Chapter 1096 - The Ghost Fetus Special Power 2 in 1 (1/2)
“There is no fixed arrangement of the numbering of the rooms in this building. From my observation, they do not appear to be arranged according to the floors that they are on. But it should be the case where every room here corresponds to one of the patients from the cursed hospital.”
Chen Ge turned to look at the second room on the first floor. The number for this room was 0049.
“At the cursed hospital, the lower your number, the more serious your illness is deemed to be. That means that the room that I just visited belong to a patient who suffered from a mild illness.”
Chen Ge walked to the door of the second room on the first floor. Once again, he leaned on the window and looked through it. The interior of Room 0049 was also mainly white. The furniture and wallpaper were all white, giving it a very clean finish. The door was not locked, so Chen Ge walked in directly.
“Hey! I don’t think we should wander into people’s rooms. We might get chased out by people again like how in Block 1.” For now, Xiao Sun just wanted to survive safely until dawn. What had happened that night was indeed a bit hard to swallow for a ‘normal person’ like himself.
Chen Ge ignored Xiao Sun.
As he entered the room, he was ready to use Yin Yang Vision when he suddenly felt lightheaded. It felt like the world had suddenly given way underneath his feet.
My body seems to be weakening due to the multiple uses of Yin Yang Vision.
Every time Chen Ge used Yin Yang Vision, it would cause a certain amount of pressure on his body. Chen Ge had never noticed this before, but in this world behind the door, he could feel the damage brought upon by the Yin Yang Vision very clearly. Every time he used Yin Yang Vision, his body temperature would experience a very slight change.
“Chen Ge, are you okay?” He felt someone hold him by his elbow. Chen Ge turned back to look and realized that Wen Qing had moved to stand beside him. This mother was a good caretaker.
“Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine.”
To give himself a break, Chen Ge stopped using his talents like Yin Yang Vision, Spirit Sniff, and Ghost Ear. This meant that the world around them was soon enveloped in darkness, and the only source of light in the room came from Wen Qing’s phone.
After closing the door behind them, Chen Ge dragged Doctor Skull Cracker’s Hammer as he walked around the room. Out of his expectations, he found nine diaries inside Room 0049. The material for each diary and their cover looked identical, and the patient’s number for all nine diaries was 0049. With unbridled curiosity, Chen Ge flipped through the diaries one by one, and he realized that the content of all the diaries had little variation to them. They were practically the same.
“Why would the patient inside Room 0049 record the same thing nine times?”
After Chen Ge gave them a closer read, he slowly understood the reasoning behind it. Even though the content of these nine diaries was the same, the tone and angle of description for the events that transpired were wildly different. In other words, the diaries gave the impression that there were nine different people inside this room describing the same thing that occurred from nine different perspectives. None of the nine diaries had the date written down anywhere. If he just read one of them, he would have been utterly confused by its entries. But when he placed all of the diaries together and read them at the same time, he made a startling discovery.
“These nine diaries should be written by one single person.” Chen Ge laid all nine diaries on the ground and turned them all to the first page.
The first diary: “A new patient just arrived at the hospital. Its patient’s number was blocked off. Its body was wrapped in bandages used for dead bodies, so you could not see its face at all. This is all so mysterious. I stood at the window and looked for half an hour. The doctors appeared to be hesitating which sickroom to place the new patient in.”
The second diary: “It has been so long since this floor has welcomed a new patient. My big brother told me to mind my own business. He has gotten so old that he has become afraid of even the smallest thing. I swear I will never become someone like him when I grow up.”
The third diary: “There are practically no empty rooms from Room 1 to Room 50. Which room do you think they will deposit the new patient in?”
The fourth diary: “I personally hope that it will move in together with us. Do you know how nauseous I feel because I have to face the eight of you day in and day out? What can I do to get away from you people? How about each of us pick a body part and then we can go our separate ways from there? That sounds like a good idea, right?”
The fifth diary: “Every one of you wants to claim the head. Obviously, that is unrealistic. I suggest we separate and split the body parts according to their weight. That is the fairest method.”
The sixth diary: “Stop arguing! You b*stards that have taken over my home! I am the real Patient 0049! You bunch thieves! Madmen! Idiots! Crazies! Get out of my home!”
The seventh diary: “Sister Six has started her mad ravings again. Can any of you kindly make her shut up?”
The eighth diary: “Calm down now. Stop arguing. In terms of pathology, all nine of us are split personalities. There is no difference in superiority among the nine of us. We should see each other as an equal.”
The ninth diary: “So tell me again, why did the nine of us agree to consume and tear up the main persona again? If we continue to split mentally like this, this room will only get more and more crowded.”
Nine diaries represented nine different personalities. Just a skim through them caused Xiao Sun’s skull to go numb, but Chen Ge appeared to have quite the blast reading through them.
“I feel like these nine diaries are random ramblings by a mad person. It is filled with crazy words. None of the content can be trusted.” Xiao Sun had placed all his hope on Chen Ge. He was worried that Chen Ge might be influenced by these diaries.
“You think they are crazy, but they will mock you for being an idiot.” Chen Ge knelt on the ground. By reading through the nine diaries again, he had a new discovery. “Patient 0049 suffers from schizophrenia, but his situation is rather unique because the personalities that he has created have somehow murdered the main persona, or to quote their own words, they have consumed the main persona.”
“A persona can be consumed?”
“Well, I am no expert on that. Who knows? This might be a case where their main psychiatrist purposely planted this impression in their mind.”
Chen Ge shook his head. The cursed hospital had no bottom line. Instead of treating their patients, they would often exacerbate the smallest psychological disorder into full on mental illness in their patients.
