Chapter 527: Virus Experiment?
"I indeed felt it too; it seemed to emerge from here. Let's check this door and see what the situation is inside."
While speaking, Anying took out the hairpin again, but when he went to push the door, he discovered that it wasn't locked at all.
If the room wasn't locked, then that could mean there wasn't anything particularly special inside; otherwise, it wouldn't be left completely open.
After pushing open the door, Ye Chen glanced inside and finally understood. To his surprise, this place was a morgue.
Rows of refrigerated cabinets were neatly arranged here.
"Damn, this really is a hospital, and there's even a morgue set up here."
As he spoke, Anying boldly walked forward, but at that moment, Ye Chen grabbed Anying and pulled him back.
"What are you doing?"
"Since we're already here, we might as well check to see if there's anyone inside, right?"
"Even if there is someone inside, what does it have to do with you? And how would that involve you in any way?"
"I'm not sure, but I just feel like there might be something weird going on here. Besides, if they were dead, wouldn't they just be sent to a crematorium for direct cremation? Why set up a morgue here?"
He raised this question, and at the time, Ye Chen felt that there was indeed some truth to it.
"Yeah, if they're treated here, they're all their own people; outsiders wouldn't be able to come here. So, when they die, their bodies would either be taken away by relatives or sent to the crematorium for cremation. There really is no need for them to stay here."
"Perhaps they are all from outside? So, they might need to wait for family members to come here for a handover. This could just be a temporary transit point."
"No, I need to see what's going on."
Saying this, Anying quietly walked over, then pulled open one of the refrigerated cabinets to find a body wrapped in cloth, completely shrouded within.
"Oh my god, you're really brave."
Ye Chen felt that touching these things would be truly terrifying, but it seemed Anying wasn't the least bit frightened.
Anying ignored him and quietly unzipped the wrapping cloth.
In the end, Anying just looked down briefly before frowning deeply.
"What's wrong, is the corpse's appearance that grisly?"
"No, come and take a look."
As she spoke, she gestured towards Ye Chen. He was curious, not understanding what there was to see in a dead body, but if Anying had pointed it out, he believed there must be something wrong.
Then, Ye Chen walked over and looked down, but as soon as he saw the person's face, he felt a storm brewing in his stomach.
Indeed, he saw clearly that the corpse's face was completely asymmetrical, and in one spot, there was a hole and even without a hole nearby, there was a protruding lump.
"What's going on here, what kind of disease did this person have?"
"I don't know, but this disease does seem very strange."
Afterward, he just nodded, zipped up the wrapping again, and then it was pushed away.
"What now? What else do you want to see?"
"It just feels like this is the first time I've ever seen such a dead body. I want to check the others."
While saying this, he opened the adjacent refrigerated cabinet. Anying opened it and took a look, finding a face similarly gruesome as the previous one; however, it was even more terrifying.
Thus, she proceeded to check all the cabinets in the row, finding every body intact but the facial area had the same condition.
The worst cases were those where the flesh on the face was almost completely gone, leaving only the white bones, which made one feel a chill to the bone.
"Don't you find it strange? All of these people have died in the same manner."
"Yes, it does seem a bit odd because normally deaths are due to illness or accidents, but to have this kind of condition on every face while the body is unharmed - we've seen about seven or eight such bodies on our way here."
"Right, there have been seven or eight already. Should we keep looking?"
"I don't think there's a need. If it's like this, I can almost guess that all these people must have died from some sort of virus."
"What? A virus? What kind of virus?"
"I'm not sure what virus, but it seems like this virus could cause some difficulty or problem with the facial nerves. I deeply suspect whether this hospital is conducting some kind of secret experiments?"
"Secret experiments? What kind of experiments?"
"Do you remember the Japanese devils' Unit 731 from the past?"
"Of course, that's an embarrassment. Didn't we beat them down back in the day, and they rolled back to their homeland in Dongyang?"
"That's right, but I feel that they were initially cultivating some kind of bacterium. I don't know their purpose, but it's as though they treated these people as living test subjects. The experiment failed, and they were all tossed here. No wonder we can now explain why there's a morgue in this place."
"Oh my god. What other secrets are buried in this hospital?"
"That, nobody dares to say, and no one knows."
"So, should we dig deeper into this matter?"
"Since we are already here, we definitely can't let all this go easily. So, after we go upstairs later, we'll take a good look and see what kind of secrets they have inside."
When Ye Chen came, he wasn't very interested.
But after seeing all this, he felt that these matters definitely weren't as simple as he had thought. So if that's the case, he had a duty to investigate this affair thoroughly.
