Hospital 444

To speak frankly, Mei Quzhen’s words were too straightforward and direct.

Therefore, it was also quite a dangerous thing to do, revealing one’s hand first.

But at the end of the day, Mei Quzhen was a doctor, not a negotiation expert, and with Fang Zhou supporting her, she simply decided to say everything that needed to be said.

Little did she know, An Xiunian was completely confused upon hearing something like "Seed Ghost" and had no idea what Mei Quzhen was talking about.

In such a situation, it was obviously impossible to think about cooperating with Mei Quzhen to obtain the so-called "cursed object." The very foundation for cooperation had vanished; how could they possibly continue talking?

For An Xiunian, this was about as bad as it could get.

She began to quickly contemplate in her mind.

"Well, Doctor Mei," she chose her words carefully and said, "your hospital uses cursed objects as medicine for treatment, right?"

"Yes." Although that was the case, Mei Quzhen did not wish for the other party to enter the hospital, as it would be troublesome if the curse power within the hospital took notice.

An Xiunian started to think of a plan.

Just come out with it, no more acting.

The business card allowed her to trust that the hospital would definitely provide comprehensive treatment to its patients. And for An Xiunian, that was the only hope.

"Doctor Mei. I will just tell you the truth," she said.

Finally, An Xiunian stopped hesitating. She told Mei Quzhen the truth: "I would like to seek treatment at your hospital. I am facing... a very serious problem."

...

Afterwards, An Xiunian finally recounted everything she had experienced since getting on bus route number 34 to Mei Quzhen in full detail.

About forty-five minutes had passed by the time Mei Quzhen heard all of what An Xiunian had to say.

As a Paranormal Doctor, she was accustomed to hearing her patients talk about their bizarre experiences. Even so, An Xiunian’s words still greatly shocked her.

Nevertheless, she was, after all, a Paranormal Doctor and quickly regained her composure.

"Such a thing actually happened..."

"Do you believe me, Doctor Mei?"

"There’s no point for you to lie to me; I wouldn’t give you a cursed object for nothing."

"Doctor Mei, my request is simple. I want to break free from the Yan Family and also from the ghost that has infiltrated the Yan Family!"

Mei Quzhen was startled.

"I thought your demand was to return to your own body. Shouldn’t it be like that?"

"It doesn’t matter." An Xiunian shook her head: "Those crazies from the Yan Family, along with my fiancé named Guan Ning, they all seem abnormal. Being able to change bodies as if changing clothes is just too frightening!"

She swallowed nervously and asked, "What should I do now?"

"They mentioned karma to you, right?"

"Yes, karma," An Xiunian confirmed.

Mei Quzhen began to ponder deeply.

As expected...

"The old lady who disappeared on the bus you first took was probably a karma ghost, to be precise, a karma ghost on the verge of turning into a Malevolent Ghost."

Hearing Mei Quzhen’s words, An Xiunian felt greatly reassured in her heart!

The other party was truly a professional!

After coming into contact with the business card, she had never had any doubts about the doctors’ expertise, and now she was even more convinced that receiving treatment at Hospital 444 was her only hope for survival!

Now, wealth and prosperity were secondary. The key issue was whether she could get away from the Yan Family!

"So, my condition, why did I get possessed and end up in Yan Xin’s body?"

"That part..." Mei Quzhen shook his head and said, "I’m afraid I can’t answer that for you."

"What?"

One thing was certain, there was a Malevolent Ghost on the number 34 bus.

A Karma Ghost that had become a Malevolent Ghost!

"The Soul Sacrifice Ceremony you mentioned just now, I think, must be related to the Seed Ghost. If there’s a way to investigate the curse logic connected with the Seed Ghost, then, maybe, there’s hope. But, according to what you said, the Yan Family, they consider us, the people from our hospital, as enemies?"

"Yes. You... haven’t you dealt with them before?"

"Absolutely not. But they regard us as enemies?"

This point made Mei Quzhen feel quite strange. But it also meant that it would probably be difficult to cooperate with them through cursed objects.

On the contrary, this woman, who is actually An Xiunian...

Of course, she could also be lying. However, based on Mei Quzhen’s experience, the likelihood of her lying was not high.

"To treat your condition, just relying on the cursed objects we have is not enough. I need to find a way to understand information about soul sacrifices, which is likely tied to the truth of the Seed Ghost."

"What exactly does Seed Ghost mean?"

"To put it simply..." Mei Quzhen began to choose his words carefully, "it means to curse the soul of a deceased person through artificial means, transforming it into a specific evil spirit, and then to harness it."

Yes, humans directly creating and even controlling Malevolent Ghosts!

For a Paranormal Doctor, this was also an inconceivable method. At the current stage, Paranormal Doctors could only manipulate ghosts, and anything beyond ghosts could only be harnessed through cursed objects.

"To turn a Karma Ghost directly into a Malevolent Ghost and then, in the process, transfer one’s own soul into another person’s body..." Mei Quzhen had never encountered such a case in his clinical experience, "Here’s what we’ll do, since you’ve made up your mind, come back to the hospital with me for a series of examinations."

"Should I just be admitted to the hospital? That way I might be able to avoid that ghost invading the villa, right?"

This was currently An Xiunian’s biggest concern!

As long as she could avoid the ghost invading the villa, she could solve the problem!

"While this point can only be confirmed after examination, I want to say that the problem is difficult to solve optimistically. To put it simply... no matter where you flee to, that ghost that invaded the villa will definitely find you. I need to figure out the truth of the Soul Sacrifice Ceremony and information regarding the Seed Ghost, then provide targeted treatment for you. Anyway, let’s go back to the hospital so I can register you and check your soul’s condition."

At this, she thought of something else.

That’s right, they could go to Director Lu!

Lu Wen, the director of the Soul Binding Surgery Department!

When it came to possession, Lu Wen was the authority.

Whether this woman was truly possessed and in Yan Xin’s body or lying, as soon as they found Director Lu Wen, they would know immediately!

Lu Wen was also part of the faction of the Deputy Dean in charge of administration, Yin Wuque, so naturally, he would be on the same side as her.

That settled it!

Not long after, within the outpatient building of the Soul Binding Surgery Department.

Mei Quzhen brought An Xiunian here.

The nurses and doctors here were all surprised to see Mei Quzhen and wondered why the head of the Evil Ghost Department had personally come here!

"Xiao Wen," Mei Quzhen approached the nurse’s station and asked, "Is Director Lu Wen in?"
