Chapter 1
夏の暑さが猛威を振るう季節。
浜海市人民病院では、陸晨が汗だくになりながら忙しく働いていた。
今日中に承認書類と報告書を整理して、副院長に提出しなければならない。
就職して間もない実習生として、こんな良いポジションを得られたのだから、少しのミスも許されないと彼は思っていた。
古いエアコンがシーシーと音を立てる中、陸晨は汗を一拭いし、壁に掛かった時計を見た。
二時半!
副院長が出勤する時間だ。
彼は整理した書類を手に、副院長のオフィスのドアの前に来た。
ノックしようとした瞬間、オフィスの中から低い喘ぎ声が聞こえてきた。
すりガラス越しに中を覗くと、オフィス内で二つの人影が重なり合って揺れているのが薄ぼんやりと見えた。
世間を知る陸晨は、中で何が行われているか想像するまでもなかった。
「胡……院長、私……仕事のこと、正式採用……してもらえますか?」
そのとき、部屋の中から女性の断続的な声が聞こえてきた。
「安心しろ、任せておけ、必ず正式採用にしてやるからな!」
胡副院長がハアハアと息を切らしながら言った。
「じゃあ、院長、ありがとう……」
女性は明らかに上機嫌で、さらに没頭していった。
陸晨は少し呆然とした。
白昼堂々とオフィスで男女の関係を持つとは、この副院長の度胸も大したものだ。
ただ、この女性の声がどこか聞き覚えがあるような…?
そのとき、部屋の中からまた会話が聞こえてきた。
「ナナ、君は本当に美しい。もう一回やろうよ!」
「ダメよ、もうすぐ陸晨が来ちゃうわ。見られたら困るもの。夜にホテルで、あなたの好きにさせてあげるから!」
「あいつが?見られたってどうってことないさ。ここじゃ俺が一番偉いんだ。もし余計なことを言ったら、産婦人科に男性看護師として異動させてやる!」
「プッ!副院長ったら、意地悪ね!あの役立たずを産婦人科の男性看護師にしたら、彼、艶福にありつけちゃうじゃない!」
部屋の中の女性がコケティッシュに言った。
この瞬間、中から聞こえてくる甘い言葉に、陸晨の顔色は一変した。
なぜなら、中にいるナナという女性は、彼が三年間付き合ってきた彼女、何娜だったからだ!
彼は想像もしていなかった。いつも清純だった何娜が、早く正式採用されるために、彼の上司と関係を持っていたなんて!
しかも裏では彼のことを役立たずと呼んでいたのだ!
部屋の中の男女の会話を聞きながら、陸晨は怒りに燃えた。
もう我慢できず、彼は思い切り足でオフィスのドアを蹴り開け、中に飛び込んだ。
「誰だ!」
胡副院長は驚いて、抱きしめていた何娜を押しのけ、急いで服を探して体に巻き付けようとした。
「胡のやろう、てめえのじいさんをくそ食らえ!」
陸晨は半裸の何娜を一瞥し、真っ赤な目で、胡副院長の油ぎった太った顔面に思い切り拳を叩き込んだ。
胡副院長はズボンも履き終えないうちに、陸晨の一撃で床に転がされた。彼は痛む頬を押さえながら、恐慌状態で陸晨に言った。
「陸くん、誤解だ……」
「誤解?誤解じゃねえよ、このクソ野郎!」
陸晨は力任せに一発、胡副院長の顔に平手打ちをくらわせ、その勢いで鼻血まで出た。
「陸晨、何してるの!早く胡院長から離れなさいよ!」
何娜は大慌てで、咄嗟に陸晨を引き離そうとした。
「触るな!この売女!俺に触るな!」
陸晨は振り返り、何娜を凶暴な目で睨みつけ、胡副院長の太った顔を次々と平手打ちした。
最後には、胡副院長の襟首を掴んで引きずり出した。
何娜は焦った表情で急いで後を追った。
「誰か助けて!殺される!」
地面に引きずられた胡副院長は豚のような悲鳴を上げた。
この時間にはみんな出勤していたので、物音を聞いて大勢が見物に集まってきた。
赤いパンツ一枚だけの胡副院長が、実習生に豚のように引きずられて病院のロビーに連れて来られるのを見て、皆は息を呑んだ。
特に、後ろから服装の乱れた何娜が続いているのを見て、すぐに状況を理解した。
きっと胡副院長がまた権力を悪用して、人の彼女に手を出し、現場を押さえられたのだろう!
ざまあみろ!
これが現場にいた多くの医師や看護師の心からの思いだった。
明らかに、この胡副院長の人柄と品行について、彼らは十分知り尽くしていた。
彼らは皆知っていたが、誰も口に出す勇気はなかった。
結局、目上の人間は下の者を押さえつけるものだ!
胡副院長がこの地位にいる限り、彼には人を苦しめる方法がいくらでもあった。
以前にも女性看護師が彼に手を出され、その女性の夫が毎日病院に来て騒いだが、結局は何も解決しなかった。
だから、この光景を見て、多くの人が頭を振り、この実習生に同情の目を向けた。
陸晨の殺気立った目つきを見て、誰も助けに行く勇気がなかった。
昔から不倫は命取り、誰も面倒に巻き込まれたくなかった。
「どいて、皆どいて!院長が来たぞ!」
その時、人々の間で動揺が広がり、警備員に守られながら、気高く冷たい雰囲気を持つ女性が群衆を押しのけて現れた。
陸晨はこの人物を知っていた。目の前のこの冷たい女性が、浜海人民病院の女性院長だと。
楚夢雪!
「何があったんですか?」
楚夢雪は顔を引き締め、冷ややかな表情で尋ねた。
「院長、助けてください!こいつは俺を殺そうとしています!」
胡副院長はパンツ一丁で惨めに叫んだ。
楚夢雪は不快そうに胡副院長を一瞥し、陸晨を上から下まで見て、厳しい声で言った。
「胡副院長が何をしたというのですか、あなたがこんなに彼を殴るほどに?」
「ふん、殴るだけで済んでいるだけマシだ!」
陸晨は怒りに満ちた顔で言った。
「彼はオフィスで私の彼女と不適切な関係を持っていて、現行犯で捕まえたんです。殴られて当然じゃないですか?」
これを聞いて、楚夢雪は眉をひそめ、怒りを含んだ表情で言った。
「老胡、彼の言うことは本当なのか?」
胡副院長の日頃の行いについて、彼女は十分承知していた。
病院の多くの人々が彼女に実名で報告していた——胡副院長が権力を乱用し、女性関係を持ち、医療機器のリベートを受け取るなど、一連の違法行為について。
しかし、報告は報告でも、確かな証拠はなく、さらに胡副院長のバックにいる人物の力も小さくなかったため、彼女は彼に対して何もできなかった。
彼を報告した人々さえも、彼が手段と関係を使って、様々な言いがかりをつけて病院から排除されていた。
先日も彼と最も激しく対立していた医師が、陸晨と同じように病院で大騒ぎになり、結局は彼によって刑務所に送られてしまった。
それなのに彼はまだ何事もなかったかのように副院長を続けている——これが彼に逆らう結果だ!
「院長、この若造はただの中傷です!私を守ってください!この若者は正式採用されるために、わざと私を陥れようとしているんです。私は冤罪なんです!」
胡副院長は必死に弁解した。
この時点で彼は、自分がまだ赤いパンツ一丁で大衆の視線にさらされていることにすら気づいていなかった。
「そうよ、院長様、私は胡院長に仕事の報告をしていただけなのに、陸晨が突然入ってきて、胡院長に正式採用の件で脅迫したんです。そうしないと男女関係の不正を告発すると言って!」
何娜も横から助け舟を出した。
今や彼女は胡副院長と運命を共にする蟻のようなもので、名声と仕事のために、完全に開き直っていた。
陸晨はこの言葉を聞いて、心が完全に冷え切った。
何娜は彼を裏切っただけでなく、逆に彼を責め、不倫相手と一緒になって彼を攻撃した。
「胡副院長が違法行為をしていると言うなら、確かな証拠はあるのですか?」
楚夢雪は二人の芝居を見ながら、陸晨を心配し始めた。
陸晨がこれほど胡副院長を殴り、相手の面子を潰したのだから、必ず恨まれるだろう。もし陸晨に胡副院長を糾弾する証拠がなければ、彼女は陸晨のために何もできないどころか、彼を守ることさえできないかもしれない!
陸晨は怒り、群衆の中の人々を指差して言った。
「彼も!彼女も!みんな見たはずだ!何か言ってくれよ!」
「終わった!」
この言葉を聞いて、楚夢雪は心沈み、静かに目を閉じた。しかし、彼女はなお無表情に周りの人々に冷たく尋ねた。
「皆さんは見たのですか?」
本来なら頷こうとしていた人々も、胡副院長の殺人的な視線を見て、恐れて目をそらし、何も言わなくなった。
「見て……見てません……」
この光景を見て、それまで罪悪感から頭を下げていた胡副院長は、急に顔を上げ、冷笑いを浮かべながら、陸晨を軽蔑するような笑みで見つめた。
楚夢雪は深いため息をつき、表面上は冷たいが、陸晨を守ろうとする意図を込めて言った。
「もし証拠がないのなら、胡副院長に謝罪してください。さもなければ、病院の規則に従って、あなたに処罰を下さざるを得ません!」

Everyone looked in that direction and there was a man standing there that I had never noticed before.
