The elongated siren constantly irritated my ears from far and near. It didn't seem to be an auditory hallucination, there must have been something going on downstairs, and I could already see the flickering lights in the distance through the floor.

Does it have anything to do with the dark shadow I just saw? I thought strangely.

I wouldn't know anything if I stayed here anyway, and I came to my senses and trotted down the stairs briskly.

As soon as I arrived on the first floor, I saw a large crowd of people in the dark surrounding the main entrance from a distance. Most of them were my colleagues, and there was a lot of talk from men and women. I said, "Why can't you see anyone up there, it's all gathered here."

They all formed a semicircle facing the main entrance, and the police behind them were really clearing the road.

"Let it go, let it all go. We are a criminal police team, don't get in the way of our work! A vibrant-sounding female voice shouted.

It seemed that I couldn't get out of the main gate, so I turned around and went to the side door. The side door is near the elevator entrance, which is a small emergency escape route, and usually the staff can't walk. But it doesn't bother me, I'm not an unrelated person, I have the key.

After opening the door with the key, there is a square garden in front of us. It's better not to act sneaky at this point, I don't know what's going on. If the police find out, I'm going to get in some trouble if I sneak through the side door like this.

The ability of the police in this city is really not ordinarily high, not that I blow, because of the concern of work, I have been in contact with a lot of police, and I know very well that every little police officer here can be a team leader when he goes outside.

Eventually, I decided to walk over and see what was going on. It's better to take the initiative to go over and make a record than to be invited to the police station.

"What's going on?" Unexpectedly, in the group of policemen who arrived, I saw a familiar face.

"Yo! Isn't this a little doctor? You're working here, huh? "The policeman I stopped looked surprised.

His name is Wang Keqiang. From my point of view, his well-worked, well-trained body is full of muscles and dark skin. A pair of eyes that are not too big are bright, with a high nose bridge, but the mouth is very large.

We have known each other for a long time. Speaking of which, the two of us are still related, our parents have been good friends for a long time. His family has been a police officer for generations, which makes me wonder how my parents, who are engaged in academic research, could know such a family.

He played with me all the time when we were bare-bottomed kids, and we've been in the same school ever since. This seems to have been deliberately done by both of our parents. In short, during that time, when other children or classmates were afraid of my eyes, he was the only one who would talk to me without any scruples.

He is one of the few people who does not have the physical and mental machines. Say whatever you want in your heart, and never lie. I can absolutely guarantee that no one can lie in front of me.

This person's personality is very straightforward, at best it is bold and open-minded, at worst it is a lack of heart. So he's one of the few friends who makes me feel pressured at first. For my own sake, I have few friends, and I look like I have the same mind-reading skills.

They were either far away from me, or they were skeptical and spoke to me. It's a very tiring thing, in fact, I don't have any interest in the so-called privacy of those people, and I don't see anyone who will analyze his personality.

Wang Keqiang went out to attend the police academy when I was in high school, and we didn't see each other for a long time. My ability to analyze psycho has long been spread in our hospital, and from time to time some police officers will come to me to help solve the case. According to some police officers who are very happy to work with, I am even more effective than a lie detector.

That's how we got back together, and I was really surprised. The so-called fate is so interesting, the city I chose casually turned out to be the place where he was assigned to work. However, because their case was very serious, we didn't be able to say a few words, and we dispersed without leaving contact information.

"There's just such a psychiatric clinic in this city, where can I be if I'm not here?" We laughed and hammered each other's shoulders, which was our usual way of greeting.

"Oh my God! Is this a place for neurosis? Wang Keqiang was very surprised, his jaw was about to fall off with his mouth open. I always thought you were some big guy above us! ”

"Wang Dazui hasn't seen you like this for so long." I said helplessly. "Please distinguish between neurosis and mental illness, it is the madhouse that is in charge of neurosis, not our mental clinic."

"You still say that me, haven't you changed after so long, and you still call me with a big mouth. And do you have a wide area called a clinic? How can this be hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, right? Our city hospital isn't that big, is it? "Wang Dazui also has a problem, that is, poor mouth. As soon as the conversation box opened, I couldn't stop it, so I kept calling him Big Mouth, which was a pun.

"This is where we work, and you see the rest of the building. It's not a staff dormitory, it's just a square garden. "In order to make the patients feel happy, our place is not inferior to the large parks in the city. Because of this, it attracts many citizens during the day.

Our director is also very generous, and never charges entrance fees from these citizens. However, I heard that this seems to be an order issued by the city, and it is absolutely not allowed to cause dissatisfaction among the citizens. Ever since I learned about this inside story, I have understood how reckless the gains and losses are in order to improve law and order in the city.

"So you're a psychiatrist! It's really for nothing, brother, that I'm blown up in the police force. Wang Dazui said disappointedly.

"What do you think of me, I've only been here for a few months, what kind of big man can I be." I said.

"Then why did you come to us? The last time I saw you, I was too busy to ask, and sure enough, it was because of the "After seeing my expression, he immediately stopped talking."

To be honest, it was definitely a forbidden area for me, a forbidden area for no one to step into. I think my expression must be very distorted right now

"Forget it, don't care. I'm just a job transfer, don't talk about that. "I'm trying to change the subject." What's going on up ahead? ”

He must have been taken aback by my expression, and froze for a few seconds before he realized that I was asking him.

"Ahh That's what you say? It's not a common thing lately, there's a girl jumping off the roof of your building. ”

"You say someone killed themselves?" As soon as I heard this, I thought that Wang Dazui was teasing me. Could it be that the dark shadow I saw in the corridor on the third floor just now?

But I could tell by his expression right away that he was serious. This kind of person is the type who absolutely can't hide things in his heart, and it's already something written into his genes, and it's so ingrained that I have to believe it.

We have the largest mental health facility in the city, and because of the large number of people with mental illness who come in and out, the guns in our building are soft to the touch. The security is also surprisingly tight, with surveillance cameras everywhere except the toilets. How did the man climb upstairs and commit suicide?

It's no wonder that Wang Dazui treats this place as a madhouse, compared with the psychological clinics in other provinces and cities, we do have something special here.

Actually, this was not the case when it was first built, it was no different from a normal clinic, but it was a little bigger. All the changes were forced, because in the beginning the suicide rate was indeed the highest in the city. Some patients come in for a casual consultation as if they were joking with us, and then run to suicide before we can take treatment measures.

For a long time, we were jokingly called a suicide mecca here.

This is not alarmism, or anything is legend. I have witnessed several patients hit the wall, and they don't think of ordinary suicidal people at all, and I can see from their eyes and expressions before they die that they have no hesitation and a very clear purpose. It's as clear as if we had to eat and sleep every day. Most of the eyes were dead, they didn't look like living people at all, and it seemed to me that those people were nightmares themselves, just black human forms.

What strikes me even more strange is that many of those who commit suicide are not our patients, but family members or friends who accompany them.

It's incredible, there was a man who committed suicide here, I remember very clearly. She was the older sister of a child who had a little bit of autism, which was not a big deal. And she herself is very cheerful, and her mental state is also very good when she first comes in, which is a rare "orange" in this city. But I don't know why, I accompanied my brother here a total of five times, and the fifth time she committed suicide here.

I asked the child's psychiatrist afterwards and got no useful information, so she committed suicide inexplicably

In order to prevent this incident from happening again, we closed for three months to carry out a thorough rectification, including personnel training and improvement of facilities, and a group of people have been working here for a long time. The effect is obvious, and by the time this place opened, no one had succeeded in committing suicide.

Notice what I said that no one succeeds in suicide, and there are still people here who commit suicide from time to time.

"Not really! She seems to have sneaked into the hallway while the power was out, and no one noticed. "The king's mouth suddenly approached my ear piercing, and whispered another word to me." I'm just telling you this, don't spread it, otherwise it will definitely cause panic. ”

My curiosity was piqued at once, and I nodded immediately.

"You guys think it's a power outage, and we suspect it's the girl who committed suicide." Wang Dazui quietly revealed.

"How do you know?" I asked.

"You didn't see the body, it's miserable." Wang Dazui sighed. "I've seen a lot of people kill themselves since I came here, but I really haven't seen anyone who wants to die so much. It's not clear to say yes, this is the photo we want to show the forensic doctor, and you're not an outsider, just look at it and know what I mean. ”

After speaking, Wang Dazui took out a few photos from the leather pocket of his upper body, all of which were about the deceased. Judging from the body type, it should be a teenage girl, and there is no face photographed, but the arms are photographed.

It can be seen that it should be a problem with the angle of falling, and one of the child's arms shows a very strange curved angle, and it seems that she jumped from a very high place.

But what worries me the most is not the angle, but the color of her arms, which is not normal skin color at all. Most of the skin is charred black, and in some particularly serious places, the flesh has been turned out, a blood-red, shocking and uncomfortable look.

"Did she set herself on fire before jumping off the building?" I asked curiously.

"It's not self-immolation, it's a trace of being electrified." Wang Dazui said with some emotion. "We've just checked your power room, it's a mess, and you can see that everything has been destroyed like crazy. The electric switch is especially serious there, and combined with these photos, we think it was this girl who did it. ”

I finally understood what was going on with Wang Dazui's sentence that I had never seen a person who wanted to die so much. Suicide by touching the electric door is not the first case in our place, after the transformation, we install the most advanced leakage protection device, you just smash the electric switch down, and it will not be electrified. And if it is too damaged, it will automatically cut off the power to this building.

But this girl is obviously crazier, she may have pulled all the cables out of the wall. But thanks to our complete makeover, in the end she wasn't electrocuted either.

"After she failed to commit suicide by electrocution, she chose to jump off the building, right?" I whispered.

"That's pretty much it, and although we haven't found conclusive evidence yet, it's not far from ten." Wang Dazui retracted the photo and said.

What a crazy person, who would do so much to commit suicide.

"You guys are really a place of quick right and wrong, and many people have committed suicide before, right?" Wang Dazui looked at me worriedly. "I think you should change jobs quickly, maybe this place is a little unclean"

I smacked him on the shoulder with my hand again, "Say what! What kind of detective are you? Do you believe in this kind of ghost theory? ”

"It's not that I believe, but I tell you that if you believe it, if you don't believe it, you don't believe it. I've been in this city much longer than you, and we've had seven or eight bureau chiefs in the past two years. Every time I came, I was full of ambition and wanted to completely clean up the security of this place. But none of them succeeded, and our current director would say at every turn that the city was like a curse. Wang Dazui said it very carefully.

After that, we chatted about gossip for a while, left each other's phone calls, and made an appointment to be together for a long time next time, and Wang Dazui went back to work. In order not to get in trouble, I also went home quickly.

The cities that he was talking about that kept spinning in my head, lingering, cursed? It's ridiculous, how could I possibly believe such nonsense. I came to this city of my own volition, and the only possibility of leaving here is that I don't want to stay.

Lying in bed, I gradually fell into sleep. And the news on the TV that I forgot to turn off continued to broadcast the suicide of a young girl that happened to me.
