Chapter 409: Possessed
Ning Qiushui, who got the monk's gray robe, thanked the lady in black and did not continue to stay in the church.
If he can't get back to the house before the fog fills again, he can only wait in the church for the next time the fog disappears.
That could be hours later, or it could be days later.
Ning Qiushui didn't want to waste time, he returned to the Secret House, rested for the night, and the next morning, he took a bus back to Pomegranate City alone, and then took a bus to Xiangchun Mental Hospital.
Before that, he still said hello to the "washing machine" in advance.
The psychiatric hospital was ostensibly designed to care for the mentally ill, but in fact it was much more than that.
At least, Ning Qiushui didn't believe that the people in the military didn't know anything about the "shadows" hidden in the mental hospital.
He hadn't heard of it, which meant that these were secrets that could only be covered by some special departments.
However, this also made Ning Qiushui feel a little relieved.
Although there are indeed strange forces in the world they live in, they are not unaware of it, and some people have been paying attention to them.
Once born, second ripe, when he came to this place again, Qi Runzhi, the administrator here, seemed to have seen a plague god.
"Are you going to see Zhao Er again?"
Her face is not very good-looking.
As she said, she didn't like that building, and she didn't like Zhao Er.
"Well, I'm sorry for you."
Ning Qiushui shook her hand with a polite smile on her face.
Qi Runzhi couldn't say anything, the identity of the man in front of her was a bit special, and she was given an order from above, let her go when she should be released, as long as it didn't involve special secrets, there was no need to shy away from him.
led Ning Qiushui to the building again, she gave the key to Ning Qiushui and explained:
"It's still the same, use up the key, remember to return it to me before you turn around and leave, and besides, I'm not responsible for any accidents that happen inside."
Ning Qiushui nodded.
"Don't worry."
Qi Runzhi is not at ease at all.
The last time he came in, something terrible happened in the elevator, and he called her for help.
It's not so much a call for help as a threat.
Qi Runzhi knew that her status in the military was not high, and she had no background, and it was because of this that she could be sent to guard this place.
The bottom is clean enough, and everyone can rest assured.
After saying goodbye to the administrator, Ning Qiushui walked into the elevator and sent a message to Zhao Er by the way.
It didn't take long for the elevator door to open, and Zhao Er appeared at the door of the elevator door on the sixth floor.
He took Ning Qiushui back to his room and poured Ning Qiushui a cup of cold water.
"Got it so soon?"
Ning Qiushui nodded.
"Yes, what about that guy Hong Yu?"
Zhao Er replied:
"You sit in my room for a while, and I'll go out and look for it."
Ning Qiushui pointed to the corridor.
"There's surveillance outside, are you sure you won't cause a riot if you run away?"
Zhao Er casually picked up an apple next to him and threw it.
"There are a lot of 'shadows' in the mental hospital, and there are some 'unknowns' that you can't quite understand, and I have some 'friends' in the hospital who can help, but if you find someone, it won't take much time......"
With that, he took a bite of the apple and went out.
Within a few minutes, he did return to his room with a 'shadow'.
"Well, that's her."
Ning Qiushui stared at the blurred black shadow in the corner of the room, and his tone was suspicious:
"Are you sure?"
"I'm not doubting your professionalism...... But I mean, they look exactly the same, how can you tell the difference? ”
"Could there be other shadows pretending to be Hong Yu?"
Zhao Er chewed the apple and said seriously:
"I can see what you can't see."
"It's not just ghosts."
"To give you a simple example, there are only seven colors in the perception of ordinary people, and in your senses, other colors of different shades are graded according to these seven colors, but in fact, there are many colors in this world that you can't see."
As he spoke, he nodded his chin at the 'shadow' in the corner.
"Take her, for example."
"You think she's a blurry dark shadow, but in fact, in my eyes, there is no deviation between her appearance and the blood gate."
Hearing Zhao Er's explanation, Ning Qiushui understood.
"That's interesting......"
He muttered.
Zhao Er said meaningfully:
"There's a lot more interesting things to do, and the world is more complicated than you think...... I don't mean inside the blood gate, but the world you and I are in at the moment. ”
"Alright, you can give her the identity token."
"When she gets her status, she will revert to her old self."
Ning Qiushui nodded.
He handed the grey robe of the monk that the lady in black had given him to the dark shadow in the corner.
The latter took the gray robe and slowly put it on, and then Hong Yu's body gradually became clear from blur.
The familiar face appeared in front of Ning Qiushui's eyes.
As beautiful as before.
But the skin was paler than before, so pale that there was not a trace of blood.
If it is placed at night, with a background light that shines from under the chin, it is a terrifying female ghost who is alive.
Hong Yu looked down at the monk's robe on his body, first surprised, and then found that the monk's robe on his body became transparent, and finally disappeared.
She screamed, hurriedly covered her chest and lower body, and crouched in the corner of the room in embarrassment.
Zhao Er was no longer surprised by this, he took out a set of clean clothes from his small wardrobe and threw it to Hong Yu.
"Put it on yourself."
With that, he and Ning Qiushui politely left the room for a few minutes.
"So, that's fine?"
Outside the door, Ning Qiushui lit a cigarette for himself.
This is a bad habit learned in the Blood Gate.
"It's not that simple......"
"Do you really think that there is no price to pay for the dead to regain their 'identity'?"
The smile on Zhao Er's face was a little mad.
"To put it nicely, she is no different from a normal person now, and she can be regarded as picking up a second life."
"If it's not good...... From this moment on, Hong Yu was the slave of the "old site master". ”
"The one who gave her 'identity'."
Ning Qiushui's eyes flashed.
"Freedom in exchange for life?"
Zhao Er nodded.
"That's pretty much it."
There was silence in the corridor, Ning Qiushui took two puffs of cigarette and said:
"By the way, Zhao Er, I want to know a person......
Zhao Er tilted his head.
"Who?"
"Jin Cheng is also a patient of Xiangchun Mental Hospital, do you know?"
"Hmm...... Know, what's wrong with her? ”
Ning Qiushui explained:
"She escaped from the psychiatric hospital two days ago to assassinate one of my companions."
When Zhao Er heard this, he smiled and said:
"I saw this incident on the news this morning, you can enter this place casually to see me, it should have something to do with the military of Pomegranate City, they have interrogated Jin Cheng, you may know more about them in more detail......"
Ning Qiushui shook his head.
"Nope."
"The police couldn't ask anything, and I don't believe that a mentally ill person could accurately grasp such a tense gap in the shift change to escape from the Xiangchun Psychiatric Sanatorium, and then accurately find my friend so far away and stab her."
Zhao Er was silent for a moment.
"Jin Cheng is indeed a mentally ill person."
"It's impossible for a mentally ill person to do that, the only possibility I can think of is...... She was 'possessed'. ”
Ning Qiushui was stunned when he heard this:
"Possessed?"
"Possessed by something?"
A weird sneer crossed Zhao Er's face, giving people goosebumps.
"What else do you think it is......
