Night 64: Main Hallway, 1-Center
[from here]
She paused again by the Sun Room, probing the darkness. There were no flashlights around to break up the shadows, and no natural light to guide her eyes. After all her many nights moving around the building without her own flashlight she’d become more than adept at navigating in total darkness, but caution still pricked at the fine hairs on the nape of her neck every time she reached an area that was not heavily populated with foot traffic.
If Landel had half a mind to prevent them from reaching the secret in the Medical Wing, now would be the time for him to act. Tsubaki couldn’t trust that he hadn’t heard I.R.I.S.’ relay, if the intercom’s abrupt cut-off had been any indication.
As she passed the doors leading to the entryway, she once again felt her eyes wandering toward them. Would what had happened there happen again? To someone she knew next time?
Would someone be injured because of the transformed prisoner?
Keep going, the assassin in her said. No time for doubts.

You'd think he was the one with the infection, from how worried he was about it.
His frown grew deeper, but he kept his eyes on the end of the hallway. "That's good, though. That probably means you don't know anyone who has it. Anyway, I've heard the symptoms are sort of flu-like. B-But that obviously doesn't give us a lot to work with. People come down with flu here all the time!" He hadn't noticed how his voice had suddenly become louder.
He gave her a confused look. What was that supposed to mean...? Instead of asking her about it, he focused on the hallway in front of them.
