Chapter 126 Mirror-Rust "13"
Bai Yao rolled up his sleeves, looked at the rust stains that were almost spreading to his elbows, and took out a mirror in advance just in case!
I pressed the button for the fifth floor, but to my surprise, there was no response from the elevator.
It was like a computer crash, standing still on the fourth floor.
"No, buddy, why are you doing this to me at this time?"
Bai Yao's mouth twitched, and he kicked the elevator twice, but there was still no response.
"Tsk! If I can't take the elevator, can't I just take the stairs?"
Bai Yao sneered, shook his sleeves, and stepped out of the elevator.
After a while, Bai Yao, who couldn't find the stairs, walked into the elevator obediently...
"Fuck, how did they build this fifth floor without stairs?!"
Bai Yao cursed and pressed the button for the first floor.
The elevator started and began to move downward.
With a ding sound, the elevator door opened automatically.
The wooden floor was already covered with mottled rust.
A familiar shout sounded at the end of the corridor. Bai Yao did not go over, but slowly came to the door of Room 208.
This is the only bed that has never been visited. Bai Yao already has some guesses about what is inside.
Click——
As the door of the ward opened, a musty smell wafted out.
Just as Bai Yao expected, the name on the bedside was Wang Cuixia.
"Since Jiang Zhongmin is in the mirror world, Wang Cuixia should be there too. But why can't I see her?"
Bai Yao walked into the ward thoughtfully. Everything he saw was rusty, except Wang Cuixia's name tag, which was still as shiny as new.
"Who are you? Why are you in Ward 208?"
A hoarse and stiff voice sounded behind Bai Yao, a voice that Bai Yao was very familiar with!
Hospital nurse!
Bai Yao turned around and smiled gently: "Hello, I'm a community volunteer, and I came to the hospital to help."
The nurse's cold and ruthless voice tore apart Bai Yao's lies: "You are wearing a hospital gown, you are lying!"
Bai Yao was not panicked at all, and said with an expression that said you are ignorant: "How can you talk like that! This is the uniform of our volunteer team. It looks like this. It just happens to be a little bit similar to the ward in your hospital!"
"..."
The nurse looked confused. Whose volunteer uniform was made based on hospital gowns?
The psychiatric team?
But she didn't see any problem...
After thinking for a long time, the nurse nodded suspiciously, "In that case, come with me and help me move some things!"
After the nurse said this, the rust on the white demon's body began to fade at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon disappeared completely.
"call……"
Bai Yao breathed a sigh of relief, finally he managed to fool the person.
In fact, he could have just left.
But in order to avoid being chased by the nurse when I came in next time, I made up a reason on the spot.
I didn’t expect it to work.
And there is a surprise!
Although he didn't know whether this immunity to rust was a permanent buff, at least he now had time to continue exploring!
"Come with me."
The nurse turned and left, her stiff steps making dull thumping sounds on the rusty wooden floor.
The white demon followed closely behind, looking around.
The corridor was completely corroded by rust, and there was not a single spot in sight that was not covered with rust stains.
"What does this rust represent?"
In connection with Jiang Baimeng's illness, Bai Yao was certain that the mirror world and the rust must represent something.
But the clues are not complete yet and cannot be fully inferred.
Soon, the nurse took Bai Yao around several corners and came to a remote backyard.
In the backyard, there stood a person covered in rust...!
Like Wei Jin, the man in front of him had been completely rusted. Judging from his appearance, he should be an old man.
"Wang Cuixia?"
Bai Yao frowned. She was the only one he could think of!
If it is really her, things will be difficult, as it will be equivalent to missing a clue.
Judging from Wang Cuixia's actions, she should be calling someone.
Bai Yao guessed that her goal and Jiang Zhongmin’s should be the same, both were looking for Jiang Yueyin!
"Move her outside the hospital."
The nurse gave the order and Bai Yao had no choice but to start moving.
After picking up Wang Cuixia, they started to return the same way.
On the way back, the nurse left for something and let Bai Yao go by himself.
Seeing the nurse walking away, Bai Yao put Wang Cuixia down, used clothes to sweep away the rust stains, revealing Wang Cuixia's face.
"It is indeed her..."
Bai Yao sighed, feeling somewhat helpless.
There's no way, I'm a step late.
"If there are no clues, there must be something else, right?"
Bai Yao narrowed his eyes slightly and wiped off the rust stains on Wang Cuixia's clothes. Before the rust stains spread, Bai Yao reached his hand into Wang Cuixia's pocket.
After some searching, I finally found a mirror!
Then he repeated the same procedure and searched several other pockets.
Unfortunately, there is nothing.
"Forget it, forget it. It's better to have it than nothing!"
Bai Yao was not disappointed. He happily put the mirror away, carried Wang Cuixia on his back and walked to the end of the corridor.
Jiang Zhongmin's cries became clearer and clearer, and Bai Yao stopped in the waiting area.
In front of him, Jiang Zhongmin was standing there in a daze.
Staring at him intently.
To be precise, he was staring at Wang Cuixia!
Neither of them spoke, they just stood there in silence...
The rain continued and thunder exploded from time to time.
Jiang Zhongmin's sigh was clearly audible.
"Alas! It has come to this..."
Bai Yao carried Wang Cuixia to Jiang Zhongmin and then put her down.
Jiang Zhongmin, leaning on a cane, took two unsteady steps forward, raised his wrinkled hands, and gently stroked Wang Cuixia's rust-stained cheek.
As he raised his arms, his sleeves slipped off, and Bai Yao could see that Jiang Zhongmin's body was also rusted.
It's just that he rusts much slower than the player.
Hot tears rolled down his cloudy eyeballs. Jiang Zhongmin stammered and whispered softly, "Cuixia, thank you for your hard work over the years..."
As if by a miracle, Wang Cuixia's rusted body trembled slightly, as if responding to his words.
Jiang Zhongmin threw away his crutches, leaned over and hugged Wang Cuixia, but his arms were still some distance away from Wang Cuixia, as if he was afraid that if he used too much force, he would hurt her.
A vicissitudes of life voice sounded low:
"Cuixia, don't worry. I will definitely find Yueyin. She will definitely receive the gift we prepared for her..."
Bai Yao watched them chattering for a long time, and the words Jiang Yueyin and gift would pop up from time to time.
From now on, Jiang Zhongmin and Wang Cuixia are definitely husband and wife, and Jiang Yueyin is their granddaughter.
For some reason, Jiang Yueyin disappeared.
The two were looking for her and prepared a gift to give to Jiang Yueyin!
"What kind of gift will it be..."
