chasing the dark

Chapter 53 Jing'an Hospital
The first time Jiang Yu saw Jing'an Hospital, he thought of the detention center.

There are heavy iron gates and high walls, but there are no armed police soldiers standing guard.

I showed my ID at the door, and the police’s visit seemed to be a common thing for the door guards. They didn’t ask too much, but told them to go to the first floor of the building opposite the door to find the nurse on duty.

Walking all the way in, there are people walking in the yard, and some people chatting together. There is a circle of people around the stone table under the shade of the trees, drinking and playing poker.

Even if these people are wearing hospital gowns, they can't see any difference between them and normal people.

As he was walking forward, Ye Zhanzhou suddenly said in a low voice: "You think too much, most of the people here just have psychological problems. As long as you don't leave the door, you can move around in the yard as you like."

Jiang Yu snorted: "How do you know what I'm thinking?" It's not the roundworm in my stomach.Of course, she just thought about the second half of the sentence in her heart and didn't say it.

"Look at that expression on your face." Ye Zhanzhou chuckled, "I almost had the word surprise written on my face."

I went to the first floor to inquire, and the nurse on duty understood their purpose, hesitated for a while, and said that they should make a phone call first.

After the phone call, she called a male nurse and asked him to take the two of them to a closed ward.

When taking the elevator, the male nurse explained that there are two types of wards in Jing'an Hospital, open and closed.

Most patients live in open wards, and only those with severe depression, bipolar disorder, or violent and aggressive schizophrenia like Jin Xiang live in closed wards.

The elevator stopped at the fifth floor, and an iron fence door completely separated the corridor from the elevator room.

If you think that this is the closed ward area, you are very wrong.

Under the leadership of the male nurse, he went up and down the stairs, passed the iron gate, and took the elevator, walking all the way through mountains and rivers. Just when Jiang Yu wondered if he was playing an escape room, he was finally told "here".

"It's so strict!" Jiang Yu couldn't help but sigh.

"You can't be strict." The male nurse rang the doorbell. "There was a patient who ran out and sneaked into the cafeteria. Fortunately, he was discovered by the master chef in charge of the spoon. It's time for the knife."

After explaining the situation through the intercom, the door finally opened.

What came out was a male doctor in his forties surnamed Chu.

"Eh? It's not good for anyone else, so it must be Jin Xiang." Doctor Chu explained with embarrassment on his face, "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to cooperate, it's just that Jin Xiang is too difficult to deal with here. It can be regarded as the number one dangerous element."

These words came out of his not-so-standard mandarin, with a sense of joy inexplicably.

"It's not that serious, is it?" Ye Zhanzhou smiled.

"Why not!" Dr. Chu moved down the glasses on the bridge of his nose, "Did you see, here it is..."

He pointed a light scar near the eye socket with his finger: "He made this scar. Fortunately, I was quick and quick to hide, otherwise this eye might be useless."

"My face was covered in blood, but I still didn't flinch. In the end, it was six people." Dr. Chu made another gesture of six, emphasizing his tone, "Six people subdued him."

Ye Zhanzhou gave a thumbs up and praised: "You are so brave."

"Of course!" Dr. Chu pulled up his waist, which was not straight, "I am also one of the few people in our hospital with a postgraduate degree."

"Yes, yes, a high-end talent like Dr. Chu is really rare." Ye Zhanzhou said with a smile, "To tell you the truth, we have a very important case at hand. If we don't get Jin Xiang's DNA sample, the case may be destroyed." It's going to be an unsolved case. I think it's going to be all right with you here, isn't it? You see..."

A series of compliments made Dr. Chu flustered, he pursed his lips a few times: "Come in."

The closed ward feels like a prison, and the closed door is guarded by an iron general.

Once in the corridor, various voices filled my ears.

Swearing, singing, talking nonsense... Jiang Yu even heard the sound of "sharpening scissors and turning kitchen knives".

Through the observation window with railings welded on the iron door, you can see the situation inside the ward, whether it is quiet or noisy, all of them are without eyesight and dumbfounded.

The nurse stood in the middle of the corridor. Unlike the open ones of ordinary wards, it was fully enclosed and metal railings were added.

Doctor Chu knocked on the door twice, and then said loudly, "Xiao Qin, take blood!"

"Here, who are you taking blood for?" With the voice, a male nurse with a baby face opened the door.

"Jin Xiang." Doctor Chu replied.

"Damn it!" Xiao Qin's baby face suddenly wrinkled into a bun.

Dr. Chu frowned: "Be civilized! These two are criminal police officers from the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and they need Jin Xiang's blood sample."

Xiao Qin said helplessly: "Wait a minute, I'll get the blood collection needle."

He went back to the house, and when he came out, he not only had multiple trays in his hands, but also a slightly older male nurse behind him.

A group of five people arrived at the penultimate ward at the end of the corridor. Dr. Chu looked at the small window for a while before he waved his head to let the door open.

The door opened, and Doctor Chu signaled Ye Zhanzhou and Jiang Yu to wait outside. After the three of them went in, they locked the door directly.

Jiang Yu looked in from the small window, and saw a little old man sitting on the window sill with his legs curled up, his head leaning on the railing, his eyes turned upside down, empty and lifeless.

She was already thin, but with such a posture, she looked like a small ball.

I was wondering if a strong wind above level five could blow people away, so I heard Dr. Chu ask softly, "Xiao Xiangxiang, how do you feel today?"

Who would have thought that a middle-aged man could actually make such a sweet voice, which made people feel numb from head to toe.

Ye Zhanzhou pulled Jiang Yu aside, his tall body directly blocked the small window tightly.

There was only a thumping sound inside, followed by howls like slaughtering pigs, and eighteen generations of ancestors of doctors and nurses were greeted all over.

After waiting for about 5 minutes, three people with wrinkled clothes and messy hair came out.

"It's really not easy." Dr. Chu straightened his white coat.

Ye Zhanzhou immediately thanked him.

The head nurse Xiaoqin let out a long breath: "Sign it, and this can be taken away."

After signing at the nurse's station, Ye Zhanzhou asked if anyone came to see Jin Xiang.

Both the older male nurse and Dr. Chu said that they had seen Second Uncle Jin Xiang before, but no one came at all in the past two years.

Judging from the descriptions of the two, it is consistent with the physical characteristics described by Ms. Huang to Jin Xiyu.Based on this, it can be basically determined that Jin Xiang is the nephew of Jin Xiyu.

After thanking Dr. Chu and the others repeatedly, Nurse Xiao Qin sent him out.
