Thirteen prisons

Chapter 10
At that time, after Aaron rushed back in a hurry, he went directly outside the room to call Xiaoqing, but he shouted for a long time, but there was still no response from inside, but the crying continued.The proprietress became anxious, because after a while, some guests gathered around to watch the excitement, so the impact would definitely not be good, so she ordered Aaron to find a way to open the door quickly.

Aaron got the order and immediately went to find a tool to pry open the door.But what makes people laugh and cry is that although the door bolt is a decoration, it is very neatly made. After being barred inside, it is stuck tightly. Can't get in.

This is a pain for Aaron. After working for a long time with his people, he was tired and sweaty, and the door just couldn't be opened. Finally, he had no choice but to find a sledgehammer, trying to destroy the door, but he didn't He tried to do it, but the proprietress stopped him because the door was expensive and she was a little bit reluctant.

There is nothing wrong with the proprietress doing this, but Aaron broke out. He felt that Xiaoqing's life is not as good as a door with the proprietress, and he almost didn't fight with the proprietress. The scene was a bit chaotic at the time. , was in full swing, and a sharp-eyed waiter noticed that there was a burst of fog in the locked massage room, and Xiaoqing's crying stopped at that moment.

The sudden burst of fog from the door was so heavy that the quarrel between Aaron and the proprietress stopped immediately, because everyone realized that something was wrong, because the fog that came out of the crack in the door was not the smoke from burning, but is water vapor.

The water in the bath pool in the boiling night club is controlled by a thermal cycle water pipe.That system was buried underground, and the massage room where Xiaoqing was waiting for the heat was fully equipped, so it was naturally connected to this kind of thing.The sudden burst of hot air from inside the door can only mean that the hot air circulation pipe inside is leaking.A leak of that thing will cause a series of problems, the most serious is that the pressure of the boiler for heating hot water will change accordingly. They are open all day, and the boiler is always on, so it may explode at any time.

The proprietress naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, and when she saw that there was so much heat coming out, she no longer cared about the solid wood door, and while ordering to depressurize the boiler, she asked Aaron to open the door quickly by all means.

The proprietress let go, and Aaron didn't have to talk about the rules. He picked up the big hammer and started smashing.But the door was really strong, and several people took turns changing it, and it took more than ten minutes to break the door open.

The massage room is divided into two rooms, the inside and the outside. The massage is on the outside, and the inside is a small bathroom with a shower. The two cabins are separated by a large solid wood and frosted glass.Aaron was worried about Xiaoqing, so he rushed in first, but as soon as he entered, he found that his sight was blocked by the heat and he could hardly see anything. Fortunately, as soon as the door was opened, the ventilation inside and outside made the heat discharge much smoother. While calling Xiaoqing's name, he turned on the light and searched.

The room was filled with heat, and there was a strange sound echoing in the room. Aaron was a little strange. He heard that the sound seemed to come from the shower room inside.Without delay, he quickly scanned the outer room and the massage table, and found that Xiaoqing was not there, so he walked towards the shower room where the noise was coming from.

As he approached, he saw clouds of steam billowing outward from the door of the shower room.This surprised him, because it meant that the hot air pipe in the shower room might indeed be leaking.But it soon became clear that something was wrong, because on the frosted glass that was used as a partition between the two rooms, there was a group of black shadows in the shape of a human being.Although it is not very clear, it can still be seen that a large amount of steam is coming out of that black shadow. The situation is very similar to boiling hot water, but it is much bigger than that.

Aaron rushed in immediately. He had already thought that if the black shadow inside was Xiaoqing, the heat coming out might be due to the hot water circulation in the shower being turned on to the maximum. Qing will definitely be scalded.

He didn't have the time to think about why Xiaoqing turned on the hot water pipe, he rushed in two steps, and saw that the black shadow on the ground was indeed Xiaoqing.The girl was half-naked, lying motionless on the ground with her head down, letting the water rush on her body, making a sizzling sound from the steaming heat.

Aaron trembled with distress, pulled a blanket hanging at the door, and rushed over, trying to cover Xiaoqing's body and drag him over, but he jumped up as soon as he touched Xiaoqing's body. It was already so hot that he couldn't touch it, and what surprised him even more was that the splashing shower water turned out to be cold.

Only then did Aaron discover a fact that he couldn't understand at all: the heat that came out was actually caused by the cold water in the shower being evaporated by the heat from Xiaoqing's body.

"Damn, Xiaoqing's situation, isn't it the same as... me?" Zhou Yuan felt his head tense when he heard this. The heat that came from nowhere.He instantly thought of the fact that his body temperature had reached 38.5 degrees inexplicably, but this guess was too scary.

"Don't get excited, it may not be the same. Yours is actually normal. The highest body temperature of the human body can reach 42 degrees. It should be able to warm the cold water to generate some heat. But like Xiaoqing, when the cold water is poured on the body, there will be so much steam. , I think it has gone beyond our common sense." Lu Ming comforted.

"Are Aaron's words exaggerated?"

"Actually, I really hope that Aaron's words are exaggerated. It's a pity that he wasn't alone at the time. Apart from the proprietress, there were several other waiters who also saw it, so it must be true that this matter is dead." Lu Ming Always calm, Zhou Yuan often ridicules that his nerves are made of iron, and that he is suitable for the profession of a doctor.But when he said this, his eyes began to look a little lax, and he didn't seem to believe what he said next: "Aaron said that Xiaoqing's body felt as hot as burning coals at the time, and her body He will never forget the sizzling sound of steam coming out of the shower water as the heat evaporates."

Zhou Yuan's throat was dry and he couldn't say anything.

"Now you know why I said this is strange." Lu Ming's eyes turned to Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan looked at him, touched his hand, and thought about that scene in his heart, trembling slightly.He knew that he was afraid, afraid that what happened to Xiaoqing would happen to him again.

Lu Ming comforted: "Zhou Yuan, Xiaoqing must have had physical contact with that Liu San, so her situation is different from yours. The cause of Xiaoqing's death is not yet conclusive, but it must be very complicated. I can tell you that she still has secondary syphilis."

Zhou Yuan raised his head in surprise: "Syphilis?"

Lu Ming nodded, then lowered his voice and said: "However, the main feature of that disease is local ulcers, and the second stage will produce rashes, but the rashes are ring-shaped particles, and the onset will not be so fast , which is the main difference, but complications are possible."

"But what complication you mentioned, will it make people burn?" Zhou Yuan was very grateful for Lu Ming's comfort, but his reason told him that it was not that simple: "Do you know what I thought? Let me tell you, Yesterday, shortly after getting out of my car, the man spontaneously ignited before my eyes! I just want to know if his and Xiaoqing's symptoms are the same? Am I also... going to burn?" said Zhou Yuan's voice trembled slightly here.

At this time, Lao Hu suddenly asked: "Doctor Lu, is there really such a thing as spontaneous combustion in your medical cases? If so, is it possible that it is genetic?"

Lu Ming was silent for a long time before he said: "I asked Aaron yesterday that Xiaoqing's previous two generations did not have this kind of problem. Therefore, family inheritance can be ruled out. Now it is basically certain that Xiaoqing's rash is Allergies and infections. But whether there is any connection between her fever and death, I can’t say now, I can only know after testing, but at present, this is not realistic, because the family members may not agree.”

He paused and continued: "As for human body heating and spontaneous combustion, there have been some records, but there is no clear video record, so it is doubtful. When I was in college, the teacher asked us to conduct a demonstration discussion on this topic, We have used many medical speculations to prove its possible existence, but finally concluded that the spontaneous combustion of human body is not established."

Zhou Yuan said anxiously: "I swear that Liu San's spontaneous combustion is not fake, because I saw it with my own eyes."

"I believe you too, but there must be some reason. The human body will not spontaneously combust without reason. It may use other forces." Lu Ming said.

Neither Zhou Yuan nor Lao Hu spoke again.

At this moment, Lu Ming suddenly turned around and said, "Aaron has come out."
