Chapter 22
"What did you say? That's the old monk who raised you? You said the evil ghost here was sealed by him?" Zhao Yu asked three questions in a row.
"Yes" Han Zhen simply answered with one word, not knowing which question he was answering.
"Then what are you doing here tonight? Do you have any way to deal with the ghost inside?"
"I don't know. I plan to go in and explore the reality of that thing. It's best to rescue those guys who are seeking death."
"You said those people are still here? It's impossible. We searched for three days and this place was turned upside down. If there are still five living people hiding, we must have found them long ago."
Han Zhen pointed to the dark door of the hospital building in front of him, looked back at Zhao Yu, and asked: "Come on, Officer Zhao, repeat what I just told you, what is this thing inside?"
"Isn't this the evil ghost sealed by your master?" Zhao Yu asked in confusion.
"Then in broad daylight, you, some 20 young and vigorous young men, who are all yamenmen servants, formed a group to come here to look for ghosts. Do you want to come out if you are a ghost?"
Zhao Yu suddenly realized: "Is that why you came here in the middle of the night?"
"Oh, it's so tiring to talk to a layman!" Han Zhen sighed, and then added: "So Officer Zhao, I have to do serious things soon. Can you, a layman, stop getting involved?"
Zhao Yu retorted: "That's not okay. Since we are going in to find missing people, it is our police's duty, and I have to go too."
Although these words were categorical, Zhao Yu still felt a little guilty. After all, the person he had to deal with this time was a ghost. The head-dropping master last time was at least a living person with an entity. Ghosts don't know what their own guns are.
no effect.
"Okay, then just follow and be careful when you go in."
Zhao Yu was actually frightened. He thought that Han Zhen would definitely have to persuade him, and he would borrow Poxiadonkey and say that he was at the door ready to provide support.
But what Han Zhen wanted to do was to deal with the Jiangtou master last time. He also persuaded Zhao Yu not to follow him, but he didn't persuade him, so he wouldn't waste his words this time.
After hearing Han Zhen's words, Zhao Yu had a constipated expression on his face and thought to himself, "Don't you have to go against me in everything? Why are you so easy to talk to this time?"
After thinking about it, he asked again.
"Then, then I will really go in with you?"
"Go in." Han Zhen thought, I can't persuade you anyway.
"Okay, just one piece then." Zhao Yu said through gritted teeth.
Without further ado, the two of them walked toward the dark door of the main building.
Han Zhen took the lead and walked in front. It was not seen that he had any lighting equipment. Zhao Yu followed behind him and took out a strong lighting flashlight. A dazzling light beam came from it, forming a straight light path in front of the two people.
After walking a few more steps, the two finally arrived in front of the main entrance. Through the light of the flashlight, they could see the accumulation of debris on the floor in the lobby on the first floor. Occasionally there were broken glass shards in the corners, reflecting the flashlight's light and shaking.
In the center of the hall, a few rows of metal seats prepared for registered and waiting patients were dismantled by someone unknown and were lying on the ground in a mess.
Near the left corner of the hall is the stairway, and above the stairs is a deep darkness.
At the gate, Zhao Yu raised his head and glanced at the dilapidated building, feeling that it was more gloomy than during the day.
It was countless times terrifying, and it even felt like the temperature around me was dropping rapidly.
Zhao Yu glanced at Han Zhen, who was walking in front, and saw that there was nothing strange about him. He was too embarrassed to back down at this juncture, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow him into the house.
After the two entered the door, Han Zhen looked around and found a map of the hospital posted on the wall on the left near the corridor. He gestured to Zhao Yu and walked over to check the map.
Zhao Yu didn't ask Han Zhen whether he needed lighting. He had seen Han Zhen's night vision ability before.
Seeing Han Zhen walking to a corner of the hall to look at the map, he took a flashlight and searched around the hall to see if he could find any clues that he hadn't noticed during the day.
Zhao Yu shone the flashlight along the hall wall and found nothing. He then randomly shone the flashlight on the debris on the ground, but found nothing unusual.
Just when Zhao Yu was about to take a look at the map, the light of the flashlight swept across the ground, and Zhao Yu keenly felt something was wrong.
This feeling of something wrong was strange and there was no obvious problem, but Zhao Yu's intuition from many years as a criminal police officer told him that something was amiss.
He hurriedly squatted down and kept the flashlight level with the floor, so that he could illuminate as much area on the floor as possible.
Zhao Yu carefully looked at the area illuminated by the surrounding lights, the messy debris, the seat cushions scattered on the floor, the broken flower pots, the empty mineral water bottles, the scattered newspapers, the thick layer of soil on the floor, and
Some footprints that were obviously recently stepped on...
Wait! Footprints!
There was something wrong with this footprint, and Zhao Yu was shocked.
It stands to reason that more than 10 police officers have passed through this hall every day in the past few days. The number of footprints on the ground is wrong. There are a lot less. It seems that there are only four or five people's footprints.
This discovery shocked Zhao Yu. He didn't have time to think about it and quickly stood up and shouted to Han Zhen: "Han Zhen, something is wrong."
But the next moment, something even more shocking happened to him. Han Zhen, who had just been standing in the corner of the hall looking at the map carefully, suddenly disappeared.
…
In the lobby on the first floor, Han Zhen glanced briefly at the map hanging on the wall. Since it had been posted here for who knows how many years, the drawings had dried and faded. In addition, there was a layer of dust on it, so the information on the map was only
I can see a lot of them.
The first floor is the registration office and waiting area, the second floor is the emergency room and operating room, the third floor is the expert clinics of various departments and some rooms for routine physical examinations, and the fourth floor is the office area.
Then there is the underground structure. The first floor below is for storage and parking. The label on the second floor below is hard to see clearly, but I guess I know what the underground of most hospitals is used for.
If something goes wrong in a place like a hospital, it's either the operating room or the morgue. Should we go to the second floor first, or should we go underground first?
While Han Zhen was thinking about it, he turned around and prepared to call Zhao Yu.
But when he turned around, Han Zhen was stunned. The hall on the first floor of the hospital was empty, and Zhao Yu had disappeared.
"Well, I just said that something was wrong from the beginning. It turned out that the light of the flashlight was missing. Officer Zhao, you are a good policeman, and the people will remember you."
Han Zhen said to himself, but if Zhao Yu heard what he said, he would be so angry that he would draw his gun. If you don't even try to find me, you will directly sentence me to death.
Let's go underground first, Han Zhen decided. After all, places like morgues have always been a dark place.
The most angry person is the most likely to have a problem here.
He is not in a hurry to find Zhao Yu. It's not that he doesn't care about Zhao Yu's life or death, but he feels that under such circumstances, the probability of encountering a ghost while wandering around the hospital is greater than the probability of finding Zhao Yu.
Once he finds the ghost and solves it, Zhao Yu will naturally be safe. If he can't solve it...well, it would be great to burn some paper for Officer Zhao next year.
The elevator must not be working. Using the information on the map, Han Zhen found the dark corridor entrance extending underground in the southeast corner of the first floor of the hospital.
Although there was no flashlight lighting, everything around him was still clearly visible in Han Zhen's eyes.
Without stopping, Han Zhen hummed a tune happily and walked underground along the dark winding corridor.
A stainless steel iron door at the exit of the second-floor hallway blocked Han Zhen's way. I don't know who was so careless as to lock the iron door of the underground morgue when the hospital moved out.
Han Zhen's anger sank into his dantian. He used his left leg as a shaft to support him, and his right foot suddenly exerted force. The joint of the iron door broke with a kick, and the stainless steel iron door that was as tall as a person fell backwards.
This loud noise reverberated throughout the hospital building for a long time before it stopped. If a passerby had experienced this, I'm afraid this hospital's supernatural rumors would have to be added to.
The iron gate fell to the ground, and the dust accumulated on the ground for many years was floating in the air.
Han Zhen covered his mouth and nose and waited for the dust to fall to the ground, then took a deep breath and walked into the morgue.
As soon as he entered, Han Zhen frowned. Then, he quickly searched around the small morgue.
"Isn't this too clean? No yin energy at all?" Han Zhen asked strangely.
Turning his eyes to look around again, Han Zhen found that most of the cold storage rooms for storing corpses against the wall were open, and all of them were empty without exception.
But this is normal. It is impossible to move a hospital and leave a few corpses unattended.
Some cabinets for storing files in the house were also empty. In the middle of the two iron beds used to store the bodies, there were still stacks of white cloths used to cover the bodies.
After exploring around, Han Zhen was sure that there was nothing unusual here, so he didn't stay here any longer, turned around and followed the stairs back to the lobby on the first floor.
But when Han Zhen returned to the hall, the scene here made him stunned.
I saw that the dilapidated, dark and dark hospital hall was now brightly lit. Several doctors in white coats and a few patients who seemed to be here to register were walking through the hall.
The entire first floor no longer looks dilapidated just now. It has beautifully decorated wallpapers, rows of neat and clean seats, and there are several flower pots with green plants placed around the hall. There are even cleaning workers cleaning it spotlessly.
of ground.
Han Zhen looked at the scene in front of him in surprise, closed his eyes, raised his left hand and pinched the bridge of his nose.
Then Han Zhen lowered his left hand and opened his eyes again. At this time, there was a faint green-gold light in his eyes.
This is one of the secret Buddhist techniques taught to him by his master: Breaking the Illusion Eye.
Under the gaze of these eyes that could see through all illusions, everything in the hall... remained unchanged.
It was still brightly lit and spotless as before, and several doctors walked through the hall and walked upstairs together.
