Mengyan stood at the door and heard the footsteps approaching quickly from inside. He pursed his lips, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help curling up.
"Click!"
The door was opened, and a figure stood in front of him against the light.
Mengyan raised his eyes expectantly, and then his eyes quickly became dull. The person blocking the door completely blocked the situation in the ward.
"Mengyan!" He flew towards someone else's bed, opened his arms excitedly, and reached forward fiercely, but missed...
A light yellow kitten quickly slipped into the ward through the gap.
Yu Xiao and the other two were looking out, but unfortunately, the bed brother was blocking the door, and they couldn't see anything clearly. Suddenly, a light figure came from the bed brother's feet, jumped to Yu Xiao's feet, looked up with a pair of big eyes and stared at Yu Xiao without blinking.
"You..." Yu Xiao felt very complicated, "Are you okay?"
Meng Yan shook his head, his eyes flickered and said, "It's okay."
"That's good." Yu Xiao nodded. "
It's a great thing that Meng Yan can come back." Flying to someone else's bed, he turned around and said, "Do you want to celebrate?"
Yu Xiao's mouth twitched. Of course, she welcomed Meng Yan's return, but some things had to be made clear. The reason why Meng Yan was brought to the ward was because St. Elizabeth's collapsed, and she had to do so in order to prevent Meng Yan from being discovered.
Before bringing Meng Yan to the ward, Yu Xiao had discussed with the two sisters that Meng Yan's stay in the ward was only temporary, and he would be allowed to leave when St. Elizabeth's was rebuilt or Meng Yan got rid of his status as a wanted criminal.
However, in the past few days, Meng Yan has been very obedient and tried to reduce his presence in the ward. He also helped them a lot, and Yu Xiao no longer regarded Meng Yan as a troublesome thing that was difficult to get rid of. She thought for a moment, and said to Meng Yan: "I told you before, once you regain your freedom, I can help you get a good job."
Meng Yan's eyes were lost for a moment, and he said: "I want to stay here."
Yu Xiao: "But..."
"I'm very useful, I can help." Meng Yan said, looking at Fei Xiang's bed, and said: "My ability can not only affect one ward, through the phone, even if I'm not in the same hospital, I can control the dream."
Fei Xiang's bed's eyes changed immediately, and he also understood what Meng Yan meant. That is, help me speak, and I will help you sleep.
"Little friend." Flying towards someone else's bed, he said, "If I were you, I would not let Mengyan go. Not only because he can control dreams, but also because of his strength. I know you are capable and have many ideas, but the situation in the dungeon is unpredictable. Even if you can guarantee your own safety, can you guarantee the safety of the other two children? But with Mengyan here, the situation is different."
Flying towards someone else's bed, Mengyan nodded repeatedly after hearing these words. Yu Xiao saw it and thought to himself, you two are making a deal in front of me, do you really think I can't see it?
Yu Xiao turned around and looked at Sister Lan and Xiaozhen. Zhou
Xiaozhen said, "I will listen to you." Zhao Lan pondered and said, "I have just thought of many possibilities to keep Meng Yan. I think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."
Yu Xiao: "So you agree to let him stay?"
"Yeah." Zhao Lan nodded first, then said, "Of course it depends on your opinion."
Yu Xiao: "..." So the decision-making power is in my hands again?
Meng Yan looked at Zhao Lan gratefully, then said, "In the future, buying meals, receiving and sending express deliveries, cleaning and tidying up in the ward can all be left to me."
Zhao Lan raised his eyebrows and thought, there is actually an unexpected gain?
"Hehe." Yu Xiao's mouth twitched slightly. The current Nightmare reminded her of Ripley. It seemed that Ripley's character was not completely a disguise. "Okay, you can stay."
Nightmare happily returned to his original appearance, and then he walked to Yu Xiao's bed.
Yu Xiao: "?"
He began to help Yu Xiao fold the quilt.
Yu Xiao: "..." Fei
Xiang's bed watched this scene happily. Nightmare came back, and his sleep quality was guaranteed. When he was about to go to sleep immediately, Nightmare folded Yu Xiao's quilt, walked to Fei Xiang's bed, bent down and picked up the paper shell on the ground that was used as a cool mat.
Flying to someone else's bed: "?"
"You don't have to stay here, I can also control your dream." Nightmare looked at Flying to someone else's bed, "Maybe you should go back to your own ward? At least there is a bed to sleep in."
Flying to someone else's bed: "..."
After staying in the hospital for so many years, Flying to someone else's bed finally felt the malice from society.
Nightmare put away the paper shell, wiped it with his hand, and asked: "Do you need me to assemble this into a box?"
...
"Pick up the courier." The sweet voice of the courier girl sounded outside the door.
Mengyan pushed a huge paper box out. Yu Xiao filled out the courier form while asking, "Any news about the two attending doctors who were fired today?"
The courier girl's voice was full of respect. "There is no news about Lolita for now. Gu Shu returned to Gujia Village and had a fight with the attending doctor of Gujia Village."
Zhou Xiaozhen was very curious. "Why did they fight?"
The courier girl said, "It is said that it was related to a tree."
The big tree planted by Gu Shu was cut down by Chaoge to build a wooden house...
"Thank you." Yu Xiao asked again, "Then have you heard about the jealous smile?"
"He was fined two months' salary." The courier girl said, "I heard that he turned the Goblin Group upside down. The Goblin Group's attending doctor Fu Shen had his head hit crooked. Fu Shen asked a ghost to help him straighten his bones, but it turned out that ghost was a liar, and now his head is even more crooked."
"...Okay." Yu Xiao: "Thank you."
"Hehe..." The courier girl smiled coquettishly, "It's my honor to serve you~"
After sending away the bed that flew to someone else, the space in the ward suddenly became larger. Yu Xiao has been busy since morning and hasn't washed her face yet. She went to wash her face, and Meng Yan was ordering food at the door.
Yu Xiao usually likes to lie down in the ward when she has nothing to do. Now that Meng Yan has made the bed neatly and piled up the quilt like a tofu block, she suddenly can't bear to lie down.
Sister Lan and Xiao Zhen have the same feeling as her.
The three of them sit at the table. Meng Yan brings the food over and arranges the dishes in order with consideration and courtesy. All the dishes placed in front of Yu Xiao are Yu Xiao's favorites.
Zhou Xiaozhen called Meng Yan, "You should eat with us."
Meng Yan carefully sat down next to Yu Xiao. Zhao Lan was still immersed in the excitement of Tang Xingyin's discharge from the hospital. While eating, she asked, "What are your plans after you are discharged? Is your life plan different from before you were discharged?"
Yu Xiao's hand holding the food paused for a moment, because she was not sure whether she could be discharged.
Zhou Xiaozhen stirred the rice irritably, "Do you think it is necessary for someone like me who has experienced life and death and witnessed many storms to take the college entrance examination after being discharged from the hospital?"
Zhao Lan and Yu Xiao said in unison, "Of course it is necessary!"
"..." Zhou Xiaozhen wilted instantly, and said listlessly, "Then my plan is to take the college entrance examination."
"What about you?" Zhao Lan looked at Yu Xiao.
Yu Xiao didn't have the mood to think about her future for the moment. She asked back, "Sister Lan, you haven't talked about yourself yet."
"Of course I have to work hard and strive to become the person in charge of the China region before I turn 40," Zhao Lan said ambitiously.
"What about your personal life?" Zhou Xiaozhen asked, "Do you plan to have a boyfriend?"
"Oh." Zhao Lan smiled calmly, "It depends on the situation. It's not bad to have a relationship with someone you like."
Zhou Xiaozhen: "If the little brother you sponsored comes to you after graduation, are you willing to consider him?"
Zhao Lan: "..."
"Xiaoxiao." Zhao Lan quickly changed the subject, "What about you?"
"I..." Yu Xiao shook his head, "I haven't thought about it yet."
"You are already a junior, right?" Zhao Lan advised as a person who has experienced it, "It's time to consider this issue, otherwise you will be at a loss when you leave school. Do you have to continue to ask for living expenses from home?"
"No need." Yu Xiao didn't have the heart to worry about this at all. "My dad and mom left me a house in a good location. It has been rented out over the years, and the monthly rent is 10,000 yuan. If I spend sparingly, it will be enough."
Zhao Lan: "..."
Zhou Xiaozhen: "..."
Listening to their conversation, Meng Yan seemed to understand. No matter how similar the copy situation in the hospital is to the real world, there is still a gap. He didn't quite understand the source of the pressure on the three people. But there is one thing he understands, Yu Xiao wants to be discharged from the hospital, and she has a great chance of being discharged.
In just a few days, Yu Xiao has accumulated some problems. She really wants to see the dean again and get answers from him.
But she held back. Since she has decided to be discharged, it is best not to have any contact with him.
After dinner, Yu Xiao sat on a chair, drinking the tea brewed by Meng Yan. Holding Teng Jingzhi's mobile phone in his hand, he scrolled down to look through the address book.
There were a lot of people in the address book. Except for some people who were obviously known in the real world, the remaining names added up to more than fifty.
Yu Xiao flipped through it from top to bottom, and then started to make a call from the beginning.
"Sorry, the user you dialed is powered off..."
"Sorry, the user you dialed is powered off..."
"Sorry, the user you dialed is powered off..."
"..."
After dialing more than a dozen numbers in a row, all of them were powered off. Yu Xiao had already given up hope, but at this moment he actually dialed a number.
"Hello." It was a man's voice on the other side. The voice was normal and sounded stable.
Yu Xiao was excited and asked, "Are you Give Rose?"
"Yes, I am."
"You..." Yu Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Do you still remember this number? Do you still remember the owner of this number?"
"Of course I do." The other party said, "You haven't called me for a long time."
Yu Xiao was about to say that I am not Teng Jingzhi, but at that moment she suddenly thought of something, like a thunderbolt hitting Yu Xiao's head. She was silent for three minutes, and then said, "When did you replace Give Rose?"
"Oh." The other party was a little surprised, "You were discovered, how did you find out?"
"..."
Yu Xiao was choked for a moment, it seemed easy. People in the first hospital who have survived to this day usually don't have such a good mental state. Also, if he really knew Teng Jingzhi, how could he not know that Teng Jingzhi was a man?
Yu Xiao turned off her phone, leaned back in her chair
and closed her eyes. Zhao Lan heard what Yu Xiao said on the phone and saw her like this, and felt something was wrong. Just as he was about to ask, Yu Xiao's phone rang.
"I really want to live another five hundred years..."
Yu Xiao was startled, picked up her phone, and found that the caller ID showed that she was flying to someone else's bed.
"Hello?" Yu Xiao answered the phone, "Are you back in the ward?"
"Yes, just now." He flew to someone else's bed and said, "Meng Yan is next to you, right? He said he has a way to control dreams remotely. Tell him to hurry up. I'm already lying down."
Yu Xiao immediately handed the phone to Meng Yan, "You talk to him, you talk to him."
Meng Yan took the phone and only said one sentence to the phone, "You go to sleep."
Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Yu Xiao felt uncomfortable thinking of the phone call just now. Then she thought of one thing, can she still keep the memory of being in the hospital after being discharged? If so, what will happen to the ghosts that replaced the patients? Will
ghosts still like to eat people after they become humans?
Yu Xiao scratched her head, and she remembered another thing, Yin Qi is ghosts, and Yin Qi invading the human body is ghosts invading the human body. Anyone who has played a copy has been corroded by Yin Qi to some extent. One day, the patient accumulated enough points and was discharged from the hospital like Tang Xingyin. Then what about the Yin Qi that invaded the patient? Was it taken out together?
Yu Xiao originally thought that she had no curiosity, but now she suddenly found that she was very curious.
She took advantage of Sister Lan and Xiao Zhen not paying attention and sent a text message to the director.
"I want to see you."
After sending the message, she couldn't help but slap her thigh. She used the wrong phone. This was Teng Jingzhi's phone!
Zhao Lan looked at her strangely, "What's wrong?"
"Ah... nothing." Yu Xiao: "My leg... has a little cramp."
Meng Yan returned the phone to Yu Xiao, "Okay."
The black dragon just now extinguished the impulse in Yu Xiao's heart. She thought to herself that she should bear it a little longer. If one day she really couldn't bear it anymore, she would find the director again.
Just as he was thinking this, Wangcai's familiar voice came from outside the door, "Descendant of the Deaf, you are suspected of molesting the director, come with me."
Yu Xiao: "..."
Zhao Lan: "?"
Zhou Xiaozhen: "!"
Meng Yan's expression became serious, and Yu Xiao slammed the table, "You fart!"
Zhao Lan knew that Yu Xiao was brave, but she believed that Yu Xiao knew her limits and would not do something like molesting the director. So she asked, "Is there any misunderstanding?"
Meng Yan said aggrievedly, "You are a living person. If you run away, you will be easily caught. Even I may not be able to hide you..."
Yu Xiao thought to herself that this was totally unrelated. She stood up and said, "Don't worry. The hospital is a place where reason prevails. No one will be wronged."
"Who said that?" Zhou Xiaozhen said, "How many times have the attending doctors been wronged?"
"I'll be back soon." Yu Xiao walked to the door and emphasized, "Trust me."
After that, she opened the door, and the three-headed dog was waiting outside. Yu Xiao walked out and closed the door with ease, whispering: "How can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air?"
The three-headed dog rolled his eyes six times, "You said that the meeting with the director should be kept secret from your friends."
Yu Xiao: "That can't be used as an excuse."
"I know." The three-headed dog said: "It's really troublesome."
They walked the same way as last time. After getting on the ferry, Yu Xiao said: "Why don't I give this river a name?" The
three-headed dog ignored her. Yu Xiao said: "How about calling it Stinky Water Ditch?"
The three-headed dog suddenly felt a little desperate. What if she really became the director in the future? Does it really want to be the dog of such a family?
It can't be thought of, it's despairing to think about it.
The director's house is still the same as before, without any changes, and the director is also the same as before. But he changed his clothes. He was no longer wearing a shirt, but a black nightgown embroidered with blue roses.
"Would you like some tea?" the director asked.
"Drink." This was not the first time she came here, and Yu Xiao was not as nervous as the first time. She asked, "Does the director need to sleep too?"
"No." The director held the teacup in his left hand, pushed his glasses with his right middle finger, and said, "I will look more friendly if I dress like this."
"..."
Yu Xiao was speechless. The director put the teacup in front of Yu Xiao, sat down, crossed his hands on the table, and said with a smile, "I'm very happy that you took the initiative to ask to see me."
Yu Xiao said vigilantly, "I'm not here to agree to your request."
"I know." The director said, "Such an important decision must be made with caution, but the fact that you took the initiative to see me says a lot in itself."
Yu Xiao had a cold face. She decided not to argue anymore, but asked directly, "Will the patient retain the memory of the hospital after being discharged?"
"No," said the director.
Yu Xiao thought to herself, "As expected, then...what about those ghosts that replaced the patients?"
"Them..." The director crossed his legs and said, "You have to know that memories do not only exist in the soul, the body will also retain some memories."
Yu Xiao couldn't help scratching his head, "You mean, the ghost that replaced the patient has no memories of its own after being discharged from the hospital, and only has the patient's memories, then...who is the living one, the patient or the ghost?"
"Does it matter?" The director didn't understand Yu Xiao's excitement, "For ghosts, all they want is life. It doesn't matter whose memories they have. As for the patient, he's already dead. Who would care?"
Yu Xiao was so shocked that she couldn't speak. Then she suddenly figured out something, "So those negative energies that invaded the human body...also followed the discharged patients..."
"Yes." The director was a little surprised and asked, "Do you think that countless dead people created the hospital just for the few replacements?"
Yu Xiao understood that ghosts replacing patients and leaving the hospital were only a few cases. In more cases, ghosts invaded patients and finally followed them to the real world.
No wonder the hospital has so many rules and regulations to protect patients, because patients and ghosts are not opposites.
Yu Xiao figured out a lot of problems in an instant. She asked: "Is it really okay for ghosts to leave the hospital with patients?"
"I don't know." The director shook his head and said: "After all, I have never seen the world of the living."
Yu Xiao: "You let me be the director, then how do you plan to leave the hospital? Replace my identity?"
The director thought about it seriously, and then said: "It's not impossible. Is it interesting to be a woman? Compared to being a man, which one is more interesting?"
Yu Xiao: "...Aren't you a man?"
"Of course not." The director: "I'm not a human."
"My container is a man." The director looked Yu Xiao up and down, "Although your body is not gorgeous enough, it's also very interesting."
