Chapter 495: Chapter 251 Bedlam Asylum Journal (Part 2)_2 Chapter 495: Chapter 251 Bedlam Asylum Journal (Part 2)_2 “I understand… Let guess, the reason you were caught must be ‘excessive paranoia’.”
“Is that so?” Ke Yinzhi tilted her head slightly.
“What else could it be?”
“That’s it. No wonder I was caught as a lunatic.” Ke Yinzhi scratched her chin.
“Generally, ntal patients are not aware of their illness, they say, it looks like we’re in the sa boat.”
“What illness do you have then?”
“They said I am a hidden paranoid, unwilling to believe what I say, pinning labels on , and by the ti I realized it, I was already here.”
...
“You don’t look it. You are quite calm, not like a ntally ill person.”
“Aren’t you the sa? I told you, most ntal patients cannot see that they are ill.”
Fan Quan said calmly, then changed the subject, “Actually, I also have OCD, and it’s quite severe.”
“That’s good…” Ke Yinzhi raised an eyebrow, talking casually, “Better than the last ti I ca here. I encountered a patient who piled his feces on the bed and threw it at , nearly driving to the brink. Did you know… I’m actually a fragile person, and sotis to protect my fragile heart, I have to use so extre asures.”
“Did you kill him?”
“It ended up with him swallowing his own feces.”
“Anyway, people who defecate in their own beds are indeed terrifying…” said Fan Quan.
“Right, this hospital has all sorts of patients.”
“C-108, C-109, get along well with each other.” Ke Mingye said in a hoarse and cold voice, then he retreated to the outside of the ward.
He leaned against the iron door of the ward, pretending to play with his phone, chatting on the player panel with Fan Quan.
[Failed Man: I’m asking because I don’t understand, what exactly is going on?]
[Fan Quan: You’re his brother, who else am I supposed to ask?]
[Fan Quan: But I can guess, he must be disguised as a patient on a mission for the Managent Bureau. His goal should be the sa as ours: to root out TK from the asylum.]
[Failed Man: Anyway, just watch out for yourself, my brother seems not to have realized it’s us yet, there’s still ti to save the situation. Let’s not bother finding that darn TK, I will co and take you away at noon, let’s et Ju Zipi and then escape.]
[Fan Quan: Since we’re already here and your brother just arrived at the Bedlam Asylum, the information we have is the sa. Maybe I can find TK before he does.]
[Failed Man: If you could really do that, then you would already have beco a legend in the Managent Bureau.]
After sending this ssage, Ke Mingye knew he could not hesitate any longer, as it might arise suspicion.
Thus, he turned and walked out of the ward, slamming the heavy tal door shut.
The tal door fra slowly closed, accompanied by a thudding sound, confining Fan Quan and the black-haired European youth, played by Ke Yinzhi, inside the ward, with the last beams of light blocked by the door. Curses and wails occasionally ca from other wards in the corridor.
Ke Mingye stood outside the door, turned his head towards the two inside and said: “Both of you are new patients, I’ll take you to the cafeteria for breakfast at six in the morning and show you the card room and the library, rest for now.”
After that, Ke Mingye walked away without looking back.
When he reached the end of the floor and stepped into the elevator, he opened the chat panel and sent a ssage to Fan Quan.
[Failed Man: Ah… rest in peace, intellectual, I will miss you.]
At this mont inside the ward,
Ke Yinzhi sat silently against the wall, his head bowed, continuing to read.
After a mont, he gently yawned, closed the book, leaned the back of his head against the wall of the ward, and glanced sideways at Fan Quan, who was ditating on the bed, recalling his information.
Regarding his new roommate, the Managent Bureau’s database described him as follows: C-109, Gu Zhenning, this patient was sent to Bedlam Asylum believing he could practice Qigong. He deceived quite a few people in small rural towns in China.
In an era of superhumans like now, where people have seen all sorts of demons and spirits, the concept of paranormal abilities is no longer strange. After all, superheroes and magical girls are common sights on TV. Even in rural areas, tricking people isn’t as easy as in the past.
Those villagers believed him because the phenonon of “Qigong” really did spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred. Eventually, the issue grew bigger, claiming the entire mountain village had learned Qigong, and they even wanted to establish a Qigong clan from this generation onward.
The Managent Bureau had no choice but to send soone to investigate and found that Gu Zhenning was actually a superhuman who could control airflow and could pass his ability on like sowing seeds to those he had physical contact with, thus resulting in the phenonon of transmission from person to person.
But this transmission phenonon could only last less than a week. In order to preemptively halt any risk before any dangerous incidents occurred, the Managent Bureau found a reason to arrest Gu Zhenning on the spot.
Initially, the Managent Bureau charged him with “abuse of superhuman power” and sent him to the Superhuman Prison.
