Trying to pretend to be human today

Chapter 367 A familiar person
Protect... Baisu?Gu Cheng's unfinished words can be condensed into these four words, to protect Baisu.

But why?Chen Zi was a little puzzled at the time. In her opinion or in her impression, the black-haired young man's mysterious strength and his mysteriousness made him seem like he didn't need protection.

Instead, she heard Qi Zhuyue talk about some experiences and felt that Bai Su was the one who followed his heart and had no behavioral logic.

He grabbed the person casually, watching the person fall into the trap and remain unmoved.

Of course, these comments were made by her and Qi Zhuyue in private, and she had not talked to anyone else.

Chen Zi was really confused, so she asked her boss why and gave her own guess.

"Is it because... is it because the supernatural items attached to Bai Su's body are difficult to deal with?"

The conjecture given by Chen Zi is reasonable.

The death of some companions is not only a sad farewell, but also the beginning of a nightmare.

Supernatural objects attached to humans often show signs of contamination while the person is alive, deepening the alienation of the person and transforming the person into a non-human species, not to mention losing control after the death of the host. The supernatural beings are like wild horses running wild, out of control.

Chen Zi has seen such a scene before.

A few years ago, when performing a very dangerous mission, at the final moment of eliminating the supernatural beings, there was such a colleague who sacrificed his life to protect his companions.

What happened next?Chen Zi recalled that she saw flowers grown from bones blooming from a person's body. The flower buds swayed for a moment and then exploded, turning into bone spurs and galloping toward the surrounding companions.

What happened next? Chen Zi didn't really want to recall that bloody scene.

Now, the short-haired woman has substituted this fragment of the past. She remembered that there seemed to be something on Bai Su. She was thinking whether the danger of the supernatural being out of control was too great, so she had to put the safety of the black-haired young man before herself. .

Captain Gu had a subtle expression on his face after hearing this.

He didn't say whether it was right or wrong. He just thought about it thoughtfully and then replied: "You can think so... you may be right."

Later, Chen Zi received the mission and drove to pick up Bai Su from the mental hospital, and entered smoothly with the identity materials prepared by the bureau.

"...Chen Zi?" Bai Su looked at the person who was in a trance and entering memories. He shouted several times but got no answer. Seeing that Dr. Hao was coming back, he stretched out his hand and waved in front of the short-haired woman, "Chen Zi! "

A second slightly louder cry woke the short-haired woman from her memories. She said sorry and patted her cheek.

"I thought of some things from the past... It's okay now." Chen Zi waved her hands, and when Dr. Hao came back, she had returned to normal.

Then the ward round process continued, and they went up to the third floor.

According to Dr. Hao, the patient's condition becomes more serious as they go up the stairs, and he will take them through the third floor at most.

"Can't we go up there?" Chen Zi asked curiously.

"Well... the main reason is that I'm afraid of an accident." Dr. Hao replied, "Just like the one you just saw who was injected with a sedative, there are people upstairs with much more serious symptoms than him."

Dr. Hao didn't go into details. He just pushed open the door to the ward in front of him.

Starting from the third floor, some patients who were tied to the hospital bed with restraints gradually appeared. I asked because they were afraid that they would hurt themselves because of their symptoms.

Bai Su's eyes intersected with the patient's on the hospital bed.

He didn't see any ferocious aggression, but instead saw some fear and a cry for help.

Then there was the next person, and there was no light in that person's eyes, only numbness.

Suddenly, when entering a ward, the short-haired woman next to Bai Su shifted her steps. She didn't know what she saw or thought, her shoulders tilted and she almost hit the door frame.

Fortunately, the man reacted quickly. He put his hand on his shoulder and rubbed it, pretending to be uncomfortable and put it next to him.

After that, Chen Zidu was in his usual state, following Dr. Hao in front of him, like a platform staff member who thought he was serious about collecting information, but Bai Su seemed to be a little distracted from his job.

After the ward rounds, Dr. Hao said that Baisu and the others could walk around freely on the first to third floors without interfering with their work. For example, they could ask the nurses at the nurse station for information, collect some information, or put their luggage first. Put it in your room first.

They live with the medical staff. For details, you can ask the nurse at the front desk or Dr. Xu on the first floor to show them the way.

Bai Su originally wanted to implement his character design and go to the nurse station to chat about anything, but Chen Zi spoke first and said he wanted to put down his luggage.

"Go find Dr. Xu, you can just pick up your luggage." Chen Zi said, while casting a look at Bai Su.

Although he didn't understand what the human being wanted to express, Bai Su still followed. For him, there was no difference in going there.

Dr. Xu, who led them in in the morning, was sitting in his office now. After seeing them knocking on the door and explaining their intention, he quickly put down the work at hand.

"Then let me take you there first." Dr. Xu said with a smile, "To facilitate our work, our medical staff also live in the hospital."

The place where I live is really not that far away, in a building on the left rear.

Doctor Xu handed them two keys to two adjacent rooms.

"We don't differentiate between men and women here. They all have independent bathrooms." After saying that, Dr. Xu paused for a few seconds and added, "There were two doctors who lived here before, and they have resigned."

He took a key from it and was about to open the door when Bai Su asked casually: "Why did you leave your job?"

Dr. Xu laughed and shrugged: "What else could it be? Because we are busy with work here and the pay outside is good, people will change jobs."

A reasonable explanation, but placed in this mental hospital, it makes people have to think more.

Since Dr. Xu hadn't left yet, the two people who went in separately to put their luggage stayed in the room for a while.

As soon as Bai Su entered the room, he found signs that someone had lived in this room.

It has a simple bed, a table, chairs and a wardrobe. There is a small balcony outside where you can dry some clothes. The bathroom is fully furnished and even has toiletries left by the previous owner.

Actually, it’s not just the bathroom.

Bai Su turned back to the room, opened the closet and took a look. There were still a lot of clothes hanging inside.

If someone really resigned and left here, how could he leave so many clothes behind?No...it feels like nothing was taken away.

There are clothes from all seasons, and there are even a few new ones that have not been opened.

Bai Su took a look and saw that the labels had not been torn off. He scrolled down and saw a courier box that had not been thrown away. The delivery address was not the mental hospital, but another indoor address. It looked like a unified address. Send it to one place and deliver it all over again.

And it was mailed...just last week.

Bai Su looked at the time and closed the closet door without any intention of taking out the things.

He won't stay here for a few days in total...shouldn't he?The black-haired young man propped his head, thinking uncertainly.

He pushed the luggage towards the bed. After thinking about it, he unzipped it and spread it on the floor. There was also a change of clothes inside.

Bai Su sat by the bed for a while. He took out his mobile phone and found that the signal in the mental hospital was not good. The five-bar signal could only display the worst bar.

Without receiving news from the outside world, Bai Su felt that it was taken for granted.Looking at the several incidents he has experienced, there are few times when the mobile phone signal is good, and the interruption of contact with the outside world always seems to be an inevitable condition.

After a while, there was a knock on the door, and it was Chen Zi who came looking for him.

The short-haired woman pushed open the door amidst Bai Su's promise. She stepped in, closed the door behind her, and locked it.

Baisu:?
He watched the short-haired woman walk in, carefully took out some equipment and explored it, and finally frowned, folded up the scanner-like prop, and stuffed it back into his pocket.

"The rooms are all normal." Chen Zi said.

Bai Su turned his head to look in the direction of the closet in confusion, and asked, "Is it normal?"

There seemed to be a question mark on Chen Zi's head, so Bai Su led people to visit the wardrobe in his room. The short-haired woman also came to the conclusion that the owner of the original room left suddenly.

"It's less than a week...are there any other clues?" Chen Zi pressed his fingers on the express label.

Bai Su shook his head, but still mentioned: "The bottles and cans in the bathroom are also very new. They have not been used for a long time."

Although Chen Zi wanted to search for some clues in this room, she still endured her patience and talked about another topic with Bai Su first.

She talked about her recent gaffe.

"Oh..." Bai Su understood, "Did you almost hit the door before?"

Chen Zi nodded, frowning, grinding her teeth, and finally said: "The person lying on the bed in that ward... seems to be from the team next door..."

The short-haired woman read out a name, but Bai Su didn't recognize it.

There are still too many people in the special department branch, and he can't guarantee that he has seen every one of them, but he can definitely find those who have seen and heard their names from his memory.

"It's normal that you don't know him. He was newly transferred to their team after the last time at the auto repair shop. You probably haven't met him before." Chen Zi had a sad look on his face. "I read the information about their team before I came here. I shouldn't have made a mistake. people."

In fact, when he walked through the first floor and didn't see a single familiar face, Chen Zi felt a little uneasy.

In her impression, even if the members of the team next door came in as patients, they should be in the lightest condition. How could they be seen on the third floor and tied to the bed with restraints?

"I remember..." Bai Su recalled, "He seems to be manic too? He seems to have a bit of pica."

That's how Dr. Hao introduced it. The young man on the hospital bed was lying there in a daze, and he didn't look like he had the symptoms mentioned.

"His eyes have no light and he doesn't respond to you."

"That's what worries me...what exactly is he going through here."

All things considered, the team next door would not have arrived more than five days earlier than them, probably about three days.

Seeing that Chen Zi was really worried, Bai Su asked her if she wanted to go take a look again.

"Anyway, there are no other arrangements for this time, right?"

"Stay in the room and study where the last owner of the room went? Or go back to the area where the patients lived and take a look?"

"You have to have a choice, right?"

Bai Su looked at the human, waiting for him to make a decision.

……

Finally, I still stood here.

They were standing in the corridor where patients were admitted to the hospital. Chen Zi said that she still wanted to confirm the identity of the person. She had taken a quick peek in the ward and there were many details that she had not yet seen.

Bai Su sighed in his heart that humans are very reckless, but he didn't refuse and followed him.

To his right was the nurse's station. The nurse sitting behind her had glanced at them several times, and seemed to be looking at the badges on their chests. She checked several times before she stood up immediately.

Chen Zi walked over and expressed her intention to come. She didn't say that she was going to the ward to see him. She just wanted to ask the nurse about the patient for the purpose of gathering information.

"Collect information." The nurse repeated in a calm tone, "We cannot expose the patient's privacy."

"Ah, no, I just wanted to ask when these patients came in. Dr. Hao just spoke too quickly and didn't remember it." Chen Zi smiled a few words and propped himself up on the table, "At that time, Dr. Hao said We talked about the illnesses of these people and how long they have been here. I just went back and tried to record them, but found that they were mixed up."

As she spoke, the short-haired woman waved the pen and paper on her hand, indicating that a good memory was not as good as a bad pen.

Half of what Chen Zi said was correct, such as symptoms and daily performance, but the doctor named Hao did not tell the time when he entered the hospital at all.

The nurse at the nursing station also glanced at Chen Zi suspiciously several times, but did not see any guilty expression on the latter's face.

The nurse thought for a while and gave Chen Zi additional explanation.

The two were communicating there, but Bai Su's attention was not on them.

He stood a little far away from the short-haired woman and looked to the other side of the corridor outside the ward.

There is a figure at the end of the corridor, holding a mop or a broom doing cleaning work there.

Why look past it?Because he cares a little, this feeling is...

The black-haired young man glanced at the two people at the nurse's station. They were communicating closely and had no intention of looking in his direction.

No, then the nurse seemed to glance at him again, still looking at the badge hanging on his chest.

Without saying hello to Chen Zi, Bai Su took a step forward.

There was no sound when the upper of the shoe was in contact with the ground. Even when he walked past someone, if the other person didn't raise his head, he wouldn't be able to feel much breathing.

When Bai Su was halfway through, the figure who was cleaning up at the end of the corridor suddenly turned around and glanced in the direction of Bai Su.

Then, the figure's figure froze for a moment.

how……?Bai Su tilted his head.

The figure paused for a second, then quickly raised the cleaning tool in his hand, picked up the farther bucket, and ran away.

There was also a staircase on the other side of the corridor, and the figure quickly ran into the stairwell.

When Bai Su walked over, there was no one in the stairwell where the green sign for the emergency exit was hanging.

The black-haired young man held the half-open door and knocked twice on the door panel with his knuckles.

Isn't this the... driver who came to pick him up to take him to the auto repair shop last time?

Why is he running?
　I've been going to the hospital recently, thinking, and I feel like I don't have much time to see a doctor. I'm just queuing up to be called and for examinations ()
