Chapter 437 - 435: You... Know Me?
"Sister Zhao... Sister Zhao... wait for me!"
At Hemei Hospital, a middle-aged nurse had just walked up to the elevator and was about to press the door button when she suddenly heard someone calling out from behind.
She turned around and saw that it was a new young nurse in the nursing department, Li.
"Good morning, Sister Zhao!"
Li greeted the middle-aged nurse with a smile.
"Good morning to you too!"
The middle-aged nurse nodded with a smile.
As they exchanged greetings, the elevator arrived.
The two of them stepped into the elevator one after the other, and the middle-aged nurse first pressed the floor button for her destination, then turned her head and asked, "Li, what floor are you going to?"
"Sister Zhao, I’m going to the sixth floor, thank you!"
Li replied with a cheerful smile.
"Going to see your boyfriend again?"
The middle-aged nurse knew that Li’s boyfriend was on the sixth floor, so she teased her with a smile.
"He forgot something, so I’m taking it to him."
Li said, shaking the bag in her hand, looking a little embarrassed.
The middle-aged nurse saw this, just smiled, and didn’t say much more.
Li suddenly spoke up, "Sister Zhao, did you hear about it?"
"Hear about what?"
The middle-aged nurse asked, looking at Li with some confusion.
"The night shift security guards all submitted their resignation letters last night."
Li lowered her voice, speaking mysteriously.
"Weren’t their benefits quite good? Why did they suddenly want to quit?"
The middle-aged nurse became more puzzled the more she listened.
Hemei Hospital’s benefits were very good.
Even the most basic security job paid a five-figure salary a month, not to mention other allowances and benefits.
Li chuckled, "I heard it was because during their night patrol last night, they encountered a ghost!"
"And it was a female ghost wearing a hospital gown!"
"A ghost?"
The mention of this word made the middle-aged nurse frown.
She gave a derisive laugh, "What ghost in the world? I’ve been here for seven or eight years, done plenty of night shifts and never seen anything ghostly."
"If you ask me, those security guys must have found new jobs and made up an excuse."
Hearing this, Li blinked a few times, nodded slightly, and said, "Sister Zhao, you have a point too!"
"But I saw Old Dong this morning, one of the ones wanting to quit, and he looked deathly pale, didn’t seem like he was making it up."
"How could it be?"
The middle-aged nurse still wouldn’t believe it.
Just as she finished speaking, the elevator lights above them suddenly flickered a few times.
The middle-aged nurse frowned in displeasure, "What’s wrong with this elevator?"
"Those elevator repair guys really do a lousy job..."
Before she could finish her complaint, there was a sudden "clunk" sound, as if the elevator had stopped.
Then all the lights inside the elevator went out instantly.
"Ah!"
The suddenness of this scene made Li scream out in fright.
The middle-aged nurse was used to storms and didn’t panic like Li.
She took out her phone, turned on the flashlight, and glared at Li, "Why are you screaming? Just a little elevator malfunction."
"Nearly pierced my eardrums!"
"S-sorry, Sister Zhao!"
Li blushed and quickly apologized.
The middle-aged nurse was just about to dial the logistics department to get them to come repair the elevator.
But when she dialed the number, she found that her phone had no signal at all.
"Strange!"
The middle-aged nurse frowned and muttered, "There’s always been signal in the elevator, why is there none now?"
"Li, check your phone, see if you have any signal..."
She had just turned her head when she heard another scream from Li beside her.
This scream was truly piercing and sharp!
The middle-aged nurse felt like her eardrums were being pierced by pain.
But just as she was about to get angry and scold her, she suddenly noticed Li’s expression was very wrong.
Li’s face, which had been a healthy flush, was now ghostly pale.
Those big, gleaming eyes were wide open.
More importantly, the middle-aged nurse also noticed Li was trembling all over.
"Li... Li... what’s wrong with you?"
The middle-aged nurse subconsciously thought Li was having some kind of recurring issue.
But Li, with a face full of fear, said, "Ghost... ghost... Sister Zhao, there’s a ghost behind you..."
"Hiss..."
Li’s words and terrified appearance instantly sent a chill down the middle-aged nurse’s spine, making her shiver involuntarily.
"Wh-what kind of joke is this?"
"How could there be ghosts in this world?"
The middle-aged nurse managed to squeeze out a smile.
Her words were meant to comfort herself, as well as Li.
"S-Sister Zhao... I’m... I’m not lying to you..."
Li quickly turned her head aside, replying in a trembling voice.
"Gulp!"
The middle-aged nurse swallowed nervously.
Just then, a sinister and ghostly voice suddenly whispered in her ear, "You... guys..."
"Re-really a ghost?"
The middle-aged nurse broke out in a cold sweat from fright.
She mechanically turned her head and found a woman in a hospital gown standing there.
Hospital gown? Woman?
Is this the female ghost those night shift guards encountered?
When the middle-aged nurse saw the female ghost’s face, she froze.
Then, exceedingly terrified, she said, "Song... Song Feifei?"
The moment she said that name, she staggered back several steps, her body shaking uncontrollably as warmth ran down her leg.
"You... know me?"
Song Feifei’s eyes focused, staring directly at the middle-aged nurse.
"Seen... seen you a couple of times..."
The middle-aged nurse was about to cry.
The ghostly pale face, the cold aura emanating from her, and the empty pants legs all confirmed that the Song Feifei before her was a real ghost!
All these years at Hemei Hospital, she had seen her share of the dead.
But she had never seen someone turn into a ghost after death!
"Sister Song, though you died unjustly, it has nothing to do with Sister Zhao and me!"
"If you want revenge, you should go after the vice president..."
At this moment, Li suddenly spoke up.
The middle-aged nurse gave Li a surprised look, then nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, yes!"
"The ones who killed you were the vice president and them, nothing to do with us two!"
"If you’re looking for scapegoats, go find them!"
"Spare us, please..."
Song Feifei frowned upon hearing this.
So it was as that great villain said, she was murdered!
And the ones who killed her could very likely be the vice president and the others they mentioned!
No, I have to know the truth of everything!
With this thought, Song Feifei immediately said, "I died unjustly and can’t enter the Underworld..."
"I need to know who killed me..."
