"From then on, rumors of hauntings began to circulate in the medical building."

"Some classes were going smoothly during evening sessions when suddenly the power would go out. An electrician would be called to check, but everything would be normal. Yet, after the electrician left, the lights would mysteriously go out again."

"Also, the second specimen display room at the end of the third floor, which was clearly empty, would emit strange noises late at night. Many people have heard it."

"They recalled that the sound was like someone knocking on the glass jars containing the specimens, and..." Yuan Xiaoyi suddenly lowered her voice, clutching the hem of her clothes with both hands, her expression becoming unnatural, "and the sound was very muffled, like...like it was coming from inside the specimen jars."

"Moreover, the second specimen display room was noticeably cleaner than the other display rooms. Some students conducted an experiment, touching the specimen jars while observing the specimens, leaving fingerprints on them. But when they looked again the next night, the fingerprints had disappeared, and the specimen jars were clean, as if they had just been wiped down."

"But when they asked the teacher in charge of maintenance, the teacher said that he hadn't come at all the day before."

At this point, Yuan Xiaoyi paused. She began to breathe heavily, as if giving herself, and Jiang Cheng, time to adjust.

Jiang Cheng keenly sensed that the main event was coming.

"Senior...Senior," Yuan Xiaoyi's voice began to tremble, and she looked at Jiang Cheng and said, "Actually, there are many strange things similar to these two incidents, but what really caused panic among the students, and even the entire medical school, is what I'm about to tell you."

"Tell me, Xiaoyi," Jiang Cheng said, looking at her with encouraging eyes, nodding, "I'm listening."

"This incident also happened a long time ago, and it was told to us by Xiaoting," Yuan Xiaoyi said very seriously.

Hearing that this incident was related to Xiaoting, Jiang Cheng focused his attention, his expression becoming serious as well.

"It was a corpse dissection class, led by two professors, with more than a dozen medical students observing and taking notes. The location was the anatomy classroom on the fifth floor."

"Because this was the first time they were fully participating in a real dissection, the students were very excited and curious, and everyone arrived early."

"After the corpse was brought in, the two lead professors led everyone in bowing to the corpse, and then observing a moment of silence. This is the tradition of the dissection class, to express respect for the deceased who voluntarily donated their body, and to apologize for the damage to the body."

"It seemed that something was protecting them in the dark, and the process went surprisingly smoothly. Through this class, the students learned many things that they could not learn in theoretical classes."

"In order to maximize the effect of this class, the next day the students, led by the professor, began to review the entire dissection class based on the recorded data."

"As a result, halfway through, the classroom door was suddenly pushed open, and a teacher in work clothes rushed in."

"The teacher who rushed in looked very bad. Without saying a few words, he pulled the professor who was lecturing to the students out. The students looked through the crack in the door and saw that there were many people standing in the hallway outside, all professors and teachers from the college, and the rarely seen dean was also outside."

"The students found it very strange, because these people looked very bad, and the atmosphere was very strange, as if something terrible had happened."

"The students waited for a long time, but the professor didn't come back. Finally, an assistant teacher hurriedly ran over to inform them."

"Saying that everyone should go back first, and all recent classes were canceled. The reason was that the medical building was going to replace a batch of new equipment in the near future. Without special notice, don't come, and study in the school library."

"At first, everyone just found it strange, but later things became more and more strange. Before long, rumors spread that the two professors who participated in the dissection class that day were sick, and then the information about the two professors on the school website was also removed."

"Could there be something wrong with the dissected corpse?" Jiang Cheng asked softly.

Yuan Xiaoyi nodded. "Senior, you're right. There's not only something wrong with that corpse, but the key is...it shouldn't exist at all!"

"The corpse dissected that day was not the one prepared by the college at all. The next day, when the staff in the college were routinely inspecting the morgue, they found a bald corpse in the corner."

"This was the corpse of a young man, but what the staff couldn't understand was that according to the information they received, this corpse should have been taken away yesterday for dissection teaching."

"This was no small matter. The staff immediately called the college, but the college's reply puzzled them. The college said that the dissection class was over and the reports had been submitted."

"Could it be that the wrong corpse was taken? The staff instinctively felt that this matter was not so simple, so they immediately counted the corpses in the morgue, only to find that none of the corpses were missing."

"Now everyone panicked. The corpses were not missing, but a corpse had indeed been dissected. So who was dissected? Or rather...what was it?"

"The report went up level by level, and soon, the high-level officials of the medical school rushed over. Everyone's first reaction was to verify the remains of the corpse."

At this point, Yuan Xiaoyi explained, "The dissected corpse will not be immediately destroyed, but the useful parts will be retained and made into specimens, or used for further research."

"But when everyone rushed to the cold storage where the remains were temporarily stored, they were surprised to find that the remains had disappeared."

"No, not just disappeared, it should be said that they had never existed at all. Not a trace was left behind, and the storage location was as clean as new."

"Seeing this scene, everyone panicked. But after all, they were professors at the medical school, and they had heard some strange stories. The dean immediately ordered the first thing to do was to block the news. Before the matter was clarified, don't leak it, so as not to cause panic, and prepare to call the police."

"Second, organize the two professors who led the dissection yesterday to recall the details of the dissection, and most importantly, to draw the appearance of the dissected corpse."

"Soon, the restored portrait was completed. As a result, the deputy dean suddenly widened his eyes the moment he saw the portrait, then kicked his legs and fell headfirst from the chair."

Yuan Xiaoyi looked at Jiang Cheng and said, "The painting is of an old woman, an old lady, the one I mentioned before, the old lady with a ghost face growing out of the back of her head."

Jiang Cheng had already guessed it.

"The old lady's corpse is not in the morgue?" Although Yuan Xiaoyi had already said it, Jiang Cheng felt it was necessary to confirm.

"No." Yuan Xiaoyi's tone became strange, "Her corpse was disposed of many years ago, and the one who performed the surgery was...was the deputy dean."

"No wonder." Jiang Cheng could imagine the psychological shadow of the deputy dean at the time.

"And it is said that part of this old lady's remains have been preserved and are still in the medical school building," Yuan Xiaoyi finally said.
