Chapter 80 You are the King of Western Chu
The guy in the costume is a lunatic?
What comes out of Old Man Ji’s mouth can just be treated as a ghost story.
If he was really a lunatic, he would have been sent to a mental hospital long ago .
Most people are just paranoid, not crazy.
Suddenly, Su He seemed to have grasped something, a mental hospital!
What if what Old Man Ji told was not a ghost story, but a true one? He just used ghosts to replace the unexplainable things.
In folk stories, most ghosts actually represent the unknown, such as the ghost fire on the grave, which is the spontaneous combustion phenomenon of white phosphorus released by the decomposition of bones.
In Old Man Ji's story, Yu Ji committed suicide, which may be because the actor herself wanted to commit suicide, the fire may have been an accident or man-made, and people died every day in Deyuan Theater, which may have been caused by a plague or infectious disease.
As for the man who ran away from the mental hospital, he most likely ran away from the mental hospital!
Thinking of this, Su He was a little excited. He got out of bed, pulled out the needle, drank the remaining glucose in the bottle, changed his clothes, walked out the door and said, "Officer Zhao, send me to the mental hospital..."
Zhao Shaoyang was stunned and asked in surprise: "Didn't the doctor say it was a concussion? Has it gotten worse?"
…
On the way, Zhao Shaoyang said as he drove: "There are a total of 19 hospitals related to mental illness in the capital area... There are two within ten kilometers of Deyuan Theater, and one of them meets your conditions... No, it is a public welfare hospital that meets the conditions you described and accepts confirmed mental patients for long-term treatment."
"Let's go check that one out first!"
Su He was not sure whether his guess was correct.
When they arrived at the hospital, Zhao Shaoyang showed his ID and a nurse led the two of them in.
"Our hospital currently has a total of 238 patients, 205 in Area A and 33 in Area B... Officers, how can I help you?"
Zhao Shaoyang looked at Su He, and Su He said, "Is there a man who often sings opera?"
The nurse looked up at Su He with a flustered look in his eyes. He waited for a long time before replying, "Excuse me, officers. I need to consult the dean about the patient's condition. Please wait for me for a moment..."
The nurse went to the side to make a phone call. Su He and Officer Zhao looked at each other, and Officer Zhao said, "There's hope!"
Not long after, a middle-aged woman rushed over and asked, "Officer, do you know where Chang Wu is?"
Chang Wu?
Su He didn't say anything, so Officer Zhao asked, "Who is Chang Wu?"
The middle-aged woman replied: "Officer, to be honest, our hospital has lost a patient. He is an old patient of ours for thirteen years. He is usually very normal, but he occasionally goes crazy and often sings opera..."
"Over the years, Chang Wu would sneak out every once in a while. At first, we called the police to look for him and they caught him, but later he would come back on his own sometimes..."
"We thought of many ways and kept him in Area B for a few months. Later, he behaved well, so we moved him to Area A. But we didn't expect that he ran away again a few days ago..."
Su He immediately asked: "What time did you run away?"
"On the evening of May 16th... when our nurses were making rounds, he disappeared..."
Officer Zhao asked, "Is there a photo of Chang Wu here?"
"Yes, yes, officer... please wait a moment..."
When Su He took Chang Wu's photo, he was stunned. Chang Wu's face was covered with pimples and his original appearance could not be seen at all.
"Does Chang Wu have any relatives?"
"No... When he came, I hadn't started working here yet, and no one has come to see him in these years..."
At this moment, Officer Zhao's cell phone suddenly rang. He opened it, handed it to Su He and said, "Look, it's someone wearing a costume."
The middle-aged woman took a glance and said, "That's Chang Wu! I don't know where he got that costume from, it has always been his treasure... A few days ago, he ran away with the costume..."
On the top of the Taijing Mobile Building, Chang Wu stood on the edge of the roof, dressed as the King of Western Chu, muttering to himself, moving left and right, and almost fell down several times, which was a terrifying sight.
"I'll drive!"
After walking out of the mental hospital, Su He snatched the car keys from Officer Zhao's hand and went straight into the driver's seat.
Officer Zhao patted the car door and said, "Come out! Don't think I don't know you don't have a driver's license... You are driving without a license... I'll drive!"
Su He sat obediently in the passenger seat. Officer Zhao sounded the siren and drove towards the Taijing Mobile Building.
As soon as the car stopped, Su He opened the door and rushed out, but the police stopped him from entering. Finally, Officer Zhao came and took him in.
In the elevator, Zhao Shaoyang looked at Su He and said with a smile: "Why don't you consider joining the criminal police team? The bureau has special recruitment quotas. You don't even need to take a written test. Next time, no police stop you..."
"Can I not go to work and not punch in?" Su He asked.
"Then can you not ask for salary?" Zhao Shaoyang rolled his eyes.
Su He thought about it seriously and replied: "Okay!"
No need to go to work, no need to punch in, just a white-collar worker with a criminal police ID and no salary seems acceptable.
"Dream on!"
The Taijing Mobile Building has 33 floors. When he got out of the elevator, there were already police officers from the police station on the rooftop doing ideological work for Chang Wu.
Su He followed Officer Zhao and saw Chang Wu standing on the edge of the top floor, singing:
"He shot several generals in the Han camp.
Even if you are brave, how can you guard against the hidden dangers on all sides?
Send the general to stop sending out troops and return to their camps..."
Chang Wu was so absorbed in his work that the police did not dare to approach him.
Suddenly, a clear and loud singing voice was heard, and Su He walked over with small steps and pinched her fingers.
"Your Majesty!"
Several policemen were stunned. Su He’s head was still wrapped in gauze. One madman was not enough, and here comes another one?
Chang Wu turned his head to look at Su He, and then read:
"How frightening this has been for you."
Su He also continued:
"My lord, how did we win today ?"
Chang Wu gradually relaxed his vigilance and said:
"I have killed several generals in the Han camp with my spear, but we are outnumbered and it is difficult to win. This is the will of heaven, not the fault of war..."
Su He took light steps and slowly approached Chang Wu, looking into his eyes and said, "Victory and defeat in the military is common sense...Fuck you..."
Su He grabbed Chang Wu's feet and pulled him down. Suddenly, Chang Wu fell on his back.
"You're the King of Western Chu... Damn, you dare to block me..." Su He rushed forward and started punching and kicking. Chang Wu didn't have time to react at all and was hit several times.
"Su He, stop hitting him!" Officer Zhao hurriedly grabbed Su He, and other police officers controlled Chang Wu.
Su He kicked Chang Wu in the stomach and yelled, "Why the hell did you want to kill Gu Chang!"
Su He's kick was very powerful. Chang Wu bent his body and looked up at Su He after a long while and said, "My concubine, you must not commit suicide like this!"
Su He suddenly broke free from Officer Zhao's restraints, rushed forward and punched Chang Wu several times.
"Sing your sister...I'm asking you...why did you kill Gu Chang!"
