There are people coming and going in the Mihua General Hospital. Nurses in light blue clothes are moving around the wards they are in charge of, carrying various items needed by patients.

The single room was covered with reddish-brown plastic flooring, but the color of the overhead light was very cold. A faint smell of disinfectant could be smelled in the room.

On the cabinet next to it, there was a simple night light and an electronic alarm clock connected to a wire.

There is a button for calling the nurse at the head of the bed, and a name tag is hung on the bed.

Thick curtains blocked the night view outside the window.

The time is now seven o'clock in the evening, but it is already completely dark.

dong dong dong.

"Ma'am, I have brought you warm water as you requested."

Hearing the nurse's call outside the door, Li An put down the physical examination report in his hand, threw off the quilt, got out of bed and opened the door.

Yuko "escorted" her through a tedious physical examination, and after seeing her admitted to the hospital, she left first.

He didn't seem to be worried at all about whether she would slip away from the hospital.

Forget it, it doesn’t matter.

Anyway, all parties are on vacation.

Li An took the hot water and tray from the nurse and mouthed thank you.

The nurse was a very young girl, about the same age as her. She was wearing a mask, so one could only see her pointed eyebrows and bright eyes.

Knowing her situation, the nurse simply arched her eyebrows at her and said, "This is my duty."

Li An also smiled at her.

Seeing the friendly girl who seemed to be the same age as her, the nurse unconsciously became more talkative.

"Ma'am, if possible, I suggest you change the ward. Next door..."

She peeked out from the door and saw that the door of the next ward was closed. She breathed a sigh of relief and continued to talk to Li An.

"The gentleman in the next ward is a famous Maori detective. He has been saying that he saw someone murder someone these past few nights, and the patients in the entire hospital can't rest..."

She started complaining about what had happened in the hospital recently, and it was obvious that she had been resentful for a long time.

"I encountered it twice when I was on duty at night..."

Upon hearing the news, Li An fell strangely silent.

Well, she couldn't speak originally.

In order to continue listening to her story, Li An cooperated and expressed her shock.

After receiving the response, the nurse wanted to say more, but was quickly interrupted by an acquaintance.

"Doctor Ogawa."

"Keiko, Dr. Shirai wants you to make him a cup of coffee and send it over."

"Okay...Okay, I'll go right away!"

"Wait a minute." Xiaochuan called her again, and as if remembering something, he reminded her again, "Remember to prepare two more bags of candy."

The nurse nodded, looked around the ward, and after making sure that no necessary supplies were missing, she prepared to leave.

"If you have any urgent matters, you can press the emergency button at the bedside, or you can go directly to the front desk to find my other colleagues."

"Then I'll take my leave now."

Li An nodded silently in thanks and watched the nurse leave like the wind before turning his head back to look at Xiaochuan with some confusion.

The person in front of me said he was an acquaintance, but it was just that I had met him once and had experienced a case together.

If they hadn't seen the doctor's name tag, neither of them would have known his name.

Ogawa, a surgeon at Beihua General Hospital.

The father of the kidnapped child in the Morning Glory Incident.

Although Li An didn't say anything, her meaning was obviously: I remember you are a surgeon, what are you doing here?

Xiaochuan obviously understood her expression and coughed twice in embarrassment: "It's like this, I heard about your situation from Dr. Chishima, and I think I can suggest that you seek treatment from an authoritative psychologist..."

Li An stared silently at the doctor in front of him, then took out a notebook from his pocket and wrote a line of words neatly on it.

"Doctor Chishima has already instructed you on what you said."

"No, no, no, I mean, I know a psychiatrist." Xiaochuan explained quickly, "He is my junior, and he switched to psychology because of a hand injury. If you need, I can introduce you to him."

Hearing this, Li An's pen tip paused slightly.

A “psychologist” who “had a hand injury”?

Dr. Ogawa did not notice this and still seriously recommended the doctors he knew.

After all, this girl... and her friend, although that person talked a lot, they really saved his child.

He still wants to help wherever he can.

"He had a previous case of a child who was psychologically blind due to kidnapping, and he was cured."

Dr. Ogawa recalled the condition of the child he had treated at that time.

"She is very similar to your current situation."

"If that's okay with you, I can give you a copy of his business card."

Dr. Ogawa took out a business card from his bag and handed it to Li An.

Li An took the business card, on which was clearly written a name: Fudo Kyosuke.

Well, this is it.

Kuriyasu's pen was "running fast" and he began to ask Ogawa about all the experiences of Mr. Fuhu.

After being asked all kinds of questions, Xiaochuan suddenly felt that this girl seemed to be more talkative than her friend.

Of course, it may also be because her illness is indeed difficult to treat.

After some self-strategy, Ogawa patiently answered questions.

……

The night was as peaceful and quiet as ever, and the alarm clock was running on schedule, making a gentle clicking sound.

11:30 p.m.

Boom boom bang!

There was a loud noise coming from next door, and the faint sound of an alarm clock.

It seemed that Mr. Maori's voice was still shouting.

Li An woke up vaguely, looked at the time, and then closed her eyes again.

Then I felt something was not right.

The only light in the room was from the corridor coming through the crack in the door, and two dark shadows walked hurriedly past the door.

But the sound didn't come from the corridor.

dong dong dong.

Da da da da…

Not the wind.

Li An turned sideways and narrowed his eyes slightly.

The color of the curtains seemed darker than before.

dong dong dong.

Li An sighed and turned on the bedside lamp.

Her shadow in the room was very long, as if it merged with the shadow on the curtains.

The shadow outside the curtain was even shaking.

A bit like a person?

It seemed that the lights were turned on inside, and the sounds outside became more urgent.

Boom boom boom, boom boom.

Li An yawned, wiped a few tears, got out of bed, opened the curtains, and then saw a familiar figure in white.

My own younger brother.

Kaito Kuroba was wearing his signature white tuxedo, with his long cape and the tassels of his monocle hanging naturally. He took off his white top hat, tossed it casually, and gave her an upside-down smile.

Li An also gave a sleepy smile, but quickly put it away.

Through the gap in the window, she saw a huge beam of light sweeping across the grass, and a rumbling sound gradually approaching.

It’s quite a big scene.

Li An woke up a little and stopped being in a daze. He opened the window and reached out to pull Kaito into the ward.

Kaito had just stood firm and before he had time to explain anything, Li An pulled out the poker gun on his waist and put a poker card in it.

boom--

Launch the clothes and cloak he had taken off along with the playing cards.

The playing cards began to burn inside the cloak, which swelled up a bit, then quickly collapsed like a punctured balloon, fluttering down onto the grass.

The moment Li An pulled the curtains, several searchlights focused on him at the same time.

"Hurry! He's in the hospital!!"

"But...it will disturb..."

"Officer, we just received a call from Mihua General Hospital. Someone was killed!"
