Chapter 103: Gu Meng Appears, No Lies Allowed

Fragments of the drawing paper scattered across the floor.

The Supernatural Infant crawled around Ji Yan like a giant spider.

"Hehehe!"

Perched atop his head, its small, grayish hands tugged at his hair, its playful nature driving it to tease him further.

From the tangled strands, a flash of red shot out. Before the Supernatural Infant could react, the Blood-Stained Paper Figure erupted with Specter Power, sending its head flying off its shoulders.

The Snake Player paled in shock.

"What’s in your hair?"

A smirk played on Ji Yan’s lips. "My personal bodyguard."

The Snake Player tensed, ready to confront the Blood-Stained Paper Figure, only to see it yawn exaggeratedly before darting back into the strands of hair.

It hadn’t even glanced at Ji Yan.

Clearly, it had only emerged to punish the Supernatural Infant for disturbing its nap before returning to sleep.

Ji Yan: "..."

The Snake Player caught on, her lips curling into a mocking smile. "Seems your bodyguard’s a bit rebellious, huh?"

Indeed, a rebellious little brat...

The headless body of the Supernatural Infant patted its empty neck before hopping down, quickly retrieving its head and reattaching it.

"Enough games—eat him!"

The Snake Player’s patience had run out.

She, too, was after the Lies Parchment.

For this unique Supernatural Artifact to "drop," Ji Yan had to be killed by a Supernatural Entity while using it. Any other form of death would cause the parchment to vanish along with him.

Hearing its mother’s scolding, the Supernatural Infant whimpered with resentment before redirecting its fury toward Ji Yan.

Ji Yan noticed but at that moment, a familiar scent reached his nose—one that belonged only to the patients he had treated.

He eyed the Supernatural Infant. "Naughty brats get punished."

The infant bared its fangs.

Just as it lunged, it froze mid-motion.

The Supernatural Pregnant Woman on the surgery bed fell silent.

Even the unborn Supernatural Infant sibling shrank back inside...

"What’s happening?"

The Snake Player stiffened in confusion.

Ji Yan stared at her shadow and said, "Why not check your own shadow?"

She turned to look.

The shadow connected to her heels suddenly detached.

Under their collective gaze, it expanded, morphing into a towering figure with hair standing on end.

The flowing strands split apart, transforming into countless shadowy Supernatural Creatures with flickering tongues and crimson eyes, their eerie forms reflected on the walls.

The Snake Player’s grip on Ji Yan loosened.

The moment she released him, Ji Yan collapsed to the ground while she floated into the air, suspended by an unseen force.

A towering figure, reminiscent of the legendary "Eight-Foot Tall Woman," materialized—Gu Meng!

But now, she looked exactly as she did in the drawing: her features twisted into something sinister, her hair rising in clusters that morphed into slender black snakes, mirroring Medusa.

With one hand, she lifted the Snake Player by the throat, her crimson lips curling. "Where did this little snake come from?"

"Did you tear apart the drawing I gave the Goat Doctor?"

The Snake Player’s expression darkened.

He spoke in a low voice, "If I recall correctly, you're a patient from the Consultation Building. Trespassing into the Emergency Building—didn’t you know you’ve already broken the hospital’s rules?"

Gu Meng blinked her beautiful eyes. "My condition worsened, and I was transferred to the Emergency Building yesterday. Didn’t you know, Doctor?"

The Snake Player subtly hid one hand behind her back, still trying to catch her in a misstep. "Even so, this is another patient’s ward."

"This is a personal matter between me and the Goat Doctor. As a patient, you shouldn’t interfere."

Gu Meng’s smile deepened, carrying a dangerous edge. "Doctor, you tore up my drawing."

"Didn’t you know how important that drawing was to me? It was the most precious gift I gave to the Goat Doctor."

"That was the Supernatural Infant who tore it. Just strangle it if you want—has nothing to do with me."

Without hesitation, the Snake Player sold off her newly "adopted" Supernatural Infant.

Ji Yan lay on the ground. Thanks to the operation of his Supernatural Organs, the snake venom from the scalpel was gradually being expelled, and his body was slowly regaining sensation.

He looked at Gu Meng and quickly spoke up, "Gu Meng, kill the Supernatural Infant. I have questions for the Snake Doctor..."

Gu Meng gazed down at Ji Yan with a slow, chilling smile. "But, Doctor Snake seems intent on killing me, no?"

"Otherwise, why would she hide one hand behind her back?"

The Snake Player’s expression changed, but before she could react, Gu Meng’s delicate hand moved slightly—and with a crisp snap, she twisted the slender neck.

Blood spilled from the Snake Player’s mouth as she collapsed to the ground, eyes wide, instantly "logged off."

Just like that—swift and brutal.

Ji Yan sighed helplessly. He hadn’t even gotten to ask his questions yet.

Seeing its "mother" killed, the Supernatural Infant immediately went berserk. Ignoring Gu Meng’s terrifying presence, it lunged at her—proof that the Snake Player’s "incubation" had tamed the Supernatural Entity into absolute loyalty.

But it was futile.

Before the Supernatural Infant could even touch Gu Meng, her raised hand flicked out, slamming it against the wall. It exploded into a bloody pulp, smearing across the surface...

Ji Yan’s eyes widened slightly.

Gu Meng’s combat prowess was terrifying—far surpassing even Liu Yan’s level!

But then again, considering she was originally a patient from the Emergency Building, this strength was to be expected.

As the snake venom faded, Ji Yan pushed himself up.

"Miss Gu, thank goodness you arrived in time."

Gu Meng remained silent, her cold gaze fixed on the scattered scraps on the floor.

"Goat Doctor, it seems you didn’t value the drawing paper I gave you very much."

Hearing this, Ji Yan’s expression turned solemn. "Miss Gu, I treasure every gift my patients give me."

"That little Supernatural brat stole my drawing paper. I fought desperately to get it back, but I was powerless—forced to watch as it was torn to pieces."

"Seeing the drawing paper shredded and scattered... it shattered my heart just the same!"

Gu Meng stared at Ji Yan’s face, her smile ghostly. "Goat Doctor, your acting is just like your lies."

"Equally fake."

Ji Yan pretended not to hear.

Surviving in an Instance required some acting skills and silver-tongued deception—otherwise, you’d be long dead.

The Ghostly Nurse, who had been lying low like a roadside pebble, finally rushed over in a panic. "Teacher, are you alright?"

Ji Yan smirked. "Oh? Done watching the show?"

"Teacher, I wanted to help, but my injuries from the patient left me unable to stand."

The Ghostly Nurse supported Ji Yan as he steadied himself.

But Ji Yan's hand suddenly tightened its grip on the Ghostly Nurse.

His eyes gradually turned sharp.

He looked at her with a half-smile. "Since we have some free time now, let me ask you a simple question."

The Ghostly Nurse replied, "Teacher, I'll answer whatever you ask, as long as I know."

"Were you sent by the Dragon Doctor to monitor me?"

The Ghostly Nurse froze in silence.

It was as if a game character had suddenly glitched.

"Oh? This is getting juicy." Gu Meng, resting her chin on her hand, watched the exchange with great interest.

The Ghostly Nurse hadn't expected Ji Yan to throw out such a question so abruptly.

After stiffening for a second, she regained her composure. "Teacher, I was assigned by the hospital according to protocol. As for who the Dragon Doctor is, I... I..."

Her words trailed off.

It was as if her throat had been squeezed—the words "I don’t know" simply couldn't come out.

She smelled a trap!

She couldn’t lie!!
