The head nurse doesn't seem like a person who is afraid of anything. When I was here for treatment, I never heard the word "fear" from his mouth. But at this time, the head nurse actually said that she was afraid of an old man with gray temples, which was really ridiculous.
I looked at this old man carefully. Judging from his appearance, this is an ordinary little old man with wrinkles on his face and a gold-rimmed presbyopic glasses on the bridge of his nose. Drooling flipping through the book. While flipping through, the old man used a pen to record something in a small notebook. It was an old Parker pen, which is rarely seen now.
The old man was wearing ordinary casual clothes, which looked very elegant. The teacup on the side was still steaming, and a thermos was placed on the table against the wall. And behind the old man was a bed, the quilt was neatly folded, and the sheets were also very neat, spotless, and looked very clean.
More importantly, there was a window behind the old man. Although the gap was very narrow and blocked with something, it still allowed the old man to see the scenery outside.
This old man seemed powerless, let alone capable of killing people, he might be blown down by a gust of wind if he walked on the street.
However, if the head nurse said that this person was also mentally ill, then naturally it would be impossible to lie. Who would monitor an ordinary old man reading a book if nothing happened? What a boring thing this is. And the head nurse was very afraid of him, and she didn't know why.
I really want to talk to him, people are always like this, curiosity is unstoppable.
If curiosity can be stopped, then human beings will not fly out of the earth and set foot in the universe. If curiosity could get in the way, humans wouldn't discover many deep-sea fish every year. If curiosity could be stopped, human beings would not be where they are today.
And I'm really curious, what kind of ability does this old man have, to sit in a quiet corner, read books and drink tea, this is simply a retired old man.
I really couldn't resist the curiosity in my heart, and asked, "I said head nurse, how did this old man kill people?"
"He doesn't kill people." The head nurse looked at me with an indescribably strange tone.
"He doesn't kill people?" My brows were deeply frowned, and I really couldn't understand what the head nurse said: "How can this old man come in without killing people?"
Gu Chen stared at the TV for a long time before saying: "If you say that he is the scariest person in this mental hospital, why do you still give him books, porcelain cups, and metal pens? Or suicide, there are so many things, any one of them can kill a person."
The head nurse looked at us in secret, and then said: "He doesn't kill people, but the people who met him a few times became mentally ill. Some people went crazy when they came out and became mentally ill. Some people came out He is about to kill, and he will not die. You say that this person is terrible, and he does not kill, but there are many murder cases indirectly caused. Therefore, we have a rule that no one can speak more than three words to him, and if you Ignore him, and he won't talk to you."
"Hypnosis?" Guan Zengbin touched his face and said, "I was fortunate enough to listen to a report meeting of Yang Xiaojuan's forensic doctor. I heard from Miss Xiaojuan that in a case they solved, someone used hypnosis to control others." Behavior that makes people lose their minds?"
Team leader Shao suddenly sighed heavily, and said: "The people who lost their minds that Juanjuan mentioned are probably from their group, but this method of hypnosis requires a special drug, which the old man does not specify. , so it can basically be ruled out, but I heard Juanjuan said that some people's hypnosis is indeed quiet, and you are hypnotized without knowing it."
"And if you don't hear that key word." Team leader Shao paused, as if recalling some sad past, his face was a little gloomy. , may be hypnotized all his life. Or maybe he may have nothing to do all his life, but once he hears the key words, he will fall into hypnosis."
After speaking, Team Leader Shao stopped talking.
I was just about to ask, but Guan Zengbin grabbed my arm.
The head nurse urged: "What do you guys want to do, just ask if you want to, and nothing will happen. I won't go up, but if something really happens, there is an emergency button outside each corridor. When the time comes, the security guards will They will all be alerted and go to help."
The few of us nodded, and Team Leader Shao said, "Wu Meng, you go in. I'll watch the surveillance here, and we must put safety first."
In fact, I came to this mental hospital, on the one hand, to find out the mentality of the murderer from the mental state of these mental patients, and on the other hand, to find out the meanings represented by those English letters. Gu Chen's words reminded me that I don't know if they will understand these things.
The three of us walked in for a distance, and Gu Chen asked, "What's the matter with Yang Xiaojuan? Why do you seem to be a little secretive?"
Guan Zengbin glanced back and saw Team Leader Shao standing in the distance, and then whispered: "Yang Xiaojuan is Team Leader Shao's girlfriend and a well-known female forensic doctor. The team established ten years ago, Team Shao Chief, Yan Junde, Sister Mary, and Sister Xiaojuan have solved many big cases."
She pulled her face again, and said with some sadness: "About seven years ago, during an operation, Yang Xiaojuan was shot and became a vegetable. Because of this incident, she was disbanded for a while. That operation can be described as It was a complete victory, but only one person ran away, a woman named Zhao Mingkun."
Hearing the name Zhao Mingkun, my expression changed slightly and my heart trembled, but I still didn't say anything. Regarding Zhao Mingkun's matter, I have only heard the second half, but I have never heard the first half. I only know that Zhao Mingkun is Shi Huacheng's adopted daughter, and has committed many crimes with Shi Huacheng, and the purpose of Team Leader Shao's establishment of the special operations team this time is also to catch this fish that slipped through the net.
But now that I heard the first half of Guan Zengbin, I really want to know more about it.
And Guan Zengbin lived up to everyone's expectations and continued: "Sister Juanjuan was blocked by Team Leader Shao at the time, and Shi Huacheng did it, and she is still being imprisoned."
"Imprisoned?" Gu Chen didn't know Shi Huacheng, and he didn't have much contact with Team Leader Shao. He said, "What kind of identity is he, and he has embarked on this road! He should be killed!"
Guan Zengbin shook his head and said: "Of course they have their considerations for this matter, but the living Shi Huacheng is far more useful than the dead one. There are still many things that have not been explained at that time, and there are still many clues that can be dug deeper. It is far from that simple. , I'm afraid, besides Zhao Mingkun, there are other people outside."
I suddenly wanted to see what kind of person this Shi Huacheng was. I heard from Team Leader Shao that Shi Huacheng was on this road to save his little daughter. So where did Shi Huacheng's youngest daughter go, and was it saved in the end
"I've been lying down for seven years." Guan Zengbin walked in front of the two of us alone, and said in a low voice: "Until now, Sister Juanjuan has not woken up. Team leader Shao can't let go of this piece for so many years." Heart demon, that's why he must catch Zhao Mingkun, it can be regarded as an explanation for what happened back then."
I suddenly realized a problem, and said, "No, Guan Zengbin, if sister Juanjuan has been in a coma for seven years, but you are only nineteen years old this year, you were a twelve-year-old girl seven years ago, how can you You may have heard Yang Xiaojuan's lecture on hypnosis."
When Gu Chen heard what I said, he also asked.
Guan Zengbin stood where he was.
When she turned her head, tears were streaming down her face, and she said, "Yes, because my grandma and Yang Xiaojuan's mother are sisters, so in terms of seniority, I should call Yang Xiaojuan an aunt. And Team Leader Shao is actually my uncle."
Guan Zengbin continued: "When I was young, I often ran around with my aunt. On that day, I listened to my aunt's report meeting. That is, from that day on, I determined to be a top forensic doctor, so that the deceased can be redressed and the matter settled. A truth. So seven years later, I joined the special operations team without hesitation, and I must catch Zhao Mingkun who is still at large! Give my aunt who is still sleeping an explanation."
It was the first time I saw Guan Zengbin cry like this, there was no image, but it was also silent. The aunt Yang Xiaojuan must have played an important role in her life. Guan Zengbin will never compromise on this matter. And I am the one who let Zhao Mingkun go once with my own hands. It's hard for me to imagine how Guan Zengbin, who pretended nothing happened in front of us, wanted to kill Zhao Mingkun the moment he saw her.
But for the sake of the whole plan, she endured it, but Zhao Mingkun ran away.
I suddenly realized that everyone is acting. No matter what you see her from the outside, there are always many sides you have never seen, which are deeply hidden in her heart. Maybe it's because she spent a long time with us, or maybe seeing Team Leader Shao's sadness, she thought of her aunt.
She told us her deepest secret, which means she trusts us both very much.
And me, how should I choose? If there is another chance, will I stand by Guan Zengbin's side, or will I let go of Zhao Mingkun who has deeply resonated with me, who may be the only one in this world who understands me
