Taking a taxi, Lian Ge and the old lady approached the place where Old Man Huo lived,

All the way, the old lady was silent, looking out of the car window with some distraction, as if she was caught in a memory,

Lian Ge glanced at the old lady and didn't say much.

Inside the car, it was quiet.

......

“...... This is the entrance of the old vegetable market, right?"

The taxi swept through the street in front of the square, and the congested traffic slowed down the taxi, and the old lady looked out the window and was silent, as if she was asking Lian Ge, and as if she was asking herself,

“...... Has he been here since then?"

"He was sitting on the side of the street when I met him. Lian Ge didn't look back, and replied in a calm tone,

Hearing this, the old lady fell silent again and did not speak again,

The traffic jam on the road gradually dispersed again, and the taxis in the car picked up speed.

......

Not far from the square, at the entrance of the Checheng Sanatorium,

Lian Ge and the old lady got out of the car again.

The main entrance of the sanatorium is still open, and the lights inside are on.

Looking at the sanatorium door, the old lady hesitated, and after a pause, she moved her steps and walked towards the sanatorium door.

Lian Ge glanced at the old lady, then at the female ghost on her side, and also walked towards the sanatorium.

......

“...... Old lady, is there anything wrong with you?"

The doorman standing guard noticed the figure of the old lady, stepped forward politely, and asked,

"I'm looking for someone. The old lady replied,

"Who are you looking for?" looked at the old lady, and the doorman asked politely,

"Huo Siguo. The old lady paused and said the name,

"Old man Huo. The doorman answered, and then asked, "May I ask ...... you?"

"Just tell him that I'm Gan Huishuang. The old lady did not hesitate any longer and replied.

"That's okay, I'll let someone inform Old Man Huo, at this point, the old man shouldn't have slept yet, I'll take you in and sit inside for a while." The doorman looked at the old lady and nodded, and answered, and he was going to lead the way in front.

"No need, I'll just wait here...... I can still wait for a while," the old lady shook her head,

"That'...... Okay, I'll let someone inform Old Man Huo, you wait. ”

When the old lady heard this, she nodded, and then she moved her steps and walked to the side.

“...... Little Mister. ”

Turning around, the old lady found that the person who came with her disappeared in an instant.

......

Lian Ge, who imposed 'invisible and hidden' on himself, walked into the sanatorium with the female ghost on his side,

Under the guidance of the female ghost, Lian Ge walked to the door of a room,

The door was hidden, and some flickering light faintly shone from within, and the sound of the TV,

Gently pushing open the door, Lian Ge walked into the room with the female ghost,

In the room, the TV hanging on the wall was playing some programs, and the old man was leaning on a wheelchair, holding the remote control in his trembling hand, but he didn't watch TV, but lowered his head and was distracted.

The movement of the door opening made the old man slowly turn his head and notice Lian Ge,

“...... Young man, is that you?" looked at Lian Ge, and the old man recognized it,

"Sir, do you remember who you had to wait for?"

Looking at the old man, Lian Ge smiled slightly and said out loud, "She's here." ”

Hearing this, the old man was stunned at first,

"She'......"

"Right now at the door of the nursing home. ”

Listening to Lian Ge's reconfirmation, the old man's emotions became a little excited,

“...... I'm going to see her, no...... I've got to change my clothes, change my clothes......"

As he spoke, the old man supported the sides of the wheelchair with trembling hands, stood up tremblingly, leaned over, moved trembling steps, and walked towards the wardrobe in the room.

Walking to the wardrobe, the old man paused again,

There was a mirror embedded in the wardrobe, even though the room was a little dim, but with the flickering light of the TV screen, it still reflected his rickety body, old face, loose, skin covered with age spots, and blood marks on his hands,

Raising his hand, the old man took off the hat on his head, and was silent, looking at the blur of flesh and blood above his head,

“...... Young man, can you help me, help me get a clean dress out of this cabinet......" After a moment of silence, the old man's hand trembled, turned his head, looked at Lian Ge, and pleaded,

Smiling slightly, Lian Ge stepped forward and helped open the wardrobe door,

“...... Which one do you want to wear, sir?"

......

"Old man Huo, old man Huo......"

After a few moments, some eager voices rang out from far and near,

"Old man Huo, weren't you still playing chess with Lao Ding and them before, why did you come back......

Pushing open the door, the middle-aged woman walked in before, and when she saw the old man, she breathed a sigh of relief,

"By the way, old man, there is an old lady named Gan Huishuang looking for you, and she will be waiting for you outside. ”

Hearing this name again, the old man standing in front of the wheelchair paused, and then said in a loud voice:

"Let's go......"

"Old man, you are still in a wheelchair, can I push you over?"

Hearing this, the old man shook his head, and although his steps were a little trembling, he still walked towards the outside of the house step by step.

Walking to the bright place, the middle-aged woman noticed that the old man had changed his clothes and a black hat on his head.

There was some confusion in her eyes, but the middle-aged woman still hurriedly followed the old man.

......

“...... Do you think I'm okay?"

"Looks in good spirits, old man. ”

"That's good, that's good......"

......

Watching the old man walk towards the outside of the sanatorium step by step, Lian Ge in the house paused, and after glancing at the female ghost on the side, he also moved his steps and stepped out of the house.

......

“...... Sit, old lady. ”

At the door of the nursing home, after the old lady was reluctant to go in, the doorman moved a chair out and put it behind the old lady.

The old lady thanked her, but did not sit down, but from time to time she was a little distracted, and looked hesitantly at the sanatorium.

......

A trembling figure was helped out of the night and appeared in the old lady's sight.

Old Man Huo also noticed the figure at the door, let go of the nursing staff who was supporting him, moved his steps, and continued to walk over step by step.

Looking at each other, the hesitation, hesitation, and excitement in the eyes of the two gradually disappeared, and was replaced by calm.

"Huishuang. ”

Old Man Huo looked at the person in front of him, and called out in a calm tone, as if he was calling a friend he had met in the morning on the street,

"Thinking of the Country......

The old lady looked at the old man, and after a moment of silence, she also called out.

"You...... "The old man looked at the old lady and came closer,

"It's okay...... Although I am old, my body is still quite strong, and although my children are far away, they are still filial piety, and they will come back to see me from time to time. ”

The old lady looked at the old man and replied with a smile,

When the old man heard this, he was silent for a moment, and then nodded,

“...... Do you know that the former vegetable market entrance has been changed into a square, and the teahouse and photo studio across the street are no longer there. ”

Turning his head, the old man looked in the direction of the vegetable market in the distance,

“...... You're old too. ”

"When I came, I saw it...... It's time to get old, decades, and you're old. The old lady paused, then nodded.

The old man fell silent, and so did the old lady.

Moving steps, the old man walked along the road, trembling and walking step by step, the old lady also followed, the nursing staff hesitated, and stood in place,

“...... Do you remember, this was your home at that time? ”

After moving a few steps, the old man turned his head again, looked at the nursing home behind him, and said.
