[00:15.90]Late Night Emergency
[00:31.68]深夜急诊
[00:41.47]I finally found Flossie, one of the night nurses,
[00:45.48]told her what was going on,
[00:47.79]and asked her to come with me downstairs.
[00:50.26]We went down there, turned on all the lights in the old wing,
[00:54.88]and went to the room where I thought I'd seen the girl.
[00:59.46]She wasn't there!
[01:01.20]And there wasn't a drop of blood anywhere on that floor!
[01:05.66]Okay, I figured I'd panicked
[01:08.62]and made a mistake about which room.
[01:11.81]Flossie and I moved down to the next room,
[01:15.25]the one right next to the one where I thought I'd seen the girl.
[01:20.32]The door wouldn't open at first
[01:22.19]- something heavy was blocking it.
[01:25.01]Turned out it was a stack of file boxes left there
[01:29.03]during the big house cleaning
[01:32.01]when they were phasing out our emergency room.
[01:35.98]But it was pretty clear that no one but me
[01:39.30]and Flossie had been in that room for a week or two,
[01:43.49]if not longer.
[01:45.47]Flossie and I searched the rest of the rooms
[01:48.22]up and down that hall,
[01:50.14]and we never did find that girl, or anything else.
[01:54.37]After about ten minutes of this,
[01:56.50]Flossie gave me a short but blistering 1 scolding
[02:00.26](seasoned with her one pet expletive)
[02:02.75]and went back upstairs
[02:04.18]to whatever it was she normally did around there.
[02:07.69]To this day, I'm not sure I can explain what happened.
[02:11.96]I don't live in the same state anymore,
[02:15.04]but that building is still there,
[02:17.16]only now some of my old buddies 2 tell me
[02:20.09]it's been remodeled into apartments.
[02:23.17]I wonder if the people living there
[02:25.43]have any late-night emergencies
[02:27.66]like the one I encountered 25 years ago.
