"Really, why is the life of a rich boy so hard." In the messy guardhouse, the old TV sets reported the latest news, old Frank muttered and complained while drinking, his brown eyes cloudy and arrogant, and his blue-gray guard uniform looked messy, but as a guard in a mental hospital, you can't ask for too much from him.
Arkham Asylum, full name: Elizabeth. Arkham Mental Illness Crime Asylum, this hospital in the suburbs of Gotham City has a completely different admission popularity, as the most famous mental hospital in Gotham City, almost half of the hospital is incarcerated by supervillains who can bring devastating blows to the city, it can be said that it is famous, if it is not for the extreme danger of these criminals, just selling tickets is enough to make Dean Sapp make a lot of money.
However, although most of the patients in this psychiatric hospital are extremely dangerous, there are still a small number of relatively "safe and ordinary" patients who are admitted to the hospital, after all, as a regular psychiatric hospital, although it is used as a "temporary prison" by a superhero, it is still quite professional and inclusive.
"Toot, toot~" The shrill sound of the horn interrupted old Frank's leisure time, and he frowned and leaned out to see the ambulance of the hospital parked outside the guardhouse, although he was quite dissatisfied with these impolite ambulance drivers, but he still had to get up from the guardhouse to make a routine record.
Bang bang, holding a black rubber baton in one hand, he deliberately knocked on the glass window of the ambulance, and old Frank said with an angry expression, "Say, what kind of goods did you get today?" He always had an inexplicable sense of superiority over the patients in the hospital, so he never looked at these poor people squarely.
Rolling down the window revealed a middle-aged driver with a scumbag face, he seemed familiar with old Frank's cross-examination, although he cursed more than once in his heart that this current drunkard could still stay, but he still had to show a reluctant smile to deal with, "It's nothing, it's just an ordinary patient, I heard that he was reported by pedestrian......s for going crazy on Street Three" Indeed, compared to those supervillains in Arkham, the patients in the ambulance can indeed only be described as ordinary.
It seems that in any novel or TV movie, the psychiatric hospital will always be synonymous with darkness and horror, and the gray buildings are decorated with all kinds of strange mental patients and ruthless psychiatrists, but it is clear that this kind of artistic exaggeration does not exist in Arkham Mental Hospital, where the sky is blue, the grass is green and fragrant, and the relationship between doctors and patients is harmonious.
Of course, all because of Quincy. With the arrival of Tharp, the ambitious new director of Arkham Mental Hospital, is not only satisfied with the status of a mental hospital director, the next mayor of Gotham City is his real purpose, and how to use Arkham in order to be elected has become his most important purpose.
……
Bang dang! The violent shaking sound woke Zhou Ran from his coma, his brain was groggy as if he had been viciously punched by a fist, the tip of his nose was a pungent smell of disinfectant, and he barely opened his eyes to see the rows of dazzling lights in the hospital corridor, "Is this a hospital, why am I here?" ”
The fragmentary memories in his brain were like fragments of tape, and all that remained in Zhou Ran's last memory was the panicked face of the truck driver, "Really?" It turned out that I crashed the car, but I didn't expect to survive. Suddenly thinking that he could survive such a terrible car accident, even Zhou Ran felt extremely lucky, this is not just a lucky description, it is simply a miracle.
However, just when Zhou Ran sighed at the miracle of his survival, another unavoidable question came to his mind, that is, since he was hit by a car, why did he not feel the physical pain at all, the kind of severe pain that could make people shock when the bones were broken and the muscles were crushed, but it was not reflected in his body at all, in fact, at this moment, he felt that he couldn't lift his strength up and down, and there was no worse situation.
Immediately afterwards, with the emergence of doubts, Zhou Ran immediately found more problems, first of all, he couldn't move, yes, although he could feel that all parts of his body were intact, but he just couldn't move, laboriously lifted the only neck that could be turned, what he saw in his eyes was on his body, the strong and firm buckle that tied him tightly with the hospital bed, this is definitely not the way ordinary hospitals treat patients.
Bang dang, bang dang! The black nurse wearing a mask laboriously pushed Zhou Ran and the bed into the slightly narrow ward, fixed it, Zhou Ran barely swept the layout of the ward into his eyes through the bedside, it didn't look like a big ward, but it was unexpectedly good, the pale wall was reflected on Zhou Ran's pale face, and there was no disturbance from other patients, if there was a small regret, it was the small pitiful railing iron window on the ward door.
"Where is this?" Looking at the tall black nurse in a hoarse voice, the long-term lack of water made Zhou Ran's voice as piercing as a file, once again explaining his weak physical condition at the moment.
"......" silently untied the buckle on Zhou Ran's body, the black nurse did not answer his question, and completed the work at hand by himself, no matter how normal the patient seemed on the surface in Arkham Asylum, he could not hide the fact of his patient, and all a nurse like him could do was pay less attention and do more.
After removing the firm buckle, Zhou Ran first felt a sense of relief, although he still didn't have any strength on his body, but it was better than being tied like a mummy all the time, and after sorting out the matters around him, the black nurse turned around and left the ward without any intention of staying, and the only thing that came to his ears was the sound of the lock locked from the outside.
The lock on the ward is on the outside?! Suddenly, a strong sense of uneasiness emerged in Zhou Ran's heart, everything that this hospital brought him was too strange, and it was definitely not an ordinary hospital.
