The Fat Doctor had already crawled onto the Surgery table.
Under the illumination of the light, Mono finally saw its appearance clearly.
Its physique was similar to that in the game—a deformed belly as thick as a ball or a bucket, short and sharp feet, and massive hands.
Its entire image was almost like a giant silkworm cocoon, or an ugly and disgusting maggot.
Wu Bei instinctively felt unwell.
Compared to the Neck Person Teacher and the Hunter, the Fat Doctor's appearance had changed far more; nearly half of it was no longer human.
But what was it doing now?
Mono observed it once again.
The Fat Doctor was hanging upside down, its hands constantly fumbling with the doll on the Surgery table; after a moment, it picked it up and held it before its large nose to sniff it gently.
Just as Mono thought it was going to lick it...
It instead reached out and thrust its hand into the doll's neck, giving it a twist.
Then it set it down, turned around, and crawled toward them.
Mono's heart skipped a beat.
He looked left and right, and seeing the stacked fabrics nearby, his eyes lit up. He then hurriedly pulled Six over to the neatly folded fabrics.
"Quick, get inside."
Mono didn't dare underestimate whether the Fat Doctor would be a
"blind despite having eyes" like in the game.
If it came over and discovered them among the shelves, given its swift movement on the ceiling, they would surely be in big trouble.
...Asking for flowers...
Six's movements were not slow; stepping with her little feet, she climbed directly onto the pile of fabrics, then...
with a small bend and her bottom sticking out, she crawled straight inside.
Mono followed closely behind.
Just as they crawled in, the cabinet they were in began to shake.
Mono could hear heavy breaths coming from a place very close to them
coming out.
Was the Fat Doctor right in front of the shelf?
Mono's heart immediately rose to his throat.
Just as he was thinking, another violent shake occurred.
Mono only felt as if the fabrics they were in had been picked up in something's hand
in its hand.
"Damn, it couldn't be such a coincidence, could it?"
Mono had an ominous suspicion in his heart.
Could the Fat Doctor be...
Soon, Mono discovered his suspicion was correct, as the snoring sound did not fade away despite the jolting.
...
Had they been "caught"?
Mono hurriedly grabbed Six's hand and said in a low, rapid whisper:
"If anything happens later, remember to run fast and don't stop."
Little Six seemed to sense something as well and nodded silently.
However, after a period of jolting, the situation Mono feared did not occur.
The vibration stopped.
Mono hesitated for a moment before slowly moving to lift a sliver of the fabric and peek outside.
Looking out, he realized they had been moved from the shelf to a table on the other side, not far from the Surgery table.
And the Doctor's massive figure was right there, within arm's reach.
Mono could now clearly see everything on its body.
The crisscrossing ravines of fat, the fabrics wrapped around its bloated form, its cloudy eyes, sparse hair, thick nose, and crimson, heavy lips.
A nauseating stench wafted over.
Mono silently endured the discomfort while watching its movements.
The Doctor was still attending to the doll in its hands.
It turned around to take a jar containing an unknown liquid from a corner, then opened it, reached in with a finger, and scooped some out onto its hand.
With a pinch, it smeared the substance onto the doll's neck, then picked up a fragmented head lying nearby and pressed it onto the neck.
Mono watched with his own eyes how the dolls he had seen before were made...
It had to be said that although the Fat Doctor was very ugly, its craftsmanship was unexpectedly superb...
So, in a way, the damn thing was actually a rare talent...?
