Chapter 15
Qingyun Sanatorium is located on a small island in the Pacific Ocean. Access is by private plane and cruise ship. Chen Xuan came here with a mission this time and was not in a hurry to leave. He was arranged to stay in a guest villa for a few days.
That night, a blurry black shadow appeared again in the surveillance camera of Yard No. 3.
The administrator hesitated for a second, then decisively picked up the phone to call the dean.
"Where did she go again?"
On the phone, the dean's voice didn't sound surprised, and the administrator even heard a hint of calmness in his voice that said, "As expected."
He speculated based on the figure's route in the surveillance video, "Hmm... If she didn't get lost this time, she should be heading towards you."
In the bedroom, Xie Lingxu put down his phone, put on his coat, and buttoned it up to the top button meticulously.
The moonlight outside the window was bright, and the soft light shone on his face, which made his cold brows soften a little. But when he looked into his eyes, the cold pool was still there, and he realized that it was just an illusion.
Outside the yard, a head emerged stealthily from the bamboo forest, observing the surroundings with extreme caution.
It would be fine if it was dealing with others, but when dealing with Xie Lingxu, Su Yin didn't dare to be careless at all. That bastard was very sensitive, and a small mistake could lead to failure.
She waited for a full quarter of an hour under the cover of the bamboo forest, and only came out after making sure that there was no movement in the yard, walking on tiptoe like a thief.
The dean's office was pitch black with no lights on. I guess that bastard had already gone to bed.
The outer wall had changed its style. He moved very quickly. Without making a sound, the door and wall that had been stained by the bald man's saliva had been completely replaced.
This is a low wall, easier to climb than the one in Courtyard No. 2. Su Yin chose a blind spot where no one could see from inside and climbed over the wall swiftly.
This was her first time entering the yard. Compared with the layout of Courtyard No. 2, the environment here was quieter and more classical. There was even a lake dug inside, and the water was diverted to create a stream that spanned the entire yard.
Su Yin walked carefully across the wooden bridge and arrived in front of the gate. Her heart started beating involuntarily.
The grudge that spanned three years and two lifetimes may be completely resolved today and at this moment.
She took a deep breath and slowly opened the door.
The room was dark, with only a little moonlight illuminating the path in front of the window. Fortunately, the layout of the interior of the house was exactly the same as that of the other courtyards, so it was not difficult to find the way.
Su Yin tiptoed into the bedroom. Under the moonlight, there was a bulge on the flat bed, covered under the quilt.
Her heart beat faster and faster.
Before coming, she wanted to look for knives and swords or something, but she didn't know that the nursing home guarded these things more closely than anything else. There were no sharp weapons anywhere else except in the kitchen, and the kitchen door was made of unknown material and had no external lock. She had to scan her face to get in.
There was no other way, Su Yin could only come empty-handed.
However, she had plenty of strength and means, and she could kill Xie Lingxu, who was also a mortal, even without using weapons.
Su Yin moved closer to the bed, and the closer she got, the more the corners of her lips curled up.
When she reached the edge of the bed, she jumped up, turned over and sat on the quilt, covering the bottom of the head tightly, trying to suffocate the person underneath.
Die, you bastard!
The room was filled with the scent of Xie Lingxu. Su Yin's hands trembled slightly with excitement. She opened her mouth and inhaled unconsciously, as if she was enveloped by that man.
She adjusted her posture and realized belatedly that the thing underneath felt wrong.
Too soft.
Is that dog so soft?
Su Yin's expression changed. She lifted the quilt and saw that the thing underneath was clearly a pillow!
Her efforts were in vain, and she cursed, "Damn, scheming man!"
He doesn't sleep at night and puts a pillow under the quilt. Is he sick?!
"Is the patient talking about me?"
A cold male voice came from the door. Su Yin turned around and saw the person she wanted to assassinate was leaning leisurely against the door.
She subconsciously asked: "Why don't you sleep so late?"
"I'm dealing with matters in the hospital."
"It's the patient who's not sleeping so late... and runs to my bed?"
The environment was too dark, and there seemed to be something indescribable in Xie Lingxu's eyes, and the words he spoke became a little sticky in the night.
On his bed...the bed he usually sleeps on!
These words echoed in Su Yin's mind. She jumped back to the ground with another leap, and rubbed her hands hard on her clothes after touching the quilt.
It was a pity that in her current position, she was lying on the quilt with her whole body stained with his scent. Moreover, she was in his territory now, so she couldn't get rid of the smell no matter what she did.
She felt uncomfortable all over, but she had to spare some energy to deal with him: "I can't sleepwalk?"
Xie Lingxu watched her stir and move, as if she wanted to take a shower and change clothes on the spot, and continued slowly, "Sleepwalking into my bed?"
He can't avoid the bed, right?
Su Yin was so angry that her teeth itched, and she simply threw the can and said, "What's wrong with that? It's just going to bed!"
The sound was quite loud. The bedroom window was open, and her yell startled the fish in the lake outside and they jumped out of the water.
The words were really harsh to his ears. Xie Lingxu stood up straighter and said in a cold voice, "Is the patient ill?"
After gradually coming into contact with people from other hospitals, Su Yin had a rough idea of what the patients in this sanatorium had - insanity.
The bastard was calling her crazy.
"It is an illness. It will be cured when you die one day."
Isn't it true that she likes to act like a good dean? She retorted, "Since the dean is so concerned about my condition and thinking about me, can you please just die?"
Xie Lingxu was not annoyed, but simply said: "It seems that the patient will have to stay in the sanatorium for a long time in the future."
Maybe it's because she has dealt with him more often in the past two days, Su Yin is almost learning his tricks.
She replied in a sarcastic tone, "Then I'll have to trouble the dean to take care of you."
Outside the window, the night is dark.
Xie Lingxu didn't respond, but said calmly, "It's late at night, the patient should go back to rest."
?
Just let it go like that?
Su Yin couldn't help but look at the bastard a few more times. There was no ripple on her face, and she really wasn't angry.
She didn't understand, she was shocked.
Is this still the same vengeful bastard?
The person beside the bed was stunned for a long time. Xie Lingxu waited for a while and began to get impatient to send him away: "Why, the patient still wants to sleep here with me?"
After hearing this, Su Yin got goose bumps all over her body, and all the complicated thoughts were suppressed.
She had an expression that showed she was doubting her life, and she walked very quickly, not wanting to stay even a second longer.
Xie Lingxu glanced at the messy bed and followed quietly.
I should find someone to change the bed tomorrow.
His footsteps were very light, and his hiding ability was even better than Su Yin's. Because he had seen the surveillance screen, he could even accurately avoid the eyes and ears of the surveillance.
The bamboo branches and leaves on the road were messy and showed signs of being trampled. Xie Lingxu frowned and added another thing to the new list.
Su Yin was preoccupied and didn't notice the tail behind him for a moment.
It was dark at night, and the streetlights had dimmed to their lowest point, barely illuminating a small area. She stood at the fork in the road, looking left and then right.
It was the same everywhere, pitch black, and I couldn't see the way out at all.
What's more, Suyin is a person with poor direction.
After hesitating for a minute, she took the road on the left with firm steps.
Xie Lingxu frowned.
What was she doing in Courtyard No. 2?
After walking for a while, Su Yin fell silent when he saw the powerful flashlights that covered every angle outside the opposite courtyard and the luxurious armed bodyguards.
I took the wrong turn again.
She blinked, turned back, and took another path.
Xie Lingxu: ...
She was heading towards the medical building, which included the villas where doctors and guests lived.
It was early morning, and several buildings stood silently in the darkness, like giant beasts from the abyss, overlooking several courtyards not far away.
Before this, Su Yin had only been to this place once, when she had just woken up from her reincarnation. Not long after she came back to life, she was given a sedative and taken away. She never came here again.
It's not that we don't want to, they just won't let us.
Su Yin didn't stay at the door for too long. She found an open window and slid in easily.
The first time is new, the second time is familiar, and the third time I can do it almost with my eyes closed.
Outside the window, Xie Lingxu stared at the half-person-high windowsill for a long time.
I can't do things like climbing through windows.
He changed the direction of his toes and walked straight towards the monitoring room.
Why does the dean need to climb through the window?
In the monitoring room, the administrator was worried about the figure on the screen.
There are just as many surveillance cameras in the medical building as outside. Except for a few necessary rooms, it is clear at a glance who is doing what inside.
The young lady's actions were completely exposed under his nose.
After hesitating for a few seconds, the administrator was about to find his cell phone to call the dean, but when he turned around, he found a living person standing behind him and was suddenly startled.
Xie Lingxu appeared suddenly, without any sound of footsteps. When the administrator noticed him, he was already standing only one meter away from him.
He took two breaths and asked, "Dean, why are you here?"
I don’t seem to see the dean in the surveillance video?
Xie Lingxu glanced at the sneaky figure in the surveillance video, "Nothing, go and rest, I'm here."
The administrator followed his gaze and sighed softly, "It's because of Miss Su."
In fact, the last time the administrator was wondering why the dean suddenly took charge of the patients in Ward No. 3, he pondered for a long time and finally dug out something from the depths of his memory.
He opened the dusty drawer under his desk, pulled out a letter, and handed it to Xie Lingxu. "Dean, you didn't take this letter away after reading it. Is that because of this?"
The administrator vaguely remembered that it seemed that the day after the letter was sent, the dean brought Miss Su back from outside and placed her in Courtyard No. 3.
Although he did not express anything to the outside world, the dean did come here often during that period to check the surveillance cameras near Courtyard No. 3, probably because he was concerned about Miss Su.
Xie Ling preface:.
No wonder people here always think there is something going on between him and Su Yin.
It turns out that the original owners of the two bodies really had something going on.
