Chapter 97: Uncovering the Secret of the Old Hospital 9

An old hospital in this city has been sealed off since a mysterious fire ten years ago. People speculate about what dark secrets lie behind the fire. Now, a young reporter, Lin Tao, is determined to uncover the truth behind this old hospital.

Lin Tao is a curious person who is always curious about mysterious events. After learning about the fire in the old hospital, he decided to investigate in depth.

As night fell, Lin Tao, armed with a camera, quietly arrived at the old hospital. The hospital's doors were closed, and the surroundings were silent, with only the sounds of wind and insects. Carefully, Lin Tao walked around to the back of the hospital and found a half-open window. He gently pushed it open and entered the hospital.

The hospital was dark, covered in dust and weeds. Lin Tao turned on his camera's flashlight and began searching for clues. He first went to the fire site and found a charred wall with some strange symbols on it.

Lin Tao carefully observed the symbols and discovered they appeared to be some kind of code. He decided to photograph them and consult a professional. He then went to the hospital's basement and found a locked room. A padlock hung on the door, and a key was inserted in the lock.

Lin Tao tried to pull out the key and unexpectedly succeeded in opening the door. There was a strange smell in the room. Lin Tao shone a flashlight and found a table in the room with a notebook and some documents on it.

He quickly picked up his notebook and found some clues about the fire. It turned out that the fire was not an accident, but was deliberately set to cover up a secret experiment being conducted in the hospital.

Lin Tao continued to review the documents and discovered that the experiment involved a mysterious virus. This virus was extremely contagious and pathogenic, and if leaked, it would pose a serious threat to the entire city. The fire was intended to cover up the virus's leak and prevent the spread of panic.

Just as Lin Tao was about to leave the basement, he suddenly heard footsteps. He quickly dodged to the side and saw several people in protective suits entering the room. They were holding professional equipment and seemed to be searching for something.

Lin Tao realized that he had inadvertently touched an important mechanism, so he decided to follow these people to see what they were doing.

Following these people, Lin Tao found that they had come to the backyard of the hospital, where there was an abandoned laboratory. The door of the laboratory was half open, and strange noises came from inside.

Lin Tao approached the lab cautiously and discovered an elderly man trapped inside. He was frail and struggling on the bed. Seeing this, Lin Tao's heart leaped into his throat.

He decided to rescue the old man, so he quietly approached the door of the laboratory, ready to rush in when those people were not paying attention. However, just as he was about to act, he suddenly smelled a strong smell and couldn't help coughing.

This scene was discovered by those people, and they quickly rushed towards Lin Tao. Lin Tao struggled desperately, but was still subdued by them.

At that moment, the police suddenly rushed into the laboratory and subdued the men. It turned out that Lin Tao had reported his findings to the police before entering the hospital. After investigation, the police finally found the location of the laboratory.

In the end, the police successfully rescued the trapped elderly man and controlled the spread of the virus. Lin Tao was also praised by the society for his bravery and wisdom.

The secrets of the old hospital were finally revealed, and the virus leak was contained. Lin Tao also gained valuable experience from this incident. He understands that as a journalist, he shoulders the responsibility of uncovering the truth and upholding justice. In the days ahead, he will continue to strive to uncover more facts and contribute to social fairness and justice.
