"Oh, it's Young Master Qin..." Director Zhang said with a smile.
"Did you come here on vacation alone?" he asked again.
"More or less." Qin Manjiang nodded.
Although [Eye Realm] had sent him here along with the others, those people really did not know who the code name "Professor" belonged to.
There was nothing particularly wrong with saying he had come alone.
More importantly, Qin Manjiang had a vague feeling that there was something off about every question this director asked.
"Why do you ask, Director?" Qin Manjiang asked, feigning curiosity.
"Ha... well, you see, our village isn't very safe at night. Once night falls, my place is the only place you can stay. I was thinking, if you have any friends, Young Master Qin, you'd best bring them all here. If they spend the night anywhere else..."
Qin Manjiang did not know whether he had imagined it, but the instant the old director said that, he actually saw pitch-black pupils filling his eyes. All the whites had vanished!
But after a blink, the old director looked normal again. "Something will happen," he said eerily.
Was he lying?
Qin Manjiang could not be sure. [Sick Village] had a three-day time limit for completion. If they could not clear it early, they would need to eat and stay here for a while. If what the old director said was true, then after clearing his individual area, he would need to go out, find the other players, and bring them all here.
Forget it. No rush. At the very least, I need to finish the task of touring this Nursing Home first.
"I see..." Qin Manjiang nodded and told Director Zhang, "Once I've finished the tour, I'll go tell them. If they're willing to come, I'll bring them here."
Director Zhang grinned
