This actor is full of tricks.

The door to room number 3 was ajar. After reminding Lin Jue, Zhao Yin quietly pushed the door open and gently went inside.

“Generally speaking, we should proactively inquire about the patient’s condition, but now that she has been given a sedative, her current feelings are not her true mental state. This section can be filled in with our observations and notes.”

Lin Jue followed Zhao Yin into the ward. The ward lights were on, casting a warm orange hue. The walls weren't as white as they were outside, but rather had a touch of blue-green, colors that help to soothe the mind.

There were only two beds in the ward. The bed near the bathroom was empty, while a woman was lying on the bed near the window.

The woman's hair was disheveled, her eyes were tightly closed, and she didn't look well. Even after being given a sedative, she was still anxious.

"His physical characteristics are normal, but his mental state definitely needs to be reassessed." Zhao Yin glanced at the physical examination chart hanging by the bed and copied the latest data from the chart into his own record sheet.

Lin Jue walked over to the woman and began to carefully observe her face.

Although the features of the patient differed from those of the woman on the dark street, the general outline was still discernible. Considering that the woman might have had her face altered, Lin Jue was certain that this patient was the woman he had encountered on the dark street.

"The timeline of this script should be quite early. Back then, this woman hadn't yet turned into that inhuman, ghost-like creature. Judging from the clothes Dr. Zhao and the nurse are wearing, it should be autumn or winter now."

To confirm the timeline of the script, Lin Jue walked over to Zhao Yin and watched him register the information. Zhao Yin clearly wrote October 30, 2023 in the date field.

Almost a year earlier, at this point in time, the hospital had not yet experienced any riots, and Qin Lang was still conducting bizarre experiments on humans.

Moreover, its predecessor was located in this hospital!

"Is this really just a memory or an experience? Is it possible that, like in the past life's memories, things that weren't experienced will turn into a chaotic fog? If I go to other places, will I be able to see what happened at this point in time?"

"Or is this just an illusion created by Qin Lang knowing I was here?"

Lin Jue quietly walked to the window and looked outside.

From the window, you can see the hospital's central square, and cars leaving the parking lot drive through the gates and into the distant night.

The outline of Sanjiang city was still visible in the night sky, with lights flickering and twinkling. Everything felt incredibly real, not like a memory or experience, but more like he had traveled through time and space and taken over Xiangyang's body in 2023.

"Xiao Xiang!" Zhao Yin was already a little annoyed by Lin Jue's little actions. This intern doctor had been absent-minded since he started working, and he wasn't studying seriously. He had been wandering around since he entered the ward.

How can a doctor who lacks a serious attitude towards learning save lives in the future?

"Excuse me, Dr. Zhao, I feel a bit stuffy and would like to open the window." Lin Jue apologized quickly and walked back to Zhao Yin's side.

He hadn't figured out the situation yet, so he could only operate under Xiangyang's identity for the time being. "The weather is cool now, and the cold wind might irritate the patients. Don't do anything rashly," Zhao Yin said with a frown. Then he sighed and shook his head. "You're still young. Don't be so impetuous. You still have a lot to learn. Since you've joined the medical profession, you must uphold the spirit of being humble and eager to learn. Otherwise, you're destined not to go far."

"I understand, Dr. Zhao." Lin Jue lowered his head humbly, but his eyes glanced at the woman on the hospital bed.

He didn't know when, but the woman had opened her eyes, her pupils, which were smaller than normal, were staring at him fiercely.

Their eyes met, and Lin Jue suddenly shouted, "Dr. Zhao, be careful!"

After shouting, he shoved Zhao Yin beside him. At the same time, the woman on the hospital bed rushed over: "Doctor! Doctor! Please look at my hands, my hands feel like they're going to rot!"

"Can I have your hand? Just this once, just this once!"

The woman was disheveled and looked like she had gone mad. Originally, her target was Zhao Yin, but now that Zhao Yin had been pushed away by Lin Jue, her target had become Lin Jue. She grabbed Lin Jue's arm with both hands, her nails almost digging into his skin, as if she wanted to tear his arm off.

Lin Jue kicked the woman in the stomach, sending her staggering back a few steps.

"My strength." He frowned. Logically speaking, his kick should have sent the woman flying, but he clearly felt that his strength had weakened considerably, to about the same level as an ordinary adult male.

Before he could even think, the woman pounced on him again, acting like a madwoman, like a zombie that had caught the scent of a living person.

Lin Jue hurriedly dodged to the side, and taking advantage of the woman's missed attack, he kicked her hard in the back, knocking her over. He then straddled her and slapped her twice across the face: "Wake up!"

“I am the doctor who treated you, not someone you should attack. If you don’t wake up, I will have to use my own methods to bring you to your senses.”

If a woman doesn't obey his orders, he doesn't mind giving her a good beating.

The woman was in such a state that she couldn't listen to anything Lin Jue was saying. Even though Lin Jue was pinning her down, she was still scratching and biting. Lin Jue didn't hold back at all. He grabbed a kettle of boiling water from the ground and pretended to smash it on the woman's head.

"What are you doing!" Hearing the commotion, the nurse rushed in, quickly gave the woman a sedative injection, and then shoved Lin Jue away: "You're a doctor, how can you treat a patient like this?"

Lin Jue showed his arm to the nurse, where several purplish-blue fingernail marks were clearly visible: "Don't you want to see what she did to me? If it weren't for me, Dr. Zhao would have been injured by her!"

Only then did Dr. Zhao, still shaken, react, his expression extremely unnatural: "Xiao Xiang, even if you were trying to protect yourself, you should have used a gentler approach instead of treating the patient so roughly. This is very detrimental to the patient's recovery."

“Dr. Zhao, some disobedient patients deserve special treatment. I have a friend who is also a doctor, and those disobedient patients became very obedient after being 'trained' by him. It's impossible for them to behave like this.” Lin Jue shook his head: “As a doctor, the duty is to treat and save lives, but that's not a reason to be attacked by patients. Dr. Zhao, you're too kind. I can pass on my friend's medical principles to you in the future.” (End of Chapter)
