Hospital 444
Chapter 56 - 28 Coming

Chapter 56: Chapter 28 Coming

Dai Lin checked the time again.

By now, the number of ghosts had decreased to seven.

And these seven ghosts were the ones whose tombstones were splashed with the blood of a Karma Force Ghost and cursed by the Karma Force.

All the other ghosts had already left.

"Karma Force Ghosts can easily manipulate ordinary ghosts," Tang Li continued to explain to Dai Lin, "This is also a good opportunity for you to broaden your horizons. Hopefully, we won’t need to use that box, although I don’t know what’s inside either."

"Dr. Tang, you don’t know what’s inside the box either?" Dai Lin’s left eye showed no special reaction to the box.

Tang Li shook her head and said, "I don’t know... It might be the latest cursed object taken from the Cursed Objects Department by Director Mei. I guess it could be a cursed object that, once released, can’t differentiate between friends and foes."

What puzzled Tang Li the most was: Why had Deputy Dean Yin assigned Dai Lin, an intern, to accompany them on this action? Was this not akin to sending him to his doom?

Another three minutes passed...

One of those seven ghosts, the boy, suddenly showed a look of extreme pain!

Despite the depth of the night and the distance, Dai Lin’s eyes still clearly saw the boy’s expression!

The translucent ghost of the boy knelt on the ground, and then, his body began to emit a large amount of black smoke!

This black smoke... was the Curse of Karma formed by Karma Force!

"It’s started," Mei Quzhen finished this sentence, then said to Lin Sen beside her, "Mr. Lin, no matter what happens next, don’t be afraid and don’t leave my side. We Paranormal Doctors are made to mimic ghosts, after all."

Then, she lowered her head, completely covering her face with her hair, leaving almost no gaps, and she turned her body around!

Lin Sen watched tremblingly as the ghostly boy shrouded in black smoke screamed miserably, and then, to his astonishment, he saw the boy begin to disintegrate into nothingness, disappearing!

Of course, the boy would not completely vanish. Under the influence of the Curse of Karma, he would reappear.

Tang Li looked at her hand, which was not rotting, and the ghost number in her palm had changed to 6!

Another minute passed...

Only three minutes remained until nine o’clock.

And Dai Lin found that the devil inside his right eye was struggling frantically.

Then, another male ghost on the other side screamed just like the boy at that moment.

At the same time, Lin Sen suddenly realized that the box he was holding was vibrating!

Tang Li sighed as she looked at her unchanged hand, "Sigh, it has developed into the situation I hoped least to encounter. If only this were inside the hospital. Anyway, since it has come to this..."

As soon as she finished speaking, her hand displaying the number of ghosts suddenly began to show red veins, which then converged on the number 6 at the center of her palm in purple veins.

Then, Dai Lin noticed that the ghost who was screaming in pain was gradually turning blood-red as his translucent body changed bit by bit.

At that moment, Tang Li’s hand began to show signs of rot.

"Wait..." Dai Lin’s left eye immediately transmitted a sharp pain, and he suddenly realized something, "Are you forcefully turning this ghost into a Resentful Spirit?"

Tang Li nodded, "Yes. It’s necessary. Don’t worry, under the control of the Curse of Karma, they can’t stir up any trouble."

Subsequently, the bodies of the other few ghosts also began to turn blood-red bit by bit.

Through so-called curses and grievances, ghosts can become Resentful Spirits!

At this time, Tang Li felt a painful drill in the palm of her hand, which she endured by gritting her teeth.

Her gradually rotting hand couldn’t even begin to clench.

The blood-redness on the six ghosts faded away in the end.

Tang Li said through gritted teeth, "It’s done, I have forcefully turned three ghosts into Resentful Spirits."

The Curse of Karma on the ghosts flickered on and off, and at this moment, no new ghosts disappeared.

One and a half minutes left until nine o’clock!

seconds!

seconds of time!

And now, there were three Resentful Spirits around!

Once these three Resentful Spirits broke free from the control of the Curse of Karma, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But now, the three Resentful Spirits had become an important defensive force within this Field of Karma.

If they could just endure these 90 seconds and break the prophecy, they might be able to unravel this curse!

That was Mei Quzhen’s goal.

Meanwhile, Mei Quzhen was still covering her face with her hair, looking just like the ghost from a rural village horror story.

Standing beside her, Lin Sen couldn’t help but feel jittery.

If they could just get through these 90 seconds, everything could change!

At that moment, Jiang Lan and Mo Zhenzhen, who was holding her child, had already stepped out of the pediatric emergency room of the hospital.

"It’s going to be okay, Mrs. Lin..."

Jiang Lan looked at her phone, the time was almost up!

Had it all ended?

Could it all end?

...

Meanwhile, the graveyard had temporarily fallen into an eerie silence.

So far, nothing had happened.

But Lin Sen was on edge, his heart in his throat.

According to the prophecy, he would die at nine o’clock.

As long as it wasn’t past nine, he would never be safe!

And the doll that had been used as his substitute showed no signs of being attacked by the curse!

Tang Li’s hands were still smeared with blood.

And Dai Lin’s eyes had no new sensations either.

But Dai Lin felt an intense uneasiness.

Everything wouldn’t end so simply.

Right now, it was probably the calm before the storm.

Just then, Dai Lin suddenly saw a nearby tombstone begin to crack and then...shatter completely!

With the tombstone’s destruction, one of the ghosts vanished once more!

Then, one after another, more tombstones kept breaking and disappearing!

Tang Li was completely unable to sense the source of the curse.

But Dai Lin, at the moment the Field of Karma collapsed, had an epiphany!

"Seven o’clock direction! Director Mei!"

Tang Li was quite surprised; how could it be that she felt nothing, yet Dai Lin was able to determine the source so accurately?

At the same time, Mei Quzhen swept the hair from the back of her head, revealing a hideously horrifying face that looked no different from that of a real female ghost!

Her nape had turned into an actual face, while the part that was her face had become the nape!

Lin Sen was so scared his first instinct was to run, but remembering Mei Quzhen’s words from earlier, he did not flee!

As the final minute remained, a total of six tombstones had completely shattered, and the three ghosts, the three Resentful Spirits, had all vanished!

But precisely because of that, with the collapse of the Field of Karma, the position of the curse’s source had been exposed!

At that moment, Dai Lin unleashed an attack with his left eye, and the blood-red in his line of sight covered that spot!

And Mei Quzhen, who had revealed the face of the female ghost, showed a sinister smile!

Tang Li knew that this was the Malevolent Ghost sealed within Mei Quzhen by the cursed object!
