Chapter 68 Sneaking Into the Psychiatric Hospital

I pursed my l*ps, wondering if Benett would send Sophia to this place.

After taking a deep breath, 1 said, “Uncle Marcus, can we get the police to help me take a look inside? I’m worried Benett has changed Sophia’s identity and sent her in.”

It was not that I was overthinking, but if someone with a slight mental illness was sent to such a place, the outcome might not be good. After all, after facing a group of severely ill people for a long time, the doctors‘ patience might be limited, and they might often resort to making the patients take more sedatives. Over time, even a normal person might develop issues, let alone someone who was already not that normal.

Uncle Marcus paused for a moment on the other end of the phone and said, “I’m afraid that’s not possible. I’ve asked the police station over there, and they’ve already screened the place. Moreover, that hospital doesn’t just admit anyone. They only take in those who have been diagnosed with severe conditions.”

It seemed that taking the police route was not feasible.

After hanging up with Uncle Marcus, I looked at the over–two–meter–high wall and had an idea.

I thought about climbing over and was about to do just that when my phone rang. It was Maxwell calling.

Answering the call, I was somewhat impatient. “What is it?” His call at this moment was really disrupting my plans.

“Where are you?” Maxwell’s voice came from the other end, sounding quite serious.

“Outside the Southern City Psychiatric Hospital…” I replied, looking up at the two–meter–high wall, wondering how best to climb ic

There was a pause on the other end before he said, “Yvette, don’t tell me you’re thinking of climbing over the wall?”

I was surprised and asked, “No… Wait, how’d you know…”

“I was with Uncle Marcus just now. I heard everything you asked him. I’m warning you, don’t be rash. There are sick people Inside, and sneaking in could be dangerous.” Maxwell sounded somewhat agitated, making it seem as if entering a psychiatric hospital was akin to suicide.

I pursed my l*ps and paused before saying, “I’ll take care of myself. I just want to go in and see if Sophia is inside. Besides, this place is legitimate. If anything happens and it gets noisy, the doctors will surely help me.”

Besides, since the patients inside were all severely ill, that could only mean they were all locked up, so I should be fine inside. After saying this, I did not wait for the person on the other end of the line to continue talking before I hung up the phone. After walking around the hospital, I fik spot in the wall. Fortunately, I had been wearing flat shoes these past few days while pretending to be pregnant, which now made it easier for me.

Avoiding the electric fence, I climbed to the top of the wall. Then, on the other side, the wall was covered with sharp thomy. vegetation. It was no wonder this spot looked easier to climb from the outside. If I had jumped down, I would have been bausy scratched by the thorns.

With no choice, I looked around from the top of the wall and found a pile of construction debris in a corner not too far away. It was somewhat dirty and messy, but at least not as dangerous.

Thus, I successfully entered the hospital

The hospital was located in the suburbs, covering a large area with several buildings, making it hard to distinguish one from another. I decided to sneak around inside. Strangely, despite it being such a large place, there were almost no people moving around, only a few doctors occasionally pushing a medicine cart into a building.

“Doctor Miller, it doesn’t look like 030’s condition is that serious. She’ll be alright if we give her this much medication, right?” As I was about to enter a building, I almost ran into doctors coming out.

Hearing their voices, I quickly hid behind a nearby iron door.

The two doctors continued their conversation as they walked. An older doctor casually responded to the other’s question, saying, “It’s fine, there won’t be any problems. The people sent here are already given up on. Even if something happens, no one will come here to make trouble.”

Right”

Their voices gradually faded away, and I came out from behind the iron door and headed toward the building.

The building had many wards, all of which were locked.

Each door had only a number and a small window, with an iron gate welded in front of the wooden door, both tightly locked.

As I had thought, since they were all severely mentally ill patients, the security was very tight.

Unable to confirm if Sophia was inside and not wanting to make too much noise, I decided to peek through the small windows of each ward

The patients inside were bizarre. Some made strange noises like animals, some talked to themselves continuously, others were n*ked, struggling in despair, some even roared like wild beasts, and a few were gnawing on raw meat.

After going around, I was terrified and even felt nauseous, Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

After searching extensively, I still did not see Sophia, which made me start to wonder whether I had made a mistake.

Suddenly, a voice rang out, “Who are you?” I jumped, startled.
