Chapter 192: Chapter 19 The Disappearing Patient

"But is it really necessary for both of us to take action together, specially taking a flight and a high-speed rail to come to W city?" Lu Wen looked at the face on the cellphone, Luo Ren’s: "He’s definitely just an ordinary human being."

"If the people from the Han Ming Faction are truly protecting him, then it’s necessary for the two of us to make a move. With both of us here, even Fang Zhou, Li Bolin, and Chen Jun added together, they couldn’t keep him safe. The only pity is that we can’t pinpoint his time of arrival here more precisely!"

"Unless Han Ming himself personally comes out to protect him."

"He should have been dead a long time ago." When Song Min said this, there wasn’t a trace of emotion: "The position of Executive Vice President, with him in it, is always a threat to us."

At this moment, Song Min suddenly looked out of the window.

"However, there are quite a few ghosts around here."

"Probably because this is near a hospital."

"Hospital?"

"W City’s Ninth Hospital."

Upon hearing this, Song Min’s expression grew tense.

"W City... Ninth Hospital?"

The hospital where Dai Lin used to work!

Initially, when the diary predicted that Luo Ren was from W City, she hadn’t thought too much about it. But to be precisely near the hospital where Dai Lin had worked...

Is this a coincidence?

She stood up and said to Lu Wen, "Director Lu, stay here and keep watch, though the likelihood of him coming now is very low."

"The Ninth Hospital... What about it?" Lu Wen had almost no interaction with Dai Lin and only knew that Dai Lin had been a surgeon in a normal hospital, but he was unclear about which hospital he had come from.

"Maybe I’m just being overcautious, but just to be safe, I will go and take a look."

Afterwards, Song Min walked out of the convenience store and headed towards W City’s Ninth Hospital.

Upon arriving at the hospital’s entrance, Song Min took out an unopened mask and put it on. Although for a Paranormal Doctor, wearing a mask or not made no difference, she entered the hospital.

To every Paranormal Doctor, a normal hospital is a place both familiar and strange.

...

Dai Lin and Fang Zhou were in a taxi, on their way to the airport.

"Dr. Dai," Fang Zhou reminded him: "Both of us are very aware of the terribly formidable curse we are facing this time."

"I know." Dai Lin wouldn’t forget the expression on Li Bolin’s face.

"If things become impossible, you must teleport back to the hospital immediately," he continued to remind him: "As long as you get back to the hospital, even the most fearsome curse must be weakened somewhat."

"The assumption is... that we can successfully return to the hospital."

Dai Lin picked up his phone and saw that there was a performance tonight at the Linde Theater in S City by Mr. Lehman. He had quite a few bodyguards, as well as a team of agents, and never signed autographs for fans. Therefore, Dai Lin had found someone to help him.

Fang Zhou took out his business card and caressed it, flipping it over afterward.

Why did Lu Wen emphasize that he had to show Luo Ren the back of the business card?

He had already realized that Dai Lin knew something but was keeping it from him. However, he wouldn’t insist on being told, even the best of friends often had things they couldn’t share, let alone they had only just become friends.

"Dr. Fang..."

"Hmm?"

"In your eyes, what kind of person is Vice President Yin Wuque?"

Fang Zhou was surprised that Dai Lin would ask him such a question.

"Dr. Dai, why do you ask me that?" Fang Zhou was puzzled, "Shouldn’t you be more familiar with Vice President Yin? I haven’t had much contact with him."

"I’ve only been at the hospital for two months. You’ve worked here for so long..."

"All I know is that before he became vice president, he was praised as an extremely rare genius surgeon. I’ve watched his public surgeries... All I can say is, the word ’genius’ isn’t the least bit exaggerated."

Fang Zhou revealed a reminiscent expression at that remark, "It might sound strange, but he’s like the male protagonist in a TV series, virtually perfect in every aspect, so he and Dr. Gao Menghua have always been considered the perfect match in the hospital."

"Dr. Fang, what I want to ask... isn’t that. What I want to know is... what kind of person is Vice President Yin Wuque? Rest assured, whatever you tell me, I won’t inform anyone that I heard it from you."

Dai Lin couldn’t forget Yuyi Gao’s last words.

At that time, Yin Wuque was the last one to go to their rescue.

Dai Lin also felt that his thoughts were too absurd, and had they arisen in the past, he would have considered them an overreaction. But now, he wasn’t so sure anymore.

He didn’t mind the secrets that Yin Wuque harbored, but when it came to curses, Dai Lin had to be more cautious.

And Fang Zhou, who didn’t belong to any faction, might be able to answer his questions most objectively.

Fang Zhou keenly detected the potential meaning behind Dai Lin’s words.

Although Yin Wuque wasn’t his direct superior, speaking ill of him was still inappropriate.

But... Fang Zhou still harbored some concerns about something that had happened years ago. Besides, as a member of the Department of Fierce Spirits, he could not, to some extent, stand on the same side as Yin Wuque.

"In the past, there was an incident."

"What incident?" Dai Lin suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

Could it be that there was indeed a problem with Yin Wuque’s character?

"Back then, a mother brought her child to the Wraith Surgery Department for consultation. That child had provoked a resentful spirit. At that time, the mother managed to get an appointment with Director Song and had successfully registered her child for admission. However, the next day, the admitted child disappeared."

"Disappeared? In the ward? A resentful spirit took a patient from the ward? How is that possible!"

"Naturally, the mother couldn’t accept such an event and demanded that the hospital explain, asking to see the surveillance footage. But later, she was expelled from the hospital and placed on the patient blacklist. Once on the hospital’s blacklist, a patient can no longer enter the hospital by any means. This was several years ago, but I still remember it vividly."

With that, he looked at Dai Lin, emphasizing a point, "Dr. Dai, I must state that I am sharing this with you because I consider you a friend."

"I understand. I won’t tell anyone that you’ve shared this with me... Does this incident have something to do with Vice President Yin?"

"The ward refused the mother’s request to see the surveillance footage, and afterwards, the footage from that night was deleted. I only learned the details after joining the Department of Fierce Spirits. In fact, this matter is an open secret among the hospital’s senior management, so telling you about it isn’t really a big deal. Of course, Dr. Gao Heyann probably doesn’t know about this."

"Was the surveillance footage deleted by Vice President Yin’s orders?"

"The addition of the patient’s family to the blacklist was also his doing. Of course, it’s possible that the incident was related to some powerful curse, like one that could spread through surveillance footage, so that’s understandable. But if that were the case, expelling the patient’s mother would seem somewhat inhumane."

"Do you remember the names and addresses of the child and the mother?"

"That was a patient of the Wraith Surgery Department. You should find them in the medical records on Director Song’s computer."

Dai Lin began to wrestle with a dilemma: What to do? How was he going to access Director Song’s computer?
