The ink-stained quill was held in one hand and rested on the paper.
"Mr. Lu Li?"
The doctor raised his head and motioned to the dark-haired man sitting opposite.
It was hazy outside the window, filled with gray mist. This scene seemed to have happened in my memory...
"Mr. Lu Li?"
Lu Li, who felt like he was in another world, woke up a little when he called out: "I am a detective."
The doctor frowned slightly, put down the medical record, and sighed: "What I just asked is...there have been a lot fewer patients recently."
"really."
Lu Li woke up from the daze of mental illness and regained his senses.
"So do you have any idea?"
"I'm leaving first." Lu Li said.
Lu Li answered the next few questions as vaguely as possible - because he didn't know anything. The consequence of doing so was that the doctor would not consider him dischargeable - but he would not be considered aggravated either.
The stone man waved his hand honestly: "I don't want to complain about it. It's just that it has been crying since it came back, and it makes me upset..."
"Why is it so early?" the doctor asked confused.
"Why does the nurse seem to hate me?"
"I don't know. But I thought as a doctor, you would be happy to see your patient recover."
Suddenly, the doctor asked: "Can we see heavy fog again?"
The nurse ignored Lu Li and walked straight up the steps to the third floor.
"Do you need help?" Lu Li asked the stone man first.
The office door opened, and the nurse appeared outside the door holding the elder sister's head.
Lu Li glanced past the "crying" curled-up remnant of the drowned man and looked at the other patient - she had been staring at him intently since he came in.
"I don't know...the medical staff are very professional and they won't hate any patient."
[203: The drowned man’s sorrow; the stone demon; the Slavic lady]
"Do you believe it?"
Lu Li followed the nurse back to the second floor and said, "Did you hear everything?"
"Yes, yes, the adulterer is twitching on your wife while talking obscenely."
Lu Li's formulaic answer: "I'm glad they can recover and be discharged from the hospital."
A sudden knock on the door paused the consultation.
"Help? Me?" The stone man moved his stone head, raised his stone fingers and made a stone rubbing sound, pointing at the drowned person and muttered: "Can you make him stop crying?"
"Speaking."
Lu Li, who had a backer, walked straight into Ward 203. After Lu Li appeared, the drowned man was cringing in a ball on the hospital bed, as if Lu Li was the attacker.
"That nurse seems to have some prejudice against me."
Looking at the other two patients from the corner of his eye, one was covered with muscle-like stones. Lu Li had seen its phantom when he was a doorman. The other was like a werewolf with muscles and luxuriant body hair, and was wearing a floral dress.
The doctor looked into those black eyes without a trace of ripples: "So what she said is true?"
"You have timed out."
"Well……"
"Please come in."
"Were you the one who tore its clothes?" a rough voice said.
At this moment, Lu Li, who was about to walk out of the office where the concentration of profanity increased sharply, suddenly stopped: "Can I ask a question?"
The doctor closed the medical chart and said gently after the nurse held the eldest sister's head on the sofa: "Poor child, how heartbreaking it is... to have such a pair of clear brown eyes, but can't see clearly."
The eldest sister’s attention fell on him: “Don’t fucking forget the fucking promise you made to me!”
"Okay, that's it for today, Mr. Lu Li."
"What's wrong kid?"
It was daytime now, and the head nurse was outside. Lu Li looked directly at the stone man fearlessly: "Are you accomplices?"
A formulaic answer was not the answer Lu Li wanted. Lu Li stopped staying and kindly helped the doctor close the door.
As for the drowned person's remorse attacking him again...
Lu Li exhaled after returning to a familiar environment and was about to go to Adang Fuya's place first, when he accidentally saw the door of ward 203 open.
"Just checking to see if you're here."
Lu Li seemed to feel strange and tilted his head slightly, "I'm just a patient. Patients are cured because of your treatment, not me."
However, Lu Li no longer objected to being sent to the third floor. He had a flashlight for night operations, and nearly half of the patients on the second floor had already been sent away by him.
After a brief silence, Lu Li said: "I will avoid any friction with the nurse..."
"No. Today happens to be my favorite rainy day." Lu Li replied calmly.
"I feel like I'm recovering."
"Ethically speaking, I'm on your side. But..." The doctor leaned forward and reminded Lu Li, "Did you know that a room has been vacated on the third floor?"
Then, without warning, Lu Li had images of some patients resisting doctors... Was he the same as them at this moment?
The doctor said quickly as if he was relieved to be saved.
Lu Li looked at the eldest sister's head and couldn't tell that it had no eyes.
The doctor clamped the quill inserted in the ink bottle, picked up the medical chart again, and concluded the pre-clinical conversation, "You have been hospitalized for... two weeks. Do you feel better?"
"Well..." the doctor muttered noncommittally, "the nurse has been complaining to me about you these past few days... She said you have been wandering around every ward recently."
A smile appeared on the doctor's face, but he quickly restrained himself: "But some patients were indeed discharged after coming into contact with you."
"You are very smart."
"I can't lock myself in the ward. As a patient, proper relaxation is helpful for recovery, and I have always abided by the hospital's rules and regulations."
"Don't worry, she has Tourette syndrome." the doctor explained.
In fact, Lu Li had no memory of receiving treatment, and there was no sign of recovery... But this lunatic asylum made him not want to stay too long, even if it was really treating him -
Lu Li still ignored the remnants of the drowned man and looked at Mrs. Slav. The woman was as strong as a brown bear with water stains flowing from the corners of her mouth.
The doctor ignored Lu Li's excuse and continued the topic: "The nurse told me that the discharge of those patients was also related to you."
"The head nurse can vouch for me, I just saw the patient list fall on the floor and picked it up."
Knock knock knock——
"Ahem...of course I'm happy for them." The doctor coughed to cover up his embarrassment and continued to ask: "Then what happened to stealing the patient list?"
A rough question came from behind the curtain at the nurse's station.
"Head nurse?"
Obviously, solving the remnants of the time-stealing drowned person has a higher priority. Moreover, there are still two patients in Ward 203 who have not yet been contacted.
"We are the same." The eldest sister insulted her unceremoniously, regardless of who was speaking, "I can't see, and you can't see that your wife is sleeping with an adulterer."
"Are you hungry?"
"I'm just drooling when I see you." Mrs. Slav's fat eyes concealed greed: "You have a girlfriend——"
"have."
Lu Li doesn't have any memory of his "girlfriend", but at this time, he must have it.
