Chapter 27 Wrong Room
Possessed by a ghost?
I took a deep breath, my voice trembling a little: "Stop, stop joking..."
"I'm not kidding. You looked like you were possessed by a ghost just now!" Cheng Xiaoyan said seriously, "Why else would you behave so strangely and not remember anything afterwards?"
After she said that, I thought it was possible.
However, it was hard to accept the fact that I was possessed by an evil thing.
"Zhiyong, please leave Building D. This place is too dangerous."
Cheng Xiaoyan's voice softened a little, and she grabbed my hand. "From what you told me, there must be something wrong with Building D. It's just a simple night watch job, but the salary is shockingly high. Even after becoming a regular doctor, it's higher than that of an average doctor... Also, don't you think those strange taboos in Ward 404 are unreasonable?"
"By the way, the person you just ran to the morgue to chase should be the previous night watchman Liu Bin, right?"
"He's already dead. Why would a dead person call you and appear in front of you so often?"
"Doesn't all this explain the problem?"
"Resign now! If you keep doing this, something bad will happen to you!"
Cheng Xiaoyan became more and more excited as she spoke, as if there really was an endless abyss of hell ahead.
I was silent.
I have to admit that I was somewhat moved by what she said.
But being persuaded doesn't mean that you will actually resign.
I do not have any choice.
My mother is seriously ill in bed and needs money, a lot of money.
Even if this place is really a dangerous place, even if I am really entangled by something, I can only bite the bullet and do it.
Yes, even a fool can see that there is obviously something wrong with Building D.
In order to allow me to continue working as a night watchman, the hospital not only fired me from my high salary, but also reduced a lot of my mother's medical expenses... It is even possible that if I asked, the medical expenses would be waived completely.
I have always understood that "high returns must come with high risks", but now, I have no way out.
"Xiaoyan, thank you for your advice, but I won't leave Building D." I forced a bitter smile and said, "Go back, it's late now."
Cheng Xiaoyan bit her lip, which eventually turned into a faint sigh.
She naturally understood why I chose to stay.
Apart from money and power, the only things .
…
I accompanied Cheng Xiaoyan back to Ward 105. It was very quiet inside and He Min should have fallen asleep.
After saying good night, I closed the door for her.
Instead of going back to the lounge, I sat on the chair in the gallery at the door, staring at the ceiling, in a daze.
He rubbed his aching temple. His mind was now in complete confusion... It was related to his experience in the morgue and also to Cheng Xiaoyan's words.
I have no idea what to do next.
I'm not even sure if I can see the sun tomorrow.
Liu Bin’s tragic death is still vivid in my mind, appearing in my dreams again and again every day like a maggot on the heel.
So many Night Watchmen have died, will I be the next?
Half asleep, I felt a little sleepy, so I simply closed my eyes and took a nap.
I don’t know how long it was before a cold wind blew and woke me up from my sleep.
I checked my phone and it was already past three in the morning.
Suddenly, I thought of something terrible!
Among the four taboos, one of them is - you must not sleep in the ward or corridor in the middle of the night!
What about me now?
He swallowed his saliva , felt a little scared, and cursed himself for having a bad memory.
But, I only took a nap for a dozen minutes, so it shouldn’t be a big problem, right?
I comforted myself like this, quickly got up and walked towards the lounge.
But, strangely, the lounge that I could usually see after walking a few steps was gone!
Ahead, there was a narrow, dark corner staircase.
I was dumbfounded...
what happened?
Why is this happening?
I rubbed my eyes to make sure I wasn't seeing things - the lounge was really gone.
Inexplicably, I thought of what Liu Bin said in the morgue - "Don't go back to Building D tonight!"
Is he warning me that Building D is in danger?
Before I had time to think about it, my attention was attracted by the number at the stairs - 4.
Is this the fourth floor?
My eyes widened and I was completely confused.
I clearly remember that after sending Cheng Xiaoyan back to 105, I sat at the door. How come when I woke up, I was on the fourth floor?
I hurried down the stairs and started running.
Fourth floor, third floor, second floor, first floor...
Counting silently in his mind, he ran down without looking back.
When I counted to the first floor, I stopped a few steps and my face turned pale as paper.
The blood-red number "4" came into view again...
Damn, why am I back on the fourth floor again?
My body froze, and I suddenly felt an indescribable fear in my heart...
I remember when I was a child, the elders often said that when walking at night, you must not look back, and ignore it if you hear someone calling your name, otherwise you will most likely be stared at by dirty creatures and have your eyes covered.
When your eyes are covered by dirt, you will "not be able to see" the roads you are familiar with, making it impossible for you to get out no matter how hard you try.
This saying is called "ghost covering your eyes" or "ghost building a wall around you".
At that time, I just listened to the old man's mysterious words for fun and didn't take them seriously.
But now, it is actually happening in front of me, and I can't help but believe it!
I forced myself to calm down, took out my phone, and started searching online for what to do when I encountered a mysterious obstacle.
There are various ways to say it, such as swearing, spitting, staying where you are and waiting for dawn... Another one is to urinate against the wall, but the prerequisite is that it must be boy's urine, otherwise it will be useless.
I followed the instructions above and started trying them one by one. Except for urinating against the wall, I tried all the other methods, but still... I was still wandering on the fourth floor.
I gritted my teeth and didn't care about anything else. I walked to the wall and started to urinate.
An unpleasant smell spread.
After finishing it, I walked down the stairs without stopping and ran madly.
I came downstairs panting and looked over nervously...
Fortunately, there are no stairs...
That damn number 4 finally stopped appearing...
I was still a little worried, so I took a few more steps. It was not until I saw the familiar wooden door of the lounge and the warm orange light inside that the tension in my heart finally relaxed...
I'm back, I'm finally back...
I walked into the lounge feeling relieved and closed the door. My body was extremely tired at this moment. I sat down on the ground as if paralyzed, breathing heavily.
I wish I could breathe all the air in the room into my lungs.
All the clothes on my body were soaked with cold sweat, as if I had been caught in the rain.
After resting for a while, I stood up with difficulty and fell limply on the bed.
It’s so comfortable.
I really want to sleep like this forever...
etc.
Why does this quilt feel so rough?
I opened my eyes suddenly and realized something was wrong.
The quilt in the lounge was a handmade quilt I brought from home by my mother. It is very soft and cannot be compared to those cheap quilts on the market.
However, now, the quilt under my body not only feels extremely rough, but also smells moldy, as if it has been left for a long time and has not been used at all.
Did someone come into my room and change the quilt?
I looked up blankly, and my face suddenly turned into one of horror.
No!
Not just a quilt!
The bed, the walls, the lights on the ceiling, the furnishings in the room, the walls, everything changed!
The TV on the counter is gone too!
My eyes widened and my breathing suddenly became rapid.
Wrong room!
This is not a lounge at all!
I jumped out of bed as if I had received an electric shock, rushed to the door and turned the doorknob.
However, the door seemed to be locked from the outside and no matter how hard I tried, it didn't budge.
I turned my head back tremblingly, and suddenly felt that the structure of this room was inexplicably familiar...
I remembered that on the first day of my night watch in Building D, Liu Bin and I went on patrol and passed by Room 404. When we saw the door open, the scene inside seemed exactly the same as it is now...
At that time, I thought it was an illusion, but now...
A terrible thought emerged uncontrollably - this is Ward 404!
I came to Ward 404! ?
"Aaaah! Aaah! Aaah! Aaah..."
A cold and shrill baby cry suddenly sounded in the room.
I saw a small black creature crawling out from under the quilt on the bed near the window...
It had a very large, oval head and a small body wrapped in black clothes. It cried as it moved its body, fell off the bed, and then slowly crawled towards me...
My face suddenly turned ashen, and a name suddenly flas
