Chapter 58 The Man Behind the Iron Gate



After Chi Mu pressed the button for the seventh floor that appeared out of thin air, the elevator began to rise slowly. The numbers kept changing, and Chi Mu's heart was in his throat.

He didn't know if his decision was right, but the button on the seventh floor was real.

The rules of the mental hospital only say that if you see the button for the seventh floor, just ignore it, but don't say that you are forbidden to press it or go there.

——"Oh my god, Chi Mu actually wants to go to the seventh floor, but this floor doesn't exist at all. Will there be something scary there?"

——"Going to the seventh floor may not be a bad thing. There is nothing in the rules and regulations that forbids pressing the button. Regardless of whether Chi Mu has cognitive confusion or not, at least it does not violate the rules."

——"I hope there's nothing bad on the seventh floor..."

——"Humph, the Chosen Ones of your Dragon Nation never act according to normal routines. This time they will definitely die on the seventh floor!"

——"Foreign friends upstairs, bagpipes are heard in the distance."

"bite!"

As the elevator stopped, Chi Mu saw a red "7" on the elevator display.

The elevator door slowly opened, and a dark corridor appeared in front of Chi Mu.

"Is this the seventh floor... Sure enough, the seventh floor really exists. It's not like what the mental hospital rules say there is no seventh floor!"

Chi Mu was a little excited, his guess was right.

He walked out of the elevator carefully. In order to prevent the elevator from disappearing, Chi Mu waited at the door for a few minutes. When he found that the elevator would not disappear, he walked deeper into the corridor with confidence.

This place is completely different from other floors. There are no wards on both sides of the corridor, only thick walls.

What's weird is that there are a lot of graffiti drawn with crayons on the walls, which look a bit creepy.

"Who's coming?"

Suddenly, a faint voice came from the deepest part of the corridor, echoing in the corridor on the seventh floor.

Chi Mu was so frightened by the sudden sound that he trembled and almost fell to the ground.

"Who's talking? Where are you?"

Chi Mu shouted at the air. In such an environment, he was really scared.

People are most afraid of the unknown in the darkness.

When the man heard Chi Mu's voice, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and spoke after a long time: "So you are not that crazy guy Yang Yong, then who are you? What are you doing here?"

This time Chi Mu heard clearly that the sound came from the innermost part of the corridor. He stood up and walked inside, and found a gray iron door at the end of the corridor.

The person who was speaking should be locked up inside.

Chi Mu was very confused. There was such a large space on the seventh floor, but there was only one ward, and the door was an iron door.

Holding patients in this manner is like being in a prison.

"I am a patient in this hospital. Who are you?"

Chi Mu walked outside the iron gate and asked tentatively.

The man in the iron gate laughed and said, "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you discovered my existence... If Yang Yong knew about it, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to leave alive."

"Why do you say that? Isn't Yang Yong the dean?"

The man behind the iron gate smiled coldly, and suddenly changed his tone, saying, "Little ghost, do you want to consider letting me out? I know you are a normal person, and you definitely want to escape from this mental hospital."

"I'm the only one who can take you out of here. Go to Yang Yong's office and steal the key. Then let me out and I'll take you out of this mental hospital. How about that?"

The people behind the iron gate kept extending olive branches to Chi Mu.

Chi Mu frowned when he heard the words of the man in the iron gate. Who is he? Why was he locked up alone on the seventh floor?

Also, the seventh floor normally does not appear on the elevator buttons at all.

After thinking for a while, Chi Mu asked, "Do you know which floor this is?"

"The seventh floor, a floor that does not exist in the mental hospital regulations."

Chi Mu was once again stunned by the person behind the iron gate. He actually knew the rules of the mental hospital!

Chi Mu even began to doubt whether the person in the iron gate was the normal person mentioned in the mission who could take him out of the mental hospital.

But now Chi Mu knew nothing about his identity, and he couldn't trust him based on just a few words from him. What if he was a psychopathic murderer, and he let him go, wouldn't that be shooting himself in the foot?

Seeing that Chi Mu didn't speak for a long time, the person in the iron gate spoke again: "I know you don't trust me. I can tell you a few things and you can verify them."

"If you verify and find that what I said is true, you will probably believe me."

"Okay, go ahead."

Chi Mu waited for the person inside the iron gate to speak.

"I wonder if you ever play a game called 'Four Corners' with your fellow patients in your ward?"

Chi Mu was stunned and replied, "I just played it before coming here."

"While you were playing, you should have discovered that one or two of the three people who played this game with you disappeared out of thin air after you finished playing, right?"

Chi Mu was startled. Before he could speak, the person in the iron gate continued, "You are silent, you must have encountered this situation. But when you wake up tonight, you will find that those who disappeared have suddenly returned."

"Besides this, you must be curious about why those people's conditions became worse after taking the white pills..."

At this point, he suddenly stopped, suddenly changed his mind, and said: "Forget it, let's talk about this later. You can verify the first thing I said first."

Chi Mu wanted to ask more, but the person behind the iron gate suddenly said, "You should leave here. It's already ten o'clock in the evening. If you don't go back to the ward, you will be sent to get electric shock if the doctor catches you."

Chi Mu was shocked. It was only around eight o'clock when he arrived at the seventh floor.

It was just a few words, how could so much time have passed?

Unexpectedly, he heard the bell ringing outside the mental hospital. He had seen that bell outside during the day, and it would ring every hour.

Chi Mu counted the number of times the bell rang, and sure enough, there were ten rings!

Chi Mu didn't linger any longer and immediately walked towards the elevator.

"I will verify what you said."

Before leaving, Chi Mu said to the people inside the iron gate.

Chi Mu believed that the people behind the iron gate knew a lot about this mental hospital. As for why he was locked up here, he could only wait until the next time he came to ask him.

Or maybe he could find information about the seventh level in the mental hospital.

After getting into the elevator, Chi Mu discovered that the button for the seventh floor had disappeared, which meant that if he left the seventh floor now, he would never have the chance to come up again today.

The elevator door closed and Chi Mu felt that he stepped on something. He looked down and found that it was a piece of paper.
