The Fallen Merman - Chap 56
The white walls around the single ward were splattered with dazzling blood, the bed was almost stained with dirty blood from white to red, the trash can in the corner was poured, and discarded ampoules and medicine boxes were scattered inside, and a corpse was twisted. The ground and the **** nest together.
Everything indicated that there had just been a fierce fight in this locked room. At first glance, the fatal wound of the corpse was the bullet hole in the temple, but the white and blue hospital gown he was wearing had been stained with blood beyond recognition. It wasn’t exactly bleeding from a gunshot wound to the head.
Upon closer inspection, the skin on his body was all festered, and the blood leaked from under the skin. His face was completely festered, and his original appearance could not be seen. His eyes were still wide open, and the eyes of the dead eyes had all turned red at this time. The pupils disappeared, and the most terrifying thing was his mouth. The corners of his mouth rose abnormally, almost reaching to the base of his ears. With the festering and bleeding lips, it was like the smiley face makeup painted by a circus clown.
This highly decomposed state makes it hard to believe that the corpse had only been dead for three minutes.
The firefly omega was panting violently, leaning against the hospital bed, holding a pistol in his hand.
They originally escorted the doctors from the Alliance Medical Association to rescue the medical staff at Enxi Hospital, but they were attacked by a large number of crazy infected patients in the middle, and they were scattered and scattered. The only people who could temporarily hide were these four unlocked wards.
“Don’t be afraid, Doctor Han, I will protect you.” Ying tried her best to calm herself down, and turned to ask the alpha in the white coat, “Are you injured?”
Besides Yingying, there was only one living person in the room, and that was the doctor standing in the center of the ward with one hand in his white coat pocket and carrying a small silver lockbox.
The doctor placed the lockbox in his hand lightly on the ground. He wore a pair of gold-wire glasses, and the thin chain dangling slightly swayed with his movements. The outline of this alpha’s face is slightly thinner, the short flaxen hair is slightly curly, and the bones are noble and attractive.
Han Xingqian didn’t answer, but went straight to the corpse, put on gloves to check the state of the corpse, and recorded the results on the notepad in his pocket.
Although he didn’t respond, Ying still felt a gentle comforting pheromone in the air, and his body suddenly felt much more comfortable.
While Dr. Han was obsessed with examining the corpse, Ying checked his backpack. There was still a day’s worth of water and food in it. In addition to the pistol, he also carried a micro-chunk on his back, and there were only 100 rounds of ammunition left.
He picked up Wei Chong cautiously, leaned quietly to the door, and peeked out through the glass window above the ward door.
The lights in the depths of the corridor flickered, and a shadow walked slowly with stiff steps.
Ying’s hand holding Wei Chong was shaking, but she didn’t even dare to swallow a mouthful of saliva, she held her breath and stared at the man.
The man’s face was gray and pale, with a layer of dead white, and he was also wearing the same blue and white hospital uniform as the corpse in the ward. The infusion needle was still stuck on the back of his left hand.
The patient walked to the door of Ying’s ward and stopped.
Ying desperately covered her mouth, held her breath, and tried to calm her heartbeat, but she didn’t dare to close her eyes, for fear of missing the patient’s sudden attack.
The patient’s eyes were full of red, but the black pupils had not completely disappeared. He slowly stopped, glanced at his empty hanging bottle, adjusted the position of the hanging bottle, turned around slowly, and went back to the way he came. gone back.
After the patient disappeared from sight, Yingying dared to take a deep breath.
After the examination, Dr. Han took off his gloves and looked back at Yingying who was trembling all over. The corners of his lips curled up in a mocking arc: “Don’t force it, just rest for a while.”
“We don’t have enough water and food.” Ying anxiously tried to open the locked ward door with a tactical dagger, “We have to get out of here as soon as possible, I made a note of the route when we escaped in, there is an elevator for surgery at the far east of the hospital. , we can try to go to the top of the building. Now the helicopters of the pbb troops should be searching in a carpet over Enxi City. As long as we can get to the top of the building, we can leave. When I contact the headquarters, I will ask them to send someone to rescue others. ”
However, the ward lock requires an access card, and there is basically no place to open the lock except for a card slot.
Han Xingqian was noncommittal, went around the ward to check the contents, and found that the computer on the table was in a state of automatic black screen, and the screen lit up with a slight movement of the mouse.
This is a monitor with a total of four screens.
“Come and take a look at this.” Han Xingqian called Ying with his hands on the table.
There are numbers in the upper left corner of each screen: Ward 1, Ward 2, Ward 3, Ward 4.
In the picture of Ward 1, there is a patient sitting in a daze on a hospital bed, holding an IV pole in his hand, and is taking off his shoes. There is also a computer beside his hospital bed. It can be seen that the computer also displays four pictures, but he can’t see what is on the picture at all.
Ying was startled and whispered, “He is the patient I saw just now.”
In Ward 2, there are meerkat and Nile crocodile, who are also special trainees. They are protecting the doctors of Enxi Hospital. In fact, the installation position of this camera is very strange. It seems to be installed under the bed. Because they live and eat at the training base, they are very familiar with each other, so Yingying can identify them by their feet and trouser legs.
Han Xingqian narrowed his eyes: “Wait a minute, there seems to be a painting stuck to the bottom of the bed.”
Because the camera was installed under the bed, the picture was a little dim. After careful identification, the two determined that it was an enlarged playing card, and it was the kid in the joker.
The picture in Ward 3 is Ying and Han Xingqian around the computer.
Ying thought for a while: “So we are in Ward 3?”
Ward No. 4 has a relatively high viewing angle. There are clownfish and several doctors from the Alliance Medical Association. There is also a computer in front of the hospital bed. Due to the different viewing angles, it can be vaguely recognized that their second and third pictures are under the bed of the ward. painting, but it is completely unclear what is on the painting.
Ying thought for a while, then lay down on the ground and tried hard to see if there was anything stuck under the bed in her room.
Doctor Han asked, “Is there any?”
Ying replied: “Yes, yes, but it’s too dark inside. I can’t see what is being painted. There are iron bars welded between the legs of the bed, so I can’t climb in.”
Han Xingqian calmly watched the four surveillance screens, and suddenly saw the doctors in Ward 4 gathered together in front of the computer in his room.
Immediately afterward, the two special trainees in Ward 2 also apparently noticed the surveillance on the computer, and they could see their feet gathered in front of the computer desk through the cracks in the bed.
“It seems that everyone has noticed the computer monitoring.” Han Xingqian thought for a while, “Don’t move.”
Yingying was stunned for a while, and the hand looking for the drawer stopped.
Han Xingqian stared at the surveillance screen of Ward 4 and walked back and forth around the hospital bed.
It can be vaguely seen from the monitoring screen that although the third screen on the computer in Ward 4 shows a very blurred bottom of the bed, the feet of people walking beside the bed can be identified. So Han Xingqian speculated that the four pictures in each ward were arranged according to the four wards 1, 2, 3, and 4, which means that people in ward 4 could clearly see the patterns at the bottom of beds 2 and 3.
It is reasonable to speculate that each ward can see the pattern under the bed of the ward with the serial number in front of it, but except for the bottom of the bed in Ward 1, because they are in Ward 3 and Ward 4 displayed on the monitor, they cannot see it. Under the bed in Ward 1.
However, this conjecture is of little use.
Ying asked cautiously, “Can I speak, Doctor Han?”
Han Xingqian looked at him, Ying was holding a box of playing cards from the drawer of the computer desk.
“It seems to be empty inside,” Ying said to himself, and opened the poker box, there were only two jokers, a big ghost card and a small ghost card.
The two cards are not as thin as regular playing cards, they are about as thick as an ID card.
“Ah, it’s the access card.” Ying took the playing card to the card slot of the door lock and compared it, the size was just right, but she didn’t know which one to insert, “Is it a big ghost or a little ghost?”
“Don’t mess with it.” Han Xingqian picked up the poker box and looked at it. The decoration of the box was very simple, with a smiling clown on one side and a death clown with eyes turned into two crosses on the other side. The clown was covered by a diamond-shaped skull symbol. .
As a doctor, Han Xingqian is very familiar with this symbol, which stands for “poisonous gas”.
Han Xingqian put down the playing card box and suddenly noticed the mouse pad.
The mouse pad is also divided into four grids, and two big ghost cards and two small ghost cards are drawn in cross-displacement.
Han Xingqian opened the notepad and wrote two lines with a pen: “It is reasonable to speculate that the pattern on the bottom of the bed in Ward 3 where we are located is the pattern of the access card, and in two of the four wards, the pattern on the bottom of the bed in two wards is a ghost. , the other two are little ghosts, if the wrong card is inserted, poison gas will be released in the room and we will be poisoned to death.”
Firefly said weakly: “Isn’t that there is still a 50 chance of being right? What if I get it right?”
Han Xingqian laughed angrily: “I want to record this for you, Instructor Bai.”
Not knowing the exact location of the camera, he picked up the mouse pad and playing card box, held them up and walked around the room, then dipped them under the bed and shook them.
It can be seen from the surveillance that the people in the other rooms were attracted by his actions. Several people in Ward 4 began to rummage through the drawers, and Ward 2 could also see from the bed crevices that they were moving and began to search. thing.
Soon people in other wards also found these things, and tried to use the camera to indicate that they had found them.
Ying looked puzzled: “What is Doctor Han doing?”
Han Xingqian: “I have to make sure that everyone knows that everyone already knows the rules.”
Firefly: “Dolls are forbidden.”
Han Xingqian was not in a hurry. He sat on the hospital bed and closed his eyes to rest. After waiting for about fifteen minutes, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the monitor. There was almost no change in the picture, so he said softly, “We are a big ghost.”
Ying was stunned, holding a big ghost access card, hesitantly dare not insert it.
“Really are you sure about me”
The micro communicator in the ear suddenly made a weak electric sound. The communicator has been disabled since it came in, and finally there was a sign of the signal being restored. Firefly jumped up happily, and then calmed down to adjust the channel.
“Hey, what stupid child can you hear me?”
Bai Chunian’s leisurely voice came into his ears, Ying’s eyes became wet all of a sudden, and he choked and replied, “Instructor, I, I can hear, I’m Ying”
Bai Chunian tsk tsk to comfort: “Don’t cry, I’m here. I strengthened the signal, but I can only contact you at the moment. How is the situation now?”
Ying dragged a cry to Bai Chunian about the current situation, including the details of surveillance and ghost card access cards.
Bai Chunian hummed: “I’ve been waiting for fifteen minutes, of course I’m playing a big trick, idiot.”
Ying was stunned and looked at Doctor Han in disbelief. Han Xingqian shrugged lightly and lifted the lockbox on the ground: “Get ready to go.”
The instructor’s words were unconditionally trusted, and she picked up the big ghost card and inserted it into the door lock. The door lock lights up green and opens automatically.
“Why, why?” Ying asked in a daze.
“I’ll explain it to you later, take Brother Han to the elevator for surgery first, and meet me at the top of the building. Come on, it’s raining a bit outside, so I’m wearing less clothes.” Bai Chunian joked lazily, “Long snacks. Well, my brother Han’s hands are precious, so protect me.”
“Doctor Han, follow me closely, and hide behind me if you are in danger.” Ying took a deep breath, opened the door, and handed the pistol on her belt to Dr. Han. She turned around and instructed, “I have already helped you. Well loaded, don’t let the fire go away, just shoot at the key when you are in danger.”
Han Xingqian raised his eyebrows: “Okay.”
As soon as they walked out of the door, the door behind them locked automatically, Ying tried to push it, but couldn’t push it anymore.
If you want to go to the elevator for surgery, you have to pass through Wards 2 and 1. Both of them know that there is still an infected patient sitting in Ward 1 like a ticking time bomb.
Just when Yingying wanted to change a circuitous route, the patient in Ward 1 with an IV pole came out of the door and walked towards them slowly.
“Why is he here again.” Ying immediately raised the muzzle at the patient nervously.
“Wait a minute, I want to observe the sample.” Han Xingqian pressed Ying’s shoulder, “He is different from other infected patients, why does he not look aggressive, and his expression does not turn into an exaggerated smile like a clown.”
The two stepped back a safe distance, and the patient who was dragging the infusion stand slowly walked to the door of Ward 3 where they had just come out, stopped, then slowly raised his head and glanced at his empty hanging bottle. Adjusted the position of the bottle, turned around blankly, and went back to the way he came.
But this time there was a bit of water seepage from the ceiling, and the water droplets made a small pool on the floor.
When the patient returned, he stepped on the stagnant water and fell on his buttocks.
Fireflies are stupid.
The patient was sitting on the ground, suddenly turned his head and looked at Ying and Han Xingqian. Suddenly, his mouth grinned strangely to the base of his ears, revealing an exaggerated smile like a circus clown. There was extravasation of blood, and the last black eye kernel in the red eyeball disappeared, and then the patient released the infusion stand, opened the mouth of the blood basin and rushed towards the two of them.
“Dr. Han’s Dangerous” Ying’s first reaction was to push Han Xingqian far away, while he met the **** infected patient by himself. The patient frantically bit Ying’s muzzle, not letting go even if he was shot by bullets.
With the sound of a pistol, the infected patient was shot in the head, and his body froze and fell.
Han Xingqian held Ying’s shoulder indifferently, retracted the pistol, and inserted it back into the gun belt around Ying’s waist.
Ying rubbed her flushed face as she walked, and the communicator rang again. Han Xingqian took off his communicator and put it on his ear: “Hey, it’s me.”
Bai Chunian: “Aw, handsome guy, are you afraid? You want to kill me.”
Han Xingqian: “What do you know about this infectious disease?”
Bai Chunian: “The circulating virus, the j1 ability of Experiment 408 Sameer, is divided into two stages, the early stage of infection and the late stage of infection.”
“The infected person in the early stage of infection will repeat what he did at a certain period of time before his death. If no one interrupts him, he will continue to do this thing in a loop, when he realizes that what he is doing is different from what he just did. In an instant, it will enter the late stage of infection.”
“You have also seen it in the late stage of infection, that’s what it looks like.”
