The dark red blood vessels filled with despair crawled into Chen Ge's soul. The black threads that represented the curse and pain curled around his body. The two forces fought with Chen Ge as the battlefield, they were about to crush him into pieces.
From his body to his soul, the pain was indescribable. The most terrifying thing was Chen Ge realized he was unable to faint.
His body's self-protection mechanism had completely lost its effect at that moment, he could only endure the extreme pain.
"Is this all part of your plan? Doctor Sun! "
Chen Ge's mind was still clear. In this most desperate and difficult moment, he knew he was unable to resist so he gave up resisting and voluntarily embraced the pain.
He did something that no one else dared to do. When the two forces clashed, he used his brain to its maximum capacity and started to recall the memory fragments from his past without restraint!
Sealed memories resurfaced in his mind, familiar faces flashed across his mind. Chen Ge was in so much pain that he thought he was going to die.
If this was at the hospital, he would have fainted from the pain already but at this place, his body and soul were taken over by the two forces, he could not faint even if he wanted to.
Looking at Chen Ge's condition, Doctor Sun touched the scar on his face. He did not know what to do at that moment. "The brain maze is just the natural talent of the night doctor, why would it cause such a strong stimulation to him? Is this the power of Patient No. 1? Once he thinks about him, he will be affected by him? "
Chen Ge was in so much pain that he wanted to die but he could not. Doctor Sun was flustered but there was nothing he could do. In the end, he could only look at Chen Ge apologetically.
"If this continues, he might die from the pain. Even though dying here will not affect him in real life but his situation looks quite unique!"
Doctor Sun met up with his evil spirit. He did not dare get close to Chen Ge so he had the evil spirit drag all the heads to find Chen Ge.
His original intention was to have the evil spirit bring Chen Ge away from the office but who knew once the evil spirit got close to Chen Ge, it would be torn apart by the blood vessels and curse.
Countless drops of blood dripped onto Chen Ge's body. Coupled with Chen Ge's ferocious face, he looked like a devil that had just crawled out of hell.
"It's over …" Doctor Sun did not have a backup plan. He could only watch helplessly.
After an unknown period of time, the crimson blood veins completely suppressed the cursed threads under Chen Ge's active cooperation. Some unfamiliar memory fragments began to appear in Chen Ge's mind.
These memories did not belong to Chen Ge. They should be the memories of the child's head.
His memory was occupied by death, the many different ways of dying and the many ways of returning. The child was walking in a red city, he kept pushing open the doors covered in blood vessels.
The child's memory was embedded into the gap in Chen Ge's memory. The pain slowly disappeared, and in the end, there was only one sentence left in Chen Ge's mind — I will wait for you deep inside that city.
Paralyzed on the ground, Chen Ge did not faint but he did not even have the energy to blink his eyes anymore.
The glass jar in the hospital director's office was shattered. Chen Ge's patient garb was covered in glass shards and blood stains. There were several human heads that rolled around him but upon closer inspection, one would realize the child's head was not among the human heads.
Doctor Sun searched the entire office but he could not find the child's head. A chill ran down his spine. He tried to touch Chen Ge. He realized the blood vessels and cursed threads had already disappeared. He quickly dragged Chen Ge out of the office.
"Can you hear me?" Doctor Sun collected all the human heads and then he dragged Chen Ge up to the 5th floor of the third sick hall. "Even though there have been some accidents, but on the whole, everything is still going according to my plan. You have to remember what I have told you."
Using about 15 minutes, Doctor Sun dragged Chen Ge and the human heads to the door of the treatment room on the 5th floor. "Whether you can escape from this hospital or not will depend on this. The hospital is filled with their people. I will not be able to communicate with you. Once you leave this place, you will have to rely on yourself."
Doctor Sun held Chen Ge's hand and pushed open the door. Then he pushed Chen Ge and all the human heads into the sickroom.
"You have to find your real self."
…
Doctor Sun closed the door. Just as the door closed, Chen Ge's eyes flew open.
"Ah!"
Chen Ge's scream echoed inside the treatment room. The chair toppled over and his body slammed heavily to the ground.
"Chen Ge?"
"No. 7?"
The ticking sound of the mechanical watch weakened. Doctor Gao and the other patients turned to look at Chen Ge. At that moment, Chen Ge appeared to have lost his mind, he kept screaming and screaming.
"Why are you still alive? Why are you still alive?! "
Chen Ge waved the newspaper that he was holding with all his might. In the process, he cut his finger. Blood soaked the paper and it fell to reveal the sharp shard of the mirror inside.
Moving his eyes, Chen Ge saw his own face in the mirror. He appeared to be in great shock. "Murderer! He is the murderer! He is the one who killed all of you! "
The mirror fell to the ground and shattered into several pieces. Every piece of the mirror reflected Chen Ge's own face.
Doctor Gao who was sitting on the chair slowly stood up. He put away the mechanical watch on the table. The ticking sound disappeared. The other patients slowly returned to normal. They were just slightly pale but Chen Ge appeared to have really lost his mind.
"Inside the hospital, you have killed everyone." Doctor Gao took out a document and started to jot down something on it. The other patients looked at Chen Ge with fear in their eyes.
"The treatment ends here. Chen Ge will stay behind. The rest of you can return to your respective sickrooms."
After the patients left, Doctor Sun and Doctor Gao tried to communicate with Chen Ge but unfortunately Chen Ge appeared to be too traumatized. He started to ramble nonsense and his behavior became more and more abnormal.
Looking at Chen Ge who had lost his mind, Doctor Gao thought for a long time before he wrote down the word 'recovered' on one of the pages of the file.
After he finished, he passed the patient's record to Doctor Sun. "You have been following him inside the brain maze, did you notice anything strange?"
"Everything is going according to the treatment plan. In a way, I can say it is very successful." The scar on Doctor Sun's face kept leaking blood. He looked quite scary.
Doctor Gao appeared to know some of the rumors about Doctor Sun as well. When he saw Doctor Sun also write down the word 'recovered' on the file, he sighed in relief. "Bring the file to the vice hospital director. Hopefully our first cooperation will be successful and hopefully this will be our last cooperation."
Then Doctor Gao opened the door to the sickroom. 5 hospital workers walked out from the locked rooms on both sides.
They worked together to drag Chen Ge towards the quarantine area. When only Doctor Sun was left inside the treatment room, he flipped through Chen Ge's file. His finger randomly tapped on the table, he knocked 6 times in total.
Chen Ge who was struggling with all his might heard the 6 knocks. He realized Doctor Gao's expression was slowly changing but Doctor Gao himself did not realize it.
"Night doctors have a kind of talent, I believe it is called Brain Maze. This kind of talent appears to be triggered by sound, it is similar to the ticking sound of the mechanical watch inside Doctor Gao's pocket …"
A speculation appeared in Chen Ge's mind. When Doctor Sun first entered the treatment room, he knocked on the door 6 times. At that time, Doctor Gao had not taken out his watch yet.
In other words, Doctor Sun had already made his move on Doctor Gao from the moment he entered the room.
Doctor Gao used his talent to treat Chen Ge but before Doctor Gao used his talent, Doctor Sun had already made his move on Doctor Gao.
The plan was very intricate but even with such a perfect plan, there was still an accident at the last moment.
There was now an additional memory of a third person in Chen Ge's mind. The child's skull appeared to have crawled into his mind through some kind of method.
To trick Doctor Gao, Chen Ge screamed at the top of his lungs. He was crazier than a madman. In the end, he was tied to the bed inside the quarantine zone.
Before Doctor Gao left, he poured out 5 white pills from the bottle and shoved them into Chen Ge's mouth.
After forcing Chen Ge to swallow them, he left the quarantine zone with the few hospital workers.
After screaming for a long time, Chen Ge slowly lost consciousness.
…
The morning sun shone on Chen Ge's face. He stared out the window silently. Last night was the most dangerous night he had ever experienced since he entered the hospital. If not for Doctor Sun, he would have already decided that he was the murderer.
A human's determination needed to be supported by some key character. If even Chen Ge started to doubt himself, then the chance of him winning was practically zero.
"Even though last night was dangerous, the reward was too much. I have gained a general understanding of this hospital. At the last moment inside the brain maze, when the blood vessels were fighting with the black threads, I managed to unlock many memory fragments from my past.
The most important thing is, I now know the location of the 7 glass jars. "
Many unfamiliar names and some unfamiliar experiences appeared in Chen Ge's mind.
"I need to go to the location of the 7 glass jars as soon as possible and try to leave this hospital as soon as possible."
He had already remembered many things but those memories could not be linked together, they were just scattered images.
Bang bang bang!
The knocking came. Doctor Gao and two hospital workers entered the room.
The three of them stood beside the bed. They did not say a word but they simply looked at Chen Ge.
"Doctor Gao …" Chen Ge showed a reluctance to face Doctor Gao. "Last night, did I …"
"For a long time to come, you probably won't be able to move back to a normal sickroom. You haven't forgotten what happened last night, have you? You should still remember the feeling of a sharp weapon slicing through their skin. " Doctor Gao looked at Chen Ge with disappointment. If not for the fact that Chen Ge had discovered Doctor Gao had written the word "recover" on the file, he probably would have been tricked by Doctor Gao.
"Stop talking." Chen Ge's emotions were instantly agitated. He seemed to be unable to accept that he had killed multiple people in one night.
"I know you are in pain, but if you are not willing to abandon those stories that you have made up, your life might be ruined just like that." Doctor Gao said earnestly, "This is the most exciting time of your life. Are you willing to become a monster that everyone avoids?"
"I just want to be like everyone else. I just want to live the simplest life and not have to suffer this kind of pain anymore."
"The source of your pain is those delusional memories. When all those memories disappear, you will be truly cured." Doctor Gao poured out five pills from the bottle. "Next, I will give you treatment every night to slowly erase your delusional past, but this treatment requires your full cooperation. In other words, you have to open your heart and truly be willing to erase your own memory."
Seeing Chen Ge's pained expression, Doctor Gao sighed. "Between delusion and reality, you can only choose one. Stop being so stupid."
After feeding the pills to Chen Ge, Doctor Gao left.
Chen Ge was tied to the bed. When it was time, Xu Wan would come to bring him food and wash his face and arms.
The Haunted House could not be seen from the quarantine room. The only person that Chen Ge could talk to was Xu Wan. Thankfully, Xu Wan never lost her patience with Chen Ge. She kept telling Chen Ge about the beauty of the outside world.
When night fell, Chen Ge was sent to the treatment room again.
Since Doctor Sun was not there, Chen Ge did not dare open his heart. He allowed Doctor Gao to enter his heart. Whenever he heard the ticking, he would be highly nervous.
Unable to drag Chen Ge into the brain maze, Doctor Gao had no choice but to use other methods of treatment. This continued for seven days.
Chen Ge's condition stabilized again. He was allowed to leave the quarantine room. With the accompaniment of the workers, he went to the garden to rest.
This was the first time he had left the hospital after seven days. Chen Ge sat on the bench that he used to rest. Not long after that, a white cat ran out from the bushes.
The cat appeared to be very worried about Chen Ge. Once it saw him, it charged at him.
When Chen Ge saw the white cat, he knew that his chance had come.
He avoided the workers' gaze and hugged the white cat's head. "A cat has appeared in the human world. You are the anomaly but also the key. Ol 'Bai, help me stall that worker. "
Chen Ge subconsciously called out the name Ol 'Bai. This was a name that he remembered last night. He had a feeling that this name might be related to the white cat.
Tilting its head, the white cat made a confused expression. It blinked its multi-colored eyes like it was saying, 'You appear to be a broken man.'
The worker saw the white cat and was approaching. Chen Ge did not want to miss this opportunity. The back of his hand voluntarily rubbed against the cat's paw.
To avoid harming Chen Ge, the white cat retracted its paw. However, Chen Ge started to toss the white cat at the worker. He shielded his arm like he had been scratched.
"How could there be a cat at the hospital?!" Chen Ge yelled at the worker first. He shouted the question out of the worker's mind.
While the worker was busy chasing after the white cat, Chen Ge returned to the third sick hall alone. He followed the route in his memory and came to the seventh floor.
"Time is limited, I need to hurry!"
Very few people came from the fifth floor of the third sick hall. The place was very quiet. Chen Ge did not run into any patients or doctors.
Pushing open the door to the director's office, a pungent stench drifted out from inside the room. Without hesitation, Chen Ge rushed into the room.
The layout of the office was similar to Chen Ge's memory, including the giant glass jar that was placed in the middle of the table.
Looking at the child's head inside the jar, the memory that belonged to a third person in Chen Ge's mind was activated. The world before his eyes changed at one second. The originally empty office was filled with endless black threads. Various kinds of malicious curses surrounded Chen Ge.
"Is this the real appearance of a hospital?"
Since he had already come this far, Chen Ge would not retreat. When he took a step forward, he realized the curses and black threads did not attack him but they were staring at something behind him.
Turning back to look, Chen Ge realized there was an illusion of a human head where he was standing earlier. This illusion was similar to the head inside the jar yesterday.
"This child's head followed me out from the brain maze? Aren't the things inside the brain maze all made up from memory? " Chen Ge had a feeling the head behind him was just an illusion made from memory. Someone had used this illusion to attract all the curses inside the office to create the condition for Chen Ge to enter the maze.
"I have a feeling other than Doctor Sun, there are other people helping me at this hospital, Doctor Sun is just being used by them."
In the blink of an eye, the world in Chen Ge's eyes returned to normal. He strode to the glass jar and reached out to touch it.
