The word "parents" had a special meaning for Chen Ge. Whether it was in the memory fragments in his mind or the memories that the doctor told him, parents were the starting point of all the mysteries.
One could say that the key reason why Chen Ge could become the current Chen Ge was because of his parents.
He knew this very well, but he didn't know why he would have such a thought.
The parents in his memory were only two names. Once he thought about things related to his parents, his brain would feel a sharp pain.
Even though the parents that the doctor mentioned had an accurate image, Chen Ge couldn't identify with them. It was as if the doctor was talking about someone else's parents.
With Chen Ge's personality, he wouldn't discuss this with others, but he didn't expect Zuo Han to say it directly.
Every word that came out of Zuo Han's mouth was like a knife, stabbing directly into Chen Ge's mind and piercing through the memory fragments.
"They are still alive?"
All the conclusions given by the hospital had a major premise, and that was that Chen Ge's parents died in a car accident. However, if Chen Ge's parents were still alive, then everything that the hospital said could be directly overturned!
Therefore, to prove reality and illusion, to determine whether he was really sick or not, it was actually very simple. He only needed to find his parents.
This was the last thought that came to Chen Ge's mind before he fainted from the pain. When his body collapsed, he pushed Zuo Han hard. He was worried that the second personality in his body would hurt Zuo Han.
Looking at Chen Ge who fell into a coma again, Zuo Han sucked in a cold breath. "What a scary willpower. All the blood vessels in his body are bulging like poisonous insects, but he can still endure it until the end. He only fainted after he pushed me away."
Actually, Zuo Han was also slightly afraid of Chen Ge, but some of Chen Ge's occasional movements and details would always reduce the fear in his heart.
For example, just now, when Chen Ge was enduring that kind of pain, he was still worried about whether he would hurt him or not.
"Why does such a gentle person have to suffer like this?" Zuo Han turned back to look at the door, and his eyes turned cold. "This world looks so beautiful at first glance, and the memories in my mind are all blissful, but such a beautiful world has locked me up in a mental hospital. Is this place really that beautiful?"
…
When Chen Ge woke up again, it was already night time. Dr. Gao and the two nurses were in the ward. Zuo Han was lying on his side, seemingly asleep.
"It's time to take your medicine, Chen Ge." Dr. Gao poured out three white pills from the bottle. He watched as Chen Ge swallowed them, and his face softened. "The food is on the bedside table. Remember to eat it. Tonight, close the door before you go to sleep. There has been a small problem at the hospital recently. One of the patients was injured, but we haven't found the culprit. Don't wander around at night."
"Alright." Chen Ge nodded weakly. His body seemed to have reached its limit, and his complexion was extremely pale.
"You should rest now." Dr. Gao sighed. He had the workers remove the restraints on Chen Ge's arms and legs before he left the room.
"How come it feels like Dr. Gao is getting busier and busier? A few days ago, he gave me the feeling that he was very confident. Has something happened to him?" Psychiatrists tried their best not to expose their own problems when they were treating patients, so when they were treating special patients, they would prepare themselves to be in their best condition. Initially, Dr. Gao performed very well, but for the past few days, his condition had been seriously deteriorating.
"Is there a patient at this hospital who gives him a bigger headache than me?" After Dr. Gao left, Chen Ge's expression returned to normal. "It might not be the patient. Perhaps it's another doctor who gives him a headache."
Moving his wrists, Chen Ge sat up in bed. "Looks like something did happen at the hospital, or else they wouldn't have come to help me remove the restraints."
Taking out the pill that was pressed under the tip of his tongue, Chen Ge was about to grind the pill into powder when he realized something was wrong.
Of the three pills that Dr. Gao fed him, two of them were white, and one of them was mixed with thin black lines.
"Hair? No, it's thinner than hair. " Chen Ge did not know what to do. "Did Dr. Gao suspect that I didn't take the pills, so he purposely swapped one of the pills?"
Chen Ge did not destroy the pill but woke up Zuo Han. "Brother, can you do me a favor?"
He told Zuo Han about the pill, hoping that Zuo Han could help him catch a bug or a small animal for experiment.
However, after Zuo Han heard that, he said that he was going to grind the pill into powder and then sneak it into the worker's cup when she was on duty.
He even planned the time and told Chen Ge to do it during the last patrol before the worker's shift.
"Let's not use a live human as an experiment." Chen Ge rejected him decisively. If something really went wrong, the hospital would immediately link it to him.
"They're already using you as an experiment, and you're still thinking about them? Aren't you being too much of a saint? "Zuo Han whispered.
"Someone told me that before." Chen Ge smiled helplessly. "I can't help it, I'm a soft-hearted person."
"You won't die from it. The hospital has spent so much effort to treat you, so they definitely won't prescribe a drug that will kill you directly. We're just observing the patient and analyzing the symptoms." Zuo Han was a forensic doctor, so he was good at this. "If you think it's too risky, then start with the patient."
Zuo Han could not convince Chen Ge, so in the end, he could only try using the bugs.
All the bugs that came into contact with the powder became strangely excited and started to turn on each other. One of the bugs even bit the other to pieces.
"The white pill can slow down a person's reaction speed, but the pill with the black thread has the opposite effect." Chen Ge looked at the bugs' carcasses on the ground, and his eyes slowly moved to the straps. He seemed to be reminded of something, and he turned to look at the tray at the bedside. "Zuo Han, when Xu Wan came to deliver food in the past, after we finished eating, she would take the tray away, wouldn't she?"
"Yes, she would watch you eat and then take the tray away. I suspect the nurse has other intentions."
"But why didn't they take the tray away this time?" Chen Ge picked up the sharp metal fork on the tray. "Furthermore, I remember that to protect the patients, they never allowed the patients to use forks, and they rarely used chopsticks. Normally, they were given disposable plastic spoons."
Zuo Han also felt that something was wrong. He looked at Chen Ge, who was holding the metal fork, and he suddenly shivered. "I know … the hospital wants you to kill me with your own hands!"
After he said that, the room instantly became quiet.
After staying together for a few days, Zuo Han had become familiar with Chen Ge, and they became the witnesses of the other's memory being altered. But just as everything was going in the right direction, the hospital revealed their fangs.
They gave Chen Ge the flame of hope, and then they had him personally extinguish it, slowly turning him into the person that he hated the most.
Perhaps from the moment Zuo Han moved into the room, the meaning of this young man's existence was already decided.
