Chapter 561: Chapter 23 Silencing

He Jinghan tapped on the keyboard, speaking to the male doctor before her, "Your curse object is currently very stable, and the backlash symptoms have completely ceased. You can rest assured."

Hearing He Jinghan’s assurance, the male doctor, a doctor from the Department of Spectral Internal Medicine, finally let out a sigh of relief.

Internal medicine doctors generally don’t need to perform surgeries, but that doesn’t mean the probability of the curse objects within them going out of control and backfiring is less than that of surgeons. The male doctor took the diagnosis that He Jinghan had printed out and asked, "Then how often should I come for a follow-up, Dr. He?"

"In a month’s time. Of course, that is assuming no clinical symptoms appear," He Jinghan continued, "Of course, based on my experience..."

At this point, she suddenly felt something was amiss.

Her hand, which was typing on the keyboard, stopped, and she glanced over her shoulder.

Behind her... there was nothing.

And there shouldn’t be anything. If a ghostly entity were to invade this clinic, the curse object inside would immediately activate.

This was the special consultation room of the Curse Object Department Doctors in the outpatient building. In this eighty-square-meter consultation room, not even a vengeful spirit could slip in unnoticed.

If one could actually do that...

Then it was highly likely to be a Malevolent Ghost or even a Cursing Spirit.

"What’s the matter, Dr. He?" the male doctor asked with a puzzled look.

He Jinghan shook her head, "It’s nothing. You can leave now."

He was also the last doctor to come in today. After him, there would be no one else.

After the male doctor left, He Jinghan stood up.

At this moment, she was still recalling the scene where she had handed the Black Skull Curse Object over to Fei Jingyan.

Actually, she also wanted to know the results of the curse rationale examination report for the Black Skull Curse Object from her department as soon as possible. That Black Skull was also of great concern to her.

"I really want to know what level of Malevolent Ghost curse this is."

At least, the materialized Karma Force was something she had never seen before. Even with the experience of being a former surgeon in the Spectral Surgery Department, she couldn’t make a judgment.

She slowly walked towards the wall behind her, her eyes intently focused.

Through this wall was the storage for curse objects. Various surgically removed curses would be stored here as curse objects, waiting for Curse Object Department Doctors to collect them.

Logically, the curse objects that were registered for storage today should have already been taken away.

There shouldn’t be any curse objects left here anymore.

Although thinking this, He Jinghan began to realize that something was not right.

She raised her hand, touching the wall, and then, little by little, merged her body into the wall.

The next moment, she witnessed an unbelievable scene.

The Black Skull Curse Object, which was supposed to have already been taken away, was still properly placed within the curse object storage!

"Impossible..."

He Jinghan, having served as a Curse Object Department Doctor until now, had never encountered such a situation!

This turn of events made her scalp tingle for a moment!

"What, what exactly is going on?"

...

At this very moment.

Hai Yunlan was beginning to vaguely regain some memories.

She had forgotten something very important.

The identity of a certain person.

She knew the identity of this person.

"Wumianhui..."

She faintly realized that this was related to Wumianhui.

At that moment, she was walking down the hospital corridor. She wanted to ask the neurologist in detail again when she could recover her memory, or rather, if it was at all possible for her to recover her memory.

This segment of lost memory was very important.

It was a segment that must be reclaimed, no matter what.

Moreover, it had to be recovered quickly, or else something major would happen!

But just as she reached the floor where Neurology was located, she was shocked to find a large number of Wumianhui members wearing black masks occupying the place!

"What’s going on here?"

At this time, a person wearing a mask came out of the office of the neurologist and said, "We’re too late. This doctor has already turned into a black skull."

"But this, in turn, proves that there was indeed a problem. Could it be that among his patients, there was indeed...?"

"Then, we will investigate one by one. We must find out the truth."

Hai Yunlan was stunned by this scene.

"The Faceless Leader is running out of patience. No matter what, we must find out... we must!"

Hai Yunlan quickly fled the hospital, then pulled out a piece of paper from her pocket.

These were the names of three people she had hastily scribbled down when she felt a portion of her memory returning.

"Su Wen," "Dan Ka," "Nian."

These three names had suddenly leaped into her mind at that time.

There was no need to mention Su Wen, whom she had already met.

The other two people, she inquired about from Su Wen, but soon discovered that these two were also residents of the nearby neighborhood.

Dan Ka was the owner of a bar nearby Su Wen’s place, a place where Su Wen often drank. According to Su Wen, Dan Ka was in his forties with a forthright personality, and running the bar, he still had to pay a large sum of protection money to the Wumianhui. The amount was hefty, equalling one-third of the bar’s monthly income. After the protection fee was paid, the Faceless Leader would place a sign inside the bar indicating it was under the Wumianhui’s protection, warding off anyone daring to cause trouble. Of course, Wumianhui members freeloading was another matter entirely.

As for Nian, she was a female singer who performed thrice weekly at Dan Ka’s bar, playing the guitar and singing. Compared to Dan Ka, Su Wen didn’t know much about Nian and hardly interacted with her. However, he remembered that Wumianhui members often harassed her. If it wasn’t for Dan Ka intervening on her behalf, she possibly would have encountered misfortune.

"The very dangerous thing I did must have been to investigate the identity of the Faceless Leader. Yes, that must have been it. But still, I can’t be clear on which of the three is the Faceless Leader."

She had lost her memory.

And that lost memory included the real identity of the Faceless Leader.

The Faceless Leader had to be one of these three people.

It was unlikely they shared the same name, because when Su Wen mentioned the other two’s identities, she also felt a sense of familiarity.

However, that being said, even if the truth were discovered, how would she deal with the Faceless Leader?

And most crucially, who among them was the Faceless Leader? This was still a complete mystery to Hai Yunlan.

But why had the neurologist turned into a black skull? And considering what they said about the situation "proving there’s definitely a problem"...

It seemed almost as if the doctor had been silenced through murder!

Is the black skull something that can be achieved through human means?

"After death, do malevolent spirits curse their killers... is that it?"

The problem was...

Who caused this?

Unbeknownst to her, outside the hospital, Song Ran was making a phone call.

"Brother, I made my move... That doctor is dead... Only the dead can keep a secret!"
