Chapter 87: Chapter 72 Identity_2
Chapter 87 -72 Identity_2
Bang!
A loud explosion echoed, and the doctor’s clothes were blown to shreds, scattering like butterflies in the air.
The second personality reminded: “You’ve made a noise. The other two doctors are rushing over.”
A few seconds later, two figures in white coats sprinted over. Despite their large movements, they made no noise, arriving silently beside the now-naked doctor.
“Such speed!”
Zhou Yuan was secretly alarmed. These abnormal creatures ran without making any sound, so stealthy that they could be right behind you without you noticing.
Splat!
The sound of flesh tearing echoed, and blood splattered everywhere.
The two doctors didn’t hesitate to attack the naked doctor, violently pinning him to the ground, tearing into his flesh like wild beasts.
With a slight pull, Yi Dongjie ripped off an arm, causing a massive spray of blood that splattered onto nearby shelves, staining them a glaring crimson red.
Within moments, blood pooled on the floor, and Yi Dongjie and Zhang Qin were thoroughly drenched in red.
“Just as I thought…”
Seeing this, Zhou Yuan confirmed his suspicion.
[Rule one: Those in white coats are medical staff, those in blue and white striped patient gowns are patients, and those in security uniforms are security. If you see someone in any other clothes in the building, immediately call for help or go to the nurse’s station.]
In this horror rule, clothing represents identity.
Wearing a white coat, these abnormal creatures become medical staff. But without it, they lose their identity and face the rules’ punishment and erasure.
“I’m invincible.”
[Targeted Clothing Exploder] was absolutely invincible under this rule. No matter how powerful the abnormal creature was, one blow would strip it of its identity.
“Too bad the clothes always shatter. If I could take off a complete white coat, it would save the trip to the surgery room… but I remember there’s a skill that can repair broken items…”
Ignoring the eerie sounds of chewing, Zhou Yuan calmly opened the game store, filtered the keywords, and found the needed skill.
[Name: Major Repair Skill]
[Quality: Perfect]
[Effect: Restores broken items to their original state.]
[Note: With this skill, Miss Elsa became a renowned mortician. She could perfectly restore damaged corpses, even if only a pinky finger was delivered. However, this skill cannot resurrect the dead.]
[Price: 50,000 Star Coins]
“Can’t afford the perfect quality, but there is a junior version available.”
Zhou Yuan glanced at the next skill.
[Name: Minor Repair Skill]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Effect: Restores broken items to their original state, provided enough fragments are collected.]
[Cost: Varies based on the number of fragments, between 10 and 2400 spirituality points.]
[Note: Even broken mirrors can be mended.]
[Price: 7,000 Star Coins.]
Currently holding 2,300 Star Coins, Zhou Yuan had just taken 40 bottles of Anti-pollution Pills from the freezer, selling 16 bottles would net 4,800 Star Coins.
2300 + 4800 = 7100.
Purchase!
[Star Coins -7000]
[You have purchased ‘Lesser Restoration Skill’]
“Done. Let’s go, aibo!”
Zhou Yuan and the second personality simultaneously activated [Targeted Clothing Exploder].
Bang! Bang!
Yi Dongjie and Zhang Qin’s clothes exploded instantly, turning into fluttering fragments.
Deprived of their doctor identities, they fell backward, hitting the ground with a thud, their bodies stiff as sculptures, as if they had been frozen for years.
A shadow slid out from under the shelves, quickly expanding into Zhou Yuan’s form.
He swiftly approached the three corpses, storing them one by one in his backpack.
[Severely Damaged Strange Corpse], [Strange Corpse *2].
Sell.
[Star Coins +2500]
“Quite valuable…”
Zhou Yuan suddenly felt an urge for a killing spree; those rule creatures were like golden Star Coins to him!
With a thought, a black mire appeared on the floor, shooting out thousands of sticky black threads, gathering the scattered pieces of white clothing.
Before long, a pile of white clothing fragments appeared before Zhou Yuan, many stained with blood.
He touched a finger to the pile, activating [Minor Repair Skill].
In a flash of light, a complete white coat emerged, the blood stains on the fragments cleaned away.
[Name: White Coat]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Effect: Wearing it grants you the identity of a doctor.]
[Note: Those who advise others to study medicine are cursed by heaven.]
Zhou Yuan restored the other two white coats and stored them in his backpack.
With the abnormal creatures guarding the pharmaceutical warehouse dead, he freely wandered, searching for hidden clues, though clearly, it was a vain effort.
Using Ghost Walker to phase through walls, Zhou Yuan exited the pharmaceutical warehouse and looked back; the metal door still stood tall.
He walked backward down the stairs facing the door, watching it vanish like a mirage, revealing the original layout of the floor.
Descending again, the metal door did not reappear.
“It’s all a matter of luck…”
Without dwelling on it, Zhou Yuan hurried back to the first-floor cafeteria, moving swiftly enough that most patients were still eating.
After greeting a care worker, Zhou Yuan left the main building and headed to the first ward.
Back in his room, he immediately donned the white coat.
“Doesn’t feel like much… what’s this?”
Feeling inside the pocket, Zhou Yuan found a slip of paper.
[Congratulations on becoming part of our hospital’s medical team. Here are the rules you must follow.]
[1. Those in white coats are medical staff, those in blue and white striped patient gowns are patients, and those in security uniforms are security. If you see someone in any other clothes in the building, immediately drive them out or call security. If you hear a patient calling for help, go to their aid immediately.]
[2. The hospital’s uniforms are irreplaceable. So make sure you never lose your uniform. It’s as important as your life.]
[3. Ensure patients take their medication on time, and confirm they have consumed it.]
[4. If you are on night duty and see someone knocking on a patient’s door, drive them away promptly.]
[5. The hospital does not keep any pets. If you hear a dog barking, remain silent and go to the break room immediately.]
[6. If you see a patient in a red-striped gown, run and call security immediately.]

[7. If a patient pesters you, tell them you’re not their attending physician.]
“The rules have changed…”
Reflecting on this, Zhou Yuan buttoned up the white coat, hiding the blue and white striped patient gown underneath.
Opening the door, he walked out and encountered a medical staff member in the corridor. It was the same care worker who had scolded off the strange creature knocking at the door last night.
But now, the care worker didn’t seem to recognize Zhou Yuan and greeted him with a smile: “Had your meal?”
“Just finished.” Zhou Yuan calmly replied, passing by the care worker.
It seemed the change in identity didn’t arouse any suspicion… Zhou Yuan pondered as he arrived at the nurse’s station, where only one care worker was on duty; the rest had gone for breakfast.
“Go have your meal, I’ll take over.” Zhou Yuan said naturally.
“Okay.” The care worker got up and left.
Zhou Yuan sat down at the computer, holding the mouse to check the hospital records, searching for the false name he had invented. The information was still there.
The personal information had a “status” column, currently marked as “hospitalized.” If he could change it to “discharged,” he could escape the horror rule and leave the mental hospital.
Clicking the mouse a few times, Zhou Yuan found he couldn’t change the status; only the computer in the director’s office had the authority.
Suddenly, the chat software in the bottom right corner of the screen blinked. Moving the cursor over, he saw an @all-members message.
Director: @all-members, meeting in the conference room at 2 pm. Don’t be late.
A string of “Got it” followed.
“A meeting…”
Stroking his chin, Zhou Yuan pondered, Maybe I could turn the conference room into a slaughterhouse, killing all the doctors?
Or maybe skin the director alive and take his place; that would make accessing the director’s office easier?
As Zhou Yuan’s mind raced, his phone suddenly buzzed in his pocket.
It was Chen Guangxi calling.
She’s awake? Zhou Yuan hurriedly answered.
“Come find me…” Chen Guangxi’s voice was weak.
