Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 78 - 75: Horror Hospital 42 (The Augustine Family’s Favoritism)
Yuze shared the clues he found on the computer with Josh.
The main story reached 60% progress, and they were able to unlock the map outside.
Code 7 silently followed behind them.
Yuze gave him a curious look and nudged Josh next to him with his shoulder: "How did you manage to coax him into coming over?"
Josh lowered his voice, "His mind is quite simple; he hasn’t interacted with people much, easy to coax, and I’m just doing a side mission."
Yuze squinted thoughtfully, "Does he listen to you?"
Josh looked at him weirdly, "What are you planning?"
Yuze rubbed his chin, "Not planning anything, why are you looking at me like that? I’m not some bad guy."
Josh gave him a once-over, "You might as well have ’ulterior motives’ written on your forehead."
Yuze chuckled, "Am I going to sell you out? I’m just thinking, since he’ll listen to you, we shouldn’t waste such a great free sparring partner."
Josh quickly understood his meaning, eyes lighting up, "You mean?"
Yuze grinned, "Exactly what you’re thinking."
Rob sidled up to Code 7, "Did you see the faces of those two?"
Code 7 nodded expressionlessly, "Saw them."
Rob patted his shoulder, "Remember, that’s the face of a typical villain, you need to be cautious. Don’t let them sell you and count their money."
Code 7 glanced in Josh’s direction, "She... doesn’t seem like a bad person."
Yushi nodded beside him, "Josh is not a bad person."
Rob’s mouth twitched, "You two sweet naïve ones."
Too lazy to argue with the naïve ones, he hurriedly caught up with Yuze and Josh, "Where are we going now?"
Josh said, "Going to the basement to meet up with Jiang Can, then leaving the hospital together."
Yuze first sent a message to Jiang Can in the group chat.
They reached the control room and opened Jiang Can’s pod door.
Jiang Can saw the message and quickly came out from the basement to join them.
Seeing Code 7 in the team, Jiang Can was momentarily stunned, "Why is he here too?"
Code 7 glanced at him and then looked away.
Jiang Can’s mouth twitched slightly, feeling that the other person didn’t seem to like him.
Without wasting any time, they headed straight to the hospital entrance.
During the day, the doors were generally open, with the security guard dozing inside, not looking in their direction.
Josh tentatively walked out and soon heard the system’s broadcast.
[Congratulations to player Josh for becoming the first player to unlock a new map. Other players, please keep trying.]
This announcement was for the entire instance.
Yuze and the others also received the notification. They followed, stepping out of the hospital doors, but the system didn’t broadcast again.
Inside the greenhouse pod.
Susan’s eyes gleamed with jealousy upon hearing the system prompt.
That bitch Josh!
She let her teammates trap her here like this.
And didn’t even show any intention of coming to rescue her!
Alright then, this little bitch.
She thinks joining some pathetic guild could put her underfoot?
Dared to toy with her like this!
Once she gets out of the game, she’ll have her parents scold that bitch thoroughly!
Make that bitch kneel before her and apologize!
Doesn’t she see her own status, raised on a Garbage Star, daring to challenge her in-game and bully her!
Susan opened the system’s bullet screen, seeing messages full of sympathy and pity.
[Poor Miss Susanna, what did she do wrong to be bullied like this?]
[Josh’s team is really heartless. Why make things difficult for a harmless healer like her?]
[Exactly, her team is gone, why not let her go? It’s absurd!]
[This Josh is really petty. You guys don’t know, she’s the real heiress of the Augustine family, just found and always envying the adopted daughter Susanna who grew up in the Augustine family.]
[Is that even true? That’s too mean.]
[This is the first I’ve heard of it, so they’re sisters? I thought Susanna was nice to her before. I assumed they were just acquaintances, never guessed such a nasty relationship.]
[This Josh... she’s really toxic, huh?]
The Augustine family members watching Susan’s live stream all had ugly expressions.
Glennan and Cherry looked especially displeased. They knew that letting Josh out would eventually tarnish the Augustine family’s reputation!
Look, disgraceful even in the game!
This is a nationwide broadcast the entire interstellar alliance will watch!
Now, the whole alliance knows that the genuine Augustine heiress grew up on the Garbage Star and is jealous of her family sister!
Cherry watched Susanna with a heartache, "Look at Josh! What is she doing? She knows Susanna is still trapped in the greenhouse pod and doesn’t rescue her! What’s going on in her head?"
Glennan’s face was equally grim, "That useless thing! Can’t think straight, as soon as she comes out of the game, I’ll call her back for a good lesson!"
The two elder brothers, Cromwell and Dalton, each with different expressions on their faces.
Cromwell looked at the screen with worry and urgency, "Can we find a way to contact Josh and ask her to rescue Susanna? My poor Susanna, where has she ever suffered like this since she was a child?"
Dalton darkened, a flash of anger in his eyes, "You must be joking? That venomous-hearted person willing to save Susanna? Clearly deliberate, wanting Susanna to suffer!"
Glennan stared at the livestream screen, determination flashing in his eyes, "I’ll arrange to buy some online supporters for Susanna, to boost her points for protection."
Inside the instance.
Josh and the team had unlocked a new map, reaching the human world.
But the outside world wasn’t as vast as they thought; there was merely an abandoned city across the hospital.
Somewhat apocalyptic, littered with abandoned buildings and vehicles, roads covered in leaves, garbage, and moss.
Occasionally, one or two people passed by, faces filled with fear, as if they’d never seen strangers before.
Josh wanted to find someone to ask about the situation, but most fled before she approached.
A few with more courage couldn’t withstand two seconds; once they spoke, they were scared away.
Yuze surveyed the ruined city, "This doesn’t look like a place where people can live."
Josh remained vigilant about their surroundings.
Suddenly, a group of fully armed men with weapons appeared and surrounded them.
Josh frowned slightly.
Yuze had already drawn his weapon, ready for a fight.
Josh quickly stopped him, "Wait!"
Feeling the threat, Code 7 couldn’t help but go into a defensive stance.
Josh had to restrain them, "Don’t act recklessly. On someone else’s turf, keep a low profile."
Yuze glanced at her, "Then you do it."
Josh turned to the leader, "Hello, we just entered this city and don’t know a thing."
The leader ignored her, calmly speaking into a radio, "Six unknown men found on 3rd Avenue. Get here quickly."
In no time, a crowd of people surrounded them.
The leader motioned coldly, "Take them all back to the Underground City."
"Yes!"
Josh and the others were escorted underground.
[Ding! Congratulations on successfully activating the main mission "Rescue the Underground City Residents."]
Everyone received the same system prompt.
Josh’s eyes flickered; she knew part of the main mission definitely wasn’t here.
Underneath the city, a new city was built.
The city’s ceiling was lined with numerous large lights, illuminating the entire Underground City.
