Chapter 47: Various Eccentric Individuals

  Remember in one second, wonderful internet for free!

  The next morning, Yi Tian found an excuse to tell Old Man Xu that he was going out to play for a few days, and then went to the county's Agricultural Bank to deposit the money.

  When he arrived at the Central Hospital, it happened that Lu Li and Ding Minghui were both there. After chatting with them for a while, he followed Ding Minghui to the Municipal Red Flag Hospital.

  When the car entered the city, Ding Minghui asked: "Yi Tian, you will be staying at the Hongrui Hotel opposite the hospital for the time being. The food in the restaurant there is not bad, and all expenses will be borne by the hospital. It's also more convenient to go back and forth to the hospital when it's closer. If you need anything, just let me know."

  "Okay, Uncle Ting." Just then, Yi Tian saw that there were many people gathered at the hospital's entrance and curiously asked: "Uncle Ting, is this Hongqi Hospital? Is it usually crowded with so many people coming to see a doctor?"

  Ding Minghui seemed to have not heard Yitian speak, and suddenly said: "Not good, something's happened!"

  Upon hearing this, Yi Tian furrowed his brow and also guessed what had happened.

  After the car pulled over, Yitian and Ding Minghui got out of the car and walked quickly towards the hospital. As they walked, they heard people talking from time to time at the hospital gate.

  "What's going on? Another person has committed suicide at Hongqi Hospital?"

  "Who says it's not? Just last time, less than a month ago, someone else committed suicide again, and they were all middle-aged men. This is just too weird."

  "It's a good thing I had a relative transferred out of here earlier, or else who knows what would have happened!"

  "Hmph, this time someone died in less than a month, next time who knows when it'll be!"

  When he heard these people talking, Yi Tian shook his head and smiled. These aunts usually like to gossip about family matters, and such a big thing happened at the Red Flag Hospital, it's hard not to spread quickly, maybe even adding oil and vinegar, by the time it spreads to society, it may become even more bizarre.

  It is said that good news never goes beyond the door, while bad news travels a thousand miles. I suppose this incident is one of the most talked-about topics in the city in recent years.

  Beyond the crowd, I saw the police line, a middle-aged man lying on the cement floor under the hospital building, his body covered in blood, looking quite dead.

  Inside, a forensic doctor is examining the cause of death of the deceased, and a police officer is taking pictures of the deceased. Several other police officers are also questioning hospital staff nearby.

  Ding Minghui walked up close and said to a nearly sixty-year-old white-haired old man: "Dean!"

  This is Liu Hongjun, the president of Red Flag Hospital, who has a high reputation in the medical community within the province and often gives lectures at various universities, deeply loved by medical students.

  He turned around and saw it was Ding Minghui, saying casually: "Oh, Minghui, you're back."

  "Yes, Dean, what's this again?"

  "Not again, another suicide. This patient was found early this morning... Ah..." Liu Hongjun shook his head, looking very helpless.

  As the dean, Liu Hongjun is now facing immense pressure. To say that one or two suicides are normal, but with such consecutive occurrences, there's something fishy about it.

  The hospital has also held several mobilization meetings to strengthen psychological counseling for doctors and patients, and has increased the security work of the hospital, but such things are still inevitable.

  At this time, it was not only Liu Hongjun who was furious, but also a police officer standing next to him had an iron face and furrowed his brow so tightly that he could have squeezed a mosquito to death. His name was He Nan, the head of the criminal investigation team responsible for overseeing the case. The incident had spread like wildfire in the city and had received high attention from the municipal leaders, especially the police chief who ordered a thorough investigation into the suicide at Hongqi Hospital.

  But the events happened one after another, and now he is completely confused, without any clue to follow.

  "Director Liu, we will be questioning all medical personnel in charge of this patient later. Would you please arrange for that?" He Nan said.

  "No problem, our hospital will definitely cooperate fully in this matter." Turning around, Liu Hongjun said to Ding Minghui: "Minghui, follow me to the conference room for a trip!" He then stepped towards the hospital building.

  As soon as the conference room was mentioned, Ding Minghui knew the dean's intention and followed him without saying much. Yi Tian had just observed the deceased and didn't notice anything unusual on his body. At Ding Minghui's call, he also entered the hospital together with him.

  It wasn't until Liu Hongjun and the other two quickly walked into the conference room that he noticed Yi Tian behind Ding Minghui.

  "He frowned and said: 'Young man, this is a place for medical staff to enter and exit. Don't wander around everywhere, go play somewhere else!'"

  “Just then…” Just as Yi Tian was somewhat embarrassed and didn't know what to say, Ding Minghui hastily took over the conversation: “Director, you've misunderstood. This person is someone I've invited, a rather unusual individual who may be able to help the hospital get to the bottom of and resolve the strange occurrences that have been happening recently!”

  "What's with him?" Liu Hongjun blurted out conditioned reflexively.

  Is this guy for real?

  Liu Hongjun's mind was filled with question marks at this time, his brain nerves were disconnected, and he didn't react for a moment.

  So-called Qi Yi Ren Shi refers to practitioners, spiritual beings and people with special functions. In people's subconscious cognition, Qi Yi Ren Shi are often those who look older and have certain special skills.

  When Liu Hongjun saw Yi Tian's youthful appearance, he couldn't associate him with the strange person no matter what.

  Liu Hongjun shook his head and smiled slightly: "Minghui, you didn't get it wrong, did you?"

  Ding Minghui said affirmatively, "Director, absolutely no mistake, his name is Yi Tian. A while ago, there was a critically ill patient who was possessed by an evil spirit and he was the one who cured him."

  Liu Hongjun looked up and down at Yitian again, then said: "People get old and their eyesight isn't what it used to be, don't mind this young brother."

  "Hehe, Director, you're being too polite." Yi Tian smiled in response, and he didn't take this small matter to heart at all.

  "Alright, let's go to the conference room then!" In a moment, several people arrived at the conference room. As soon as they entered, they saw four people sitting around a large round table talking.

  When they saw someone coming in, several people stopped discussing.

  Among those present were two Taoist priests, one wearing a gray robe and a bamboo hairpin, who appeared to be over sixty years old, with silver hair and white beard, exuding an air of Taoist elegance. Next to him was another priest in his thirties, with thick eyebrows and black beard, robust build, and piercing eyes that seemed to scrutinize everyone, likely the two were master and disciple.

  The other two were a man and a woman, the woman looked over 40 years old, with a strong rural flavor, wearing colorful clothes from head to toe, her makeup was also very special, a thick layer of white powder was applied to her face, as if it could fall off at any time, there were obvious round blushes on both sides of her face, and her large mouth was also painted with red lipstick, but only in the middle part of her lips, perhaps to make her mouth look smaller.

  What's most distinctive is her two childish pigtails, each adorned with a red silk flower, making it difficult to associate her image with that of a normal person. If one were to describe this woman as eccentric, it might not be entirely fitting; perhaps describing her as the most eccentric among eccentrics would be more suitable.

  The man was about thirty-five years old, with dark skin and wearing a black suit. He also wore a large pair of black sunglasses that made his square face look smaller. The sunglasses were not very transparent, making it hard to see the changes in his eyes. His hair seemed to have been greased, combed into a shiny black pompadour, but actually hadn't been washed for a long time. If it was slightly darker outside, even if he stood next to you, it would be difficult to find him.

  Yitian sat down with Liu Hongjun and listened to these people's occasional discussions about their views on the suicide incident.

  In the conversation, through a few people's words, Yitian also roughly understood some relevant information about these strange individuals. The two Taoist priests called themselves "Shan Zhai" Taoists, and for some reason, it sounds a bit different when read aloud. If they use the name "Mountain Stronghold", their Taoist temple will surely make a name for itself at home and abroad in the future.

  It doesn't matter if the Taoist temple is fake, as long as the people are not fake. But to invite two fake Taoist priests for such a big event, it's really adding chaos.

  The old one calls himself Ni Shang Zhenren, and this name is quite good, with a refined yet common flavor. It seems that the person who gave him this name has a rich cultural background. The young one is called Meng Mei Liang Zhenren, and he looks like Zhang Fei, but his name is so elegant, I'm impressed.

  Just as Yi Tian was analyzing the names of these two people, he discovered a strange phenomenon and couldn't help but laugh secretly. Okay, Meng Ni Mei Shang Liang (you can't negotiate with him)!

  That weird woman calls herself 'Hua Gu', speaks in a soft and delicate voice, and is quite cute whether it's her actions or speech, looks like she still has an innocent childlike heart.

  The one wearing glasses, Yi Tian hadn't even learned his name yet and had already given him a nickname...'Coal Ball'. When he finally understood his real name, Yi Tian's expression turned serious. Because this person was called Hong Tao, and it was unclear whether or not he was the same Hong Tao that 'Ma Gun' had mentioned earlier, from the Maiyi Gate.

  Hong Tao is a man of few words, from start to finish he didn't say much. On the desk in front of him, there was a bowl with peanuts and melon seeds inside.

  When he looked again and saw that no one else had any, Yi Tian was somewhat puzzled. This should have been brought out by Hong Tao himself, but why hadn't he ever touched it?

  There was also a point that made Yitian feel strange, which was the inexplicable coldness that Hongtao's body gave off, and even at a distance, he could deeply sense it.

  Through these two points, Yi Tian had a guess. Occasionally, he would glance around and turn on the Heavenly Eye Technique. When he turned his head back again, he saw a shocking scene... "Ghostly Child!"
