"Did they hide in a hospital room?"
Pu Guangrong's expression turned serious. "Did anyone see which room they went into?"
Before the young officer could answer, he waved to the other officers, signaling them to stay alert.
"I'm not sure. Some said Room 6019, while others said the one next door..."
The young officer hadn't finished speaking when another officer called out and interrupted him.
"Captain Pu, over here."
The officer stood guard outside Room 6020, hesitating to go in. One hand was still on the gun at his waist, ready for any potential danger.
Pu Guangrong hurried to the doorway and reached in to turn on the light.
He frowned at the sight inside. "Two more dead. What exactly is going on?"
He still couldn't understand why the killer had chosen to come to a hospital and go on a killing spree.
If this was simply revenge against society, why choose a place like a hospital?
Besides, from what he knew so far, this series of murders clearly couldn't have been carried out by just one or two people.
The police had only just arrived and hadn't put up a cordon yet. The corridor was packed with patients and their families. Though they didn't dare get too close, there was no way a few officers could stop their curiosity.
"How awful. Tsk, tsk."
"I heard Sister Wang saw the killer?"
"Yeah, she lives across the hall. I think her son saw him too, right?"
"Come on, that woman's always making things up. She wouldn't have the guts to look at the killer."
Inside the room, Pu Guangrong irritably took a deep drag on his cigarette, then tossed the stub to the floor and ground it out.
"Put up the cordon right away. Get the civilians back to their rooms.
