The main color of Liwan Private Hospital is white. It is the most conspicuous and also the most special building in the town.
I opened the rusty iron door and saw yellowed medical records scattered in the dark corridor. I picked up one at random and saw words like terminal illness, death, and malignant infection written on it.
The glass windows were creaking in the wind, and the doors of the wards were all open, as if the dead patients had returned here and might come out at any time.
There were fingerprints on the door frame, the walls were covered with unknown plants, and large chunks of the ceiling had fallen off, revealing strange patterns behind that looked like a human face.
This hospital is one of the most terrifying scenes in the town, and it welcomes all experiencers with its own unique attitude.
The floor was cracked and made noises when you walked on it. In this dead silence, any slight sound would make people feel terrified.
"Where did that guy named Li Xu go? They came in just a dozen seconds earlier than us, how come they disappeared in the blink of an eye?" Wang Yan's eyes were solemn. He stood in the waiting hall and looked at the two aisles on the left and right, trying to judge the whereabouts of the two men by the debris on the floor.
But what surprised him was that there were signs of people walking in both passages, with seven or eight footprints alone.
"Besides us, there are other people in this building." Wang Yan stared at the footprints on the ground, a little hesitant.
He knew very well that the actors in this haunted house were experts in the art of scaring people, and that any one of them could drive a person crazy, and there were probably several of them in this building right now.
"Which way are we going?" Wang Yan's girlfriend asked. She was dressed fashionably and coolly, but her body was shaking unconsciously. It was unclear whether it was because she was afraid or just felt a little cold.
"I remember that Li Xu and the male anchor were both wearing sneakers. Judging from the shoe prints on the ground, they should have walked to the left, but..." Wang Yan lowered his head in thought.
"But what? Can't we just talk it out nicely?" Zhang Huang was a little impatient. When people are in a completely unfamiliar environment, they will instinctively start to feel irritated and uneasy.
"Why don't you come and see for yourself?" Wang Yan took out his cell phone and shone it on the ground. There were two pairs of shoe prints side by side in the aisle on the left.
"The shoe prints in front have the tread of sneakers, but the shoe prints in the back have no tread. It is certain that the one following the tourist in front is not another tourist, but something else." Wang Yan was not trying to scare anyone, he was just telling the truth: "The difference between the two pairs of shoe prints is only 30 centimeters. Can't you see the problem now?"
Seeing that Zhang Huang still didn't understand, Wang Yan demonstrated it himself. He walked behind his girlfriend and stood thirty centimeters away from her. "The tourist was walking in front, and a strange thing followed him. The two of them walked the entire corridor. And you can see that the shoe prints on the ground are very regular. That is to say, until the end, the person walking in front did not realize that there was a 'person' following him thirty centimeters behind him."
"The employees of this haunted house are really cruel." It was Zhang Huang's first time to visit a haunted house. He began to feel guilty just by listening to Wang Yan's description.
"Li Xu and the male anchor should have walked to the left. The haunted house actors on the left are now attracted by Li Xu and the others, so that road should be safe." Wang Yan walked to the left alone.
After Wang Yan left, the hospital lobby became even more terrifying. The medical records on the ground were blown by the cold wind, making rustling sounds as they scraped against the ground. This was a torture for other tourists who were visiting the haunted house for the first time.
"Wait for me." Wang Yan's girlfriend and Zhang Huang also entered the corridor on the left.
Even though no one touched them, the doors of the wards on both sides made sounds by themselves. There might be some monsters hidden in those dark rooms.
Wang Yan and the other two walked very slowly and carefully, and they were almost squeezed together.
"This seems to be just an ordinary ward, but a little shabby and looks like no one has lived here for a long time." The layout inside the ward is so realistic that one would almost forget that it is a haunted house set.
"Be careful. The actors in the haunted house here are professionally trained. They can quietly follow behind tourists and use a variety of scary methods. You never know when you might get caught."
Danger may come from all aspects. Wang Yan and his colleagues not only have to be careful of the wards with half-open doors, but also have to be careful of cracked walls and floors, and even the top of their heads.
Their nerves were tense. If someone shouted at this moment, it would probably scare them to death.
It took them more than a minute to walk along the corridor, which was only a dozen meters long. When they reached the corner of the stairs, they realized that their backs were soaked.
"What? That's it? I thought an actor dressed as a ghost would rush out of the room." Zhang Huang breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not that scary actually. On the contrary, your initial analysis was quite creepy to me. Are you deliberately trying to create a scary atmosphere so as to scare us?"
This special sports recruit is indeed braver than ordinary people, and a very crucial point is that he doesn't want to perform worse than Wang Yan.
In fact, he looked down on Wang Yan from the bottom of his heart. He was a forensic medical student who only knew how to deal with corpses, had no interest, was ordinary-looking, was not tall, and came from a poor family. He was simply a person with no advantages at all.
Thinking of this, Zhang Huang’s fear dissipated a little, and he glanced at Wang Yan’s girlfriend again.
Wang Yan’s girlfriend was his high school classmate, but when he was in high school he didn’t realize that this girl would become so beautiful after she learned how to dress up.
After seeing her profile picture on the Internet, Zhang Huang couldn't even believe that it was her.
Wang Yan was a little angry when he heard Zhang Huang's words. He made his analysis with good intentions, but all he got in return was doubt. Such a person did not deserve help.
Wang Yan suppressed his unhappiness. Although he used to have a bad temper, his edges and corners had been smoothed out after visiting Chen Ge's haunted house.
He himself didn't know why. It might be because he had seen a real devil, so everyone looked kind and gentle to him now. Or it might be because he had fainted and been rescued time and time again in the underground morgue, and he vaguely heard the advice of the deceased professor of Jiujiang Forensic Medicine College.
Anyway, Wang Yan is different now than before, he has grown a lot.
Faced with Zhang Huang's repeated provocations, Wang Yan did not argue with him. He understood that arguing was a meaningless thing. His main purpose of coming here was to make Zhang Huang "happy" in the haunted house. As long as he could achieve his goal, nothing else mattered.
"Why don't you say anything? Are you feeling guilty?" Zhang Huang thought he saw through Wang Yan's thoughts: "Don't you think it's childish to come to a place like a haunted house to prove who is braver?"
Nodding, Wang Yan walked forward silently.
The atmosphere in the hospital became more and more weird. Li Xu and the male anchor had been there for a long time, but no sound was heard, not even footsteps. It was as if they had disappeared.
All the buildings in the town lead underground, and Liwan Private Hospital is no exception. Looking at the stairs extending deep underground, Wang Yan had a very strange idea - the reason why they did not encounter the haunted house actors was probably because the actors wanted to lead them underground before taking action. This would prevent tourists from running out of the building directly after being frightened.
As the light grew dimmer, the three became more careful.
"There's someone downstairs!" Just as they reached the corner between the underground and second floors, Wang Yan's girlfriend suddenly screamed.
"Where?" Wang Yan and Zhang Huang looked downstairs at the same time.
"It's right next to the railing on the second underground floor! I saw it! It's a pair of gray legs!"
Wang Yan and Zhang Huang looked in the direction of Wang Yan's girlfriend's finger, but there was nothing at the railing.
"It was there just now, and disappeared in a flash." Wang Yan's girlfriend took a few steps back and walked from the middle of the line to the back.
"I guess the actors heard our footsteps, so they ambushed there in advance, and you accidentally saw them." Zhang Huang said comfortingly.
"Okay...wait a minute!" Wang Yan's girlfriend suddenly pointed at Wang Yan's back and said, "What's that on your shoulder?"
"Me?" Wang Yan touched his back and found a medical record stuck on it.
There is a black and white photo printed on the front of this medical record, and a few words written crookedly on the back - Come see me?
"Who posted this?" Wang Yan instantly realized that he was being targeted. The words on this piece of paper could not have been written by Zhang Huang and his girlfriend, as neither of them brought a pen. Besides, the words on the paper were obviously written a long time ago.
"Do you think I'm as bored as you?" Zhang Huang was the first to wave his hand. Wang Yan's girlfriend also felt strange. The three of them were clearly walking together and didn't see anyone else passing by.
"Don't you have any stickers on your back?" Wang Yan looked at Zhang Huang and his girlfriend nervously, only to find that only his back was covered. "Is it because I was walking in the front?"
Looking at the medical record in his hand, the person in the black-and-white photo seemed to be smiling at him. Wang Yan broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead. He knew that this scene was about to begin to reveal its true horror.
"What are you mumbling to yourself about?" Zhang Huang saw that Wang Yan was frightened, and he grinned: "Same trick, you want to try it a second time?"
As if he understood something, he said to Wang Yan's girlfriend, "Old classmate, your boyfriend is really interesting. We didn't see anyone else on the way here. If the paper on his back wasn't put there by us, who do you think put it there?"
Wang Yan’s girlfriend also gradually understood: “Did he put it there himself? Impossible, Wang Yan…”
"If he didn't put it there himself, then it could have been put there by a ghost? He wants to scare us and then pretend to be very brave. This kind of person is really boring."
"No way?" With Zhang Huang trying to sow discord, Wang Yan's girlfriend gradually began to doubt.
Holding the medical record in his hand, Wang Yan's pupils twitched rapidly and he looked around vigilantly. He knew that danger was about to come. This medical record was a "death notice"!
"We've been targeted. There's no point throwing it away." Wang Yan heard the conversation of the two people behind him clearly. He took a breath, bit his lip, and turned around.
Seeing the suspicion and a hint of disappointment in his girlfriend's eyes, Wang Yan's tense expression slowly relaxed. He clenched his hands unwillingly, then loosened them again. Finally, he said to Zhang Huang frankly, "Okay, I admit that I put it there myself."
"Why are you doing this? You weren't like this before." Wang Yan's girlfriend's voice gradually became louder.
“I just want to prove that I have my merits.” Wang Yan’s pupils twitched wildly and goose bumps appeared on the back of his neck, but he managed to stay calm. “There is a legend in this haunted house. If you write down the words - come find me - on a piece of paper, you might meet a real ghost. I just want to prove that I am brave.”
"Naive! If you want to hear urban legends, I can tell you a hundred of them." Zhang Huang was even more disdainful of Wang Yan.
"I admit that I'm a little jealous of you. I'm not as handsome as you, not as good at dressing up as you, and my family is not as rich as yours. I was completely beaten by you when we played basketball before. Compared with you, I'm too ordinary, so I want to prove that I am better than you in some ways." Wang Yan's voice began to tremble. He saw a pair of gray legs step out of the door in the corridor where he came from.
"So you use this method?" Zhang Huang's vanity was satisfied, especially in front of Wang Yan's girlfriend: "I really can't imagine that you, a medical student, would believe these weird stories. Don't you know that they are all made up by boring people?"
"Then do you dare to try it?" Wang Yan seemed to be waiting for Zhang Huang to say this. He spoke so quickly that Zhang Huang couldn't react.
"What?" Zhang Huang was still immersed in his pride and never expected Wang Yan to say such a thing.
"Since you think that ghost stories are all made up, it's okay to give it a try." Wang Yan said as he pasted the medical record on Zhang Huang's back: "Actually, after seeing you, I realized that there are many people in this world who are better than me. I have to keep running to catch up with people like you."
Wang Yan's words left Zhang Huang confused. She felt very proud and happy, but she also felt that something was not right.
"I feel much better now that I've spoken out my heart. I'll be more honest in the future." Wang Yan patted Zhang Huang on the back to make sure the medical record was firmly attached and would not fall off. "Let's go, let's continue exploring. I won't tell you those boring ghost stories anymore."
Wang Yan pushed Zhang Huang to the front of the team. He said with a hint of apology: "In fact, this haunted house is not as scary as the rumors say. The reason we said that to outsiders is just to cover up the fact that we are timid."
Zhang Huang still didn't understand the situation, but after hearing what Wang Yan said, he was not so scared anymore: "Is it really not scary?"
"That's right, this haunted house is not scary at all. When I visited it last time, I was so bored that I fell asleep." Wang Yan said sincerely as he pushed Zhang Huang downstairs.
