Chapter 278 Bad Luck x2(1/2)
A lively, moving mass of black mud.
Speaking of which... the black-haired young man narrowed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
The black sludge that seems to have never attacked anyone will only run away when it encounters so many eyes. What was in the small bottle Qiao Jiang gave him last time was... After thinking about it, Bai Su felt that it was difficult to judge.
To make a judgment, we must first clarify whether Qiao Jiang at that point in time was recognized as a human being by the mud or by some other entity... Forget it, it's not very important anymore.
Everything you eat has been eaten by yourself, there is no need to compare.
Bai Su lowered his eyes and watched as the humans gathered around him in an orderly manner. He used his back-up moves, tossed and turned, and finally covered the mud with an opaque jar.
A lot of scraps of various materials were scattered nearby, either damaged by the mud or their containment had been breached.
When humans finally removed the remaining sludge, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Then Xia Chengyin, who should be the commander-in-chief, waved his hand and after a few instructions, the people in the crowded corridor finally dispersed.
One wave of people brought transport vehicles, lifted up the mountain of silver spikes that had completely solidified on the ground and could be compared to some kind of artwork, and pushed them away. Another wave of people brought items such as seals and moved the opaque jars.
After sealing it tightly, it was carefully sent away.
Ten minutes later, only Xia Chengyin and Bai Su, who was not a member of the team directly under today's operation, were left in the corridor.
The former had a lot to say, and he moved his mouth a few times, but what he finally said was: "If possible, don't shoot next time."
"Huh?"
"I checked the eye monitor before I came up." Xia Chengyin watched the whole process. I can't say that his aim was accurate. I can only say that he was gifted.
The posture is perfect, it can be said to be a textbook standard, but judging from the results, it just missed hitting one of our own people.
"Ah." Bai Su shrugged, "I saw that one was looking forward to it, so he deliberately moved the muzzle away."
The short-haired police officer glanced at him without comment.
The medical staff gradually came back after the crisis warning was lifted. An older nurse came over and asked Xia Chengyin how to deal with the patients in the nearby ward.
"... Let's wait until daytime." The short-haired police officer rubbed his temples, "The view is not good at night, and it is too troublesome to move around. We will let you know tomorrow for details."
The older nurse said yes.
Before she left, she glanced at Bai Su, probably wondering why she hadn't seen this black-haired young man before.
What Bai Su is facing now is a ward door, which is no different from the ones downstairs. If there is anything special about it, the wall looks like golden lines drawn on it have penetrated through the gap between the door and the wall.<
/p>
The nurse and doctor hurriedly walked in, and after a long examination, they came out and shook their heads.
"I didn't wake up, the situation is the same as before."
"Well, you guys go and have a rest first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."
After the wave of medical staff left, the corridor returned to calm.
Seeing no one around, the short-haired police officer ignored the no-smoking sign posted nearby and took out a cigarette.
After lighting the fire and exhaling a long breath, the human policeman stood at the window to let the smoke drift out so as not to trigger the smoke alarm.
Tonight's roundup of the doppelgangers is not a thrilling one, because only one appears, but there are so many victims. If they appear in large numbers in the future, it will be troublesome to deal with them.
And...if it was not discovered in advance.
The short-haired police officer withdrew his gaze from the moonlight outside the window and returned it to the black-haired young man. The latter felt that someone was looking at him and turned his head.
What does the world look like in Bai Su’s eyes?
This thought came up more than once. After detecting the implanted broken branch of the wooden Buddha in Bai Su's head, he had a question, what has become of the world in the other person's eyes?
The human policeman took a puff of cigarette, and this time he asked out his curiosity.
"Huh?" The black-haired young man made a suspicious nasal sound, "Officer Xia wants to ask me what I see now?"
Just as he was about to say that Bai Su had misunderstood, the black-haired young man turned back and looked at the ward door, pondering for a moment.
"Are there golden lines crawling into the door? There are also some words between the lines. They are too blurry for me to see clearly."
After hearing Bai Su's answer, Xia Chengyin turned to look at the empty ward door and wall, and slowly made a series of ellipses in his heart.
He may know what Bai Su is describing.
In order to prevent the attack of the doppelgangers, of course they reinforced and protected the patients where the relevant patients lived. What Bai Su described is the preparation they made.
It's just that normally those lines will not be seen by others except when they are activated.
I vaguely felt something was wrong, but Bai Su had already moved on to the next topic.
"By the way, Officer Xia, can I go in and have a look?" Bai Su pointed to the closed door of the ward, "There's someone I know inside."
Xia Chengyin heard about it and heard that the man inside still fell in front of Baisu's house.
He couldn't remember exactly what happened, and he couldn't remember it if it wasn't the focus of the case.
The short-haired policeman waved his hand holding a cigarette, signaling people to come in.
The black-haired young man nodded to the person, stepped forward and opened the door.
Considering the distance of the relationship, Bai Su didn't show any worry or worry. He stepped on the golden lines like a magic circle and walked to the bedside.
The human young man on the hospital bed slept peacefully, probably because he had forgotten all his memories, and there was no painful emotion on his face.
At most, I may occasionally become short of breath due to elevated body temperature, but the rest of the time it is stable.
So calm that I don’t know what happened tonight, and I won’t know when I wake up tomorrow.
If no one stops him, he may be like the round-faced boy, smuggled out by the supernatural in a quiet hospital in the dead of night, and then wait for death in a deserted street.
If you are lucky, the special department will collect his previous whereabouts, find the way in the streets and alleys, and then borrow Bai Su himself... Oh, I don't think you need to borrow it. I heard that the special department thinks that the accuracy of the Taoist compass is also good.
Borrowing a compass is more convenient than borrowing Baisu himself.
Anyway, if you are lucky, you can be moved back.
Bai Su used the word "mo" correctly. He didn't even have his own consciousness, so couldn't he just use the word "mo"?
The black-haired young man lowered his head and looked at the person. Perhaps by chance, the patient who was sleeping peacefully suddenly opened his eyes.
It's like waking up from a dream, but if you ask him what he dreamed about, humans can't answer.
The unfocused eyes were open aimlessly. The man on the hospital bed seemed to be able to only respond to changes in light and shadow. When Bai Su moved around, he turned his head slightly.
The range of turning the head is limited to leaning from the left to the right, and then from the right to the left.
After walking back and forth twice, Bai Su, who felt that it was not interesting, stopped and leaned towards the person on the bed.
He brought his face closer, but the other party didn't react at all. He just stared blankly ahead, his breathing rising and falling slightly.
This looks...a vegetative state? Maybe it moves a little more than a vegetative state.
"Xiao Jiang?" Bai Su called softly, but the human didn't respond.
Seeing that the person showed no intention of falling asleep in a short period of time, Bai Su pressed the button on the wall beside the bed. As the red light turned on, the people in the hospital also received the message.
Xia Chengyin, who had not left, was the one who arrived before the medical staff who had just left. The short-haired policeman stubbed out his cigarette and used his fist to destroy the traces of the corpse, then quickly pushed the door open and entered.
"What's wrong?" Xia Chengyin walked in and looked around, but found nothing unusual. He slowly lowered his guarded fist, "Why did you wake up?"
The short-haired police officer looked around and saw only the man lying on the hospital bed with his eyes open and staring at the ceiling.
At most, at most, after he blocked the light after entering the door, his head tilted toward him.
Bai Su spread his hands and expressed what he didn't know.
Doctors who hadn't even covered their butts with their stools poured into the ward again, and they started working again in front of the community worker Xiao Jiang who woke up.
During the work, they invited two irrelevant personnel out.
Unrelated Person No. 1:... Let’s smoke another cigarette.
Unrelated Person No. 2: Of course, but, the ward is so big, wouldn’t it be okay to have a few more people?
The little nurse who was chasing people put her hands on her waist: "What are you talking about with the smell of cigarette smoke? Get away quickly, I don't even care that you are smoking in a no-smoking area!"
Unrelated person No. 1, who was smoking, walked away dejectedly, moving one meter away.
The uninvolved person No. 2 also moved a few steps and stood closer than Xia Chengyin.
After saying that, the little nurse turned around and went in. After a long time, she took a box of things out of the ward. When passing by Baisu this time, she suddenly stopped.
"You..." the little nurse opened her eyes wide, "do you come to this hospital often? I feel like I have seen you several times."
Unlike the unrelated person No. 1, who was smoking nearby because of work contacts, the young nurse's impression of this fair face belonging to a black-haired young man... seemed to have first appeared as a patient.
And more than once, the black-haired young man as a patient was admitted to the hospital several times.
Later, the other party came as a visitor.
A while ago, when the hospital was still admitting ordinary patients, I saw this black-haired young man coming.
They probably completed the status transformation from outsiders to employees of special departments. To put it simply, they were recruited.
The little nurse thought for a moment and said, "The people you visited before have not been discharged from the hospital yet. If you want to see them, please go during the day."
Bai Su nodded and asked doubtfully: "How many are there?"
"That's right." The little nurse agreed, "One on the third floor, one on the fifth floor... these are the two people I remember."
To be continued...
