Zhao Xi said tremblingly, "A woman's crying... so miserable, so terrifying, as if it were right in front of me!"
I listened attentively for a long time, then shook my head and said, "No, I didn't hear anything. Maybe you just gave birth and are too tired. Rest well and don't think too much."
Zhao Xi took two deep breaths, nodded, and lay down again.
The next day, another person died at the maternity hospital. Although their body wasn't bloody, their death was still tragic. An examination revealed they died of mental disorder caused by excessive shock. The exact cause of the death is still under investigation.
That night, it was early morning again. I had just finished tossing little Sifei and put her in Zhao Xi's bed, letting her sleep with Zhao Xi. At this time, Zhao Xi, who had already fallen asleep due to fatigue, suddenly screamed and sat up. She was sweating all over, her pupils were wide open, and she was gasping for breath. She looked so frightened that I almost scared me to death!
I hurriedly asked her what happened, and Zhao Xi told me the same thing again, saying that she heard a woman crying, very miserable and terrifying...
But I didn’t hear anything at all!
Are you kidding? With my current abilities, how could I not hear something that even ordinary people can? This is too weird.
I coaxed her to sleep, but Zhao Xi hugged me tightly out of fear. I had no choice but to hug her and comfort her. Slowly, she fell asleep again.
Early in the morning, the police returned to the maternity hospital and took away another body. I was stunned. Why had people been dying in this hospital for days? I asked several doctors with inside knowledge, and they said the victims had all died of mental disorders caused by excessive shock. A pregnant woman told me that the woman who had just died said something before she died: she heard a woman crying at night. It was very miserable and terrifying. She died the next day.
I was stunned for a moment, what the hell!
I hurried back to the delivery room. Fortunately, Zhao Xi was still safe and sound, and I breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Xi asked me what happened outside. I shook my head and said nothing, and said, "How are you feeling now? If you are almost well, let's go home quickly."
Zhao Xi nodded: "I think so too."
I smiled and said, "Then I'll go and get you discharged. Wait for me."
"good!"
I left the delivery room and went to see the obstetrician. After explaining the situation, the doctor allowed Zhao Xi to be discharged. I breathed a sigh of relief and hurried back to the delivery room. I was about to tell Zhao Xi the news, but the room was empty. Where was Zhao Xi?
I was just about to go out when I heard Xiao Sifei's voice from under the quilt: "Oh! I'm almost suffocating!"
I ran back and lifted the quilt. Little Sifei breathed a sigh of relief as if she had been reborn. Then she said to me anxiously, "What are you still standing there for? My mother has already left the delivery room!"
Leaving the delivery room? I asked her where Zhao Xi went.
Xiao Sifei said: "I don't know where she went. I only know that she said a few strange words, like "You bad woman, why did you steal my child?" and "Okay, upstairs, right? Then I'll go upstairs and have a good talk with you." Then she left."
Upstairs? I hesitated for a moment, then immediately picked up little Sifei and ran to the top floor of the hospital.
When I rushed to the rooftop of the hospital, a woman jumped from the rooftop. From the back, who else could it be but Zhao Xi?
I was terrified. How could Zhao Xi commit suicide? Impossible! I yelled and rushed over, but it was too late. Zhao Xi had already jumped from the rooftop. When I rushed to the edge of the rooftop, a bloody body was lying on the ground in front of the hospital.
Her face was still facing upwards, smiling at me from the top floor. That bloody, creepy face was so unrecognizable that I couldn't tell who it was. Furthermore, the pregnant woman was wearing exactly the same clothes, so I even wondered if the person who jumped was actually Zhao Xi.
Little Sifei shook her head and said, "She is not my mother!"
At this moment, my backpack shook slightly, and Su Xiaoniu's voice came out: "Behind you."
I turned around and saw Zhao Xi slashing at me with a large kitchen knife. I was so frightened that I quickly backed away. Zhao Xi chased me closely, saying, "Why are you hiding?"
I subconsciously replied, "If I don't hide, do you want to kill me?"
Zhao Xi continued, "I'm going to kill you. You stole my child. Give it back to me!"
I was puzzled: "This child is originally yours, I didn't steal it... Zhao Xi, what's wrong with you?"
