Bohemia couldn’t help but gag, and her reaction served as a reminder for the other two. Suddenly, their stomachs churned as well. Even for posthumans, such a b.l.o.o.d.y and gruesome scene was rare. They unconsciously took a few steps back, and Ya Jiang accidentally slammed the door shut with a loud ‘
bang
.’
As the door closed, the overwhelming, greasy stench of blood and the faint odor of decomposing organs were trapped inside the room. Lin Sanjiu felt like she had been reborn, and she quickly took a deep breath. She was certain the others were doing the same without even looking at them.
“What… What happened?” Ya Jiang was the first to raise his head, his face incredibly pale amidst the disheveled hair. “You guys were at the door just now… Did you…”
“Think carefully before you speak,” Bohemia said, wiping her mouth. “If we could enter, would we need to wait for you? Besides, why would we kill her? Why crush all her organs into a wall when we could reap so many?”
Ya Jiang fell silent, burying his face in his hands. After a couple of seconds, his voice came out in a trembling manner, “I finally gathered enough points to extend my stay in the room. Now, not only did I lose the person, but I can’t use the room either…”
“Who killed Wus.h.i.+ Fan?” Lin Sanjiu said, then immediately corrected herself. “No, martial law ended only a while ago, and the room was locked the whole time… Who could have killed her? And why?”
“The big puddle inside,” Bohemia said, pointing to the door, “isn’t one of your friends, is it? You just said the two-pieces guy could take her organs.”
Lin Sanjiu shook her head.
“It’s settled then,” Bohemia said as if she had completed a task. “Who killed her is none of our business.”
“But…”
“But what? Do you want a magnifying gla.s.s and a pipe?” Bohemia’s mood was sour. She poked Sesame Cake, who was still being held. “We can dig out her secrets, and then we do what we want. What’s wrong with that?”
Ya Jiang’s lips trembled for a moment. “Then what about my room…”
Bohemia looked at him unsympathetically. “Just clean it up.”
Ya Jiang’s expression was as if he had swallowed a live toad. He took a deep breath, opened the door again, and glanced inside. After he closed the door again, he looked calmer but even paler. “The head is still there.”
“What?” Lin Sanjiu asked.
“Wus.h.i.+ Fan’s head is intact… It rolled to the corner.”
Bohemia’s face wrinkled. The two fell silent, and they both looked at Lin Sanjiu, waiting for her decision. “What should we do now?”
Part of Lin Sanjiu wanted to scream to know who killed Wus.h.i.+ Fan and why, but another part of her understood that Bohemia had a point. Wus.h.i.+ Fan and her brother hadn’t made any friends, so it wouldn’t be surprising if someone sought revenge. Moreover, it had nothing to do with her. However, the fact that someone killed Wus.h.i.+ Fan without reaping her organs bothered her. It made her a little impatient. She remembered encountering a man who had been beaten to death on a wall when she first entered the hospital. Although his blood was splattered all over the wall, the killer had already taken his organs.
“Each round for a patient room costs five points,” Ya Jiang mumbled, still mindful of his loss. “But… even the mattress is soaked with blood.”
Lin Sanjiu looked down at Sesame Cake. The latter’s face was tightly set, seeming to have decided not to say anything regardless of the situation. Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment and made up her mind, saying, “We need another room.”
They couldn’t casually ask Sesame Cake, in such a bustling place, how she had preserved her organs. Moreover, if Lin Sanjiu hadn’t borrowed Ya Jiang’s room to lock Wus.h.i.+ Fan, he wouldn’t have lost those five points now. Although it wasn’t her fault, she didn’t mind compensating Ya Jiang a bit.
“Let’s go to the payment counter and buy another round of patient rooms,” Lin Sanjiu suggested.
Ya Jiang couldn’t buy another room and Lin Sanjiu would get targeted the moment she showed her face, leaving only Bohemia, the last “registered citizen.” Bohemia seemed to have thought of it at the same time and said preemptively, “The room I bought is mine. Don’t even think of bringing him in.”
“I’ll give you some points—”
“No, it’s not going to happen.”
After they sneaked into the lower level of the hospital, Bohemia wouldn’t need her room anymore. But if she mentioned this now, it would only complicate matters further. Lin Sanjiu rubbed her temples and decided to take it step by step. “Let’s go inside.”
Luckily, they didn’t waste much time, and the staff at the payment counter remained in their positions. From a distance, Lin Sanjiu stopped in her tracks. She jumped onto a wall to get a better look and noticed a small piece of good news. The NPC from earlier had changed s.h.i.+fts, and now a middle-aged man, weighing at least two hundred pounds, was sitting behind the counter. However, four heavily-armed guards were still standing behind him.
Similar to when they rushed out of the payment counter, one thing remained unchanged: Wus.h.i.+ Ming was still lying limp on the floor outside the counter. His body seemed to have been tampered with, and his posture was different from what Lin Sanjiu remembered. Presumably, more than one player had checked his body and, upon finding that he had no organs left, left disappointed.
Wus.h.i.+ Ming seemed to have deep feelings for his sister. Considering how Lin Sanjiu was about to put him to use, it might be better that he was currently unconscious. Lin Sanjiu sighed inwardly and felt increasingly disgusted with this world. She took out Wus.h.i.+ Ming’s organs and the [Bone Broth] and handed them to Bohemia, instructing her, “You’ll stay here at the payment counter for a while… But don’t worry, we’ll be watching over you from behind. If anyone comes, I’ll protect you and give you a signal.”
“Stay here for a while?” Bohemia looked suspiciously at the thin slice of organ and the jar of soup in her hand. As she raised the jar to her mouth, she asked, “Aren’t these just some organs? I’ll exchange them and leave. Why do I have to stay?”
Lin Sanjiu quickly took back the [Bone Broth]. “This isn’t for you to drink! I have what you need right here.” She explained the effect of the Special Item, then said, “Exchange the organs for points and buy another patient room. Then, I need you to cut open the old man’s skin and sprinkle this soup bit by bit on his spine.”
Holding a protein nut bar in her hand, Bohemia froze in midair.
“You have a reaper, right? Sweep it over the newly grown spine and collect the bone marrow… gather as much as you can.”
“Do I look like a butcher to you?” she said, her voice raising sharply. “Why don’t you do this filthy and disgusting task yourself?”
Clearly annoyed, she didn’t wait for Lin Sanjiu to reply, turning around to dash to the payment counter. She grabbed Wus.h.i.+ Ming’s body and, like a small missile, ran back, startling even the NPC. When she got closer, she threw the old man down and shouted, “Here! Keep your rotten soup. I’ll wait until you’ve finished collecting the bone marrow before I go to the payment counter.”
That worked too.
Lin Sanjiu glanced at the others beside her. She also didn’t want to cut open a living body, break his spine, and extract bone marrow, especially after witnessing Wus.h.i.+ Fan’s miserable condition. Apart from Sesame Cake, who was staring at her without blinking, the other two had averted their gazes.
Once the blade sank in, the old man’s ashen-brown skin was cut open stickily. When it landed on the wound, Lin Sanjiu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Someone had apparently collected the last remaining blood inside Wus.h.i.+ Ming’s body, and now the area cut open by the blade was empty, devoid of organs or blood, like a dry, fatty-skinned bag. It still made her stomach churn, but it was much better than she had expected.
Bohemia and Ya Jiang also turned their heads, occasionally glancing back. Bohemia looked at the scattered tools on the ground, then back at the protein nut bar in her hand, and snorted, “You only know how to lie to me.”
“How did I lie to you?”
“You said you didn’t have time to exchange things, but you still rushed into the payment counter and ended up being wanted… So, you also brought a reaper, didn’t you?”
Lin Sanjiu endured the discomfort and poured some Bone Broth onto the end of the spine. The aroma of the meat soup mixed with the smell inside the opened human skin bag, making it nauseating. She used the reaper to collect some bone marrow before answering, “I got this from Wus.h.i.+ Fan, the woman who died.”
Bohemia was taken aback.
Lin Sanjiu noticed Bohemia’s surprised expression, which she hadn’t put into words, and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Wus.h.i.+ Fan’s reaper?” Bohemia’s gaze wandered back and forth on the stainless steel rectangle, as if not quite believing it. “So… everything you’ve reaped with it belongs to Wus.h.i.+ Fan. Even if it’s converted into points, it’s still under her name. Don’t you know?”
