C14 Paranoia girl
I followed the security guard Song Tao to the end of the corridor. After turning a corner, I saw a light ahead. That should be the hall where the crowd gathered.
"Detective Huo, I'll send you here. The door in front is the hall. I still have other things to do, so I won't go in. I'll go look for someone else. I'll be leaving first." After he finished speaking, he let me leave by myself. I nodded my head to thank him before he quickly ran away. I watched him quickly run into the rain, and only the faint light in his hand was able to confirm his location.
I waited until the light was completely out of sight before I left for the hall...
After pushing the door open, a few doctors looked at me. They were all surrounding an old man, arguing fiercely about something, I don't know, only the doctor in charge of the mausoleum, Dr. Zhou, recognized me. He pulled me over and said, "Officer Huo, did you see anyone running around on the third floor?"
With a confused face, I told him everything that happened just now. He was also lost in thought. "With the power cut, many patients would accidentally escape. If these sick people escaped, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Of course I know the gravity of the situation, but it seems that no one has escaped yet. I looked into his eyes and realized that something must have happened.
"What happened?" He didn't answer and just brought me to the dean.
"Dean Dong, this is the criminal police officer Huo Zhong who has just come to our hospital to handle the case. I think he can help us deal with the current situation." The old man stood up and shook my hand. He let me sit beside him, and then he slowly told me the whole story.
"It started with the power cut, and a twelve-year-old child escaped from the ward. On the surface, this child looks fine, but in reality, she's suffering from severe delusions. Before she was sent here, she killed her parents because of them, do you know what happened?" The dean, his index finger interlocked under his chin, looked up at me gravely.
"She deluded herself that her parents were a devil and a wicked old witch. She kept her princess at home and wanted to destroy her country, so while her parents were sleeping, she locked the door from the inside and did what only devils would do … She set fire to the carpet in the room. The fire spread to the curtains, and the entire room was engulfed in flames.
When the police finally found her parents, both of them were charred in bed, and only two of them were completely unrecognizable. "
He said something that made my scalp tingle. When the little girl killed her parents, she was only eight years old. Four years had passed.
When I asked him how he had gotten the patient out of the ward, he gave me an even more incredulous answer — someone had secretly made an attempt to release the patient in order to create chaos.
"Dean Dong, tell me what that girl looks like, I'll go find her immediately." He sent me a picture from his cell phone. The girl in the picture was smiling brightly. She looked very cute in a princess skirt with two ponytails. I couldn't imagine her carrying two lives.
"Why is the electricity cut so easily? It's raining so heavily now, don't let anything happen tonight." Then he told the doctors to stay here and wait for the security chief to report back.
I pushed open the door with the photo and disappeared back into the darkness, but this time I had a powerful flashlight in my hand. I walked back the way I had come, and I wanted to see Room 702.
The corridor wasn't as long as I'd thought, perhaps for some reason I wasn't familiar with, but now I stopped short in front of 702. The man was still sitting there reading a book, and when he saw me he looked up at me again, but this time he stood up and closed the book and walked toward me.
"Why are you looking for me? Twice you looked at me like that." He was standing in front of me, just one window away.
I couldn't explain why I was so interested in him. I wanted to know his story, but he didn't respond. After a few casual words with me, he returned to his seat and continued reading his book.
I didn't care about that for now, so I decided to look for the girl, just in case something happened. I stared at the picture of the girl on my cell phone screen, and for some reason, I saw her grin. I almost dropped my phone.
I had come from the third floor of the building, so it was less likely that I would be in the building. I looked at the time and then went out into the rain.
The flashlight shined on the falling rain like a ghost's shadow, the falling rain quickly formed a curtain. Due to the heavy rain, it hurt even when it hit my body, especially when it hit my neck, making me shiver as it slid behind my back.
I trotted until water splashed on my pants. Fortunately, the open air wasn't too big, so I ran from the building in a few seconds. I looked around and saw the words stuck on the floor of the building in the dark.
The first floor was probably where the cards were played. I could see that there were about six or seven chess tables in the room, but they were out of power now, and in the dark they stood like tombstones. No one came to sweep the graves.
I pushed the door open and walked in. Although it seemed quite empty here, it was actually quite easy to hide one's person here. As long as there was a difference in vision, one could hide under a chess table.
I scanned the area with my flashlight, and because I was so focused, I bumped into a corner of the table and knocked into the mahjong lined up on it, most of them lying where they were, only a few still standing.
I ignored him and continued walking forward. After passing through the chess room, I arrived at the staircase. There were obvious footprints on the stairs, and from the size of the footprints, it couldn't be that of a twelve-year-old girl. Furthermore, this person seemed to have stepped into the water like me.
I followed the footprints and walked up to the second floor. The green light from the exit on the second floor was especially bright, making the footprints on the ground look green.
I continued to follow the footprint. I knew that the person must have pushed open the door and entered the supermarket on the second floor. When I entered the store, I could see that the footprint had stopped in front of the counter for a long time.
I skirted the shelves of food and walked through them. The footprints extended all the way to the toy shelves and I saw a little girl standing there staring up at the doll at the top of the shelf.
I whispered the girl's name, An Xuan, and she turned to look at me. I didn't know what she was holding in her arms, but after we looked at each other for a few seconds, she suddenly ran away. I called her name from behind, but she ignored me and kept running, and I followed her.
She ran pretty fast, she ran out of the supermarket and was about to run up to the third floor. I took two steps up the stairs, and just as I was about to grab her, she suddenly screamed, "Demon!" "Don't capture me, I want to go back and find my parents."
But she didn't know that four years ago, her parents had been killed by her, and she still wanted to run away, but when I tried to open the door, she couldn't. I picked her up, and she kept kicking and resisting, and the thing she was holding fell to the ground and rolled down the stairs. I used my flashlight to check what it was, and saw that on the landing of the stairs, a head was lying on its back, staring at me with empty eyes …
