Looking at himself in the video, Chen Ge was filled with deep fear. He showed an expression of disbelief, the shock and fear did not appear to be fake at all.
"Is that really me?" Chen Ge's voice was filled with suspicion and uncertainty. His eyes darted around, and he did not even dare to look at himself.
"The video can be faked, but the wounds on your arms and fingers will not lie to you." Dr. Gao put away his white phone. "No one is willing to believe that there is another person living inside their body, but sometimes, we have to face it."
Chen Ge sat on the bed, and his expression made it hard for others to disturb him.
Dr. Gao looked at him for a while, and he could not help but offer some consolation. "The crazier your second persona is, the more effective our treatment is. He is afraid, he is worried that one day he will disappear. Don't be too sad, take a good rest here, do not put too much pressure on yourself. Treatment of mental illness is a very slow process, and it cannot be rushed. "
Slowly nodding, Chen Ge appeared to be still in shock. He did not seem to hear what Dr. Gao said at all, and he was just following the doctor's orders instinctively.
"You should stay at the quarantine area tonight. After your condition stabilizes, you can consider returning to the normal sickroom." Dr. Gao fed three white pills to Chen Ge and prepared to leave.
"Dr. Gao …" Chen Ge turned around to look at Dr. Gao who had already walked to the door. "Can my illness really be cured?"
"No problem, you have to have confidence in the hospital and yourself." Dr. Gao then left, and only Chen Ge was left inside the quarantine room.
The wounds on his arms had been treated, and they would not worsen. Perhaps due to the black powder, the broken leg that was wrapped in plaster slowly regained consciousness.
After Dr. Gao left, Chen Ge lay on the bed. The pain and struggle on his face slowly disappeared, and only calmness remained.
If someone saw his eyes then, they would probably jump in fright. Chen Ge's pupils slowly narrowed. "The hospital is lying. They do not want to cure me; they want to turn me into a monster that fits their requirements."
Leaning on the pillow, Chen Ge turned his head to look at the straps. "I need to leave the quarantine area as soon as possible and contact Zuo Han. Last night, he appeared to have made some important discoveries at the security room and the night doctor's office."
Under the hospital's eyes, the two patients used their lives as a bargaining chip to put on a show. They temporarily fooled the hospital and even obtained some clues.
"Zuo Han is very clever. He should be able to fool the doctors." Chen Ge had done everything that he could. From the moment he fainted, the stage had been handed over to Zuo Han.
In reality, the two of them had a clear division of labor. Neither of them could make any mistakes. If one of them revealed a flaw, the other would also be implicated.
But from Dr. Gao's attitude toward Chen Ge, Zuo Han should not have made any big mistakes.
There was no watch inside the room. After the sky darkened, Chen Ge fell asleep again.
After who knew how long, there was a sudden knock on the door of the quarantine room.
Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!
The person knocked on the door four times. When Chen Ge opened his eyes, the knocking had already disappeared.
"Another knocking in the middle of the night?"
The door of the quarantine room was very unique. To prevent the dangerous patients from escaping, all the door locks were installed on the outside. In other words, the people outside the door could enter the room as long as they had the key, but the people inside the room had no chance of leaving.
Chen Ge's heart slowly rose. He had been curious about the identity of this person. "When I was at the normal sickroom, I could hear knocking at the door in the middle of the night. Now that I've been locked inside the quarantine room, the knocking still follows me! What is the person trying to tell me through this sound? Just the sound of knocking doesn't seem to be able to give me any information! "
Chen Ge changed his sickroom, and the knocking came as expected. This meant that the person who knocked on the door had a deep understanding of what was happening inside the hospital.
"The patient probably wouldn't know the exact location of the room I'm in. Could it be a doctor who has been knocking on my door in the middle of the night?"
With limited information, that was all Chen Ge could think of.
"This person seems to be on a different side from the other doctors. Could it be that there is someone among the doctors who is willing to help me? He can't show his face, so he's using this method to tell me something? "
"The hospital hasn't been peaceful for the past few nights. Other than me, there are probably other people who are attracting the hospital's attention."
After knowing that someone was helping him, Chen Ge became calmer.
He started to try to recall his past memory. Last night, to stimulate himself to faint, he had actively tried to remember things related to his parents and the Haunted House. In the end, before he fainted from the pain, bits and pieces of memory did appear in his mind. "When I was young, my parents told me no matter what, I should not go to … Eastern Jiujiang?"
With his limbs tied up, Chen Ge could not even run. He did not dare to sleep, so he kept staring at the door. Without stimulating his brain, he arranged the memory of the past few days.
Reality and illusion intertwined like two different voices arguing in his mind. No one was willing to admit that they were fake because once they did, it meant that they would be completely abandoned.
In the morning, long after the sun had risen, Doctor Gao walked into the room with two hospital workers.
"Did you have any nightmares last night?" Every time after Chen Ge woke up from his coma, Doctor Gao would ask this question.
"No, after taking the medicine, I slept like a log."
"That's good." Doctor Gao and the two hospital workers moved some medical equipment into the room and performed a simple examination on Chen Ge. When he discovered some black particles on Chen Ge's arm, his expression relaxed. "Chen Ge, do you wish to return to the normal sickroom?"
"Of course, I can see the theme park, the Haunted House, and her from the normal sickroom," Chen Ge answered without hesitation.
"But with your current condition, I can't convince the other doctors, and no patient is willing to stay with you."
"I just want to return to my original room. Occasionally, I can look at the theme park from the window. You don't need to remove the restraints. That way, I won't hurt anyone anymore …"
"You still don't understand." Doctor Gao sat beside the bed. "The root of the problem is not you but your second persona. You represent good, and he represents evil. You need to use your own will to escape his influence, reject him from the bottom of your heart, and abandon him completely. You don't need to worry that he will affect you. We doctors will always be your strongest support. "
Chen Ge nodded. "I know what to do."
"If you lose control again, I'm afraid you'll really be locked up in the quarantine zone." Doctor Gao stood up. "I will try my best to arrange for you to return to your original room, but don't get your hopes up."
Even though Doctor Gao said not to get his hopes up, in the afternoon, Chen Ge was brought back to the normal sickroom by the hospital workers.
Honestly, without his second persona, Chen Ge was no different from a normal person. In fact, he was kinder and gentler than most people. Many patients felt that his smile was very warm.
The danger that Chen Ge posed was only known by the doctors and a certain 'victim'.
When he returned to the normal sickroom, Chen Ge did not see Zuo Han.
After asking the doctors, Chen Ge found out that after Zuo Han found out that he was moving back from the quarantine zone, he ran to the corridor and cursed at the hospital. He threatened to kill himself and refused to stay with Chen Ge no matter what.
After considering all the circumstances, the hospital finally arranged for him to stay in the room next to Chen Ge's.
Alone in the normal sickroom, after Chen Ge made sure that there was no one outside the door, he walked to Zuo Han's bed.
"I almost killed Zuo Han last night. Normally, Zuo Han, who suffers from paranoia, would not be willing to stay in the same room as me no matter what. This fits his condition, and at the same time, it can avoid suspicion. "
If Zuo Han did not object to Chen Ge moving back, then it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the hospital. After all, Zuo Han's condition was paranoia. How could the most sensitive person stay with someone who almost killed him?
"Zuo Han has moved out, and the hospital worker purposely told me that he is staying next to me. Looks like the hospital has not given up, and they still want me to kill Zuo Han. "
"Other than that, after Zuo Han moves out, there might be a new patient in this room. The new patient is a test for me, and it is also a chance for me to gain more help. "
Chen Ge had completely guessed Zuo Han's thoughts. "The next problem is the last one. Zuo Han must have found something that night. After he knew that I would return, he volunteered to move out. Then, he might have left his findings inside the sickroom so that I would be able to see the information without having any contact with him."
Scanning the sickroom, Chen Ge mumbled to himself, "Where would he hide the information?"
There were very few places to hide things inside the sickroom. Chen Ge first checked under the bed, the bedsheet, and the mattress before finally turning to the pillow case.
"Could it be inside the pillow case?" Chen Ge removed the pillow case from Zuo Han's bed, and there was nothing inside. "After Zuo Han moved out, the hospital worker might have changed his pillow case, and after I moved into the sickroom, the hospital worker might have checked my bedding as well. In that case, the safest place should be the bed in the middle that has not been occupied before."
Chen Ge picked up the pillow from the bed in the middle. After removing the pillow case, he found several pieces of paper that were filled with words inside.
"Found it!"
He did not hurry to look at it but first restored the sickroom and then moved it to his own bed.
"Even a pen and paper have been found. Looks like Zuo Han did gain quite a lot that night." Chen Ge faced away from the sickroom door and started to look at the pieces of paper.
The information on the first piece of paper was related to the hospital workers. Zuo Han looked at the worker's ID and duty record. All the workers at this hospital's third sick hall had the surname 'Chi'.
Zuo Han suspected that the surname 'Chi' had a special meaning at the hospital, and he hoped that Chen Ge would pay attention to that.
On the second piece of paper, Zuo Han marked out the word 'important'. He saw a cupboard that stored patient's records inside the room where the night doctor stayed.
All the patient's records were placed according to the date. There were seven slots in the cupboard, seven days a week.
Six of the slots only had about ten patient's records, but one of the slots was completely filled with patient's records. Perhaps due to the lack of space, there were several large cardboard boxes on the ground that were also filled with the patient's records from that day.
Zuo Han checked the dates. The ridiculous number of patient's records appeared the day before he moved into Chen Ge's room. The strangest thing was, all the patients' names were Zhang Wenyu!
The age, illness, and even photos of the patients on the medical records were completely different. Only the name column showed that all the patients were named Zhang Wenyu.
Counting the patient's records in the few large boxes, there were more than ten thousand patient's records with the name Zhang Wenyu. The hospital did not expect so many patients to appear on the same day. It appeared that something had gone wrong. Some of the patients had run out of the hospital without receiving any treatment.
The hospital was currently severely understaffed. One of the main reasons was that part of the doctors and workers had left the hospital to go to Xin Hai City to look for patients.
The above information was obtained by Zuo Han based on the night doctor's notes and the environment at the time. It was highly reliable.
"Zhang Wenyu? Another familiar name. "His brain started to throb with pain, and Chen Ge stopped his train of thought.
He continued to read. On the third piece of paper, it was written that Zuo Han had hidden the white phone that the worker had dropped under the third willow tree in the garden.
The fourth piece of paper contained some of Zuo Han's speculations and his gratitude to Chen Ge for not killing him.
"This kid is too capable. He has obtained so much information. This is far more than I expected."
Of the few pieces of paper, the most important one was the one related to Zhang Wenyu. The day that more than ten thousand patient's records appeared at the same time Chen Ge had just woken up from his coma.
This was too much of a coincidence. Therefore, it attracted the attention of Chen Ge. He suspected that the appearance of more than ten thousand patient's records had something to do with him.
"Just as I woke up from my coma, the hospital received more than ten thousand patient's records. Some of these patients are still outside the hospital.
"If the memory of the patients inside the hospital has been tampered with by the doctors, then is it possible that the patients who are still wandering outside the hospital still have their original memory?!"
"That's right! There has to be a reason why the hospital has spent so much effort to find them! With so many people flooding into the hospital at once, the hospital would not have been able to react in time. Therefore, there has to be someone who has slipped through the net. There has to be someone whose memory has not been tampered with! "
Chen Ge was instantly excited. Originally, there was only one kind of voice in this world, and that was the voice of the doctors. Everything that the doctors said was the 'truth', but things were different now. Chen Ge knew that there was another group of people in this world who had grasped the 'truth'.
"I need to find a way to communicate with the people outside the hospital. Temporarily, I am unable to escape from the hospital. I will have to trouble Zhang Ya with that. Hopefully, I can convince her."
A plan had already formed in Chen Ge's mind. He stopped trusting Doctor Gao and started to search for the truth on his own.
