Strange game designer.

Chapter 840 Substitute
Quietly taking the syringe from the table, Dr. Bu stared at Dr. Gao's neck. The soft, warm skin could be easily pierced, and with just a little force, all the medicine could be injected into his body. Then, no one would be able to threaten him anymore.

“Okay, I’ll come back at midnight.” As Dr. Gao turned around, Dr. Bu had already put the injection into his pocket. “Before I get back, you’d better not touch the people or equipment in the lab. Keep everything as it is.”

"rest assured."

"This should be the last time I ask you for help. From now on, let's just pretend we don't know each other." Dr. Gao walked towards the outside of the laboratory. "If anyone comes to ask, just say I want to join the ethics monitoring group and hope you can help me get an introduction."

"Okay." Upon hearing Dr. Gao's words, Dr. Bu could no longer conceal the murderous intent in his eyes, but his tone remained unchanged: "I will delete all information and data about you, and I don't want to have any further contact with you."

The door closed, and the footsteps faded away. Only after Dr. Gao had gone far away did Dr. Bu take out the injection, which was already soaked with his sweat.

"Wait a little longer, everything will be fine after tonight."

After putting down the injection, Dr. Bu went to the laboratory cubicle and grabbed the woman's hair, his arm like an umbilical cord that a baby could not break free from.

The woman has a deformed skull and cannot speak in complete sentences; she can only scream in fear.

"I will heal you. This is the treatment process. I'll show you what it means to be human." Dr. Bu was about to continue after tearing off the woman's clothes when Dr. Gao's last words inexplicably flashed through his mind—it's best not to mess with the people and equipment in the laboratory.

His hands stopped moving, Dr. Bu's eyes turned fierce. He looked at the closed laboratory door, and finally shoved the woman aside: "That monster, we must kill him!"

Many people were deceived by Dr. Gao's pretense, but only Dr. Bu knew how crazy he really was.

He had a morbid fascination with the brain and was once the most difficult patient the hospital director had ever encountered. After several months of treatment, the director himself fell into a deep coma.

He took over the management of the entrance to the human world from the hospital director. Patients and doctors alike thought he was gentle and kind. But how could a gentle person take such a huge risk to repeatedly engage in brain-sharing?

Each time they share a brain, it's like digging out two brains and swapping them, deeply observing each other's world. If you're not careful, you'll go crazy. No, maybe Dr. Gao has already gone crazy. He's the most seriously ill patient at the Human Entrance Hospital, but no one else has noticed, not even himself.

Wiping the cold sweat from his palms, Dr. Bu sat down in a chair and found a document full of gibberish in the safe. Only he could understand the contents, which recorded the "bits and pieces" of his time with Dr. Gao.

From the very beginning, when the dean fell into a deep coma, Dr. Bu discovered Dr. Gao's problem, but due to greed and selfishness, he chose to cooperate with Dr. Gao.

He just didn't expect that Dr. Gao was a devil in human skin. Destroying the dean's brain was only the first step, and taking control of the hospital at the entrance to the human world was just a side effect.

Seven serious incidents have occurred in Xinhu, and all of these incidents are related to Dr. Gao's family. Although they were not the instigators, they were all involved.

Dr. Bu knew all this because Dr. Gao would give him fabricated investigation results, allowing him to gain prestige and wealth by assisting Xin Hu in resolving serious incidents. That guy's specialty was manipulating and inducing patients, seemingly helping everyone find the best ending in life, but in reality, he was using the intricate threads of fate to weave a bottomless abyss.

Dr. Bu gradually fell into this trap. The gardener case was another instance of cooperation between the two sides. On the surface, Dr. Bu was rising through the ranks in the ethics supervision group, while in reality, Dr. Gao was stirring up trouble time and time again.

In fact, Dr. Bu didn't understand why Dr. Gao did this at all; that guy and his family seemed to be a bunch of naturally chaotic lunatics.

"In any case, he stepped out from behind the scenes in the gardener's case, which is a dangerous sign." Dr. Bu was no longer going to keep such evidence to accuse Dr. Gao; he wanted Dr. Gao to shut up forever and disappear from the city.

“If Dr. Gao dies, this document that exposes our secrets will only become a burden.” A moment later, Dr. Bu completely destroyed the document, leaving not even ashes behind.

……

After leaving the Institute of Ethics, Dr. Gao went to the Xinhu Police Station, intending to have a talk with Officer Xue Se.

Sitting on the cold bench in the police station, Dr. Gao was next to a drunkard who was completely drunk. Further away, two families were fighting. One family was buying radishes at the supermarket, and the other family was a radish protection organization that insisted that every radish was a friend of mankind.

The police officers were breaking up the fight, and no one paid any attention to Dr. Gao. He quietly observed the world.

The surveillance camera rotated, and just a wall away, someone was quietly watching him.

"Captain Xue, the people are here, aren't you going to see them?"

"Wait a minute, no rush." ​​Xue Se lowered her head, the table was covered with Dr. Bu's files and information: "The more I investigate Dr. Bu, the more alarmed I become. Because of the many serious incidents that have occurred in Xin Hu, the Moral Supervision Group has been expanding its power and influence. I retrieved the files and found that not only the Gardener case, but also the seven serious incidents that occurred in Xin Hu before were related to Dr. Bu."

"He was a participant?" The young police officer next to him was startled by Xue Se's deduction. Those seven heinous incidents had caused great damage to Xinhu.

“He is not only not a villain who participated in the destruction, but also a good person who has been helping us all along. How can a doctor have such a high level of awareness?” Xue Se picked up the gardener’s diary: “In the chaotic and dark world imagined by the gardener, Dr. Bu is also the only savior, the ideal god of the human spiritual world, as if he is the answer to all problems.”

“The ideal god in the eyes of a psychopathic killer is definitely not a good god.” The police officer stood respectfully to the side: “But he is a trainer of the ethics supervision team. We can’t arrest him without evidence.”

“That’s the most troublesome part. That guy knows how to use his advantages to accumulate enough trump cards for himself.” Xue Se tapped the table: “Go and invite Dr. Gao in.”

A dozen seconds later, Dr. Gao entered Xue Se's office. The soundproofing here was excellent; once the door was closed, nothing could be heard. Even if he used torture here, no one outside would know.

"Officer Xue, I went to see Dr. Bu today, and I want to join the ethics monitoring group," Dr. Gao said, getting straight to the point.

Raising an eyebrow, Xue Se looked up: "And the result?"

“Dr. Bu very enthusiastically agreed to help me make an introduction.” Dr. Gao sat down opposite Xue Se: “I also have another matter to discuss here. The forest in the city is constantly spreading and has already caused trouble for many families in Xinhu. Dr. Bu has also been worried about this recently.”

"He's also worried? Tell me more about it?"

"Dr. Bu seems to have discovered something in the heart of the forest."

“Impossible. To date, no one has ever been able to enter the heart of the forest and come out conscious.” Xue Se smiled. “I’ve investigated that area. Unless you violate the regulations of the Human Rights Committee and the Ethics Oversight Group and cut down all the ‘trees’ on the periphery, there’s no way to access the core of the forest.”
