Mono silently curled his lip.
Six really has no tact at all. Would it kill her to say something nice?
She even finds him annoying?
However, he wouldn't mind.
Anyway... he didn't care at all whether Six had a good impression of him, nor did he care if she... liked him...
Pah!
Mono shook his head.
Right, he didn't care one bit.
Who was he? He was Mono. Would he really care about a little girl's opinion of him?
"Alright, come over here~"
Despite thinking that, Mono still grabbed Six's small hand and continued walking forward.
Little Six looked at her hand being tightly held and pulled, then looked up at the hurried back of the figure in front of her, falling silent once more.
Mono... really is very annoying...
Six remained silent, quietly following behind him.
Mono pulled Little Six and walked silently to the other end of the room.
The exit at the other end was blocked by a large door.
This was an electric door with an opening button on the side.
Mono let go of her hand, pointed to the space under a nearby bed, and said to Little Six:
"Stinky Girl, hide under the bed."
At this moment, he was no longer bickering with Six about what had just happened.
Little Six looked at the underside of the bed, then gave Mono a confused look.
She seemed confused about why they had to hide.
However, she didn't ask.
She just nodded and walked over to a Hospital bed. She then bent down and, like a little caterpillar, arched her body and wriggled inch by inch into the darkness beneath the bed.
Mono withdrew his gaze and turned his attention back to the large door.
He wasn't sure if there was a place to escape behind the door once it opened, nor was he sure if the Fat Doctor would be attracted by the sound of the electric door opening, so he had to be cautious.
Without wasting any more time, Mono looked up again, then jumped and directly pressed the button for the electric door, which wasn't very high.
"Zizizi?"
A static noise instantly echoed within the room.
It also traveled far, echoing outside the room...
And in the next moment.
"Hu-hu-hu?"
From outside the door behind the room came a hurried and panicked call. It seemed like something had been startled by the sound of the electric door opening.
Mono didn't slow down; he sprinted and did a sliding tackle, scurrying under the bed.
He slid right next to Six.
Then he quickly turned back, silently looking out from under the bed...
Beside him, Six turned her head, silently watching Mono, who was staring outside with a serious and vigilant expression.
A surprisingly firm persistence showed in his dark eyes...
...
Mono watched as the Fat Doctor crawled in from outside the room.
His massive frame squeezed into that small wooden door, causing the door's wooden boards to slightly deform.
However, with a soft sound, it still managed to squeeze in.
Then, using its thick, short legs and forelimbs, it clung to the ceiling and crawled toward them.
With its movements, the room's ceiling lamp swayed, and white dust fell from the ceiling.
Under the swaying light, its distorted shadow swayed on the floor. The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.
Although the Monster Doctor appeared bloated like a barrel, its movements were swift and not slow at all. In the blink of an eye, it crawled from the other side to the electric door that had just opened.
Mono hid under the bed, not daring to breathe loudly.
He saw the Fat Doctor turn its head and look around, carefully observing, seemingly confused as to why the electric door had opened.
After checking and finding nothing, it circled the room a few more times.
Then it turned and crawled onto the hospital beds, clinging to them while suspended in mid-air, and reached out to pick up the dolls lying motionless on the beds.
When those thick, strange, and deformed hands landed on the dolls, they were surprisingly gentle.
It fiddled with them, smelled them, and brought over some unknown substances to apply to them.
It seemed to be checking the condition of the doll patients on the beds, appearing very dedicated.
Mono watched silently for a while longer, then finally turned back and tapped Six beside him.
"Follow me~" he whispered.
Six withdrew her fixed gaze and nodded.
While the doctor was checking the other end of the room, Mono silently crawled along the headboard toward the other side.
Six followed closely behind.
The two figures moved forward like this, silently passing through the main door.
The Fat Doctor was very focused on his work and did not notice their departure.
Passing through the large electric iron door, a slightly dim room came into view.
In the room, a quilt was neatly folded, a small blackboard hung on the wall, and many papers were stuck to the board.
Mono silently walked to the blackboard. Under the dim light, the papers hanging on the blackboard had some crooked writing on them.
It looked like a diary.
But it also looked like some symbols.
Of course, inevitably, he saw an eye again.
Mono couldn't make anything out from these papers.
Reaching out to tear up the paper with the eye drawn on it, Mono silently walked to the side.
Little Six glanced at the scraps of paper scattered on the floor and followed behind. Mono walked to the bottom of a cabinet.
There were no other exits in the room, but there was a ventilation duct opening on the cabinet.
"Going up?"
