Inside a sickroom not far away, Gu Jun saw Chen Wenwei's friend, the patient called Mai Lei. Mai Lei was also a young man at twenty-five years old. He was seated on the bed facing the window. The muscles all over his body were shivering slightly. His facial muscles had seriously contracted. His eyes sunk deeply into their sockets, his eyeballs were bloodshot, and his gaze appeared to be staring into the edge of madness.
"Nightmare Illness advances quickly," Prof Qin added. "Mai Lei was infected after reading a post online. He saw it six days earlier than Chen Wenwei, but he was already now in the illness' middle state. Many of his symptoms are similar to multiple system atrophy (MSA)."
