Bab 59: Chapter 59: The Tempting Female Nurse
Chapter 59: The Tempting Female Nurse
In the past week,
Lin Ye visited Chiba City Hospital for the second time.
Over the span of four days, the man, Kenji Hirano, who had been possessed by a strange entity, had already been discharged. The two individuals severely injured in the Chiba Station fire were in different conditions: one, with relatively lighter injuries, had regained consciousness and was transferred to a regular ward, while the other, who was in critical condition, remained in the ICU under close monitoring.
According to the information Lin Ye gathered from the medical staff, the severely injured person had little chance of survival. Vital signs were weakening, and it was likely that they wouldn't make it through the next two days.
However, Lin Ye still hadn't triggered the game task he was hoping for.
In the lobby on the first floor,
Lin Ye sat in a quiet corner, silently contemplating.
"Could I have misjudged?"
Had connecting the strange occurrences with the fire, just based on the possessed man's appearance and the photos from the news, been too far-fetched?
Lin Ye rubbed his chin, still feeling confident that his analysis was correct.
"Maybe it's just a matter of probability!"
"Not every person will trigger a strange event."
With this thought, Lin Ye stood up. The antiseptic smell in the air wasn't particularly pleasant, and he decided it was best to return to his apartment, read some books, and rest.
Tomorrow was Saturday, which would give him time to familiarize himself with Chiba City.
As Lin Ye stood up, he noticed several young female nurses in their uniforms walking by in the lobby, chatting amongst themselves.
"I'm so exhausted these past few days,"
"Finally, I get a good rest. A day and a half off, ahhh, so happy!"
One of the young women in a pink nurse uniform wore a relieved expression. The intense overtime work had pushed her to her limits, and she was in desperate need of a break to recover.
"I envy you, Ren-chan."
"You just had time off last week. What's there to envy? I'm still stuck in the ICU, so busy..."
"But your salary is higher!"
"I don't care about the salary."
As the nurses continued their banter, they passed by Lin Ye.
A slight smile slowly appeared on Lin Ye's calm face.
"My analysis and judgment are correct."
[Ding!]
[Detecting strong strange energy emanating from a nearby person.]
[Task conditions have been met.]
[Task initiated.]
[Task Name: Rampage.]
[Task Type: Real-world Routine.]
[Task Objective: Ensure the person's life safety.]
[Accept?]
[If no response within five seconds, the task will be automatically declined.]
…
The game prompt sounded just as the group of female nurses walked closer.
Among the three nurses, one of them had a strong aura of strangeness attached to her. Lin Ye could rule out the nurse who had been working in the ICU recently, so the remaining two were the only possibilities.
"It's her."
However, from the task's description, Lin Ye realized that the female nurse wasn't possessed by a strange entity, but merely carried a strong aura of strangeness.
This was likely to attract strange entities.
With that thought, Lin Ye decided to follow her.
He couldn't afford to lose her.
Using his time-stop ability, Lin Ye entered the nurse's changing room. By coincidence, the three nurses were in the middle of changing clothes. Their seductive lingerie revealed large patches of smooth, white skin, giving off an alluring vibe.
An irresistible, crime-inducing posture.
Lin Ye quickly left and returned to his original position, deactivating time-stop.
"Truly, being a nurse, the uniform does add to the attraction."
He muttered this comment to himself, suppressing any further thoughts.
A few minutes later, the three nurses came out, walking together.
Lin Ye initially thought they would head straight to the train station, but at the hospital gate, the group broke off, and Lin Ye followed the one nurse who was heading in a different direction.
Tap tap...
The soft sound of footsteps echoed as the nurse walked alone.
The nurse, Ren Nanase, worked in the ICU of the city hospital, and her job pressure was immense. Despite being very busy, she occasionally had to deal with advances and confessions from men. She had chosen to work in the ICU to avoid such distractions, though the results weren't entirely successful.
Hoo...
"Tomorrow and the day after, I can finally rest."
Just thinking about getting a good night's sleep made her feel a sense of relief.
However, suddenly,
Ren Nanase turned around, her gaze scanning the area ahead. There was no one in sight.
"Was that just an illusion?"
She had the distinct feeling that someone was following her.
"I heard there was a recent incident involving the kidnapping of young women in Chiba..."
Her anxiety grew, and she quickened her pace.
A few times, Ren Nanase turned to check behind her but saw no one. She began to convince herself that she was just overthinking it.
Then, as she turned back around, she suddenly jumped and came to a sudden stop.
She had almost collided with a man in front of her.
"Sorry, really sorry!"
She quickly bowed her head in apology.
"Apologizing? You almost bumped into me!"
The man, who looked rough around the edges, scanned her up and down with an impolite look in his eyes.
"Miss, if you want me to forgive you, it's simple—just join me and my buddies for a meal. What do you think?"
Ren Nanase realized there were two more men behind him.
By their clothes, they looked like delinquents.
Ren Nanase instinctively took a step back, trying to create some distance, but the delinquents didn't intend to let the beautiful girl go.
"How about having a drink with us?"
"We won't hurt you, I promise."
…
Ren Nanase felt even more uncomfortable. Why was she running into this kind of trouble today?
She immediately turned around and tried to run, but the delinquents were faster, blocking her path.
She was surrounded.
"Hey..."
At this moment, Lin Ye appeared.
He looked at the three delinquents and couldn't help but wonder.
Was this the kind of crisis that the nurse had to face? It didn't seem related to anything strange at all.
"Kid, don't interfere in other people's business,"
"Playing the hero? Let's see if you've got the guts."
…
The odds were three against one, and the advantage was theirs!
However, seeing that Lin Ye wasn't backing down, the closest delinquent immediately swung his fist.
Thud...
"Ahhh..."
The delinquent bent over, clutching his stomach and crying out in pain.
The other two looked furious, their eyes filled with anger.
"Die, kid!"
One of them even pulled out a knife.
But in the blink of an eye, both of them were on the ground, crying out in pain like pigs being slaughtered.
Ren Nanase realized that she had been saved.
She smiled at Lin Ye.
"Thank you..."
But as soon as she spoke, her expression changed. She recognized him. Wasn't he the masked man she had seen in the hospital lobby?
Why was he here?
Subconsciously,
Ren Nanase turned around and started running.
Lin Ye froze for a moment.
At that instant, Ren Nanase saw the 18 bus slowly approaching the stop. She quickened her pace and boarded the bus, feeling safe.
The stalker was behind her!
But… was there even a stop for the 18 bus here?
