Hospital 444
Chapter 199 - 26 Blood Curse and Evil Spirits

Chapter 199: Chapter 26 Blood Curse and Evil Spirits

Inside Hospital 444, the Demons Department is an extremely mysterious division.

The three deputy directors did not have the power to interfere with the Demons Department.

If it weren’t for the transcendent status of the Demons Department, when Fang Zhou’s wife was diagnosed by Director Li An, the other departments wouldn’t have dared to give another diagnosis. Even Fang Zhou’s attempts to operate on his own wife were unable to obtain approval.

Thus, the doctors were all considering whether there was any way to obtain the treatment methods within the Demons Department, or to find a way to master objects cursed with a demonic connection.

Han Ming was one of the few who put this into practice. To date, ordinary doctors did not know what he had experienced after going to America, since it had been decades ago. However, it was certain that this significantly contributed to his becoming the Executive Deputy Director.

Lost Magic... Demon... Clearly, everything had started to exceed their expectations.

Whether demons were more terrifying than common evil spirits was controversial, as no one knew the rationale behind a demon’s curse, let alone its treatment. But the undeniable fact was that all treatment methods for a demon’s curse from other departments had been proven ineffective. The only ones who could discern the rationale of a demon’s curse and create cursed objects were the doctors of the Cursed Objects Department.

"Mr. Lehman," Dai Lin looked at Lehman and asked another question, "was your performance on Christmas, the same as today?"

Lehman nodded, "Of course. There won’t be any difference."

"There was... that cabinet magic trick, right?"

"Yes."

Dai Lin wanted to change the psychic dream, and there were many ways to do so, but he knew very well that if even Li Bolin was powerless, his own forceful attempt to change it would lead to a dead end.

Luo Ren and his mother had to go watch the Christmas magic show.

Otherwise, they would probably also die from the curse.

Everything had to follow the path laid out by the psychic dream.

Lost Magic...

That means, when Edward Harland was traveling in Europe, he encountered a man named Dave... or some kind of non-human entity. Then, he found Alice Chen and made her his female assistant.

Bringing Alice Chen to China for a tour, and then... during that magic show, Alice Chen disappeared forever inside the cabinet.

And in the psychic dream...

She was to return to this world next year and bizarrely transform into Luo Ren’s mother, just like the goat Dai Lin saw in the Black Swamp Village!

So...

Could it be...

During the Christmas show, might the cabinet magic trick bring back the vanished Alice Chen to this world?

But what returns...

might not be human anymore, but a true Demon.

But why would they want Luo Ren’s mother to watch this magic show? Could she possibly be the necessary medium for Alice Chen’s return to this world? Considering Luo Ren’s special constitution that allows him to see the hidden rules behind the Hospital 444 business card, could this constitution have been inherited from his mother?

And everything pointed to a mysterious existence.

The supposed non-existent "666 Hospital."

Clearly, "666 Hospital" played a very important role in all this.

After some thought, Dai Lin asked another question, "Do you remember, from childhood to adulthood, whether anyone self-claiming to be a doctor appeared around your father, but you never heard of the hospital where he worked, nor have you ever been to that hospital... Has there been such a person?"

Dai Lin looked at Lehman with great anticipation.

It didn’t take long before he nodded.

"Yes. When I was a child, a young doctor often visited our home, seeming to be a friend of my father. He was Asian, apparently Chinese. He was an infection specialist doctor who came to Europe to further his training."

Infection specialist?

Dai Lin’s eyes widened as he asked, "What... what was his name?"

"I don’t remember clearly. After my father passed away, I never saw him again, but he seemed to have the last name... Luo?"

The young infection specialist doctor...

Dai Lin recalled that Luo Ren had told him that his father had indeed gone to European hospitals for further training when he was young!

Could it be...

Luo Ren’s special physique actually originated from his father?

But regrettably, Doctor Luo Zheng had died. This directly resulted in Dai Lin having no way to inquire about what had happened back then!

Everything became even more confusing.

Dai Lin began to think...

Doctor Luo Zheng was unlikely to be a Paranormal Doctor, whether in Hospital 444 or 666 Hospital. He had visited the hospital where Luo Zheng worked, and the infectious disease hospital he belonged to was famously distinguished. It was impossible for him to hold both positions simultaneously; being either kind of doctor would have kept him too busy to split his time. Moreover, it might not have been Doctor Luo Zheng at all.

Seeing that Dai Lin’s reaction was unusual, Fang Zhou asked, "Could he be related to Luo Ren?"

Dai Lin nodded.

At the moment, the clues were very chaotic, yet there was no way to connect them.

What should he do?

"Can I have one of your hairs, Mr. Harland? Hmm, we can determine if you’re cursed through your hair."

Reyman would naturally trust Dai Lin completely and would not doubt the authenticity of these words.

"Sure, no problem."

With hair, they had at least some clues!

At that moment, Dai Lin’s phone began to ring.

It was Lu Yuqing calling when Dai Lin looked.

Seeing Lu Yuqing’s name, Dai Lin instinctively felt uneasy.

He immediately answered the phone and asked, "Hello, what happened?"

"Dr. Dai, we’ve run into a little trouble..."

Lu Yuqing then gave Dai Lin a detailed account of what had happened.

"Don’t go to Hospital 444! Absolutely do not go!"

Dai Lin emphasized this point again; going there would be like a lamb entering a tiger’s den, like walking into a trap.

"Then Dr. Dai, what should I do..."

Without delay, Fang Zhou grabbed the phone and said, "Tell me the current situation? Hmm... okay, I got it."

Handing the phone back to Dai Lin, Fang Zhou declared, "I’m heading back to W City to resolve the issue."

Back to W City?

Was there even time to go back now?

Dai Lin watched Fang Zhou with confusion, not understanding what he could possibly do.

"Huh?" Reyman asked with bewilderment, "You’re going back now?"

"Yes, now. Where is the restroom?"

Fang Zhou and Dai Lin entered the bathroom one after the other, with Fang Zhou stepping into a stall and telling Dai Lin, "Don’t worry, I can handle it."

He closed the stall door behind him.

By now, he had lifted the Blood Curse he had placed on Reyman.

His fingernails had become unusually sharp at this moment, like blades.

Then, with those sharp nails, he viciously slashed across his throat!

Blood immediately sprayed out like a fountain, turning the entire stall red!

Yet, he didn’t feel any pain at all.

Death due to excessive blood loss would not happen to Fang Zhou.

Minutes later, Dai Lin opened the stall door.

Inside, there was not even a drop of blood.

Not one drop.

Meanwhile, back at the Ninth Hospital in W City.

On the floor at a corner of a corridor, there lay a very inconspicuous bloodstain.

Such a small bloodstain in a hospital corridor didn’t alarm anyone.

And this bloodstain... the hospital’s cleaning staff had previously found it and tried repeatedly to clean it, but it wouldn’t come off.

At this time...

The bloodstain suddenly began to expand, and soon, it turned into a large pool of blood.

From that pool, a shriveled body crawled out, looking like a mummy!

The mummy’s throat had a noticeable cut.

This terrifying mummy ghost went unseen by the doctors and patients passing by.

The mummy ghost stood up, and then, the blood on the ground began to gather and shoot upwards into the air, defying gravity, before all of it converged into the wound of the mummy.

As the blood entered the mummy ghost, its skin started to redden and plump up from being shriveled and regain elasticity... The once terrifying visage slowly began to look more and more like a living person, and the wound on its neck fully healed.

In less than a minute...

The mummy ghost completely transformed into Fang Zhou!

"Amazing... Deputy Director Fang. You really looked just like a true ghoul just now!"

Turning his head, Fang Zhou saw a young woman clapping and walking towards him from ten meters away!
