Chapter 9 Peace Medical School 7
This class felt much longer than yesterday's, and for a moment the two of them even forgot about being nervous.
After the bell rang, the teacher left immediately, but none of the students in the class left. They all stared at their phones nervously. Only then did they realize that it was time for the teacher to select students again.
After every morning class, the counselor will notify the group which two students will prepare for the afternoon anatomy class. Today the news came very timely.
Counselor: [Meng Tianyou and Zhong Xin have worked hard to prepare for the class today.]
When Meng Qing saw the name in the group, she almost fell to the ground.
Then she stood up by holding the back of the chair, and hurried to Meng Tianyou, holding his hand tightly, crying in an anxious and fearful voice, "Son, don't worry, Mom will go for you, Mom will go for you..."
Meng Tianyou frowned tightly and said nothing.
Meng Qing seemed to be comforting herself and Meng Tianyou, "It's okay, it's okay. Wasn't it okay when Song Mingliang went there yesterday?"
"Should we tell her?" Lin Xiang asked Hua Haoming during lunch.
Meng Qing still thought that Song Mingliang was fine, but she didn't know that the two people who went to prepare for teaching yesterday were abnormal. At this time, Song Mingliang's eyes hidden behind his thick bangs were still peeking around.
I don’t know if it’s because of the dark and crazy light surging inside, but those eyes seemed different from before, as if there was a ghost behind the eyes, spying on its prey.
It's only been one day.
Hua Haoming shook his head, "She's about to go in. Telling her now will only make her more panicked and more likely to get into trouble."
Just like yesterday, they did not return to the dormitory at noon, but followed Meng Qing to the anatomy laboratory building.
On the way, Hua Haoming reminded Meng Qing: "Make sure to wear gloves and masks, don't take them off during the whole process, and don't look around. Get ready quickly and come out."
When the three of them were discussing in the morning, Lin Xiang proposed two possibilities: pollution source and ghost possession. Hua Haoming thought that pollution source was unlikely, and ghost possession was difficult to prevent, but considering Dai Liangyuan's words of going crazy, it was possible that he really saw a ghost, or some kind of mental pollution.
The pollution sources mentioned by Lin Xiang can only be dealt with by masks and gloves. There is currently no other way to deal with mental pollution except to ignore it.
Meng Qing nodded one by one. She knew that Hua Haoming had come out of the game and believed what he said.
After holding her son's hand and hesitating for a while, she went in with Zhong Xin.
Meng Tianyou stood there watching her thin figure getting farther and farther away, his hands in his pockets clenched into fists.
Xia Bai also kept watching. Lin Xiang saw envy in his eyes and began to feel distressed.
He knew that Xia Bai had no parents, only a grandfather to depend on, and later, in the winter of his senior year, his grandfather also passed away, and he was left without a single relative. Seeing such a good mother who stood up for her son and took risks, he must have been very envious.
Lin Xiang said: "Xia Bai, I will accompany you, so you should treat me as your own brother."
Xia Bai looked confused.
Hua Haoming: “…”
Did he enter this game just to watch the show?
Meng Qing was faster than Song Mingliang and ran out of the anatomy laboratory building in less than half an hour. Meng Tianyou, who had been silent all the time, saw her figure finally move and ran two steps to meet her.
Meng Qing hugged her son tightly, her eyes red, "It's okay, it's okay, Mommy is okay."
Song Qiang said in surprise: "Nothing happened again?"
Wen Dong and Wen Qiu were also very puzzled. So far, it was obvious that there was something wrong with the morgue, but two groups of people went in successively and nothing happened?
Are they really going in the wrong direction?
Wen Qiu looked at Meng Qing for a while, then looked at Song Mingliang and saw that he was also looking at Meng Qing with a focused and deep gaze.
She frowned subconsciously. This was not the look Song Mingliang would have.
However, Song Qiang did not go for him yesterday, but Meng Qing went for his son today. He couldn't help but feel envious. Is it normal to have such an expression?
Xia Bai and the other two did not relax at all because of Meng Qing's words. Song Mingliang said the same thing yesterday.
Hua Haoming asked her some more details, and what she said was similar to what Song Mingliang said. Hua Haoming also told her not to look around, as she didn't explain it as clearly as Song Mingliang did.
Lin Xiang was anxiously thinking, "What on earth is in there? I want to go in and take a look."
Xia Bai immediately looked at him with light in his eyes.
Lin Xiang smiled embarrassedly, "Don't worship me, I was just saying it casually."
“…”
The anatomy class in the afternoon went smoothly, and it was still Xia Bai's stage. Xia Bai was not only the most popular person in the clinical medicine class 2, but also Professor Liu's favorite student. Looking at Professor Liu's expression, he wished that Xia Bai would be his last disciple.
The anatomy class was over and today's classes were over. As they had discussed last night, they should go to the morgue to take a look.
Hua Haoming tried to stop them. The morgue was too weird. The two people who had been there last night were not normal now. Before they figured out what was going on, they couldn't all go in directly. Otherwise, they might all be wiped out.
"Let's go to the library first to look for clues. We don't know anything about this medical school or its background. Libraries usually have newspapers and magazines that can help us understand these things. Maybe we will find something unexpected."
The players who resisted that place from the bottom of their hearts naturally agreed, only Xia Bai felt a little regretful.
The library of this medical school is a four-story circular building. One can tell that it was well designed back then, but now it is in ruins, with the exterior facade peeling and mottled, standing lifelessly in the dark.
They acted separately, some looked for magazines, some looked for newspapers, and some visited campus forums, starting from last year when the first case of campus legend appeared.
The newspapers in the library are arranged in order by date, so it is not difficult to find them.
Xia Baizhen found the incident that year, the first student who committed suicide after making teaching preparations.
The official report was suicide. A newspaper reported it at the time, but the description was very vague, and the basis for the report was that medical students were under great pressure.
Xia Bai took the newspaper to find Lin Xiang who was looking up information on the computer. Based on this incident, the two found more content on the campus network.
In one of the photos, the student may have actually died of suicide by jumping into the school’s artificial lake. The photo showed him being fished out of the lake.
The photo was taken at a relatively far distance, so they could only see that the man was covered in a layer of green algae from the lake bottom. It was so tight that from a distance it looked like it was growing out of the body.
The green algae he saw in the artificial lake these two days appeared in Xia Bai's mind again, wandering quietly at the bottom of the lake.
Lin Xiang: "At the time, the internet said he was possessed by a ghost in the morgue, and he went crazy and jumped into the lake to commit suicide. It's a pity that we can't see more details."
This is all we can find about this incident. No newspaper reported the subsequent deaths, which may have been suppressed by the school.
Xia Bai continued to read the newspapers from that time period over and over again, not only those after that time period, but also those before that time period, not only those related to student suicides, but also those related to other matters of interest.
In the newspaper a week before the student committed suicide, Xia Bai saw a report in a small newspaper that he was quite interested in, which was about abnormal hobbies.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Lin Xiang next to him suddenly sighed: "Medical school is like this too, there are posts like this."
Xia Bai raised his head, "What post?"
Lin Xiang said: "What's the secret of the most beautiful counselor? It doesn't sound like a serious post."
Xia Bai was confused and walked over, "What's wrong with that?"
Lin Xiang saw Xia Bai's dazzlingly beautiful face and extremely clear eyes, touched his nose, and quickly closed the gossip post that he hadn't read yet, "Nothing, just... they also commented on the instructor's appearance in private."
"The lights are about to be turned off. We should leave." Hua Haoming stood at the door and knocked.
The two of them looked at each other and realized it was already half past eleven at night. Time always passed quickly when reading newspapers and gossip in the safe library.
Before meeting up with other players, Hua Haoming said, "Let's not sleep tonight. Let's observe Song Mingliang together and see what's going on with him."
Xia Bai shook his head. "The dormitory manager said that we can't be outside the dormitory after lights out. You guys better not come to watch. I'll just lie on the bed and watch. I'll send you a message if anything happens."
Hua Haoming thought about it. It was still unclear whether it was a hard rule that people could not go out after lights out. It was indeed a bit risky. "Okay, let us know if anything happens."
Lin Xiang then said, "I won't sleep anymore. I'll stay with you. Don't be afraid."
The other players were already waiting for them at the door, and on the way back, they exchanged the information they had found with each other.
The medical school library must have some medical journals, which really helped Meng Tianyou and Wen Qiu find some relevant information.
Meng Tianyou said: "A journal reported on the use of human specimens by major medical schools. Some school personnel privately resold corpses and human organs. Our Peace Medical College was on the list, but it was not a big deal. It was just that the source and use records of corpses were not standardized."
Lin Xiang was shocked. "Is it really like what Brother Hua said, illegal buying and selling of corpses?"
Hua Haoming was curious, "Did they say what they would do with it after selling it?"
"What else can be done?" Song Qiang actively participated in the discussion. "I can think of some things right away, such as the legendary ghost marriage. Some people with special hobbies will also buy it. Let me tell you, there are many feudal and ignorant people, and there are many perverted people."
Xia Bai seemed to have thought of something and suddenly raised his head.
"That's not right." Wen Dong said, "If it was reselling, then the buyer would have been in trouble. How come all the deaths were in school?"
"Didn't they say that the source of the bodies in this school is unclear?" Lin Xiang was suddenly shocked. "Oh my god, it can't be true what I said, that someone in the school killed students or teachers and made them into cadavers, and these victims became ghosts and stayed in the morgue to avenge the students who used their bodies?"
Surprisingly, it makes sense.
We discussed along the way and soon arrived at the dormitory.
At this time, the lights in the dormitory were about to be turned off, and the few people went back to the dormitory without saying much.
Before leaving, Hua Haoming patted Xia Bai on the shoulder and signaled him to observe Song Mingliang's affairs at night.
Xia Bai nodded, went back to the dormitory and lay on the bed, holding the family tree and trying hard to resist sleepiness.
The weather started to get cooler at night, and the humidity grew heavier, so damp that it felt like being in a bathhouse.
Wen Qiu didn't know whether he was woken up by the sound of water or by the uncomfortable humidity.
She turned over and heard the sound of water falling on the floor in the bathroom.
In the dark night, she subconsciously turned her head to look at the bed opposite. The light was dim, but she could see clearly that there was no one there.
There are only her and Meng Qing living in this dormitory. Meng Qing is not in bed at this time, and there is the sound of water in the bathroom. Naturally, Meng Qing is taking a shower in the bathroom.
But didn’t Meng Qing take a shower before going to bed?
Wen Qiu turned on his cell phone, 02:09.
It was past two in the morning, and Meng Qing was taking a shower in the bathroom?
The sound of flowing water continued. In the dormitory late at night, only the sound of water splashing could be heard, and there was an odd and contradictory silence.
Wen Qiu tensed up little by little, and sat up quickly and quietly.
She repeatedly comforted herself in her heart that Meng Qing loved cleanliness, and when they returned to the dormitory at night, the lights were about to be turned off, so they just washed up hastily. It was normal for someone who loved cleanliness so much to still feel uncomfortable, so she went to take a good shower.
But she couldn't comfort herself.
Meng Qing just came out of the morgue this afternoon.
She thought again of the look in Song Mingliang's eyes that Meng Qing saw when she came out, and a chill arose from it, spreading along her sticky skin.
Wen Qiu stroked his arm, got out of bed quietly, without wearing shoes, and slowly approached the bathroom.
It was past two o'clock in the morning, the darkest time of the night. There was no light in the school and it was almost impossible to see in the dormitory. She groped forward with her hands and feet.
I touched the sticky wet clothes on the chair, and my feet touched the chair legs and stepped on the water.
In fact, her whole body was resisting going near the bathroom. The bathroom has always been a place full of dirt and dampness, especially the one in the dormitory where the bathroom and toilet are combined, which is most likely to have dirt.
But she had to go and see what Meng Qing was doing in there and what happened to her.
The bathroom door was not closed tightly, and there was enough gap for her to see inside.
Meng Qiu squatted down carefully, putting his eyes close to the crack in the door.
A damp surface with a faint fishy smell came over.
It was too dark and steamy. The windowless bathroom was pitch black and I could only see the back of a person squatting there.
After hesitating for a long time, Wen Qiu carefully turned on the mobile phone hidden behind her. At that moment, she froze in place.
I don’t know if the bathroom drain was blocked or the water had been running for too long, but it overflowed outside the bathroom door.
Wen Qiu stepped on it a little, and the light from his cell phone illuminated a blood-red area.
The author has something to say:
Lin Xiang: I have some self-help methods for friendship.
