see a pair of black high heels about 20cm high.

 Two long white legs,

 And the hem of the white coat,

Based on the above information, you can roughly imagine a beautiful, generous, tall female doctor who specializes in night shift ward rounds.

However,

　　When the door to the upper part of the room was pushed open by the 'female doctor', the wonderful fantasy in the brain was instantly shattered.

  1. A lower body that was cut off at the waist but completely preserved.

  2. A metal stent for an infusion bottle is inserted vertically into the broken part of the waist.

3. The infusion bottle on the stent is connected to the lower body with a catheter, ensuring the freshness and energy supply of the two long legs at a normal infusion rate.

  4. A human head with black hair covering its face is stuck on the top of the bracket, and the specific appearance cannot be seen clearly.

  5. Finally, he wore a white coat with the English words "Twilight Hospital" printed on it.

If you only look at the lower body or the back, she really looks like a female doctor.

 Such a visual image came through Little Grape, which made Yi Chen feel slightly uncomfortable.

Most of the diseased individuals I have seen before have maintained their human appearance, and at most they are mermaids covered with fish scales.

 The things we are seeing now are beyond the scope of human beings to some extent.

 Now that we have seen it clearly,

The plant growth of the branch structure quickly retracted the palm, and the small grapes also returned to the body.

 When Yi Chen described the ‘female doctor’ he saw to Edmund in detail,

 A professional word came out of his mouth again.

“[Non-Normality], has such an individual already appeared? Inferring from this, the gray domain transformation that occurred here has already entered an advanced stage.”

 This vocabulary is also mentioned in graying-related classes.

Edmund muttered softly:

"The "False Moon Incident" of the past must have affected the clinic. There was a large-scale battle inside, with heavy casualties... Some remaining, uncleaned flesh, flesh, body fluids, and even some complete limbs and instruments in the clinic are very likely to be in the clinic. Under the action of ashes, a certain combination that conforms to morbid laws occurs.

 Thus, this abnormal patient was born,

 The "self-awareness" of these things is very weird, and their various actions and attack patterns are difficult to judge and reason through conventional experience.

 I have never been exposed to anything like this, and I have no relevant combat experience. "

"Um…"

 At this time, the inspection in the next room has ended.

The ‘female doctor’ stepped on high heels and stopped at the door of the dormitory where the two of them were in just two big steps.

 Gah! Ga!

 A metal-like object scraped against the door. Because the door was locked, he could not push it open.

 Suddenly~Boom!

A large hole was opened in the thick wooden door, and the broken wooden boards flew down together with the door lock structure.

 The wooden door opens.

 The long legs and high heels officially entered this very suspicious dormitory.

The head stuck on the metal frame gently smelled the smell of strangers in the room, and began to check with exaggerated steps.

It’s a pity that the test results were disappointing, and no one was found.

 The female doctor had a rather disappointed face under her black hair. After sighing slightly, she could only turn around and leave the dormitory.

  【Ten seconds ago】

Yi Chen and Edmund had climbed out of the window first and came to the open and open rooftop area.

Perhaps it was the barrier effect provided by the gentleman's clothing, but the two of them did not feel any discomfort due to being exposed to the moonlight...as long as they avoided looking directly at the weird moon in the sky as much as possible.

 Before we don’t know the current changes in the clinic, try to avoid fighting as much as possible.

If a conflict breaks out with the 'female doctor' in the dormitory, the noise of the fighting is likely to lead to more and more troublesome things.

"How about we climb down the wall and land in the front yard of the clinic...starting from the lobby, and conduct a comprehensive search of the clinic in the early morning, searching for traces of Dagbert and the others?"

 “Well, that’s all it can do.”

If they had not considered the missing teammates, they could have left the clinic temporarily and retreated to the mountains and forests... until the night passed and the moon disappeared, then they could continue the secret medicine mission.

Just as the two were about to climb out of the rooftop,

　　Step! tread!

 Suddenly there was a sound of heavy footsteps at the entrance to the rooftop.

A black figure larger than a human body was standing there, with a liquid tank stuck in its 'head', and its eyeballs soaked between the tanks were staring at the two people who were about to 'go downstairs'.

Just when the atmosphere at the scene was a little awkward,

A black ball of flesh suddenly squeezed out from Yi Chen's shoulder, and he shouted with great excitement:

"Grape!"
