Chapter 26

The Inpatient Department was packed. Some of the patients were not assigned to a hospital room, and they had no choice but to sleep In the hallway. A majority of them, who had been in the hospital for a long time, were severely ill. They had been around when I was admitted to the hospital, and they were still here when I was discharged. As I walked along the hallway, I saw some familiar faces.

An elderly man asked, "Weren't you discharged? Why are you in the hospital again?"

"Well, I fell down the stairs a few days ago," I said honestly. After all, I wanted to know if any of them witnessed or caught the incident on camera, but I couldn't tell them everything either.

"The staircase was slippery; I think somebody did something to it. I wanted to see if any security cameras may have records of the culprit or if anybody accidentally filmed it."

The old man advised, "Security cameras? There's one in the hallway. You should be able to check the footage in the security room." "Okay, thanks! I'll check it out now," I said happily. The security footage would make everything much easier.

People rarely used the stairway in the Inpatient Department; it was silent. Meanwhile, the place where I once fell had been cleaned, and no trace of blood could be seen.
