Chapter 449 - 447: The Cleaning Lady
"Old Fu, watch out behind you!"
Group Leader Xu suddenly shouted.
Upon hearing this, Captain Fu quickly turned around and discovered a person standing behind him out of nowhere.
And this person wasn’t anyone else but the nurse who was earlier lying asleep on the reception desk.
"Why is it her?"
Captain Fu hurriedly stepped back several paces.
When he got a clear look at the nurse’s face, he was momentarily stunned.
Because this nurse was none other than Nurse Chief Lin, who had stayed back at their original position!
"Heh heh..."
Nurse Chief Lin let out a strange laugh.
Then she extended both hands, her sharp fingernails piercing directly into her head, and then she pulled it out forcefully like pulling out a radish...
"Crack... crack..."
A tooth-aching sound rang out as Nurse Chief Lin shockingly pulled her own head off her body, with a trail of white spine still attached.
But after pulling off her head, Nurse Chief Lin seemed to regain some normalcy.
Tears of blood fell from her eyes, pleadingly looking at Tie Xiong and the others, she cried out in despair, "Help me... help me..."
As soon as she finished speaking, her body, holding her own head, walked toward the wall, slowly passing through it and disappearing from everyone’s sight.
This scene utterly frightened the five people present.
Even Tie Xiong was left momentarily dazed and scared.
On Nurse Chief Lin, he hadn’t sensed any special aura, as if the head was indeed pulled off by her own hands.
But everyone knew, how could a normal person possibly pull off their own head?
So he was almost certain that the mastermind’s power was entirely beyond him.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been unable to sense anything.
Group Leader Xu swallowed hard.
He felt that coming to Hemei Hospital tonight seemed like a mistake.
Originally, they thought it was just a minor ghost issue, with the expert Tie Xiong from the special action team, it should have been easily handled.
But now it seemed, all they experienced tonight, how could it be the work of a minor ghost?
This much was clear from Song Feifei being snatched by ghostly hands.
"Could it be that the people who stayed in the first-floor lobby have also encountered trouble?"
"Otherwise, why would Nurse Chief Lin suddenly appear here?"
"And... pulled off her own head?"
Li Xun frowned tightly, speaking in a deep voice.
"Should we go back and check it out?"
Captain Fu thought for a moment and suggested.
"No! We can’t go back anymore!"
"Look at the way we came from..."
Tie Xiong shook his head and said.
Captain Fu and Group Leader Xu immediately looked in the direction he indicated, and they were both dumbfounded.
Damn!
The stairs from before?
Why had they all turned into walls?
"Let’s go! Keep moving forward and see if we can encounter the mastermind!"
Tie Xiong took the lead, directly stepping onto the stairs and continued to climb upwards.
As for why they didn’t take the elevator?
Come on, who takes an elevator in a haunted place?
This was the wisdom he had gained from watching over a hundred horror and supernatural films.
Li Xun and Tie Shanshan, without any hesitation, followed him.
"Sigh!"
Captain Fu and Group Leader Xu exchanged glances and sighed helplessly.
Given the current situation, who knew what might happen if they stayed here.
They might as well continue to follow Tie Xiong!
The group of five abandoned the idea of investigating where Song Feifei disappeared, instead choosing to ascend to the third floor via the stairs.
Upon reaching the third floor, they found it extremely quiet, without the slightest noise.
Given what had happened with Nurse Chief Lin earlier, Li Xun and the others followed closely, sticking right beside Tie Xiong.
"Dad, there’s someone there!"
Tie Shanshan scanned the area and pointed to a corner on their right.
There, a cleaning lady in a janitor uniform was facing away from them, mopping the floor slowly.
However, no matter how she mopped, she couldn’t clean it, as the mop was covered in blood...
The more she wiped, the blurrier it became, and the more frightening.
"Seeing someone here, they probably aren’t normal, right?"
Group Leader Xu whispered.
"Let me test it out!"
Li Xun took off one of his shoes and threw it at the janitor.
The young man’s aim was precise; it hit the janitor lady directly on the head.
After being hit, the janitor lady slowly turned around.
"Damn!"
When she turned around, Li Xun couldn’t help but curse.
The janitor appeared very ordinary, with a common physique, just an average person you’d find anywhere.
However, her appearance here meant she wasn’t ordinary.
For example, the janitor’s abdomen had split open into a massive gap, like a large, gaping mouth.
Those severed intestines dragged on the floor, resembling tentacles.
Most disturbingly, these tentacle-like intestines wrapped around a person, dragging them into that gaping mouth-like abdomen bit by bit.
While they were stunned, only the person’s head was left outside.
"Help... help me..."
The person weakly cried for help.
When he used up his last bit of strength to lift his head, the five of them were struck dumb.
"Zhao... Zhao?"
Captain Fu’s eyes widened instantly.
The person being swallowed was none other than Zhao, who came to Hemei Hospital with Captain Fu!
At this moment, Zhao was pale, in extreme pain, and his voice exceedingly feeble.
"Group Leader Tie, please help save Zhao!"
Captain Fu quickly pleaded with Tie Xiong.
"Don’t worry, I’ll save him now!"
Without hesitation, Tie Xiong turned the Evil Ghost statue toward the janitor lady.
As he chanted, a red beam shot from the statue and entered the janitor’s mouth and nose.
"Thump!"
The janitor lady’s body collapsed onto the ground directly.
The tentacle-like intestines seemed to lose life, dropping limply to the floor.
"Li, come and help!"
Seeing this, Tie Xiong casually tucked the Evil Ghost statue into his waist and beckoned Li Xun to join in.
Looking at the bloody, slimy intestines, Li Xun felt a pang of nausea.
But he still steeled himself, following Tie Xiong’s lead, moving to the janitor lady’s side.
Tie Xiong bent down, grabbed Zhao’s clothes, and pulled forcefully.
Despite his great strength, due to the tightly wound intestines, he only managed to free Zhao up to his chest.
Li Xun quickly took out the knife he carried, cutting through the intestines wrapped around Zhao one by one.
"Everyone, pull together!"
Captain Fu and Group Leader Xu also rushed up to assist Tie Xiong in pulling Zhao out.
Through their combined effort, they finally pulled Zhao out of the janitor lady’s abdomen.
"Group Leader Tie, what’s happening to Zhao?"
Captain Fu checked Zhao’s condition, finding him barely breathing and seemingly on the brink of death.
