7 deceased patients had appeared at the hospital in such a short period of time. Each of them died in a strange way and there was no obvious similarity between them.
"Doctor Sun told me to pay attention to their cause of death but there is not much of a problem from the way they died. Could it be that Doctor Sun is trying to tell me that ghosts really exist in this world through the stories of these 7 people?"
Chen Ge had too little information. He was unable to get too much useful information from Doctor Sun's story so he could only forcibly memorize Doctor Sun's story in his mind.
Lightning flashed outside the hospital. The storm was like a hysterical patient, it slammed madly on the glass window. Large raindrops fell and the sound of banging echoed endlessly.
The four of them came to the entrance of the fourth sick hall. Doctor Sun did not question Chen Ge anymore, he led him directly up the stairs.
After entering the stairs, Chen Ge's heart started to race. He had a feeling of difficulty breathing. His mind kept replaying the story that Doctor Sun told him earlier.
"The doctor who was watching the surveillance once saw a strange person in a red dress appear inside the stairs. After the person went up the stairs, she did not come back down. Tonight is too strange, will we run into her?"
Theoretically speaking, this was something very scary but when Chen Ge thought about this, his heart kept racing and an indescribable emotion rose in his body.
It was very complicated. Compared to fear, it was more curiosity and excitement.
"Curiosity killed the cat, I need to calm down before I can do anything."
When they reached the second floor, Chen Ge discovered a headless rag doll placed at the corner of the stairs.
The doll was handmade. The body was torn open and the black and red stuffing underneath was exposed.
"Why would there be something like this at the hospital?" Chen Ge was about to move forward when someone pulled at his patient garb. He turned back to look and saw it was Patient Number 2. "What's wrong?"
"Why are you so brave when you have lost a leg? Don't wander off on your own, stay close to us. "Patient Number 2's tone was filled with worry. It was clear that he was really looking out for Chen Ge.
"Yes, I am just going to take a look." Chen Ge didn't know why, but his eyesight was very good. Even in the dark, he could see a lot of things clearly. This might be caused by some kind of eye disease, at least he thought so.
When he reached the corner, Chen Ge slowly frowned. The rag doll seemed to be filled with animal organs, and it looked disgusting.
"Don't get too close to it. There was a pregnant woman in the hospital before. Because of the obstetrician's mistake, her child died. After the pregnant woman was saved, her mental state started to deteriorate. She was sent to the third sick hall. Throughout the period of her hospitalization, she had been searching for her child. "Doctor Sun stared at the doll on the ground expressionlessly.
"Are you saying that this doll was placed here by the pregnant woman?"
"Other than her, I can't think of anyone else. To be honest, she is quite a pitiful person. Perhaps it was because she had suffered such a huge blow that she was unwilling to admit the truth of her child's death. She kept telling the people around her that her child was still alive and was right beside her. At night, her child would even crawl into her pillow." Doctor Sun dragged Chen Ge away from the headless rag doll.
"Does her condition count as delusional?" Chen Ge had become a doctor after being sick for a long time.
"Yes, but also no." Doctor Sun turned back to smile. "The pregnant woman's condition was very similar to yours. She refused to accept the treatment. Perhaps she knew that once she was cured, she might not be able to see her child again."
"It's similar to my situation?" Chen Ge was confused.
"If the price you have to pay for the treatment is to forget the story that you have made up and to forget everyone in the story, would you still be willing to accept the treatment?" Doctor Sun asked casually, but Chen Ge felt like the man was testing him.
After giving it some serious thought, Chen Ge did not answer. He did not want to reveal his real thoughts.
"For a patient who did not want to be cured from the very beginning, no matter how hard the doctor tried, it would be useless. The pregnant woman's condition was getting worse and worse. She would often tear up the bedsheets and curtains to make some simple dolls and then place those dolls on the stairs. She believed that by doing that, her child would return. Until now, I still do not understand what she meant by return. Did she mean the child would be attracted by the doll and return to find its mother, or did she mean the dead child would crawl into the doll's body and return to accompany its mother?
"Regardless of the situation, I do not think we should hate this doll. Even though it looks scary, it contains the pregnant woman's obsession." Chen Ge dragged his leg that was wrapped in plaster as he stood before the doll. His words confused both Patient Number 2 and Doctor Sun.
"You are sympathizing with the pregnant woman?" Doctor Sun wanted to confirm.
"I would not say that I am sympathizing with the pregnant woman. We should analyze this rationally, is it wrong for the pregnant woman to do what she did? Even if the child has turned into a ghost, is the child in the wrong? " Chen Ge's thought process was different from the doctor. "They are both victims, the real culprit is the person who killed them."
"You think this tragedy is caused by the doctor?" Just as Doctor Sun finished, Doctor Gao who was like a walking dead frowned slightly.
"It might not be the doctor's fault but it has to be related to him. So many things have happened at this hospital, no one can guarantee that the doctor was not interfered with by something during the operation." Chen Ge looked at the headless doll at the corner of the stairs. "Every wrong has its perpetrator, if it is looking for an answer, then it should be the fault of something inside this hospital."
"Are you trying to reason with a ghost?" Patient Number 2 could not understand Chen Ge's various actions either.
"It is not certain whether there are ghosts in this world or not, I am merely giving my own opinion." Chen Ge moved his eyes away. "The hospital is cleaned in the morning. This doll has now appeared in the corridor, it means that the pregnant woman is probably still alive. There are other survivors at the hospital, this is good news for us. "
"The pregnant woman passed away on the third month of her treatment. When she died, we found a cupboard full of dolls inside it." After Doctor Sun said that, Chen Ge and Patient Number 2 were stunned.
"The person is no longer here? Then who placed the doll here? " Patient Number 2 still did not believe that there were ghosts in this world. "It should be the doctor who knows about the pregnant woman's condition. The murderer is mimicking the pregnant woman's action, could it be that the murderer is one of the doctors?"
Then he turned to look at Doctor Sun with confusion. Honestly, he was very suspicious of Doctor Sun.
"When Zhang Jingjiu was injured, both Doctor Sun and Doctor Gao were with us. Even if the murderer is a doctor, they can be ruled out of suspicion." Compared to a doctor being the murderer, Chen Ge felt like the chance of a baleful ghost returning from the dead was higher.
In the midst of the argument, the group arrived at the second floor. The empty corridor was pasted with many pictures of doctors. This scene gave Chen Ge a sense of déjà vu.
"The hospital used to post the pictures of the best doctors and their accolades on the wall. Initially, Xin Hai Central Hospital spent a lot of money to hire many famous doctors, in a way, this was a kind of marketing method.
The hospital's intention was good but later on, one of the doctors passed away in an accident. The hospital felt like it was not right to continue pasting his picture on the wall, so they removed his picture. But one night, a nurse on duty realized that the picture that was removed from the wall had reappeared on the wall.
She studied it closely for a long time and came up with a rather scary answer. The picture on the wall was not the doctor's picture but the doctor's face.
She reported this to the hospital. The leader arranged for the workers to stay at the hospital to investigate but the picture never appeared again.
At the time, the people at the hospital were in a panic. The leader gave the nurse a long leave so that she could rest at home. Just as everyone thought this was the end of the story, they did not expect accidents would befall the doctors who pasted the picture on the wall one after another.
In the end, the hospital removed all the pictures of the doctors and refused to hang pictures of living people on the wall. "
After hearing what Doctor Sun had to say, Chen Ge was even more confused. "You said the hospital refused to hang pictures on the wall, then what is with the pictures on the two sides of the corridor? Someone purposely hung them up tonight? "
"That is what I said earlier." Doctor Sun pointed at the door next to them. "After you walk past a door, the inside and outside are two different sides of the same place. You are now inside the hospital but not the original hospital. By the way, there is one more thing I need to tell you. The doctor whose picture still appeared on the wall after his death was the doctor who operated on the pregnant woman earlier. "
Doctor Sun emphasized this point. Chen Ge thought about it carefully. He realized most of the victims at this hospital had interacted with other victims before.
Their deaths were not accidental, it was more like a kind of inevitability disguised as accident.
"Let's not stay here for too long." Lightning flashed and it lit up the pale faces on both sides of the corridor. Chen Ge even had the illusion that the pictures on the wall were not pictures at all.
The group reached the 4th floor in one go. Doctor Sun walked at the front. "If I remember correctly, the emergency medical storage room is the 7th room."
The corridor on the 4th floor appeared to be deserted. Most of the doors here were locked and the locks were covered in dust.
"After the first hospital director's accident, the 4th floor of the 4th sick hall was basically abandoned. Normally, the doctors and nurses would rather take a detour than walk down this corridor."
"Is it really that scary?" Chen Ge realized he was not that sensitive to fear.
"There was once a cleaner who refused to believe it. He came to clean the hospital at dusk when there were not many people around. Then he saw someone holding something and writing on the wall on the 4th floor corridor. He saw the person was wearing a doctor's coat so he thought it was a doctor. When he walked over, he realized the thing in the person's hand was his own severed finger and he kept writing the word 'death' on the wall. "
"The cleaner saw the old hospital director who had committed suicide?"
"Yes." Doctor Sun's voice turned chilling. "But do you know what is scarier?"
"The cleaner also died in an accident?" This was already the scariest thing that Chen Ge could think of.
"The cleaner resigned. After that, he went to work at a small private hospital. On the 7th day after he arrived at the hospital, he died inside the hospital director's office. His death was very similar to the old hospital director's. When the police arrived, they found the whole room was filled with the word 'death'. Not long after that, the private hospital closed down. The related people who ran the hospital disappeared. I heard that the doctors and nurses at the hospital all stopped working in the field of medicine. "
"How come it sounds like some kind of curse to me? The hospital itself is the curse. Everyone who is cursed will continue to spread misfortune unless they leave the hospital forever." Chen Ge himself thought that was quite unbelievable. "Using the hospital as the medium of the curse and turning the place that saved lives into the source of tragedy, the person who planted this curse is too evil."
"Baleful specter? Curse? Your ability to accept and diverge thinking is too strong. " Patient Number 2 shook his head. He did not agree with Chen Ge's thought. From his perspective, the source of all strange things was human beings. But he did not plan to argue with Chen Ge. After all, Chen Ge was a patient.
With his hands on the wall, Chen Ge followed the two doctors into the 4th floor corridor. Initially, there was nothing out of the ordinary but after walking for about 10 seconds, Chen Ge felt like something was not right.
The corridor did not appear to be that long, one could see the end of it with one glance. But they walked for more than 10 seconds and still had not reached the end.
"This is so strange." Chen Ge stopped moving. The other 3 looked at Chen Ge with confusion, as if they were wondering why he had stopped.
"What's wrong?"
"None of you have noticed?" Chen Ge pointed at the door of the room next to him. "This is the second time this sealed door has appeared! We seem to have run into a ghost wall. "
After being reminded by Chen Ge, Patient Number 2 finally reacted. "You're right, I also feel like I've been walking for a long time. I thought it was just my imagination caused by my nerves."
"Perhaps it is because of this door." Ever since Chen Ge heard the story of the first hospital director, he had been very curious about the hospital director's office. He was dying to see what this secret room looked like.
Before the two doctors stopped him, Chen Ge pushed lightly on the door of the hospital director's office. Who knew the door was not locked.
A pungent Foul Odor drifted out from behind the door. Patient Number 2 covered his mouth and nose directly. Doctor Sun and Doctor Gao also took a step back. Only Chen Ge stood dumbly at the door.
Sniffing his nose, Chen Ge took in a deep breath. The stench that almost suffocated him stirred up the memory in his mind. Many scary images flashed across his mind.
"I've smelled this smell somewhere else before!" He was very sure of it. His brain started to recall the memory involuntarily. The pain returned.
Holding the door frame, Chen Ge gritted his teeth and entered the hospital director's office. He looked at the word 'death' that filled the room. His brain felt like it was being torn apart.
"I am very familiar with this stench! I have smelled this smell at the edge of death! Whenever I smell this stench, something bad will happen! "
With his back against the door frame, Chen Ge forced himself not to fall. He tried his best to open his eyes and finally confirmed the source of the stench.
On the table in the middle of the hospital director's office sat a glass jar. Inside the jar sat a heart that was entangled with black threads.
