Hospital 444
Chapter 553 - 15 People Are Scarier Than Ghosts

Chapter 553: Chapter 15 People Are Scarier Than Ghosts

This person needed surgery...

Through surgery, to cure this curse known as the black omen?

Even now, Hai Yunlan still found it incredible. To her, this hospital seemed much, much more terrifying than Heisong Town itself.

How exactly did she get hold of this business card? Or was it as the patient just now said, that the business cards of Hospital 444 would automatically appear on the patient’s body?

If that was really the case, this hospital was truly too terrifying.

She had noticed since a while ago. The scenery outside the windows of the outpatient clinic was shrouded in darkness. But it should be daytime now.

Why had the daylight faded?

At that moment, a nurse walked up to her and asked, "Hello, Miss Hai. If there’s nothing else, you may leave now. Hospital 444 isn’t a playground for you to visit, and staying here is somewhat dangerous."

"Dangerous?"

"You think we are exorcists or something of that sort?"

Frankly speaking, Hai Yunlan did think so. The ambulance that traveled through space, unafraid of ghosts, had led her to many speculations about Hospital 444. She even suspected that the doctors at Hospital 444 were not ordinary people.

"I understand how you feel now, but let me make it clear to you, we are not the all-powerful beings you imagine us to be. To be precise, we also risk our lives when facing ghosts and curses."

The nurse would say this to many patients.

After all, the foundation of all the medical disturbances was the patient’s overestimation of the doctors’ abilities. When they could cure you, every doctor was like a second parent in the eyes of the patients, but when they couldn’t, it meant you hadn’t tried your best, and in their eyes, you were no different from a demon. On this point, Hospital 444 was even more extreme than a regular hospital, because the patients’ payments were not money, but something far more precious.

Of course, the doctors weren’t afraid of medical disturbances, but, constrained by rules set by the dean, they couldn’t do much about the patients. Hence, it was best to put all the ugly talk upfront with each patient.

"Anyway, you should leave now."

"Then, all right."

Now, she certainly didn’t dare to offend the paranormal nurse here and could only nod. The nurse in front of her already seemed quite unhappy.

"Come with me."

"Hm?"

But when her consciousness cleared, she found that she was already back in Heisong Town.

"What, what happened?"

How did she end up back here?

She was definitely in the hospital just a moment ago, right?

Her memory felt as if a part was missing.

"This hospital is too unbelievable."

Perhaps, as they said, their powers were not omnipotent when facing ghosts. But without a doubt, when dealing with ordinary people, they were not much different from superheroes.

With the existence of this hospital, Hai Yunlan now felt a sense of security in her heart, no longer feeling as she did before.

"Hai Yunlan."

Upon hearing this voice, Hai Yunlan immediately turned around to look.

Then, she saw a young man.

This voice, she found it quite familiar and quickly, she remembered.

"Are you Su Wen?"

But the moment she uttered these words, Hai Yunlan realized something was wrong.

By saying this, she had exposed the fact that she had lost her memory.

Spoke too quickly...

This couldn’t help but make Hai Yunlan extremely annoyed. But once the words were out, it was too late for regrets.

"It’s normal that you don’t remember me," fortunately, Su Wen’s answer set her at ease considerably, "We are just neighbors and have met a few times. It’s normal for you to not have any impression of me."

Hai Yunlan walked up to Su Wen and said, "Then, can we talk?"

She had too many things she wanted to know.

Su Wen nodded, responding, "Alright. We can."

Hai Yunlan vaguely felt that perhaps, Su Wen had feelings for her.

Thinking this, she became even more convinced it was the case.

If that were true, then perhaps she could learn what she had always wanted to know from Su Wen.

About the truth behind the black skull, and why even the police in this town wore masks.

"Let’s find a place to talk."

"Um... Okay, there’s an empty lot in the nearby block, we can talk there..."

"Let’s go there then."

Of course, she still maintained a trace of caution towards Su Wen. After all, she didn’t know this person at all, and he himself had said that they were just acquaintances.

Whether him giving her a piece of paper earlier, asking her to keep an appointment, was a test or not, she couldn’t be sure.

Considering the worst-case scenario, she couldn’t exclude the possibility that he was actually a member of the Wumianhui.

Just as she and Su Wen were walking on the street, suddenly, at the junction ahead, a group of about ten Wumianhui members appeared!

These people were escorting someone who was tightly bound!

...

The morning outpatient clinic had ended.

Dai Lin still thought about the patient Hai Yunlan.

After all, it was quite rare to treat patients from Southeast Asia. Hospital 444 theoretically could treat most patients from Asia, including both North Asia and Southeast Asia. However, as part of the Pacific region, they would not treat patients from Australia, New Zealand, and the like. But in reality, over 90% of the patients they treated were Chinese, followed by a very few from Japan, Korea, India, Myanmar, the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, etc. Given the population distribution, the number of patients from Russia in North Asia and from India in South Asia going to Hospital 444 was also too few.

Moreover, the patient named Hai Yunlan claimed she had lost her memory, which was also rather unusual. What caused her amnesia, whether it was a scare or something else, was still uncertain.

However, what made Dai Lin’s impression of Hai Yunlan most profound was...

"In that town, it seems humans are much more terrifying than ghosts."

No matter how horrific and vicious the demons were, the doctors at Hospital 444 had seen them all. But Hai Yunlan’s description of Heisong Town made it clearer that compared to ghosts and goblins, living humans seemed much more terrifying.

With this thought, Dai Lin’s mood became somewhat heavy. After all, he couldn’t solve problems caused by humans. A Paranormal Doctor couldn’t intervene in the conflicts among people.

"Hopefully, getting her mother’s hair tomorrow will provide some clues."

Meanwhile...

The Wumianhui procession had reached Su Wen and Hai Yunlan.

"Listen up," the leader of the Wumianhui said to them, "This man is a criminal. He has been judged by us. Now, the black omen has appeared on him."

Hearing this, Su Wen’s complexion changed, and then he said, "Yes, this is his retribution..."

"If that’s the case, what should be done to the criminal?"

Su Wen looked towards the man who was tied up, his face ashen, picked up a stone from the ground, and hurled it toward him!
