"Wang Haiming was possessed by a dirty creature in the mental hospital, and after he was discharged, he took the monster out of the mental hospital."
"The two sides must have been fighting for control of the body. Wang Haiming refused to compromise and eventually died in his own rental house."
His strange death and the weird behavior that he only performed at night can support Chen Ge's speculation.
"After Wang Haiming died, the monster he brought out of the mental hospital might have stayed in this house. His body was taken away during the day, and there were so many police and onlookers that the monster certainly didn't dare to show up. And at night, Room 303 was completely sealed off, and the monster had no chance to look for prey."
"Normally, this monster that came out of the mental hospital would be sealed in the house, but looking at the current situation, the monster has reached an agreement with the young people in 302 through unknown means."
"I guess it was because of Wang Haiming's mistake that the monster didn't take over the young man's body this time. The two sides should be using each other."
Chen Ge looked at the corpses of the sparrows on the ground: "There are a lot of bloodstains on the clothes. These sparrows are not enough. The agreement between the monster and the young man should have started a long time ago."
He thought of what the young man had said in the room before. When the young man in 302 was shouting in the room, he said, "Stop pushing me." This sentence can reveal a lot.
First of all, he was forced to do certain things that went against his original intention. Combined with the situation in Room 303, the dirty guy was probably forcing him to bring back some living things.
A few sparrows could not satisfy the monster at all, so its request might be larger living creatures, such as stray cats, dogs, or even humans.
The second point is the young man's choice of words. When arguing, he did not call the other party "you" but "you guys", which shows that there is more than one dirty guy forcing him. And this is also the point that Chen Ge is most confused about now. Who is the monster that Wang Haiming brought out of the mental hospital in Room 303?
After putting everything back in place, Chen Ge walked towards the window. Because of the angle, the young man in 302 didn't know he was discovered. When he saw Chen Ge walking towards the window, he immediately retreated back to his room.
"There's one more person we need to be on guard against tonight." Chen Ge stepped onto the window sill and held onto the window frame with his arms. As his center of gravity shifted, his eyes glanced at the bathroom in Room 303.
Behind the half-open door, there seemed to be a tall, thin black shadow standing there, with two different faces.
“Someone?!”
Startled, Chen Ge almost dropped his grip. He looked carefully and found that there was nothing in the bathroom again, except for a faint flash of something in the mirror facing the door.
Standing on the edge of the windowsill without any safety measures was quite dangerous. Chen Ge did not dare to stay any longer. He moved most of his body to room 304 and slowly entered it.
"Did you find anything?" Dr. Gao asked purely out of politeness.
"Look at this." Chen Ge took the key out of his pocket: "Doctor Gao, is there any door in your hospital that requires this kind of key to open?"
Doctor Gao took the key from Chen Ge and looked at it. This key was just a little bigger than an ordinary key. "It doesn't look like a key to the operating room or office. I'm not sure."
Unable to get an answer from Dr. Gao, Chen Ge had no choice but to put the key away and wait until he entered the third ward before looking for another opportunity to try.
"You searched next door for a long time and finally found a key?" Doctor Gao hung up the phone. Chen Ge was very mysterious when he went there, but the result was a disappointment.
"Don't underestimate this key. It might be the key to tonight." Chen Ge put away the key and glanced towards the bedroom: "Is Men Nan asleep?"
"I don't recommend letting him sleep in Room 304. The patient himself is afraid of this environment. If he falls asleep here, he is likely to give himself psychological hints, and the chance of having nightmares is very high." Doctor Gao is a little worried about Men Nan's condition: "Now that we have determined that his mental illness is caused by his childhood experience, we should prescribe the right medicine and provide relevant psychological counseling."
"Things are not as simple as you think." Chen Ge patiently explained to Dr. Gao that the other party had never seen anything in that world, so his thinking was limited: "If Men Nan was only traumatized by his mother's murder in childhood, then why did his symptoms become more severe after he moved into the new apartment?"
Dr. Gao couldn't think of an answer to this question either.
"The childhood experience was only a trigger. The root of the problem lies in this apartment. Something here must have seriously stimulated him and caused him to become ill. This is the real cause of the disease." Chen Ge tried his best to express his thoughts without exposing the existence of those things.
Doctor Gao nodded after hearing this. Although Chen Ge seemed unreliable to him, one thing was undeniable: Wang Xin's condition started to improve after being alone with Chen Ge.
From the doctor's perspective, he was very curious about Chen Ge's various ideas and treatment process, but from the patient's perspective, no matter what Chen Ge did, as long as the disease could be cured in the end, it would be fine.
Chen Ge saw that Dr. Gao was hesitating and it was not easy to convince him: "Even if he goes to other places, he will still have that dream. Haven't you tried it before? In my opinion, it is better to let him fall asleep in this room. The two of us will stay by his side. As long as he shows an uncomfortable and painful expression, we will wake him up immediately."
The treatment of mental illness is a long process, and there may be problems in the future. Dr. Gao thought about it for a long time and finally agreed.
After discussing it, the two entered the bedroom, only to find that Men Nan was already lying on the bed.
He was so sleepy that he fell asleep on the edge of the bed with his chin on the pillow.
After carrying Men Nan to the bed, Chen Ge wanted to check Men Nan's head and cervical spine, but was stopped by Doctor Gao.
"Let him get some sleep."
"Yes." Chen Ge brought a chair over: "Let's split up, one of us will guard the first half of the night, and the other will guard the second half. If he shows any abnormality, wake him up immediately."
"Go and rest first, leave this to me."
Dr. Gao asked Chen Ge to take a nap on the sofa in the living room, and he stayed in the room to look after Men Nan.
Before coming here, Chen Ge had been running around the haunted house with a hammer for the whole afternoon, and in the meantime he had also found time to make twenty-four simulated human heads, so he was indeed a little tired. He turned his phone to vibrate, set the timer for midnight, lay on the sofa, rested his head on Xiao Xiao, and soon fell asleep.
…
Chen Ge was half asleep and felt a vibration in his palm. He sat up from the sofa and looked at his watch. It was exactly midnight.
He entered the bedroom and found Dr. Gao with a worried look on his face. Before he could say anything, he saw Dr. Gao making a gesture to him to keep quiet.
The two stood beside the bed in the bedroom. After about five or six minutes, Men Nan, who was obviously asleep on the bed, suddenly supported his body with his arms, as if he wanted to sit up.
After trying several times without success, Men Nan spread his arms out to both sides again, as if he was not the one who had just done all that.
"Sleepwalking?" Chen Ge asked Doctor Gao in a low voice. The doctor shook his head slightly and pointed at Men Nan's eyes.
Following the direction of Dr. Gao's finger, Chen Ge saw that Men Nan had kept his eyes open from beginning to end, but two-thirds of his eye sockets were white.
