Chapter 80
"Doctor Kobayashi, please save me! I don't want to suffer like this. If you don't plan to save me, just kill me. Let me die! I will be grateful to you. Really, I am living a life worse than death now. I already know I was wrong. I shouldn't have come here. I shouldn't have seen you and caused you trouble. Please, since I already know I was wrong, please forgive me!"
The burn patient screamed and wailed at the doctor.
The doctor hurriedly left the ward because he had no medicine to give to the patient, nor could he kill the patient. He didn't know what to say now. Perhaps he knew that nothing he said now would be of any use. If there was no medicine, no matter how nice the words were, it would only be a smallpox.
Patients don't need or want to hear it.
The doctor shook his head and left the ward, where the patient was crying bitterly.
While the doctor was away, Leyuan rushed to the door of the ward and took a look inside. The patient didn't notice, but Leyuan saw through the gap in the door that there was a green mucus mark on the white wall inside. It didn't look clean, and it looked like the stuff left on the infectious patient he had seen before.
Leyuan frowned, thought of a bad possibility, and quickly stepped back and ran away.
The hospital is huge and pitch black everywhere. Perhaps it is because of the lack of electricity and the need to save electricity everywhere that has caused this situation. But when looking out the window here, you can see that the sky outside is black, as if it was night before entering. Hospitals are scary places to begin with, and the horror of hospitals doubles after dark, plus the patients...
It is not advisable to stay here for long.
Leyuan wanted to leave, but found that he couldn't find the hospital entrance no matter what. This meant that he couldn't leave here no matter what.
Although the hospital has more than one door, who knows what will happen if you open the other doors? Maybe it will lead to an abyss.
Leyuan remained quiet nervously and walked upstairs to see what was happening on other floors. He heard someone talking and walked closer. He heard two girls arguing in a lighted room that seemed to be a nurse's station.
"Please, don't talk like that, okay? It sounds sad! Besides, just because I'm born dumber than others, I can't be a nurse? I don't think so. I really want to be a nurse, this is true, please don't try to drive me away. I will correct it, I already know I was wrong."
"You don't sound like you know you're wrong. So let me ask you, since you know you're wrong, where is your mistake?"
"My mistake was that I didn't use my own body to perform the injection, but used the bodies of burn patients and vegetative patients to practice my injection technique. It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, the patient wouldn't have jumped up in pain. If the patient didn't feel pain, he wouldn't have left the ward. If the patient didn't leave the ward, he wouldn't have appeared in our operating room, causing the operation to fail. I killed the patient!"
The little nurse started crying.
Another nurse said, "It's no use crying now. Since you said that, I will assume that you have a repentant heart and will not cause you any trouble. I will also temporarily refrain from arguing with you. But you have to know that I am not arguing for the sake of arguing. This is all your fault. If you were not wrong, I would not argue with you. This is how it is. You see, I am very nice to other people."
"I know," the nurse holding the syringe lowered her head and looked at her palm, trembling slightly, and said, "You are a person who is strict with yourself. You can do it, you did it, but I can't. I have tried very hard. I don't know why it is like this? Don't you have to die a good death even if you work hard? Is it wrong to work hard? Can't working hard make me like a normal person?"
She choked up and said, "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, I will change, I will work harder, I will use my body to practice the injection technique, I won't let you worry anymore."
The young nurse with the syringe stood up and said to the older nurse, "Then I'll leave."
She wiped away her tears and said, "I'll go out for rounds. Maybe the patients need me. I will pay attention to my condition and ability. I won't forget to practice. Don't worry."
The older nurse was skeptical, but nodded, picked up the tray and said, "Okay, go ahead. I'll look for the head nurse, she's very busy."
The young nurse with the syringe left, and the older nurse walked behind her and turned off the light. After walking out, she walked through the quiet and dark corridor, as if she could recognize the way with her eyes closed. She found the head nurse, who was talking to a younger nurse. That nurse was the one who wanted to confess to the doctor before. I don’t know where she has been during this time, and her hands are green.
The head nurse was asking her this: "What is that in your hand?"
The nurse whispered, "I saw an empty stretcher near the door. I thought there was a patient there, so I went to check. I found that there was no one inside or outside, but there was a pile of green, black, smelly things on the stretcher, as well as used bandages. The rest was a sticky liquid. I couldn't tell what it was before. I was very scared and wanted to find a place to deal with it."
Then I met the head nurse who was blocked here and questioned her.
The head nurse relaxed her frown a little, waved her hand and said, "Then go and deal with this thing quickly. Remember not to throw it away randomly. Put it in the trash can and then wash your hands."
The confession nurse nodded and left quickly.
Leyuan avoided her and hid beside the room, continuing to eavesdrop on the nurses' conversation inside.
The head nurse turned around and looked at the older nurse: "What do you want to say?"
The older nurse wanted to report the behavior of the syringe nurse to the head nurse, but considering that the syringe nurse had begged her sincerely before, she hesitated. The head nurse asked impatiently: "Do you want to stand here and waste my time?!"
The elderly nurse said quickly, "There are not enough bandages over there, and there are fewer syringes. If things continue like this, we won't be able to change the dressings for the patients who originally lived here. We will soon be unable to do anything."
The head nurse's face darkened. "Do you think I don't know? Why do you need to tell me? I can't do anything! I'm not an ambulance or a pharmacy. It's useless to come to me. Do you hear me?"
The older nurse nodded, and the head nurse said, "Okay, you can go out now. I will find you when there is a solution. If there is a solution, why would I wait until now? Don't worry, it's useless to worry. In short, just wait for the notification, don't do anything else. If the patient asks, just say there will be a solution, and it will be better after waiting for a while."
The older nurse nodded and walked out.
The head nurse sat in a chair and let out a long sigh: "So many people, so many things, so troublesome. I haven't been paid for three months, and eight nurses have left. If this continues, not only will the hospital go bankrupt, but everyone will be doomed. I just hope there will be a solution by then. I can't control it anymore."
Leyuan quietly left the door of the room and walked in the direction the nurse had walked, wanting to take a look to see if the things were really thrown into the trash can. When he walked over, before he saw anyone, he heard a sound of running water. At first he thought someone was going to the toilet, but after listening carefully, he found that was not the case. Leyuan turned around and saw the source of the sound.
It was a public toilet. Leyuan approached cautiously and took a look. He found that it was the nurse who was washing her hands with her head down. He breathed a sigh of relief. Then, Leyuan realized something was wrong. He looked over again and found that the nurse was gone. The place where she had just stood to wash her hands was covered with a sticky green liquid, and the clean glass mirror was also smeared with this stuff.
It seemed that when the park wasn't paying attention, a balloon bomb filled with green liquid just exploded here.
Leyuan suddenly realized that this place was very dangerous and unsafe, so he ran away quickly, trying to reduce the noise he could make and trying to hide. However, it was not a good place to hide as he seemed to be discovered at any time. Leyuan thought for a while halfway, turned around, and followed the same path to the vicinity of the head nurse, where the room was with the light on.
It's very bright here because it's one of the few places in the corridor where there are lights on, people around, and no one is wailing.
A white figure suddenly floated out from in front of my eyes, like a cockroach that suddenly jumped from the left to the right.
Leyuan felt very cold and shivered, hugging himself. Jongin was behind him and hugged him as well. They blinked and looked at the head nurse's position together. They felt that the terrifying atmosphere had been dispelled a lot, and Leyuan stuck close to Jongin.
There were voices talking over there.
The head nurse asked, "Why are you here again? Have you thrown away your things? Have you washed your hands? Why do you look so weird? What are you laughing at? What's so funny? You don't usually smile at me like this. It's weird. Can you be more normal?"
"Head Nurse, you already knew about my affairs, right? About the confession, about the notebook, and about the diary?"
"Why are you suddenly bringing this up? You just need to do your job, and I won't say anything, won't do unnecessary things, and won't bother you. We can still get along like before, what's wrong with that? You suddenly brought it up, do you have an opinion? Do you want me to go out with a loud speaker and tell everyone your story? I don't want that. I also advise you to think it over before you speak."
The head nurse's voice changed from surprise to joking to serious.
The confessing nurse let out a weird and continuous laugh: "You are the head nurse, what do you have to be afraid of? You are not afraid of anything, but I am afraid of everything. I can't stand this kind of life anymore, it feels like I am being monitored and controlled all the time!"
