Chapter 130
Before arriving, the guests had received information that: This hospital ostensibly treats patients, but in fact sells organs. After a high incidence of patient deaths overnight, the doctors and nurses all disappeared without a trace.
After arriving, through the diaries in the wards, everyone understood that the hospital claimed some patients had been discharged, but in fact they had not. They likely became monsters.
Therefore, it's not hard to guess that the hospital may have been doing secret experiments, using patients as experimental subjects. As a result, it created a bunch of strange things, leading to some dying, some mutating.
But Cao Yu compared the medical records and found all the patients were related to an exploded chemical factory.
The plot suddenly became convoluted.
"Was the hospital good or bad?" Jiang Baiyan mumbled, "Very strange."
Jian Jing picked up other materials on the table and flipped through them, saying: "It looks like the hospital was researching and observing those infected patients. Look, there are a lot of medical reports here."
Compared to the medical records Cao Yu obtained earlier, these reports were more complete, with blood tests, X-rays, and medication records. If the hospital had created monsters, there should be experimental records.
"Let's go check other rooms." Jian Jing didn't want to stay with the rats and was eager to leave.
The door to the underground lab was unlocked. They quickly entered the corridor.
A new map was unlocked.
The long, creepy corridor had many locked iron doors on both sides. Each door had a different lock, one was like a safe dial, one was a long horizontal bar, and another was a square grid.
"Passwords, equations, sudoku..." Jian Jing was puzzled, "More math problems."
She thought for a moment and chose the safe dial first.
Like an old safe, the dial had 10 digits from 0-9. The password was entered by turning the dial.
2-3-18-1.
It opened.
Jiang Baiyan: "???"
He was very confused: "Did I time travel an hour into the future?"

"It's the letter order of bcra," Jian Jing explained.
Jiang Baiyan was still confused: "Is there such a word?"
She said, "Recall the only password we've had today."
Jiang Baiyan tilted his head to think, then realized: "The blood words in the ward?"
When their group started the game, the first ward they were in had the blood words "Qrivy" on the wall. Jian Jing said it was a Caesar cipher, shifted by 13 places, decoded as "Devil."
Following this rule, decoding bcra would be...
"Oh, open," he got it, "How did you guess?"
"Since the police took photos, it means he must have been to the underground lab," Jian Jing explained. "If he had already gone mad, how could he write the encoded word? This is more like a hint, in case someone found it. I felt it was very likely a password hint, so I tried it."
As she spoke, she shrugged: "Actually I thought of Noah's Ark first, but I'm not good at spelling it, so I just tried something simple."

"Where did you go, Teacher Cao?"
Cao Yu smiled bitterly: "Went the wrong way, ended up upstairs. Didn't see you guys so came back." As he spoke, he peered inside.
This was an office. There was a safe on the desk, clearly containing important clues. But between the office desk and door was a reception area.
Two sofas were placed opposite each other, with a coffee table in between.
On the coffee table was an international chess set.
The sofa against the wall was empty, a damaged bloodstained white lab coat lay there. On the opposite sofa sat a hulking monster, with shredded meat and bone fragments scattered around its feet.
Ugh, all signs indicated this monster had eaten the owner of the lab coat.
"This is also a special patient," Jian Jing thought for a moment and determined. "Regular monsters have iron plates, Helen's was copper, and numbered 002. He's 001."
Han Bo's scalp exploded: "So we have to play chess?"
"Yes," she nodded. "This should be George."
"What happens if we lose?" Coco asked.
Jian Jing: "Get eaten."
Everyone felt a chill, exchanging looks: "Who knows how to play international chess?"
Cao Yu smiled bitterly again: "I know a little."
"It's up to Teacher Cao then," everyone tacitly made way.
Cao Yu naturally wouldn't miss a chance to show off. He took a deep breath and slowly went to sit on the sofa.
The monster had no reaction.
Until Cao Yu picked up a chess piece and placed it on the board.
The monster moved. Its tendrils writhed as if pondering, then two tendrils pinched a chess piece and placed it in position.
While the monster was completely focused on the game, Jian Jing crouched low and silently slipped past the sofa into the office area. She quickly scanned the desk, planning to open the safe first.
To her surprise, the safe was empty.
The lock was open, and the door opened with a pull, but inside was empty. She was stunned for a moment, seeing Cao Yu's game still in progress, and simply flipped through the scattered documents first.
The amount of information here was much more.
She saw on the table an unfinished letter, the content of which was as follows:
"Dear friend, when you receive this letter, I may already be gone from this world. Things happened much faster than I imagined, and I regret very much not knowing whether it was right or wrong to agree to join the X Club back then. Unfortunately, no matter the answer, there is no chance to choose again.
"Let me tell you what's going on with the letter I sent you earlier. You graduated the same year as me, with grades at Harvard even better than mine. You must have already guessed, right?
"Yes, the report I showed you was very special, belonging to a group of special patients. I don't know if you've heard the rumors in this state, about the special visitors who arrive on a certain night... I thought it was nonsense, until the X Company found me. Oh yes, you still don't know about the X Club, it's a special club funded by a group of tycoons, with the sole mission of pursuing the truth...
"Because of my medical talents, I was recruited into the medical department, responsible for investigating C Factory. You may not have heard of this company's name, it's so ordinary that even people living nearby can't remember what it's called, let alone what they do there.
"A place so mysterious, of course, is not ordinary. This is a secret government base, recruiting some locals as cover. But according to the club's intelligence, this is precisely the place where the rumors of researching alien visitors is happening!"
The handwritten letter had sloppy penmanship, clearly the writer was shaken and unable to remain calm.
But Jianjing saw this and could only think of one big "embarrassing".
This is such a stereotypical haunted house story for Country A.
She turned the page and continued reading.
"We couldn't sneak into the factory to investigate, and could only observe from the outskirts, waiting for a chance. Unexpectedly, the accident happened, the factory had an unexplained explosion, with many casualties. Relevant personnel were all taken away by the FBI, but a small number of peripheral staff left as cover were kept. Many unbelievable symptoms appeared on them.
"We gathered them at the hospital, using treatment as an excuse to observe their changes. First, the white blood cells in their blood increased dramatically... (omit a bunch of medical descriptions), their organs began deteriorating, seemingly already completely occupied by cancer cells, dividing so quickly... Perception of sounds and smells decreased, resolution of light perception greatly increased...
"Everything was going very smoothly at first, but just half a month ago, something terrifying happened... they began dying, mutating, devouring... the infection was complete... I don't know how to deal with the current situation... they've already become them?"
The second page ends here.
The third page was not finished, with only a few scribbled words:
End... kill... must... urgent... replacement... invasion plan?
