On a long-distance bus on the outskirts of the city, a little boy is sitting in a window seat, looking out of the window with a pair of bright and curious eyes.

It was his first trip in his life, based on his mother's job change.

Suddenly, the boy saw a black cat running by the side of the road.

Crossed the road and disappeared in sight.

The black cat is fast, at least much faster than a bus.

It was like a black lightning bolt that flashed outside the car.

If it weren't for the cat's footsteps stopping for a moment.

The boy wasn't even sure that it was a passing wild cat.

Is there a cat in this world that runs so fast?

The child couldn't help but be very curious.

At the same time, I want to know where that strange black cat came from and where it is going.

He looked around, only to see that there were no clues to look for.

It seems that the cat just suddenly appeared and disappeared for a certain moment.

This made the child more and more surprised, and inevitably some regret.

I regret that I didn't look more closely just now.

The roads on the outskirts of the city are lined with lush forests and fields.

Under the warm morning sun, those natural landscapes are also particularly beautiful.

The child opened the window and let fresh air into the carriage.

As time passed, his mood gradually returned to calm.

But his thoughts didn't stop.

His doubts about the black cat were still circling back and forth in his mind, and he couldn't forget them for a long time.

The child pondered for a moment, and suddenly felt that the various scenes at the moment might be somewhat similar to some ghost stories.

This made his heart tremble, and then, he felt both scared and nervous.

Thereupon.

The boy reached out and tugged at the corner of his mother's coat.

"Mom, I just saw a wild cat running faster than a car, why is that?"

"Hehe, silly boy, how can a wild cat run faster than a car."

"But, I really saw it."

"Lele, good children can't lie."

"No, I'm not lying, I'm really, whoa."

The boy who became more and more aggrieved the more he talked, because of the relationship he was afraid of, finally couldn't help crying loudly.

Several passengers covered their ears and several opened their faces sideways.

However, in the traffic that gradually merges into the main road.

A noisy bus, however, is not necessarily very special.

The closer you get to the city, the more crowded the road becomes.

Whenever people move in unison, it's easy to ignore the individual.

……

Downai City.

It's a big city in the truest sense of the word.

The midday sun shines brightly in the city center, and the roads shimmer with dazzling light, which is the reflection of office buildings and glass windows.

People are walking back and forth in a hurry, as if time is always happy to run in this fast-paced city.

On both sides of the street, tall buildings can't block the sun overhead, and the open square can still feel the winter sun, but no one enjoys the warmth and sunshine here.

In the coffee shop on the side of the road, scattered crowds are sitting indoors eating, chatting and reading, or sitting and resting, probably very relaxed. The music is playing in the store, and the sound of tableware colliding constitutes a rare leisure in the city.

In this city, there are many buildings whose facades are sprayed in bright colors and they are keen to stimulate all the senses.

But the house is square, comparable to a cage, layered on top of each other, straight into the blue sky.

It's full of personality, but it seems monotonous.

The city at noon is a city full of prosperity and vitality.

Whether it's a business park, or a university and an apartment.

All the buildings and residents seem to be doing what they have to do.

They believe in busyness and love to be idle.

I can't stop, but I often wake up, and even sigh at the emptiness and emptiness of life.

That's right.

This is perhaps the most distinctive and three-dimensional feature of a large city.

They tend to cling to contradictions.

Obsessed with, the total contradiction inside and out.

……

Jiang Sheng didn't like such a bustling place, not that he felt that there was something wrong with the city.

It just doesn't fit in.

So the problem, too, may be its own.

I'm probably not normal, Jiang Sheng thought.

Therefore, when it walks, it likes to take remote paths.

On the first day of arriving in Luotai City, Jiang Sheng decided to find the so-called GHC Hospital first.

This is obviously not a difficult thing, not to mention that the black cat also used his mobile phone in advance to check the specific location on the news report.

So much so that it didn't take long for Jiang Sheng to come to the vicinity of the hospital with the help of some insect senses.

In fact, GHC is not only a simple psychiatric hospital, it is also a key Grade A general hospital in Luotai City, so there are always many patients in the hospital.

In front of the hospital, people walked in a hurry, carrying medical bags or medical records, which seemed to be ordinary, but in fact they behaved heavily.

Above the main gate, a large metal sign hangs.

There are also detailed signage at the bottom, so that people who come to see a doctor can find the outpatient clinic and department they want to see.

Most of the buildings in the neighborhood are gray and white.

At first glance, it can be described as solemn.

But that's exactly what it is.

When they are cast by the light, the white walls are even more mottled.

This place, it must have just rained last night.

Because there were still traces of water on the ground in the corner of the wall.

Jiang Sheng squatted in the flower bed next to the sidewalk, peeking left and right at the passing doctors and patients and family members.

There is no calamity.

There are also no obvious anomalies.

In ordinary hospitals, even the spirits that appeared after death never appeared.

It seems that if you want to understand the situation, you still have to find the mental patient on the news.

"Uh-huh, uh-huh (I don't like hospitals)."

As Jiang Sheng pondered, the cage girl suddenly said faintly in the bottom of the black cat's heart.

"It's okay, we won't stay long."

Jiang Sheng, who was just passing by to take a look, actually didn't think that he could find any important clues on this trip.

After all, according to its own psychological expectations.

Even with the help of the rain curtain and the information of the insect swarm, it would have to run a few cities at least before it could catch the tail of the strange synergy.

Otherwise, if I go to a city and encounter a batch of psionic crimes, then my luck will be too good.

Jiang Sheng thought and was about to leave the flower bed.

And then it's behind it.

Outside the main gate of the hospital.

There were two cars that crashed violently into each other.
