Chapter 144: Escape from the Asylum (3)
"Why did he take you as a companion?" Lying on the bed, Gu Qi recalled the words he had talked to Miao Yi in the office.
"There are two possibilities." He said at the time: "One is to make me the target of public criticism, Zhang Shun said that guide dogs want me to grow up as soon as possible, I don't know the purpose, endless battles can make people grow quickly, the world's prayer organization has been angered by guide dogs, it is likely to send someone to kill my 'companion', or capture me back to find out his whereabouts, I have to keep fighting, ironically, the prayer organization is likely to find my location through him." ”
"Haha, use the guide dog to find out your location, and then catch you back to find out the location of the guide dog? As sentimental as it sounds, what else could it be? Miao Yi took the opportunity to gloat.
"Also, the guide dog is really my companion, a companion in another sense, there are so many prayer teachers in the world, how can I be the only one who is fulfilling the obligation of a prayer teacher." Gu Qi opened the refrigerator and took a look, and saw that there were all kinds of drinks and wine inside.
"You mean......" Miao Yi remembered what she had seen at the Baoxiang Cemetery.
"Well, it's likely that he's also a product of that plan." Gu Qi didn't take the water, and returned to sit on the sofa.
"The word 'product' comes out of your mouth...... Weird. Miao Yi yawned, pouted her ass and stretched.

Shrinking up, Gu Qi smelled the stench on the bed again, the ward was extremely wet and cold, and the quilt was a terrible dirty cloth, like a sheet thrown into the garbage heap, and there was a musty smell.
This illusion is terrifyingly real, and everything that can be subjectively perceived and objectively perceived is no different from the real world, including the scenery outside the window, the brightness and darkness of the moonlight, and the stars in the sky.
But the scariest thing is the setting.
Whether it is the origin of the name Seven-Gu or Gu Qi's identity, it is very clear, and Gu Qi's "apocryphal" prayer master and ghost face also have a reasonable explanation:
The hostile prayer master is the caretaker in the madhouse. They usually treat the sick roughly, and the sick are of course hostile to them;
Non-hostile prayer teachers are patients in insane asylums, people who behave unpredictably and may harm themselves, so they also need to be on guard.
Ghost noodles are pills, and the prayer master uses them as money or absorbs them, and the patient uses them as money or takes them, and long-term use of medicine will cause hallucinations. Perhaps this is also the reason why "Mr. Guy's" condition has not improved.
Everything can be explained, everything can be used to determine that Steven Guy is a mentally troubled person, everything can be used to deny Gu Qi and all related existences.
The longer he stayed here, the more Gu Qi could feel the power of the illusion.
He raised his hand, rolled up his sleeves, and looked at the word "illusion" on his arm, and his arm did not feel pain, the color of the word did not fade, and it was very smooth to the touch.
Wait a minute......
Gu Qimeng sat up from the bed. By the moonlight, I carefully observed the words on my arm and rubbed it vigorously.
It's not a scar, it's not written with a pen, it's a tattoo.
The handwriting is not good-looking. It's not Gu Qi's handwriting, nor is it tattooed in a tattoo parlor, it's more like a tattoo made by piercing the skin with a sharp object and then smearing it with crimson ink. It looks a lot like a scar cut with a knife.
"Whose handwriting is this?" Gu Qi suddenly thought of a possibility, and then immediately denied it, not denying its possibility. Rather, the whole idea was denied.
The idea is simple - this is Steven Gay's handwriting.
…………
The next morning, he was awakened by a knock on the door.
"Eat!" It was Berwick who knocked on the door, and this time he didn't stop, opened the door and left.
Gu Qi got out of bed, walked to the door and listened for a while, then opened the door and looked out.
There were quite a few people in the hallway, all walking in the direction of the hall, and he immediately joined in.
I have already thought about it last night, the first thing to do at this stage is to observe the environment, try to be low-key, not to attract the attention of any caregivers and patients, and after finding out the situation of the madhouse, I will make an escape plan while looking for Miao Yi, escape from the madhouse, and escape from the illusion.
If necessary, he would kill all the people here.
Breakfast was carried out in the hall, a piece of bread, a cup of milk, most of the people walked directly to the bathroom, Gu Qi did not go, but took his own bread, sat in the corner of the hall, and observed.
There were people coming and going, and there was no Wagner figure, but Schmidt came over with his breakfast and sat down next to Gu Qi.
"How many times a day? How many at a time under normal circumstances? Gu Qi immediately asked in a low voice.
"Once in the morning, noon and evening, usually four at a time, why can't you remember anything?" Schmidt said, nibbling on bread.
"Can you get anything?" Gu Qi asked again.
"Weapons don't work, knives, pipes, daggers and whatever." Schmidt drank the milk in one gulp.
"Where's the iron spoon? Fork? Iron ruler? Nail? Plastic ones are fine, toothbrushes? Bottle? Gu Qi asked one by one, iron and plastic daily necessities can become good weapons if they are sharpened.
Schmidt kept shaking his head: "Metal ones can't be found, plastic ones are hard to find, and no one brushes their teeth here." ”
"Where's the wood? Sticks, branches, mop sticks, etc. Gu Qi asked again, the wood can be used if it is sharpened, but it is easy to wear out.
Schmidt was embarrassed and said: "You can get wooden things, but after they are discovered, Berwick will come to inspect them thoroughly, it is too dangerous, even if you get something, you will have to take it away, and you will inevitably suffer." ”
Gu Qi nodded, and asked again, "Paper is always okay, right?" Paper cups, napkins, rolls. ”
"I can give you a paper cup for free, what are you doing here? Forget the napkins, that kind of high-end stuff...... Are you going to be the dean? Won't you just go to the toilet by yourself on the web? Schmidt squinted his eyes at Gu Qi: "You won't be beaten stupid by Berwick a few days ago, will you?" ”
Gu Qi nodded, thinking that you had given me a good excuse, and asked again, "What about the candles and glue?" Can you get it? ”
"That's fine, but what the hell are you doing with it?" Schmidt was at a loss.
"You don't have to worry about it, just help me get it, who is the dean?" Gu Qi looked at Schmidt curiously.
"As I said, no one has ever seen the dean, and Dr. Elvis and Berwick have the final say." Schmidt finished drinking the milk and handed the paper cup to Gu Qi.
Gu Qi took the paper cup and ate the bread slowly with him.
The bread tasted light, but he chewed it finely, hoping to absorb every bit of the bread's nutrients.
Before Schmidt left, Gu Qi asked him again, "Have you seen a cat here?" ”
"Cats?" Schmidt paused for a moment and laughed: "Eight out of ten of the people locked up here have grown up killing cats and dogs since childhood, and if a cat appears here, it probably won't live for five minutes, and there is no rule that heather cliff is not allowed to kill cats." ”
…………
The whole day, Gu Qi spent the whole day in silent observation, Berwick came to trouble him, but he was treated coldly, and there was no point in doing it now.
This madhouse obviously does not have the concept of "humanity", people are receiving primitive electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) every day, lobotomy is still going on, Gu Qi bit Berwick and was beaten to a coma by Berwick, which avoided the punishment of being electrocuted or craniotomy, and Elvis did the examination for him because of this incident.
It can be seen that Elvis's status is much higher than Berwick's, and it is precisely because Elvis spoke that Berwick did not take further retaliatory actions against Gu Qi, but just kept provoking, hoping that Gu Qi would give him a reason to make a move.
…………
As the days passed, there were as many as seventeen marks left on the head of the bed with his fingernails, and Gu Qi had already figured out the structure of the insane asylum, knowing where the ward was, where the nurse stayed, and where the doctor's office was.
But Miao Yi has never been able to find it.
Gu Qi is still patient, but his brain can't wait any longer, it's too real here, so real that he can't find the slightest flaw, there are countless people every day, countless times calling himself Steven or Guy, if he listens too much, his brain will become confused, and he can only call himself Gu Qi in his heart, he is afraid that as soon as he says it, he will be recognized as sick.
Hiding the pills between his gums and the skin of his mouth, Gu Qi can save at least twelve pills a day, sometimes a few more, Gu Qi has cigarettes, matches, candles, glue, piles of paper cups and toilet paper.
On the eighteenth day of his arrival in the Illusion, he was drying a soaked stack of toilet paper when the door to the hospital room suddenly opened.
It is not a time to let the wind out, it is not a meal time, and it is a special case for the ward to be opened.
Berwick rushed in, slapped the stack of toilet paper off Gu Qi's hand, and asked, "What are you doing?" What's that? ”
"Toilet paper, this shouldn't be a forbidden item, right?" Gu Qi picked up the stack of papers and put them on the windowsill.
Toilet paper can't be a prohibited item, otherwise it wouldn't be hanging in the toilet, Berwick didn't care about it, but handed over a restrictive gown, and said, "Dr. Elvis heard that your condition is improving, and he plans to see you, hehe, if your madness is cured, don't forget to thank me." ”
"I will." Gu Qi said lightly, took the restraint suit and put it on.
Tightening the strap, Berwick pushed Gu Qi and walked to Elvis's office.
This was the second time Gu Qi had seen Elvis.
Elvis put on a white coat this time, saw Gu Qi smiled, made a gesture of please, and said: "Mr. Guy, it's nice to meet you, I'm glad you walked in, I've heard about your performance during this time, it's really surprising." ”-
