Detective Horror

Chapter 42 - The Hospital of the Angker

Pramuja and Lestari look anxiously waiting in front of the operating room of a hospital.

Puspa is being operated on and Zulfikar will be operated on afterwards. The hospital they went to had only one operating room.

Puspa's body was dragged out of the operating room.

"How, Doc?" tanya Lestari was worried.

"We took out the bullet and stitched up the wound. Fortunately, the bullet slipped from his heart. Even more fortunate, the bullet did not hit any other vital areas. The patient's condition is very stable, just waiting for him to be conscious." The doctor gave an explanation.

The doctor went back in to operate on Zulfikar.

"You just go with Puspa. When he wakes up, you should be by his side. Let me wait for Zulfikar myself" said the servant.

Lestari simply nodded and went to follow the nurses pushing the bed that brought Lestari to the inpatient room.

After a few hours, Zulfikar has also been operated. The steward follows the nurses who take Zulfikar's body to the inpatient room. Zulfikar is placed in a room adjacent to the Puspa. The steward faithfully waited until Zulfikar came to his senses from the drugging drug.

"Where am I?" zulfikar asked weakly as he slowly gained his consciousness.

"You're in the hospital room, Zul! You had the operation. Your wound is severe enough to cause you to lose a lot of blood. You have to rest a lot. I'll call both of your parents" Zulfikar said.

"No, Pram! Don't tell my parents. I don't want them to worry" pinta Zulfikar.

"Alright if that's what you want. But I suggest you tell them when you get home from the hospital later. It's not good to hide something like this from your parents." Pramuja.

"Puspa ... Where is Puspa?" ask Zulfikar.

"He's in the next room. He also had surgery. I'm so sorry to tell you that he suffered a gunshot wound for protecting me" said the steward.

"What do you mean?" zulfikar asked in disbelief.

"As we pressed on, there was a mysterious group of ninja-clad people who came and massacred the assassins. They were also about to kill me, but Puspa instead made his body as a shield so that he was the one shot by one of the ninja who put a gun." The flight attendant recounted the incident he had experienced.

"Thank God he still has a conscience" murmured Zulfikar.

"Why are you saying that?" ask the servant who heard the murmur of Zulfikar.

"Come, Pram. I feel like she's no ordinary girl. It seems like he is hiding something," Zulfikar revealed his suspicions.

"Honestly, I also felt that he had something to do with that group of ninja dresses. And apparently, they're not good people." The servant expressed his opinion.

"Either what was hidden by Puspa. But one thing I believe in, he's not gonna do anything bad to us." Zulfikar said with confidence.

"Why do you think that?" The steward smiled, it seemed like he had another opinion.

"Because he was willing to sacrifice his life to protect you, Pram! You owe him." Zulfikar reminds the king.

"Okay, I admit that. Never mind, don't think of anything. Rest up!"

The clock on the wall shows at 2 a.m. The steward pulled out a blanket to cover Zulfikar's body, then went out to get some fresh air.

He peeked into the room where Puspa was being treated. Lestari was asleep in a chair with half her body resting on the bed.

The steward came in and fixed the Puspa blanket. He also covered Lestari's body with his jacket.

The steward turns to the bed next to the Puspa bed. The bed was separated by a long curtain. The steward opened the curtains carefully. Viola was also lying on the bed. He did have a torn wound due to broken window glass. Although not too severe, he still insisted to be admitted to the hospital.

The steward also fixed the Viola blanket. His assistant slept on the floor with a mat that was already there. Maybe it was the former family of the previous patient that was left behind.

In the corner of the room, there was a ghost that followed Viola while on the island standing while looking at Viola who was asleep.

The steward walked down the deserted hospital corridor. It looks like the hospital is very old. The haunted atmosphere instantly enveloped the Priestuja. He felt the presence of other creatures around him.

Out of nowhere he came from, there was a nurse who was already standing behind the steward. His face was pale and his clothes were shabby. He was limping so the flight attendant realized there was someone following him behind.

"Who are you?" ask the attendant as he turns around to find out who is following him.

"Chihinsi ...." The nurse laughed creepily.

"Go back to your nature! Your place is not here!" The steward drove the nurse's ghost away.

Suddenly the ghostly face became sad.

"To-help me ..." The nurse's ghost said softly.

"What's wrong with you?" ask the curious flight attendant.

"I-I was killed .." replied the nurse's ghost stammeringly.

"Who killed you?" ask the steward again.

The ghost saw a figure walking towards the flight attendant. He's gone immediately.

The flight attendant was frowning in looking for the existence of ghosts earlier.

"What's up, Mom? Are you looking for something?"

The human figure that the ghost had seen earlier greeted the flight attendant.

"Not looking for anything. I was just walking around" said the man.

"It's past midnight, Mom. Better go back to the room. Have you never heard the rumors about this hospital?" ask the beautiful woman dressed as a doctor.

"What's up, Doc?" The steward asked back.

"This hospital is very old. At night, it is said that often seen the appearance of subtle creatures. The hospital is often also referred to by the public as a haunted hospital" explained the Doctor.

"Then, why is the Doctor wandering around here? Is the doctor not afraid?" search Pramuja.

"Hahaha .. I work here and today got my turn as a watch doctor. I'm used to this hospital environment." The doctor smiled at the man.

"Well then, I'll go back to the room." The steward intended to leave.

"Wait on! My name is Indah Hartati, commonly called, Doctor Beautiful. What's Mas' name?" ask the Beautiful Doctor.

"Handmaid," answered the steward briefly.

"Who's sick?" ask the Beautiful Doctor.

"My friends" replied the steward.

"Oh, this is Mas from the ghost island huh?" Doctor Indah did know that there are survivors of the massacre on the ghost island, being treated at the hospital.

"Yes." Yeah." The attendant replied briefly.

He immediately said goodbye to the Beautiful Doctor. For some reason, he felt very uncomfortable dealing with the beautiful doctor. It was as if a dark aura was enveloping him.
