Chapter 0165 – Who’s Playing Doctor

　　There were a lot of futons thrown in the middle of the gloomy corridor, bulging underneath as if they were hiding something.

　　Chen Ge casually lifted one with a hammer, and underneath the musty-smelling quilt was a dummy tied up with sheets and pillows.

　　The workmanship was rough, and the shape of a person could barely be seen.

　　What was more horrifying was that the pillow had a human face drawn on it with colored pencils, with eyes, nose, and split mouth, clearly like a child’s graffiti, but it made Chen Ge feel creepy.

　　”It shouldn’t be.”

　　Chen Ge resisted the urge to smash them flat with a hammer head and pondered.

　　”Those twenty-four dolls in the House of Horrors are more frightening than these dummies made of pillows and sheets no matter which way you look at it, I didn’t feel scared at all when I was facing those dolls, but when I stood next to these dummies, I always felt uneasy in my heart.”

　　He flipped the dummies, and on the back of the pillow, there was an unfamiliar person’s name written on it – Li Chunyan.

　　”How come there’s a name?” These dummies were like children playing house games; children would sometimes use dummies and muppets to act as their moms and dads, or use them to refer to someone in reality.

　　Casually sprinkling salt on the dummy’s face, Chen Ge observed the dummy for two to three minutes, the dummy didn’t show any changes, then he walked out a few steps away and lifted another bedding, underneath which also lay a dummy tied up in a pillow sheet.

　　”Zhang Qisi?” A name was similarly written on the back of the dummy.

　　Chen Ge looked towards the worn-out bedding piled up in the corridor and felt a chill at his back, “Is it true that there is a name behind every dummy? Are these dummies actually referring to living people?”

　　One by one, the bulging bedding in the corridor looked like a graveyard, Chen Ge’s hand holding the skull crushing hammer was sweating, and he felt that after completing this trial mission, his guts would become bigger than before.

　　Just after walking out a dozen meters away, the two bags of salt had already been scattered.

　　As it turned out, the salt wasn’t too effective against the filth, and instead of weakening, the uncomfortable aura in the corridor was getting stronger.

　　”It’s better to save the last bag of salt, we can’t waste any more.” Chen Ge would look back every few steps away, he was worried that he would encounter a classic scene from a horror movie, walking all the way with a row of dummies shakily following behind him.

　　His whole body muscles tensed, Chen Ge had already made up his mind, even if a dummy stood up behind him, he would rush over at the first opportunity, hammer it to pieces, and then make up for it with a killing knife.

　　”There’s no need to panic, I still have a lot of undercards that I haven’t used right now.” Chen Ge didn’t know if he was introducing himself to his water friends in the live broadcast room or comforting himself, in short, as he continued to go deeper and deeper into the third sick building, the popularity of the live broadcast room was climbing at a terrifying speed. On the contrary, Qin Guang’s place had already fallen into a bottleneck, and his popularity was waning, and he was now relying on the divine Great Rewards to support him.

　　The wards in the third ward building were different from the other two, all the wards were single rooms. What was rather bizarre was that there wasn’t even a single bed in the ward, and it seemed like it had never been inhabited.

　　”I heard Dr. Gao say that there are only ten wards in the third ward building, and there are only nine patients who have kept records, so what are these extra empty rooms used for?”

　　All of the wards were unnumbered, with uniform door panels and uniform white paint, but they never seemed to be open, so they shouldn’t be used to house patients.

　　”The first ward building is overcrowded, many beds are even arranged in the aisles, this third ward building is surprisingly empty, preferring to leave it empty rather than give it to the patients, are there any deeper reasons for this?”

　　Chen Ge walked very carefully, and when he walked to the middle of the fourth floor corridor, the stench in the air suddenly worsened.

　　In addition to the cold wind in his ears, there was also another kind of sound.

　　It was hard to describe, as if there were countless people breathing hard, trying to wake up from their nightmares.

　　As the flashlight shone around, the uneasiness in Chen Ge’s heart grew stronger, and with his back pressed tightly against the wall, he took out his cell phone and glanced at the time.

　　”Twelve o’clock midnight sharp!”

　　While Chen Ge was looking at his cell phone, the sound of a door being pushed open came from a certain room downstairs in the third sick building.

　　The feeling was very peculiar, the sound was clearly coming from downstairs, but it seemed to be ringing in the ears.

　　”The bloody door in the mirror of the horror house would open for a minute every midnight in the wee hours of the morning, is the door in this third sick building the same as the door in my haunted house?”

　　The door would appear at midnight, but it would not open of its own accord, when the sound of pushing sounded, it signaled that something had run out from behind the door.

　　”In the passage carved by Wang Haiming, it says that he completed his last rites in the bathroom, and the bathroom seems to be the only place in the rehabilitation center that has a relatively large mirror.”

　　After twelve o’clock, the entire sick building became not quite the same, as if a sleeping monster was awakening.

　　Coming to the deepest part of the fourth floor, Chen Ge stood at the entrance of the building and looked down, the dark staircase with one step extending into the darkness.

　　No one knew what was hidden inside, and it was unclear what would rush out from an unexpected angle in the next moment.

　　Chen Ge’s eyes danced gently as he stood at the entrance to the hallway grasping his tool hammer, pondering for a moment and turning off his flashlight.

　　The third sick building harbored mentally deranged patients, unjustly dead souls, and monsters that ran out from within the blood door, so it could be said that it was killing at every step.

　　In this situation, the bright light of the flashlight would expose himself and make him a living target.

　　Closing his eyes and opening them again, Chen Ge let his eyes adjust to the darkness before stepping on the stairs and walking towards the third floor.

　　This trial mission hadn’t been unproductive for Chen Ge from the beginning until now, at least his relationship with the white cat had gotten much better.

　　Originally, the white cat was indifferent to him, and after entering the depths of the corridor of the third sick building, the white cat even took the initiative to jump onto his shoulders, its claws tightly gripping his clothes and backpack, with an appearance that it would not let go of its claws even if it died.

　　”Don’t be afraid, everything is not out of control yet.” Chen Ge stroked the white cat’s head, and the grumpy white cat rarely resisted, a pair of heterochromatic cat pupils staring at the darkness in the distance.

　　Descending the stairs in the darkness, the steps seemed to become as if there were more of them, and it took Chen Ge a minute or two to move to the third floor.

　　With the windows sealed shut, the third floor was much more gloomy than the fourth floor, and one could only vaguely see a bulging bedding in the corridor.

　　”Freakface entered the third sickbay as if he had disappeared, and there wasn’t even a single shoe print on the floor. Where could he be hiding now? Hiding in one of the rooms? Or just hiding under the bedding, ready to sneak up on him?”

　　There was also a nurse’s station on the corner of the third floor, what was rather strange was that all the medicines and records inside the counters were neatly arranged, what made Chen Ge feel even stranger was that there was not a single speck of dust inside those counters, it was as if they had been in normal use.

　　Turning into the nurse’s station, Chen Ge found many dispensed pills on the counter, pills of different colors in a small white paper bag, with the name of each patient written on the bag.

　　”Li Chunyan? Zhang Qisi? Aren’t these two names the names posted behind the dummy on the fourth floor? Could it be that someone would dispense medicine to the dummy every night?” A somewhat absurd thought arose in Chen Ge’s heart; it was as if there was a child playing a game in this sick building who created dummies to act as patients and pretended to be a doctor himself to prescribe medication to cure them.

　　”Playing a game like this in the third sick building in the middle of the night?” Chen Ge looked at each name on the counter and always felt that he had overlooked something.
