Chapter 515: Chapter 17 Dai Lin... Is Really Still Alive!?

At that moment, Gao Heyan’s phone rang.

The person calling her was—

Xia Li.

"Dr. Xia."

She had just picked up the phone when the other party said, "I’ll only say this once, walk to the window about fifteen meters away, and then stop."

Then, the phone call ended.

Gao Heyan was stunned and walked towards a shop window nearby, puzzled.

The window glass was so clean, it almost could be used as a mirror.

At that time, Gao Heyan saw in the mirrored image of the window, a passerby suddenly stop.

However, in reality, the passerby walked straight past Gao Heyan.

As the passerby approached, he spoke to Gao Heyan through the mirror, "Dr. Gao, for the sake of safety, it’s better for us to meet like this in the future."

What Gao Heyan remembered about Xia Li was that he was extremely meticulous and careful in his work. Now it seems his character was still consistently so.

"You’re right, Dr. Xia. Speaking of which, you’ve been promoted to attending physician, haven’t you?"

Xia Li had been the fastest in the Wraith Surgery Department to be promoted to attending physician (at this moment, Gao Heyan did not know that Dai Lin had actually been the fastest).

"That’s not important," Xia Li said afterward, "I want to talk to you about two things. First, about your sister, and second, about Dr. Dai."

"All right."

For Gao Heyan at this time, naturally, her greatest concern was her sister’s safety.

"Your sister, she still hasn’t awakened."

Originally, Gao Heyan had brought her sister, Gao Menghua, into the apartment.

But then, something miraculous happened.

She didn’t wake up, yet she released her first blood character task.

Her first blood character task was to evade the pursuit of a Demon in her dreams.

Blood characters in nightmares had happened before, but this also meant no one could help her sister.

The blood character task had no time limit; as long as the resident could wake up, then that was fine. However, no matter what method others tried, they could not make her sister wake up successfully.

If she didn’t wake up, then the consequences needn’t be said.

"However, although she hasn’t awakened yet, her condition seems to have improved a lot recently, and she has begun to have some color on her face. I measure her blood pressure regularly, and it’s become more stable. In the recent measurements, the systolic pressure has been below 130, and the diastolic pressure fluctuates around 75, with her heart rate generally not exceeding 100. Moreover, I’ve tested her pupil reaction and muscles..."

Listening to Xia Li speak was always like attending an academic report, but this suited the doctor nature of Gao Heyan.

"So, is it very likely that my sister will wake up soon? Has she moved her fingers occasionally like they show in TV dramas?"

"Finger movement is what they do in TV dramas to show the audience in the most direct way that the person is about to wake up, Dr. Gao."

"I know..."

"Now let me talk to you about Dr. Dai."

Ah? Is the topic changing that abruptly? At least answer my previous question first!

"Just yesterday, I was on duty in the morgue. There, I did not witness Dr. Dai’s spirit as the rumors suggested. However, I did find some clues through the mirrors inside the morgue."

Upon hearing this, Gao Heyan immediately became tense.

Was Dai Lin truly still alive?

"Wait a second, Dr. Xia. Are you just going to state the conclusion directly?"

She knew Xia Li, and that next he would surely elaborate in detail, like defending a thesis, on how he deduced the final conclusion through the clues. But right now, she just wanted to know what the final conclusion was.

Is Dai Lin, is he really still alive?

This was her utmost concern.

Especially after Lu Yuqing said that sentence to her.

She found that if she were to sit quietly waiting for Xia Li to speak, she would be very anxious.

"As for the conclusion, I lean towards Dr. Dai still being alive."

"But... if he’s alive, why hasn’t he left the morgue?"

"There are many possibilities for this. At least one thing is certain, according to the hospital director’s regulations, if due to force majeure one cannot come to work at the hospital, it’s not considered absenteeism. And this force majeure usually involves various supernatural phenomena, therefore even if one cannot work, during this time, a salary would still be issued to Dr. Dai, but only he himself can collect it."

"Is it possible that someone from the Demons Department..." Gao Heyann didn’t realize that her muttering to a shop window had already caught the attention of passersby.

"Personally, I suggest you find a mirror. I will call you again in thirty minutes, Dr. Gao."

Then, the reflections of the passersby in the mirror disappeared.

Gao Heyann’s hand rested against the glass.

She understood Xia Li’s character. If he could say something like this, the likelihood that Dai Lin was still alive was very high.

"He... is really still alive?"

She subconsciously felt a touch of moisture in her eyes.

At first, to her, Dai Lin was just her sister’s savior.

But now, to Gao Heyann, he was also a confidante with a shared vision, someone whose soul was connected with hers.

"He’s still alive... can I get a more definite, a more definite answer?"

If he truly was still alive. If he truly was imprisoned by the doctors of the Demons Department...

Then she would stop at nothing to rescue Dai Lin!

"Demon..."

At that moment, she suddenly looked behind her at the bus company.

It seemed that back then, Lu Yuqing mentioned to me that when she had a similar feeling..."

This curse, could it fall under the purview of the Demonic Department’s treatment?

If so, then it’s the doctors’ job to transfer patients to the Demons Department. At times like these, interns from the Demons Department would come to receive the patients. However, sometimes, it’s the official doctors from the Demons Department who come to take over.

Then, she might have a chance to interact with Demonic Department Doctors!

"Maybe there really is a chance to make contact with Dai Lin himself..."

She couldn’t be one hundred percent sure, but at this stage, it was the only opportunity she had to make contact with Demonic Department Doctors.

"Thirty minutes, take this chance to make contact with the relatives of the deceased."

Nearby the bus company, it was still the gathering place for the families.

The court session hadn’t begun yet, and negotiations between the families and the bus company for compensation were still ongoing.

Quite a few journalists were also nearby, waiting for an opportunity to interview the families and get firsthand information.

Just then, a middle-aged woman, pulling a reporter along, said, "Comrade journalist, you must report well on how tragically my Xiunian died; even her body is missing from the funeral home!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Heyann immediately widened her eyes!
