Chapter 45… A Day in the Safe Hospital (4)

Night, archive room.

The hands of the clock hanging on the wall were already pointing at ten o’clock.

“I actually searched here before, but I didn’t find any useful information.” The red-haired girl said while flipping through the medical records.

Starscream shook her head: “Sister, your examination is too rough. All the cases in Ping An Hospital are here. Although they are very common, the history of the hospital itself is worth studying.”

According to the records, Ping An Hospital was established 30 years ago, it was originally a private mental hospital and has long taken in homeless people with mental illnesses. It has done many charities and won a lot of awards.

At this time, in the archives, a lot of pennants were sent by patients after they recovered.

But just ten years ago, the Ping An Hospital was rebuilt and changed from an exclusive hospital for mental patients to an ordinary outpatient hospital. Nearby residents would also come here for treatment for minor illnesses such as coughs and colds.

“From a performance point of view, the Ping An Hospital seems to be a very normal hospital, and it can even be called one that is kind and helpful.” Shen Yu pondered, “but there are a lot of things in it, which is unreasonable after considering it carefully.”

“Generally, sent by patients, the pennants should be hung in various departments and the dean’s office for ordinary patients who come and go. However, the Ping An Hospital hangs pennants in the archives uncharacteristically. So whom is this for?”

“Ordinary patients don’t come here. People who come and can come to the archives room to check the medical records generally have nothing to ask for. And the Ping An Hospital seems to deliberately tell the visitors of this room that they are good people and family. The charity hospital without hiding anything…”

“The smell of a facade is too strong!” Starscream commented.

Shen Yu nodded, expressing the doubts over what he’d found: “Secondly, I checked the medical records just now and found that most of the patients’ medical records were only from the last ten years.”

“What about the medical records of those mentally ill patients before that? Especially the homeless people, there are no records of their discharge here.”

Starscream sighed and put back the medical record book in his hand: “No need to look for it. If the hospital wants to hide something, it is impossible to get useful information in the archive room.”

Shen Yu lowered his head to ponder for a moment, and suddenly said: “Where’s the dean’s office?”

If he is the dean, any important information will be kept in the place nearest to him.

There are terrain restrictions in this story, and all scenes must take place in the safe hospital, so important information of people which cannot be found, may be kept in the dean’s office.

Hearing this, the red-haired girl frowned: “I’ve seen the dean’s office before, but the door of the office can’t be opened either. Just like the basement, do you have an office key?”

“No, my key can only open the iron fence in the basement.”

Shen Yu smiled: “But, I have the Physics Sword.”

[Prop: Physics sword]

【You picked up the crowbar dropped by the chef, congratulations on obtaining this physics sword, hehe! 】

【Use the props, you can use the crowbar in your hand to pry open all door locks and open all closed doors.】

【Ps: Give me a fulcrum, I can pry the whole earth… This sentence is important, the crowbar really can’t pry the earth.】

Now that they have the props for opening the door and picking the lock, the three of them no longer hesitated, and set off directly to the dean’s office.

They had just been in the archives room on the first floor of the building on the left, and the dean’s office is on the top floor of the middle building.

The three talents hadn’t been walking for long, and a middle-aged doctor in a white coat hurried towards them.

Shen Yu recognized this person; the first person he saw after entering the story was Dr. Zhang Changlei.

At this time, Doctor Zhang had a sullen face and a vaguely anxious look in his eyes. He came to the three of them and asked straightforwardly: “Security personnel are not allowed to hang out during their work.” The red-haired girl asked with a grin: “Aren’t we patrolling? How is this considered hanging out?”

Dr. Zhang glared at her irritably, “Now that there is a mess at the back, you have a leisurely mind to wander around here… I have something to explain to you!”

Shen Yu’s eyebrows jumped, and he immediately asked raptly: “At the back? The backyard of the hospital? What happened?”

Dr. Zhang vaguely said: “Nothing big, just a little mess… The three of you, put down the other tasks on your hands now. All of you are to go to the basement to guard it.”

“The hospital’s morgue is located in the basement, where the remains of many deceased people are stored. Don’t be negligent!” It turned out to be a morgue?

When Shen Yu heard the words, they looked at each other with a little surprise.

Here, Doctor Zhang was still urging the three of them to rush to the basement.

Starscream smiled and said, “Doctor, we’ll go in a while, and you don’t have to follow after us.”

Doctor Zhang raised his glasses on the bridge of his nose blankly: “No, the situation is urgent. The three of you will go now! I’ll watch you go.”

Shen Yu also asked: “Then the hospital got into trouble, don’t the three of us need to help?”

Doctor Zhang’s eyes flickered, and he continued vaguely: “No, it’s just a little trouble….The basement is still more important and needs someone to guard it.”

Seeing his insistence, the three of them had no choice but to sigh quietly and put the plan to go to the dean’s office on hold for the time being.

As if afraid that the three would be lazy, Dr. Zhang actually monitored them all the way and “escorted” the three to the iron fenced door of the basement.

Shen Yu took out the rusty key and unlocked the door.

Hearing the “crush” of the fence, the old man in the guard’s room slipped out listlessly, still crouched, with a thin body leaning against the door, and glanced at the three people who were about to enter the basement.

“Yo! Came back so soon? I hope you three can make it through this night! Don’t be like the security guards before, who can’t stay in the middle of the night, crawling up with shit, crying and resigning the next day!” The old man laughed.

“Old Head Li, what nonsense are you talking about?” Doctor Zhang was anxious and snarled.

The old man still maintained a lazy appearance and continued to scare the three of them: “Do you know why the security guards here always resign?”

“I heard from the previous security guards that when they went to the basement to patrol in the middle of the night, they could always hear the corpses lying in the morgue, chatting quietly. In the dead of night, some corpses could still get up by themselves and walk around slowly……”

“Don’t listen to Old Li’s nonsense!”

Doctor Zhang was afraid that the three of them would be too scared to enter the basement, and hurriedly said: “Because human organs have high medical value, there are always some crazy criminals who touch them in the middle of the night. Entering the morgue to steal the corpse, pretending to be a ghost, deliberately frightening those courageous security guards.”

Hearing this, the old doorman couldn’t help snorting coldly: “Yes! Recently, the corpses in the morgue are always unsettled. The dean is not in a hurry. He hasn’t come to work for days…”

“Okay, shut up!”

Doctor Zhang shouted at him impatiently, then wiped the sweat from his forehead while continuing to urge the three of them to go down.

The three exchanged glances, and finally Shen Yu went ahead, Starscream coming last to sandwich the weaker red-haired girl in the middle, and walked cautiously into the basement in that formation.

Different from the basement in their imagination, the basement passage of the hospital was narrow, cramped and humid. Walking in it, one can only feel a force of humidity and the cold air from freezing the corpses.

After the passage leveled off, an iron door appeared abruptly, and there was a small window on the door to peek inside the box.

Looking into the window, it was pitch black, except for the row of dim faint lights above the hallway in the middle of the room.

Shen Yu looked along the lights, and could only vaguely see the two rows of mortuary trolleys stationed on both sides of the aisle.

The corpses on the beds were covered with white cloth. From the bulging shape of the white cloth, it could be vaguely seen that the heads of these corpses were facing inward, and the soles of their feet were facing away from the aisle.

Those white cloths did not cover the entire body, exposing two rows of pale gray soles of dead people’s feet, which could be seen clearly under the pale light.

The morgue in Ping An Hospital is very simple, as if it was not built by a regular construction team, instead made by the hospital staff itself.

Shen Yu took a deep breath, pressing the black book with one hand and the doorknob with the other, opening the iron door as quietly as possible, and came to the middle of the two rows of corpses.

The corpses shrouded in the white cloth were all quiet, and there was no chatting, let alone getting up and walking around.

He carefully lifted a piece of white cloth, a pair of red and open eyes suddenly appearing under his hand.

Shen Yu paused briefly, and continued to lift up the entire white cloth, completely revealing the appearance of the body.

The body was pale and shriveled. The limbs seemed to be elongated, the joints were prominent, the bones on the back were raised high, there was no hair on the whole body, and the pair of red eyes were raised.

The most shocking thing is that the corpse’s mouth was grinning, revealing unusual fangs and teeth.

The second is like a human being, and the third is like a ghost.

The three took a breath, but they didn’t stop, and they lifted all the white cloths around.

Every corpse was like this, all of them looking inhuman and ghostly, and some corpses even had a lot of signs of being eaten.

Among them is a corpse with fresh anatomical wounds and sutures on it.

“This is the secret of Ping An Hospital? Where did they get this kind of ghost?” the red-haired girl murmured.

Looking at the corpse full of dissected wounds and sutures, Shen Yu suddenly thought of it and took out his black book.

He has a new skill that is suitable for identifying the corpse right now.

[Use Skill: Chef’s knife ]

【The chef’s knife is not only a killing knife, but also a knife for cutting meat and deboning. 】【Use of skills, an Eviscerate knife appears in the hand, aim at the target, as long as there is flesh and blood, the target can be completely dismembered within a minute.】                                     【Ps: The chef asked me to bring you a sentence: “Where did Dad go? Where did Mom go?”】

A sharp knife appeared in Shen Yu’s hand. Shuttling between the gaps, it was like breaking down an entire machine into countless parts at a rapid speed.

When he dissected the monster’s chest, he suddenly stopped.

A cold, colorless heart was beating faintly in the monster’s chest.

All three of them widened their eyes silently.

This monster… This monster who isn’t breathing at all along with not having a warm body, was still alive?

Shen Yu frowned and stopped.

Anatomy of living creatures is not acceptable to him.

Whether it is a human or a monster.

“Help,” he said.

Starscream understood, stepped forward, and used her skills.

He saw a bunch of translucent spider silks that looked like sutures, and this poor creature that had been dissected to a normal level was stitched up hastily again.

At this time, the black book in the hands of the three was slightly hot.

【A little security guard came to the morgue. 】

【He will spend the longest night in his life. 】

【But in the darkness, he heard the corpses whispering. 】

【You look so delicious! 】

【Be careful! Several bodies are sometimes lost in the morgue. 】

【Some security guards are sometimes lost.】

After hurriedly reading the new plot information from the Black Book, Shen Yu felt that something seemed to be peeping at him.

He suddenly raised his head, but saw that the hastily stitched monster was still lying on the bed without moving, yet the scarlet raised eyes were staring at the three of them.

Not only this monster, but all the monsters that had had their white cloth lifted off. Right now, they all stared at them strangely with blood-red eyes from different angles.

Upon seeing this, Starscream carefully guarded her cousin behind her while Shen Yu placed one hand on the black book, and the three slowly retreated to the door.

Following their movements, the eyes of those monsters were also slowly turning, and their eyes never left the three of them.

But fortunately, the movements of these monsters were extremely slow, only their eyes turned, but their movements to try and get up were almost non-existent.

The three of them exited the morgue smoothly and came to the cramped basement passage. In this kind of terrain, if a monster strikes, there are many skills that cannot be used.

Starscream embraced her cousin and walked towards the basement exit.

But before leaving, Shen Yu remembered the prompt on the black book, hesitated for a moment, and threw a prop-luminol into the morgue.

In a relatively dark environment, the bodies of those monsters were all covered with a faint blue light, which would not disappear in a short time.

After doing this, he turned around and ran to the basement exit.

Doctor Zhang, who had been guarding the first floor, saw that the three of them had returned, one after another. He suddenly roared, “Who made you come out? Didn’t I say that you stay in the morgue?”

Starscream sneered: ” Did you make us go on a patrol, or made us deliver food?” The old doorman was still watching and shouted loudly: “I’ll just say it! Those corpses may be lost, because they don’t want to stay there…”

“Old head Li, shut up!”

Doctor Zhang scolded again, and then commanded everyone with a face of indifference: “Stay at your post…” It was just that before he could say anything, there was a sudden roar of footsteps, like thunder rolling to the ground, rolling from behind the hospital.

The expression on Dr. Zhang’s face was vacant, and he looked in the direction of the noise in amazement: “The riot… they couldn’t control it?”

A group of people wearing hospital gowns with red eyes came along with the voices. Mad dog-like patients were running, jumping, and howling while attacking the hospital building.

Within the crowd, there was a woman, covered with scars. She desperately dodged from the patient’s frantic attacks, fleeing in despair, her body bloody, and there was not a portion left on her skin that was still unblemished.

The woman raised her head and met Shen Yu’s gaze inadvertently, and both of them could not help being taken aback.

The last time he saw Zhang Keke, it was in the story of “The Lost Portrait”. She was unlucky enough to be turned into a dog-skin man by the big villain. When she was rescued by Shen Yu and the others, she was only left with her last breaths.

In this story, why is she still so unlucky?

Shen Yu couldn’t help muttering in his heart.

But at the moment she saw Shen Yu, Zhang Keke’s mood was complicated and desperate.

With a bite, the flesh on her arm was snatched by the patient who was catching up behind her.

The pain brought her back to her senses; Zhang Keke gritted her teeth disgruntledly and rushed towards Shen Yu’s group.

Doctor Zhang’s face suddenly changed.
