Chapter 176 176.Reemployment

"Oh, it's really hard for children to study nowadays. We used to go to bed at nine o'clock in the evening, but now we just have self-study at nine o'clock."

Nurse Cao said with emotion.

"Yes, I see that a college student moved in on the third floor today. He seemed to have broken his leg because of his bravery. He is quite pitiful."

Next to Nurse Cao, Nurse Wang also responded.

At this point, the patients are usually resting, and they are on duty. As long as no one rings the summons bell, they will be fine, as long as they stay up late, so they chat here and pass the time.

This is how a lot of hospital gossip spreads in the nurses' station.

Nurse Cao is relatively young and has just graduated. Nurse Wang is already in her forties and her children are in high school.

Qiao Mu came over with an unopened flashlight. The two nurses saw him and were a little confused.

"I'm helping Lao Liu patrol."

Qiao Mu felt confident.

The nurse who came to the night shift after ten o'clock had not seen Qiao Mu. She believed him when she saw that he did have the security guy in his hand.

"Sisters, did you see the baby crawling on the ground today?"

he asked.

"Baby crawling on the floor? Are you kidding me?"

Nurse Cao didn't understand what Qiao Mu meant.

"Did you see it?"

On the side, Nurse Wang had a strange expression and asked mysteriously.

"What would happen if I saw this?"

Qiao Mu was curious and walked into the nurse's station, got a chair and sat down.

"Legend, well, I also heard it from an old nurse before. She said that sometimes at night, a group of babies would be seen crawling across the hall. In the middle of the night, the hall on the first floor would be filled with people missing arms and legs. She said that if we see Don't pay attention to this, just pretend you didn't see it."

Nurse Wang said vividly.

"Then what would happen if you pretend you didn't see it?"

Qiao Mu asked again.

"Well, I don't know about that, because usually when it comes to this, people must just pretend they haven't seen it. Who would follow them out of boredom?"

Nurse Wang was speechless. It was all Qiao Mu's fault. The atmosphere of the ghost story was gone.

"Oh, you guys sit down first, I'll continue patrolling."

Qiao Mu glanced at the hall, stood up and walked over.

There are also a few lights on here, not as bright as during the day, but still pretty bright.

The TV in the lobby was turned off for some reason. There was a TV series playing inside. Qiao Mu looked at it and saw that it seemed to be an old show from several years ago. The picture quality was also very retro, with the quality of a picture tube color TV.

He turned around and found that the hall was full of people.

Those people were wearing all kinds of clothes, including cotton-padded clothes of a certain age and modern skirts and suits. These people either had bandages and plasters on their hands and feet, or they were missing limbs. Some of their faces were covered in blood, and some were even Some faces were blue and black.

Everyone is watching TV quietly.

Sizzling——

The TV suddenly flashed with snowflakes, and then the TV program disappeared, replaced by the kind of TV station debugging screen that Qiao Mu had only seen when he was a child.

Some of those people turned to look at Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu did not respond, but continued to move forward.

Because he saw several babies lying on the ground wearing only diapers, heading deeper into the corridor.

There were faint, bloody hand and footprints left behind.

Qiao Mu followed and quickly caught up with the babies, standing nearby and observing them carefully.

Each of these babies was shriveled and thin, with no color at all, as if they had been abandoned for a long time.

However, they didn't notice Qiao Mu's presence and just climbed forward step by step.

Qiao Mu saw that there was the nurse's station in front of her.

He turned around and came back.

At the nurse's station, Nurse Cao and Nurse Wang were still chatting, and the babies seemed ready to crawl in.

Qiao Mu took the first two steps and said hello to the two nurses.

He saw that there was another nurse between the two of them. This nurse was older and had gray hair.

"This is?"

Qiao Mu questioned.

"Hey, it's not because of lack of manpower recently. I had already retired and was hired back to help these young people a little bit."

The old nurse replied.

"oh."

Qiao Mu responded. He watched the babies gradually crawl into the nurse's station and sit in rows, very well-behaved.

"These children are very well-behaved. They hide usually because they are worried about scaring people, so I let them come out at night to move around."

The old nurse said again.

"Oh, you're quite nice then."

Qiao Mu responded.

At this time, Nurse Cao looked at Qiao Mu with a strange expression.

"who are you talking to?"

She felt a chill running down her spine. After all, Qiao Mu was speaking to the air with a serious expression, not like he was joking.

"There is a retired nurse here."

Qiao Mu told the truth.

"!!!"

The hair on the hair of the two serious nurses stood up, but they did not dare to act rashly. In their eyes, Qiao Mu was talking to the air after she came over, and there were no nurses at all.

"Don't be nervous, she won't hurt you."

Qiao Mu reassured.

It's not because of anything else, but because these two nurses stayed with the old nurse for so long without any incident, which shows that the depth of these two people is not up to standard at all. As long as they can't see it, the abnormality will not have any impact on them. .

"In what year did you retire?"

Qiao Mu turned to ask the old nurse.

"Just two years ago, I was lying in the ward over there."

The old nurse pointed to the ward upstairs.

Qiao Mu thought for a while and asked the elderly nurse Wang.

"Have you ever had any nurses here who were hospitalized before?"

Nurse Wang trembled and tried to remember, and finally got the answer.

"In other words, a few years ago, a retired nurse from our hospital was admitted to our hospital for illness, but she still couldn't hold on after being hospitalized for a period of time."

It seems that this old nurse is the one who died here before.

Qiao Mu had heard from Zhou Mingke before that there were no real ghosts in this world, which were the souls left behind by the dead.

Those beings that would be considered ghosts are essentially projections of human consciousness in abnormalities.

Just like the dream of the giant beast in the sky.

Therefore, for humans without depth, ghosts do not exist, and they cannot see those contaminated products at all.

For people like Qiao Mu, the existence of ghosts only means that there is an abnormality nearby, and this abnormality may have a greater impact.

Finding the "ghost" is only the first step. The key is to understand the scope of the abnormality and the rules.

"Young man, don't scare us."

Nurse Wang said nervously.

"It's okay, they won't hurt you."

Qiao Mu patted her shoulder.

I have to say, it makes people feel even more scared.

Qiao Mu looked at the old nurse again.

"Besides you, these babies, and the patients in the hall, are there any other patients in this hospital who are similar to you?"

He felt that the old nurse was kind-hearted and should be able to provide some clues.

thump--

But before the old nurse could answer, Qiao Mu heard a crash from next door.

The young nurse Cao was so frightened that she fainted.
