"There is someone behind the door."

Yan Ge's movements were fixed for two seconds, but he didn't go in. He closed the door and took two steps back.

Li Ya was helping with the flashlight, and turned to see him retreating to the wall to recharge, and asked, "It is uncivilized to use violence in a haunted house."

"I didn't want to use it." Yan Ge rolled his eyes at him, jumped up and grabbed the top of the door frame, and flipped in through the open top window.

There was a loud noise in the department of the Second Department of Psychology and Psychiatry, and then it fell silent.

Li Ya waited politely at the door for a while, then knocked on the door: "Hello?"

The door opened, and Yan Ge held a skinless mannequin under his arm, holding a pair of tricks on the mannequin's face in his right hand, and signaled: "It's ok."

In the abdominal cavity of the dummy, a pile of syringes is hidden under each rib.

Those syringes had a strong smell of disinfectant, and there were labels like "Lidocaine" written on the walls of the syringes.

"Anesthetic?"

"Well, it smells a bit like it, you come in first."

"Excuse me." Li Ya walked in, closed the door behind him, looked at Yan Ge stuffing the dead puppet into the corner with disgust, and said curiously, "Let me confirm, you should not be afraid of ghosts." ?”

Yan Ge: "I just hate being ambushed, it's to save time."

Li Ya thought of Tang Yuan's private evaluation of Yan Ge just now - he is indeed a man with no weaknesses in his fancy, too strong.

Well, apart from the big problem with singing pitch, there is really no weakness.

There is a hidden cubicle on the left and right of the second psychological and psychiatric department. Compared with other consultation rooms, the facilities here are simpler. There is a row of low cabinets with books on the opposite side of the window, but the books on it are scattered. On the ground, as if after a struggle.

"There are scratch marks on the ground."

Yan Ge wiped the ground, rubbed it between his fingers, and found that it was some red crystals.

"...The blood is still fresh, and the scabs haven't been formed for a long time. It should be that a living person was dragged out of this consulting room not long ago."

"There are two possibilities. One is the three medical staff who were arrested, and the other is that other outsiders have been to a hunting ground this week."

Li Ya's flashlight shone, and he walked around behind the desk in the center of the room. There was a locked iron box placed abruptly on the chair.

I lifted it with one hand, but I couldn't lift it for a while.

He gave a slight snort, bit the flashlight, and used both hands to gather strength to lift it up, and then lifted the tin box.

I patted off the dust on the box, took a photo with the flashlight, and found that there was a line of small characters written on it——

【Medical record storage box】

Here is another line of related instructions:

【新爱医院夜间巡查时间为19:00、21:00、23:00、00:00】

【Patients please be sure to show your medical record card when the inspection team arrives】

[The medical record card will be issued by the attending physician after the routine inspection]

Yan Ge tried to pull the zipper, and found that there seemed to be a force pushing him out.

"According to the general gameplay of haunted houses, you should find the key at this time, right?"

Yan Ge had no objection. At this moment, he saw Li Ya suddenly turn his head and look at the compartment behind him.

The half-hidden door opened at some unknown time, and a half-figure was exposed in the crack of the door.

"...Although almost every hunting ground is a haunted house, the ones that are specifically scary are really disgusting."

It was a puppet in a white coat, which seemed to be made of plastic models and cotton wool. The face could not be seen clearly under the dirty hair, only a pair of red eyes were exposed.

It opened its black "mouth", but an electric voice sounded like an old-fashioned radio came out from its belly: "No. 5104, come in... come, lie... on... bed..."

Yan Ge looked down at his number 5104. Just as he was about to speak, he saw that the compartment on the other side opened with a creak.

There is no puppet inside, but there are four hands, sticking out from the crack of the door, slowly waving and making a zigzag sound.

"Number 9104, come... come..."

At the same time, other departments on this floor seemed to have encountered similar tests, and restrained screams came in from outside.

Yan Ge stared at it for two seconds, compared it, and felt that Li Ya was more unlucky, and said: "It seems that the medical record card will be issued after seeing the doctor. That thing should be equivalent to our passport in this hospital, so ..."

Li Ya took two steps towards the compartment over there, then turned back and asked, "Will you come to rescue me when I call?"

Yan Ge: "I will come when you call the third sound."

Li Ya stepped back and walked in, the four hands at the door also retracted into the compartment, and closed the door with a bang.

Yan Ge didn't know whether he was really afraid or fake, so he mourned in his heart for a while, and went to the side that called his number.

The puppet in a white coat stepped aside a little, allowing Yan Ge to walk in smoothly. When the door closed, the whole room was lit with red lights.

The lamps of this psychological consultation room are embedded on the four walls, and there is a hospital bed in the middle. The most notable thing is that the ceiling directly above is made of mirrors, and you can see your face when you look up.

"Lie... go..." the puppet urged faintly behind.

Yan Ge kept everything around him under his eyes, walked over with ease, lay down on the hospital bed, and looked at himself in the mirror on the ceiling.

"Doctor." The moment he lay down, Yan Ge's voice changed, his cold brows calmed down, revealing a trace of sickness, "How is the progress of my illness?"

The puppet moved to his window, the eyes under the long hair stared at Yan Ge motionlessly, and said in his stomach: "What... what did you see..."

What am I seeing?

This question stunned Yan Ge. In his expectation, it would not be a surprise that the puppet took out a scalpel and began to dissect it. He didn't expect it to be just a question.

Because it's "psychotherapy"?

Many thoughts flashed through Yan Ge's mind. Suddenly, the mirror on the ceiling cracked, and a slit was split in the middle, and his own reflection became two from the middle.

"You, what did you see..." The puppet lowered its head slightly and continued to ask.

A look of disbelief suddenly appeared on Yan Ge's face, who had remained calm since entering the hunting ground.

When he saw himself on the ceiling, he showed two completely different expressions.

One showed a woman's expression, and the other propped up the corner of his mouth with his palm, showing a big smile.

"You think you can control them..."

The puppet suddenly let out a strange laugh, and a third crack began to appear in the mirror on the ceiling.

"Welcome to the split personality... treatment room."

……

On the fourth floor, the blood collection station.

The wooden door opened with a creak, Xiao Yi shrank under Diana's arm, poked her head inside and took a flashlight to take a picture.

There was no light inside, and behind the two glass windows stood two humanoid figures, with their hands raised at their sides, which looked particularly strange.

"Woo, what a shame..."

Xiao Yi knew that the color of real blood was different from that of fake blood, but at this moment she didn't know whether it was the characteristics of the hunting ground or a psychological effect. She did smell blood at this blood collection station.

"Are you sure this is where the radio told us to come?" Xiao Yi wanted to keep a distance from Diana at first, but she gave up struggling when she got here.Holding her arm did not dare to let go.

"It's here." Diana looked very relaxed, holding Xiao Yi between her legs, walked in with long legs, and closed the door smoothly. "In another 2 minutes, the 'round visit' will start."

"Visit round?" Xiao Yi's eyes were still fixed on the puppet behind the glass window in the blood collection station, and she asked, "What is that?"

"This starts with the story background of this Xin'ai General Hospital..."

Diana briefly introduced the story of the haunted house, and then said, "In short, you have to play the role of a mental patient well, so that you can't be discovered by the 'crazy Zhang' of the patrol team."

Xiao Yi was a little short of breath: "Then if he is discovered, can we hammer him..."

Diana: "Of course, the only problem is that after Crazy Zhang dies, we will be teleported to the morgue in this haunted house until next Monday."

Xiao Yi: "...What kind of ghost mechanism is this, how do you know?"

Diana: "Because when I came here last month, I collapsed that lunatic Zhang, and then I was lucky enough to stay in the morgue below for four days."

Xiao Yi: "..."

No wonder the time is on Friday, there will be a parade on Saturday, and everyone will fall asleep uncontrollably after 0:[-] on Sunday. Friday is the most suitable time. Even if it fails, just wait for two days.

At this time, the puppet behind the glass counter of the blood collection station moved.

They came forward and stuck to the glass, staring straight at them, with electric sounds like old-fashioned radios coming out of their stomachs.

"Come, come... come..."

Xiao Yi's whole face was wrinkled together, Diana simply carried her and walked over, sat down calmly, rolled up her sleeves and stretched her beautiful arms in.

"Just take mine."

The puppet gave a weird laugh, then took out a huge syringe and leaned over it. Amid Xiao Yi's surprised voice, the needle stuck into Diana's arm.

The blood quickly filled the syringe, and the puppet showed no intention of stopping.

"How much is he going to pump?" Xiao Yi's scalp felt numb when she saw such a big needle tube, and her heart became anxious.

Diana: "About 2000CC."

Xiao Yi's eyeballs almost popped out, and she leaned over to do it, and she said in a low voice, "Normal people donate blood with 400cc. If it draws so much blood from you, you will die!"

Diana's blue eyes overflowed with a little smile: "It's nothing, I just want to get the medical record card as soon as possible, this is your share."

Xiao Yi was at a loss for words for a moment, at this moment, a sound of footsteps came from downstairs outside the door.

She looked up, and under the gray light, a figure appeared outside the frosted glass... There were so many of them that they quickly occupied the entire corridor.

One could vaguely see a figure walking in the front, probably wearing a doctor's white coat, but strangely, it had no head, and it was knocking on a door diagonally opposite the blood collection station.

Diana casually glanced at the clock, and at this moment, the progress of blood collection was over, and two medical records were handed out through the glass window.

Diana looked at it, put away her share, and handed Xiao Yi's share to her.

"After watching the disease on the medical record card, they will come to check this."

Xiao Yi looked down and saw [No.: 3366/Status: Under treatment/Symptoms: Mild psychological obsessive-compulsive disorder] written on the medical record card. 】

"What's yours?" Xiao Yi thinks this illness is quite similar. It seems that after she has been promoted to the second level, she likes to clean the room more and more. After finishing painting every day, she has to arrange all the paint tools before going back to rest .

Diana propped her chin, touched her lips that had faded due to excessive blood loss, squinted her eyes, and said, "You really want to know?"

"Aren't they all fake?" Xiao Yi couldn't figure out what to cover up.

"Fake? That's what I thought at first... This haunted house is for us to pretend to be mentally ill, but in fact, those of us who have reached the second level are really mentally ill."

Xiao Yi: "What, what?"

"From the standard of normal people, we are all superhuman beings, but this kind of superpower has a fatal weakness, that is... we will all gradually develop mental problems according to each person's different situation."

Xiao Yi swallowed: "That is to say..."

"That is to say, the diagnosis given to us by this Xin'ai General Hospital is correct."

"..."

At this time, the footsteps outside the door finally stopped at the entrance of the blood collection station.

Diana turned her head to look at the opened door, and the group of puppets in white coats standing outside the door, leaning slightly.

Just when Xiao Yi thought she was about to start doing something, she leaned over and whispered in her ear——

"By the way, my symptoms are that of a sex-addict."
