You Believe It

Xu Nian hid in a corner of the hospital, observing the movements around her.

How should she put it? Just now, she seemed to have felt a dangerous gaze, to the point where she felt a rapidly escalating sense of danger, blurring her vision.

So she quickly fanned herself with her folding fan, completing her disguise in the blink of an eye, disappearing from the spot.

Now, she was the mature, sexy fox-person doctor, Xu Nian.

Standard white coat uniform, a face full of intellectual beauty, a pair of red-framed glasses perched on her nose, and a beauty mark at the corner of her eye.

Having been a loli for three years since she transformed from a handsome male college student, she wasn’t quite used to being tall, and even the excess flesh on her chest was hindering her movements.

Was this the [Grace] disguise?

It seemed a bit too supermodel-like.

It was as if she had become a completely different person.

Touching it, there was a definite sense of reality.

Soft and squishy, like some kind of fermented dough when kneaded.

How did this flesh grow?

She didn’t understand.

Perhaps this was the mysterious power.

Why was Xu Nian doing this?

Because this seemed to be the most appropriate way for her subconscious to avoid danger.

She acted without hesitation, doing this as soon as she sensed danger.

But, she always felt a bit of incongruity.

Regardless, she should go see what was happening.

Just now, there seemed to be unusual, violent movements from the floors above, making her itch to go take a look.

Since changing her mindset and increasing her cheerfulness, Xu Nian always had the idea of joining in the fun.

Perhaps this was one of the characteristics of a Cheer Emotion User?

If another event like a plane crashing or something were to happen again, it was estimated that a bunch of fun-loving people from the Cheer pathway would be blown out.

But in fact, Xu Nian also knew that Su Qingya and the others were upstairs at this time.

“Excuse me, you seem to be a very unfamiliar face, not like a doctor here.”

A nurse suddenly approached, asking with a puzzled expression.

After all, Xu Nian was disguised as a doctor, was she too conspicuous in the hospital?

“Are you a new nurse? How come you don’t even recognize me?”

Xu Nian pretended to be serious, her words full of confidence.

Even her tone of voice had changed.

Just listening to her voice made people think that her chest was large, her figure was tall, and her words carried extreme gentleness.

“I, I’ve been working at this hospital for three years.”

“You’ve been here for three years and you don’t recognize me? Then it seems I really don’t have much of a presence.”

There was a hint of a faint smile in Xu Nian’s words, and the nurse’s expression faltered for a moment:

“Is that so? I’m sorry, it’s my fault. Well then, doctor, there’s a patient here, please come and help take a look.”

???

This involved Xu Nian’s blind spot of knowledge.

After all, she had only transformed into a doctor, not actually become one.

Even if she could use words to make others mistakenly believe that she was a doctor, she couldn’t actually treat people.

As she spoke, a parent, looking anxious, approached with his child.

“Doctor, please help me take a look, my child swallowed a piece of soap.”

“Soap?”

Xu Nian was shocked and turned to look at the nurse:

“As a nurse, you should have medical care knowledge, why don’t you take a look at him?”

“He said he’s not reassured.”

“That’s right, how can a nurse treat people? What if there’s a problem with the treatment?”

“How big of a piece did he swallow?”

“About this big, I guess.”

The parent gestured.

It was about a bit smaller than a dime.

Xu Nian pretended to think for a while.

“Drink more hot water.”

She said casually and gave the nurse next to her a hint, trying to get the other party to help her handle the follow-up.

Then she left without looking back.

The nurse didn’t say much.

As a result, the parent really found a cup of hot water.

Before going up the stairs, Xu Nian looked back and found that some colorful bubbles were floating up for some reason.

Having just followed the stairs upstairs, Xu Nian didn’t find any strange changes.

This time, unlike the amusement park at the beginning, it didn’t give strange prompts, and she didn’t have any simulation chances left.

She had to be careful, as careful as possible.

But for some reason, Xu Nian saw a little girl wearing a hospital gown.

The girl was standing quietly in a corridor, looking out the window, not knowing what she was looking at.

The people around her were walking by as if no one were there: doctors, nurses, patients, but not a single person approached her.

Even if they approached her, they would pass by as if she were nothing.

Xu Nian didn’t pay too much attention, she didn’t have the idea of meddling in other people’s business, she should just ignore it.

But looking at the girl’s lonely back, Xu Nian’s heart felt a little tug.

“Little sister, what’s wrong? Why are you here alone?”

She still went up and wanted to enlighten the other party’s mood.

The little girl didn’t react at first, until Xu Nian approached her side, then she realized that Xu Nian was talking to her.

The girl didn’t answer, just looked at Xu Nian.

Xu Nian also saw the girl’s aloofness.

She didn’t seem to know how to answer.

So, Xu Nian’s folding fan fluttered, and in a brief moment of blocking the other party’s sight, she conjured a fox doll.

“This is for you.”

The girl still didn’t answer, but Xu Nian didn’t care, her smile still on her face, and she stuffed the toy into the other party’s arms.

“Why, are you giving this to me?”

“Because you look very unhappy. Having a cute doll will definitely change your mood.”

Little girls should all like this kind of thing.

“Strange.”

The girl didn’t say much more, but she didn’t refuse either.

Xu Nian couldn’t tell whether the other party was happy or unhappy.

Well, finding Su Qingya was still more important.

But suddenly, just as Xu Nian turned around, she felt her clothes being tugged.

Turning her head, she found that the little girl was staring at her.

“Do you want me to play with you? Sorry, I have things to do.”

“Why?”

“Hmm?”

But in the end, the girl still let go of her hand, her eyes showing a different kind of grayness.

“Why am I always alone? No one wants to pay attention to me, no one wants to approach me.

Since you don’t want to have too much contact with me, why did you approach me?”

The girl murmured in a low voice.

Xu Nian vaguely heard some of the other party’s intermittent words.

Xu Nian had only acted out of compassion, wanting to make the child happy.

Was it that her method was wrong?

Why did it seem like the other party had been angered instead?

“I don’t need your pity.”

That’s not right!

A strong sense of crisis assaulted Xu Nian’s mind.

Vaguely, Xu Nian seemed to hear someone murmuring crazily.

Those words, weren’t being said to her.

But she could hear the deranged phrases.

“You’ve been a tragedy since you were born, abandoned by your parents because you were seriously ill.

You’ll always be alone in this hospital full of the smell of medicine.

No one cares about you, no one loves you.

They all treat you like a weed on the side of the road, perhaps withering away one day without anyone caring.”

“Loneliness has enveloped you, how much you long to be like a normal child, to have parents who love you, to have playmates to play with.”

“Loneliness will give you a new life, but this isn’t what you want.

Your power can’t bring you any needs.

You crave care, you crave friendship, but you can only be alone, and even this power will further increase your sense of loneliness.”

“But on this day, you’ll meet someone, she’ll come up and talk to you.

You thought this was a splash of color in your gray life, but the other party still ignored you after a brief moment of care.”

“In that case, in that case, then activate your ability, leave her completely behind, even, you can leave all the others behind, let them all play with you, let them all provide you with the love you need, even if it’s very empty, but if you have it, you won’t feel lonely, right?”

“This is what they should do.”

“Hahaha~ You believed it!”
