Hospital No. 444

Generally speaking, there are two types of curses.

One type is items that are inherently cursed by ghosts, such as wooden combs, high heels, mirrors, red clothes that often appear in ghost stories... Such items may be contaminated by the curse once ordinary people come into contact with them, which is very dangerous.

The second type is created by the hospital's curse department, which removes the curse through surgery, or seals and imprisons the ghost's curse.

This is just like a vaccine. The vaccine itself is made by inactivating the virus. However, any curse created by the Curse Department carries the risk of the curse reviving. Even so, the curse is currently known...the only thing that humans can resist the curse of evil spirits.

You mean it would be better to send it to the Curses Department for a look?

My personal suggestion is... don't do it yet. Doctors in the Curse Department, unlike us, do not need to perform clinical treatment, which means there is no death quota for patients.

I do not quite understand……

Ark simply got straight to the point: You have been in the hospital for too short a time and do not understand the style of the spell doctors. They only consider making powerful spells and do not consider the patient's life or death. If you kill the patient, you can make a powerful spell. If so, they will not hesitate to practice it. In the past, there have been examples of them forcibly taking patients away from clinical departments for human experiments.”

What?

Is this okay?

Don't the people in the clinical department care about it? Does the Curses Department have this power?

Fangzhou sighed.

Do you think...who dares to offend a doctor from the Curses Department?

Dai Lin was stunned for a moment.

yes!

The only capital the supernatural doctor has to fight against the evil spirits is the curse!

The curse is related to the life and death of every supernatural doctor. It's okay now, but as time goes by... the risk of the curse reviving in our bodies will become higher and higher, and sooner or later we will need to go to the curse department for treatment. Like. I am one of the very few people who can still be the deputy director despite having evil spirits in his body.

The more terrifying the evil spirit, the harder it is to make a stable spell. Therefore, evil spirit spells are extremely rare, and the total number of evil spirit surgeons is only in the single digits.

This painting contains a very terrible curse... At the same time, it is as if it was made by the Cursed Object Department, and it is not dangerous. I have never seen such a cursed object.

So next, Dai Lin told Fang Zhou everything about Dai Ming's condition.

Cousin, he...he drew it?

Ark was obviously quite surprised.

Yes. He painted it by himself, using ordinary drawing paper, brushes, and paints.

Did the evil spirit draw these pictures with the help of his hand?

After thinking for a while, Fang Zhou suddenly said: Dai Lin, tell me, which one is your cousin's latest painting?

yes……

No, wait a minute, let me guess first. Is it the one where the female ghost opens her hands as if she is about to pounce?

Yes! Dai Lin nodded, You are right!

Fang Zhou gritted his teeth and said, It's true! Listen, Dai Lin... compared with the paintings when he was a child, the curse contained in the latest paintings is obviously stronger!

This is normal. Evil spirits will naturally become stronger over time.

No...that's not the case. Fang Zhou pointed out one point: You said that your cousin never drew this female ghost between the age of ten and the painting a few days ago, right?

That's right, Dai Ming said so.

If it is as time goes by, the increase in the power of the curse will not be significant enough. In other words... this is not the strengthening of evil spirits under normal circumstances.

Dai Lin suddenly understood.

So...actually through the process of painting, the curse of the evil spirit will become stronger and stronger?

It's very possible. And according to what you said, I suspect... Dai Ming and Miss Pan are not the only patients!

Dai Lin looked at Dai Ming's paintings and began to have some speculations in his heart.

Is that ghost going to use these paintings to become a more powerful evil spirit?

It depends on how many people...are painting such paintings and how many of them are produced.

Dai Lin suddenly became worried.

Early the next morning.

New Year's Day 2022 is here.

Hospital No. 444 usually has holidays, but it won't be closed on New Year's Day.

Pan Yizhen came to the Lingshe Department of the hospital.

She was shocked when Dai Ming came over wearing a hospital gown and accompanied by Dai Lin.

Never would he have thought that Dai Ming would have a cousin who was a doctor at Hospital No. 444?

Miss Pan, you'd better be hospitalized for observation now. Dai Lin advised, After all, your situation may be very dangerous.

I don't want to be hospitalized here. Pan Yizhen's character is very stubborn: We are not sure whether that ghost will come to harm us, but the spiritual healing point is definitely an overdraft for the future, and it may cause a loss of life.

Well, you come to the outpatient clinic later, and I'll give you a general check-up first.

After that, Dai Ming and Pan Yizhen were sent to the CT room respectively.

Dai Lin could only shamelessly ask Director Fan to help him take a good look at the CT scan reports of his cousin and Pan Yizhen.

Director Fan, please excuse me.

Okay, I'll contact you as soon as there are results.

After all, Dai Lin is currently considered a popular figure in front of Yin Wuque, and his future is limitless. Although he is still a resident doctor, the director of the department is willing to sell him some face.

But my opinion is that it shouldn't be a big problem. Director Fan thought for a while and said, According to the ward rounds records of his hospitalization and the nurse's inspection records, there is no evil spirit chasing him.

So... the prognosis is pretty optimistic?

If there is nothing wrong with the imaging report. There are hundreds of CT reports. Let me speed up and tell you before tonight, Doctor Dai.

That's great.

It's okay. By the way, help me congratulate Director Xie.

okay, I get it.

Xie Chengjun was usually so talkative, but when Dai Lin asked him what Dai Ming's condition was, he remained silent.

Combined with Fang Zhou's words, Dai Lin was very worried. If the evil spirit is really using the power of the painting to become more powerful, then it will be difficult to control.

Then, Dai Lin discovered that...he was still thinking about that female ghost.

The various terrifying images of the female ghost became clearer and clearer in his mind, and Dai Lin also had an idea pop up from time to time.

Can I... draw her?

As soon as this idea came up, Dai Lin was startled, and then he immediately dismissed it.

Afterwards, Dai Lin returned to the clinic.

Today, his first patient is Pan Yizhen.

Last night, Dai Lin called Pan Yizhen and asked her to attend the outpatient clinic this morning. Since many of the attending doctors have gone to Malaysia to take exams at this stage, Dai Lin can treat her as long as she passes for a certain period of time.

Pan Yizhen pushed open the door of the clinic and saw Dai Lin, and immediately realized that he and Dai Ming looked a bit similar in facial features.

Doctor Dai, Pan Yizhen asked anxiously, I talked with Dai Ming, but I don't quite understand what he said. What kind of spell or something... can our situation be cured?

What Dai Lin fears most is her problem.

There's really no way to say at this stage.

However, Dai Lin still wanted to have a good talk with Pan Yizhen, maybe he could get some important clues from her to save his cousin Dai Ming.

I hope you will tell me the situation in detail again. It's okay. Our hospital does not have as large an outpatient volume as ordinary public tertiary hospitals. You can talk slowly.

After all, ghost encounters are relatively rare, otherwise the mainstream of human society would not still deny the existence of ghosts for thousands of years.

I, I know...

Pan Yizhen began to continue describing her experience to Dai Lin. At the same time, Dai Lin picked up the stethoscope and auscultated Pan Yizhen, while also scanning her soul with the devil's eyes.

It's not much different from what Dai Lin heard from Dai Ming.

So...did you draw yesterday?

No.

Stop drawing now, give me all the drawings you have. I will find a way... to help you solve this curse!
