Chapter 37: A Knock at the Door in the Middle of the Night
Wang Pu thought about it and felt that it might not be impossible.
Although according to his understanding, nightmare killings generally arouse the fear of others first and absorb the negative emotions of people's hearts.
However, he knows too little about nightmares, and everything he knows is based on the nightmares he has encountered, as well as the information he got from the conversations between Zhao Tengju and Zhou Zhengqi.
According to the dialogue between Zhao Tengju and Zhou Zhengqi, the slaughterer is only a nightmare in the first stage, and it is obvious that the nightmare has a higher-level state.
Moreover, the nightmare itself is a fantasy that comes from the fear of the human heart, and it is not impossible to do whatever it takes.
"Anyway, find a reason to stay, search for the traces of the nightmare, and investigate the Grim Reaper. Even if what Fang Hong said is true, the Grim Reaper really exists, according to what Fang Hong said, the Grim Reaper took away all the old people, and I shouldn't be in danger. ”
Wang Pu made a phone call to Zhao Sheng and asked Zhao Sheng to help arrange it.
With Zhao Sheng's ability, it is easy to arrange a ward for him, and it is best to arrange a room with those older people.
He's going to keep watch.
Soon, Zhao Sheng did it according to Wang Pu's request, and Wang Pu was admitted to Ward 501.
At the same time, Zhao Sheng said to Wang Pu: "Mr. Wang, Zhou Zhengqi called me this morning to ask about Xiaosheng, he didn't know that Xiaosheng's nightmare had been solved, and I rejected him again, I'm afraid I can't hide this matter." With Zhou Zhengqi's forces, it should soon be found on your head, do you need me to send a few bodyguards over? ”
"Huh?"
Wang Pu frowned.
However, the exposure of his identity was expected, and he was not too surprised.
"No, I can handle it myself." Wang Pu said.
Ordinary people can't deal with the awakened at all, and it's useless to come.
Besides, what he was afraid of was always the wealth and power that Zhou Zhengqi held, and in terms of personal ability, he thought that even if he was not as good as Zhou Zhengqi, he was enough to protect himself.
Now cooperating with Zhao Sheng, with Zhao Sheng's help blocking Zhou Zhengqi's power and oppression, lest Zhou Zhengqi put pressure on him from other aspects, and he can handle the rest.
"In that case, then be careful yourself." Zhao Sheng hung up the phone.
Wang Pu once again probed the inpatient building, memorized the layout of the building's rooms, and prepared for dealing with nightmares.
It's a pity that after walking around a few times, he still couldn't find the trace of the nightmare, which made Wang Pu have some regrets.
Midnight.
The hospital was silent, with no one in sight except for the lights in the hallway, and the nurses resting in the lounge.
Wang Pu's eyes were closed, and his spirit was clear.
The strengthening of the strong Vajra palm made his physical fitness higher, and his mental will became much stronger, even if he didn't sleep for a few days and nights, he could hold on.
Since he wants to investigate the nightmare and the matter of the "Grim Reaper", Wang Pu naturally will not fall asleep, and concentrate and pay attention to the wind and grass in the surrounding environment.
In the same room with him was an old man with a cold, who was old, and a little problem was very fatal, and he lived here for several days, and he kept hanging on a drip.
It's a pity that the hospital is so big, and there are more elderly people than that.
Wang Pu is also not sure whether the "Grim Reaper" will come.
Bang, bang......
Suddenly, a knock on the door rang out under the silent night sky, echoing through the deserted corridor.
Wang Pu's heart suddenly sank, and his ears moved slightly.
Someone's knocking on the door!
Not his hospital room, but listening to the voice, it should be on the same floor.
Could it really be that the "Grim Reaper" is coming?
Just now, I was thinking about the "Grim Reaper" in my heart, but now there was a knock on the door, and Wang Pu couldn't help but care.
However, Wang Pu used the Mighty Vajra Palm to strengthen his perception of nightmares, and after probing, he didn't find the kind of negative aura unique to nightmares.
"It shouldn't be a nightmare, maybe it's a nurse's round!"
Wang Pu thought in his heart, feeling that he was too careful.
Wait a minute!
How can there be no footsteps on the nurse's rounds!
Suddenly, Wang Pu's heart shrank violently, and he sensed that something was wrong.
There was a knock on the door, but he didn't hear anything until then.
You know, it's the middle of the night, it's the dead of night, and if you're on the same floor, even the footsteps at the end of the hallway, he should be able to hear it.
Not to mention him, it's just an ordinary person who hasn't been strengthened, and he can sense it if he listens attentively.
As for the room where the knock was on, Wang Pu was sure that it was not far from his ward, and it was even more impossible for him not to hear the knock.
Thinking of this, Wang Pu immediately turned over and got up, opened the door suddenly, and looked in the direction of the knock in the corridor.
No one!
Wang Pu's pupils shrank, he obviously heard a knock on the door, and there was no sound of opening the door just now, if it was really a nurse round, it was absolutely impossible to leave so quickly.
Sure enough, there is a situation!
Wang Pu immediately walked towards the room where there was a knock on the door, was it 506 or 508?
Although it can be roughly known that the knock on the door is from several nearby rooms, it is a little difficult for Wang Pu to determine which one it is.
Fortunately, at this moment, the door of room 506 opened, and an old man with silver hair and age spots on his face, who looked to be in his seventies, opened the door and walked out.
Seeing Wang Pu, the old man was suddenly a little puzzled: "Young man, were you knocking on the door just now?" ”
It was determined that it was Ward 506 that was knocked on the door.
And according to what Fang Hong told him, it was the old man in front of him who was targeted by the "Grim Reaper".
It's just that Wang Pu didn't find a nightmare in the old man.
"No, I just happened to be passing by."
Wang Pu denied it, and then asked, "By the way, old man, did you encounter anything wrong just now?" ”
He felt that the old man would be a breakthrough.
"Something is wrong?"
The old man was a little confused by Wang Pu's words, and glanced at Wang Pu seriously with wide eyes, his face was a little unsightly: "Isn't it you, you don't sleep in the middle of the night, you come over to disturb people's sleep, and lie to me, you are alone here, not the door you knocked, who knocked on the door!" ”
At the same time, another middle-aged man in the ward was awakened, got up and looked at the old man, and wondered: "Dad, why are you up, are you thirsty?" Didn't I say it, tell me if you're thirsty, I'm going to get hot water, why did you get up by yourself. The doctor told you to rest more, you have just had surgery, and you can't move casually. ”
The middle-aged man was a little annoyed and hurriedly walked over to support the old man.
Wang Pu also took the opportunity to look at the ward.
There are three beds in the ward, all of which are occupied, and the bed for the elderly is the innermost.
It stands to reason that the hospital ward is not locked, and if someone really wants to enter, just open the door.
There was no need for the old man to get up and open the door.
Moreover, even if you want to open the door, it is only the middle-aged man who will open it, and the old man only needs to call the middle-aged man, so why bother to do it yourself.
