Chapter 445 - 443: Black Line
"Elder Xuan, look at this..."
Sun Zhen quietly moved closer to Sima Xuan.
His master had a good relationship with Sima Xuan.
Even though he later had a fallout with his master, he still maintained a relationship with Sima Xuan.
This time, the haunted happenings at Hemei Hospital were also the reason he had Sun Jie invite Sima Xuan.
But just as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that Sima Xuan was standing there like a lamppost, completely still.
"Elder Xuan, what are you..."
Sun Zhen’s eyes darted around, his face full of confusion.
He instinctively turned his head in the direction of Sima Xuan’s gaze, only to feel a chill run from his tailbone all the way up to the top of his head.
Dr. Kong, who had just died tragically, was now staring straight at them with unseeing, open eyes.
These eyes had lost their vitality and spirit, devoid of any emotion.
Yet when Sun Zhen’s gaze met them, he felt an overwhelming fear from the depths of his soul.
This eerie and unpredictable death stare seemed to be hinting at something!
For a moment, Sun Zhen felt his scalp tingle with numbness, and a sense of regret rose in his heart.
He had thought the haunted events at Hemei Hospital were just coincidences.
After all, where in this world would there be ghosts?
But now it seemed there might really be an evil ghost here!
"Damn! Could it really be as that old Daoist said, that the Spiritual Qi Revival has begun?"
Sun Zhen pondered to himself.
The other people’s faces in the room also showed signs of seriousness.
On the surface, this might seem like an accident.
The expansion bolt of the crystal chandelier had loosened, causing the chandelier to crash suddenly.
However, except for Xuan Tong, Xuanxin, and others who were kept in the dark, both the Hemei Hospital side and the investigation team understood what was happening!
Song Feifei was here again!
The sudden chill of the wind was the best proof!
Tie Shanshan pursed her lips tightly, leaning against her father.
She glanced at her father, noticing he was looking up at where the chandelier was hanging.
"There’s no problem!"
Tie Xiong frowned slightly, muttering to himself.
"Huh? What’s going on here?"
Captain Fu, who was examining the body, suddenly exclaimed.
"What is it?"
The crowd gathered immediately upon hearing the voice.
"Everyone, look here!"
As Captain Fu spoke, he gently rolled up Dr. Kong’s sleeve, revealing his arm.
In the next instant, everyone gasped in shock.
There on Dr. Kong’s arm was a thin, black line as thin as a toothpick.
"What is this?"
Dean Zhang adjusted his glasses, puzzled.
"I’m not sure!"
Captain Fu shook his head.
Though he was the captain of the city detective squad, he was still just an ordinary person and had never seen anything like this before.
"It’s moving! The black line is moving!"
Dr. Mi, standing on the outskirts of the crowd, suddenly cried out.
The crowd turned their attention back, staring at the line for some time.
Sure enough, the line twitched a few times, just as Dr. Mi had said, and then returned to normal.
The twitching movement was slight, and the duration was short.
If you weren’t observing for a long time, you’d easily miss it.
"What on earth is it?"
"Why does it feel like a worm?"
Captain Fu frowned deeply, looking again and again, muttering to himself.
"It really does look like a worm!"
Group Leader Xu nodded slightly, sharing the same opinion with Captain Fu.
"Let’s stop analyzing it, just report it to the police immediately!"
Sun Jie licked her lips, looking at Captain Fu and the others.
Captain Fu, upon hearing this, looked up, glanced at her with a smile, and nodded: "Indeed, we should report it since someone has died here, and it needs a thorough investigation!"
"Zhao, call Old Feng and have him send people over!"
The words were addressed to a young police officer behind him.
"Okay, Captain Fu!"
The young officer Zhao immediately took out his phone, preparing to dial Old Feng.
But when he finished dialing, he found there was no signal on his phone.
He tried to make the call, but it wouldn’t go through.
Helpless, he said aloud, "Captain Fu, I don’t know what’s going on, but I have no signal at all!"
Hearing this, Group Leader Xu handed his phone over to Zhao, saying: "Here, use mine!"
"Thank you, Group Leader Xu!"
Zhao gratefully accepted the phone, looked down at it, and was immediately stunned.
"What’s wrong?"
Group Leader Xu asked.
"Group Leader Xu, your phone doesn’t have a signal either!"
Zhao pointed at the phone screen, smiling bitterly.
Group Leader Xu took a look and indeed, there was not a single bar of signal.
"This is really strange!"
Group Leader Xu took back the phone and fiddled with it for a while, still no signal.
At this point, others present also took out their phones to check the signal.
To everyone’s astonishment, no one’s phone had any signal at all!
"My phone has no signal either!"
"Mine too, not a single one!"
"This doesn’t make sense, the signal here used to be good, why did it suddenly disappear?"
"How can we report it without a signal?"
"It’s not just the phone signal that’s gone, even the WIFI is out!"
Everyone was talking anxiously.
Without a signal, everyone’s face showed signs of worry and impatience.
Seeing this, Zhao bravely offered, "Captain Fu, how about I drive to the police station?"
"Alright, then it’s up to you to make the trip!"
Captain Fu thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Just as Zhao was about to leave, he suddenly heard a sharp, piercing scream.
"Oh my God, the corpse has reanimated!"
"Help... Help me!"
The crowd turned towards the sound and saw Nurse Chief Lin pointing fearfully at the floor.
That unfortunate Nurse Chief Wang, who had been crushed by the chandelier and didn’t utter a word before dying, had inexplicably opened her eyes and was grasping Nurse Chief Lin’s ankle with her blood-stained right hand.
"Shit!"
This horrific sight outright terrified everyone.
Earlier, Dr. Kong’s unseeing, open eyes had already frightened everyone pale.
And now, Nurse Chief Wang’s reanimated corpse scene chilled everyone even more.
Fear had gripped everyone’s heart completely!
"Let go of me... let go of me, Sister Wang!"
Nurse Chief Lin tried to break free, but the dead woman’s right hand clung like an iron clamp, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t escape.
"Help me... help me!"
At this point, Nurse Chief Lin was on the verge of collapse.
She cried for help from the others.
But those around her, trembling with fear, dared not step forward to help.
"I’ll do it!"
It was Tie Xiong who stepped forward bravely.
He strode up, grabbed the deceased’s wrist, and pulled it down forcefully...
