Truth is everywhere within range

In the reception room, Qiao Qiao and Arizi were sitting on the sofa, waiting.

Ten minutes later, Nishino Hiroshi and two nurses brought over three thick piles of information.

"This is a copy of the reports our hospital submitted to the Yin Yang Agency in the past three years, as well as some records of deceased patients with key information hidden."

Nishino Hiroshi put down the information and said.

Places such as hospitals and nursing homes where the deceased are prone to appear must provide the Onmyoji Office with written reports on the deceased on a regular basis every year. In this way, if there is a wraith or evil spirit at work, the spiritual masters can immediately remove the deceased. As soon as the situation of the deceased is known.

Qiao Qiao was not in a hurry to read the documents. He was not here to remove spirits.

"Dr. Nishino, has anything strange happened in college recently? It can be anything. It doesn't have to be related to weirdness."

He asked, his spiritual vision scanning this side at the same time.

There is not much accumulation of yin energy, which is considered a normal amount for the hospital.

"It's a strange thing, I'm not very good at judging this."

Nishino Hiroshi touched his chin and thought for a moment before speaking.

"To put it this way, things have gone too smoothly recently. Even the students with problems have submitted the first draft of the project, which is a bit unaccustomed to it."

"Is this something strange?"

Ariko asked slightly confused.

"As you know, our medicine generally has a bachelor's and master's degree program, and the bachelor's degree is longer than other majors, so it will become more and more difficult to study later. Several students taught by our professor have had more or less delays. For those who graduated, this year went very smoothly, not a single one, and even the one with the worst grades came up with a very good plan, which made me feel a little uncomfortable."

Nishino Hiroshi said jokingly.

“Isn’t it already a weird thing for students to finish their studies on time?”

Qiao Qiao felt a little emotional and asked again.

"Did any accidental injuries occur here, or did someone see strange things, hear unrealistic sounds or something like that?"

"It doesn't seem like there is."

Nishino Hiroshi recalled for a while and then looked at the two nurses behind him.

"Have you heard patients mention similar things?"

"No."

One nurse shook her head.

"As for this, Ms. Yasuda from the Psychiatric Department seemed to have mentioned before that she has been having nightmares these days."

Another nurse thought for a moment and said.

"However, Ms. Yasuda's mental state is not stable. It is normal to have nightmares and delusions."

Added another sentence.

"Okay, Dr. Nishino, let's take a look at the files here first. Please take us to see Ms. Yasuda this afternoon."

Qiao Qiao made a decision.

The morning passed quickly. Qiao Qiao and Ariko said they were investigating the files, but in fact they didn't find anything valuable from them.

If there were any doubts, Yin Yang Hall was not a vegetarian, so they would have seen the problem long ago.

And if it's something that's not in the report, there won't be any progress just sitting here.

"Inpatient and discharge records, ward arrangements, and department details are quite complete."

Qiao Qiao quickly scanned the information, put it down, and said to Yalizi who had already started playing with her mobile phone.

"It's almost time. Let's go find Dr. Nishino after lunch."

The two called the nurse to sort out the files here and went to the hospital's public cafeteria.

This cafeteria is open to people who come to visit patients, as well as doctors and students from Showa University. It feels a bit like a university cafeteria.

Well, it seems like it’s a university cafeteria.

Qiao Qiao ordered the cheapest fried pork cutlet set meal, while Ariko ordered Tang Yang chicken curry rice.

While the two were eating, Qiao Qiao was still using his vampire abilities to listen to the surrounding sounds.

"Dr. Caiqian seems to be coming home very late recently. He will probably have results soon."

"Is Nurse Sekiguchi very close to Dr. Dong? Are they dating?"

"Wow, have you seen Iwata's girlfriend? She is really beautiful. Where did you meet him? She is obviously an otaku."

"Shh, didn't I have a social meeting two days ago? It just so happened that the other party had a senior from our school. He heard that I was interning in the mental health department and told me about the weird things here."

Various voices reached Qiao Qiao's ears. Compared with asking Dr. Nishino, it seemed that it was easier to collect information in such a city environment.

Qiao Qiao heard something noteworthy and turned his attention away for a while.

Sitting four tables away from them, four Showa University students, two men and two women, were eating and chatting.

The person who spoke was a girl. She was dressed up and looked like she would be the center of attention wherever she went.

"Do you know the legend of the psychiatric sanatorium?"

"What legend?" "Huh? There is such a thing in the psychiatric sanitation department?" "It's a lie."

"That was five years ago. Isn't there a total of six wards in the mental health department with four rooms? The nurse on duty at that time returned to the nurse station after her rounds at night, but when she looked carefully at her round records, she found that, The department that originally housed twenty patients actually had twenty-one patients in the ward round record!"

"What is this, an urban legend?" "I seem to have seen this beginning in some movie or novel."

"The nurse hurriedly compared the ward round records and the list of inpatients, but did not find anyone who was redundant. But indeed, there should be only 20 people in the mental health department, but there is a 21st person!"

"It's because the nurse was dazzled." "I think maybe her spirit needs to be recuperated. Look, isn't there the twenty-first person here?" "Could the extra one be a resentful spirit or something? ?”

"The senior said that this story must be told from fifteen years ago. It was a dark and windy night, and a nurse made her rounds as usual. Unexpectedly, a patient living alone in the ward at the end of the corridor suddenly suddenly As his condition worsened, he developed severe hallucinations and delusions of persecution. He thought the nurse was coming to kill him, so he strangled the nurse to death and also did some very blasphemous things to the nurse's body."

"Wow, that's so cruel." "That's too much." "I really don't want to encounter something like this."

"The most egregious thing is that because the patient had a mental disorder, he was not sentenced to a very serious sentence in the end and was discharged after a while."

"Ah? Why is this so?" "Indeed, if you have a mental disorder, it is easy to get away with the crime." "It would be even more terrifying if you were a minor."

"Well, it was precisely because he died complaining that he was wronged that the ghost of the nurse took up residence in the mental health department. From then on, in the dead of night, the ghost of the nurse would come out to cause trouble, such as secretly tripping up nurses and patients. , or messing up things in the ward or at the nurse’s station, and sometimes there’s a bad smell.”

"That said, when I passed by there before, I did smell a strange smell. It's a bit hard to describe, but it just didn't smell good."

"You just made it up, right?"

"I remember that there are less than ten patients in the psychiatric ward now, right? They should be moving to a new ward."

"I won't go to that kind of department anyway."

"By the way, weren't we talking about the friendship just now? Then, did you sleep with that senior?"

"Oh, who wants to find a doctor?"

"How heartless."

Listening to their fight, Qiao Qiao in the distance stopped his chopsticks for a moment.

There's something wrong.
