81 Skin 22 || Life is a grand decay
"Any child injected with this drug at birth has already stepped halfway into the grave," Tian Yiyi sorted out her chaotic thoughts. "The hospital sees hundreds of newborns every day, so it's easy for them to get mixed up. To do this without anyone noticing, you need someone who can see the red marks."
"Why not those doctors just now?" Ye Jing'an asked.
"The doctors can't," Lin Haichen denied directly. "They have to stay in the operating room to see other newborns, so they don't have time to complete the follow-up work. To keep the truth secret, the hospital will definitely not let all the staff know. The more people know, the greater the risk of it leaking out."
"Even if everyone is willing to do this, Jing'an, people's hearts are unpredictable. They always praise the deliciousness of meat when eating it, but complain about the dirtiness when washing dishes. When the benefits are unevenly distributed, there's no telling what methods those people will resort to. Never underestimate the bottom line of human nature, it's a bottomless pit."
Everyone has a different face, but in reality everyone has a different face.
Tian Yiyi took over the conversation, "So, in order to facilitate management, the director only needs a suitable person. That person must be a hospital staff member, of low status, and someone who appears on every floor every day will not arouse suspicion."
Ye Jing'an understood. "The person who carries the bodies is the most suitable candidate. He doesn't need to understand the reason. He just needs to point out which children have marks on their faces. They will die soon anyway."
The people who move the bodies are not doctors, so even if they see red marks, they will only think it is some incurable infectious disease.
"He's pretty miserable. He didn't know anything and instead became an accomplice of this group of people," said Xu Yaoyu.
The sound of several people talking woke up the child in Ye Jingan's arms. He was really small, only half the length of Ye Jingan's arm. His little eyes tried hard to open and see this new world. He didn't cry or make a fuss, but smiled at him.
Ye Jingan's heart melted instantly, and he was in a dilemma, "Should we send the child back now?"
He knew that sending him back would only lead to death, even though he was just an NPC, but at that moment he had only lived for a few hours in this world.
Several people hesitated.
At this moment, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door. After they were stunned, the four of them started to beat their hearts.
"Is the person outside looking for this child? Have they found him?" Ye Jing'an asked quickly in a low voice.
Tian Yiyi placed her middle finger between her lips, walked lightly, and slowly moved towards the door.
Ye Jing'an immediately shut up, gently patted the child's back, and prayed silently in his heart: Little ancestor, please don't cry at this time!
The child seemed to know what he was thinking and blinked at Ye Jingan.
Several people held their breath and listened attentively to the noise outside. After about five or six minutes, the footsteps finally stopped in front of the door.
There were some more people standing at the door.
Ye Jing'an frowned quietly, and Lin Haichen waved to Tian Yiyi, signaling her to stay away from the door.
It was unknown how many people were outside the door, but it was definitely more than them. The people outside the door stopped moving when they reached the door, and the four people in the room waited anxiously for them to leave.
But time passed minute by minute, and it was almost six o'clock, but there was still no sound of leaving outside the door.
Do they have to wait until dawn to leave the room?
This thought flashed through Ye Jing'an's mind. He was so anxious that he punched his head. His face looked extremely ugly and he kept looking at the clock on the wall. The two bodies for tonight had not been sent down yet!
"I can't wait any longer, I have to go out." Ye Jing'an looked up and saw that the sky was beginning to brighten. If the body was not sent to the morgue as required after dawn, no one knew what would happen.
Tian Yiyi's expression turned ugly, and she turned her gaze to stare at the child in his hand. "Give me the child, I'll give it to them, and you take the opportunity to leave."
Ye Jing'an's grip tightened, and he immediately refused, "You know, if I hand him over, I'll die."
"Is your life more important, your life or his? He's just a virtual life in the game, and you..." Tian Yiyi said calmly, "You only have one life. If you die, there's no coming back. You'll have nothing left."
Xu Yaoyu gently pulled Tian Yiyi's sleeve, signaling her not to get excited.
Tian Yiyi took a deep breath and took Xu Yaoyu's hand in hers. "What I said is the truth. This is the best way. We don't want anything to happen to you."
Ye Jing'an held the child in one trembling hand. The time on the wall was a few minutes before six.
After six o'clock, everything will change, and it will be useless if something really happens.
Lin Haichen looked up at the time and said in a deep voice, "Give me the child. I promise to do my best to keep him. I'll open the door to attract attention. You quickly go to the basement and place the body." Then he instructed Tian Yiyi and Xu Yaoyu, "We'll delay for a few minutes. The nurses will disappear after six o'clock. During these few minutes, your first priority is to ensure your own safety, and secondly, the child."
Tian Yiyi and Xu Yaoyu nodded without hesitation.
Ye Jing'an also decided to follow Lin Haichen's arrangements. His physical strength was not as good as Jingning and Lin Haichen, nor was his intelligence as good. Now that Jingning was not there, Lin Haichen chose a compromise method for the sake of the overall situation, and had to let the two girls take the risk. How could Ye Jing'an not be moved? He was indeed a little stubborn just now.
"Don't think too much." Lin Haichen saw the burden on him, "I also want to stay with this child to see if there will be any changes after six o'clock."
"Are you comforting me?" Ye Jing'an choked with sobs.
"Tell me the truth." Lin Haichen said, "Give me the child."
The child's eyes were glued to Ye Jing'an until Ye Jing'an handed him to Lin Haichen. Without warning, the child burst into tears. The noise was quite loud, and it seemed to be several volumes higher in the silent room.
Before Ye Jing'an had time to figure it out, suddenly, outside the door, "dong dong dong - sila sila -" sounds cut through the last darkness.
Lin Haichen held the child in one hand and opened the door with the other. There were doctors standing outside the door, at least six or seven of them. He pushed Ye Jingan to the other side of the corridor, "Let's go!", and ran in the opposite direction.
Ye Jing'an's feet were quicker than his brain. He ran into the elevator and saw two bodies inside. He quickly pressed the button for the basement floor. The elevator ran very quickly and when it reached the basement floor, there were only two minutes left.
He didn't have time to catch his breath or even feel fear. It was definitely too late to run twice. Ye Jing'an pulled a cart with one hand, gritted his teeth and ran to the morgue at the fastest speed in his life.
Six o'clock sharp.
The only sound in the morgue was his heavy breathing, and the two bodies were placed neatly in the freezer.
He glanced at the light above his head, opened the door and walked to the first floor.
