Chapter 214 Human Experiment (Please subscribe, please vote)
These weird vines seemed to only linger near the hospital courtyard. Once they got close to the interior of the hospital, they retreated as if they had encountered natural enemies, showing no signs of growth.
"Let's go, it's time to go to the hospital."
Lin Yi threw the vine fragments to the ground. It was indeed the area specially prompted by Samsara Paradise. As soon as he entered, he gave Lin Yi a disastrous blow.
Walking into the hospital, the dim corridor seems like a tunnel leading to an unknown world.
The ward doors on both sides were closed tightly. The paint on the doors was peeling off, and the traces of time were clearly visible.
This dilapidated scene revealed an inexplicable sense of gloom.
Occasionally, a gust of cold wind blows, and a certain door will suddenly make a "squeak" sound and then slowly open.
Some yellowed photos and medical charts hang on the walls of the hospital.
These photos and charts record the glory and bustle of this hospital in the past, but now they can only serve as witnesses of history, silently telling the past years.
But in this long-abandoned place, they add a bit of eeriness and weirdness.
The discarded medical equipment and damaged medical records scattered on the ground tell people about the various stories that have happened here.
These abandoned items, like fragments of history, are scattered in this dark corner, waiting for people to explore and interpret.
The three of them pushed open a ward door and walked in.
The scene in the ward was shocking. The bed was covered with thick dust, the sheets were yellowed, and there were still vague blood stains on the walls.
There are some discarded syringes and pill bottles scattered in the corner.
The entire hospital was enveloped in a depressing and eerie atmosphere.
"It's really strange. The technological level of this hospital feels so much more advanced than that of the small town outside."
Lin Yi glanced at the internal structure of the hospital, with a trace of confusion on his face. The technological level inside the hospital had obviously reached modern technology.
With just one glance, Lin Yi noticed many computers, incandescent lamps and other advanced equipment that relied on electricity, which were rarely seen in small towns.
In ordinary houses in small towns, people still use candles for lighting, and slightly wealthier families only use gas lights.
The huge disparity in technological levels between the hospital and the town gave Lin Yi a strong sense of dislocation and fragmentation, as if he had transcended several eras and was in a strange world where time and space intersected.
Lin Yi walked along the corridor. Wherever he looked, mottled blood stains on the ground were faintly visible, as if telling the story of the tragedy of the past.
"The courtyard outside is clean and devoid of anything, but the inside is so messy. It seems like there is something that makes the vines not dare to come near here."
Zuolun squatted down and gently touched the blood on the ground. After years of precipitation, this blood has long dried up and solidified.
Under the touch of his fingers, the dried blood instantly disintegrated into powder and dispersed in the air.
Lin Yi pushed open the door of the nurse's station with some caution.
The moment the door opened, the smell of old paper rushed towards me, mixed with the weight of years and dusty memories.
His eyes wandered around the messy nurse's station, and finally settled on the mountain of medical records.
These medical records record past patient information, but now they have become clues to explore the past.
Lin Yi slowly approached the pile of medical records, picked up a few and looked at them carefully.
He noticed that the handwriting on many medical records had become blurry, as if they had been soaked in water, and it seemed that the ruthless traces of time had gradually eroded these precious written records.
He tried to decipher the writing, but found that it was not in any language he was familiar with.
"Let me take a look. These words seem to be some kind of font that is popular in the void."
The people's teacher came forward and began to read the medical records carefully. The name and logo of the hospital are printed on the top of the medical record sheet, and below is the patient's basic information column, including name, age, gender, hospitalization number, etc.
The middle part is mainly medical records, which record the patient's condition and treatment process in clear and professional medical terms.
The medical record briefly recorded the patient's self-reported symptoms, such as "persistent headache, accompanied by intermittent nausea and vomiting."
Next is a history of the present illness, detailing the onset, progression, and possible triggers of symptoms.
In the physical examination column, the patient's vital signs are listed on the medical record, including data such as body temperature, pulse, respiration and blood pressure, as well as a detailed description of the patient's appearance, cardiopulmonary auscultation, abdominal palpation and other examination results.
The people's teacher noticed that after these regular medical records, a special record appeared on the medical record, titled "Experimental Record."
This section is more technical and detailed than the others, describing a complex series of medical experiments and tests, including blood analysis, imaging studies, and recording of responses to a drug or treatment.
For example, one record reads: "The patient was treated with the new drug XX and developed mild fever and increased heart rate within 30 minutes after the injection, and then the symptoms gradually eased."
Another record details the patient's performance and results from a certain imaging test.
At the end of the medical record, the name "Dr. Kate" is clearly printed on the signature line, next to the specific signature date.
He informed Lin Yi and Zuo Lun of the information he learned in detail, giving them a clearer understanding of what happened in the hospital.
"That is to say, this hospital has done immoral things like human experiments before, right?"
Revolver said with a frown as he lit a cigarette in an attempt to dispel the musty smell in the room.
Although the hospital building has a certain moisture-proof function, it has not been taken care of for a long time, and moss and other plants have already taken over the entire house.
"Absolutely. I suspect that the changes in Terror Island are closely related to this hospital."
The people's teacher continued to look through several other medical records and found that although the symptoms on each medical record were different, there were notes about experiments in the end.
The only difference is the medicine used.
These details further confirmed his conjecture that the changes in Terror Island may be inextricably linked to the secret experiments of this hospital.
"Could it be that those humanoid reptiles are related to the hospital's experiments?" Lin Yi's thoughts returned to the lizard-like humanoid reptiles he encountered in the village.
If you think about it carefully, if you ignore the scales on their bodies, the difference between those monsters and ordinary people is actually not that big.
"It's very possible," Revolver took a last drag of his cigarette, then stamped it out on the ground, "Okay, let's move on."
Pushing open the door, a cold evil wind suddenly hit, blowing the collars of the three people.
The dark corridor opened its mouth like a huge monster, quietly waiting for them to fall into the trap.
Lin Yi took out a headlamp and placed it on his head. Zuolun and the People's Teacher did not expect that Lin Yi would bring such a device when he came in.
"Why, didn't you bring any?"
Seeing that neither Zuolun nor the People's Teacher made any move, Lin Yi was stunned for a moment.
"Aren't you talking nonsense? Who can compare with you? My backpack is just an ordinary backpack. Apart from bullets and food, there is nowhere to put other things." Zuo Lun glanced helplessly at Lin Yi's treasure chest-like backpack. Space backpack, secretly regretting not preparing one.
"Come on, let's give each of you one." Lin Yi generously took out two headlamps from his backpack and handed them to the revolver and the people's teacher respectively.
At the same time, he also took out three gas masks, "In a place like a hospital, it's always good to be more prepared, so you're prepared."
Lin Yi casually opened the doors of several rooms, which were filled with instruments that had been used for medical treatment.
The interior of these rooms seemed to have been ravaged by some kind of monster, and the walls were covered with sharp claw marks, like marks left by beasts of prey.
The furniture in the room was not spared, being torn into pieces and scattered on the floor.
