The long-lost passion returned to my heart again.
When I got back to bed, I thought about it, I still need to get to the bottom of this matter.
Thinking of this, I pressed my hand to the red bell beside the bed, and the beeping alarm kept ringing.
Within a few minutes, Xiaomei in a white coat appeared in front of me.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing her panting, I felt a little guilty: "Sorry, I woke you up in the middle of the night."
"It's okay, it's okay, what happened?"
I moved forward and asked in a low voice: "There was a person in the corridor who fell ill just now and was dragged away by several doctors. In this case, where would they put the person?"
"High-risk intensive care unit, what's wrong?"
I hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Does your hospital have any legends about being haunted?"
In fact, whether in hospitals or schools, there will be some rumors about strange gods and chaotic powers, which don't sound like much.
But it was this ordinary sentence that shocked Xiaomei: "Don't talk nonsense."
"Ever since I was an intern at the hospital, I heard from the intern teacher that I don't believe rumors and I can't spread them."
I asked suspiciously: "What else can't be said?"
"No, just this one."
It's right not to believe rumors. Those baseless things can easily cause unexpected harm.
One should indeed be cautious about those hearsay reports.
However, the question is, a person who has just entered the hospital for internship should be instructed on medical skills. Why is he instructed on this matter?
I hesitated for a moment: "I don't want to implicate you too much. Please tell me where the intensive care unit is."
"What are you going to do?"
I scratched the back of my head, not knowing how to explain it.
"Perhaps there is indeed something wrong with your hospital, but I have no evidence right now, so I can only call it speculation."
"Thank you for helping me before. From now on, don't participate anymore."
My heartfelt words only resulted in three words: "Why?"
"There's no reason." I was stunned when she asked, "I can't let you lose your job, right?"
"You're looking for the truth, right?"
I chuckled and said, "That's too lofty. I just bumped into him and wanted to take a look."
"Does this matter have anything to do with you?"
Xiaomei asked the question very calmly, which made me a little confused: "There is no benefit, I..."
"Then count me in."
In the dark night, I can still see the determined light in her eyes.
"You are a patient."
Xiaomei immediately corrected her: "No, you are a misunderstood patient. You are willing to participate. As a staff member, I have no reason to back down."
I have always heard people say that young people should look spotless and enthusiastic.
Xiaomei's appearance confirmed the existence of this matter.
"Everyone has the right to find the truth, right?"
Seeing my silence, she asked again.
I took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay, that's it."
Xiaomei suddenly laughed: "You don't know how to use those equipment and medicines, I can help!"
This decision made us completely comrades-in-arms.
Just when we were about to leave, a new problem appeared in front of us.
No matter how we walked, we couldn't escape the surveillance above our heads.
According to Xiaomei, there is a dedicated person monitoring the other end of the monitoring line, and their posts change every two hours.
The windows of the ward were also welded shut, so it was basically impossible to walk upstairs from this position in a swagger.
I thought about it and asked, "Where is the control room?"
Xiaomei pointed her finger upstairs: "Above the ward."
"When is the next changing of the guard?"
She looked at her watch and then at me: "It should be the changing of the guard."
This means that if I miss it, I have to wait two hours.
In this situation, something might change if it takes just one more second. I can't afford to wait for two hours.
This ward is at the end of the corridor, about 50 meters away from the corridor exit.
At an adult's pace, 50 meters takes at least one minute.
There's enough time!
"I'll run out first and meet in the bathroom upstairs!"
