Chapter 25: Morgue
My eyes widened and I almost thought I was seeing things!
Liu Bin?
It’s really Liu Bin!!
At the door of the morgue, under the dim light, Liu Bin, wearing a black work suit, looked at me gloomily. There was no life on his face.
Cheng Xiaoyan noticed my strangeness and asked in surprise, "Who is he?"
I didn't say anything. My attention was completely drawn to Liu Bin. My heart beat wildly.
"Brother Liu!"
I couldn't help but yelled.
Liu Bin didn't react and continued to look at me expressionlessly.
I couldn't help it any longer, and with a lot of questions in my mind waiting to be answered, I rushed towards him.
When Liu Bin saw me coming over, his face changed and he turned around and slipped into the morgue.
"Zhiyong, where... where are you going?" Cheng Xiaoyan's voice was trembling, and she was obviously a little panicked.
I looked back at her and said, "Go back to Building D. I need to go in for something."
"No, you look weird right now, I can't let you..."
Before she could finish, I turned around impatiently and rushed into the darkness.
I remember when I was chatting with Master Ma, I went in to take a look out of curiosity. In fact, the morgue is not a morgue as soon as you enter. Like Building D, it has a dedicated lounge, toilet, corridor, etc.
Only now, after entering, I found that it was pitch black inside. I coughed twice, and the sensor light on the ceiling lit up for a while, but soon went out again.
At that instant, I saw Liu Bin. He was hunching over and walking into a corner. I hurriedly followed him and called out to him, but he didn't respond. Instead, he ran even faster, as if he was avoiding something.
I had the impression that the morgue was not very big, but as we kept chasing after it, it seemed like we had been running for a very long time.
It was too dark inside and the voice-controlled lights flickered on and off. I didn't dare run too fast, but Liu Bin seemed to be very familiar with the place. He dodged left and right as agile as a rabbit.
"Zhiyong, run slower!"
Behind him was Cheng Xiaoyan's breathless voice.
I stopped and said, "Didn't I tell you to leave?"
"I, I'm worried about you." Cheng Xiaoyan said aggrievedly.
"I don't need you to worry, go, go now!"
I yelled at her with inexplicable impatience. Seeing the girl's eyes turn red, I felt a little soft-hearted, but thinking that Liu Bin was still ahead, I didn't dare to delay and chased after him again.
"You...wait for me!"
Cheng Xiaoyan's voice was filled with tears.
Then, there were the sounds of footsteps chasing after him.
I pretended not to hear it, my eyes fixed on the figure in front of me - Liu Bin.
He paused, as if he had reached the end.
"Brother Liu, don't run away. I have a lot of questions to ask you. Can you tell me?" I didn't get any closer, for fear that he would disappear into thin air like bubbles.
Liu Bin said nothing, just looked at me with a frown.
"Brother Liu, what exactly did those calls you made to me mean? What is the baby boy in black? And who was the person you told me to be careful of?"
"Are you dead or alive?"
After asking a few questions, Liu Bin suddenly turned around, opened an iron door next to him and rushed in.
I'm so angry.
Okay, run!
I want to see where you can run tonight!
I walked quickly to the iron door and looked inside. It was pitch black and I couldn't see anything. A chill ran down my spine and a word immediately popped up in my mind: "Morgue!"
After hesitating for a few seconds, I gritted my teeth and walked through the door.
"Zhiyong, you——"
As the door slammed shut, Cheng Xiaoyan's voice stopped abruptly.
I took a deep breath and looked inside. It was pitch dark, nothing could be seen. I tried to call out "Brother Liu". But no one responded except my own empty echo.
Snap!
I turned on the flashlight on my phone, and the scenery inside immediately became slightly brighter.
The room was not big, only about 30 square meters. The walls were all gray, with holes and many messy graffiti on them . Under the light, three small beds could be seen around them. The beds were covered with white cloths with bulges. I wondered if there were bodies lying inside. To the southwest, there was a row of gray cabinets. On the cabinets, there were locks...
Buzz!
My head suddenly seemed to explode.
My whole body began to tremble uncontrollably!
Suddenly I remembered, wasn’t the picture that appeared on the TV at that time exactly like this?
what happened?
Why was the morgue of Aiken Hospital shown on TV?
I was totally confused and couldn't figure it out no matter how hard I tried.
I searched around with my cell phone but didn't see any sign of Liu Bin. I glanced at the three small beds covered with white cloth, and a bold idea suddenly came to my mind - was Liu Bin lying on one of them?
A strong curiosity drove me to walk over. I breathed softly, my whole body tense like a stone. I finally took a difficult step and walked to one of the cots. With trembling hands, I slowly lifted the white cloth...
Phew~
Fortunately, nothing.
Wiping the cold sweat from my forehead, I walked to the second cot.
Still be cautious and tread carefully on thin ice.
After opening it, a person in white was lying on it.
I took a few steps back and then I could see clearly that it was just a plaster model.
I walked to the third bed. This time I was much calmer and opened it without much hesitation.
"ah--"
When I saw the scene inside, I couldn't help but let out a cry of fear from my throat.
On the third bed, there was a dead body.
Female corpse.
Her area below the neck was covered in blood, half of her face was beaten to pieces, her entire head was like a bloody ball of flesh, her chest was as hard as cold stone, and her eyeballs could no longer be seen, as if they had been dug out by someone. But from this angle, it looked like she was glaring at me viciously.
I was so scared that I almost dropped my phone. I quickly covered it with a white cloth, took a deep breath, and my back was covered in cold sweat.
All three beds were searched, but Liu Bin was not on them.
Could it be that he was lying in the corpse cabinet?
I no longer dared to look for it. Perhaps it was the appearance of the female corpse that made me completely lose the courage that I had accumulated with great difficulty.
Now, I just want to get out of here.
Just as I turned around and walked towards the door, I suddenly saw someone squatting there.
Judging from his figure and blurry facial features, who else could it be but Liu Bin?
"Brother Liu!"
I exclaimed.
"Don't, don't come over here..."
Liu Bin suddenly became very excited, his voice a little hysterical.
"Okay, I won't go over there!" I was afraid that he would run away again, so I quickly took two steps back.
Liu Bin lowered his head, hunched his body, put his hands in his sleeves, squatted on the ground, and shivered very fast, as if he was very cold.
I just looked at him, not daring to move.
Time passed by every second.
I couldn't hold back any longer, so I opened my mouth and wanted to say something, but Liu Bin's hoarse voice rang out:
"Don't go back to Building D tonight."
I was stunned and asked hurriedly: "Why?"
"Remember, don't go back to Building D tonight."
Liu Bin continued to repeat this sentence.
I wondered why he asked me not to go back to Building D?
Could there be some danger in Building D tonight ?
Snapped!
At this moment, the light of the mobile phone suddenly went out and it was out of battery.
I was anxious. There was still half a bar of battery left when I came out, so why was it out of power now?
Whoosh!
A cold wind blew from an unknown place.
It was pitch black in front of me and I couldn't see anything.
I didn't know where Liu Bin was, so I could only shout, "Brother Liu, are you still there? You have to tell me why you can't go back to Building D?"
“Go!”
Suddenly, Liu Bin's voice became extremely terrified, as if some danger was about to happen.
My heart tightened, but before I could ask any questions, the corpse cabinet next to me suddenly made a "bang" sound.
