Chapter 1096 – The Monster Carrying All the Grudges
Entering ward 0011, Chen Ge realized that this room was not quite the same as the previous two wards.
The internal furniture and decorations were clearly similar, but it was so oppressive that just standing in the living room would give you the feeling that you couldn’t catch your breath.
That feeling of oppression was coming from all directions, as if there was something very dangerous left on every piece of furniture.
”You two don’t just touch the furniture in the house, something isn’t quite right with this room.”
The wall skins were painted layer after layer, but they still couldn’t hide the large and massive blood clots on the wall, the floor tiles were neatly laid, but between the cracks of the floor tiles were black and red, and a large amount of blood stains that were very difficult to clean up were left, and all kinds of details indicated that something extremely horrible had happened in this room, and that there had been more than one incident of such a nature.
”Three wards, one more frightening than the other, the Cursed Hospital is like raising a parasite, constantly throwing rag dolls into the midst of the other wards, stimulating the rag doll’s intrinsic abilities and completely distorting its world.”
Chen Ge walked around room 0011, he searched a lot of places but couldn’t find the diary, “Strange, the patients in this room didn’t leave any clues?”
Most of the world behind the door was the memories of the person who pushed the door, Xiang Nuan’s door was rather special, his memories and the memories of the Underworld Fetus overlapped, just like those buildings in the Jiuhong District and the Jinhua District, intertwined with each other and indistinguishable from each other, that’s why there was a situation where the two worlds overlapped like this.
”These wards should all be the memories of the rag doll, as long as it has read the patient’s diary, then the patient’s diary should appear here right, unless patient 0011 doesn’t have the habit of recording his condition.”
Chen Ge’s state was getting worse and worse, his vision became blurry and his body seemed to be on the verge of being assimilated into the darkness.
But fortunately this time, there was also Wen Qing who followed him behind the door, the world behind the door did not have any effect on Wen Qing, whenever he was in a trance, Wen Qing would always be the first to remind him.
It took half an hour for Chen Ge to find Patient 0011’s diary underneath a piece of hollowed out floor tile, which was tattered and torn, with every page soaked in blood and traces of being burned, like Zhang Ya’s bedtime story book.
”The person who wrote the diary seemed to have tried to destroy it many times, and only decided to hide it in the middle of the room after failing to succeed.”
Chen Ge sat on the sofa, placed the skull-crushing hammer by his legs, flipped open the diary, and read it.
”Many people said that I was born to be a psychiatrist, that I possessed countless so-called qualities suitable for being a psychiatrist, but only I know that those were just things that I intentionally displayed in order to become a psychiatrist.”
”I chose this profession not because I wanted to rescue lost people, but just to heal myself.”
”I knew from the beginning that I was sick, and as I studied more and more, I became more and more certain.”
”Today, *Month*, *Year*, was a big day for me, I took off my white coat and put on a hospital gown, and the hospital locked me up with a monster that reeked of stench.”
”I hate keeping a diary, but diaries are one of the treatments in this hospital, I don’t know if I should tell the truth or a lie, so why don’t we play a game of truth and lies to see if my doctors will be driven crazy by me.”
Chen Ge looked at the font on the diary and vaguely felt that there was something familiar, he seemed to have seen it somewhere, but couldn’t recall it if he thought about it carefully.
”Everyone has the most precious part of their memories in their heart, for me, my daughter and wife who just learned to talk are all I have.”
”My story is pretty cheesy, in order to give them a better life, I chose this private hospital located at the border of Xinhai and Hanjiang.”
”Frankly speaking, I didn’t even know there was such a hospital around Hanyang before I received the invitation. Because it was too far away from my home, I wanted to turn it down, but the compensation they offered was just too much.”
”After skipping the intern stage, on my first day of employment, I realized that this hospital was different from regular hospitals in that there were only a few doctors on the day shift and patients were barely visible, but there were many doctors on the night shift.”
”The remote location of this hospital made it very difficult to get a taxi, and it took me forty minutes to walk to the nearest bus stop. On the morning of my third day of employment, the leadership asked me if I would like to live in the middle of the hospital, and I decisively refused.”
”In the first two days, I had already discovered a lot of problems, this hospital has a lot of doctors, at least there are a lot of pictures of doctors on the wall, but in the whole two days I only saw a few of them, and all of them were newcomers, and the one who had been working the longest wasn’t more than a month.”
”The pay is good, there’s hardly anything going on during the day shift, and the income is completely disproportionate to the effort, so if this isn’t a charity, it means they want to claim something else from the doctors.”
”By this time I was actually ready to quit, the leader saw that I wanted to leave and put me on night duty for one day and then billed me normally for those days.”
”He didn’t retain, which made me feel uneasy; there were plenty of doctors on night shift, not even close to me, so why would he put me on night shift?”
”Anything that doesn’t make logical sense has hidden dangers, I’m not going to risk my life for that little bit of money, and maybe it seems silly to others that I don’t want to be paid for working three days for nothing, I won’t argue with that.”
”There was no night shift, I didn’t even finish the day shift on the third day, I left the leader’s office and went home.”
”My wife thinks I’m delusional and I would love that to be the case, but then something happened that made me realize that it was all true.”
”Whether you are a patient, or a doctor reading this diary at this time, I am here to give you a piece of advice, escape by any means necessary, if you look for the closest thing to hell on earth, this is it.”
”After I escaped home, all kinds of curses followed me, and a strange and bizarre thing happened to me and my family.”
”Those things couldn’t be explained by science, and with all the means at my disposal I was only able to save myself, and couldn’t keep my family safe at all.”
”I knew what that hospital was trying to do, so one night I went there again.”
”This time, I became the night doctor, and I understood the meaning of those pictures on the wall.”
”My story up to this point was at a normal stage, and what happened next gradually became so outrageous that it could not be explained by common sense, and I gradually developed a feeling that perhaps in this hospital I would be able to cure what was happening to me.”
The diary was written with several pages torn out of the center, and what was missing would have been the doctor’s description of his life on the night shift.
”Specific information about the hospital was torn out… did the rag doll do it? Or did someone enter the building earlier?”
Chen Ge continued and began to look back.
”I managed to integrate into the midst of this hospital and became a very good night doctor, and in order to explore options for curing my own illness, I started doing some interesting experiments on patients. Of course, I was presumably the only one in the entire hospital who was serious about saving them, while the other doctors in this hospital were steering them towards more desperate places.”
”As time went on, my abilities were recognized by all, and one night I finally met the director of this hospital.”
”He was a very serious man, with a face that was so ordinary that I would forget it after seeing it, I had a bad impression of him, but as to why it was bad even I couldn’t tell you myself, he seemed to have tampered with my memory.”
”The dean talked to me for a long time just because of one thing, he asked me to be in charge of patient numbered 10, this is my first contact with patients numbered in the top ten. I’ve heard rumors about these patients in the hospital before, but I’ve never seen them before, just like God often hangs heaven on his lips, but all the people who are alive have never seen heaven is the same reason.”
”I was grateful for the Dean’s trust, but I could never die, I still had my family.”
”That was the first time I went behind the door and the first time I saw ‘hell’.”
”The top ten numbered patients were all behind that door, and the hospital behind the door was ten times bigger than the one outside.”
The diary was torn out a few more pages by this point, Chen Ge was helpless and could only continue to read down the page with a stiff upper lip.
”I cured patient number ten, but my own illness was exposed, and on this very day, they took off my white coat, and I was no longer Dr. Gao in the mouths of the patients, but patient number 0011 in the mouths of the doctors.”
”I don’t have my name anymore, but I won’t forget my past.”
Seeing this, Chen Ge’s heart seized up, and he stared at those three words on the diary, his eyes not blinking for a long time.
”Dr. Gao? Is that the Dr. Gao I know?”
Doing some math, the shadow left when Chen Ge was around six years old, and it was put in the hospital in the form of a rag doll.
It was mentioned in the diary that Dr. Gao’s wife hadn’t died at the time, and that his daughter had just learned to talk.
It is later mentioned that after working as a night doctor for a while, Dr. Gao was locked up as a patient with a plutonic fetus.
Chen Ge was immediately twenty-seven years old, and Ruxue Gao was twenty-two years old, so it was possible for this all to hold true when calculated from age.
”This 0011 can’t really be Dr. Gao, right?” Chen Ge looked at the words on the diary, and that feeling of familiarity grew stronger: “It does have a slight resemblance to Dr. Gao’s words.”
I know I’m hated too, there are a lot of people in the hospital who want to kill me, they put me in with this monster, supposedly because they want me dead.”
”Maybe in their eyes I was just a tool to irritate this monster, they all thought I was bound to die, in reality they all underestimated me.”
”A monster is called a monster because they see it according to the human way of thinking, perhaps in the eyes of a monster, how can a human not be a monstrous and pathetic monster?”
”In order not to be killed by my roommate, I began to treat it systematically, and I’ve never given it my full attention as I am now.”
”I’m not going to cure it completely, but I’m going to do everything I can to turn it into my helper and escape from this hellhole.”
”Everyone calls it a monster, but I’m willing to call it what it is. It took me a night to finally learn its name, the monster named itself Chen Ge.”
”Whether I can escape or not, I’m afraid I’ll remember this name for the rest of my life.”
The diary in the back was intermittent and missing many pages, exactly how they did it Chen Ge wasn’t sure, he only knew one thing.
With the help of Dr. Gao, the distorted worldview of the Underworld Fetus became a little more normal; it was no longer a monster dominated by hatred and curses, but rather a “deformed human being” with a different way of thinking than normal people.
The doctors at the hospital were expecting Dr. Gao to be killed, but weeks passed and Dr. Gao was still alive.
He even made contact with other patients in full view of the doctors.
In Dr. Gao’s later diary, Patient No. 6 and Patient No. 5 also appeared a few times. A large number of patients and a very few doctors cooperated with each other, and they prepared for a long time, and finally found an opportunity.
The diary doesn’t go into detail about what that opportunity was, but from Dr. Gao’s mere words it is clear that that opportunity had something to do with patient number two.
There was a change in the door, and Dr. Gao decisively seized this rare opportunity as he prepared to escape with the rag doll.
They were almost close to succeeding, but unfortunately still underestimated the horror of that hospital.
Dr. Gao’s diary doesn’t say how he was captured, he only records the consequences of his capture.
The ragdoll was put into a black iron door, and Dr. Gao was inflicted with a curse that almost killed him.
An ordinary person might have given up by this point, but not Dr. Gao, who chose to hibernate for the time being and would do anything to stay alive.
Time loses its meaning in the world behind the door, the blood on Dr. Gao’s diary is getting more and more, something very bad is happening to him, but his diary is full of optimistic words.
It wasn’t simply a good state of mind anymore, he had completely embraced the kind of disease he had in his body, he no longer wanted to cure it, but chose to identify with it.
There was no detailed mention of that disease in the diary, Chen Ge guessed that it might be Dr. Gao’s biggest secret, after all, he had once seen the crazy Dr. Gao in Liwan Town, wrapped in chains all over his body, and a bit ridiculously strong.
The dates on the diary were all blotted out, and there was no telling how long it had been before Dr. Gao waited for a second chance.
What this second chance was the diary was similarly unclear, only vague references to patient number one and the Scarlet City.
Learning from the lessons of the last time, the well-prepared Dr. Gao escaped from that hospital with the Underworld Fetus and many patients.
There wasn’t much in the diary, but it brought Chen Ge a deep touch, one ring after another, if all his speculations were not wrong, then a lot of questions could be made clear.
”When Dr. Gao heard my name from Gao Ruxue’s mouth, he was very interested in me, and when he did the mission of Twilight Middle School, he would still guide me in the middle of the night, in addition, I also found a large amount of information about the house of horrors in Dr. Gao’s house, he started investigating my haunted house from a very long time ago.”
”Thinking deeper, Dr. Gao’s wife’s death might have something to do with that hospital, his layout from birth calculations to death shouldn’t be purely for the purpose of resurrecting his wife, maybe he also thought about revenge.”
Closing the diary, Chen Ge’s mind floated back to the words that Dr. Gao had said in the underground corpse vault.
”Good corresponds to evil, and sin corresponds to punishment, so is it ghosts that are opposed to people? Or is it a god?”
Knowing Dr. Gao’s past, Chen Ge had a new understanding of these words.
