Al Morgan, a new doctor at St. Mary's Mission Hospital, had a long nightmare before the alarm clock went off for the day.

He didn't remember much of the nightmare, but the long, suffocating discomfort of the nightmare lasted until after he woke up.He had no appetite and was very depressed, but he forced himself to eat dinner, and then he hurried out of the house with his coat on and headed for his work place.

Today is a special day for the hospital.

Well, in doctor talk, this day is called "examination day".

At the beginning, Al didn't quite understand why the "examination day" would bring such huge psychological pressure to all doctors, but then he could probably understand a little bit—the senior pastors and bishops of the Adventist sect all chose The St. Mary's Mission Hospital will carry out the necessary treatment, and on the "examination day", they will attract a more noble "mysterious person" to conduct a physical examination.

Thinking of the current scale and power of the Adventist faction, Al can more or less understand the nervousness of his colleagues.

If he wants to have a physical examination with the Pope one day, he will also feel a lot of pressure and feel very nervous...

Of course, Al also knows that there are probably some things in this hospital that are not suitable for newcomers to know, which are bothering the doctors.The evidence is that Al once revealed some of his thoughts to his colleagues, and his colleagues all showed complicated and subtle wry smiles, and they looked at Al like an old man who has experienced many vicissitudes Disobedient children.

"Of course, for God's sake, I hope you never have to go through the 'check'."

One of the colleagues once said this to Al.

In fact, Al has never experienced a real "examination day", and the days when the "mysterious person" comes to the hospital for examination do not seem to be completely fixed.During the six months when Al came to work at St. Mary's Mission Hospital, there was never an "examination day" until today——

Three days ago, before Al got off work, he was called into the office by the chief physician. He was assigned a fairly peripheral task, responsible for the inspection and preparation of some tools and medicines.This was supposed to be something a nurse was supposed to do, but somehow it was assigned to him.

"Well... the head nurse said she wasn't feeling well. It took some physical and willpower to get in touch with 'that person', and you'd be a better candidate, Dr. Al."

The chief doctor explained with a weak look.

Al didn't raise any objections, after all, his work was not onerous.

"...I haven't been in charge of that person's inspection for a long time. Today will be a tough battle. I think I will need some people."

The dean's eyes turned, and finally fell on Al.

Al had to step forward and came to the dean.Some doctors who had a good relationship with him gave him sympathetic looks, which made Al feel inexplicably uneasy.

But time has not allowed him to ask any unnecessary questions. Through the window of the old building, he saw a dark convoy sliding slowly into the parking lot of the hospital like a huge black snake.

"They are here."

The dean sighed and everyone started walking to the inspection department in the old building.

St. Mary's Mission Hospital is a nice hospital, but that doesn't include the old building.Al had never liked this place—it was a former facility used by St. Mary's Church Hospital. The building was quite old, and its interior always had a gloomy atmosphere.Every time Al walked in here, he felt that the hair on the back of his neck would stand up slightly, and he wouldn't be surprised if he encountered ghosts and ghosts here one day.

But the strangest thing is that the physical examination of "that person" will be placed in a dilapidated old building far away from the new building. After all, "that person" has such a noble identity and status, people should have provided him with more Good physical examination conditions are right.

But from beginning to end, no one answered Al's doubts.

They don't need to answer either, because soon reality will answer everything for Al.

Al thought that he had already prepared himself, that he might see an extremely arrogant, rough-haired, hard-to-serve "superior person", and he might be found in a lot of trouble... But he didn't expect it It turns out that individuals who really need to be tested don't have this problem.

Because they can't move or speak.

They are just two living dead people.

The first person to be pushed into the consulting room was a woman with a skinny face.Several tall, black-clothed waiters surrounded her, escorting her vigilantly.

She was sitting in a wheelchair with her head tilted back, her jaw was slightly open because of the slack, and the surface of her skin was covered with black corpse spots, exuding a suffocating stench of embalming fluid.

"This is……"

Al almost spit it out, he couldn't believe his eyes.

In his opinion, the place where the woman in front of him should really stay is the morgue, and the person who examines her should be a forensic doctor.

He couldn't comprehend everything in front of him.

The dean turned his head and glanced at him quietly. He patted Al on the shoulder and shook his head silently.

[Don't make a sound. 】

The dean said with mouth.

In the next second, something that completely subverted Al's cognition happened.

He watched helplessly as the corpse moved by itself.

There was a "ho ho" in her throat (Al noticed a long gash on her neck), and she staggered to her feet from the wheelchair.

She tilted her head and looked around at the people around her like a person just waking up from a dream. Finally, her eyes stayed on the Dean's position.

"Hey...Lida..."

She made a hoarse voice, two thin tears overflowed from her dry eyelids, her emotions became agitated, her body shook, and she tried to approach the dean.

But those waiters in black immediately controlled her.

"Your Highness, please be quiet."

One of the waiters tried to calm her down, but it only made her more out of control.

"Ah ah ah ah ah……"

The corpse-like woman let out a scream of pain.

She stared at the Dean and began to cry hoarsely.

"Kill me... Lida... please... kill me, I can't bear it... let me die..."

Al's breathing was particularly rapid.

For he had already recognized who that terrible woman was—the Adventist Madonna Rosa.

A chill spread from Al's heels to the top of his head, as if a real ghost had passed through his body.

He had never been an Adventist believer, but he vaguely remembered that the woman's appearance was definitely not what she is now.

That woman is living in a living hell.

Al was pretty sure of that.

Rosa's collapse and madness plunged the scene into chaos for a while. Al thought things would not get any worse, but soon he found out that he was wrong.

Because he watched another senior member of the Adventist faction being pushed into the room.

In his comparison, the corpse-like Rosa could be called radiant.

In fact, Al has completely fallen into a state of trance, and he can't understand why a mummy-like body like Daniel Wright still maintains signs of life.

The man's head was sunken, and his skin had been browned, giving off a luster of corpse wax.

But he is still alive.

The moment she saw him, Rosa fell silent.

Trembling, she curled up and hid beside the wheelchair.

"I'm sorry... woo... sorry..."

She starts to cry.

And Daniel Wright just glanced at her with eyes like looking at garbage, and then slowly turned his head, observing the other people in the room.

The moment his gaze swept over him, Al just wanted to scream.

Not a human being sitting there, but some kind of monster.

A malevolent and eerie twist.The devil should not exist in this world.

"Hehe...this time...you want...how...to torment me?"

Daniel suddenly met the Dean's gaze, and he spoke slowly.

"as usual."

The dean said, his voice sounded calm, but Al, who was standing beside him, noticed dense beads of sweat oozing from the back of the dean's neck.

"The man who examined me last time...was your boy...wasn't he? A nice fellow named...Ham."

Daniel opened his mouth, revealing an extremely terrifying smile.

"I had a nice... chat with him... he's a good boy... isn't he?"

The dean's body trembled slightly, and he opened his mouth, but this time he didn't make any sound for a long time.

Seeing this, Daniel's laughter became much louder.

Al felt his bladder swell, for the first time ever, and he was terrified.

Not only because of those two people, Rosa and Daniel, the founders of Adventism and the Holy Mother, their horrible appearance and obviously abnormal physiological state, but also because of the extremely disturbing feeling brought by them. thing……

Al couldn't describe the smell in words, but it did remind him of his own nightmares.

The whole space seems to be slightly distorted and alienated around the two as the center, and Al feels that the world he is familiar with and the world he is in now seem to have been separated.

His heart was beating unbelievably fast, and his back was covered with cold sweat.

It was at this time that the man appeared.

Al never expected that one day he would appear in the same space as the Son of Adventism.

Joshua's appearance seemed to suddenly dilute the twisted feeling brought by Daniel and Rosa, but it didn't make Al feel much better.

Compared with the young man with weird looks on TV, Joshua in reality has a stronger sense of alienation.

Al had to bite his tongue desperately so as not to spit it out directly.

He felt like he was about to faint.
