Chapter 3: The Doctor

Half a year after the black light dance party in Xicheng Yingbi Hutong was calm, Beijing ushered in a strange summer. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe rain is unusually abundant, the sun is shining during the day, and the evening is cloudy, lightning and thunder, but the dry thunder does not rain, and it is not until the night, the downpour is late, and it is so for a week, very punctual. During this time, the accuracy of the weather forecast is very high, but no one pays attention to it, and at night, everyone goes home early and never comes out. But the rain was still heavy every night, so I had to stack two layers of sandbags on the steps at the door of the house, so that the water in the yard would not be too high and flood into the house.

In the genealogy of the Chang family, there are still many records of this abnormal weather without rain and thunder, and the ancestors called it drought thunder. In many Zhiwei novels, there will always be a drought, and once the drought, the water will dry up for ten miles. It may be influenced by the legend that the Tsing Yi Nulu in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" helped the Yellow Emperor break the nine-day rain of the wind god Yubo and capture Chiyou, and the folk always think that the drought is a zombie, which is the cause of the drought. But many of the gods and monsters in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" are actually the incarnations of animals, at least the zombies have become drought, which I have never seen. But there have been many droughts for several years, and some thirsty animals have become droughts, but I have seen a lot, and the droughts are not caused by drinking the water of streams and ponds, but the droughts will be soaked in water, it smells bad all over its body, and the water will turn black and green, and can no longer be drunk. But when the drought fish is infested for a long time, the drought thunder will also appear, sometimes the sky is clear, a thunder will fall, and it is even recorded in the genealogy that some of the drought thunder is not a straight up and straight down split, but becomes a glowing ball, which can change direction to accelerate the chase of the drought fish. During that time, I also thought that there must have been a lot of drought outside the city recently, so there was this vision of drought and thunder.

Recently, the Cao team has rarely been in contact, and I heard that because of the case of the black light ball, he made a third-class meritorious service, and when he was officially proud, he was estimated to be ambitious and devoted himself to serving the people. But sometimes people are most afraid of worrying, and when they don't want to, it's okay, and when they think about it, everything will be invited.

It was past three o'clock in the morning that night, and the rain was still pouring down, and lightning and thunder were roaring. The phone at home rang suddenly, and the voice of Team Cao came: "Lao Chang, I'm sorry to disturb you at this time, there was an accident in the morgue of the 392 Hospital in the western suburbs in the middle of the night, two people died, a crazy one, I watched the scene, it was too unreasonable, can you trouble you to come and take a look, I will drive over to pick you up after twenty minutes." After Cao Team finished speaking, he hurriedly hung up the phone, and without waiting for me to say whether it would be okay or not, I shook my head and went into the bedroom to change clothes.

I am very familiar with 392 Hospital, and after my father's subway Xuanmen case came out that year, I arranged to be admitted to this hospital and spent the last period of my life. This hospital is a hospital directly under the army, located in the west of Beijing, a very quiet place, because it mainly serves the cadres and families of the army, and its reputation is not high, but the medical conditions and technology are definitely among the best in Beijing. In the past two years, in order to cooperate with the municipal government to solve the problem of the difficulty of the masses in seeking medical treatment, it has begun to open to the public.

After a while, Team Cao's car arrived in the alley, and I got into the car, Team Cao didn't care about being polite, and introduced me to the reason for the case while driving. At about half past twelve, the police station where the hospital is located first received a report, and the police looked at the scene and knew that it was a big case that could not be handled, so they immediately reported it. Team Cao received an order from the criminal police brigade at half past one and arrived at the scene in fifteen minutes.

The incident happened in the morgue of the hospital, and since there are not many hospitals nearby, in order to solve the increasing problem of mortuary cremation, the morgue of the 392 hospital is very large. It is located in a small two-story building in the northwest corner of the hospital, and the morgue can accommodate 150 corpses. All housed in rows of stainless steel freezers. Every night in the hospital, there is a special person guarding the morgue, a 50-year-old external worker, named Luo Shengli, on the night of the crime, he was a little unwell and could not get out of bed, his son in his twenties volunteered to go to the morgue for him. His son's name is Luo Wenbin, but in fact, he is not very bold, so he called two friends to accompany him on duty. At about twelve o'clock, a sudden thunderbolt struck and shook the glass of the hospital. Then a hoarse shout pierced the night sky, as if someone had escaped from the small building of the morgue.

The hospital security department heard the shouting, and quickly arranged for someone to go out to check, as soon as the person entered the morgue, he was stupid, there were three corpses lying outside the cold storage, one was facing the cold storage door, his face was hideous and distorted, his eyes were wide open, and he fell directly from the chair on his back to the ground, and he was already out of breath. Opposite him, there was a completely **** corpse, lying prone on the ground, white and wet, as if it had been dragged out of the cold storage inside, but there was a huge crack on the top of his head, and there was no blood flowing out, which should have been smashed after being frozen. Next to the naked corpse was a broken wooden chair. There was also a corpse lying on top of the naked corpse, its head seemed to have been struck by lightning through a large hole, clear gray smoke and burnt stench came out, the clothes on its back were dancing with some light blue flames, and its legs were constantly twitching, apparently struck by the lightning just now.

At this point, Team Cao has driven into the gate of the hospital. The hospital occupies a large area, and it took us half a day to drive to the bottom of the morgue, where there were already four or five police cars lined up, and the soldiers of the hospital security office were guarding the door with live ammunition. The rain was still heavy, and I was already halfway wet from the car to the building. As soon as I entered the building door, I saw the figure of Team Jiang smoking with his back to him. When he saw me coming in, he snuffed out his cigarette butt and greeted him, "Hard work, Comrade Xiaochang, I won't give you a briefing on the situation first, after you go in and read it, talk about your intuition first." Maybe in the next day or two, you're going to go back with us, and the time is pressing" "Why is this case so tight?" "Xiao Cao took your kung fu, and another thunderbolt came down, and a hospitalized patient sneaked out to see the excitement, and let the thunder chop to death. The Jiang team also seems to be a little unprepared for this sudden situation, and seems a little anxious, which is very rare in him. Listening to the faint thunder overhead, I couldn't help but feel palpitations.

The morgue is on the first floor, and there is a small square hall of more than ten square meters at the main entrance of the cold storage, where the scene of the case is located. The situation at the scene was similar to that introduced by Team Cao, and the three of them were obviously sitting around the small wooden table in the middle of the small hall, because there were some playing cards scattered on the ground on the wooden table. The smoke above the young man who had been struck by lightning had apparently cleared, leaving only a grim charred hole, and he was still clutching a broken chair leg. I've seen a lot of dead people, but when I see this scene, my stomach still sours.

I took a closer look at the naked corpse below, it must have been dead for a few days, his body was covered with black spots, strangely his back, and his limbs were full of crust, like a thin layer of tortoise shell, but his eyes were open, and they were all whites. From the countenance, he looks like he is thirty or forty years old. I walked along the corpse to the cold storage, there were some water stains on the floor of the corridor in front of the cold storage, which extended to the cold storage, and the ground in the cold storage was a small patch of ice stubble. There is a freezer drawer on the left side of the cold storage that is completely opened, it seems that the naked corpse outside is out of this drawer, I tried the opening and closing of the drawer, there are slides and rubber wheels on both sides of the drawer, and it is not difficult to push.

I came out of the cold storage, and Team Ginger handed me a cigarette. "Team Jiang, the corpse in the cold storage came out by itself, there are only footprints of the corpse all the way, it is estimated that the three people outside were playing cards at that time, the corpse came out of the cold storage, and the person who was facing the cold storage was directly scared, and the one who was facing away should be Luo Wenbin, he attacked the corpse with a chair and smashed him to the ground, at this time he was struck by a falling lightning. The person sitting next to him must have witnessed the whole process, and his heart and gall were broken, and he ran out while shouting. But Luo Wenbin was struck by lightning in the house, and there was a floor above, all of which were concrete slabs, which were not conductive and could not be penetrated, it could only be a kind of ball lightning called Drought Thunder, which could come in from the gate and hit Luo Wenbin. I slowly expressed my judgment, and when I saw that Team Jiang lowered his head and pondered, and did not answer, I further analyzed.
