The archive room is in the middle corridor, which should be connected to the back window facing the hospital boiler room.
The file management doctor quickly found out a cardboard box where there was white. If something was opened, the top of the box was a diary, but this was obviously a diary. There was not a word on it. It should have been very new at first, because it was too long. The pages were a little yellow. Lin Xueyan took the diary and fiddled with it, emitting a faint bitter smell. This smell stimulated her nasal mucosa and she was troubled by inexplicable emotions.
The dean took out the case of Bai Re, and said, "Bai Re, a patient, called from the school and asked us to pick her up. At that time, I received her. She was very quiet, not as crazy as other patients, but as shy as a normal person. When everyone thought that her condition was not serious, she suddenly shocked us. That night, she cut her wrist and dipped it in the blood ward wall to draw pictures. It was a terrible scene. When the doctor on duty visited the room, she found the blood paintings on the wall and she had already lost a lot of blood."
"Is the doctor on duty that night still there?" Long Xiaofei immediately asked
"At that time, the doctor was not in our hospital. Nowadays, people’s living standards are high and they also attach importance to mental health. Provincial Medical University once set up a short course for mental illness. At the end of the semester, students can practice in our hospital. That’s how the intern came to our hospital. He was on duty with another doctor that night."
"Do you know where the intern is now?" Long Xiaofei continued to ask
The dean frowned. "The interns are all appointed by the school. We don’t know where they all come from, but we know his name is Ding Chenyang."
"Ah?" Lin Xueyan stared at Dean, and Dean also looked at her inexplicably. Long Xiaofei gently nodded. Of course, Dean didn’t know Lin Xueyan’s cousin’s name was also called Ding Chenyang.
Long Xiaofei coughed. Lin Xueyan and the dean returned to normal at the same time. They looked at him together. Long Xiaofei then asked, "How will Bai be discharged later?"
"Although Bai Re was very ill, she recovered quickly. After a year of treatment here, she became normal. Her relatives took her away," the dean continued to answer.
"Then what relatives took her away?" Lin Xueyan and Long Xiaofei all know that if Bai is an orphan, he has no relatives.
"Her brother came to see her every week when he was ill."
"Ha ha" Long Xiaofei smiled "Dean, you are really dedicated. It’s been five years, and you remember these things so clearly."
The dean smiled and shook his head. "This patient is the most successful one in our treatment here. We pay great attention to her. Later, she called her brother three times to understand her later situation. She didn’t relapse. I remember that his brother was a photographer. Like you, he was from Yining City. I heard about a newspaper worker."
Long Xiaofei said to the dean, "You know her brother quite well."
"Well, because I asked his brother something at that time, and he said that his surname was Zhao. I found it strange that the surnames of brothers and sisters were different. He explained that his sister was given a different surname because of her adoption. I was deeply impressed by this matter."
Lin Xueyan suddenly felt that something was strange. The dean’s description of this brother reminded her of Zhao Yuxiu’s same surname, the same photography, the same newspaper worker and even living in the city. Isn’t it a bit coincidental?
Dean looked at Long Xiaofei and pointed to a copier next to him and said, "I have a meeting here and I can’t accompany you. There is a copier here. You can copy the files and take them back to see them." Dean shouted a name and a young girl should run in.
"You help these two guests make a copy of this file and then help me arrange one or two residences." The dean nodded to the two with some gratitude.
"Don’t bother, please go to the meeting. We will hurry back after copying the materials. Thank you for your help." Long Xiaofei hurriedly said to the dean.
Lin Xueyan, who walked out of the gate of the mental hospital in the western suburbs, kept her head down and thought about what Long Xiaofei said to her. She didn’t catch it at all.
"Xueyan, what’s wrong with you?" Long Xiaofei touched Lin Xueyan’s arm.
"I always feel …" Lin Xueyan shook her head and stared at Long Xiaofei for a while. "Long Xiaofei I think I have been here before."
Long Xiaofei didn’t seem to feel anything wrong with this sentence. He patted Lin Xueyan on the shoulder. "Relax, even if you really lived here, it’s no big deal."
Looking at Long Xiaofei’s indifferent expression, Lin Xueyan seems to be white. Is Long Xiaofei bringing Lin Xueyan to the provincial capital for a purpose? Although he didn’t say anything to himself, in fact, he led Lin Xueyan to find his memory. First, he went to the university campus forgotten by Lin Xueyan, and then he came to this mental hospital, which made Lin Xueyan afraid and familiar. Thought of this, Lin Xueyan asked some unhappily, "Long Xiaofei, what on earth are you not telling me?" I think you must know something about my past, but you know this, but I don’t. "At this time, Lin Xueyan had some resentment against Long Xiaofei, and she felt that Long Xiaofei teased her.
Long Xiaofei looked at Lin Xueyan with a strange look, as if he suddenly made up his mind and said to her in a low voice, "Do you remember when I first heard the name Bai Re from your mouth?"
Lin Xueyan thought for a moment, "It should be that day when you and Bai Re came to my house, I stayed you for dinner, and then we talked very late, and I stayed you and Bai Re for the night. Bai Re and I lived in my bedroom, and you and Yu Xiu lived in his room, right?"
Long Xiaofei looked at her. "Don’t be afraid when you listen to me."
Lin Xueyan looked at Long Xiaofei inexplicably. "Why should I be afraid?"
Long Xiaofei swallowed hard and then said slowly, "You opened the door and decided that Bai Re and I were outside, but Xueyan, I was climbing the stairs alone and ringing the doorbell, and the root you called Bai Re didn’t appear."
"How is that possible?" Lin Xueyan was too surprised to believe her eyes were fixed on Long Xiaofei.
"I have never seen that person you called Bai Re."
"But we had dinner together. You saw Bai Ruo sleepwalking with me early. Don’t you remember?" Lin Xueyan trembled a little.
"You came up with this all by yourself. When you were eating, you put an extra pair of chopsticks and kept talking to the gas around you. I was shocked. If Yu Xiu hadn’t told me that you would be paranoid sometimes when you were busy in the kitchen, he also told me to act with him for fear that you would know what would happen to these weird guilds. I really didn’t know what to do at that time." Long Xiaofei’s expression was serious and didn’t look like a joke at all. Lin Xueyan suddenly remembered that Long Xiaofei’s expression was really unnatural at that time
"What’s more, you woke me up early the next morning and followed you to the building to say that white is dangerous. At that time, I did say the word sleepwalking, but I didn’t mean white. If I meant you, Yuxiu kept winking at me and wouldn’t let me put it bluntly."
"You lied to me. I don’t believe you at all." Lin Xueyan sat there shaking with sweat in her hands.
"I really didn’t lie to you. I asked Yu Xiu when you first started drinking. When he told me that you came back in a hurry that night, he pointed to the side and introduced Bai Re Yu Xiu to Yu Xiu. He was afraid of hurting you. He also told me that you and the imaginary Bai Re had been followed, so I went to the bar and chatted with the bartender for a long time. He finally recalled you. He said that you were sitting there alone drinking coffee that day and didn’t leave until midnight when you paid.
"You mean that the non-mainstream person you met that day didn’t follow me and Bai Re, but sent me more money?" Lin Xueyan shook his head, and his statement turned her whole world upside down. After careful consideration, it was really true that whenever I met Bai Re, I didn’t see her communicating with Xueyan’s outsiders. Now that I think about it, something was really wrong. Did Long Xiaofei say that everything was true? Lin Xueyan said lightly, "Is it true that if Bai is my imaginary person, there is no such person?"
Long Xiaofei took a look at Lin Xueyan and said, "Actually, she really did. When your childhood playmate was fourteen years old, she accidentally drowned, which means it is impossible for this person to be met by you in your twenties."
Lin Xueyan thoroughly said, "After all, do you mean that I am a psychopath and paranoid? You brought me to the provincial hospital to see a doctor because you found out that I was mentally ill and paranoid, right? "
Long Xiaofei patted Lin Xueyan on the shoulder. "Now I’m not in a hurry to come to a conclusion, okay? You have to know that I mean no harm. I care about you too much. I’m afraid … I’m afraid that you won’t remember me one day, okay? " Long Xiaofei’s eyes are tender. Lin Xueyan doesn’t want to say anything. She wants to find a place to rest first.
Chapter 52 Night visit mental hospital
Back to the hostel, Lin Xueyan pushed open her door without saying a word and went in. She planted her bed and quickly closed her eyes. Long Xiaofei glanced at the exhausted Lin Xueyan and silently went back to her room.
It seems that the roadside is full of lilacs in spring. Clusters of lilacs seem to turn the whole world into lavender. Lin Xueyan walks through lilacs and comes to a building in front of which all the windows are smaller than normal. The windows are firmly welded with iron fences. This place is familiar, but Lin Xueyan can’t remember when she came.
"Bai Re …" A low-pitched voice called Xueyan came to a window. Inside the window was a sick girl in stripes. A girl about her age took a look at Xueyan and said softly, "Bai Re, are you back?"
Lin Xueyan looked at the girl in front of her with some surprise and replied, "My name is Lin Xueyan. Who are you?"
The girl in the window seemed to be startled, clutching two iron bars with both hands and sticking her whole face against the window glass. Her eyes were fixed on Lin Xueyan, and her eyes were sharp like two sharp swords, which made Lin Xueyan feel cold all over. When she almost wanted to escape, the girl suddenly said, "Bai Re … why did you pretend to be me? I’m Lin Xueyan. "The girl giggled and echoed around. I don’t know what Lin Xueyan felt that this smile was adjusted to a disturbing band. With the smile, Lin Xueyan’s headache seemed to crack. Everything shook in front of her, and the girl’s face became clear and blurred. When Lin Xueyan held her head and almost fainted, she found that the girl’s face gradually changed and really became Lin Xueyan’s appearance …
"Wake up, Xueyan, wake up …" Lin Xueyan was awakened by Long Xiaofei. It turned out to be a dream, but this dream was too real. Lin Xueyan was still immersed in a headache feeling. "Xiao Fei felt that I had been here from the first moment I saw the hospital. Now I can tell you for sure that I must have lived there and it was a long time …"
Long Xiaofei nodded and said, "I found your name in the database of the Academy of Fine Arts. You were a second-year graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts. The original college life was four years, but you studied in the Academy of Fine Arts for five years. I found a reason. You dropped out of school for a whole year in your senior year and didn’t come back for classes. It seems that you didn’t stay in school for a long time before you got your diploma. The reason for dropping out of school was recorded, but I don’t know what that record was deleted. I finally found a teacher who taught you. He said that you seemed to have lived in the hospital for a year, and
"I used to be a psychopath?" A strong sense of inferiority almost knocked Lin Xueyan down. She shook her head and said, "Isn’t it once said that mental illness will make people who have been dead for more than ten years fantasize that their friends will have amnesia and sleepwalk …" Lin Xueyan fell into bed in frustration and grabbed a pillow to cover her head.
"Before I came here, I asked my colleagues in the provincial capital to investigate this hospital. They gave me a list of patients who were admitted to the hospital that year. I didn’t find your name, but I was surprised to see Bai Re. At that time, I suspected that you were admitted to the hospital under an alias. Now I can be sure that it was Bai Re’s name when you were here. I think the dean should be informed. He knows what you see. Your eyes are a little unusual. He doesn’t have any meetings. Moreover, he often blinks and turns his eyes when talking to the students, which makes me feel that he has something to hide from us.
"If you say that the dean intends to avoid us, can he let us go to the hospital again?"
"No, I said it was late, didn’t I?" Long Xiaofei said, leaving his mouth to one side and acting like a bad boy for the first time.
"You police can also be like thieves …" Before Lin Xueyan finished, Long Xiaofei gave her a hard stare and she swallowed her face back.
I don’t know when Long Xiaofei has stepped on the outside of the mental hospital. He took Lin Xueyan around the fence behind the hospital gate. There was a place where an iron railing was missing. He first demonstrated that he put his head sideways through the fence and leaned slightly. The whole person went in. Lin Xueyan followed suit and got into the hospital.
Long Xiaofei hesitated when he entered the hospital. Although he proposed to come here late, he didn’t know where to look up. At this moment, Lin Xueyan waved to him to follow him through the road in front of the gate, bypassing a lilac bush and soon coming to a window, which was exactly what Lin Xueyan was facing in her dream.
Lin Xueyan pointed to the window and said to Long Xiaofei, "If my intuition is correct, we should go into this room and have a look."
Long Xiaofei nodded and took Lin Xueyan’s hand and came to the front iron gate. He took something out of his pocket and fiddled with several doors, and it was easily opened at the entrance of the hospital. There were security wards and doctors and nurses on duty there, but this place was not visited at all, which really made people wonder what it was doing here.
"If you are a thief, you must be a great thief with high IQ." Just after saying this, Lin Xueyan’s head was suddenly and violently hurt by Long Xiaofei.
This room has two levels. One is a tin cabinet with neatly bound files. The second floor is much simpler. Near the innermost part, there is a wooden bed with white sheets. There is a small cabinet with two floors at the head of the bed.
Lin Xueyan walked to the front of the bed, probably because she was there. Memories suddenly poured out of her head. At this time, she didn’t think about anything. She opened the bed mattress and counted the third nail of the bed board. It was an activity. The bed board was taken with one hand and the tape was stuck to the bed board.
She took the bed board and stuck something on it. It was a blue plastic bag. Lin Xueyan didn’t have a horse to see what was inside. She looked back at Long Xiaofei, who was rummaging through the cabinets layer by layer, and took out a file cover. He stopped in his mouth and pulled out a thick one. After turning over a few pages, his eyes suddenly released excitement. He should have found what he wanted. Long Xiaofei put it in his backpack and put it back in place.
Long Xiaofei looked back at Lin Xueyan’s finger and pointed to a metal table with a shadow lamp in the middle of the room. It looks like an operating table. Does a mental hospital need to operate on patients? It’s really understandable
Lin Xueyan was about to talk to Long Xiaofei. Long Xiaofei suddenly put her finger on her lips and hissed. Lin Xueyan immediately shut up and listened carefully. It turned out that there was a noise in the stair-door.
Lin Xueyan turned pale when she got nervous. Long Xiaofei quickly put out her hand and then pulled Lin Xueyan to hide behind the curtain. They had just hidden the building, and the people had arrived. It seems that they didn’t find anything strange. The light was turned on. It turned out to be the dean and another doctor.
"Find something and destroy it quickly". The dean’s tone is an order.
The doctor nodded and rummaged through the cupboard to find out that Long Xiaofei had just put the file bag. The doctor didn’t find anything strange about the file bag. He waved it to the dean with the file bag and said, "This is it."
