Chapter 47: The Morgue
"Little brother, what do you see?" Both of them were frightened by my appearance, Ye Lao asked.
I was half-crouching and panting. Wait, what did I see? I thought I saw a zombie just now because I was too scared, but when I think about it calmly, it doesn't seem to be like that.
I asked Ye Lao to borrow the flashlight again, and slowly opened the iron cover again. The hideous face stared at me the moment I lifted the lid, but it didn't move.
It wasn't a zombie, it was a corpse! I breathed a sigh of relief, lifted the lid all the way, and climbed out. The corpse just lay down nearby, reaching for the well.
When Xiao Rou climbed out, she was also startled by this scene, crossed her arms, and asked uneasily, "Where is this?" ”
yes, where is this? I picked up my flashlight and looked around, only to find that what I had thought was the dining table turned out to be a hospital bed, on which were placed corpses, each covered with a white cloth, and people couldn't help but worry that these corpses would suddenly sit up. In addition, there is a circle of iron cabinets on the wall, and corpses are also displayed in the iron cabinets. It turned out to be a morgue.
So, we're in the hospital? Why did you suddenly get to the hospital? And why is there a pipe leading to the subway under the hospital? It's incredible!
Compared with zombies, Xiao Rou seemed to be more afraid of these dead people covered with white cloths, holding my hand tightly, sweat made my palms **, she lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry......"
At this time, Ye Lao smiled hoarsely: "It is said that there is no endless road, little brother, you really bet on the treasure, and you will take us to the hospital directly...... By the way, just now Lao Yu agreed with Mr. Xiao Jiu that after finding you, I will take you to the operating room on the third floor together, time waits for no one, let's go immediately! ”
I nodded, but to be honest, I didn't know exactly where the morgue was or how to get to the operating room on the third floor, so I had to go to find it.
We walked past the beds where the bodies were placed, and suddenly a hand came out of the white cloth, causing Xiaorou to scream in fright. I was also excited, and hurriedly shone it with a flashlight, and it was not until after a while that there was no response that I took a long breath. As I was about to leave, I noticed something strange about my outstretched hand.
"What are you going to do, senior?" Xiao Rou asked worriedly.
I slowly lifted the white cloth of the shroud, and a thick smell of corpse immediately came to my face, and the corpse had begun to rot and dry up, so I quickly put the white cloth back on.
No way? I whispered in my heart, so I lifted the white cloth from the hospital bed next to me, and it was true! Open another one, and it's still the same!
"What's wrong, little brother?" Ye Lao also came over and asked when he saw my abnormal behavior.
I shuddered, why is this happening? This is abnormal! I know something must have happened in this morgue, no, something very ominous in this whole hospital.
I told them that just now I noticed that the hand outstretched from the white cloth was wearing a white-sleeved garment, and I thought that it might be a doctor's white robe. I didn't expect that the white cloth was lifted, and the corpses on the second and third beds were also doctors......
"Why not the body of the patient but the doctor?"
Hearing this, Ye Lao also lifted a few white cloths nearby, all of which were the clothes of medical staff. And he was keenly aware that most of these corpses had been fatally wounded, either shot or struck or with a sharp blade through vital organs.
"What the hell happened here?" This question suddenly hung over us like a dark cloud, and we were both shocked and confused.
No matter what had happened here, we didn't have time to delve into it, so we followed Ye Lao out of the morgue and into a silent corridor. On one side of the corridor against the wall was a long, cold iron chair, and opposite the iron chair were several rooms with no door plates, the doors of which were closed and dark inside.
We ran down the hallway, shoes on the smooth tiles making the ethereal sound of tuk-tuk-tuk.
"Look at the old decay ......" Ye Lao suddenly spoke, and he was so frightened that we who were concentrating on running were excited.
"Sorry to scare you?" He laughed.
"No, it's okay, Senior Ye, what did you think of?" I say.
"In my opinion, the hospital was a closed shelter, but then a gang broke into it and brutally murdered the medical staff there," he said. ”
I nodded, and it was not difficult to draw such a conclusion from what I had just discovered.
The old man continued: "However, from the wounds of the corpses, it can be seen that this group of people is not ordinary people, and many fatal injuries are killed in one hit, at least it is an organized gang......"
By this time we had run out of the hallway and into an open field that looked like a parking lot, and I shone it with a flashlight, and several staggering dead appeared in the halo. We ignored it and ran straight up the wide slope with the gate next to us.
Above the ramp is a more spacious parking lot, full of cars. In other words, the location of the morgue is still below the parking lot, and it is impossible for the average person to know about this location.
We ran down the aisle of the parking lot towards a stairwell opposite, with "↑ Lobby" written on the wall of the stairwell.
We trotted all the way, using flashlights all the way to check the parked cars on both sides, for fear that there would be an undead hidden behind the car, and pounce on us as we passed.
After confirming that the surroundings were safe, Ye Lao continued: "Where did you talk about it just now...... That's right, organized gangs. In addition to their killing skills, another point is that they transported the people they killed to the morgue and covered them with white cloths, indicating that they had a certain degree of discipline when occupying the place, and were not ordinary rangers......
I bowed slightly, surprised by the old man's thoughtfulness.
He let out a smug laugh: "Don't look at my old age, I was also a member of the reconnaissance team forty or fifty years ago, fighting the enemy in the jungle, if I hadn't mastered the clues provided by the jungle, I would have died ten times ago." ”
With that, we came to the stairwell, which was also pitch black, and could only illuminate parts of the space with the narrow light of a flashlight. We climbed straight up to the third floor, then pushed open the staircase door and came to the hallway on the third floor.
A large sign reads "ENT". On both sides of the corridor are a number of infirmaries: ENT (1 room), ENT (2 rooms), ENT (3 rooms...... And so on.
The doors on both sides were open and closed, but no matter how they were opened and closed, they revealed an atmosphere of horror.
There was silence all around, and Ye Lao continued: "Little Brother Ah Chen, do you remember the corpse by the well that we saw at first sight when we came out of the deep well just now? ”
I nodded, I can't forget the look of horror when I lifted the manhole cover.
"I don't know if you noticed a detail, there is a broken tile next to the manhole cover, I guess it is used to cover up the existence of the deep well......"
At this time, we were passing through one department after another, and I was terrified every time I passed, as if I had returned to the day of the outbreak, carrying Xiao Lin through one classroom after another.
Ye Lao didn't seem to be scared at all, and was still talking: "The corpse by the well didn't stink, which means that it didn't die at the same time as the corpse on the hospital bed." And the man wasn't wearing a lab coat, so I think it's probably one of the group......"
I hope that Ye Lao can go to a safe place before continuing his investigation, but I don't know how to speak.
He continued: "The fact that the man's hand was pointing to the mouth of the well before he died, indicating that he must have known about the existence of the wellhead, and at the same time, it was a deep well leading to the subway station, so the old man thought that this deep well was most likely dug by the gang. ”
By this time we had almost reached the end of the corridor, and there was no movement in the departments we passed along the way. Now, if you push open the door in front of you, you can walk out of the hall on the third floor and from the hall to the operating room.
Ye Lao seemed to open the conversation box and continued to talk about his reasoning, suddenly, I heard a scream, and then in the light, I saw a zombie rushing out of the department next to Ye Lao, and threw him to the ground with a stunned face. I was taken aback and was about to step forward to help him, but the flashlight suddenly ran out of power, and I couldn't turn it on.
(Thank you for your recommendation and collection, and there will be a more in the evening!) )
