Chapter 1200: Family and “Family”

Translator: Lonelytree

The situation was getting worse for the cursed hospital. The director in the doctor’s coat had the tables turned on him by Zhang Ya. Every Demon G.o.d was held back and the cursed cage that isolated the cursed hospital from the red city was at the edge of crumbling. Sitting amidst the mountain of bodies, the b.l.o.o.d.y hospital director finally made his move. The bodies rammed together as endless black threads crawled out from the bodies. The hospital director’s first target was not Chen Ge’s group but the director in the white coat. Before anyone could react, the threads that came out from the body already twined about the doctor’s body.

“You have already done more than you could.” Chen Ge had just said the same thing to Xiao Sun but the doctor’s ending was completely different from Xiao Sun. For the cursed hospital, those who had lost their uses were nothing but trash, completely expendable. The director pulled the doctor, whose power had been drained, into the sea of blood and the black threads jumped on the poor man like piranhas. Throughout the whole process, the doctor did not resist too much, it was as if he had already known this would happen, ultimately he would have to return to his creator. After consuming the doctor, the b.l.o.o.d.y director stood up from the throne of bones. The mountain of carca.s.ses underneath him s.h.i.+fted with each of his movement. The scary presence could not be rivalled by any of the Demon G.o.ds.

“Just a little bit. My family now it is time for you to protect me.” The b.l.o.o.d.y director waved his arms. The adults and children who only knew how to smile inside the heaven started to voluntarily move towards the sea of blood. Non smilers were the family the director created for himself, there was some kind of unique blood bond between them. This was a cursed bond, the family members could not shake them off for life, no matter how great the pain they were in, they could only smile. Everything that they did, they did because the hospital director believed only smiles deserved its place in heaven.

Without their own expression, everyone jumped into the blood sea with great smile on their faces. Their lives dissolved into strands of blood vessels. These blood vessels represented family and the bond of blood. They swam among the sea before piercing into Chen Ge’s parent’s bodies.

“The world is filled with endless pain and trail, only family can break down the defences around their heart.” The b.l.o.o.d.y director looked at the ma.s.s suicide of his whole family but there was barely a tremor of emotion in his eyes. “I really do not understand it. If you do not wish to smile, what are the purpose of you being a part of my family?’

As more blood poured into Chen Ge’s parents, the presence from the hospital director grew stronger. Using his own family members’ lives as sacrifice, he inserted the cursed blood into Chen Ge’s parents. The lingering bond to their family became the only weakness of Chen Ge’s parents. To target this weakness, the b.l.o.o.d.y director kept creating one after another family member that fitted his requirement since more than a decade out. One could say that the existence of the non smilers was for this day.

Seeing this, Chen Ge gritted his teeth. Many of the Red Spectres around him already started to attack the hospital director. The hospital director was Chen Ge’s nemesis and he was the culprit that destroyed Doctor Gao’s life, these two chairmen of the ghost stories society would not stop until they claimed his life. The large mountain of carca.s.ses was conquered by the Red Spectres. The chunks of flesh were cut down. While everyone was caught up in the bloodl.u.s.t of the battle, Xiao Sun silently slithered over to the edge of the b.l.o.o.d.y sea.

Wearing a bloodied doctor’s coat, his eyes scanned the rows of non-smilers. Finally he found a child at the corner of a room made up from dead bodies. The child was cowering under a tattered deep blue raincoat. He curled in the shadow. Even though tears ran down his face, the smile would not leave his lips.

“Found you!” Xiao Sun kicked off the broken limbs that blocked his way. He was about to run over when a strange man whose lips were cut to the bottom of his earlobs crawled out from the mountain of dead bodies.

“Doctor Sun, I hope you have not forgotten our deal.” Chen Ge had met this non-smile before. When he visited Li Wan City, he took the same last bus with Chen Ge to enter the world behind the door.

“Do not worry, my boss remember you and he often mention how you have helped him deal with the shadow at Li Wan City.” Xiao Sun picked up the boy in the blue raincoat and waved behind him. “The hospital director does not have time for you now. Try to go and save as many people as you can. The director is not your real family, it is not worth it to put your lives down for him.”

Deep inside the mountain of dead bodies, one after another non smiler changed their direction. Once a member among them started to revolt, most of them wanted to follow. Xiao Sun did not stop. He carried the child and rushed away from the mountain and ran into one of the rooms at the lowest floor which was crumbling. Kicking down the door, an unfamiliar voice came from inside the room. “Doctor Sun, is that you?”

“Chi Jian, Chi Huang Quan, quick, bring everyone with you, this place is about to collapse soon.” Doctor Sun yelled into the darkened room. Soon about 10 living humans ran out from the small room. Some of them were wearing patient’s garb, others were Chi people in hospital uniform. Even though they existed in the world behind the door, they were indeed living humans. After this batch was rescued by Xiao Sun, they followed faithfully behind him. “You guys have once helped me, so I have to keep up my end of the bargain, this is the lesson that my boss has taught me.”

Doctor Sun on Chen Ge’s side wanted to protect the good people behind the door, the hospital director wanted to kill all of his family behind the door. This scene was witnessed by many small and weak lingering spirits and souls. No one was willing to die for no reason and no spectre wished to be cursed. The amount of blood vessels in the blood sea gradually dropped. The Red Spectres and ghosts that were barely holding up the structure of the cursed hospital started to escape. None of them trusted Chen Ge but they were not willing to help the hospital director as well. While the director’s attention was otherwise distracted, they silently retreated to the edge of the building, waiting for the cursed cage to shatter so they could slip away.

Karma always come biting around.

After the hospital director realized some of the non-smilers had absconded, he pulled on his fingers lightly. Blood vessels snapped like wires. With each snip, one non-smiler collapsed to the ground. Their bodies turned into monster as black curses crawled out from their internal organs. Even in the fray of the battle, the director refused to let his own family go. Most of the non smilers stopped moving. The strongest among them appeared to have already formulated a plan with Xiao Sun. He exchanged the blood inside their bodies. Even though they were still cursed, they could still hold on.

“So this is the family I’ve been surrounding myself with? Even with the possibility of losing their lives, they want to escape the home I have personally built for me?” Seven human faces surfaced on the hospital director’s coat. They appeared to be his seven children. The seven faces wailed endlessly, they were always cursing the director. No one knew how this happened to the director, even just Xiao Sun only heard some rumors through the grapevine. Due to some twisted reason, the director had personally murdered all of his family.

The half living non smilers in the hospital were all his ‘family’ created from curse and blood. His real family resided inside his blood, becoming the source of his curse.

“The forgotten memory percolates at the deepest part of the nightmare, forming a black fog that stretches down the horizon. People always a.s.sume pain can be forgotten but pain, no, pain is always there, waiting to be seen again.” The director caressed the faces of his family members, listening to their worst curses. His eyes slowly pinned on Chen Ge. “I come from the same origin as the black fog, a complete contrast from you, I suppose. I hate everything that is good and today I will reawaken all the pain that has been forgotten.”
