Your Majesty, drink the medicine quickly

Chapter 54 Extra People

The little nurse hasn't pushed the wheelchair over yet, and Li Pu is waiting in the silent corridor in a panic. So he turned his head with his hand and looked at the gap between the ward door and the floor.

The gap is so narrow that even if the floor is as smooth as a mirror, you can't see clearly what's inside. But when Li Pu thought about what it looked like inside, paralyzed on the ground, he felt like he could move.

Suddenly, he jumped up on the ground with great energy.

"Now I can somewhat understand Katerina's daily pain. But she must also be very happy every day!"

He looked anxiously at the combination lock on the ward door. Li Pu took out a work card from his pocket - the 'Dean Lu's work card' that he had made with Creation before.

After swiping the card, Li Pu entered a series of passwords in front of the door - the little nurse had entered both sides before, and he remembered it without reading the narration.

"A door is a door. How dirty is the inside of this door?"

With a creak, Li Pu pushed open the door. Looking at the scene inside, Li Pu was stunned.

The inside of the door is not dirty at all, but it is very 'dirty'.

Because this turned out to be an upside-down room!

Strictly speaking, it is two rooms that overlap each other.

If you separate the two rooms in an abstract way, you can find that one of them should be a small book exhibition and leisure room.

That's right, the 7th floor was not a ward area before, but a public area.

Today’s Book Expo Lounge no longer has its original appearance. Because it has been overlapped with a 'large living room', forming a multi-geometric abstract room.

[How familiar is the living room? 】

"This, this living room... why is it so untidy!!"

He hit his head hard, disrupting the 'obsessive-compulsive disorder' thinking in his mind. Li Pu carefully paid attention to the living room that overlapped with the library.

Because of the overlap, the living room is completely unrecognizable. But Li Pu felt inexplicably familiar.

He felt inexplicably flustered, and patches of cold sweat broke out on his head.

"D-did you see it?"

There was a wave of anxious inquiries from the door behind him. As if because she didn't hear Li Pu's answer, the little head nurse carefully pushed the wheelchair and stretched her head towards the door, but she didn't dare to take a closer look.

She asked eagerly: "What does that room look like in your eyes?"

"You have never had hallucinations, Liu Wen. This room is real." Li Pu said with a cold sweat on his face: "MD, let me tell you! This lunatic asylum hides a big secret!!"

Li Pu's words shattered the head nurse's last illusion. She squatted on the ground holding the back of her wheelchair and cried.

"I knew it, I knew it! Those things are all true!"

"When did this living room appear here?" Li Pu slowly sat in the wheelchair and asked without looking back.

If you really guessed it right, then it would be a big deal!

But why did it become like this? Has the seventh floor always been like this?
  "It wasn't like this here originally." The little nurse rubbed her eyes and told Li Pu's back what happened: "It happened about two weeks ago."

The word "two weeks" made Li Pu frown - two weeks ago, that was the time when he jumped off the building, and the time just happened to match!

During that time, he faced the evil god directly, and then returned to the real world.

"That day, the doctors were frightened and went crazy. I know they are not crazy, but no one will believe what I say, and I dare not say more. Oh, oh, oh, oh, I will be locked up as a lunatic like those doctors."

It seemed that she finally had a normal person who could believe in herself. The little nurse was very excited. She burst out the emotions she had suppressed for a long time and said many things.

In the beginning, the library on the 7th floor was not like this. At that time, this was just a public activity area popular with patients.

[The turning point occurred ten years ago when the library collected a new batch of fairy tale books, and a careless doctor left a children's book that he had taken from a newly admitted patient here]

Li Pu's heart skipped a beat. Maybe he opened the door ten years ago - I don't know.

[After that, a rumor gradually appeared in Ward F.]

[——Whenever night comes, if the last person leaving the library and leisure room that day does not close the door. In the F ward, there will always be one more person]

Who would take the words of the patients in the lunatic asylum seriously?
  What's more, there are too many weird rumors here in the lunatic asylum - some are nonsense told by patients when they are ill, and some are made up by some patients out of boredom.

Sometimes, it is even words casually said by the patient's family members or doctors in order to appease the patient's mood.

There will be one more person at night - this 'original rule of survival' is hidden in many crazy words.

"There used to be a lot of people in Building F, with a high turnover of patients, and each department was responsible for different floors. So except for the patients and family members we were responsible for, we (nurses) couldn't tell the difference between the patients on different floors. When you meet a person wearing hospital clothes, who would have thought that that person is not from our hospital?"

In addition, patients in mental hospitals are already difficult to manage, and Hollyoak has become increasingly mismanaged over the years. It often happens that patients, family members and even doctors on different floors go to other floors to visit in the middle of the night when they are bored.

Therefore, this kind of thing happens often, and people don't take it too seriously.

However, if someone is on duty in the middle of the night and meets a person who claims that his room is on the seventh floor, it would be quite embarrassing.

And if, after many encounters, the nurse faced his appeal and followed him to the library on the seventh floor out of helplessness, and then turned around and saw that no one was there while flipping through the books, that would be even more perplexing. .

Liu Wen is that nurse.

"I reported this matter to the hospital, and it attracted some attention. But after the Luyuan personally led people to investigate, they found that it was an error."

"It turns out that the institute planned to jointly carry out a project with the Hollyoak Institute, and that person was the investigator sent by the institute to make an undercover visit. But the institute did not expect that the investigator would visit in this way."

Liu Wen swallowed her dry throat and said: "On that day, the hospital issued an announcement saying that the institute had officially decided to cooperate with our hospital - that night, the seventh floor was sealed. The hospital Ward F was renovated urgently."

“Incredibly efficient”

"According to the announcement, in order to cooperate with the research institute's projects, the hospital will change Area F into a laboratory building. After that, all the patients and employees in Area F were transferred away, leaving only volunteers. .”

Li Pu frowned. In order to cure his terminal illness, his parents also helped him sign an agreement to participate in research on the disease. So, he is also a volunteer.

He could understand the mood of these volunteers. For them, life has reached a point of no return. This type of groundbreaking experimental treatment is their only light in the darkness.

"Because the pay was really high, I stayed. Over the years, we have always abided by the provisions of the confidentiality agreement. Don't look too much, don't think too much, don't ask too many questions."

"But I couldn't stop thinking about it because the money was too much. And some of the regulations were simply based on my personal experience - the hospital told us that no matter who the nurse on duty met at night, Treat him or her as a patient."

Speaking of this, Liu Wen's hand holding the wheelchair tightened slightly, as if she recalled many terrible memories.

——Rule: In Ward F, there are only two kinds of people: patients and nurses.

"Slowly, there are more and more strange things happening."

"For money, for life, and for living like normal people, we started to ignore, shut up, and lie.

We even started telling patients that the reason they could see and hear was because they were sick! "

——Rule: Anyone who can see and hear is a patient!

Hearing this, Li Pu's scalp went numb.

Maybe, many of the patients here are just like me. They are not sick at all, but a group of people who saw, heard, and spoke out!
