Chapter 0640 – The Secret of the Hospital

　　Chen Ge’s words struck a chord with Scissors.

　　He had grown up in an orphanage as a child, withdrawn and very much out of place, with his only friend being his brother.

　　When he was bullied, when he was treated unfairly, when he was in pain and despair and couldn’t find the meaning of living, his brother would stand up to help him and shield him from the wind and rain.

　　For Scissors, his brother was the most special person in his life, and it was because of this that after his brother’s disappearance, he came to investigate despite everything.

　　Looking at the far away Chen Ge, Scissors recalled the scene just now, when he was cornered by the filth in the hospital and he had all but given up completely, Chen Ge appeared.

　　That warm voice dragged him from hell to heaven.

　　Life’s great ups and downs, although Scissors did not say anything, but in his heart, he was very grateful.

　　Due to his status, he didn’t open his mouth to thank Chen Ge, but could only think in his heart that he must repay the other party once he had the chance in the future.

　　The colder the surface, the hotter the person may actually be inside, because the heat of their life is wrapped in a thick ice shell, and only when the shell is shattered will they reveal their true emotions.

　　Gently licking his lips, Scissors twisted his head to spit out the black dog’s blood in his mouth as he followed behind Chen Ge, vaguely seeing a hint of his own brother’s shadow from Chen Ge.

　　”Calm down, he might be a real homicidal maniac, it’s better not to get too close, when he’s in distress, I’ll give him a hand.”

　　Scissors’ opinion of Chen Ge had changed, and he followed Chen Ge silently.

　　Realizing that Scissors had become honest, Chen Ge grinned and snickered, in his opinion Scissors was a rare talent, it didn’t matter if he was timid, having the courage to put everything on the line was the most important thing.

　　”Hey, I found several different shoe prints downstairs, besides you, there should be other passengers in the hospital, have you seen them before?” Chen Ge twisted his head to inquire about Scissors.

　　”I came in alone.” Scissors muttered in his mind what the shoe prints were. He hadn’t paid any attention to it at all when he came in, but since Chen Ge had mentioned it, in order to maintain his image, he had to go along with Chen Ge and say, “I’ve seen the shoe prints that you mentioned …… By the way, when I was on the second floor and fighting those monsters in a life and death struggle, I had heard footsteps coming from the second floor safe passage, and they probably ran in that direction.”

　　Chen Ge nodded as he stared at the scissors for a while.

　　”What are you looking at?” Scissors was a bit distracted.

　　”That pair of red high-heeled shoes on bus 104 is gone, I remember that every time you took a step, two footsteps would appear, that thing should be following you.” Another point that Chen Ge valued the scissors was in the red high heels, those shoes even the smiling man was a bit intimidated, at least the red dress to start.

　　”That voice disappeared after I entered the corridor on the left, she seemed to have sensed the danger and left early.” Scissors raised the scissors in her hand and stared at the sharp cutting edge, “Obviously, she cowered, chickened out, and got scared.”

　　Chen Ge wanted to cover Scissors’ mouth, there should be a limit to pretending, really heard by that high-heeled shoe, Scissors probably didn’t even know how she died.

　　”Okay, when I didn’t say it, let’s go find the other passengers first.” Chen Ge led Scissors out of the room, the doctor and the drunkard were guarding the outside, those two were too scared to approach after seeing that it was Scissors who was covered in blood.

　　In their eyes, the Scissors at this moment perfectly fit the image of a psychopathic murderer in their minds, covered in blood, with a sickly smile, revealing a look of enjoyment, as if the pain and killing could give him an unprecedented pleasure.

　　”It always feels like I’ve fallen into a wolf’s den.” The drunken man stood alone on the outskirts of the stairs, his face was pale, looking at the blood on the bottom of his shoes, he had the feeling of wanting to vomit, out of all the people, he was the one who acted the most like a normal person.

　　”You just fought the ghosts and monsters alone for so long, you must be exhausted, just leave the rest of the finishing work to me.” Chen Ge thoughtfully gave Scissors an excuse and started searching room by room.

　　The hospital only had three floors, which wasn’t that big, but Chen Ge searched very carefully and it took half an hour to turn around.

　　They found the shoe prints of a family of three and a boy’s shoe in the safe passage on the second floor, and the shoe prints ran along the safe passage to the other side of the hospital.

　　The family of three happened to be on the wrong side of Chen Ge and ran down the stairs on the other side, sneaking out after Chen Ge broke down the door.

　　”These guys are so unlikeable, we came to save them, but they ended up not saying hello and just running away on their own, so selfish.” The drunken man substituted himself into Chen Ge’s role, he felt that if he were Chen Ge he definitely wouldn’t have come to meddle.

　　”I don’t blame them, running away out of fear, it’s human nature.”

　　”You’re quite open-minded.” The drunk felt that Chen Ge’s mindset was really good, through this period of time, he realized that Chen Ge was just a good old man who didn’t care about anything: “The people we want to save have already left, shouldn’t we leave as well?” .

　　”There’s no rush, we’ve made a general turn around the hospital, and there are three places in it that deserve our attention.” Chen Ge stood still and thought back for a while, “The first room on the second floor to the left, there is a diary inside that records how a patient was driven mad by the ghosts in the hospital and eventually turned into a ghost, that shouldn’t be an isolated case.”

　　Chen Ge certainly knew that it wasn’t an exception, that ghost with both legs wrapped in plaster, one eye poked out, and a miserable appearance was currently in the middle of Yan Dainian’s comic book.

　　Guided by the scissors, he went straight to the closet as soon as he entered the room and quickly found the ghost that was residing in the diary.

　　”But what does this have to do with us?” The drunk always felt that this hospital was more dangerous than the “kennel” he had been in before.

　　”Patients who play the game of hide-and-seek will be left in the hospital forever after they die and become part of the game, but have you ever thought about this question – who was the first initiator of the game of hide-and-seek?” Chen Ge looked at the other passengers, “There will always be the first person who proposes to play the game, followed by a constant stream of patients being left behind.”

　　Seeing that several other passengers looked at each other in dismay, seemingly not having considered this issue at all, Chen Ge completely gave up on questioning them, the two sides thought about the issue from completely different perspectives, it was a difference in cognitive level.

　　”Just now I said that there are three places in the hospital that are worth paying attention to, the room where the diary is located is the first place to pay attention to, the second place to pay attention to is the archive room, just now I casually looked up the information about the accidental sick room, and I found out a very strange point, all the patients who stayed in the room where the diary is located ended up in a very bad way, and that room is therefore also known by the nurses and the doctor called the 201 that needs to be avoided.”

　　Chen Ge didn’t care about the reactions of the other few people and said to himself, “The records on the file are very clear, the first time something happened to Ward 201 was five years ago, and coincidentally that was the same year that this private hospital received a patient who was transferred from another hospital.”

　　He took out a file from his backpack, it was covered with stains, most of the contents were not clearly visible, and the name of the hospital where the patient had been treated was obscured, only the word “Hai” could be vaguely seen.

　　”Are you familiar with the name of this hospital?”

　　Chen Ge looked at the burns doctor, and the other shook his head, “There’s only one word, it’s too hard to tell.”

　　”Last time we came over on bus 104, there were a few female patients in hospital gowns on the bus, do you still remember?” Chen Ge stared at the doctor.

　　”I have an impression.” At Chen Ge’s reminder, the doctor remembered, “The name of the hospital on their hospital gowns also seemed to have a sea character in it.”

　　”That’s right.” When Chen Ge first saw those female patients, he suspected that they were related to another four-star trial mission in the eastern suburb of Jiujiang, the Cursed Hospital, and the reason why Ward 201 was abnormal now was precisely because it had received a patient from a suspected cursed hospital five years ago, which meant that hide-and-seek could be that four-star horror scenario in which A continuation of some kind of curse.

　　This discovery was nothing to others, but it was crucial to Chen Ge, the four-star scene and the three-star scene were on two completely different levels, and any bit of useful clues were very important.

　　”But even if we know it’s related to that hospital, this won’t help us escape from Liwan Town.” The drunkard was very truthful, he only thought about getting out alive.

　　”You can talk about it after reading this.” Chen Ge flipped the file to the end, which recorded the transferred patient information.

　　That patient transferred over was a six and a half year old child, the doctor’s diagnosis was that he suffered from rabies, and when he had an attack he needed to be immobilized in a hospital bed, he would scream in pain and deform his body.

　　Even when he was awake, the child behaved abnormally, often saying strange things, such as telling everyone around him that he was being chased by a very scary thing, and that he must not let the other side find him, and that he must hide.

　　If that was all, the doctors wouldn’t have specifically kept his diagnosis separate.

　　After the boy’s death, the horrors begin to unfold.

　　First, the boy’s body disappeared from the hospital morgue and has not been found until now, followed by the fact that the nurses on night duty often saw children running in the hospital corridors, and words like – come and find me ah – would inexplicably appear in the printed documents.

　　This incident was not taken seriously at first, until a caretaker died in the hospital morgue, no one knew why he went to the morgue in the middle of the night, the police just saw a case sheet on the back of the body, which was written crookedly with a few words – come to me ah.

　　Since the death of the caretaker, a strange rumor has begun to circulate in the hospital, as long as the back of the person who has been on the back of that sheet of paper, to go to play hide-and-seek with that child.

　　The news should have been blocked, the file didn’t talk about what countermeasures the hospital side had taken, all the information related to the boy was only this.

　　Closing the file, Chen Ge swept his gaze over the other few passengers, “Some of you should have been pasted, if we don’t break the curse, even if we leave Liwan Town, our situation will still be dangerous in the future.”

　　”Then what do you think we should do now?” Scissors panicked, he clearly remembered that he had been pasted on his back.

　　”Now we’ll go to the third place of note – the morgue, the caretaker died there and the boy’s body disappeared there, we should be able to get something there.” Chen Ge stroked the white cat’s head and carried the skull crushing hammer to open the way in front of him, he only found two remnants of souls in the entire hospital, which made him a little disappointed.

　　”But if we don’t find a way to break the curse even in the morgue ……,” Scissors’ face changed slightly, he was a little pretentious.

　　”It’s a matter of life and death, I suggest that we all get together then and take a look at the situation first.” Chen Ge casually said to Scissors, “I live in the western suburb of New Century Paradise, you can come and find me then, so we can take care of each other.”

　　Scissors gently nodded and silently memorized the address Chen Ge said in his mind.

　　”Alright, let’s go over and take a look now.” Several people came to the first floor and entered the right side of the hospital in the safe passage.

　　The morgue was on the first floor, and as Chen Ge led the other passengers to the door of the morgue, he suddenly stopped.

　　The lock on the door had fallen to the ground, and the iron door was half-open, as if something had just gone in.

　　”Hospital morgues usually have locked doors.” The doctor whispered to Chen Ge, “There’s something inside, be careful.”

　　”En, you guys stay close to me.” There was no absolutely safe place in the building shrouded in blood mist, and Chen Ge didn’t want other people to have accidents, so he could only ask them to follow him all the way.

　　Pushing open the iron door, the chilling aura instantly surged in from all directions, Chen Ge scanned left and right to memorize the layout of the morgue in his mind, thinking that he might be able to use it when designing his own scenes in the future.

　　”Brother, there’s no need to be so desperate, right?” It was the first time for the drunkard to enter the hospital morgue, and he grabbed the arm of the doctor next to him.

　　”If you want to break the curse, don’t be afraid.” Chen Ge had spent a night in an underground corpse vault, and the morgue was just a small scene for him.

　　Walking towards the inside alone, Chen Ge realized that the place seemed to have just had a melee, with many iron beds where the corpses were parked overturned and some white cloths thrown haphazardly on the ground.

　　”What is this?” Chen Ge suddenly realized that there were blood stains remaining on certain few white cloths, he shook the white cloths apart, and on top of it was the outline of a blood-red humanoid.

　　”Looking at the size it looks like a six or seven year old child.” Chen Ge gestured at the white cloth, “It seems like someone smashed this child directly onto the white cloth and left such a blood-colored outline, who could have done this? This boy who is suspected to have escaped from the cursed hospital should be the most terrifying presence in this private hospital, the source of the hide-and-seek game, and he would be abused so easily?”

　　After searching for a while longer, Chen Ge found a strange blood-colored shoe print on the white cloth, which seemed to be left by high heels.

　　”The red high heels didn’t follow the scissors, but ran into the morgue? She directly solved the boy in the hospital?” Chen Ge walked to the innermost part of the morgue, he saw that a certain window for air exchange had been broken, and there were still a lot of squirming sticky blood around the window frame, “They left through here?”

　　Chen Ge looked at the broken window, he realized that he had seriously underestimated the strength of the red high heels, the other party was able to chase the boy and fight, even among the red clothes they should be relatively strong.

　　”It’s a pity, I came one step too late and only found two remnants. I hope the high heels don’t get the boy killed, I was counting on getting some information about the four-star terror scene out of his mouth.”
