Dongzhou City, District C, inside the hospital.

"How are they now? Is the problem serious?" Jiang Ruan stared at the couple on the hospital bed behind the glass door, her heart clenching with anxiety.

"Don't worry, our hospital has already conducted a joint review as soon as possible. Based on the current treatment results, as long as you can get through tonight, there will be no problem."

The doctor, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looking at the medical record with a serious expression, spoke firmly.

"That's good, that puts my mind at ease." Jiang Ruan breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and sat on the bench, leaning back as she thought about everything that had just happened.

On their way here, she and Zhang Yang avoided roads where zombies might appear as much as possible. Although the journey was somewhat bumpy, they eventually arrived safely.

As soon as she parked the car, a doctor from the hospital rushed out, grabbed Jiang Ruan, and told her about what had happened on the phone.

It turns out that while Li Ming's parents were in the hospital, their IV drips were pulled by a mentally ill person who appeared out of nowhere.

Due to a lack of nutrition and medication, their already severely injured bodies couldn't hold on any longer, and their electrocardiograms turned into flat lines.

Fortunately, the doctor arrived in time and took immediate measures to alleviate the symptoms.

However, the electrocardiogram did not look promising.

For safety reasons, and because the surgery required family members to sign consent forms and make payments, they contacted Jiang Ruan.

I hope she can come over.

"A mentally ill person!" Jiang Ruan rubbed her head, feeling a headache coming on as she thought about the person she had just subdued.

Because she knew that person, and coincidentally, he was her father's former good friend, and also the person she was involved in when she sold her property, Wang Zhongyi.

How did he become mentally ill? Why does he look at me with such hatred? Why did he hurt Li Ming's parents?

A string of questions swirled in Jiang Ruan's mind, causing her to suddenly feel a surge of irritation.

"Jiang Ruan, what's wrong? Is it something serious? You can tell me." Zhang Yang saw a hint of suspicion and inquiry in Jiang Ruan's eyes when she looked at that person, and he knew that this person must know her.

But he really didn't know the specifics.

“No, Zhang Yang, have you ever met a mentally ill person before?” Jiang Ruan felt that the person could suddenly become mentally unstable for no reason, and she needed to investigate.

The most direct way to do this is to let Zhang Yang get in touch with him. As soon as she does, she will know what's going on with him.

But he's already locked up, and since he's not a family member at the mental hospital, he can't visit. This is a bit of a tricky situation.

"I've only ever seen mental illness on TV, but most of them are faking it for some purpose; they're not really mentally ill."

I remember that the more realistic it is, the more fake it is, because a real mental patient looks just like a normal person.

Zhang Yang's words seemed to answer Jiang Ruan's question, giving her a suitable opportunity to think.

"Fake? If that's the case, then we definitely need to go and see for ourselves."

Jiang Ruan stood up, looked at the two people behind the glass door, and walked over after the doctor gave her permission to visit.

She gently patted her aunt's wrist to express her concern, but in reality, she was using her healing abilities to examine their bodies.

After confirming that everything was alright, I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Doctor, please take another look at them. They just had surgery, so we can't take them away right away. We'll come back to pick them up in a few days."

Jiang Ruan smiled at the doctor, paused, and continued, "I have already paid the surgery fees and subsequent hospitalization fees. If you need anything else or if there are any issues, just contact me. I'll be there whenever you need me."

"Don't worry, Miss Jiang. You've always known our hospital's medical facilities and service quality. Just leave it to us." The doctor shook her hand.

At the same time, he glanced at Zhang Yang next to Jiang Ruan, his eyes showing that he was still not satisfied.

"Zhang Yang, you go out first. I need to talk to the doctor for a few more minutes. We'll leave together in a bit."

Jiang Ruan understood and quickly told Zhang Yang to leave, wanting to hear what the doctor had to say.

"Doctor, what happened? Tell me?" Jiang Ruan asked, somewhat confused.

"Well, I don't know if it's convenient to say this, or if it might be a bit presumptuous, but..." The doctor hesitated a bit, not as fluently as before.

"It's nothing. Now that things have come to this, just tell me what's wrong, I'm open to it." Jiang Ruan was incredibly curious; she really had no idea what the doctor was going to say.

“A few days ago, Du Ning came with a woman. That woman is about to give birth, and you…” The doctor’s voice trailed off as he spoke, realizing he might have been a bit presumptuous.

"Doctor, we are already divorced, so I don't care what he does. However, he has a child now, and as his ex-wife, I feel it's necessary for me to go and congratulate him."

"So, could you please tell me the address?"

"I searched high and low without finding it, but then it came to me effortlessly." Jiang Ruan had almost forgotten about this matter because she was so busy these past few days.

This is just perfect; retribution may be delayed, but it will come eventually.

"Oh dear, I didn't know. I'm so sorry, I've been so presumptuous." The doctor waved his hand, bowing and shaking his head to express his apology.

Then, "I never expected you to have such a broad perspective, young lady. You treated your ex-husband's actions with such gentlemanly heart. I really admire you."

The doctor was about to say something more when Jiang Ruan interrupted him. "Doctor, just tell me his address, don't worry, I don't care about that."

Seeing that Jiang Ruan had already said that, the doctor stopped chatting about other things and simply gave her his address in full.

Stepping out of the hospital and breathing in the 3 a.m. air, one feels a great sense of coolness.

The weather, which was gradually warming up due to the unusual weather, suddenly turned cool today. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

"Do you want to go back now? If you walk, it will take about an hour to get back."

Jiang Ruan shook her head, a slight smile playing on her lips. She glanced at the tall building beside her, narrowing her eyes. Pointing with her finger, she said, "Go here!"

"Okay, ah!" Zhang Yang thought it meant going back, but when he realized what it meant, he was stunned when he looked at the building.

Isn't this the most dangerous zombie building? How did I end up here?

The places where zombies first appear are often the most gloomy, hence the name "zombie buildings." It's been several days now, and everyone knows that nighttime is dangerous; usually, there's no one around at that time.

However, this building, the "zombie building" Zhang Yang mentioned, was brightly lit, making it stand out from the other buildings.

"Are you scared?" Jiang Ruan asked with a smile, patting Zhang Yang on the shoulder before going inside.

"Afraid? I'm not afraid at all. It's just a zombie building. Even those mentally ill people aren't afraid, so why should I be? Let's go, I'll go first."

Zhang Yang raised his chin and walked forward with great boldness.

The mental hospital Jiang Ruan was looking for, as well as Du Ning's residence, are both located here.

So here.

She absolutely has to go!
