Dr. Gao said that the fifth patient was assassinated by a lunatic at 12:52 in the evening, and it was exactly 0:51 when Chen Ge stood up from his seat.
The pointer passed one number after another, and the sound of the ticking and the beating of the heart overlapped.
Everyone looked at Chen Ge, and it seemed that what he did next would have an impact on everyone.
The memory in his mind gradually became blurred with the ticking of the mechanical watch. Chen Ge wanted to control his body, but the more he wanted to do it, the more uncontrollable his body became.
Blue blood vessels appeared on the back of his hand, Chen Ge's lowered head slowly lifted, and his scarlet eyes looked at Patient No. 5.
Chen Ge was on the verge of losing control, and Dr. Gao was also staring at him.
As a doctor, Dr. Gao not only did not stop Chen Ge at this time, but also took out something wrapped in newspaper from his pocket.
He put the thing on the table in front of Chen Ge, and when the thing touched the table, he could hear a crisp sound.
The newspaper contained some kind of hard object.
Time is still passing, Chen Ge's consciousness continues to become blurred, and he is now very glad that he did not take Dr. Gao's medicine.
If he swallowed the medicine with black silk threads at this time, under the stimulation of the medicine, he would not be able to resist it at all.
The fingertips moved slowly around the table, and Chen Ge held the newspaper.
The five fingers were tightly closed, blood flowed out of Chen Ge's palm, and the thing wrapped in the newspaper was very sharp.
The blood soaked the newspaper, turning it into deep black. Chen Ge clutched the contents of the newspaper tightly, and a large amount of blood flowed out from his palm. The strange thing was that he couldn't feel the pain.
"Why is my body reacting like this? I'm not on medication, but I still can't control myself. Is it because of Dr. Gao's watch?"
The mechanical watch on the table, the hands are constantly moving.
At 0:51:50, 0:51:51, the ticking sound seemed to be getting faster and faster, Chen Ge's heartbeat also became rapid, his chest heaved violently, and his face began to emerge Tiny black blood vessels.
Fifty-four seconds, fifty-five seconds, fifty-six seconds!
The hand that clenched the newspaper kept shaking, Chen Ge's body leaned forward, and the figure of Patient No. 5 was reflected in his pupils.
Fifty-seven seconds, fifty-eight seconds!
At fifty-one minutes and fifty-nine seconds, Chen Ge held up the thing wrapped in the newspaper, but when he wanted to stab Patient No. 5 with a sharp weapon, there was a sudden knock on the door of the ward.
The knock on the door disrupted the ticking of the hands of the watch. For the first time, Dr. Gao's icy face changed, and he frowned slightly.
"Boom!"
Thunder roared outside the window, and it didn't take long for pea-sized raindrops to fall on the window, as if they were about to pierce the glass.
The rainstorm swept across the night sky, and various sounds entered Chen Ge's ears, and he finally controlled his body.
Dr. Gao picked up his watch and glanced at the time, then he put the watch on the table, turned his head and stared at Patient No. 1 again: "At twelve fifty-two in the evening, you heard a knock on the door of your ward. , you suspect that the person who has been peeping and stalking you is outside the door at this time, and you walked over and opened the door."
"Impossible, he can't be outside!" Dr. Fang stood up from his seat, he stood at the door of the ward, and his trembling hand held the door.
Uneasy and frightened, Dr. Fang hesitated for a long time, and then opened the door of the ward with force!
"Boom!"
A sound of thunder rang in the ears, and the patients and doctors in the house all looked at the corridor outside the door.
There was no light in the dark corridor, and the doors of all the wards were tightly closed, as if they were the only people left in the entire hospital at this time.
"I remember that the lights at the corner of the corridor were originally on." Chen Ge was slowly regaining control of his body. He moved his arms and hid his hand holding the newspaper behind him.
Instead of a knife, the newspaper contained a sharp-edged mirror fragment.
No one noticed Chen Ge's small movements, and everyone's attention was on the corridor.
After the door of the ward was opened again, the hospital outside seemed to be different from before. There was a completely different feeling. If I had to describe it, the hospital at this time was closer to the hospital in Chen Ge's nightmare.
Outside the hospital, there were lightning and thunder, violent storms, but the inside of the hospital was so quiet that even a needle fell to the ground could be heard clearly.
The dark corridor seemed to have no end, and the white walls looked more like the pale face of a dead man.
"At 12:53 in the evening, you saw the corridor outside the ward. There was no one on the corridor. The hospital that was once familiar is now a little strange." Dr. Gao stood up from the seat, he turned his watch Put it on your wrist: "You are very scared, and there is a voice in your heart that constantly reminds you, don't leave the room, don't be curious, take a step forward, and you may never be able to come back."
As soon as Doctor Gao finished speaking, the sound of heavy objects being dragged suddenly came from the empty and gloomy corridor, as if the boatman had pulled a huge dead fish out of the water.
Everyone was attracted by the sudden sound, and everyone looked towards the corner of the corridor. The sound was getting closer and closer, until finally, a human head appeared on the ground in the corner.
"Zhang Jingjiu?" Seeing the head, the name immediately popped into Chen Ge's mind.
After entering the hospital, Zhang Jingjiu reminded himself twice. The first time was in the garden, and Zhang Jingjiu shouted at him.
Zhang Jingjiu was also severely punished for this. He was put into the intensive care unit on the fifth floor by the doctor, and he seemed to have suffered various tortures.
The second reminder was when Chen Ge and Zuo Han went to check in the middle of the night, Zhang Jingjiu opened his lips, and he said the word boss while he was dying.
Chen Ge can be sure that Zhang Jingjiu must have something to do with him, definitely his former friend.
At this moment, most of Zhang Jingjiu's head appeared in the corner of the corridor, and Chen Ge couldn't sit still.
The wall covered Zhang Jingjiu's body. Chen Ge didn't know whether Zhang Jingjiu was lying on the ground and lost his ability to move, or that he only had a head left.
"12:54 in the evening..." Dr. Gao's eyes swept over all the patients in the room: "All of you have seen the murderer, and now there are two choices in front of you, kill the murderer, or be killed by the murderer die."
After saying this, Dr. Gao began to observe the patient's reaction.
"Everyone saw the murderer? Is the murderer in this room?" Patient No. 2 was the first to return to normal. The middle-aged man seemed to have gotten rid of the effects of the medicine. His eyes gradually returned to normal, and his bloodshot eyes died. Staring at the head in the corner of the corridor.
The second patient who returned to normal was Patient No. 5. There was no hostility in his eyes when he looked at Chen Ge, only fear: "Kill the murderer? Or be killed by the murderer? Such questions give us no choice at all."
"Are you sure this is treating us now?" Chen Ge held the fragment of the mirror wrapped in the newspaper, and he pointed to the door: "What happened in the ward is a story you made up, but there seems to be a problem outside the ward, you guys You can see the head at the corner of the corridor, someone is really hurt!"
Chen Ge wanted to save Zhang Jingjiu, although he forgot what relationship he had with Zhang Jingjiu in his memory.
"Do you really think what I said just now are all made up stories?" Dr. Gao looked down at his watch: "Don't you often tell me stories you made up? Do you think what you said is true, Or fake?"
Chen Ge didn't know what Dr. Gao wanted to express. He clenched the mirror fragment in his hand, ready to walk out of the ward to check.
"I'll go with you." The first patient, No. 2, who returned to normal, also stood up. He looked old and tired, but his eyes were extremely sharp. He seemed to be engaged in criminal investigation before he was hospitalized.
"Think about it before you make a decision. After all, you only have one life, and the reality is not a story you made up." After Dr. Gao finished speaking, he stopped talking.
Chen Ge was worried about Zhang Jingjiu, so he supported the wall and moved towards the door little by little.
Although Patient No. 2 decided to go out with Chen Ge, he kept a certain distance from Chen Ge and seemed to be a little afraid of Chen Ge.
The two walked out of the room one after the other, and after leaving the ward, they found that something was wrong.
It was so dark in the hospital that not only the third ward, but the lights in the entire hospital seemed to be out.
"There is a backup power supply in the hospital. If it is due to an accidental power outage, at least the emergency lights should be on at this time." Patient No. 2 walked in front with a serious expression: "It's so strange, I've walked through this corridor many times, why? Feeling very depressed today?"
Chen Ge didn't talk to Patient No. 2. He vaguely felt that Patient No. 2 was familiar, but in this situation, it's best not to believe anyone.
Dragging his leg wrapped in plaster, Chen Ge and Patient No. 2 came to the corner of the corridor. When he saw Zhang Jingjiu's body, his face instantly turned gloomy.
Zhang Jingjiu was lying on the corner of the corridor, his arms and legs were broken, forming a very strange posture.
The loose hospital gown could not cover his injuries at all. This poor guy was swollen all over, and pinholes were clearly visible on the surface of his skin.
"Zhang Jingjiu?" Chen Ge called out Zhang Jingjiu's name softly. Perhaps Chen Ge's voice awakened Zhang Jingjiu's memory. He struggled to open his eyes and opened his lips, as if to say run away.
Holding Zhang Jingjiu's swollen hand, Chen Ge wanted to lift Zhang Jingjiu up, but he himself had a plaster cast on one leg and couldn't do it at all.
"I'll do it." Patient No. 2 wanted to carry Zhang Jingjiu on his back, but he grabbed Zhang Jingjiu's arm and was trying hard when he suddenly found that Zhang Jingjiu's abdomen and chest were covered with blood, and the hospital gown was soaked.
"Blood?" Patient No. 2 immediately tore off Zhang Toast's shirt: "The wound is very small and deep, similar to a dagger stabbing, but the edges of the wound are very irregular, and the five wounds maintain a fixed distance. hurt?"
Due to professional reasons, the first thing that came to mind in Patient No. 2 was all kinds of murder weapons. Chen Ge stood beside him and stretched out his hand, and his face became even more ugly: "No. 2, do you think this wound looks like it? Five fingers caught in the flesh?"
It's okay that Chen Ge didn't say anything. After he finished speaking, No. 2's look at him changed.
Very strange, Chen Ge's finger spacing and wound spacing completely match, in other words, Chen Ge's fingers can perfectly pierce Zhang Jingjiu's wound, and it feels as if the wound was left by Chen Ge.
"What's the matter?" Dr. Sun was the third person to leave the ward, and the other patients followed, and Dr. Gao was the last to leave the ward.
Strange to say, after Dr. Gao left the ward, he kept looking at his watch, as if something special would happen at a certain time.
"Someone is injured! He lost a lot of blood, and we have to send him to the emergency room immediately!" Patient No. 2 simply bandaged the wound: "The wound is on the abdomen and chest, so I can't carry it on my back, so hurry up and find a stretcher! Who will come and help me with it? Follow him!"
"The emergency room is in Ward 4. I'll take you there." Dr. Sun didn't talk nonsense. He asked Patient No. 5 and Patient No. 2 to lift Zhang Jingjiu and lead the way.
Life was at stake, everyone was anxious to save Zhang Jingjiu, and ran very fast, Chen Ge, who had bad legs, slowly fell behind the team.
He and Dr. Gao walked side by side. When he slowed down, Dr. Gao also slowed down. The other party seemed to intend to walk last.
"Doctor Gao, what's the matter with tonight's treatment?"
The original treatment was in the ward, but as accidents continued to occur, the treatment seemed to be out of control.
Chen Ge is not quite sure now, whether what he is going through is Dr. Gao's treatment plan, or whether there is really a big problem in the hospital, after all, the hospital was not peaceful in the past few nights.
No matter what Chen Ge said, Dr. Gao didn't speak. After he left the ward, he didn't say a word except occasionally looking down at his watch. Instead, Dr. Sun suddenly became active, and it felt as if the restraint that had been suppressing him had been loosened.
"Doctor Gao?" Chen Ge gently tugged on Dr. Gao's arm, and the other party raised his emotionless face and gave Chen Ge a cold look.
The sound of tick-tick-tick echoed in his ears, and even if it was stormy outside the hospital, the sound of the mechanical watch moving could still be heard clearly in Chen Ge's ears.
"The sound of this watch moving must have some meaning. I will find a way to grab Doctor Gao's watch later."
Chen Ge walked beside Dr. Gao, and he secretly stared at the patient in the distance: "According to the story that Dr. Gao told in the ward just now, I have a high probability of being the murderer, which means that in Dr. Gao's story, I will Kill other patients."
"The hospital keeps trying to make me kill, and it's still going to kill certain people. What good is it for them? Are they trying to make me feel guilty?"
With a hint of doubt in his eyes, Chen Ge looked at Dr. Sun again: "What's wrong with Dr. Sun? Why does he help me? If the hospital wants me to feel guilty, it will definitely let me kill the people close to me. If this Dr. Sun has a good relationship with me, then why is my other friend a patient, but he has become a doctor?"
Chen Ge couldn't understand it at all, and he didn't dare to think deeply to prevent his previous memories from being touched.
"Forget it, take a step, take a look."
Passing the corner of the corridor, Chen Ge silently glanced back at the "treatment room" behind him. There seemed to be seven people sitting in the room they had just left.
