“Calm down!” Chen Ge immediately ran to the middle of the corridor. “We’re all allies here; there’s no need to harm each other!”

His back was drenched from being squeezed between two Red Specters. Chen Ge was shocked by this scene himself. Two Red Specters were going to fight it out, but he, a living human, was the mediator. Perhaps it was due to Chen Ge, neither the boy nor Zhang Ya made a move.

In reality, the boy was already compromising. After he woke up, the blood vessels inside the Third Sick Hall had continued to surge into his body, and the more he dragged this out, the more powerful he would become.

“I can give you the old man’s body, but I must keep his head.” There was a unique connection between the boy and the Third Sick Hall. If the Third Sick Hall was a monster, then he was the monster’s child, so he had perfect control of the many things here.

Many blood vessels appeared on the surface of the corridor, and they curled themselves around the old man’s neck. The old man, who had surrendered to his fate, suddenly opened his eyes and started to struggle. Unfortunately, Zhang Ya’s feet were still on his body, so he could not even move.

The blood vessels drilled into the old man’s neck, and the image that happened next was a bit gory. The old man’s scream reverberated down the hall. The blood vessels formed tentacles of sorts and transported the old man’s head to the boy.

“What kind of mistake has the old man made?” Chen Ge was past feeling pity for the man. After all, he did try to kill him earlier.

“When the door was first opened, the man used the patients as test subjects.” The boy’s hollow eyes looked at the head in his arms. “He forced the patients to enter the door and that included my mother.

The boy hugged the man’s head and was smiling sweetly. “He is a very fake and selfish man. The reason I fell asleep was because of him and a few of his patients.”

“Him and a few patients? There are other people inside the door?” Chen Ge nudged toward Zhang Ya; he felt safer being close to Zhang Ya.

“I promised Doctor Chen that I would guard the door after entering it. However, five years ago, the door was forced open from the outside.” The boy started to explain what happened five years ago. “The old man suffered from cancer, and he knew that he wasn’t going to live for long. To extend his life, he turned his interest toward the world behind the door.

“But he was scared, so like so many years ago, he sent a few patients into the door first. The Third Sick Hall was a quarantine building, and the patients there had no family or background, so the whole process was very hush-hush.

“After one week of trials and making sure that there was no danger, the director entered the door with a few patients.” The smile hung on the boy’s face as he petted the old man’s screaming head. “After the door closed, this place became my world, and there is nothing inside the Third Sick Hall that can harm me.

“I didn’t want to harm them; I just wanted to find something to do after so many years of boredom. However, to my surprise, to escape, these people opened the door for the monsters to enter the Third Sick Hall. Some of them even got possessed by these monsters.

“When I discovered this, it was already too late. They trapped me inside the electroshock therapy room and had the dying director look over me while the others escaped with the sin and terror.”

After listening to the boy, Chen Ge nodded. “I’ve seen several patients of the Third Sick Hall in the real world. A thin monster possessed each of them. The old man said that they were a manifestation of human desire.”
