Part 7 : Wait
Doctor Jerry opened
the archive room and locked the door again. It should be safe there, because
there weren't any windows or vents large enough to fit a man. They holed up in
the staff room and waited for the rescue team.
“Is there really nothing
we can do except wait ? My brain will rot soon. “ Said Doctor Jerry.
“Let’s just sleep it
off. The rescue team should take about 2 hours. We can wait.” Said Doctor
Peter. So they slept.
After just 15 minutes,
they heard a loud bang on the door.
“What’s that ? Peter,
wake up !”
“What is it, Jerry ?
That guy’s here ?”
“I'm not sure. I heard
a loud sound. Maybe someone trying to get in ! Let’s check it !”
“Okay. Let’s just grab
something for protection.”
Doctor Jerry grabbed a
very thick and sturdy folder and Doctor Peter grabbed a phonebook. They were
closing in the door when it suddenly opened from outside. BOOM !
“Something went
through the door ! It’s a man !”
“Take him down !”
Both of them jumped to
the man and held him tight.
“It’s me ! It’s me !
Get off !” It was Doctor Tom.
“Tom ! Where have you
been ? What happened to you ?” Asked Doctor Jerry.
“After I gave the med
to the intern kid, I thought it would be wise to come and help you. So I
searched for you. Then someone knocked me out and locked me in your office,
Peter. When I wake up, I just smashed through the door, but then this guy
chased me ! He had a gun in his hand ! I ran and now I'm here. I guess I could
hide here, but you were inside. That’s that.”
“Really ? That
mysterious guy have my key ? And now he is up and running ? Damn it !” Said
Doctor Peter.
“Now, we need to hide.
We need to stay calm and avoid that guy.” Said Doctor Jerry. “Let’s get into
the staff room and lock the door.”
They hid there for the
next 15 minutes until Doctor Peter saw something he didn't expect. A wig. Black
hair. It was on Doctor Tom’s lab coat. Doctor Peter got extremely suspicious.
“Hey Tom, you did see
the guy with the knife, right ?”
“Of course. I didn't
recognize him though.”
“What was he like ?
His hair ? His face ?“
“Why are you asking
that now, Peter ? We need to be completely silent !” Said Doctor Jerry in a
soft voice.
“Maybe the guy we saw
doesn't work alone. Maybe Tom saw his
friend. We need to know that.”
“Well, he wore a
glasses so I didn't see his face clearly. He wore a lab coat, our lab coat. His
hair is black, I think.” Answered Doctor Tom.
“That’s definitely the
guy we saw. So, he is alone.” Said Doctor Jerry.
Suddenly, Doctor Peter
snatched the wig from Doctor Tom’s coat’s pocket and held it high. A pair of
glasses also fell from the pocket.
“Explain this, Tom !
Explain yourself !” Doctor Peter shouted.
“What ? What’s that ?
I don’t know that !”
“That is definitely
the guy’s glasses ! I can’t forget it ! Tom, how could you-“
“That’s not mine ! I
don’t know why it’s here !”
“Shut up, Tom ! And
stay down !”
“I'm not what you
think ! Calm down !”
“Sorry, Tom.” Said
Doctor Jerry as he hit Doctor Tom’s head hard with a phonebook. “That will keep
him down for a while.”
“I never thought he
was the guy until I saw the wig ! Damn ! I didn't expect this !”
“Let’s just lock him
here. He can’t get out of this room without the keys.”
“Good idea. Let’s go
now.” Said Doctor Peter as he locked the door.
