I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

Chapter 258 The Rooftop of the Sanatorium

Back in the ward, the clock in the room showed exactly half past eleven.

Gu Chaoxi walked to the bed and sat down. He Ran's notebook, which Pei Yan had given her, was now in her hand.

After thinking about it, I decided to put the notebook under my pillow.

She put her hands on the pillow and was in a daze for a while.

For some reason, she remembered what Xiao Hechuan had said, observer.

Most observers will be in a place that the players cannot go to, but is relatively close to the players, to observe and analyze the players' behavior.

This is probably the other world's attempt to better improve the current game, so where are the observers in the sanatorium?

Previously, Gu Chaoxi also thought that the observer might be in the shop opposite the gate.

After all, that was a place that players really couldn't reach, but now she felt that this person might be closer to them than she thought.

"0416, come out and get food."

When he heard the sound outside, Gu Chaoxi came back to his senses and walked out of the room with the lunch box.

The dishes in the big bowl have improved today, but they still look mediocre.

At least there was stir-fried pork with green peppers. She scooped some into the bowl, scooped some shredded potatoes, and carried the lunch box back to the room.

After closing the door, Gu Chaoxi walked to the bedside with the meal.

While eating, she looked down.

The locust tree was obviously very lush, and therefore blocked a lot of the view.

I looked around the entire yard. Since it was lunch time, there was no one in sight in the yard, so it seemed empty.

The yard has a cement floor. Although the technology may not have been very perfect at the time, it is much smoother than the dirt floor.

There was nothing else on the ground in the entire yard, not even a manhole cover.

She looked at the floors on all four sides and saw that most of the windows were closed.

Although I don't know from which direction the light is mainly coming, the closed windows all reflect some light.

Gu Chaoxi lowered his head, scooped a mouthful of rice and put it into his mouth. While chewing, he looked into the distance.

From her room, there was actually more to be seen than what was available.

There doesn't seem to be anything special on the roof except a row of fences.

With his eyes lowered, Gu Chaoxi picked up another portion of fried pork with peppers with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

The moment she turned around, she seemed to suddenly think of something.

Rooftop?

Wait, the rooftop?

Sitting down on the edge of the bed, Gu Chaoxi looked outside, unfocused.

The rules of the nursing home only state that one should stay on one's own floor and the first floor.

However, the rooftop didn’t seem to be mentioned.

Although the handwritten note said that activities were allowed only on the first floor and this floor, and no other places were allowed.

But the stairs themselves are a loophole. Because people need to go downstairs, they can move freely on the stairs.

In other words, even though Gu Chaoxi's room was on the fourth floor, she could climb the stairs.

Let’s not talk about whether the roof is a terrace-like place or a closed roof.

In short, you have to go up and take a look to find out what's going on.

Thinking of this, Gu Chaoxi quickly finished the rice in the bowl and walked towards the sink.

Jing Qiao appeared behind her at some point and looked at her eagerly.

"Coco, Coco... Can you play with me today?"

"No, I still have things to do." After she refused, she caught a glimpse of Jing Qiao's pitiful eyes.

After thinking for a while, she turned her head to look at him while wiping the dishes.

"Jing Qiao, do you know He Ran?"

If He Ran and Jing Li knew each other and had met each other many times, then Jing Qiao, the brother, should have also met He Ran, right?

After she finished speaking, Jing Qiao raised his hand and scratched his hair, as if he was thinking seriously.

But after a while, he looked at Gu Chaoxi and shook his head.

"Coco, I don't remember."

The confusion in his eyes didn't seem fake, it seemed like he really didn't remember.

Gu Chaoxi didn't say anything. He lowered his head to wash the lunch box in his hand, then picked it up and shook off the water on it.

Jing Qiao looked at her and lowered his head.

When she turned around and walked out of the sink, Jing Qiao followed her again.

"Jing Qiao, do you know if we can go up to the roof of the sanatorium?"

After hearing this, he seemed stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted: "Keke, you can't go."

It seems that the sanatorium really has a roof.

In this case, it shouldn't be a problem for her to just go and take a look.

Walking towards the room, Gu Chaoxi had a plan in mind.

After putting the bowl down and walking out of the room, Jing Qiao was still standing at the door. He seemed a little hesitant, but still stretched out his arms to block Gu Chaoxi's way.

"Keke, you can't go, don't go!"

His face was full of worry and his brows were furrowed, as if he had thought of something very bad.

But Gu Chaoxi just raised his hand to press his arm down, then smiled at him.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to the roof. I'm just standing on the stairs and taking a look."

After she finished speaking, she turned right and prepared to go up to the top of the stairs to take a look.

After walking a few steps, she heard footsteps from behind and knew that Jing Qiao was following her.

Since he insists on following me, then just follow me.

When he walked down the stairs to the sixth floor, Gu Chaoxi stopped.

The stairs leading to the rooftop are blocked by rows of crooked tables and chairs.

These tables and chairs were piled up in the corridor in a haphazard manner, and it was obvious that no one was intended to walk up there.

"There's absolutely no place to stay?"

Gu Chaoxi took a look, walked to the wall and turned his head to look upwards.

The two flights of stairs leading to the seventh floor were not illuminated by any lights, and as there seemed to be no windows, it seemed a little dim.

However, it was still possible to see clearly that except for the first section of stairs which were piled with tables and chairs, the second section was completely empty.

It just looks like there's a lot of dust accumulated on it.

It seems that no one has been up there for a long time.

She lowered her head again to look at the tables and chairs that were blocking her way. Although they were arranged so chaotically that it was impossible to use the stairs, it seemed possible to climb over them.

As soon as she thought of it, she took action immediately. She rolled up her sleeves and pretended to step on it.

Unfortunately, before his feet touched the table, his arms were pulled back.

Gu Chaoxi took two steps back and turned around to see Jing Qiao, who looked frightened.

"Why are you dragging me?"

He seemed like he was about to cry, and tremblingly pulled Gu Chaoxi back.

"Keke, please don't go. Someone jumped from there before. Please don't go."

"If they don't allow you to go, don't go."

So this is why the roof was sealed?

But she didn't want to jump off the building, she just wanted to take a look, just a glance.

"Jing Qiao, I'm just taking a look. I promise I won't do anything. I'll just open the door and take a look, and then we'll go downstairs."

As she finished her words, she saw another person walking towards her.

"Zhou Youyou, come and help."
