After finishing with the patients, the doctors suddenly remembered someone hadn't arrived yet. They turned to Yu Yu.

"Didn't you inform the director?"

Hearing this, Yu Yu frowned slightly: "I did. Director Bo might be busy with something else. He should be here soon."

As soon as she finished speaking, a tall male figure appeared in the distance.

Bo Jingmo hurried over wearing a mask. When his gaze fell upon Yu Li among the crowd, it lingered imperceptibly for a few seconds before he walked straight to the doctors.

"What's the current situation?"

The doctors reported truthfully and handed the medical records to Bo Jingmo.

Yu Li stood nearby. As the man passed by, his clothes stirred a gentle breeze carrying a faint pine scent mixed with disinfectant.

Was it just her imagination, or was there also a very faint... trace of blood?

Yu Li's gaze paused briefly as she caught a glimpse of white bandages peeking out from the man's sleeve.

Her eyes flickered with realization.

Bo Jingmo was injured?

But since the wound was hidden beneath his sleeve, Yu Li couldn't determine how serious it was.

The viewers hadn't noticed either, their attention still captured by the old woman from earlier.

[What was that old lady trying to say about the fourth floor?]

[Who knows? Was she possessed or deliberately giving clues? Suddenly mentioning the fourth floor then stopping...]

[Something feels off. If it was a clue, the ghosts on the fourth floor are already common knowledge. Why bother? It seemed more like deliberately baiting Yu Li to go up there.]

[I thought the same. I expected some crucial clue, then Yu Yu suddenly said "her throat is damaged" - totally confused me.]

[So... a ghost? Maybe because Yu Li helped that man earlier, it noticed her and wants to kill her now?]

[Hard to say, but possible. Since Bo Jingmo isn't the antagonist in this instance, Yu Li has to rely on herself.]

[Damn, with so many patients acting up, I bet there's more than one evil spirit. Is Yu Li supposed to fight hundreds alone? System, you're ruthless!]

[Feels targeted. She's alone against so many ghosts, and Bo Jingmo's useless - amnesiac while his wife's in danger.]

[If he doesn't recover his memories soon, he'll lose his wife.]

Night fell, darkness enveloping the entire hospital. From outside, all windows in the tall building were pitch black except for a few scattered rooms with dim lights.

The incident had kept the hospital busy. Most doctors and nurses stayed overtime to monitor patients. If any more abnormalities occurred, they might have to move everyone to the fourth floor.

The third-floor nurse station remained brightly lit. Yu Yu was carefully reviewing records when she noticed Yu Li organizing equipment. After a moment's hesitation, she walked over.

"You've worked hard."

Yu Li looked up with a smile: "It's my duty."

After finishing organizing the last item, she asked: "Sister Yu, what else needs doing later?"

Yu Yu paused, then sighed almost imperceptibly:

"We need to do another round on the fourth floor later."

Originally, she had arranged to go with another nurse, but that person suddenly took emergency leave, claiming personal matters.

Yu Yu knew the excuse was fake - the nurse probably sensed something wrong and didn't want to risk her life.

Given today's bizarre events, avoiding the fourth floor was the smart choice. But as head nurse, if she was too scared to go, wouldn't that confirm the horror stories were true? How could they work normally afterwards?

So Yu Yu had no choice but to go.

Yu Li blinked, then asked gently with curved eyes:

"Would you like me to accompany you?"

"You?"

Yu Yu was surprised. Hadn't Yu Li heard the hospital stories?

Yet she was still willing to go to the fourth floor?

She suddenly remembered how cautious and fearful the girl had looked when asking about those stories at noon, mentioning her special constitution.

But now...

Meeting Yu Li's bright, smiling eyes, Yu Yu swallowed her questions.

First impressions could indeed be deceiving.

After consideration, she nodded: "Alright. I'll let you know when it's time."

The matter seemed settled, but ten minutes later, Yu Yu returned with a strange expression:

"Actually... Yu Li, you don't need to come. I'll go with someone else."

The girl was momentarily stunned but quickly composed herself. Without asking why, she simply smiled politely.

"Alright. Please be careful, Sister Yu."

Yu Yu hesitated, then couldn't resist asking quietly: "Yu Li... are you sure you've never met the director before? Could you have been classmates or something?"

Hearing this, Yu Li looked startled, then replied helplessly: "Really, we haven't. Didn't you already ask me during lunch? Why ask again?"

Why else? Because... the director had just specifically messaged her not to let Yu Li go to the fourth floor.

Yu Yu had noticed Bo Jingmo's unusual attention towards this intern. Frowning, she sensed something amiss.

Why wouldn't the director let Yu Li go to the fourth floor?

Because of Yu Li's special constitution? Did the director know about it? But they supposedly didn't know each other. Unless... this was the director protecting Yu Li?

When she asked for reasons, the man had simply replied indifferently:

"No particular reason. Have Yu Li come to the fifth floor to fetch some documents. Tell her not to take the elevator - use the stairs."
