In fact, the graves that house the dead are not terrible, but the cages that imprison the living are terrible.
In order to investigate the "living human anatomy room" in the isolation ward of the Provincial People's Hospital, the leaders of the Wuhan Military Region had a meeting and agreed to send two captains, Ru Pengfei of the Municipal Fire Brigade and Lu Zhenbo of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Team, to conduct a secret investigation.
Everything in the communication room is normal, and the door leading to the dissection room has disappeared. After breaking the wall, it is a bedroom, and the building ward under the ground requires a special pass to enter.
Ru Pengfei took out a certificate with a green cover, and Dean Qu, Professor Hong and Section Chief Xia agreed to enter.
While leading the way, Director Gong introduced: “This special disease research center was built on the basis of the original Hubei Provincial Epidemic Prevention and Control Center. Vicious weapons such as mustard gas, tear gas, cholera bombs have been developed, but the Japanese army had destroyed all the ammunition and documents before they collapsed!"
There are white tiles on the corridors of the underground research center, and there is a wall lamp every ten meters, but it still gives people a depressed and gloomy feeling.
Director Gong continued to introduce: "At present, there are still 19 AIDS patients and 13 leprosy patients treated here, but these are all secrets of the government and the health department. I hope everyone will not spread out, so as not to cause people to panic!"
Section Chief Xia looked at me, and I hurriedly said, "I am a doctor, and I will never disclose hospital secrets!"
There is also a door at the end of the corridor. After we pass through this door, we have to perform aerosol disinfection. Then enter the research center, where various instruments and experimental equipment are displayed in the hall. Researchers in tight protective suits work in an orderly manner.
Section Chief Xia said: “Every researcher here has his own fingerprint identity. Every time he enters and exits the research center, he has to go through three gates. It is absolutely impossible for outsiders to enter if they have not entered their fingerprints.”
By now it was noon, and these researchers walked out of the hall one after another.
Lu Zhenbo asked Ru Pengfei: "Can we evacuate? I don't think it is possible for the disabled men and women that Doctor Yuan met to escape here!"
Section Chief Xia also said: "Yes, non-researchers can't even pass through the password door at the end of the corridor, let alone break through the fingerprint lock to enter!"
After the two team leaders discussed it, they asked me: "Doctor Yuan, what do you think?"
I replied: "Then is there anyone here on the night shift?"
Director Gong replied: "Yes, in addition to the staff on duty, some researchers like to study alone in the dead of night, so that they will not be disturbed by colleagues!"
Dean Qu also said: "We can call in the staff and researchers on night shift for inquiries!"
Professor Hong said: "Then let's leave here first. It's 12:10 now. Let's go to eat and talk!"
Director Gong was still leading the way, and we returned to the ground.
He introduced as he walked: "When it comes to the infectious disease department, people are very scared. They dare not step into this place or even approach it. In fact, this place is much cleaner than the outside, and the disinfection here is stricter than that in ordinary wards. , As well as the drinking water and meals of the patients and staff, all of which have been sterilized by high temperature!"
At this moment, we heard a stern cry from under our feet, as if an evil spirit from hell came out of the cage.
I was shocked and shivered, and my face changed when I looked at other people.
Dean Qu asked Director Gong: "What's the situation?"
Section Chief Xia hurriedly looked at the place where the sound was coming from, but a researcher hurried over and introduced us: "There is another floor underground. The AIDS and leprosy patients admitted are all underneath. Most of the time they are very Quiet, but a very small number of patients are extremely irritable during meals. This is also normal!"
Lu Zhenbo then asked, "Is it normal? Can you take us to see it?"
The researcher looked towards Dean Qu and Director Gong. After obtaining the consent of the two, he led us through the research center lobby and through a passage to the second basement floor. The layout here is like a prison dormitory. Opposite left and right, the rooms are all iron doors with small door openings, and the walls and objects in the rooms are all rubber products to prevent the patient from committing suicide.
At this time, knocking sounds came from the rooms on both sides of the aisle, and one person yelled, causing everyone to yell.
We seemed to have entered the cage of a beast, the researcher immediately responded loudly: "Don't worry, we have already gone to adjust the food, you wait!"
"The patient gets hungry when it comes to 12 noon, and then waits for the food to arrive. Some patients will yell when they can't wait!" Director Gong introduced.
Lu Zhenbo questioned: "How come the patients here are like prisoners? They are patients and not prisoners, so how can they be detained?"
Section Chief Xia immediately explained: "Captain Lu did not know that the patients here are much more harmful to the society than the prisoners in the prison, especially the AIDS patients. They know that there is no cure for them, and time is running out. It gave rise to the idea of despair and revenge against the society. If they were released, it would be even more powerful than the bacterial weapons released by the Japanese!"
Ru Pengfei said: "Chief Xia, what you said is too exaggerated, right?"
Director Gong responded in a serious manner: "Section Chief Xia did not exaggerate the truth. The people admitted here are still AIDS patients who have been diagnosed, and there are countless carriers hidden in the society. They have infected more people without knowing it. Some people, after knowing that they have been infected with AIDS, spread it crazily to others, even their relatives and friends!"
When he was introducing him, the AIDS patient in the next ward yelled at the doorway: "White ghost, let me go out. You talk nonsense. Believe it or not I will kill you!"
Section Chief Xia hurriedly pulled out the rubber rod from behind his waist, knocked on the iron door, and yelled: "You scare me, you don't want to think about it in your life!"
The AIDS patients in other rooms also made noise, and drove the lepers in the opposite ward to scream.
Professor Hong hurriedly said to Dean Qu: "Let's leave here as soon as possible. When the staff delivering the food arrives, these patients will stop making trouble after they fill their stomachs!"
Ru Pengfei and Lu Zhenbo also responded. This researcher escorted us away. In the lobby, we met a staff member who was pushing a dining car to deliver meals. The director of the palace urged: "Dr. Qian, you go to the patient’s food. Add some sleeping pills to suppress their mania!"
Unexpectedly, the researcher who brought us in was actually a PhD.
After we walked out of the underground research center, we returned to the ground, feeling down. When we returned to the reception room, I saw the humpbacked old man still sitting on the concrete table next to the nursery, waiting for it to fall.
Section Chief Xia asked him: "Old Zhongtou, how do you eat at noon?"
The hunched old man replied: "Wait for the chef inside to deliver the food!"
Director Gong stayed in the isolation ward. Professor Hong and Director Qu led us outside the iron gate. Section Chief Xia introduced: "This old clock is here to clean up the sanitation in the hospital and send a message to the inside. It's been alive in a few years!"
Ru Pengfei and Lu Zhenbo said to Professor Hong and me: "This is the end of today’s investigation. We will immediately return to the city and report the results of the investigation to the higher authorities. Doctor Yuan, you have to be more careful. It is best not to leave the morgue at night. If you are in danger, you can call the police at any time and you can also report to your section chief!"
Section Chief Xia said hurriedly and politely: "The two captains haven't eaten yet, why are they so anxious to go back?" (End of this chapter)
