The underground building of Xinhai Central Hospital is extremely complex, with a large internal space and distorted handwriting can be seen everywhere.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of disinfectant, and the ground was littered with stained hospital gowns and all kinds of garbage. Occasionally, you could see a no-entry sign at the intersection of the passages, but the wooden signs had rotted away and bore hideous marks left by fingernails.
"Why can't anyone see it? Could it be Xiao Sun who did it? But no matter how powerful Xiao Sun is, he can't clear the place!"
Chen Ge walked a long way in the underground passage and saw a row of unlocked wards. Only then did he realize that all the doors in the entire hospital seemed to be unlocked and could be pushed open for inspection.
He didn't know what this meant, but he had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
"Be careful with the 'door.'"
The atmosphere in the hospital became increasingly weird, and the feeling of oppression gradually became stronger, as if the building they were in was constantly falling into the abyss, and no one inside could escape.
"Go ahead and you will find the isolation ward. All those who are brought into the hospital, whether they are doctors or patients, must be sent to the isolation ward first." Xuerong's eyeballs rolled, his pupils full of bloodshot.
"Then you should have been sent to the isolation ward. Do you remember what is in the isolation ward?" Chen Ge suspected that the hospital's killer move was in the isolation ward.
"The isolation ward is mainly used to observe patients and help them recognize themselves. Once their condition is slightly stable, they will be released." Xue Rong did not answer what was in the isolation ward, but only introduced the function of the isolation ward.
"How can a normal person recognize himself again? How can a person who was not sick in the first place become slightly stable?" Chen Ge frowned: "What is in the isolation ward?"
Chen Ge did not tell Xue Rong that he found Xiao Sun in the isolation ward.
"I really forgot. After I left the isolation ward, I couldn't remember what happened in the isolation ward." Xue Rong didn't seem to be lying: "I only know that after I left the isolation ward, I began to agree with the hospital's philosophy and volunteered to stay and work."
"Have you forgotten?" Chen Ge recalled the final stage of the ghost fetus scene. He did not see anything related to the isolation ward in the building where the ghost fetus' memory was buried. The ghost fetus' memory started directly from when it was moved into the ward.
According to Xue Rong, when new patients are brought to the hospital, they are first sent to the isolation ward, not to a ward.
"Has the ghost fetus also forgotten what happened to him in the isolation ward?"
Chen Ge continued to walk forward. There was no light around him, and no one was around. He gradually developed a strange feeling in his heart.
The underground building of the cursed hospital is just like the underground scene of his own horror house. The atmosphere is extremely similar, gloomy and terrifying, constantly creating nightmares and absorbing all kinds of negative emotions.
“It always feels like Black Cell and Cursed Hospital are trying to create the same thing, but they choose completely different ways.”
Coming to the end of the corridor, in front of Chen Ge was a staircase leading deeper underground. On the wall at the corner of the corridor, the words "Isolation Ward" were written crookedly.
The message from the wedding ring on his finger became clearer and clearer. Chen Ge was on high alert and slowly entered the second underground floor.
"Is this the isolation ward?"
Chen Ge looked towards the wards on both sides of the corridor. The rooms were filled with all kinds of old clothes and old shoes. Some styles were even out of print and were from more than ten years ago.
"I've seen a similar scene in the warehouse of the old hospital where Chi Ren worked. The shelves were filled with all kinds of shoes." That scene had a great impact on Chen Ge at the time. Each pair of shoes seemed to represent a person. After entering the warehouse, he felt as if there were dead people squatting on the shelves.
Going down the corridor, there are several warehouses filled with old clothes.
"How many people has the Cursed Hospital 'treated' in the past twenty years?"
Chen Ge didn't find anything special about the isolation ward yet. He just saw that the morbid words on the wall were increasing and densely packed. Even if he didn't look at them carefully, those words would be imprinted in his mind.
The smell of disinfectant in the air was so strong that it stung his nose. What made Chen Ge even more alert was that even such a strong smell of disinfectant could not cover up the faint stench in the air.
He was very familiar with that stench. He had smelled it behind the Netherworld Gate. It was a stench that only he could smell.
Carefully entering the deepest part of the isolation ward, Chen Ge finally stopped next to a door.
This is the fourth underground floor of the hospital, where the odor is the strongest and where the wedding ring's sensitivity is strongest.
Xiao Sun seemed to be behind that door.
"There's no one in the entire hospital. Why did they leave Xiao Sun behind the door? Has Xiao Sun been exposed? Or is it not just Xiao Sun, but all the ghosts cursing the hospital are behind this door?"
The situation in the Cursed Hospital was too strange, so Chen Ge did not dare to be careless. He thought for a moment, and before pushing the door, he silently recited Zhang Ya's name in his heart.
The shadow behind her caused ripples in her heart. Zhang Ya did not find anything unusual in the hospital. She did not sense any dangerous aura. It seemed to be just an ordinary abandoned hospital.
With the presence of the evil spirit, Chen Ge became much bolder. He signaled Xue Rong to go over and open the door at the deepest part of the isolation ward.
Xuerong is a relatively powerful person among the red-clothed ones. She is very strong and can protect herself when in danger. In addition, she is always on the verge of going crazy and cannot completely obey Chen Ge's command. Therefore, even if an accident occurs, it will not have a big impact on the overall combat effectiveness of the horror house.
Chen Ge considered all aspects before letting Xue Rong push the door. Xue Rong did not refuse. Her memory of the isolation ward was blank, and she wanted to fill in the missing parts.
Her wounded fingers fell on the door panel. Xuerong slowly exerted force. Just as she pushed the door open a tiny crack, the shadow behind Chen Ge began to spread like a black ocean!
The indescribable horror boiled to its peak, a pale hand pierced through reality and illusion, dragging an endless tide of blood towards the door!
At the same time, the door in front of Xue Rong had been opened at some point, and an arm with a black human face carved on it blocked Zhang Ya's blood tide. Then another blood-red arm stretched out from the door and grabbed Chen Ge's shoulder!
"Two evil gods!"
The black hair tightly wrapped around Chen Ge's body, and he became the focus of the game between the three evil spirits.
The body surface temperature instantly dropped to the lowest, and Chen Ge's body twisted and deformed. When he was about to be torn apart by the three evil spirits, the black hair completely wrapped Chen Ge, and Zhang Ya hugged him from behind and rushed into the door!
Zhang Ya's diary in the backpack turned to ashes, and lines of text were engraved on Chen Ge's body.
At the same time, the blood color in Yan Danian's comic book began to fade, and all the patterns disappeared. The evil ghosts and the red-clothed people were drawn into the door. As the owner of the comic book, Yan Danian was frantically sketching something with a ballpoint pen wrapped with tape when the comic book disappeared to the last page.
Before he was sucked into the door, the last picture he drew also appeared on Chen Ge's back.
The world was spinning, and his body seemed to be torn apart and reassembled. Chen Ge held his head with both hands, and countless memories in his brain were crushed. Scenes of painful memories that did not belong to him began to emerge.
"This is a sick world, and you know it!"
In less than half a minute, the fourth underground floor of the hospital had returned to normal. It was dead silent, depressing, and gloomy, without a trace of hope.
…
He slowly opened his eyes, his vision was a little blurry, and Chen Ge tried several times before he could find the focus.
My body aches a lot, the pain comes from all over the place, and the most painful place is my head.
Chen Ge couldn't fully control his body and could barely move his eyes. He found himself lying in a hospital ward.
The sunlight shines into the house through the windows with iron mesh, it is warm and comfortable.
The ward was not very big, and there were other people in the room. Chen Ge could vaguely hear their conversation.
"No obvious abnormalities were found in C-reactive protein, homocysteine, male hormone, head CT, pituitary CT, full chest X-ray, and nerve conduction velocity..."
"Before the last coma, he had a checkup and was conscious. There were no obvious abnormalities in the heart and lungs, no positive signs in the nervous system, and his limbs moved freely."
"It should have gotten better, but after treatment, the condition suddenly got worse again."
"The patient is a paranoid schizophrenic with severe delusions..."
Following the sound, Chen Ge slowly turned his neck and looked around him.
Two doctors in white coats were talking. When one of the young doctors found out that Chen Ge had woken up, he immediately shut up and walked out with the documents in his hand.
Another middle-aged doctor came to Chen Ge's bedside and asked, "How did you sleep last night?"
Chen Ge raised his head with difficulty. When he saw the face of the middle-aged doctor, he opened his mouth slightly but could not utter a word.
"Have you forgotten again?" The middle-aged doctor seemed to have gotten used to it. "I'm your attending physician. My name is Gao Ming. Gao means high, and Ming means remember. You can just call me Doctor Gao."
"Doctor Gao?" Chen Ge uttered these words slowly. His voice was completely hoarse and he even had difficulty speaking.
"It seems that you are awake now." Doctor Gao untied the straps that bound Chen Ge's feet. "When you had an attack last night, you made me and the nurse suffer a lot."
"Me? Having a seizure?" As soon as Chen Ge thought about it, he felt a sharp pain in his head, as if a knife had stabbed directly into his brain.
"Take the medicine and have a good rest. When your condition is completely stable, I will apply to transfer you to the general ward." Doctor Gao fed Chen Ge two white pills. After swallowing the medicine, Chen Ge felt that his headache was not as painful.
Only after watching Chen Ge swallow the pill did Dr. Gao prepare to leave.
"Wait a minute, Doctor Gao." Although he felt sleepy, Chen Ge still called out to Doctor Gao: "Where is this place?"
"Xinhai Central Hospital."
"Who sent me here?"
"Have a good sleep and don't think about those things anymore. It will aggravate your condition." Dr. Gao said and left.
The ward became quiet, and occasionally the sound of birds could be heard outside the window.
The warm sunlight shone through the wire mesh onto Chen Ge. He tried with all his strength, but still couldn't sit up.
"My head hurts..."
His brain was a little slow, and he would feel severe pain whenever he thought. Chen Ge could only lie in bed obediently.
I don’t know how long it was before the door of the ward was pushed open and a young female nurse walked in with food.
When Chen Ge saw the nurse's face, he almost blurted out: "Xu Wan?"
Hearing Chen Ge's voice, the nurse seemed a little surprised. She placed the food on the bedside table and sat next to Chen Ge: "You still remember my name? It's worth it that I have been taking good care of you for the past six months."
The female nurse has a very good personality, she looks cute and has a nice voice.
"Half a year? You took care of me for half a year?" Chen Ge frowned, his brain aching as if it were being pricked by needles.
Seeing Chen Ge in such pain, the female nurse quickly stood up and said, "Your condition is not stable yet, don't let your imagination run wild."
"Tell me, can you tell me..." The pain made Chen Ge's face twisted, but he still gritted his teeth and kept repeating those words.
"I can't provoke you anymore. Don't think too much. I'll go call a doctor right now!" Xu Wan turned around and was about to leave, but Chen Ge grabbed the corner of her clothes.
Turning back, Xu Wan saw Chen Ge's painful eyes.
"Who sent me here? What happened to me?"
Xu Wan didn't have the heart to leave. She sat by the bed and held Chen Ge's throbbing arm: "If you can calm down, I will tell you that this is also responsible for you."
Taking a deep breath, Chen Ge forced himself not to think, and the pain slowly disappeared.
His facial expression gradually returned to normal. Chen Ge looked like a wounded stray dog, his eyes filled with fatigue and pain after struggling.
"Can you tell me now?"
"More than half a year ago, you were driving your parents to the hospital and had a car accident on the way. In the end, you were the only one who was rescued." Xu Wan paused here. She observed Chen Ge's condition and saw that Chen Ge did not react excessively. Then she dared to continue: "You suffered a severe brain injury and were in a coma for a long time. You finally woke up, but you developed severe paranoia."
"Paranoia?"
"Yes, you don't want to admit that your parents have left, you always avoid reality and live in the memories you have woven." Xu Wan looked at Chen Ge with some heartache: "Sometimes you are manic, sometimes you make a scene, and occasionally when you are sober you will describe to us a world where people and ghosts coexist. You always say that you want to find your parents, and you think you will find them one day."
"That's not a story, it's not made up." Without thinking, Chen Ge said this subconsciously.
"I don't want to break the dream you've created, but if you live in a dream, you can only live with pain forever and you can't get rid of it." Xu Wan sighed softly, "In fact, you also understand that some things are false, just like you have never really found your parents in your own story, and because of the car accident, you are subconsciously afraid of driving, so you rarely drive to a place by yourself in the stories you made up. It's not that you don't understand, you just keep avoiding it."
