Chapter 1: Morgue
My name is Cui Hao and I am 27 years old.
At this time, I was lying on a small bed of 2.0×1.2 staring blankly at the moldy wall for more than an hour, this is the morgue of Anping Hospital in Liuxia City, and I still don't know how I got to where I am now.
As a graduate of a key medical college, I just became a regular doctor in a key private hospital in the city half a month ago, but in just one week, I became a morgue administrator!
The world is changing so fast, I was a little caught off guard!
It all started with a sick person.
It was the night of a week ago, I was on the night shift that day, and I remember that it was supposed to be two o'clock in the morning, and it was raining very hard outside, and the sound of the rain was a little annoying, and even the nurses on duty in the whole hospital were already resting.
The work of the hospital is very busy, I felt a little fever in the afternoon, and in the evening I couldn't stand it anymore, so I came out of the duty room, ready to get some water and drink the antipyretics, but I didn't expect to find the first floor from the third floor, and all the water dispensers were empty.
Finally, I found a water dispenser with water at the front desk on the first floor.
Just when I was pouring water, suddenly a gust of wind blew in, the wind was really biting cold, where did the wind come from in this hospital, I turned my head curiously to look, the automatic door of the hospital suddenly opened for some reason, but there was no one at the door.
Sting, stinging!
The electric light above my head suddenly flashed a few times, and I saw that there was no one at the door, and I didn't take it too seriously, and I was ready to go back to the duty room after drinking the water, and at the moment I turned around, a figure suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, two eyes were blood-red, and I was only less than ten centimeters away from me, and I seemed to smell a fishy smell, I didn't care at the time, but then I thought about it, it was the smell of rotting corpses!
The figure startled me and quickly took a step back.
"Doctor, I want to see a doctor!" The hoarse voice sounded, and I breathed a sigh of relief only to realize that the other party was a middle-aged man.
"You want to scare people to death!" I was a little dissatisfied, but my professional habits still made me subconsciously ask about his condition.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Headache!"
At this point in time, most of the staff on duty in the hospital were resting, so I thought, if it wasn't a serious illness, I would just show the other party directly, cold and fever or something, just go home and drink some medicine, and don't wake everyone up.
At this time, I took a serious look at the other party, this is a middle-aged man who is about the same height as me, his condition is not good, it can even be said to be very bad, he didn't have an umbrella in such a heavy rain, his body has been completely wet, the rain is dripping from him, his face is a little blue, the dark circles are very heavy, his eyes are even red, all bloodshot, he looks a little scary, and his voice is also very hoarse.
"You don't seem to be sick, how long have you been sick, have you had a check-up?" I asked with a frown.
"Doctor, just prescribe me some painkillers. The middle-aged man said.
"Let's take my temperature first. "I took out a thermometer from my white coat and handed it to the other party, only to find that there was a bite mark on the other person's arm, which had suppurated.
"What's the matter with your arm?" I pulled up the other man's arm again, and the other man's whole arm began to turn blue, the green tendons on the back of his hand burst out, and his nails were even blacker, which was very abnormal.
"Yes, I was bitten by a dog, doctor, hurry up and help me prescribe medicine!" The middle-aged man was a little anxious for some reason.
"You were bitten by a dog, why don't you get vaccinated quickly!" I was a little angry, "Being bitten by a dog is not a trivial matter, be careful of rabies!"
"Doctor, I'll go tomorrow, can you help me prescribe medicine first?" The middle-aged man seemed to have a headache and became more and more irritable.
At this moment, the lights in the hall on the first floor suddenly slammed, and they all went out.
Through the moonlight, I found that the person on the other side seemed to be more and more abnormal, those blood-red eyes felt extremely evil, I subconsciously took two steps back, the air around me seemed to become very cold, colder than just now, my heart was pounding a little fast.
The situation in the hall seemed to alarm the hospital's security guards, and it wasn't long before the lights came back on.
The middle-aged man's face seemed to turn greener, and he became more and more impatient.
"I want painkillers!" the middle-aged man roared, the voice making me feel like I was facing a wild beast.
You can't prescribe painkillers casually, this is regulated in the hospital, but before I could say it, the middle-aged man suddenly grabbed the antipyretic medicine I put on the table and ran away!
"Hey, you ......" I tried to stop the other party, but the middle-aged man had already run out of the door.
Just as the other party was running away, I suddenly noticed that the thermometer handed to the other party had fallen off his body.
I picked it up and looked at the temperature, and I was instantly shocked, 10 degrees!
Having trouble with your thermometer?
I remember I just measured it, but how can the temperature of the human body be 10 degrees?
I kind of can't figure it out.
"Dr. Cui, what's wrong?" a security guard walked over.
Although I was a little confused, but the other party was already gone, I shook my head, "No, it's okay." ”
Although the situation was a bit strange at that time, but the work of the hospital was too busy, and I soon forgot about it, but I didn't expect that on the third day, a large group of people suddenly came to the hospital, more than ten men and women, dressed in linen and filial piety, and came to the door with the spirit card, and the person on the spirit card was the middle-aged man who came to me at midnight to see a doctor!
The middle-aged man died suddenly and violently in just one day after leaving the hospital, and the cause of death could not be found at all, the only thing that was related was that he snatched my antipyretic medicine, but no matter how I explained it, the other party was unrelenting, insisting that it was my antipyretic medicine that killed the person. How tense the relationship between doctors and patients is now, in order to reduce the impact, the hospital insisted that I apologize to the other party, and also compensated the other party 30,000 yuan, although the doctor's salary is not low, but I spent a lot of money, 30,000 yuan directly knocked me back to the prototype, not only that, the hospital also punished me, and some people made an obstruction from it, and kicked me directly from the position of the official doctor to the morgue.
In short, I became the scapegoat for the incomparably aggrieved one.
I can only afford to live in the basement now, a single room of less than ten square meters, it has rained recently in Liuxia City, and the rain is seeping everywhere, and the corners of the wall are dripping with water, and the dingdong dingdong rings endlessly, and I haven't slept all night.
"Bell bell bell" eight o'clock, the alarm clock remembered on time, I sighed, pressed the alarm clock to get up, no matter what, life has to go on, the recent medical accident, now the city's hospitals do not dare to ask me, otherwise I would have resigned a long time ago, and now the work of this morgue can still be done, and after a period of time the impact is reduced, in the activity, you can continue to be my doctor.
After washing, I took an umbrella and went out, I don't know what happened in the past few days, the rain in Liuxia City was like taking a basin of water from the sky to pour down, several places were flooded, and when I arrived at the hospital, my whole body was soaked, and the umbrella was useless.
"Doctor Cui is early!" a little nurse greeted me with a smile, and another older nurse next to me pulled the little nurse and glanced at Cui Hao with disdain, "He has been transferred to the morgue now, what else do you call him Doctor Cui." ”
"Maybe Dr. Choi will come back one day. ”
"It's been an accident from the hospital, he can't come back, hurry up, don't be late." ”
The little nurse gave me an apologetic look and was pulled away.
I smiled wryly and shook my head, people are snobbish nowadays, and I don't want to accept the white eyes of others in the hospital, so I walked straight to the morgue.
"Ahh
When I walked to the morgue, I couldn't help but sneeze.
To put it bluntly, the morgue is a place where the corpses are parked, in order to ensure that the corpses do not decay, it is already very cold here, and my clothes are soaked today because of the rain, and the cold is even more difficult to drill into the body, and I only shiver when it is cold.
Coupled with sleeping in the basement at night, I felt like I had a cold again.
"Hey, that's unlucky!"
It's really a bad year, and all the unlucky things have been caught up by me.
The morgue of Anping Hospital is very large, it is the morgue with the best facilities in the city, in addition to the patients who died in the hospital, some corpses that need special treatment will also be placed here, such as infectious disease patients, criminal corpses, etc., and even rented out here, some corpses that cannot be cremated immediately, and the family members will store the bodies of the deceased here first.
The entire morgue is divided into ten areas, each area has an administrator, the first five areas are used for the hospital dead patients, the sixth to ninth areas are used for rent, only the tenth area, those very special corpses are placed.
I'm in charge of the 10th region, and it's the one that no one wants to take over.
After all, the corpses in the first nine areas will be relatively normal, most of the deceased have not suffered any crimes in their lifetimes, and their faces will be more peaceful, while only the corpses in the tenth area will be varied, varied!
Corpses with severed hands and feet, or even headless, some of the more miserable corpses could not be pieced together.
There are also those who may have suffered great pain before death, and their faces after death will be extremely hideous, in short, the tenth area of the morgue is called hell by the people of the hospital!
Fortunately, I have been studying medicine for eight years, and I have seen too many corpses, and I think that when I was in medical school, the professor asked everyone to go to the morgue at 12 o'clock at midnight to carry the corpse to the laboratory, and then carry it back, and I was the only one who completed this task.
So I don't feel much about 'hell'.
After changing into work clothes and drinking some cold medicine, I waited for my body to warm up and started today's work.
There is not a lot of work in the mortuary, keep the indoor and outdoor hygiene clean, the doors and windows are tight, do a good job of rodent prevention, rodent extermination, regular disinfection is enough, and there is a good record of the removal and placement of each corpse.
I've been here for three days, and I'm already familiar with all the work, and I've done all the work in the morning, and after lunch at noon, I'm about to take a break, when the phone rings.
glanced at the phone number of the morgue director, and quickly answered it, "Hello Director Zhang!"
"Xiao Cui, there are a lot of corpses in the hospital recently, the first nine areas are almost full, and there will be a corpse stored in the tenth area at two o'clock in the afternoon, you remember to receive it then." ”
"Okay Director!"
After hanging up the phone, I looked at my watch, it was already one o'clock, there was still an hour before the person came, and now my task was to organize some things, and I had to prepare the clothes and some tools to carry the corpse before the person came.
At two o'clock, I was ready and waiting at the door of the morgue.
When the corpse was transported, I took a look at the corpse and was suddenly stunned, this corpse turned out to be the middle-aged man who was making trouble!
