Chapter 180
The hospital was not very quiet at night to begin with, and near dawn, the noise even echoed throughout the fourth floor of the inpatient department.
The unusual movement spread rapidly.
Su Xingyuan opened his eyes on the bed, but without moving, he reached out and peeled an apple for himself. Then, there was an urgent knock on the door and the blinding light of a flashlight flashed outside the door.
"Please open the door, help! Please open the door, please!"
"There's a lunatic outside!!"
A panicked and hoarse voice came from outside the door, with a hint of crying. It was obvious that the person was close to emotional collapse. Judging from the heavy and light footsteps as he walked over, he should be a patient with unsteady legs and feet.
Su Xingyuan tilted his head slightly and suddenly wondered, if the people outside the door knew how he was now regarded by the police officers, would they still be so eager to enter the closed ward where he was.
He walked to the door and opened it directly.
The man who was knocking on the door in despair didn't expect that the person inside would open the door so easily. He didn't even ask what happened. He was stunned for a second and even forgot to say "help" in his mouth.
Under the pale light of the flashlight, the dark-haired boy, who was still neatly dressed even though it was late at night, had a momentary reflection of his green irises, revealing a mechanical white without any emotion.
When being stared at by the cold white with a hint of green, the man even forgot for a moment the danger behind him that he was originally afraid of, and the sweat that had been sweating all over his head and body instantly cooled down.
"gentlemen?"
The black-haired boy tilted his head slightly and said with a smile, "Aren't you coming in?"
man:"……"
It's even more terrifying to be so happy to invite someone in!
Although he experienced a fierce struggle in his heart for a short time, the more substantial threat behind him overcame the inexplicable fear of the black-haired boy. He gritted his teeth, flashed into the ward, and quickly closed the door. He even felt that it was not enough, so he dragged the idle bed at the side and pressed it against the door of the ward.
"What happened outside?" Su Xingyuan poured himself a glass of water and then sat down slowly, his movements and expression as if saying, "Let me listen to what story this lunatic from outside wants to tell."
When the man saw him like this, he choked again.
"Look at the chaos outside. Aren't you in any hurry? There are lunatics outside killing people indiscriminately! Many doctors and nurses have been scratched and bitten!"
"Security guards came over, but they were too strong to stop me. There was blood all over the floor... I ran into them when I went to the toilet. Luckily I ran fast and no one opened the door for me along the way..."
The man shuddered. “Let’s get some more stuff to block the door. I doubt they can force it down! This is just like a zombie outbreak in a doomsday movie!”
Su Xingyuan was silent for a moment: "..."
The man suddenly felt something was wrong: "...Why don't you speak?"
The black-haired boy took a sip of water, organized his words, and said in a friendly tone: "I think that the possibility of a zombie outbreak is not 100%, but it is definitely not zero."
Man: "... Doesn't this imply that there are really zombies outside?"
"No, the farce will soon be over." The black-haired boy said with some regret, and then changed the subject, his voice became lighter: "But it seems... those guys who attacked indiscriminately you mentioned didn't hurt people indiscriminately."
...What does this mean?
What does it mean to not hurt people indiscriminately?
The man asked warily: "…Why are you saying this? What do you know?"
He carefully looked at the black-haired patient who seemed to be a little abnormal from the beginning until now. In a single room, without a hospital gown, and still dressed neatly in the middle of the night... The situation was urgent just now, so he didn't pay much attention. Only now did he notice that the other person's robe looked wrong - or rather, it didn't look like the style that you would see people wearing in daily life.
And those emerald eyes looked like they were wearing cosmetic contact lenses, the inorganic green color was somewhat creepy. There were no signs of IV bottles or medicines in the room, the trash can was empty, and the only evidence of someone's presence were a few apples on the bedside cabinet.
Cold sweat began to break out on the man's back again. He wouldn't escape from the tiger's den and fall into the wolf's lair, would he? From the looks of it, this guy might even be the mastermind behind the chaos outside? Life doesn’t have to be so exciting and bloody!
"Please don't misunderstand me. I didn't mean anything else." The black-haired boy spread his hands and pointed at his ears. "I just heard some noises."
"For example, there are a lot of footsteps that seem to be heading towards us with a clear purpose."
The man listened carefully and indeed heard the noise getting closer and closer. As it got closer, the chaotic footsteps were simply impossible to ignore.
His face turned pale in an instant, and he trembled as he murmured, "Come to find me...? Impossible, why? I didn't do anything!! Who did I offend?!"
Before he could finish his words, there was a loud "bang" outside the door, as if something had hit the door directly.
The man fell silent instantly, looking at the not-so-strong door in fear.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!!”
The sound of banging on the door became louder and more frequent, and the door began to deform visibly.
"How long will it take for the police to arrive?!" The man's voice changed with fear.
"From the looks of it, you might be dead by the time they get here." Su Xingyuan consoled him, "How about having an apple?"
The man broke into a voice: "At this time, you still have the heart to eat apples?"
The black-haired boy showed a matter-of-fact expression: "What else? There are no bananas or pears here either."
Man: “…” The people living on this floor are actually the real mentally ill ones! !
He stopped this meaningless conversation, drew aside the curtains and looked out - the anti-theft windows were stacked on four floors, blocking all possibilities of his escape.
He finally realized his current situation. He turned his back to the door, faced the window, took out his cell phone with trembling hands, and began to edit his last words.
With a "clang", it seemed that the entire door was completely destroyed, and the sound of the door panel hitting other hard objects was so obvious that it was despairing. He didn't dare to look back, just like an elementary school student who doesn't dare to look at the needle when getting an injection, trying to cover up the truth, and quickened the pace of editing his will.
One minute passed, then two minutes passed.
The man's typing hands gradually hesitated.
...Didn’t they break into the house? Why was there no movement after that noise?
Finally, the curiosity that made his heart tingle overwhelmed his fear. He swallowed and turned his head carefully.
Then, his eyes met with the black-haired boy who had been standing next to him for who knows how long, silently accompanying him as he finished editing his tearful will.
Black-haired boy: ^^
Man: “…Aaaaaaaaaah!!”
He sat down on the ground with a plop, and his cell phone almost flew out of his hand in shock. Even after he realized that there was a person standing next to him, he still broke out in a cold sweat.
When did this guy walk up to me... There was no sound at all, is he a ghost? !
Also... when someone is desperately writing a suicide note, coming over to watch and have fun, does this person really have any morals at all? !
The man turned around in great anger, and after seeing a group of people lying at the door, he calmed down instantly.
Yes, these patients who had been hurting people everywhere for no apparent reason had clearly just rushed in, but now they all suddenly fell down less than a meter away from the door... He hadn't even heard the slightest sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
It was almost like... they just laid down on their own.
Thinking of this scene, his heart suddenly began to beat again. An inexplicable premonition made him slowly turn his head and look at the other person in the room.
He didn't see the other person's expression clearly.
The hospital's security guards and guards had already rushed over, but the other party had his back to him and said confidently, "I told them they came in lying down."
Man: “…” Suddenly I felt that there was no point in asking, so forget it.
Although there were still many things he didn't understand, he finally relaxed at this moment. Just when he was about to tell the nurse that he was going to be discharged directly, as he didn't dare to stay in this place any longer, he heard the black-haired boy, who was inexplicably being watched by the medical staff and guards, say in a brisk voice:
"By the way, Yu Fu."
The young man with beautiful green irises tilted his head slightly and raised his index finger: "I see you have amazing bones..."
"...Mr. Su Xingyuan!"
The medical staff who seemed to know the black-haired boy seemed to have anticipated what he wanted to say, and said with a headache: "Please don't spread feudal superstition!"
The man stopped and asked slowly and obsessively: "Then how can I find you?"
Su Xingyuan: "Looks like, the bureau."
man:"……???"
The man looked on in confusion as the black-haired boy was taken away by a group of serious-looking people, and the people who had fainted on the ground were also cleared away. Someone carefully asked him about the details of his relationship with Su Xingyuan, and only then did he realize that he had not told the other person his name.
He tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep, his mind in a mess. But on the next afternoon, he successfully met Su Xingyuan again, having learned that he had been described as "amazing by his appearance".
In the police station.
Yu Fu: “…”
To some extent, the black-haired boy's judgment of himself was indeed quite accurate.
He saw the police officer in charge of asking questions and asked seriously: "Are you saying that they came in lying down?"
Su Xingyuan: “Yes.”
Officer: "But we looked at the surveillance video and found that they were very active and showed strong aggressiveness before entering the house."
Su Xingyuan: "It's three in the morning, I understand you're sleepy."
Yu Fu: “…”
He slowly covered his eyes with his hands.
Even if this guy is lying with his eyes open, can't he at least be more careful? ?
Who would believe that he is innocent?
But... Yu Fu actually felt vaguely that he was the one who brought those people here. It was this doubt that kept him awake all night.
They didn't seem to have any obsession with other people, but after meeting him, they chased him directly into Su Xingyuan's ward and broke the door open. Yu Fu began to doubt whether he looked so easy to deal with that they kept chasing him up and down the stairs.
From this perspective, maybe the black-haired boy is really just an innocent person who is not very smart?
Obviously the bureau had learned of this fact from the surveillance footage, which is why they called him over.
"In addition to Su Xingyuan, Ruan Tiexin is also a major suspect."
Meanwhile, Officer Liu, who had just sent Su Xingyuan to the hospital and ended up being in trouble again, took a sip of tea with a vicissitudes of life in his eyes: "She specifically asked to see those two people... This is too weird. From the surveillance footage, we can see that at 2:20, they were the first to go crazy."
In the end, all these people gathered at the gate of Suxingyuan... Was this a coincidence, or some kind of inevitability that they didn't know about?
"What about Yu Fu?" The colleague frowned and said, "His resume is also very clean. How come he was suddenly dragged into such a weird thing today?"
Although it was announced that someone might have poisoned some patients, causing them to become mentally ill, in fact, except for the first two people, no traces of drugs were found in the bodies of others. After they woke up, they even said that they knew nothing about what had happened during that time. They only remembered that they met a madman and then lost consciousness.
"Maybe there is a secret group planning something and selecting suitable members? Yu Fu just happens to meet the criteria?" another young police officer said hesitantly.
"Alright." The team leader knocked on the table and ended the discussion. "We can't guess anything here. Let's go to the scene again. Otherwise, we won't have any evidence. We still have to release Su Xingyuan, Ruan Tiexin, Yu Fu and the others, regardless of whether they pose a threat or not."
By then, no one knows whether this panic-stricken incident will happen again.
