Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 43 - 40: Horror Hospital 8 (Triggered Side Quest)
Josh sidled up to her ingratiatingly, "It’s just boring, and I wanted to chat with Grandma."
The white cat sighed a bit helplessly, "You little ones are just brimming with energy."
Josh came closer, curiously saying, "I was just talking to an American Shorthair brother. He said he doesn’t know why we have to take humans as slaves. But my human slave treats me very well, and I want to be friends with him. I hope he gets better soon..."
"Stop your dangerous thinking!" the white cat grandma quickly reprimanded, cutting her off, "A slave is a slave, they can never become our friends! Remember that!"
"But why?" Josh looked innocently at grandma, "My human slave really treats me well. He got sick taking care of me, and I don’t want him to die."
The white cat seemed unwilling to say more, just gazing at her expressionlessly, "Anyway, don’t think about making friends with humans. As for his illness, don’t worry, no cat hospital can’t heal it. Your human slave definitely won’t die."
"Is that so..." Josh nodded thoughtfully, "Is this hospital that amazing?"
The white cat raised her head proudly, "Of course, after all, this hospital was founded by Dean Hart!"
Dean Hart?
Isn’t that the owner of the office they broke into last night?
Josh quickly asked, "Who is Dean Hart? Is he amazing?"
The white cat saw her young age and didn’t blame her ignorance, patiently explaining, "Dean Hart is the great hero who led the Cat Clan to overthrow human rule."
Seeing Josh still looking puzzled, she shook her head, "Ignorant little one, you really should have your human slave read the history of the hospital’s founding to you."
Josh scratched her head, "But my human slave knows nothing. How can I find the history of the hospital’s founding?"
The white cat lovingly patted her on the head, "Go to the first-floor front desk and ask a nurse for a copy. If Miss Uffemia is smiling, it means she’s in a very bad mood, so don’t talk to her then~"
Josh nodded, "I understand, thank you, Grandma!"
The white cat nodded with a smile and returned to her ward.
Josh struck up conversations with a few other cats and found they all said pretty much the same thing.
To learn about the Horror Hospital and the dean, she’ll need to get an introduction booklet from the first-floor front desk.
She returned to the ward, just as Yuze also came back.
The two shared clues in the group and found their results were similar.
To find the dean and learn about him, the first step is to go to the first floor and get an introduction booklet.
It was almost 7 o’clock.
The two decided to wait for the Cat Nurse to deliver meals before going.
o’clock.
The Cat Nurse came in with meals right on time.
Breakfast was a small cup of milk, half a shrimp, a small piece of love-shaped pumpkin, and a small bowl of mushy green porridge.
Yuze disdainfully glanced at these things, "I’m a VIP ward patient, right? Nurse sister, all you give me is a bit of milk and shrimp?"
The Cat Nurse gave him a puzzled look, "This is goat milk, and all of these are for your cat master. This is your food."
She pointed at the bowl of green stuff.
Yuze: "..."
The Cat Nurse poured the fresh, warm goat milk into a small bowl for the cat, shredded the shrimp into small pieces and soaked them in the milk, and placed the love-shaped pumpkin beside it.
Josh was satisfied.
Finally, some food for her.
This nurse sister is really nice.
Josh affectionately rubbed against the Cat Nurse’s leg, "Meow~"
The soft sound from the little kitty’s mouth was particularly endearing.
[Ding! Gained 10 affection points from Nurse Qianqian, unlocked the side quest "Help me stop that insane father of mine!", current side quest count: 0.]
Josh gave an unexpected look at the nurse named Qianqian.
She rubbed against the nurse’s leg again, but no further affection points were gained.
Qianqian affectionately nudged her back toward the small bowl with a gentle smile, "Go ahead and eat! The goat milk is getting cold."
Josh nodded and was about to lower her head to drink the milk when she suddenly heard a strange voice.
[What a cute little kitty, it would be so exciting to drown it by pressing its head into the goat milk.]
Josh looked up in surprise at Qianqian.
But Qianqian was still smiling gently and asked softly, "What’s the matter?"
Josh saw words appear above Qianqian’s head, along with an echoing voice: [Such an innocently cute expression, I really want to burn it to death!]
Josh: "..."
She knew this hospital wasn’t simple.
Josh looked toward Yuze’s direction. He was also looking over here but didn’t seem to notice anything unusual.
She withdrew her gaze and obediently drank the milk.
With Yuze nearby, things shouldn’t go too wrong.
After finishing her meal.
Josh stood on the scale and found she gained 0.01g.
Qianqian finally showed a somewhat pleasant expression to Yuze, recording the data in a notebook, "Not bad, the VIP ward residency is extended by one night."
After the nurse left, Josh messaged Yuze in the group, [Did you hear the nurse’s thoughts just now?]
Yuze: [No, did you trigger a side quest?]
Josh: [Yes, I have another side quest.]
Yuze: [After unlocking affection and triggering a side quest, there’s a chance to hear an NPC’s thoughts, which are clues to help with the quest.]
[But be cautious; some cunning NPCs may intentionally release false information to confuse players. You’ll need to discern the authenticity of this information.]
Josh nodded knowingly.
So that’s how it is.
Advanced levels and novice levels are indeed different.
Yushi: [I also triggered a side quest from Uffemia at the front desk. Her lover is missing, and I need to help her find him.]
Yushi mentioned Josh: [Little Tactician, what’s yours?]
So the team shares side quest content?
That she didn’t know.
She wasn’t sure if Yushi was subtly telling her side quests are shared in the team, but she was touched by his subtle gesture.
Josh also shared her side quest: [My side quest is to help her stop her insane father. But it doesn’t say who her father is or what to stop. Qianqian’s mind was just full of thoughts of wanting to torment me.]
Yuze: [Yushi, meet at the front desk on the first floor.]
Yushi: [Roger that.]
Josh and Yuze made it to the lobby downstairs.
Yushi quietly appeared next to them, his heavy hair covering most of his face, and there was even a small tuft of long hair at the back almost reaching his calves.
A very typical manga hairstyle.
Josh looked at him curiously, unsure if he could see the road clearly like that.
