Flame red

Yu Le told Yanhong that the VIP ward basically has everything you want, separate toilet, bathroom, storage boxes, TV, coffee table, sofa, and a series of furniture are just like a small hotel.And there are special cleaning staff to clean the toilets and bathrooms every day to ensure that the patients can be spotless when they are in use.

——If it weren't for some terminal illness and disability, living in it would be like a vacation.

After the introduction, she muttered to Yanhong again: "Why do you ask about the situation in the VIP ward?"

"Oh, it's nothing, I'm just writing novels." Yanhong replied.

And Yu Le seemed as surprised by this explanation as he was when he was invited to go to the government together. "Fiction? You write a novel? What novel?"

Yan Hong rubbed her forehead, and laughed a few times. "It's just a sudden inspiration, not really writing. By the way, what time do you usually clean the ward?"

"Well... Different hospitals are a little different. For example, Guofu seems to be after dinner. The last time my dad broke his leg and was hospitalized, he always complained. Every time I didn't finish my meal, the cleaning lady knocked on the door with a mop. "

"Okay. Thank you." After counting the time, it was estimated that dinner would be almost over, so Yanhong casually perfunctorily asked Yu Le about the novel, and then hung up the phone.

I walked into the toilet and looked around, and easily found the cleaning staff's tool storage room. The door was not locked, and no one was seen when I opened the door.What's even more unbelievable is that there happened to be a set of light blue overalls hanging inside, complete with masks and gloves, which made Yanhong feel that she was so lucky today.

But she knew that now was not the time to think about it, so she quickly changed her clothes, then found a brand new garbage bag from the cabinet, filled another bucket of clean water, poured a little detergent, and stirred it a few times to let the people see it. It was indeed the same thing, so he put on a mask and walked out of the toilet with his back straightened.

Walking in the corridor where the floor was so bright that people could be seen, Yan Hong felt that she really looked like a thin cleaning lady.

But she didn't go directly to the room surrounded by the bodyguards in black, but started cleaning from the ward closest to the toilet. She replaced each ward with a new garbage bag and cleaned the toilet decently.

There are quite a few VIP wards in the People's Hospital, but there are nameplates hanging on the door, and there are not many patients living there. Yanhong quickly cleaned Mu Yu's room.

As soon as I stood at the door, I felt the chill on my face—is there really a reason for those bodyguards in black to wear long-sleeved suits?

She murmured in her heart, and then said rigidly to the men who were two heads taller than herself: "For recuperating patients, cleanliness comes first. May I change the garbage bags?"

The bodyguards saw that Yan Hong was busy all the time from the very beginning, so they didn't feel suspicious, and nodded for her to open the door by themselves.

Yan Hong breathed a sigh of relief, then took another deep breath, and knocked on the door.It was the manager who opened the door, who sized her up a few times, but probably didn't recognize who it was, so Yan Hong repeated what she just said in a good-tempered manner.It was probably because the bodyguards let her go, and she looked really clean, the manager just told her to be gentle and not obstruct her too much.

Walking into the room, Yan Hong told herself that the most important thing is to ignore that centipede, ignore that huge centipede, and ignore that fat centipede that filled the entire room with her own power.

With a dazed expression, she remembered who had told her before that some people were invulnerable, but they were scared to death.

——However, Yan Hong now understands that there may be some of them who are disgusted to death.

Mu Yu lay quietly on the white hospital bed, his long hair was loose, his face was haggard and pale, almost the same color as the pillows and sheets, his eyes were closed, his brows were slightly wrinkled, and the forehead was still covered with gauze. He didn't know if he was sleeping or in a coma. Awake.And when he was sent to the hospital immediately after the car accident, it was obvious that he didn't bring the string of copper coins with him.

The middle-aged woman sat by the bed, took off her sunglasses, a few light crow's feet lines could still be seen on her well-maintained face, but the worry and focus on her face made Yan Hong sure that she was Mu Yu's mother.

As for the giant centipede that was so huge that it almost occupied the entire room, Yan Hong didn't want to pay too much attention to it. At a glance, she knew that compared to the last time she saw it, both inside and outside had definitely undergone earth-shaking changes. Folded and piled up beside Mu Yu's bed like a plush toy stuffed into a storage box.To not haggard under the entanglement of such a behemoth is simply a dream.

She stared at her toes, walked into the bathroom in a hurry, closed the door, and carefully looked at the situation outside through the crack of the door. The wriggling tail of the big centipede happened to be lying on the door of the bathroom.

Yan Hong sighed, she couldn't see Mu Yu from this angle, only her mother's back.

She took out the small jade knife from the pocket of her clothes, and when she stretched out her hand, she found that the wound from last time had not healed, and even though the Band-Aid had been removed, it was still aching.

But Yan Hong didn't care so much, rolled up his sleeves, and cut a knife on his arm, the wound was not too big or small, after waiting for two seconds, he saw blood gushing out, and then the pain gradually spread gently.

She stained her hands with blood, her palms were sticky, and then quietly stretched out from the crack of the door.

The centipede seemed to feel something, and his whole body trembled.Afraid that it would react, Yan Hong immediately slapped that tail with her hand.Immediately after that, a hoarse neighing sounded in his mind, and the centipede instantly became manic, seemed to shrink in pain, and fled to the side, curled up like a huge relief.

The green eyes showed a ferocious look in an instant, staring at Yanhong closely, but also worried about her blood, so he could only growl angrily.

Yanhong changed the garbage bag in the bathroom, then pushed open the door and came into the room, thinking to find an excuse later and run to the centipede to give it a slap of blood.After walking a few steps, I suddenly heard a difficult coughing sound from the hospital bed.

Then the three people in the room froze for a moment.

In the next second, Mu Yu sat up, lay down on the bedside and started to vomit, but he didn't know if it was because of his injury, but what he vomited was only slightly bloody water and bile.

The manager was startled, and rushed out without saying "I'm going to see a doctor", while the middle-aged woman hurriedly patted Mu Yu's back, and hurriedly took out a tissue from her handbag.

Yan Hong glanced at the vomit, and found that there was a small white centipede the size of a finger wriggling inside.She snorted, then ran to Mu Yu's side, and opened the garbage bag in her hand.

"Spit here, spit here." While talking, he took advantage of the chaos and wiped the base of the other's ears.At the same time, Yan Hong heard the angry neighing of the big centipede again in her mind, as if she was extremely impatient with her action.

Mu Yu trembled while coughing, probably because the blood on the back of his ear was lower than his body temperature.She looked up at Yan Hong, wondering if she recognized her.

But whether she recognized it or not, Yan Hong didn't say anything.After Mu Yu was relieved a little, a group of doctors ran in, pushed her aside, surrounded Mu Yu and began to check, they all lamented that they finally woke up from the coma, and it seemed that the most dangerous period had passed.

- Strange.

While muttering in her heart, Yan Hong carefully dragged the vomit clean, then turned her head to look around, and at some point the big centipede disappeared, probably because she knew that Mu Yu had Yan Hong's blood on her body, so she couldn't help it. Get closer and leave first.

Right now, she doesn't know how to find that thing, and even if she finds it, she is not sure that she will be able to get rid of it successfully, and it will be bad if she loses her own life.

The doctor in the ward kept talking to the manager and Mu Yu's mother about the current examination results. After listening to a few words, Yan Hong thought that there should be no problem for the time being, so she quietly left with the garbage bag containing vomit and centipedes.

She could feel that Mu Yu was staring at her all the time, but Yan Hong didn't look back, the most urgent thing was to deal with the trash in her hands first.

The centipedes in the corridor fled in all directions, and seemed to have lost their support immediately after the big centipede left, looking for hiding places one after another, not daring to hover around openly.And the bloody smell from Yanhong's body made them panic even more.

After wandering around in the corridor, she easily drove away those centipedes, and her eyes suddenly became clear and clean, and her mood improved a lot.

When changing clothes in the toilet, I realized that the wound on my arm was burning and painful, bleeding from a sleeve, Yan Hong threw the clothes on the ground, and the beige wall was flung with some conspicuous red spots, she used it casually. The rag on the side was wiped off.

Without gauze and band-aids to stop the bleeding, Yanhong could only take out a few paper towels from the toilet and press them on the wound to stop the bleeding. It felt rough to the touch, like poor-quality draft paper.

But also thanks to the blood on the arm, the little centipede in the garbage bag seemed to be fragile and unable to withstand blows. Once it was smoked by the smell of blood, it just whimpered and dried up, falling into the pale yellow bile like a few small branches.Yan Hong then threw the garbage bag into the cubicle, and didn't bother to empty out the vomit.

After tidying up, she pulled out a few more tissues, and walked out of the toilet with her arms pressed down.Halfway through, the phone in my pocket vibrated.

Yan Hong took it out to have a look, and found that it was Jian Xiangli.The call came at the right time, just as everything was busy.She pursed her lips and swiped the connection symbol.

"The Lu family just called me." The exorcist's first sentence always got straight to the point without delay, and then he said: "Master Lu just woke up and delivered a disturbing news."

"Uneasy news?" Yan Hong subconsciously became nervous.

"It seems that our exorcism tools have no effect on those centipedes." Jian Xiangli's voice did not sound so relaxed.

Yan Hong was startled, hummed slowly, and then said: "Just now I went to Mu Yu's room and saw that centipede..."

"And then? Have you been cured?"

"The blood still seems to have a great influence on that thing, but I guess my ability is not enough to cure it. I can only drive it away, and now I don't know where it went."

"...So that's how it is." Jian Xiangli muttered something for some reason, and then comforted her. "At least for now there's still something that works."

"Hmm." Although this kind of thing is not so easy and simple to squander at will.Yanhong silently decided to spend all her pocket money on buying red dates to replenish her health after returning home.

Someone over there yelled, and Jian Xiangli responded, and then said that I had to hang up beforehand.

Before Yan Hong could respond, the connection was disconnected instantly.Leaving a boring busy tone, she sighed and put the phone back in her pocket, thinking about how to get back with the bag of apples.

But since we're here, why don't we drop by to see Mrs. Lu, so as to save the trouble of carrying this fruit.

Thinking of this, Yanhong ran to the first floor and asked where the intensive care unit was.The little nurse on duty pointed to the outermost inpatient department without looking up, saying that it was in the outpatient building opposite.

She thanked her, but the other party didn't respond, so she staggered out of the inpatient department and walked towards the outpatient building.The night was lonely all the way, the street lights were dim, and the prosperity of the government did not affect the tranquility in the hospital at all. Occasionally, an ambulance with lights on roared in from the door, like a beautiful lightning bolt.

Outside the lobby of the inpatient department, there were two people with cameras behind their backs smoking. They seemed to be reporters squatting to monitor Mu Yu's situation.Yan Hong casually bypassed them and walked to the outpatient building.

After asking the nurse at the front desk, and knowing the location of Master Lu, Yan Hong conveniently landed, turned around and walked into the elevator.

Unimpededly found the ward where the exorcist blushed when he heard the words "girl's boudoir". On the way, he met a patrolling doctor who kindly reminded him to hurry up and not stay here after nine o'clock. up.

The intensive care unit is not allowed to enter now, so Yan Hong can only take a look outside.Master Lu has woken up, but because he is not out of danger, he is undergoing examination.And the two young men waiting anxiously outside the door seemed to be from the Lu family.

Yanhong explained to them the reason for her visit. Unexpectedly, when they heard her origin, the two young people looked like they had just woken up from a dream, and they all said that Master Lu had mentioned it when he woke up.

"The young master said that the monsters around Mu Yu are not afraid of exorcism spells and spells, they don't look like the kind they met in the past." One of the young men with a crew cut told Yan Hong.

"Then have you tried using blood?" Yan Hong pointed to the wound on her arm. "I tried it just now, and the centipede left."

"Blood?" Another young man frowned, looking over her obvious wound, which had started to swell due to improper handling for a while.Then the man shook his head. "The average exorcist doesn't use blood to exorcise demons."

"Huh?" Yan Hong was taken aback.

Seeing that she was puzzled, the young man explained: "Even if it's called an exorcist, blood still has nothing special like ordinary people—unless they were born on a special day."

"...Is that so?"

It is estimated that even the snake woman does not know when Yan Hong was born. Naturally, it is even more impossible for her to calculate the date of birth. In the past when filling out personal information in the class, she just wrote down the date casually. Yanhong's birthday is scheduled for the day after her own.That's how I can be sisters.

The two young men from the Lu family looked at her closely, as if they were observing a hibernating boa constrictor.Yan Hong felt uncomfortable when she was seen, and when she was about to find an excuse to leave, the door of the ward was opened, and then the doctors who were examining Master Lu also came out.

"The patient is basically conscious now, but because the lung wound was too large before, so let's observe it for another two days." One of the tall doctors wearing glasses said to the two young people from the Lu family.

"OK, thanks."

"It's best to let the patient rest now, but just now he said that he has something to talk about urgently..." He pointed to Yanhong. "The little girl said."

"I?"

"Well, let's go in after cleaning, but don't talk for too long."

Since it was Master Lu who called the roll call, Yanhong didn't refuse to be negligent, and directly changed into clean clothes, washed her hands, and walked into the intensive care unit.

As soon as he took the first step, he smelled a familiar bloody smell.She frowned, but seeing Master Lu staring at her, she hurried to the hospital bed.

The young man who talked about Feng Shui and gossip when we first met now has an infusion tube inserted into his body, his face is pale, and he looks very weak, so Yan Hong carefully moved back a step, keeping a certain distance to avoid further damage.

"Mu Yu." Master Lu spat out a name with a hoarse voice.

Yan Hong just wanted to say that I am not Mu Yu, please stop talking nonsense.

However, before he could open his mouth, a bone-piercing chill rushed from his back to the center of his eyebrows.She trembled for a while, and then saw the expression on Master Lu's face.

His eyes suddenly fell into darkness, his consciousness and vision seemed to be covered by a black cloth, when Yan Hong regained consciousness, he felt something burnt his palm, and heard the siren of the intensive care unit beeping.

She felt a chill in her heart and immediately yelled. "doctor!"

The doctor who hadn't gone far outside hurriedly opened the door and walked into the ward in the darkness. After a few seconds, the light in front of him turned on again.

Master Lu's face was pale, lying on the side of the bed, eyes closed, unconscious, a faint trace of blood could be seen at the corner of his mouth.The doctor and the young people of the Lu family were all in chaos.

When they were about to turn their heads to ask what happened to Yan Hong, they found that the fragile little girl had disappeared without a trace.

Scattered pieces of ashes floated down all around, falling to the ground and being trampled upon.
