‘I must not underestimate this hospital patient. Although they have mental disorders, but I believe they are very intelligent.’ thought Rian while looking at the locked iron door from the outside.
Rian then tried to break into the window on this ground floor. But when going to do so, it turns out that all the windows on the ground floor have been fitted with iron bars. ‘Now I realize how William felt when he was sent here. This place is really like a prison!’
‘Now, what should I do? If I call the police, then this place will be closed. Though this mission requires me to survive in this building until 4 am.’ Rian then decided to return to the administrative counter.
When Rian returned, Rian saw one of the plastic bowls that had been inside sometimes, now in an inverted position under the counter. The liquid in the bowl was splattered to wet the floor under the counter. “Is that person worried I realized that this bowl contains poison?”
“Wait first .. if the person who flipped this bowl is the same person as the person who locked the door of the building, this means that there is another way to get inside this building! Or maybe this guy has a plot. I still lack evidence to do deduction.”
When Rian took the bowl upside down, Rian noticed that there was a small handwriting under the counter. To take a closer look, Rian crawled under the counter table. Before he could read the writing. Rian felt something was touching his head. He felt like a worm was trying to get inside his head.
‘What creature is this!?’ Reflex, Rian immediately closed his head. He could feel something touching his hand. Slowly, Rian looked up.
Deg Deg Deg
Rian's heart was racing. “Haah haah haah ..”
When Rian saw the thing that had touched his head, there was a thick long hair that had been affixed using insulation under the counter table. “Anjir! Just be surprised!”
Rian was able to breathe a sigh of relief after realizing that what touched him was not a supernatural being, but rather hair. However, the existence of this hair adds to the mystery that exists. “Is this the hair of the person locked in the cage?”
Suddenly, Noir who had been in Rian's shirt bag jumped out of his pocket. Then Noir climbed over the counter and hissed towards the stairs leading to the 2nd floor.
“Ksssshhh ..” The eyes of Noir continue to look at one place that is above the stairs.
With a knife in his hand, Rian came out from under the counter and shouted. “Who's there!?”
“Quick out! I know you're here, don't hide anymore!” Noir then climbed onto Rian's back. As if understanding Noir's intentions, Rian immediately ran up the stairs to the 2nd floor. But there's nobody there. “Cat senses in danger are strong enough. So I'm sure Noir sensed the existence of someone dangerous from here! But I still don't know, this guy's a human, or a supernatural being?”
Ryan went back to the administration. This time, he was examining the hair taped under the table. After Rian checked back, this long hair turned out to consist of several hairs tied together. “Hmm .. Based on the color, length, quality, and texture of each hair, it looks like these hairs are from different people. There are 4 types of hair. This hair comes from 4 different people. And this fourth person seems to be new.”
After that, Rian came back closer to the small writing that was below the counter. It says, I will avenge all that you have done for me
“Is this the writing of this former hospital patient? Or from the owner of the hair?” Because there was still a lack of evidence to make deductions, Rian decided to go to the 2nd floor. But before that, Rian sprinkled salt around the counter. Of course this was not to chase away ghosts, but to see if the people living in this building would return to the counter or not.
Just as Rian was about to set foot on the 2nd floor, suddenly Noir hissed and jumped towards the glass window. “Ksssshhh ..”
“Noir, what's up?” Rian then approached the window and looked out. But there is nothing strange outside.
“Meong!” noir said as he looked up at the window.
Rian turned his head to look up. Just above the window where Rian looked, there was someone peering at Rian from the 3rd floor window. When the person realized Rian had seen him from the bottom window, the person immediately pulled his head inside.
“That face .. although it looks crooked and uneven between its right and left sides, I'm sure it's a human!” Rian paused for a moment and focused. He was trying to find the man's footstep. But because of the distance, Rian could not hear the footsteps of the person.
As Rian walked further, Rian was quite surprised by the wider layout compared to the 1st floor. Rian then looked into one of the rooms, there was no more bed in one room. The facilities in the room were also complete. There are tables, chairs, reading lamps, AC and also television.
“Is this a VIP patient-only building? Room conditions on this floor are much better than rooms on the 1.” floor Rian took a long breath. “Haa~ this world is really unfair. Justice only exists for people who have money.”
Rian then sprinkled salt again around the stairs that were right next to the room he had been looking at just now. After that, Rian continued his search again. From the results of touring the 2nd floor, Rian saw that in this building there are various rooms. Starting from the quarantine, chess room, jacuzzi room, karaoke room, mini cinema, and a small hall.
“Anjir, what the hell is this hospital! What do karaoke rooms, jacuzzis and mini-cinema do? People with mental disorders may not enjoy all that! Except ...” Rian did not continue his remarks. But he knows what all these facilities are for. Only, he did not want to be arrested by the police because of the ITE Law.
Rian who was currently in front of a small hall, felt awkward with the decoration of the place. “It's weird ... All the windows are sealed and covered in thick black curtains. The decorations here are also dominated by black and white. There is no way this place is used to party with this kind of decoration.”
Rian walked even further into the hall. As Rian shone through the stage at the end of the hall, Rian saw a black-and-white photograph hanging from the stage wall. However, half of the photo had been cut off. From the remaining pieces, Rian could see that the one in the photo was a female nurse. The sister looks big. He also had a sullen expression on the photo.
“A large black and white photo, thick black curtains, and also hundreds of neatly arranged folding chairs. Isn't this like a mourning room? Why do psychiatric hospitals hold mourning events? Don't-don't ..”
Rian also remembered the words of Doctor Denis this morning. “This is a mourning event for the sisters killed by this hospital patient!”
