Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Knot in My Heart
Area D Security Command Center, Surveillance Room.
Chen Yuan stared intently at the surveillance screen on the wall.
This is the fifth time he has seen it.
He remembered very clearly that the time period from the resurrection of the ghost to the escape of the demon fox into Area D was between 12 and 1 o'clock in the morning.
However, no matter how he draws frames, slows down, and closes the camera, during this time, Sun Dehua in the video is always like a sculpture, looking out the window in a daze, without any abnormal movement.
"During this time, Andy Sun has been staying in the ward, and the death of the demon fox seems to have nothing to do with him......"
"Could it be that this Andy Sun ...... Just an ordinary schizophrenic?"
Chen Yuan pondered for a long time, and suddenly his brain opened up, and he thought of another absurd but explosive conjecture!
"If Andy Sun is really the Monkey King, but the fall of the demon fox really has nothing to do with him, then there must be someone else who killed the demon fox!D area...... There's a peerless boss hiding!?"
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan's heart was shocked, and he was frightened by this brain hole!
"Dr. Chen, you've also seen the surveillance, you still have an hour to stay, if there's nothing else, I suggest you leave Area D early. ”
A cold male voice came from the side, and it was the security captain who was in charge of the security and logistics of the entire D area, Du Wannian.
Different from Li Ergou's small role, Du Wannian was a big man in the underworld in Chuzhou in his early years, and only a few years ago he accepted the invitation of Huang Jueming, the dean and teacher, to come to District D as a big housekeeper.
Now that there is a big change in District D, most of the nurses and security guards, including Li Ergou, are Du Wannian's younger brother in the society, Chen Yuan once heard Brother Zhang in the same dormitory say that Du Wannian's annual salary alone is seven figures for him, and the requirements for him are also very simple, just four words - "safe and closed, management autonomy".
Chen Yuan turned around, looked at the man in his early forties with a strong appearance, and said lightly: "Captain Du, I want to talk to the cleaning aunt of the tower, is it okay?"
"Okay, I'll arrange it for you as soon as possible, but it's still the same sentence, we have the rules of District D in District D, even if you are personally sent by the dean, after the visit time, we can't guarantee your safety in District D. ”
Du Wannian's face was cold, and his tone was vaguely threatening.
"Of course, it's troublesome Captain Du. ”
Chen Yuan's face was indifferent, and he met the other party's cold gaze.
......
......
Under Du Wannian's arrangement, ten minutes later, Chen Yuan met the two cleaners of the tower.
In the empty monitoring room, the three of them sat at a table, facing each other.
"Two aunts, you also know that I was personally sent by Dean Huang, so the next conversation between us involves hospital confidentiality, and I hope you will answer truthfully and keep it confidential. ”
Chen Yuan asked with a serious face.
"Good. The two cleaners nodded.
Chen Yuan bowed slightly, and said straight to the point: "Last Saturday, who were you in charge of cleaning up the room for the patient Sun Dehua on the upper floor of the tower?"
"It's ...... me"
After a moment of silence, one of the aunts surnamed Zhu raised his hand timidly.
Chen Yuan looked at her and asked sharply, "Aunt Zhu, is it morning or afternoon when you clean the room?"
"Morning. ”
"How much?"
"About half past seven...... Dr. Chen, you also know the patient's condition, I cleaned it briefly and left, not daring to approach his living cage at all......"
Aunt Zhu looked aggrieved.
"Well, what was the patient's mood at the time?"
Chen Yuan then asked.
Last Saturday was the day after the demon fox's death, and he wanted to start at this point in time.
"His emotions ......"
Aunt Zhu recalled, her face was a little frightened: "By the way, he seemed to be sick at the time, his mouth kept babbling, talking to himself, sometimes the tone was very fierce, and sometimes it was terrifyingly quiet, as if he was possessed by another person!"
Chen Yuan let out a "hmm", of course he knew that this was a clinical manifestation of severe schizophrenia, a split personality consciousness, just like what he saw today.
"Do you have an impression of what he said?" he asked, after a moment's thought.
As if she didn't understand why Chen Yuan asked this question, Aunt Zhu smiled bitterly and said:
"It's just some nonsense, similar to other mental patients, I didn't listen to it much, I only heard him say something like "heart demons" and "seals" in a trance, and said that one day, he would kill back to heaven and slaughter all the gods and Buddhas ......."
"You also know that this patient has always been delusional that he is the Monkey King, but who is Sun Dasheng? That's a great good immortal! Ahem, if he is a normal person, then he should make amends to the people of the whole country!"
Chen Yuan's expression was solemn, he thought for a while, and then asked, "Aunt Zhu, are you in his room...... Found something weird?"
"Strange thing?" Aunt Zhu looked dazed.
"yes, like something stuffy, like animal fur? probably...... It's like the tail of a pet dog or a fox?"
Chen Yuan said guidedly.
Yes, that night the demon fox still had three big tails left and fled into Zone D, unless it was devoured alive, or it was impossible to leave not a single hair left!
"Fox fur? no......
Aunt Zhu thought about it carefully, and resolutely added: "Absolutely not, except for the patient's room surnamed Sun on Saturday, in the tower, the other patients' rooms were also cleaned by me, I'm sure!"
"Okay, I know, thank you two aunts, you guys go get busy......"
Chen Yuan took a deep breath and stood up.
At this moment, his mood was complicated, half happy and half worried.
Fortunately, combined with all the clues, it seems that Sun Dehua is most likely just a patient with extremely serious paranoia, and there are many such patients in mental hospitals, and even those who claim to be the Jade Emperor and the Buddha, if they go to investigate one by one, I am afraid that sooner or later they will have to make themselves mentally ill.
Yes, there is no need to become a frightened bird because of the cases of Zhong Shuaishuai and Liu Quanfu.
However, another concern that cannot be ignored is that the whole thing has become more confusing!
The most direct, who killed the demon fox?
If Sun Wukong did it, then where is he hiding?
There is not a single clue at all.
If it weren't for Monkey King, it would be even more terrifying!
This shows that in this psychiatric hospital, there is still a fourth super boss who has not argued with each other and has not known good and evil after Liu Quanfu, Zhong Shuaishuai, and Sun Wukong!
Chen Yuan sighed heavily, and was about to walk out of the door, when he suddenly noticed the cleaner surnamed Tan on the side, biting his lower lip, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.
"Aunt Tan, do you have anything to say?"
Chen Yuan stopped, his eyes sharpened and looked at her.
"No, nothing. Aunt Tan hurriedly shook her head.
"Nothing, really? but...... I look at your face and seem to know something. Chen Yuan pretended to be half-joking.
"It's really nothing, Dr. Chen, I was still on duty in Area A on Saturday, and two days later, I was transferred to Area D!"
Aunt Tan hurriedly explained, and pointed to Aunt Zhu: "If you don't believe it, you can ask Sister Zhu." ”
"yes, she was transferred two days later, and I was in charge of the tower until then. Aunt Zhu affirmed.
Chen Yuan glanced at the two of them, thought for a while, didn't say anything, and left the room.
After Chen Yuan left, a conversation between the two cleaning aunts sounded in the monitoring room.
"Xiao Tan, what's the matter with that expression on your face just now? You won't ...... Did you discover some secret?"
Aunt Zhu, surnamed Cleaner, looked at her colleague who was two or three years younger than herself and asked.
Aunt Tan looked around at no one, and then leaned into the other party's ear and said, "Sister Zhu, you are not an outsider, I don't want to hide it from you, what Dr. Chen said just now reminded me of a strange thing I encountered recently!"
"What's weird?" Aunt Zhu smiled disappretently. Working in a mental hospital for many years, seemingly bizarre things are not uncommon.
"On Saturday, I was in charge of cleaning the dean's office area, you know, right?" Aunt Tan said quietly.
"Ah, I know, why did you get involved with the dean again? What's wrong with his old man?" Aunt Zhu looked surprised.
"Let me tell you, I was under the locust tree downstairs in the dean's house that day, and I saw a bleeding, fluffy animal leg, and there were many scattered hairs next to it!"
"Is there such a thing? Are you dazzled?" Aunt Zhu was also a little frightened.
"The horror is yet to come! After I peeled off the dirt, guess what? The blood stains on the leg and around it slowly disappeared! As if it had been cremated, it turned into black powder, and it was blown away by the wind in an instant!"
"Hahaha......"
"Sister Zhu, what are you laughing at?"
"Xiao Tan, you've only been in the hospital for a few years, this place is stressful, especially in Zone D, it's normal to have occasional hallucinations, just get used to it!"
“......”
......
......
Before Chen Yuan left the gate of Area D, he took back his wallet and mobile phone, and at this time, he happened to receive a phone call.
It was Liu Quanfu's daughter, Liu Wanyi, who called.
He instinctively connected, and Liu Quanfu's voice came from the phone.
"Little friend, don't you have a knot, do something big tonight! Don't forget!"
"Hmm...... Almost. Chen Yuan answered, and wanted to ask about the details of the preparation for cultivation, when a little girl's voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone:
"Grandpa, don't talk to anyone else! You want to play with Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan wants to learn to draw!"
"Okay, grandpa, I'll accompany you to paint, good baby, don't be angry, don't be angry, there's really no need to ......"
“.....”
Chen Yuan took the initiative to hang up the phone with a complicated mood.
