Extra 3: Zhao Ming
Zhao Ming and Lin Lin are from the same place.
The only difference is that Zhao Ming came to the strange world naturally after his death, while Lin Lin was sucked into this place by a space-time rift by chance.
In fact...after his death, Zhao Ming did not want to continue being a doctor because his death was related to the hospital.
It was a bizarre medical accident. Despite his best efforts, he still failed to save the patient's life and was caught in a whirlpool of public opinion.
In order to calm the situation, the hospital put all the blame on him.
Those groundless accusations and malicious speculations came like a tide, completely drowning him.
His reputation and his beliefs collapsed in an instant.
Every night, those painful memories would haunt him like ghosts, preventing him from falling asleep.
Finally, on a suffocatingly silent night, he looked at the dim moonlight outside the window, his heart filled with despair, and chose to end his life.
When he regained consciousness, he was already in this strange world.
The surroundings were filled with eerie fog, and strange sounds echoed in his ears. These things accompanied him until Lin Lin used the recruitment card, and he finally escaped from the fog...
The first time he became a doctor, it was his heart's desire, it came from his reverence for life and his love for medicine. He stepped into the sacred hall of medicine with the dream of saving the dying and healing the wounded, and every time he picked up the scalpel, he was determined and proud.
However, at this moment, becoming a doctor for the second time, he was very resistant. He resisted those medical record folders, as if they were the reappearance of a nightmare; he resisted those scalpels. In this strange and terrifying world, he was afraid to face the disappearance and powerlessness of life again, afraid to repeat the same mistakes, and afraid that the unbearable weight would crush him again.
But fate seemed unwilling to let him go. Whenever he felt disgusted with the patients who came to see him, he would feel a sharp pain as if his soul was being pulled out.
The pain was like sharp steel needles that pierced deep into his soul, causing him to break out in cold sweat and almost faint.
Every resistance was met with more intense torture, as if an invisible force was forcing him to pick up the scalpel that he once loved and feared, and face these "responsibilities" that did not belong to him.
After many attempts, he finally understood that in this strange world, practicing medicine had become his inescapable fate.
He began to try to let go of the shadow of the past. Although he was still afraid and unwilling, the excruciating pain forced him to compromise.
He picked up the medical record folder with trembling hands, looked at the unclear yet painful information on it, took a deep breath, and walked towards the "patient" waiting for treatment.
As the treatment progressed, he gradually discovered that these patients were different from those in the real world.
Some of them are tortured by ancient curses, while others have their bodies corroded by strange forces.
Every successful treatment not only relieves the patient's pain, but also seems to slowly heal the trauma deep in his heart.
During this process, the fear I once had about hospitals and the medical profession began to quietly dissipate.
In the process, he also met some people who were also trapped in this strange world. Some of them had strange abilities, and some possessed mysterious knowledge.
In his communication and cooperation with them, he gradually realized that perhaps in this seemingly hopeless world, he could rediscover the value and meaning of his existence, not only as a doctor, but also as a guardian who could fight against darkness and pain...
Zhao Ming had complicated feelings towards Dean Lin, who was much younger than him.
It’s not that she’s dissatisfied with Lin Lin becoming the director of Ankang Hospital, but... for some reason, she can study those diseases on the strange body without changing her expression.
In Zhao Ming's opinion, the body structure and diseases of those "patients" from the strange world were far beyond his previous understanding.
Every time he faced those twisted and deformed bodies emitting an inexplicable aura, as well as those bizarre and irrational illnesses, the fear and resistance deep in his heart would unconsciously surge up, as if an invisible hand was pulling him, making him want to escape.
Lin Lin, on the other hand, seemed like a fearless explorer.
Her eyes always revealed a kind of determination and persistence. She had no fear of those strange diseases. She even had a strong curiosity and couldn't wait to conduct in-depth research to uncover the hidden secrets.
Zhao Ming sometimes wonders if he is really old. After going through so many things, he has lost his former courage and drive.
In the past, when faced with common difficult and complicated diseases in the hospital, he would rush to the front without hesitation and try his best to solve them.
But now that he has come to this strange world, those "diseases" that are beyond his imagination have made him want to give up.
I don’t know if it’s because I have been in contact with her so much, but I can face those strange illnesses without any psychological barriers.
At first, every time he approached those "patients" who exuded a gloomy aura, his hands would tremble unconsciously, his forehead would be covered with cold sweat, and his heart would seem to jump out of his throat.
But Lin Lin always remained calm and composed. Her calmness and professionalism were like an invisible force, subtly influencing Zhao Ming.
Under her guidance, Zhao Ming slowly forced himself to face up to these symptoms, overcame his inner fear again and again, and gradually found that he could focus on treatment as before, and no longer be dominated by fear.
As time went by, Zhao Ming admired Lin Lin more and more.
She not only has solid medical knowledge and superb medical skills, but also has an extremely tenacious heart.
In this strange world full of unknowns and dangers, Lin Lin is like a bright light, illuminating Zhao Ming's originally gloomy world, allowing him to regain a part of his former self and giving him hope to move forward. Although this road is still full of hardships and challenges, with Lin Lin by his side, Zhao Ming feels that he seems to have the courage and motivation to persevere.
Just when he was gradually getting used to fighting side by side with Lin Lin and dealing with various strange illnesses together in Ankang Hospital, Lin Lin suddenly disappeared.
At first, Ankang Hospital fell into chaos because of her disappearance.
The hospital staff seemed to have lost some restraint. The ghost nurses who had been barely maintaining order at their respective posts began to wander around. The sound of instruments colliding echoed in the empty corridor, and every sound hit Zhao Ming's tense nerves.
The "patients" in the ward also sensed this change. Their groans of pain intertwined into one, as if expressing anxiety and fear. The entire hospital was shrouded in an atmosphere of despair.
