Chapter 65 Hospital No. 666 (15+16)

Xie Xingshui did not catch up again, probably because he had other things to do.

So Fang Ruo found a place to hide for a while, and opened the small box.

The box is made of wood. Although the box is a bit heavy, there is not much in it.

It was an upside-down photo frame, and on the photo frame was a sheet of letter paper that was sealed in a plastic bag and then put into a kraft bag.

It can be said to be well preserved.

Fang Ruo looked at the letter first, it was a letter addressed to the director of the orphanage.

"To the director of No. 6 Welfare Institute:

Zhan Xinyue.

Since I don't know your gender and name, it is difficult to address you, so I hope you can forgive me for calling you a kind person without permission.

I have heard a little about your deeds of helping handicapped children, and I am very grateful.But to be honest, I am not writing this letter to express my respect, but my friends and I have rescued a group of orphans. Although they are not handicapped children, they are also helpless.The consumption in the city is too high, and my friends and I can't support the expenses. I want to beg you again with a shy face to allow us to bring them to stay together.

...

I assure you that I will restrain these children and will not harm your children.The two of us are everyone minds their own business, I hope you can give the children a place to stay in this chaotic time.

The person you rejected once: Sheng Songhe"

In the middle is a long section of Sheng Songhe describing the misery of these children to the director of the orphanage.

interesting.

Fang Ru put the handwritten letter back into the leather bag.

The director of mental hospital No. 666 is Sheng Songhe.

Combined with what they did and what they said, Tang Hao Fang Ruo felt that the story line of this dungeon had already come out.

Fang Ruo turned out the upside-down photo frame at the bottom, and found that it was a group photo.

Sheng Songhe and his friends are easy to recognize because they are either the dean or director of the hospital now.

It's just that Fang Ruo only found two people, and one woman was missing.

As for the dean of the orphanage, it's a bit strange.

She was wearing a black uniform that looked a bit like a western nun. She was tall and thin, with protruding cheekbones. She looked at the camera through very dark and dark glasses, and she was inexplicably cold.

At first glance, it looks like a nun bent down by a demon in a horror movie, but it is a bit different from the "good-hearted person" image mentioned in the letter.

It seems that the dean of No. 6 Orphanage finally agreed to Sheng Songhe's request and allowed them to enter No. 6 Orphanage without blocking the children from both sides.

The children in the No. 6 orphanage are really obvious. They are a little unconfident when facing the camera, dodging, and trying to hide their physical defects.

The children brought by Sheng Songhe looked a little messy, but they were much healthier than them, and they were much more generous when facing the camera.

Fang Ruo didn't know what the dean of No. 6 Welfare Institute was thinking at the time, but he could tell at a glance.

The child Sheng Songhe brought was not as bleak as he said in the letter.They even pretended to be miserable, and two of them still looked very strong.

this story...

Already obvious.

I just don't know why Sheng Songhe entered the No. 6 orphanage.

Take these people to cheat food and drink?

Fang Ruo counted and found that when the group photo was taken here, there were only 12 children beside the dean, and there was no thirteenth.

Interesting.

At first, he guessed whether "doll No. 13" happened because of Sheng Songhe's arrival, but if this group photo was the first group photo taken by Sheng Songhe when they came, why didn't doll No. 13 participate?

and.

Fang Ruo took a closer look. The doctors, security guards, and nurses in the hospital could all find something in the children brought by Sheng Songhe. Only as the doctor of patient 13, Xie Xingshui did not.doesn't show up on this.

He obviously came here to "clean up his sins", but he is not a child here?

Fang Ruo looked at the people in No. 6 Welfare Institute thoughtfully, why do they... all look alike?

He suddenly had a somewhat bizarre conjecture.

Fang Ruo decided to go and see if Xie Xingshui took the box first.

His side was not far from the lake, and before he got close to the dead tree, Fang Xie first noticed that the soil underground had been turned over, and the box on the tree was gone.

Fang Xiu squatted down in front of the dead tree and looked carefully at the grass.

Although Xie Xingshui covered it up a bit, it was a grass field after all, and he couldn't just copy and paste a piece of grass next to it to cover it up.

Fang Ruo pulled out a knife and scratched it twice, but he didn't see anything, but he judged from the content of the soil, what was buried here before was dug away by Xie Xingshui.

Fang Ruo stood up, walked around the dead tree, and noticed a deep scratch on the dead tree that looked a bit old. He raised his eyebrows thoughtfully.

The reason why Xie Xingshui didn't continue to pursue Fang Ruo was not that he had other things to do, but that he was stopped by "people".

He went to get the small wooden box, opened it and found that it was a rabbit doll, and threw the rabbit doll into the lake.

Because he knows what this rabbit doll represents.

This rabbit doll is a representative of one of the thirteen children in the orphanage.

It's fine for Fang Ruo to carry it, it's like carrying a death buff on his back.

Although he is not afraid of these things, if he wants to play the TE line, he just can't kill casually.

——In fact, he shouldn't bet with Fang Ruo on who will hit the TE line first, but should bet on who will get the money first.

But that would be boring and unfair.

Unfair game means nothing even if you win.

Xie Xingshui looked at the little girl floating in front of him, holding a wet rabbit doll in one hand, and a little girl with a skull in the other..

He looked at the skull in the little girl's hand from the corner of his eye, and sighed softly in his heart.

No wonder.

It seems that Fang Ruo helped the little girl find the ball with something.

The little girl stared at Xie Xingshui, as if she was distinguishing something, and soon her dark pupils were no longer so rigid, but revealed a monstrous hatred, so that her whole body felt differentup.

If it was calm before and a bit weird at most, then now there is a strong sense of oppression.

Xie Xingshui hugged her chest and looked at her, without even tensing up at all.

He knew that the little girl couldn't hear, so he didn't say much, but turned around and left.

Holding the two things in her arms, the little girl leaned over suddenly and was about to hit him, probably because she had become a wraith, and there was a red streamer behind her, and black mist gradually lingered around her.

This is a sign of her gradual turning to Wraith.

However, Xie Xingshui did not dodge in the slightest, and just continued to walk forward. The moment the little girl bumped into him, all the tragic scenes imagined—no matter which side it was from—did not appear.

Because the little girl passed through his body directly, and floated in front of Xie Xingshui again.

The little girl seemed to be stunned. She stood still and let Xie Xingshui pass through her and disappeared on this floor.

Xie Xingshui took the elevator downstairs, looked at the beating red numbers in the elevator, and murmured softly: "Sure enough."

The reason why he couldn't resist the little girl's attack was because he still had a guess that needed to be verified, and the verification has been successful now.

When he was taking Fang Ruo's box on the dead tree, he noticed something in the grass.

Ashamed to say, he can find out that it is also a different kind of "cheating".

He used some of his own characteristics to perceive because he is not human.

Buried there was a book sealed in a ziplock bag.

The notebook belongs to the director of the orphanage, and it is not a diary, but a simple record.

What are "the number x is in good condition today", "the number x is not feeling well today", "the number x has no reaction after taking the medicine", "the number x is much better after taking the medicine".

It didn't say what kind of medicine it was, and it didn't say what it was recording, but the cold text looked like it was secretly carrying out some human experiments.

But because don't know what kind of experiment it is, there are not many points that attract attention.

The only thing Xie Xingshui cares about is that there is nothing about "Number 13".

From the director's records, it can be seen that the patients No. 3, No. 4, No. 5, No. 7, and No. 9 in the hospital can all correspond to the "good condition" records in the notebook.

Because the other numbers have more or less records of discomfort, only these six are different, they have not experienced discomfort once.

And the hospital 20 years later has no other uncomfortable "numbers" that have appeared.

But there is also patient No. 13 in the hospital, who is also the only patient without suspected DID symptoms.

Number 13 in the nursery rhyme also came to an abrupt end.

Number 13...is there anything special?

Xie Xingshui got out of the elevator.

I don't know how much Fang Ruo has guessed now, but it is probably about the same as him.

Even with Fang Ruo's brain that makes God wonder how it grew... there may be more.

Xie Xingshui had just left the building when he saw Fang Ruo holding the box in his hand, leaning against the wall and waiting for him.

Xie Xingshui was not surprised, because he also planned to find Fang Ruo.

Fang Ruo glanced at Xie Xingshui's hand, and temporarily put these questions outside of this dungeon in the back row.

Ask after the copy is over.

Fang Ru tilted his head slightly, raised the corner of his mouth and looked at the unsurprising Xie Xingshui: "Doctor Xie, it seems that we still have to cooperate for the time being."

Fang Ruo thinks this dungeon is really interesting.

People with two identities obviously want to compete for the only TE line, but they must work together to continue the dungeon.

Xie Xingshui sighed softly: "As expected, you guessed it too."

Fang Ru raised his eyebrows: "It's not difficult to guess."

He gestured to Xie Xingshui: "Exchange clues?"

Xie Xingshui has no comment.

So the two simply sat in the unopened casual coffee area of the office building—as for how to get in, of course it was a non-violent lockpicking method.

Fang Ruo first told all the clues on his side, including the little girl who gave him a doll and asked for his help, including the part where he forced the dean and the box he snatched from the dean.

He even pushed the box to Xie Xingshui to show Xie Xingshui the photos.It can be said that there is no reservation.

Because there is no need.

They have to cooperate first to open the second thread of this instance.

It is a bit long for Xie Xingshui to talk about clues.

The first is that the pre-plots of the game are different, and there are too many tasks compared to Fang Xing, and the second is the different clues that come into contact with due to different identities.

Xie Xingshui: "I took the ball because I saw number six staring at the ball outside the ward when we split up at night. And number four was cutting the leather, and number three seemed to put something on the leather.Wrap it up."

Fang Ruo was thoughtful: "So this is a chain, who killed that skull, and then let the children 'dismember'. The reason why No. 3 stuffed the skull is probably because No. 3 is blind and can't see."

In the nursery rhyme, "Doll No. 3 is like a zombie, you can't let go of your hands." In Fang Ruo's view, it means that the blind will raise their hands and feel their way forward.

In fact, No. 3 in the group photo is indeed hiding behind the dean with his eyes closed.

"Speaking of..."

Fang Ruo turned back the photo where Xie Xingshui had turned it upside down, because Xie Xingshui and Xie Xingshui were sitting side by side, and the photo was in front of Xie Xingshui. His movements made him and Xie Xingshui's shoulders and arms touch each other.The same goes for people with long legs.

Knees are next to each other.

But Fang Ruo didn’t seem to notice it, and signaled Xie Xingshui to look at it: “34579 and other staff in the orphanage are more inclined towards the director. If the director is regarded as the center, then they are the circle closest to the center. As for the othersThe 1, 2, 8, 10, 11, and 12 are more like 6 as the center, and they stand more biased, more like a group-style station."

Xie Xingshui's gaze shifted for a moment before returning to the photo, but half of it still landed on Fang Ruo's finger: "Well, I guess these 6 people are not only centered on No. 6, but also more together with No. 6."In favor of number 13."

Fang Ru pursed his lips, in such a good mood that he responded with a bit of brisk tone: "great minds think alike."

Unlike Zhuang Meng and the others, Zhuang Meng was able to keep up with his thinking after he proposed it, but Xie Xingshui had the same thinking as him, and it didn't need him to raise it, but he himself had the same thinking as him.Same guess.

They all thought that No. 6 Welfare Institute itself was a bit fragmented before Sheng Songhe came in.

Split into two groups, one is the unrecorded No. 13, and the other is the dean of the orphanage.

As for why the two broke up, Fang Ruo felt that the reason was really obvious.

This photo says it all.

The nun doesn't like the two numbers 6 and 13, but she didn't avoid them, which means that in her eyes, the numbers 6 and 13 are not the two children she likes.

Fang Ruo looked at Xie Xingshui, and turned a blind eye to the act of keeping a certain expression on his face, which made him and him completely stick together.

Who made him feel better.

Fang Ruo likes this resonance.

From the beginning, Rust pursued to find this sense of resonance in human beings, so as to prove that he is also human.

Now he discovers that it doesn't have to be human.

——Maybe it’s because haven’t found it all the time, so lowered the requirements.

Xie Xingshui continued: "It was only this morning that I was completely sure that the bones in the lake were all people who were in this photo but not in this hospital. But I don't know what exactly happened. Those people were just 'sins' one by one..”

Fang Xing hummed: "But there are many people in this hospital who are not compatible, such as those mental patients. Although they have this number, they don't look like children from the orphanage."

As for the children brought by Sheng Songhe, they have either become security guards, nurses, or doctors of this hospital.

The two spoke at the same time: "It may be that someone came later, or the two parties combined to have offspring."

Fang Ruo paused for a moment, with a smirk on the corner of his mouth, while looking at Xie Xingshui with his head tilted, he happened to meet Xie Xingshui's gaze that never moved away from him unless necessary.

He really loves to stare at him.

Fang Ruo thought.

The staff of the orphanage is not only the director alone, Sheng Songhe and the others also have many adults, and even the orphanage and Sheng Songhe have children who seem to be fifteen or sixteen years old, so they live together in isolation.Love is nothing strange.

but……

Fang Xi lowered his eyes slightly, thinking that there might be a third possibility.

After all, the human heart is sinister.

"What stone did you throw into the lake?"

"have no idea."

Xie Xingshui said leisurely: "Anyway, I didn't tell me what it was. I just said it was a sacrifice. It looks very similar to the black pill you took this morning, but it's more than twenty times bigger."

After Xie Xingshui said this, Fang Ruo touched his stomach.

His movements attracted Xie Xingshui's eyes, and then he raised his hand very naturally to touch his abdominal muscles: "What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"

Fang Ruo grabbed his wrist and said in a cool tone, "Doctor Xie, don't push yourself too hard."

Xie Xingshui let him hold on, with a smile and innocence in his eyes: "I am just a doctor caring about my only patient."

Fang Ruo smiled slightly: "Doctor Xie, don't jump to conclusions so quickly. It is still unclear who is the number 13."

Xie Xingshui paused for a moment, then sighed in a low voice: "As expected, you guessed this too."

Fang Ruo shrugged: "After all, my thinking is indeed a little different from that of ordinary people."

Hospital No. 666 was formerly No. 6 Welfare Institute. Combined with the clues that have emerged so far, two problems will arise here.

First, how did the orphanage change from a welfare institution to a mental hospital?

Second, if Patient 13 is really so difficult, how did Sheng Songhe feel at ease and let a doctor take care of Patient 13?

The first guess is that not only patients suffer from mental illness, but doctors may also suffer from it.

We must know that there are many kinds of mental illnesses. It is not necessarily that people who appear to be "nervous" are mentally ill, but they may also be some other mental illnesses.

Such as neurasthenia.

——Of course not so light, but rather special ones, as mentioned in the pre-plot.

After all, from Fang Ruo’s point of view, whether it is No. 13’s paranoia, pica, or other patients’ suspected DID, it seems that it is not particularly difficult for ordinary people to understand.

So Fang Ruo thought, could there be a possibility that he is really not No. 13, but a doctor who was brainwashed by No. 13 to think that he is No. 13 and pretends to be a doctor by No. 13?

If that's the case...

Fang Ruo looked at Xie Xingshui.

Then number 13 will only be Xie Xingshui.

And No. 13 is not delusional disorder, pica, or dangerous personality.

But more terrifying.

Fang Ruo had watched a thriller and suspense movie in the real world.

The story is probably a villain protagonist, who brainwashed the entire hospital, making all the medical staff in the hospital think that they are patients, and the patients think that they are doctors, thus reversing the roles.

Even when new medical staff came to the hospital later, those patients who thought they were doctors told them not to approach a certain ward, saying that the patients in that ward were dangerous and not to have any conversations with him.

But in fact, there is no longer the patient in that ward, but the attending doctor of the patient.

And the doctor in charge has been brainwashed to the point that he firmly believes that he is the protagonist, and even tries to brainwash others, and his behavior and language are exactly the same as the protagonist.

In the end, the ending of the film does not say who is the patient and who is the doctor, but there are many details in the movie that imply that doctors are not doctors and patients are not patients.

And there is an open discussion at the end——

Has the protagonist brainwashed himself, forgetting that he is actually a patient?

Fang Ruo quite liked that movie, it was one of the few movies he watched twice.

So Fang Xiu still retains that doubt.

He and Xie Xingshui, who is No. 13?

He had already guessed this, and Xie Xingshui didn't hide it, and told about Number Six's attempt to attack him and his failure.

Fang Ruo pondered: "I want to attack you because I hate you, which means that in her eyes you are not 'one of my own', or even an 'enemy'. But she can't attack you, because of your particularity?"

"The dungeon will be offset, just like the identity buff brought by the dungeon can also affect me. Otherwise, how can I play the game if it is really like what you think?"

Xie Xingshui knew what he was implying, he said leisurely: "After this version update, the dungeons have been collectively strengthened a lot, and this body doesn't even have a billionth of it."

He was also giving Fang Ruo a hint.

Gods... are they really that strong?

Xie Xingshui is only the second god, and it has already reached this point...

Fang Ruo temporarily put aside these thoughts, and continued to discuss the dungeon with him: "She can't attack you, maybe it's because she is a spirit body and can't attack you, but I think it's more like—"

Fang Ru raised his lips, and squinted at Xie Xingshui: "Because of the dungeon status, she can't hurt you."

In their guess, No. 6 and No. 13 should be from the same camp.

Fang Ruo didn't say a word, but he felt that Xie Xingshui probably thought so too.

The skull in the ball may be number 13.

What Fang Ruo meant was that Xie Xingshui was the number 13.

But here comes the problem again.

Fang Ruo felt that the competitive relationship between himself and Xie Xingshui was obvious. Why did No. 6 seek his help and be hostile to Xie Xingshui?

There are two possibilities.

One, No. 6 and No. 13 have turned against each other, but it doesn't look like it from the little girl's reaction.

Two, No. 6 can't recognize who No. 13 is, and even Fang Ruo thinks that the little girl mistook herself for No. 13.

Xie Xingshui's thinking is almost the same as Fang Ruo's: "If I am number 13, what about you? A doctor who is driven crazy? I think your identity is not that simple."

The two looked at each other, and without further ado, they both understood what the other meant.

——If No. 13 dies, then Xie Xingshui is now the same as the little girl, a spirit body, but for some special reasons, it is no different from ordinary people.

For example, it is caused by the product of evil gods.

The dean takes in all disabled children, and there are also autistic children. Will there be real DID patients?

Fang Ruo and Xie Xingshui are both number 13.

Fang Ruo habitually packed up his things and put them in the box, and as if thinking of something, he chatted a little off-topic: "Where did you put the rabbit?"

Xie Xingshui's expression paled for a moment: "I lost it in the lake."

Fang Ru hugged it for a long time.

Fang Ruo: "...I think the little girl on the 6th really likes her doll."

They are also hugging in the photo group photo.

Xie Xingshui groaned, and said quietly, "What's none of my business?"

Fang Ruo's expression was indescribable, and he said in his heart that it's a good thing you won't have children in the future.

The author has something to say:

This copy ends on Saturday~

A small digression: This dungeon wastes almost 10,000 words of manuscript, hey, when will I write the plot flow and not waste the manuscript (Wang Tianlaiping.jpg)
