Chapter 204: Uncovering the Secret of the Old Hospital 46
As night falls, a dilapidated hospital looms in the darkness. Abandoned for years, it shrouds itself in mystery. It's said to hold a startling secret, drawing countless explorers to uncover the mystery.
One day, a brave young man named Xiao Li, driven by curiosity, entered the old hospital. He crossed the overgrown courtyard, pushed open the creaking gate, and walked into the hospital. A chilling air greeted him, sending a chill through Xiao Li.
He walked cautiously along the dilapidated corridor. The peeling paint on the walls and the broken tiles on the floor all spoke of the hospital's former glory. Suddenly, he heard a strange sound, as if someone was whispering in his ear. Xiao Li looked around nervously, but saw no one.
He continued walking until he reached the door of a hospital ward. The door was ajar. Xiao Li pushed it open and found the room in a complete mess. The bed was dishevelled, and the photos on the nightstand had fallen to the floor. The people in the photos wore expressions of pain, their eyes filled with fear.
Xiao Li found everything here eerie, but he wasn't intimidated. He decided to continue his exploration, seeking the hospital's hidden secrets. He arrived in the hospital's basement and found a locked iron door. Hanging from the door was an ancient key, and on the keychain was a sign that read, "No Trespassing."
Xiao Li took the key without hesitation and opened the iron door. Behind the door was a dark passage. A dim light on the wall at the end of the passage illuminated the path ahead. Xiao Li followed the light and came to a room. There was a table and a notebook in the room.
He picked up the notebook and discovered it was a doctor's diary. It contained a record of a mysterious incident that had occurred at the hospital. It turned out to be a serious medical malpractice that had resulted in the deaths of many patients. The doctor revealed in the diary that he knew the truth, but was silenced by hospital management.
Xiao Li realized that the secret hidden in this hospital was the medical accident. He decided to continue investigating and seek justice for the patients who died. In the subsequent investigation, he found more evidence that confirmed that this hospital did have serious medical problems.
Eventually, Xiao Li made all of this evidence public, which garnered widespread attention. The hospital was closed, and those responsible were held accountable. Xiao Li was proud of his bravery and righteousness, and he also achieved justice for the patients who died.
Chapter 205: The truth about the ghost in the old hospital
Xiao Li's investigation attracted the attention of local media, and a TV station decided to send a special reporting team to delve into the secrets behind the old hospital. The team was led by veteran reporter Zhang Ming, and Xiao Li also participated as an investigative consultant.
They began by thoroughly researching the hospital's history. Built in the 1930s, it was once one of the city's most advanced medical institutions. However, in the 1980s, it abruptly closed, and all staff and patients mysteriously disappeared. Since then, the hospital has been plagued by strange legends and remains an unsolved mystery.
Zhang Ming and Xiao Li interviewed some residents near the hospital, who recalled some strange incidents from the past. Some said they heard crying and screaming from the hospital at night, while others said they saw "ghosts" wearing old hospital uniforms wandering around the area.
During their investigation, they discovered old photos and documents from the past that seemed to hint at the truth behind the hospital's closure. One photo showed the hospital's director and a group of doctors standing in front of a mysterious laboratory, their expressions serious. A document mentioned a secret project codenamed "Project X."
Xiao Li and Zhang Ming decided to dig deeper into this "Project X." They found a former hospital employee who recalled that Project X was a medical experiment aimed at developing a drug that could cure all diseases. However, this project ultimately led to tragedy.
Their investigation led them to a doctor who had previously worked on Project X. The doctor revealed the truth about the project. It turned out that Project X had achieved some results, but the experiments had also had unforeseen side effects. These side effects had caused some patients to develop severe physical and mental disorders.
When the hospital's leadership learned of the incident, they decided to conceal the truth and locked away all those who knew about it, including the patients. They attempted to destroy all evidence, but ultimately failed. Some patients escaped the hospital's control and spread the news, causing the hospital's reputation to plummet. Ultimately, the hospital had to close.
Zhang Ming and Xiao Li's public disclosure of these facts garnered widespread public attention. Relevant departments launched an investigation and decided to hold those responsible accountable. They also used this historical event as a case study in medical ethics education, hoping that doctors and medical institutions would learn from it and pay greater attention to the rights and safety of patients.
The secret behind the old hospital was finally revealed. Those so-called "ghosts" were actually the souls of the victims who lost their lives due to the hospital's misconduct. Their grievances and pain finally received a little comfort.
Xiao Li and Zhang Ming's investigative report won the annual Best News Award, and their courage and sense of justice inspired more people to pay attention to and expose social injustice. The old hospital was also designated a cultural heritage site, becoming a reminder to cherish medical ethics and patient rights.
The ending of the story doesn't completely clear up all the mysteries, but at least some justice was done to those who suffered in the old hospital, and the courage and determination of Xiao Li and Zhang Ming have become a legend passed down through the city.
