"No." Dong Zheng lied.
The doctor nodded and scribbled on the board: "The reduction of delusions and hallucinations is a good sign. Your symptoms of schizophrenia have been greatly improved compared to when you were first admitted to the hospital. If you continue to cooperate with the treatment, you will be discharged from the hospital in a short time. already."
From the doctor's few words, Dong Zheng introduced the origin of all his previous experiences. The first escape from the imperial city came from the dragon boat on the bedside table who did not know where it was. Maybe it was a gift from a friend when he came to visit; the story of the western cowboy From the delusions and whispers that the clinical delusional youth would talk to him every day;
What about in the hotel? He saw Cui Zuojing in the mirror, the room behind the boy and the corner of the corridor were burnt to a mess, but he could still recognize that it was the same hotel as him. Cui Zuojing took the lighter he gave the girl before, What does the ciphertext of "the truth is false" and the terrifying twisted figure represent
In the end, Cui Zuojing went straight through the space through the mirror surface of the two palms facing each other, and where is he now
Dong Zheng didn't know that his sense of the young man was still the same as before. It was as close as in the prisoner's space, but he couldn't see the other party and couldn't call.
"By the way, can you remember what happened before?" The doctor put on the pen cap, looked at Dong Zheng, and said, "Remember your girlfriend who was burned to death?"
Burned girlfriend? Dong Zheng's eyebrows moved slightly, but he didn't show anything strange. He shook his head and frowned appropriately in confusion, "What are you talking about? I have a girlfriend? Is there such a good thing?"
"Mental illness is not a protective umbrella for a murderer. If you really kill someone, it may be impossible to escape the legal trial by taking advantage of the illness. The police will investigate everything." The doctor sneered, he seemed to have seen through Dong Zheng's already. In his heart, he leaned down, stared into his eyes and said, "Can't you remember how that fire started?"
Even though all kinds of possible speculations had already surfaced in his heart due to the doctor's words, Dong Zheng's expression did not change as he said, "I really don't know what you are talking about."
The doctor wanted to say something, but the door of the ward was suddenly slammed open, and the young man who was focusing on reading in the clinic screamed in fright and shrank to the foot of the bed. A group of nurses poured into the room, they grabbed the doctor's arm and white coat, ignoring the doctor's call, and pulled him away from Dong Zheng.
The sound of the doctor's struggle and the messy footsteps of the nurses gradually disappeared in the corridor outside. The head nurse smiled at Dong Zheng, who was a little surprised, took the medicine bottle on the bedside table in his hand and put it in his pocket, saying, "This patient When you are sick, you like to pretend to be a doctor to treat other people, and everyone in the hospital has been deceived by him. You just came here, you may not know very well, and you should not believe what he says when you see him in the future."
The head nurse then left, and she closed the door of the ward. After a short silence, the young man slowly sat down from the corner of the bed again. He said to the thoughtful Dong Zheng, "You better not believe the words of those doctors and nurses."
Dong Zheng turned his head to look at him. The young man wore glasses and looked unremarkable, but even in the blue and white striped hospital gown, he had a scholarly quality from the inside out: "Why?"
"The world is crazy, and the lunatic manages the insane asylum." The young man said seriously, "This is a sentence in my favorite game, and this hospital, just like the words say. The patients unite one day, they Attacked all the doctors and nurses, and repeatedly brainwashed them, making them believe that they were the patients of the hospital. The equipment warehouses locked underground will never be seen again.”
"So if you say that, you were a doctor too?"
"Yes, I used to be the doctor here. The head nurse who was talking to you just now is a patient I treated. She has seven personalities, and she insists that one of them hides after killing the other. on others."
Dong Zheng: "Then why don't you expose them?"
"Why should I expose it?" The young man asked him back, "I have someone to take care of me now, I lie in bed every day, read a book, and live a good life in the sun. You don't know that when I was a doctor, I was exhausted every day for those patients. , now that they are normal in their own way, why should I ruin this hard-earned achievement?"
The young man smiled and said, "If you don't believe it, go to the underground equipment room and have a look. The rest of my colleagues are locked there. You won't doubt me if you see them."
After all, the young man looked at the book again and ignored Dong Zheng.
Dong Zheng was skeptical. He had learned some polygraph methods from Fu Zhe, but now he can't tell who is telling the truth. All of their behaviors are full of loopholes, but because of this, all absurd behaviors become the most ridiculous. Good cover up.
In other words, the doctors, nurses, and the young man next to the bed, none of them are right.
It seems that he can only go to the equipment warehouse to have a look. Dong Zheng lifted the quilt on his body, and the needle on the back of his hand was no longer bleeding. He thought of the doctor's questioning about him. If the previous scene experience is related to the present, the fire It's not necessarily false, or it's possible that because of the fire, he was stimulated a lot to stay in the mental hospital.
What he and Cui Zuojing saw in the hotel before the fire and after the fire, respectively, can be seen as a reappearance of "he" out of regret, or... "he" was really sick, Cui Zuojing Is it a split personality from him
Who knows.
Dong Zheng walked out of the ward. There was no one else in the corridor. He didn't know where to go to the underground equipment room. He could only walk forward aimlessly. He passed a room, and the closed door was suddenly pushed from inside. Kai, a pair of hands stretched out from inside and grabbed Dong Zheng's arm.
He wanted to pull Dong Zheng in, but Dong Zheng's strength was stronger than he thought, and under the conditioned reflex, he stepped back on guard and tried to escape.
When he saw that the person was the "doctor" who was taken away by the nurse before, Dong Zheng frowned, relaxed his body, stopped resisting, and took the initiative to be dragged into the room. He still had something to explore.
The door was closed nervously by the "doctor", as if afraid of being discovered by others. This is a consultation room, which is not large in size. It is used by doctors to inquire and talk to patients to judge the condition. The nurses escaped and hid in here.
The "doctor" stared at Dong Zheng. He was tense to the naked eye, and the twitching muscles on his face were even a little nervous. "Do you really not remember that you have a girlfriend?"
"..." Dong Zheng was silent for a moment, really didn't understand what he wanted to do, and said, "I don't remember."
When his words fell, the "doctor" was still staring at him. A few seconds later, seeing that Dong Zheng's expression did not change as he pretended to be, the "doctor" stepped back and distanced himself from Dong Zheng, rubbed his temples and sighed.
The nurse pushed the door behind Dong Zheng and entered, and two male nurses grabbed Dong Zheng's arms and restrained him irresistibly.
After the "doctor" sat down on the table, he took out a file from the cabinet, recorded it on it, and said to the nurses, "The condition is still not getting better, let's increase the treatment."
Is he really a doctor? ! Are the previous behaviors, including making yourself think that you are a "fake doctor", all to test your own situation, and are they deliberately performed
Even if the physical skills have been trained very well, Dong Zheng can't ensure that he will retreat under the attack of two strong male nurses. He has to change his mind temporarily and shout: "I remember! I do have a girlfriend!"
Unexpectedly, a smile appeared on the doctor's face, he stood up, and the two male nurses who restrained Dong Zheng took off the blue and white nurse uniforms on their bodies, revealing the police uniforms inside, violently twisting Dong Zheng's hands To the back, put him in handcuffs:
"You finally admitted that you had an affair with another suspect, Zhou, but the victim found out. During the dispute, you had a physical conflict, and the victim died of a heart attack on the spot. You and Zhou tried to cover up the crime. , lit the crime scene with the lighter obtained from her, trying to cause an accidental death, but unexpectedly it actually caused a fire, causing the innocent family of three in Room 302 to be burned alive."
Dong Zheng: ? ! ? ! ? !
The doctor behind the desk showed him a regretful expression: "I said, it is absolutely impossible to escape legal punishment by pretending to be crazy and selling stupid."
"Wait a minute!" Dong Zheng shouted a second before the handcuffs were put on, "That's not the case! You caught the wrong person!"
Hearing the words, the policeman's hand loosened for a moment. Dong Zheng took the opportunity to pull his hand out, stretched it into the chest pocket of the hospital gown, and pulled out the hard thing inside, and showed it to the policeman without even looking at it.
This thing suddenly appeared in his pocket just now. Dong Zheng took it out first with the mentality of saving his life. He took a closer look and saw his photo and license information above.
"I'm the doctor here. You are all deceived by him. This man is a patient in our hospital and likes to pretend to be a doctor." Dong Zheng pointed to the doctor who was incoherently trying to explain behind the table, and cold sweat broke out unknowingly. Turning his back, he calmly said to the police, "Can I leave now?"
The police were skeptical, and after checking Dong Zheng's medical license, they finally let him go.
Dong Zheng walked out of the consultation room, and he didn't care what happened in the room behind him. The moment he left, the chaotic voice was silent for a moment, the corridor changed, the rooms on both sides disappeared, and only the double doors at the end remained.
A lamp glowed cool white on the ceiling in front of the door, as if some sort of indication.
Footsteps echoed in the empty corridor.
Dong Zheng walked to the door and pushed it away easily.
This is a filing room, with rows of filing cabinets more than two meters high, neatly displayed, filled with folders, and a few spread out on the table in the middle.
Dong Zheng walked over, turned on the lamp, and saw the picture of the head nurse on the file at a glance.
[Name: Bessie Hillman
Occupation: Former hospital head nurse
Tested to have at least seven different personalities, Bessie claims that one escaped her brain after killing the other, and is now unknown.
The escaped personality is extremely aggressive and infectious. Bessie calls it an Oriental teenager who looks about 19 years old and calls himself Cui Zuojing.]
Dong Zheng was stunned.
He then picked up the file below.
[Name: Vincent Campbell
Occupation: Hotel waiter
When a fire broke out in the hotel where he worked, he tried to rescue the guests trapped in room 302 but failed, so he suffered from strong stimulation and became mentally disturbed, so he was advised to receive psychological treatment.
After observation, after being admitted to the hospital, it may be invaded by one of Bessie's personalities, and there are signs of schizophrenia and dual personalities.]
