Returning from the abyss

Chapter 617 Loss of Personnel
The novelty of going to the outer city again was much less. Out of familiarity with the environment, Lu Ning finally chose the previous outer city.

After so many days, there is still not much change in the outer city, and the unchanging daily life is almost the theme here.Of course, this does not include those small teams who receive noble rewards and live an "exciting" life. These teams travel back and forth between the outer cities all the year round, choosing the most suitable rewards from the various weird rewards issued by the nobles.Lu Ning and the others didn't expect to see Lan Tu and the others again.

The first destination is still the hospital. As the Mist family management organization that has inextricable connections with Heike, the hospital provides many free medical methods for Heike.The doctor wearing gold-rimmed glasses just looked at Zhu Qinyuan's condition, and said something simple, and called two nurses to come over and send Zhu Qinyuan into the medical room.

Lu Ning noticed that none of the staff here had Mist's coat of arms on them.

In order to act efficiently, only Lu Ning and Yan Rong accompanied Zhu Qinyuan to the hospital. While waiting for the operation, Yan Rong also stopped by other departments to ask about body strengthening, and Lu Ning sat at the door of the medical room with nothing to do. Waiting for the treatment to end, by the way, listen to the conversations of some doctors and nurses.

"Do you know where Kuntu has gone?"

The whispers of the two nurses penetrated into Lu Ning's ears. They were chatting in a nearby dispensing room, their voices were very low, if it wasn't for the quietness in the corridor and Lu Ning's super-normal hearing, they wouldn't be able to hear at all.

"I haven't seen him for three days." Another nurse complained, "Even though he's an intern pharmacist and doesn't work hard, do you really think that Mist Hospital is a place where anyone can enter?"

"You're just putting extra workload on you because he's not around?"

"Why, can't you complain?"

"After all, Doctor Ito has never asked about his whereabouts. It stands to reason that doctors should know the whereabouts of their subordinates."

"That's only a matter of asking for leave. That kid Kuntu disappeared for no reason, who knows where he went."

"In that case, the doctor will certainly ask."

"...Hey, I'm a little scared."

"What are you afraid of?"

"I came to work in Mist's hospital in order to have a stable job and considerable income. I don't want to disappear for no reason. This kind of thing happens a lot in the outer city."

The door opened, and the two stopped chatting. They pushed a small cart with medicines and walked to another corridor. Lu Ning glanced at them, and stood up after they left completely, pretending to be a little irritated and turned around on the spot. circled.

Mist's hospital can indeed treat most of the common diseases, and as a subsidiary institution of the nobles, its security measures are also quite good. It is difficult for ordinary accidents to occur here under double insurance.

Missing a person... Maybe this is just a trivial matter in the outer city. Things like that can be suppressed before, and the disappearance of a person will not cause any waves.

"Miss, may I ask if you are..."

A doctor walked out of another department. He probably saw Lu Ning walking around outside and came out to ask.Lu Ning looked up. This is the Department of Stomatology, and it seems that it is very busy now.

"Sorry, my friend is receiving treatment, I'm a little impatient." Lu Ning said.

The doctor laughed: "That's human nature, but don't worry, since you paid the money, Mist can help you cure all kinds of diseases. If you really feel worried, why don't you come in and have a sit? I don't usually have any patients here. .”

"Oh? But the Department of Stomatology... doesn't sound like a very busy place. People should often suffer from this kind of disease."

The doctor let Lu Ning into his department, which is quite big, but he was alone, and the other doctors didn't know where to go.He poured a cup of hot water for Lu Ning, sat at his desk and smiled bitterly: "It seems that you don't live in an outer city? Could it be Heike?"

"Indeed." Lu Ning rolled up her sleeves.

"No wonder." The doctor nodded, "You don't have any memory, so you don't know... People in the city are either too healthy or too unhealthy. In fact, not many people come to the hospital for minor problems such as oral cavity."

"Small problems?"

"They would rather have an intensive operation to solve minor ailments based on their physical fitness than to spend a little money to see a doctor. People always talk about doctors and think that going to the hospital will cost a lot of money, but in fact it is Because people are always seeing serious illnesses. Overall we have very few patients here."

"What about the other doctors? And...why do you still keep this department? If you can solve the problem through other channels, it doesn't make sense to set up a stomatology department, right?"

The doctor picked up his cup and took a sip, his expression became even more bitter.

"I'm not afraid to complain to you. Most of the doctors who can come to Mist are good at various diagnosis and treatment. Now there is no one here, of course they have gone to other departments."

"So enthusiastic about work?"

"It's not that I'm enthusiastic about work, but that every additional person treated is beneficial to the doctor. I can't go into details about this." The doctor shook his head, "And I can only stay because of my relatively low qualifications. A doctor is always on the lookout for potential patients."

Lu Ning showed sympathy: "Then you are really miserable."

"So I also want to chat with others. Even the nurses here are not willing to come in. After all, work is directly related to profit. Everyone wants to save more. I can't get any money here, so no one will come."

The doctor's appearance is indeed a bit depressed, he does look very young, Lu Ning asked about his resume, this person is also smooth sailing - this is actually not easy in the outer city - he is in a medical school in the outer city After studying medicine for eight years, he was directly discovered from an ordinary clinic to Mist's hospital with excellent results. At that time, all relatives and friends congratulated him on his success, even he himself thought so.

Who knew that there were strict rules in the hospital, not only the rules of Mist, but also the workplace atmosphere formed here.Of course, this doctor has learned more than one oral cavity, because he was young and inexperienced, so he was put in this idle position.

"Patients are resources here... I never believed that I would say such a thing before, but Mist's hospital is like this. You don't have to worry, patients can definitely enjoy good enough medical resources. I just think our The vibe is kind of weird.”

Lu Ning nodded, expressing his understanding.

Then she stood up and walked around. In addition to the desks provided for doctors, each department also has a medicine cabinet for some commonly used medicines. Common medicines do not need to go to the pharmacy to prescribe them.Lu Ning went to the medicine cabinet and took a look. It was also locked, and anyone could not get the medicine. However, there was a list of people who took medicine for nearly four weeks next to the medicine cabinet. Quinto's name was mentioned by a nurse.

"Doctor, may the hospital staff get medicine from the medicine cabinet?" She turned her head and asked.

"If you are here in the department, you have to ask the doctor in the department. What?"

"I see that the names on this list are different, so I'm a little curious." Lu Ning pointed, "If only people in the department can get the medicine, the records left here should be the repetition of several names."

The doctor came over and looked at the list: "Oh, it's really... After all, those guys who went to work in other departments would sometimes send the people next to them to pick up the medicine, and this gang was probably ordered by them Nurses and pharmacists... that's pretty outrageous."

"If you have been here all the time, don't you have the impression that different people always come over?"

"I remember that someone came to pick up the medicine, but I don't remember the face if it's not a patient. Anyway, their authority must be given by those people, and I don't take that responsibility." The doctor curled his lips, "Let me see What did they take..."

After saying this, the doctor stood there frowning.

"Doctor?" Lu Ning glanced at the list. The medicines were all scientific names that she couldn't understand, but there were generally only five types of medicines.

"Pain relief and anesthesia type..."

"You can prescribe this kind of medicine casually?" Lu Ning's mouth twitched.

"The dose of this medicine is very small, it is only used for local anesthesia, and it can't even make people lose consciousness..."

"But one dose is enough?"

The doctor stopped answering and began to hold his chin in thought.

Lu Ning didn't even know what to say. Mist Hospital's management of people is so strict, but the management of drugs is so loose... But it can also be said that people who have adapted to the rules here can easily use the rules to gain convenience for themselves.

"Doctor, can you find out how many people on this list are still working in the hospital?" Lu Ning asked again.

"It's okay if they are all ordinary nurses and pharmacists. After all, I'm an official doctor." He returned to his desk, turned on the screen and quickly entered a page in the hospital, and entered the names of the people on the list.This doctor is indeed an excellent student, it is not easy to memorize all those names in such a short time.

A second later, a row of people appeared on the screen.

【Resignation】, 【Vacation】, 【Dismissal】, 【Absent from work】...

Lu Ning saw cold sweat on the doctor's forehead.

In addition to the profession of doctors, the staff in Mist Hospital has a huge flow of people in other positions. Many people come here to work for gold plating, and leave after they can't stand the working atmosphere here. Some small clinics find good jobs.On this basis, doctors themselves basically recognize people by their work cards. After all, these nurses, pharmacists and the like will disappear one day. It is not worth spending too much time memorizing each card in the busy work Face.

"I...I have to make a call, that...miss..."

"I know, I won't bother you anymore." Lu Ning retreated empathetically, and closed the door of the department.

With her hearing, she discovered that the doctor was actually calling his family and was already discussing resignation. Lu Ning could only shake her head when she heard this.At this time, Yan Rong had already consulted to return here, and asked a question when he saw Lu Ning's actions.

"It's nothing, wait for Zhu Qinyuan to come out, we have something to do today." Lu Ning said.

The so-called thing to do is naturally the incident here in the hospital. Lu Ning was not such a warm-hearted person at first, and she didn't take it very seriously when someone died in Mist Hospital. It's just that after the fusion suddenly yesterday, she didn't even think about it. The power that drives the treasure itself can also see some suspected traces of the past. It must be said that it should belong to the "fate line" and "karma line". In short, it can show the connection between some things.

The traces extending from that list and the list of personnel checked by the doctor after that almost converged into one, and it was difficult for Lu Ning to ignore it.Since this incident is not a coincidence of various circumstances but an anomaly created by a single person, let's see what the situation is.

Zhu Qinyuan's treatment time ended soon. The golden substance was completely expelled from her body. At the same time, her body was meticulously repaired and maintained. When Lu Ning and Yan Rong saw her, they could feel the radiance Refreshing feeling.

"The feeling of recovery is really great." Zhu Qinyuan was in a good mood now, and Lu Ning directly pulled her into a corner and told her findings.

"Then can you find out who is behind the attack?"

"So many traces gathered in one place, it should be easy to detect." Lu Ning nodded, "How is your condition?"

"You can have a good fight at any time. Having said that, if this is really a conspiracy that often happens in the outer city, I think it's better for us not to participate casually. We don't have so much time to waste."

Zhu Qinyuan's thinking is quite calm, after all, there are too many other things in the outer city, and they can't manage it.

"The treasure shows that this matter has a subtle connection with us, not very deep, so I am a little interested." Lu Ning explained, "You also know the function of my treasure."

"Then I have no objection."

After quickly reaching an agreement, the three of Lu Ning went up the stairs. There are actually a lot of people coming and going in Mist's hospital, many of them are the kind of people who look very rich, and the three of them are not very conspicuous when they are mixed in the middle.Following the trace identified earlier, Lu Ning stopped at the door of a department on the fourth floor.

"Here?" Yan Rong looked up.

On the door of the department was written "Department of Curse and Magical Injury". It was quite normal in a hospital environment. After thinking for a while, Lu Ning pushed the door open. The decoration layout here was no different from other departments, at most it was more Some medical equipment with more magical characteristics.The entry of the three did not cause any reaction at all, only the patients queuing up by the door moved aside silently.

- There are too many people in this place.

For a moment, Lu Ning thought of the empty state of the Department of Stomatology. In contrast, the fifteen regular consultation tables in this department were full of people, and there were more than ten people queuing up by the wall.

Of course, these are not the main points, Lu Ning looked around, and finally landed on one of the brown-haired male doctors.
