Blind Spots in Surveillance
墨書 Inktalez
I had always believed that in this hospital, equipped with nearly a thousand surveillance cameras, nothing could escape my eyes. Until that midnight, when I saw a familiar face flash across the monitor, I realized how wrong I was.
It was the face of a "dead" person.
Just two hours earlier, I had witnessed her Death Report being sent to the Morgue. Yet now, she was wearing a white coat, pushing a Surgical Cart, slowly approaching from the end of the corridor on Underground Level Three.
The Surveillance Time read: 03:33:00.
My hands trembled on the keyboard. The screen in front of me was divided into 48 small windows, each displaying different corners of the hospital. But my gaze was fixed on the lower right corner—Corridor B3.
Doctor Zhang Yingxue, no, I should say the "body" of Doctor Zhang Yingxue, was moving forward along the dimly lit corridor. Her steps were slow yet remarkably steady. The creaking sound of the Surgical Cart's wheels came through the audio of the surveillance system, sending chills down my spine.
I immediately pulled up footage from other angles, trying to find a clearer view. But strangely, apart from this camera, all other angles showed nothing but an empty corridor.
03:33:01
My mind raced. The investigations of the past three months flashed through my mind like slides:
- The mysterious disappearance of Nurse Xiao Lin
- Abnormal data from ICU patients
- Irregular entry and exit records from the underground parking lot
- And that eerie time repeating at 3:33 AM...
03:33:02
I saw Doctor Zhang stop in front of a metal door. It was a door I knew very well—because just twelve hours ago, I had cracked its access system and uncovered the horrifying truth hidden behind it.
At that moment, I noticed a red dot flashing in the lower right corner of the screen. This was a special marker I had set up to indicate that the footage might have been tampered with. As an experienced Surveillance Room Administrator, I knew all too well what this meant.
03:33:03
I quickly typed commands on the keyboard to pull up the backend data. Sure enough, the surveillance footage from the past 72 hours had been manipulated. Tracing the IP address led directly to the terminal in the Hospital Director's office.
Suddenly, I heard footsteps behind me.
Those steady, firm, and chilling footsteps.
Just like the footsteps of Doctor Zhang in the surveillance footage at that moment.
I spun around sharply and saw a familiar face.
"Captain Chen, I knew you would be here," the Director said with a smile. "It seems you've uncovered quite a few things you shouldn't have."
Behind him stood two security guards, holding not standard batons but surgical knives.
03:33:04
I finally understood the whole truth. Why there was a three-minute blind spot in the surveillance every day at this time, why patients had mysteriously died during this period, and why Doctor Zhang appeared in the footage after his death...
All the clues pointed to a terrifying answer.
And now, I would become part of that answer.
