The Endgame Chronicles (by Hugh White) novel Chapter 338

Chapter 338

“I am! Dr. Corbyn, I’m a normal person! I’m better now! Let me go!” the woman cried.

Hayley frowned. “Didn’t you say your last name was Corbyn?”

“Dr. Corbyn, I know I was wrong! I won’t pretend to be you anymore! Please let me go this once! Don’t give me injections! I’ll behave. I won’t cause trouble anymore!”

Hayley fell silent. She finally got it now.

This woman wasn’t a doctor or a nurse at all.

Rather, she was a psychiatric patient.

Griffin glanced at her outfit and noticed the blue-and-white striped hospital gown hidden under the pink nurse uniforın.

“Boss, she’s a patient from here. She’s cuckoo.”

Hayley almost facepalmed herself.

Just then, they heard children crying from a room up ahead.

The moment the crying started, the woman suddenly burst out with incredible strength. She shoved Griffin away in one motion and sprinted toward the room at a speed so fast that Hayley couldn’t grab her in time.

When Hayley and Griffin followed her inside, they saw five children of different ages clinging tightly to the woman

At that moment, the mentally ill woman looked unusually clear-headed. Like a mother hen shielding her chicks, she wrapped herself around them, protecting them all.

She soothed each child gently, her expression filled with tenderness.

Hayley was stunned.

There really were children! Not just one, at that.

She couldn’t even begin to imagine how this woman had managed to protect five children in a hospital full of zombies for an entire year.

How did she do it? She was mentally ill, too.

Griffin couldn’t help but whisper in shock, “How did she manage this?”

“No idea,” Hayley said, looking at the woman, “but we have to take them with us.”

No matter how this woman had done it, they had to evacuate. This place was about to be blown apart. The kids had to leave

Five minutes later, Hayley finished placing all the explosives at their designated spots throughout the hospital

The woman pushed a rolling medication cart with all five children loaded onto it. None of the kids was very old. The oldest was around five, and the youngest looked barely a year old.

However, they were all incredibly well-behaved. Not a single one made a sound. They seemed long used to living like this, knowing they couldn’t make noise.

The woman pushed the cart and stayed close behind Hayley.

Hayley stood by a third-floor window, calculating how to get the children and this woman out safely

After thinking it over for a while, she turned to Griffin. “Griffin, can I trust you just this once?”
