"Door?" There was an obvious change in Meng Nan's voice. He seemed to have thought of something.
Meng Nan also had the picture that Chen Ge had sent him, but he had placed it at the bottom of the drawer, and there were several books on top of it.
When Chen Ge saw the picture at Hai Ming Apartments, he had been confused. This was the only memento that Meng Nan's mother had left for him. Even if it was not placed in the frame, it should have been kept somewhere safe.
However, Meng Nan seemed to be purposely avoiding it, hiding it in a place that he could not see.
He did not want to abandon it, but he did not dare face it. This was the biggest contradiction in his heart.
"Where did you see this picture?" Meng Nan's voice was hoarse, and his words slowed down.
The thing that he had been avoiding was brought up on the table by Chen Ge, and this time, he could not avoid it anymore.
"I was at the hospital in the picture. I entered your mother's former room …"
"Leave that place immediately!" Before Chen Ge finished, Meng Nan shouted.
"Leave? Looks like you've remembered something. "
There was another silence on the other end. Several seconds later, Meng Nan's voice came. "I don't know why I would say that, but my instinct tells me that it's very dangerous."
"The sick hall has been locked, and I can't leave. If not for the fact that I have no other choice, I wouldn't have called you." Chen Ge held the cleaver, and his eyes stared at the blood vessels that were still spreading toward Zhang Ya. "This is not just about you and me. Those madmen who have given up on treatment have returned here with their twisted worldview. They have lost their minds and imprisoned living people. They are armed with axes and saws. Can you imagine what they have done?"
"People have been murdered at the hospital?" Meng Nan's voice was filled with uncertainty. He seemed to be questioning himself. He wanted to say something, but he did not dare say it.
"I can tell you clearly that there is more than one victim. I found a lot of human hair here." Chen Ge did not know why Meng Nan was hesitating. "I was in a very dangerous situation myself. Monsters, patients, they chased after me with axes. I could not communicate with them at all."
After a long time, Meng Nan's voice finally came through the phone. "How do you want me to help you?"
"Awaken the other personality in your body! He's the one I'm looking for! "The stench in the air intensified, as if a monster had opened its mouth.
"Can you tell me why you're looking for him?" Meng Nan's voice was very low, mixed with a trace of complicated emotions.
Chen Ge laid his cards on the table. He did not want to waste any more time. "I want to close the door to Third Sick Hall's Room 3, and only your childhood persona knows how to close it. Call him out. I've found out everything that happened to you when you were young. I understand your pain, but there are some things that you have to face! "
"Close the door …" Meng Nan seemed to be talking to himself. "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I won't be able to help you."
Meng Nan rejected him decisively, and this was something that Chen Ge did not expect. "Why?"
"Because he is not with me." Meng Nan took a deep breath. "He has locked himself behind the door."
"Your childhood persona is on the other side of the door?" Chen Ge's brows were creased together.
"Yes, actually, he is the main persona. My memory started after I was four." Meng Nan said something that shocked Chen Ge. "The main persona was born in a mental hospital, and he treated sickness as normal. His world was different from normal people. Before he was four, he tried to change into a normal person, and his only support was his mother. But when he was four, his mother was murdered. After witnessing everything, he gave up on the normal world.
"Perhaps it was because he had never been treated kindly by the normal world, so he believed that the normal world that we accepted was the one that was truly twisted.
"He closed himself up inside his mind, and then I appeared.
"He never communicated with me, until one day. The director of the rehabilitation center and a doctor with the surname Chen came to find me. They hoped that I could help them close the so-called 'door'.
"At the time, I was still very young. Before I knew anything, I was brought back to the mental hospital that the main persona once lived in.
"They asked me many strange questions, and even now, I can't answer those questions.
"That night, they arranged for me to be placed in Room 3. I don't know what happened after that.
"There appeared to be sleeping pills in the glass. I fell into a deep sleep, and they probably used that opportunity to awaken the main persona.
"When I woke up again, it was already midnight."
"I opened my eyes blurrily and saw that I was lying in bed, but everything around me was blood red, and the weirdest thing was that the main persona was standing next to me.
"He told me not to tell anyone about these things, and then he pointed at the clock in the corridor outside the door. He said that no matter how tired I was, I couldn't sleep before midnight.
"Then he walked me out of the room, and he stayed behind to close the door.
"After that, he never appeared again, but sometimes, some memories that do not belong to me will appear in my mind.
"I originally wanted to bury these things deep inside my heart and not tell anyone because until now, I still can't tell whether they are just my imagination or not.
"My condition is very similar to schizophrenia and paranoia, but everything is too real. As I grew older, I struggled with self-doubt, and that is why I majored in psychology."
Meng Nan's voice was filled with pain, and even as an outsider, Chen Ge could hear the torment in the man's voice.
He had to pretend to be a normal person and live a normal life, and that was already a challenge for him.
"That makes sense. No wonder a mirror monster could bully him." Chen Ge held the phone, and his heart was unsettled.
"The condition that Meng Nan mentioned is possible. I've detected a third persona in him, and it appears to be random and fragmented, like scattered memory fragments." Dr. Gao took the phone. He did not understand the conversation between Chen Ge and Meng Nan, so he could not be of much help.
"Hmm, he shouldn't be lying to me."
The only person who could close the door had entered the door more than ten years ago, and the door had indeed been closed for several years. It was not until four years ago when the asylum was closed that it was opened again. Could it be that something had happened to Men Nan's main persona inside the door?
Chen Ge wanted to retreat. This building was too haunted. Even with Zhang Ya, it was not safe. "I should retreat first."
He lifted his head to look at the middle of the corridor. The Yin energy blew at Zhang Ya's bloody shirt.
