Phantom of the Anatomy Building

Summary: This story is purely fictional.

The weather at the end of February turned from warm to cold, and the provincial capital city C was still shrouded in a cold air. Although the branches of the willow trees on the roadside were beginning to turn green, goose-yellow spores were blooming all over the branches, showing Early spring has arrived. But people were still bundled up and had not yet taken off their winter clothes, and there were very few people on the streets. However, Chengnan H Medical University, which was originally deserted, suddenly broke the silence of ten years. It was crowded and bustling, and the faces of cheerful young men and women brought joy and vitality to the place. This was the early spring of 1978, the first spring of enrollment after the resumption of the college entrance examination. Although tomorrow, March 1st, is the day for new students to register, the school has begun to arrange the admission of new students in the past two days. Staff from each department have organized banners and slogans to welcome new students, and road signs have been set up to guide the registration locations for new students in each department. In addition, many students I have already arrived at the school to familiarize myself with the environment, so it seems extremely lively.

Liu Qing, Yuan Wenwen and Chen Xu arrived in the provincial capital yesterday. They are all from T County and were admitted to H Medical University at the same time. T County is located in the eastern suburbs of the provincial capital, more than 200 kilometers away from the provincial capital. This time the college entrance examination resumed, T County got six top scorers. In addition to the three of them, two others passed the Normal College and another one passed the College of Finance and Economics. Because the three of them were in the same school, after contacting each other, they agreed to go to school together. Yesterday morning, the three of them took a long-distance bus before seven o'clock in the morning. It was a bumpy journey until they arrived at the provincial capital at more than five o'clock in the afternoon. It was getting late, so they randomly found a hotel to stay.

None of the three of them had ever traveled far, and it was naturally their first time to go to the provincial capital. Needless to say, they were in a happy and joyful mood, and they felt novel about everything. As soon as it got light, they got up, washed up, and ate porridge and steamed buns at the breakfast shop outside. Then they braved the thick fog and cold to find their way to the Medical University. Since there is no map, I can only ask as I walk which bus to take and which bus to transfer to. Chen Xu is a boy, so he will naturally be the one to ask for directions. After many twists and turns, they finally arrived at the gate of H Medical University at ten o'clock in the morning. The spacious gate was very impressive, with the name of H Medical University written across the top. It seemed that the school name had been written recently, and the calligraphy handwriting was strong. Chic and unrestrained. The school gate was open and no one was guarding it. Vehicles came and went from time to time. Many freshmen like them came in and out of the campus in an endless stream.

The three of them entered the campus along with the crowd. They walked along a spacious concrete avenue. The towers on both sides were beautiful, neat and green, adding greenery to the campus. The tall ginkgo trees are hanging with sparse yellow leaves, dancing in the early spring wind, adding a beautiful scenery to the campus. The campus is very large. According to the campus introduction, it covers an area of ??more than 2,500 acres. Bamboo groves, camphor groves and other evergreen trees everywhere make the campus look like spring all year round, and the chirping of birds is clear and sweet. The campus is criss-crossed by roads, all of which are neat concrete roads, and there are also stone paths leading to secluded places. They walked along the road sign to the registration point for the Department of Medicine, and found the place where the eighth teaching building was written hidden in a ginkgo forest. This is an antique old-fashioned building, mostly made of wood. The two large wooden pillars hugged by two people at the main entrance are painted vermilion, showing its solemnity and grandeur. The registration point for the Department of Medicine is located here. After that, they followed the signs for registration of the Pharmacy Department and saw the Sixth Teaching Building in a place where plum blossoms were blooming. It was a brick-concrete structure built in the 1960s, with four floors. Spacious and bright, Chen Xu’s registration point is here.

After finding the registration location, the three of them continued to familiarize themselves with the campus environment. They followed the east-side path and passed two small arch bridges. In front of them was a lotus pond with a rockery in the pond and some Small mottled bamboo and Dripping Water Guanyin, new lotuses have not yet grown in the water, only some remnants of last year's lotuses are seen floating on the water. The water is very clear, and some red fish can be faintly seen swimming slowly. There are clusters of bamboo trees beside the pool, which is very quiet and a good place to read. Walking around the lotus pond and walking forward, there is an open sports field. The football field and track covered with weeds looks like it has not been used for a long time. It can be seen that several basketball courts have newly replaced basketball stands, and some horizontal and parallel bars are also newly added. Volleyball courts, badminton courts, open-air cement table tennis tables, sand pits for high jump and long jump, etc. are all available. To the south of the sports ground is a peach forest, and flower buds have begun to appear on the peach branches. Passing through the peach forest, they traveled south again. Along the way, various unknown flowers and plants came into view, which were extremely beautiful.

In a place where magnolia flowers were blooming, they saw the school library. The library was also an ancient building with double eaves and three ridged roofs. It was covered with glazed tiles, with dragons and phoenixes carved on the eaves and corners, and columns, arches, beams, doors and windows. Painted with vermilion paint. There are dozens of white magnolia and pink magnolia flowers on both sides of the library door. They are in full bloom, like patches of white clouds and rosy clouds, carrying bursts of fragrance with the wind. Going deeper is the botanical garden of the Department of Pharmacy, where some unknown Chinese medicinal materials are planted. Next to the botanical garden is the experimental building of the Department of Pharmacy and a small pharmaceutical factory.

They didn’t know how long they had been walking, but they felt their stomachs growling with hunger and saw that it was already past twelve noon. It seemed that they couldn't finish the campus tour in a short while, and there would be plenty of time to wander around in the future, so the three of them walked around the campus and went to the streets to find a place to have lunch. In the afternoon, the three of them wandered around the bustling urban area for two hours, and then returned to the hotel where they lived.

After breakfast the next day, the three of them carried their suitcases and followed the familiar route to the campus. Liu Qing and Yuan Wenwen went to the Department of Medicine to register, and Chen Xu went to the Department of Pharmacy to register. After signing up, they were temporarily arranged to live in a building on the west side of the school. The specific dormitory will not be fixed until the classes are divided into classes.

The two-day registration period passed quickly. Since this was the first enrollment after ten years of catastrophe, the teachers and teaching equipment may not be in place. There were less than 700 students enrolled in such a large college. The Department of Medicine has enrolled more than 400 freshmen in the first class, divided into three middle classes, one middle class and three small classes, and nine small classes in the first class, with more than 40 people in each small class. The Department of Pharmacy has recruited two small classes, one in the Department of Dentistry and one in the Department of Forensic Medicine. Since there has been no enrollment for ten years, the resumption of the college entrance examination also includes high school students before the Cultural Revolution. Therefore, the age gap is huge, mainly in the medical department. Therefore, the school specially compiled a Big Brothers and Big Sisters class for the medical department, Class 9. Liu Qing and Yuan Wenwen were not placed in the same class. Yuan Wenwen was placed in Class 3, and Liu Qing was placed in Class 6. Liu Qing made two requests to the grade counselor to be placed in the same class as Yuan Wenwen, but both requests were rejected. Both were disappointed.

The student dormitory is on the west side of the campus. The male dormitory is a brick-concrete structure building built in the early 1960s. It has four floors, with twenty rooms on each floor. The dormitory building has only one door. The stairs and gate are in the middle of the dormitory building. Go up the stairs after entering the gate. The two rooms on the left and right of the first floor of the gate are the reception room and the security room, which are manned 24 hours a day. The dormitories are on both sides of the corridor, bounded by stairs, with ten rooms on the left and right, and a washroom and toilet at the west end of each floor. The entire dormitory building has been repainted inside and outside, and the windows have been reinstalled. It seems quite tidy. Each dormitory is about 20 square meters and has four steel student beds with bunk beds for eight students. There are two rows of long tables back to back in the middle of the room, four in a row, and each table is equipped with a separate stool. The table has two drawers and a small standing cabinet on the left for students to study. There were four fluorescent tubes and two ceiling fans on the top of the room, which were considered relatively good conditions at the time.

The girls' dormitory is located in the girls' courtyard, about 100 meters to the right of the boys' dormitory. It is separated by an avenue and a playground. The playground is covered with green grass, has two basketball courts and a badminton court, and there are also There are some fitness facilities such as horizontal bars and parallel bars. The girls' courtyard is surrounded by a wall more than two meters high. There are two iron gates on the front, and the entrance is the reception room and the security room. There are three buildings in the courtyard that are the same as the boys' dormitory, arranged in an n-shape. Their facilities and layout are basically the same as the boys' dormitory. Several white magnolias are in bloom in the courtyard, and two osmanthus trees and several camphor trees have lush leaves, shading the dormitory building. Liu Qing and Yuan Wenwen both live on the second floor of the same dormitory.

Not far from the front left side of the Girls' Campus is the student cafeteria, which is also a brick-and-wood structure building built in the 1960s. The cafeteria hall is about 500 square meters, with a brick-concrete structure over three meters high below and equipped with large glass windows. The two-meter-high herringbone wooden beams above are covered with small green tiles, making it airy, spacious and bright. There are dozens of cement tables and stools in the hall, which can accommodate hundreds of people dining at the same time.

The two weeks of entrance education and political study passed quickly, and the medical courses gradually got on track. Classes and group activities in the Department of Medicine are held in middle classes, with one counselor per middle class. Because of Liu Qing's active personality, she quickly got to know the forty-five classmates in the class and was elected as the monitor of Class 6. Yuan Wenwen is an introvert. Apart from being familiar with a few classmates in her dormitory, she still doesn't know half of her classmates.

She often came to see Liu Qing. When she didn't know anyone very well, fellow villager Liu Qing seemed to become her support.
