Lin Youde tried to calm himself down.

Although his rapid heartbeat could not be calmed down immediately, his mind had returned to a normal state, and he was able to think about the current countermeasures.

He didn't stay much in the monitoring room of the inpatient building. The monitor that has been damaged, he will not repair. He thought of the general control room, located in the logistics administration building. The surveillance there does not see the situation inside the inpatient building, but the surveillance of several roads outside the building is controlled by the main control room, and the situation at the entrance of the building can be filmed.

Lin Youde thought of Li Yun who walked out of the inpatient building, and immediately rushed to the administrative building of the central hospital.

His running figure like this is very rare in a crowded hospital. It is like a fish swimming against the current, walking through the rough waves.

Fortunately, Lin Youde is still young, and his body has not been torn down by busy work. It didn't take him much time to rush to the administration building, and he still had extra energy to observe the crowd around him along the way, making sure that he didn't see Li Yun.

Have you already left, or have you already entered the administration building?

Lin Youde was worried in his heart.

His heart was still beating at a high rate, and his eardrum was shaken and ached.

He found the general monitoring room, pushed the door in, and saw the startled security captain.

"Officer Lin." The security captain greeted and wondered, "...... are you?"

"Turn on the surveillance at the entrance of the inpatient building, ten minutes ago." Lin Youde was out of breath, his voice was soft, but he spoke clearly.

The security captain hurriedly operated the console and pointed to Lin Youde's screen, "That screen is a few monitors at the entrance of the inpatient building." ”

The time of the surveillance video was reversed ten minutes, and a snowflake screen appeared on the screen.

"Huh, what's going on?" Beads of sweat oozed from the security captain's head.

He knew why Lin Youde and several other police officers were stationed in the hospital during this time. Such a serious and vicious case, not only the judicial system of Yaocheng attaches great importance to it, but other government departments are also required to cooperate with the police. Coupled with the unexplained sudden death of one of the survivors a few days ago, there was a little more pressure inside the central hospital.

"Xiao Wang, come and see this video." The security captain hurriedly called out to his subordinates who were engaged in technology.

Xiao Wang tinkered with the monitoring station for a long time, and there was no way to resume the video.

The snowflake screen was very dazzling in a normal color screen, as if it was laughing at Lin Youde's vain scheming.

Lin Youde asked, "Can you find out what the reason is?" Has anyone ever been in the monitoring room before? ”

"No, no, absolutely no one has ever come in." The security captain hurriedly assured and looked at Xiao Wang again.

"It seems to be corrupted, and the data is wrong. This...... I haven't encountered this kind of ...... before" Xiao Wang was embarrassed, "Wait for me for a minute, I-" Before he finished speaking, it was just a distorted video of the flickering snowflake screen, which turned into a black screen. Xiao Wang hurriedly called up the background data and looked at the row of records dumbfounded, "This ...... was deleted. How can it be? ”

"Do you have an internet connection?"

"Nope. The monitoring is only connected to the internal network, not the external network. What's going on? Xiao Wang frowned, "This may have to find their technical maintenance." I'll call right now. ”

"Hurry up and find someone." The captain of the security guard urged.

Xiao Wang took out his mobile phone, and Lin Youde also took out his mobile phone.

This situation cannot but be reported to the team.

While he was on the phone, he said to the security captain, "Let's take a look at the other surveillance." The main entrance and side entrance of the hospital. I'm looking for someone. ”

The security captain didn't need Lin Youde to say anything more, and called up the monitoring of the hospital's main road and several gates during that time. Not surprisingly, during that time, the monitoring went wrong, either damaged or disappeared.

Lin Youde and Xiao Wang's mobile phones were connected.

Lin Youde no longer stayed in the monitoring room, left the monitoring room, found a no-man's corner, and reported the situation to the team.

That criminal gang seems to be not only murderous and inhumane, but also very skilled.

Lin Youde estimates that it is unlikely that the hospital and the monitoring equipment manufacturer will restore the surveillance video, and maybe the bureau will have to find experts to help.

At the end of the call, Lin Youde returned to the monitoring room and saw the security captain apologizing and reassuring vigorously, but he only waved his hand.

"The bureau will send someone later, I'll go back to the ward now and watch." Lin Youde remembered the main job he left in the hospital, and his heart tightened.

He hurried back to the inpatient building, and when he entered the intensive care unit, his heart was still in his throat.

The good news is that Fang Xiaotian is lying on the hospital bed well, the equipment next to the bed is operating normally, and the vital signs displayed on it are very stable.

Lin Youde breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the clothes on his body were soaked with sweat.

He suddenly felt that the air conditioning in the intensive care ward was turned on too high, and the heat was so hot that people were weak. Thinking about it again, it was already winter, and he wore a down jacket before entering the intensive care ward, and hung the coat in the doctors' offices after entering the ward......

He recalled the strange cold, and the strange appearance and strange disappearance of Li Yun, the original heat was swept away.

It's true...... Is it really a criminal gang that does it?

How can the man explain it?

Lin Youde's face became ugly, and there was imperceptible panic in his eyes.

"Officer Lin, are you back?" The little nurse ran out of the office and greeted Lin Youde cautiously, "Don't worry, Fang Xiaotian is fine, it wasn't her who rescued her before." ”

"Hmm. Hmm......" Lin Youde felt even more uncomfortable when he saw this familiar little nurse.

The little nurse beckoned Lin Youde into the office.

Lin Youde thought that there would definitely be a lot of people in the team later, and he would have to explain to the doctors and nurses in the intensive care department, so he followed behind the little nurse.

When he entered the office, he was stopped by the elderly head nurse before he could speak.

"Officer Lin, what Meimei said is true? Did you see something dirty before? The head nurse was very invisible, and her tone of voice was very serious.

Lin Youde was caught off guard and didn't know how to answer.

The rest of the office was already gossiping.

"Impossible. This has never happened in our hospital. ”

"It's not for nothing. Outside the heart, when Director Li was there, there was an accident every other night, and someone was called to rescue him. ”

"That's Director Li's level, and the patients who have accidents are all patients he operated."

"It's something you don't understand. Director Li is not at a good level, but too bold. If others dare not perform surgery, he will dare to do it. ”

"You're on the wrong track. It's not dirty. ”

"We don't seem to have anything like this in our hospital. No one in the morgue had ever seen anything dirty. ”

"I've heard that the Third Courtyard has the most such things."

"When I graduated, my mentor told me not to go to the Third Hospital."

It was the first time Lin Youde had heard the gossip about the hospital.

As soon as the audience said this, although his experience was strange, it was not a terrible thing.

"You ...... Earnest? Lin Youde interrupted the excitement in the office in a strange mood.

"Seriously. You see, I also went to the temple to ask for a consecrated jade pendant. The little nurse pulled a red rope from the collar of her gown.

Lin Youde has been in the intensive care unit for a long time, and it is the first time that he knows that the little nurse still wears such a thing, and he usually hides it tightly.

"You wasted this stuff in our hospital." A young doctor next to him commented, "I said earlier that our hospital is very peaceful. The three hospitals are more dangerous. ”

"Actually, it's not dangerous, is it? Isn't it just a legend that I saw some strange people? ”

"Who knows when those 'people' will go crazy? Didn't you just have an accident some time ago? Right, Officer Lin? Are you in charge of that case? The young doctor turned to Lin Youde.

Lin Youde knew about the dismemberment case that occurred in the three courtyards he said.

"What I see is not dirty. You are too superstitious. Lin Youde instinctively retorted, "I just went to the monitoring room to see it, and the monitoring has been deleted." Someone from the bureau will come soon. Is the director here? I was thinking about talking to him. ”

"Huh?"

"Ahh

"Yikes!"

An indeterminate scream rang out in the office.

These doctors and nurses are more afraid of murderous criminals coming to the hospital than ethereal ghosts. At least among the stories they had heard, there had been no casualties among medical staff in the three hospitals, which had caused the most trouble. If it weren't for the boiling corpse splitting case some time ago, the death data of the three courts in this regard should be a particularly good-looking 0.

Then again, ninety percent of the corpse splitting cases in the three courts were committed by living people, and they were not considered ghosts.

"Sure enough, the living are more terrible than ghosts." The little nurse uttered the classic quote.

A group of people chimed in.

The young doctor took Lin Youde to the director's office.

In this case, the director was much calmer than the group of young people in the big office, so he first contacted the hospital leaders, and then went to the big office to give advice to the doctors and nurses under him.

“…… With Officer Lin here, and other police comrades coming over later, your safety will definitely be guaranteed. But also to guard against accidents. The murderers will not reason with you. If you see a suspicious person, you should notify Officer Lin as soon as possible. Later, it will be the time for family members to visit the patient...... "The director muttered, "In this way, you should pay attention to the order of releasing people, and release people one by one." There is also a need to see if there are any fresh faces. Those are the people who come every day, and you should all know each other. When you see a fresh face, don't just put it in. In accordance with the visitation requirements of our department, it is strictly enforced. ”

Lin Youde nodded beside him.

After this conversation, the support of the police force has arrived.

Lin Youde also had a heart, and the colleagues who would support him in the future looked at the past one by one to confirm that there were no new faces inside.

On second thought, he felt that he was thinking too much.

As soon as the thought came to mind, Lin Youde saw an unexpected face in the team.

"Professor Qin, why are you here too?" Lin Youde shouted.

"Didn't you see the man's face? I'm going to make a portrait. "The so-called Professor Qin is a criminal profiler hired by the police station, who is also responsible for the work of simulated portraits, and his main job is a university professor, and he does not sit in the police station on weekdays.

Lin Youde looked at the captain of his team.

"Captain Huang has taken someone to the monitoring room first, and he will come over later. You start by making a mock portrait. Is there an office available? The team leader asked.

The head of the intensive care unit gave up his office, but was refused.

"You don't need so many of us to stay in the intensive care unit, don't get in the way of your work. Just leave two more people on duty, just in case. The team leader checked the environment of the intensive care department, and after assigning personnel, he left with Lin Youde.

Lin Youde looked at Professor Qin and stopped talking.

The hospital found them an empty office.

Lin Youde described his experience and recalled Li Yun's appearance, but he was always a little hesitant when he spoke.

Several experienced veteran cops could hear that something was wrong.

Professor Qin patiently painted and did not ask many questions, and Lin Youde did not need Professor Qin to ask more questions, so he accurately described Li Yun's appearance. After Professor Qin drew the person, he turned his wrist and gave the drawing to Lin Youde for confirmation.

Other police officers also gathered around.

"That's the man. Painted exactly the same. Lin Youde nodded, and the uneasiness in his heart expanded a little.

"Xiaolin, what's the matter with you? What else happened besides seeing this man? The team leader asked.

Lin Youde made a bitter face, "I'm not sure either...... I saw him, but the surveillance was gone, and ...... And a nurse in the intensive care unit happened to come out of the office at that time. She should be able to see people from that position, but she ...... She didn't see anything......"

Lin Youde slurred, but still said the matter vaguely.

The squad leader raised his eyebrows, "I didn't see it before, you still engage in feudal superstition." Been in the hospital for a long time and your brain is not right? As he spoke, he pressed Lin Youde's heart on his head.

Lin Youde didn't resist, just smiled bitterly.

Professor Qin pondered, "The people you have been in contact with recently are all from the hospital, right?" Didn't have contact with that victim's relatives? ”

"Nope." Lin Youde looked at Professor Qin suspiciously.

"Before, the bureau did a case analysis," Professor Qin looked at the team leader, "The situation in this case is somewhat typical. The three known suspects knew each other and the victims, and they usually had no grudges, and suddenly killed many people by brutal means......"

The squad leader nodded, his expression sank, "Professor Qin, you mean this may not be an isolated case?" What kind of instigation and brainwashing have people in the hospital received? ”

"We haven't had this kind of thing in Yaocheng before, and there has been no sign of this recently, but it's impossible to say...... Didn't the two victims go to the temple once before they were attacked and spoke to the monks in the temple? Professor Qin said.

This is the case with his criminal profile of the case.

But as he said just now, this kind of thing had never happened in Yaocheng, and there was no warning. Although the three murderers had studied abroad, there was no evidence to prove that they had been in contact with criminals. At the trio's home, the police did not find any relevant clues.

Professor Qin's assertion is not entirely agreed with within the Force.

The testimony of the surviving victims is now the most critical clue. Fang Xiaotian may be the key to the police station solving the case in a short period of time. Otherwise, when Xie Xuanrong and the other three suspects are caught like a needle in a haystack, they don't know that they will be the year of the monkey, let alone after they are caught, those three people may not truthfully confess the truth of the incident.

Lin Youde had also heard of Professor Qin's remarks at the case analysis meeting. At that time, he didn't quite agree with Professor Qin's statement, but now that he has experienced it himself, his original thoughts have been shaken.

"Captain, there's a patient in the intensive care department. The hospital informed the family, and there may be a lot of people coming later. "One of the police officers in the intensive care unit called.

After hearing this, the team leader hurriedly beckoned people to go to the intensive care department.

Before he went out, he looked at the portrait drawn by Professor Qin again.

"Have you seen this man?" Professor Qin slowly and methodically packed his things.

He's here to make a portrait. It's not his job to be on the ward.

The team leader thought for a moment and hesitated: "It seems that I have seen it." I don't remember exactly, though. ”

Lin Youde was stunned, and he felt a sense of relief in his heart.

"I think I've seen it in the bureau." The team leader added, thought all the way, and took people to the intensive care unit.

Lin Youde followed at the end of the line.

He thinks differently than the squad leader.

If it's not a ghost, it's a human.

As Professor Qin said, there may be ghosts in the hospital.

Lin Youde thought about the appearance of the little nurse on weekdays, and felt unbelievable. But then he remembered the appearance of the little nurse pulling the red rope out of her collar. Knowing people, knowing faces, but not hearts. He hadn't developed that old-fashioned eye. He was also a young colleague who was on duty at the hospital in shifts. Perhaps, both of them looked away and didn't find any clues.

If so, Lu Yu's death is also questionable.

The more Lin Youde thought about it, the more he carefully recalled the appearance of the jade pendant, wanting to correspond to some of the gods introduced in the police training.

When he arrived at the intensive care unit and was assigned a task, he was still a little absent-minded. Of course, he had already recalled the end of the journey, and was sure that the jade pendant was engraved with an ordinary Guanyin statue.

In the ward, the doctor is still doing futile rescue work.

Lin Youde also had an understanding of the intensive care department during this time.

The doctors and nurses are experienced, and they already know whether they can save people back. Miracles happen, but miracles are miracles because they are so rare. Most of the time, things end as doctors and nurses predict without any waves.

But for family members, they always look forward to miracles, and they don't always believe that their family members are part of the crowd, which is not one of the miracles at all. When you receive a call from the hospital, you hear the news of death or a critical illness notice, which are two moods; When you rush to the hospital, you will see a cold corpse or a picture of medical staff trying to rescue you, which will also bring a different impact. They need a buffer period to accept the loss of a loved one. Even if a loved one has been lying in the ICU for a long time, even though they may have signed a critical illness notice, instinct will still refuse to believe the fact that a loved one may die.

Lin Youde watched the rescue for a while, and then heard the team leader sighing beside him.

Before the sigh fell, the doorbell rang at the door. The nurse answered the walkie-talkie and heard a trembling voice call her name.

The door opened, and the people who poured in had different looks.

The old lady who was placed in the middle looked panicked, but her expression was stubborn. She couldn't walk steadily, but she still grabbed the arms of the people around her and struggled forward.

Lin Youde recognized the old lady. She is the patient's wife, and she comes every day to visit the patient, and I heard that she is 90 years old and in good health. Her wife, who was also healthy in the past, accidentally fell and fell into the ICU, and never woke up. The two people next to the old lady, Lin Youde also felt familiar. However, a large number of family members behind these three people made Lin Youde unfamiliar.

His heart sank.

The squad leader who was standing beside him, and his colleagues scattered not far away, also became serious.

If you don't get it right, there will be people in the criminal gang mixed with the panicked family members.

Lin Youde's gaze swept over everyone who came in.

His gaze lingered for a moment on a little girl at the end of the line.

On weekdays, or at the time of school, did the family even bring their children?
