Free Web NovelChapter 313: Chapter 310: Gothic Mental Hospital (2)
[Does Host require assistance? It’s only 100,000 reputation value~]
Wen Ying wrote two words on the light screen: "Curse you."
Password correct. Welcome to the Gothic Mental Hospital.
The mechanical voice and the System’s voice overlapped perfectly.
"System, what did you just say?"
[Host misheard. I said nothing.]
Wen Ying didn’t press the issue. After the correct password was entered, the massive, wall-like gate began to slide slowly to the right.
Without hesitation, Wen Ying walked toward the mental hospital.
The moment she stepped inside, the hospital’s main gate slammed shut behind her.
Dead silence!
A terrifying silence began to spread. The atmosphere inside this old castle was even more oppressive than outside.
It was as if an invisible pair of hands was choking you, stifling your breath.
Squeezing the very air from around you.
"System, let’s start the stream."
Wen Ying smiled and glanced around. The crow that had been perched on the castle’s rafters seemed to be gone.
[Why did Host choose to stream from here?]
’The outside was clearly better and safer,’ the System thought.
"For the thrill of it. Don’t you think it’s exciting? An old castle, a mental hospital, sinister, cursed."
Wen Ying even started cracking her knuckles!
Looking like she was ready to go all out.
Speaking of which, the System just remembered something. "Host, how did you know the password was ’Curse you’?"
"A guess."
[...]
’Fine, don’t tell me. It’s not like I’m an unreasonable system. I give my host the greatest freedom,’ it thought.
’I’m an amazing system!’
’Hmph!’
A drone materialized out of thin air, and a bright light suddenly illuminated the castle courtyard.
The appearance of the light seemed to dilute the sinister atmosphere.
[Host, your account has been banned, hehehe.]
The System sounded a little smug. [Need to spend some reputation value to unban it?]
But before its voice could even fade, a light screen materialized in front of Wen Ying.
The screen displayed everything from the livestream room.
The account was unbanned...
[...]
The System was a bit dejected and pouty, so it didn’t say anything else.
"There, there, System. When the stream is over, I’ll give you some candy~"
Wen Ying offered a casual, offhand word of comfort.
’Just to keep the System from stirring up trouble.’
[Doctor Wen????]
[Is this for real this time or fake?!!!]
[No one would dare impersonate Doctor Wen again, right? Wasn’t the last lesson enough?]
[Of course no one here would dare, but who knows about those idiots overseas? They aren’t under our jurisdiction! So is this Doctor Wen the real deal?!]
[Song Jiayan, Xu Jiali, get in here and take a look! Authenticate her for us!]
[Didn’t Doctor Wen’s account get banned because it was hacked? The fact that it’s unbanned now must mean the platform verified her identity, right?]
[Good point! So this really is Doctor Wen!]
#RealOrFakeDoctorWen
This hashtag had long been at the top of the trending list.
And now that Wen Ying was streaming again, a new topic began to storm the trending list.
#TheRealDoctorWenIsLive!
Wen Ying read the comments. No "welcome back," no "we missed you like crazy," just... ’Is she real or fake?’
"Someone hacked my account to stream? Some new AI deepfake technology, I assume?"
[Doctor Wen, you’re amazing! You even guessed that!]
[No kidding, technology has come so far. The emergence of this AI tech really seems like a revolution, but AI scams have been getting more and more common lately. It’s impossible to guard against them!]
[The government is even running campaigns telling everyone to be wary of these AI scams. Just the other day, my grandma transferred 30,000 yuan to my uncle, who’s been working out of town for ten years and hasn’t been home. That was her savings from all these years! And it turned out to be a scam! Those sons-of-bitches scammers should all just drop dead!]
[Yeah, technology has advanced, but the elderly can’t tell what’s real or fake. Good thing I’m poor. I basically don’t participate in anything that costs more than one yuan.]
"Long time no see. It’s been four days since I was filming the show. I bet all you fellow patients couldn’t wait for my return, right? Don’t worry, there’s a share for everyone."
[Pfft! LMAO! That’s Doctor Wen, all right. Still has that same vibe!]
[Can I not be a fellow patient? I just want to be Doctor Wen’s fanboy!]
[Doctor Wen, where is this? Aren’t you filming a show? Why are you all by yourself?]
Director of ’Let’s Go Exploring’: [Doctor Wen, are you safe now?]
The sudden appearance of Director Wen made the live comments instantly explode.
