"We … Abyss … Death … Bone … Nerve … Fruit … Die together …"
Gu Jun repeated it softly. Although he could not fully understand the meaning of this sentence, he could feel the desolation in it.
As a medical student, he knew that if he wrote "death" in the medical diary, it would really mean death. It would not be a metaphor or something like that. Furthermore, this paragraph was written at the last part of the three-page diary. This could be the final result of the diagnosis and treatment. "Die together."
"Die together, die together." Gu Jun murmured a few times, tasting an indescribable horror.
The handwriting of these three pages seemed steady, but in fact, the darkness revealed was even heavier than that of the incomplete atlas.
In the atlas, there was still panic, hesitation, and pain; but this diary had already accepted despair, only waiting for death.
"What disease is the diagnosis and treatment in the diary?" Gu Jun pondered. Is it related to the Malformed Banyan Disease? Or is it related to the abnormal creature?
He thought for a while and read for a while. However, he could not find any useful information in the other paragraphs of the diary, so he closed the diary and the system panel.
"I feel like there are some details in the basement illusion that I did not notice, but it is a very important detail …"
Gu Jun patted his heavy head. This was not the first time he had this feeling. He also had the same feeling in the laboratory illusion.
What was going on with these illusions? Was there a pattern to their appearance?
Gu Jun pondered this question again. "The dream in Gu Rong Village should not be the same thing as the illusion. The first illusion was at the bottom of Longkan Seabed, right? But that time was different. I could not remember any specific scene after that. There are a total of three that I can remember. "
The laboratory illusion, the corpse pool illusion, and the basement dissection table illusion.
What is the common point of these three illusions?
"The same location." Gu Jun first grasped this idea. He triggered the dilapidated laboratory illusion in the laboratory, the corpse pool illusion in the body storage room, and the basement dissection table illusion in the dissection table. The same location might be one of the conditions, but there were other conditions.
"Why didn't the basement illusion appear when I was dissecting the body of the Malformed Banyan Disease patient?"
Gu Jun felt like he understood something. It was not enough to stand by the dissection table and dissect the patient himself. He needed a more direct connection with the illusion.
The link to the laboratory illusion could be the phrase "fruit of darkness". Now that the video had been uncovered, he realized that he had actually encountered that sentence long ago at the bottom of the Longkan Seabed. When it was triggered in the laboratory, he was brought into the illusion.
The connection of the corpse pool illusion was the remains of the Malformed Banyan Disease patients. He could now confirm that the bodies soaking in the corpse pool were the remains of the bereavement stage victims of the Banyan Malformation Disease. They were separated by chains to prevent them from sticking together. They should be dead, but they still had the scratching reflex.
The connection to the basement was naturally that incomplete atlas, and it was dissecting the same creature.
The words, the scene of the corpse, and the diagrams all existed in the brain, in the subconscious, conscious, and memories.
"That's it." The more Gu Jun thought about it, the clearer it became.
The first condition was to be in a location with the same function, or there was a key setting such as the dissection table. The second condition was to have a direct connection in the brain. The third condition was to have a similar situation. The previous conditions were the experiment, the corpse transport, and the dissection.
The appearance of the three illusions met all three conditions at the same time.
This might not be the whole pattern, but it seemed like he could try to actively trigger it.
"The content of the three diary pages …" Gu Jun rolled his eyes. "It should be the author's doctor trying his best to treat the patients, but to no avail. In the end, he could only watch the patients die one by one. Now that I have a direct connection in the brain, what I need is the same location and similar situation. "
Thinking of this, an idea suddenly surged in his mind. Would it be possible to witness the death of a patient in the hospital?
Gu Jun's heart raced. Once this idea was born, he could no longer suppress it.
The illusions could give him more information and a better understanding of all this. Perhaps there was an important function that he was not aware of.
If he could take the initiative, he should try to do so.
"I'll give it a try." Gu Jun muttered. He took out his phone to check the time. It was almost seven o'clock in the evening. In the WeChat group, Professor Gu and the others had not sent any new messages. Obviously, the skills competition had not ended today. They had not left the stadium and their phones had not returned.
Gu Jun went to turn off the rice cooker. He carried the whole pot of soup and poured it into the drain on the balcony. He then poured the boiled mouse carcasses back into the medical garbage bag. Then, he put on his student ID, put on his white coat again, and left the dormitory with the kangaroo carcass. As for the rice cooker, he would leave it to Zixuan to clean.
Outside the dormitory building, Gu Jun threw the garbage bag into a yellow medical garbage can. These mouse carcasses would be sent to be incinerated, leaving no trace.
Although the safest way was to eat them himself, he could not do it.
Then, Gu Jun quickly rode his bicycle to the Eastern University Affiliated Hospital on the west side of the campus. He quickly walked into the outpatient and inpatient complex.
It was dinner time. There were not many patients in the outpatient hall on the first floor. Doctors and nurses were also rare. It was somewhat quiet.
Gu Jun strolled around the outpatient hall and found nothing. He then went to the emergency department, which was still very noisy at night, but still found nothing. Life and death in the hospital. Every day, patients passed away in different departments, but he could not encounter them all at once.
But there was another place...
The morgue.
According to Gu Jun's understanding, when a patient died, the body would be left in the ward for one to two hours, leaving time for family members to say goodbye. Then, it would be transported to the morgue by the staff of the morgue, and then arranged with the family to be sent to the funeral home. This could vary from the same day to a few days.
Those bodies that were controversial and needed to be autopsied were sent directly to the forensic identification center, which was the forensic building, and not to the morgue.
Because of this, hospitals of all sizes, whether it was the morgue in the building or the independent morgue, did not have much security measures. It was only guarded by one or two middle-aged security guards, plus a few staff to transport the body. After all, no one would go to that kind of place for no reason.
The Eastern University Affiliated Hospital did not have an independent morgue. The morgue was located on the basement floor of the general building, connected to the parking lot, and the corpse transport car could directly reach the entrance.
Gu Jun took the elevator to the basement floor, put on a mask, shook his white coat, and walked to the morgue door, as if nothing had happened.
"Huh?" A security guard at the security desk at the entrance glanced at the young doctor and walked in. The security guard was a little confused. Usually, except for the family of the deceased, corpse transport staff, and funeral home staff, no doctor would enter the morgue.
"Looking for trouble," the security guard muttered and continued to watch the short video on his phone.
