Chapter 1139: Escaping from the Cursed Hospital
The western-style villa was filled with human faces, and patterns related to the human body, and there was a very eerie feeling being in it.
The house hadn’t been entered for a long time, but there wasn’t a single speck of dust to be seen, it was very clean and seemed to be cleaned every day.
Red High Heels walked alone in front of her as if she had been here before, covered in bandages she walked straight to the center of the hall and stopped next to an indoor fountain.
”You guys pay attention, wait and guard all the exits, don’t let anything inside the house escape.” Chen Ge mixed in amongst a group of red suits without the slightest sense of incongruity, his expression was even similar to those of the red suits.
The smell of blood and potion in the air was getting thicker and thicker, and large swaths of red blood began to surface on the walls, giving people the feeling as if they were about to tear the entire building apart.
Tears of blood flowed from the human faces in those drawings on the walls, and their eyes slowly turned and stared at the red high heels.
It was as if everything related to the human body in the house came to life, and the villa revealed itself as it really was, and it was as if the place was piled up with human bodies.
Throughout the process, the red high heels did not have any reaction, she stood in front of the fountain, her eyes staring silently at the fountain that had dried up and broken down.
After about a few minutes, the fountain resounded with the sound of water flowing, and several carvings of women’s heads on the inner wall opened their mouths, and the fishy-smelling blood began to be madly injected into the middle of the fountain pool.
The pungent odor of the blood, and the exquisite carvings on the fountain formed a huge contrast.
The fountain returned to normal and the blood splashed everywhere, as if it had put a blood-colored veil over everyone and everything.
”This red suit seems to be preparing to trap us.” Men Nan whispered, although he wasn’t strong, he had seen a lot and had a very flexible mind.
”Trying to trap ten red clothes, her heart is really big.”
The red high heels next to the fountain also noticed the abnormality, she continued to walk forward, and with every step the bandages on her body slipped off partially.
Strange and terrifying black tattoos flowed over her body, it was a thrilling beauty.
The most rewarding part of the entire Underworld Tire four-star trial mission was the red high-heeled shoes, she had devoured almost everything in the Underworld Tire.
After coming out of the Underworld Tire scene and absorbing and organizing the Underworld Tire’s memories, how strong the red high-heeled shoes were now, Chen Ge wasn’t sure.
The beautiful faces in the fountain all became hideous and twisted after the red heels approached, and they hissed desperately at the red heels, with no trace of a “human” appearance.
Cursed tattoos on the body spread in all directions, and a black silk line cut the fountain in front of them recklessly as if it were a knife.
A statue shattered, revealing the intertwined and entwined threads of blood inside the statue.
The power of both sides was not at the same level, or perhaps the red clothes in the villa did not use their full strength.
”Finally, you’ve found it.”
An extremely unpleasant female voice resounded from the depths of the fountain, the voice of the person who spoke seemed to have been injured, and her voice was extremely harsh.
The blood in the pool of the fountain gushed towards the sides, the ground cracked, and beneath the villa floor was buried a monster dressed in red.
Her skin was ghastly white, with several blood-red flowers blooming on her body, and her entire body was immobilized beneath the fountain by countless strands of blood.
”How did you find me?” The monster tilted her head and looked at the red heels, an involuntary smile appearing at the corner of her mouth, “My proudest patient.”
”Patient?” Chen Ge instantly caught the keywords in the red-clothed monster’s words, and he rang back to the goodwill quest about the red high heels, “Could it be that the red high heels had once stayed in the cursed hospital? This red-clothed monster on the other hand is a doctor at the Cursed Hospital?”
Chen Ge didn’t know what the blood-clothed monster had ever done to the red high-heeled shoes, and it was the first time he had seen the red high-heeled shoes take such an initiative.
The black threads of the curse enveloped the entire villa, and the black mist completely suppressed the blood mist as one thread wrapped around the red-clothed monster’s body, dragging her straight out from the bottom of the fountain.
The monster in red didn’t resist, she just laughed as if she was crazy.
”You think it’s painful for patients to be treated? Actually, the most painful ones are us doctors! You guys can still run away and have a chance to escape. But what about us? Once we choose to leave, the curse planted in our bodies by the dean will be triggered, and we won’t even be able to become ghosts!”
The ear-piercing voice echoed in the hall, and the red high-heeled shoes looked at the monster in front of them with a very complicated gaze, ranging from anger and resentment to sympathy and pity.
Chen Ge walked out of the group of “people” and came to the side of the red high heels.
The monster in red that was bound by the curse also saw Chen Ge, and a blood-red flower bloomed in the socket of her left eye, at this moment, she was sizing up Chen Ge with her right eye.
”A living person standing with the top red-robed?” Previously, the red-robed monster’s attention was fully focused on the red high-heeled shoes, and she didn’t realize that there was an ordinary person mixed in with the group of red clothes in the distance.
She had initially thought that it was a mannequin toy casually created by one of the red coats, but looking at the current situation, this ordinary person seemed to be the backbone of all the red coats.
”Unreadable.”
”Were you once a doctor at the New Sea Cursed Hospital?” Chen Ge didn’t talk nonsense and opened the door to direct questioning, “Answer my question properly and maybe we can still be friends.”
”Are you threatening me?” The flowers on his body dripped out blood, how could the monster in red not expect that he would one day be threatened by an ordinary person.
”Just now, I heard you say that anyone who had been a doctor in that hospital ended up in a miserable state, unable to even be a ghost?” Chen Ge stared at the red-clothed monster’s eyes with a calm expression, not even a ripple in his pupils.
”Yes, the dean planted a curse on every doctor.” The monster in red was now being suppressed by the red high heels, and she wisely did not resist, instead choosing to answer Chen Ge’s question honestly.
”Can this curse be lifted?”
”Why are you asking this?” The monster in red was puzzled.
”I knew a doctor who escaped from your hospital, and he became a Top Red directly after his death, but the second time I saw him again, he had completely lost his mind and was holding the head of his favorite person in his arms.” Many of the questions that he didn’t understand before were slowly being answered, Chen Ge instantly thought of Dr. Gao when he heard the red-robed monster say those words.
”No one can lift the Dean’s curse, even if he becomes an existence above the red clothes he will continue to carry it, unless he takes the initiative to give up the curse, or …… “A crazy smile appeared on the red clothed monster’s face, “You can make the Dean’s soul to fall apart.”
”Is this curse that horrible?” Chen Ge had thought that when the red high heeled shoes became the Fierce God, then it would be easy to lift the curse on Dr. Gao, and he was going to use it as a bargaining chip to talk to Dr. Gao about some conditions, but now it seemed that he was being naïve.
”It’s even more horrible than you think, it can be said to be unsolvable. I escaped from the hospital during a chaos a few years ago and came to Hanyue to open this beauty salon, in order to deal with the curse in my body, I kept changing my body, but even that only slowed down the outbreak of the curse.” The red-clothed monster’s mouth split open, revealing the flower that bloomed in her throat.
”What happens when the curse breaks out? Does the soul directly fall apart?”
”The curse will deprive me of my consciousness, making me completely mad and worse than death.” The red-clothed monster’s description was very similar to how Dr. Gao behaved in Liwan Town back then.
”But you are clearly conscious now.” Chen Ge had many questions he wanted to ask, and the appearance of the monster in red was too important to him.
”Did you see the flowers that bloomed all over my body? I used them to temporarily suppress the curse, but as soon as I move a little too much, the curse will instantly swallow me up and make me lose my mind again.” The blood filaments and flowers on the red-clothed monster served the same purpose as those black chains bound on Dr. Gao’s body, they were both meant to suppress the curse.
Chen Ge asked many more questions, and the red-clothed monster was very cooperative for some unknown reason, as she told everything she knew.
The Monster in Red was called Xue Rong in her lifetime, and she was the best plastic surgeon in Xinhai. One day she suddenly received an invitation from the cursed hospital, and the other party wanted her to come and help with a surgery.
The high pay impresses Xue Rong, but when she arrives at the agreed time to enter the operating room, she realizes that her patient doesn’t seem to be human.
And this is the first meeting between Red Heels and Xue Rong.
The surgery went very unsuccessfully and Red High Heels was taken away from the hospital.
From that day on, she was haunted by the curse and eventually became one of the night doctors at the cursed hospital, and Red High Heels was one of the primary patients she was responsible for.
Red Heels herself is only red, but the hospital values her highly because her natural ability is related to the curse, which is extremely rare.
Surgery after surgery that was worse than death, failure after failure, and while both Xue Rong and Red High Heels were numb, the riot that Dr. Gao and Underworld Tire had teamed up to plan happened.
Many of the patients and doctors chose to leave, and Xue Rong decisively left the red high heels on the operating table; she stole the most beautiful face of the red high heels and chose to escape alone.
Most of these patients hid in Liwan Town with the meddling fetus, and Red Heels went to Liwan Town that night just to look for Xue Rong’s trail and find her most beautiful face.
There was cause and effect, and the broken clues connected together.
Under the watchful eyes of the ten red coats, Xue Rong took out a box from her heart, and she handed the box to the red high-heeled shoes with all reluctance.
Pale fingers opened the lid of the box, no one saw what was in the box, everyone just felt that the red high heels’ aura had become even more horrifying and terrifying.
The red high heels seemed to have found what she wanted, she lost interest in Xue Rong and went straight back to the comic book.
Seeing the red high heels leave, not only Xue Rong, but even the other red clothes around Chen Ge were relieved.
”I’ve told you everything I know, can you let me go now?” Xue Rong was paralyzed in the fountain’s pool of blood, after removing that box from her heart, she became even weaker, “I have that hospital’s curse on me, if you guys devour me, you’ll be affected by the curse yourselves, there’s more to lose than to gain, so why don’t we make a good karma?”
Chen Ge was also thinking about how to deal with Xue Rong, she herself was affected by the curse, the other severe ghosts might also be cursed after devouring her, it would be even more impossible to let her enter the haunted house as an employee, in case she suddenly lost control of herself, then the visitors would be in danger.
”From the moment I met you, you’ve been showing weakness, with absolutely no intention of revealing your true strength.” Compared to Xue Rong’s own words, Chen Ge trusted the black phone’s judgment that Xue Rong was an extremely dangerous red dress, and she definitely still had a lot of abilities hidden that she hadn’t used.
”I only need to move a little bit more to trigger the curse, the me at that time was indeed terrifying, even I was afraid of myself.” Xue Rong’s words suddenly turned, “But even if I lost control, I was definitely not a match for Top Redcoat, her strength increased too quickly, according to the speculations of the other night shift doctors, the curse, a natural ability, should clearly be the most difficult to break through.”
”Those who recognize the time are the best, I need all the information in your head about the cursed hospital, if you are willing to cooperate with me wholeheartedly, then maybe one day I can help you lift the curse.” Chen Ge didn’t use any particular tone of voice when he spoke, but it just gave people a sense of conviction.
”You can convince the dean?”
”What I want to try is another method.” Chen Ge flipped open the comic book and included Xue Rong in it.
The originally blank pages of the book were dyed red with blood, and a flower bloomed on the beautiful corpse as if Xue Rong was asleep.
”Yan Danian probably couldn’t have imagined that one day he would be able to live in his comic book with so many red clothes.” Because Xue Rong could lose control at any time, Chen Ge had to make sure that there were a few red clothes in the comic book at all times.
”Let’s go, it’s time for us to pick up our next coworker.”
In one night’s time, Chen Ge had found all nine of the Li Ghosts drawn from the carousel, and this efficiency had somehow doubled many times compared to back then.
Back in the staff lounge, the sun had already risen, Chen Ge pulled the curtains and prepared to take a nap.
At the same time in the Hospital Affiliated to the Hanjiang Medical University, Mr. Wang sat up from his hospital bed, he reached out and pulled the curtains open, letting the sunlight shine on him.
”Mr. Wang, are you feeling better?” Zuo Han’s voice came from the hospital bed next to him, where he was doing one-handed push-ups.
”My head is still a bit dizzy, I feel that many memory scenes are incoherent, I always feel as if I’ve forgotten something.” Teacher Wang took out a notebook from the drawer, which densely recorded everything that happened on the day he entered and exited the haunted house, even including where he took a sip of water, “Nope, there’s a problem with the back and forth logic, it seems like my memories are deceiving me.”
”Teacher, those things are in the past, don’t dwell on it.” Zuo Han advised in a small voice.
”You don’t understand, I seemed to see my teacher from back then in a trance that day, but that part is missing from my memory.” Teacher Wang frowned tightly, he was about to say something else when the ward door was knocked open.
Two school staff and a uniformed police officer walked in.
”Teacher Wang, the higher-ups have agreed to your application, you can go to Xinhai in the next few days.” One of the staff members spoke, “This is an elite from the city branch’s criminal investigation team, he was involved in the detection of that case twenty years ago, I had to go through a lot of trouble to get someone over from the city branch, and he will be accompanying you there.”
