Chapter 0803 - Sudden Death
The sunset is like fire.
A Chevrolet Suburban off-road van drove into the parking lot of the nursing home, Xia Lei stepped out of the car, and Wei Guanyi, who had been waiting next to him, greeted him.
"Mr. Xia, come with me. Wei Guanyi led Xia Lei to the inpatient building.
"Doctor Wei, are you sure Dr. Ning has recovered?" Xia Lei asked.
Wei Guanyi said: "Mr. Xia, don't you still believe it? But it's normal for you not to believe it, in fact, even I can't believe that this is true, I can only say that this is a miracle." Wait a minute, you will understand when you see her. ”
Xia Lei's heart was full of questions, but he didn't ask Wei Guanyi anything more. He would soon see Tranquility, what kind of situation she was, he would know after they met.
It's past the end of work, the vast majority of doctors and paramedics are off work, and the inpatient building is quiet. The sound of footsteps echoing in the hallway, coupled with the cold light of the energy-saving lamps in the hallway, the environment gives people a terrible feeling.
Coming to the door of the quiet ward, Wei Guanyi said, "Mr. Xia, you can go in by yourself." I'll be waiting for you in the office, if you have any questions, just press the pager and I'll be there. ”
Xia Lei nodded, then pushed open the door of the ward and walked in.
Serenity stood on the balcony and looked out at the sunset in the west. She seemed quiet, unaware of anyone in the room. The evening breeze whipped her long hair, fluttering gently.
Xia Lei wanted to call her, but seeing her so focused, he couldn't bear to disturb the peace here. He watched her quietly, waiting for the moment when she turned back.
This moment didn't last long, and after a minute, Tranquility suddenly turned around, and her eyes suddenly fell on Xia Lei's body.
The eyes are facing each other.
There is no picture of an imaginary excited hug, not even a cordial greeting. How quiet it was just now, it's still so quiet.
Facing the surprisingly calm eyes of Tranquility, the terrible feeling in Xia Lei's heart became more and more obvious, and he couldn't help but have a thought in his heart, is she really recovered like this?
After almost ten seconds, Tranquility suddenly showed a smile, "Xia Lei, you are here." ”
Her smile was a little unnatural.
Xia Lei's heart was confused, but there was still a smile on his face, "Tranquility, hello." ”
Tranquility curled the corners of her mouth slightly, "Why are you so polite to me?"
"You...... Are you alright?" said Xia Lei tentatively.
Tranquility spun around, "Do you see what's wrong with me?"
Xia Lei couldn't see anything wrong with her, but he felt that she was the real her ten seconds ago, and now she was like wearing a layer of incomprehensible disguise, not the real her.
"Let me be discharged. Tranquility said.
Xia Lei came back to his senses, "If you are well, of course you can be discharged from the hospital." ”
"Of course I'm fine. Tranquility said, and she walked towards Xia Lei. The pajama-style hospital gown danced gently in the breeze, and her body looked much thinner.
For some reason, Xia Lei took a step back.
Tranquility stopped approaching Xia Lei, her eyes were deep, as if she was about to move through Xia Lei's spirit.
"If you need a family member to sign, I don't have the qualifications to sign it, but I'll help you call your parents," said Shalei. Do you need me to call them for you?"
"It's useless, they can't help me get out of here, and I have to. Tranquility said.
Xia Lei's heart moved, "What are you going to do?"
Tranquility was silent again, her brow furrowing, as if she had suddenly lost her memory and had forgotten something and was trying to remember.
"Tranquility?" Xia Lei said tentatively, "What are you going to do?"
"I don't know. Tranquility suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Xia Lei's hand, and said anxiously: "But I know that you have to help me get out of here, and you have to give me ten million dollars." ”
Xia Lei was stunned on the spot.
"They didn't let me out of the hospital, saying they wanted to observe for a while, but I didn't have time. Tranquility grabbed Xia Lei's hand vigorously, "You have to help me get out of here, and then give me ten million dollars!"
10 million US dollars, more than 60 million Chinese dollars, such a large sum of money is not something that can be given. Moreover, she is obviously in this state and has not recovered, how can she give her so much money? Although Xia Lei has money, he will not spend money like this. He shook his head, "Calm down, tell me, what do you want so much money for?"
Serenity was silent again, frowning, trying to remember something.
"Tell me, what do you want so much money for?"
"I don't know. Tranquility shook her head, "But I know I have to get out of here, I'm going to India, I'm going to ten million dollars." ”
"Going to India?" Xia Lei said in surprise, "What are you going to India for?"
"I don't know!" Tranquility suddenly lost control of her emotions, and she yelled at Xia Lei: "I don't know! Don't ask, help me get out of here!"
"What if I don't?" said Charley.
Tranquility let go of Xia Lei's hand and stepped back step by step, a splash appeared in her eyes, and then two bean-sized tears rolled down from her eyes.
"Don't cry, I just want to get to the bottom of it. Xia Lei said apologetically: "You know, the identity of your expert group is very special, you are being treated here, you are subject to a lot of restrictions, you need to go through a very complicated process to be discharged, I am not your immediate family, even if I sign any documents, it is useless." Also, you want 10 million dollars, which is not a small amount, and I have to know what you are doing with all this money. Tell me, what are you doing with all this money?"
Tranquility held her head and squatted on the ground, she pulled her hair vigorously with a pained expression, "I don't know, I don't know, my head hurts so much, but that voice keeps telling me what to do, I...... If I don't get out of here, I'm going to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die...... I don't want to die!"
She was terrified.
Xia Lei couldn't keep calm anymore, he pounced, he pulled Tranquility up, grabbed her shoulders tightly with both hands, and said anxiously, "What did you just say you heard, what was that? What did that voice say to you?"
"Get out of here, 10 million dollars, New Delhi, India. "Quiet voice, with a sense of confusion.
"Is that voice threatening you?"
Tranquility nodded, looking scared.
"How did it threaten you? What did it say?"
"It says die, and I'll die. ”
Xia Lei was stunned for a moment, "What did you say?"
Tranquility suddenly pushed Xia Lei away and took two steps back, "When it says die, my heart stops beating." Yesterday it was like that, I heard it say death, and I fell to the ground and my heart stopped beating. I thought I was dead, but a minute later my heart was beating again. With that, she suddenly closed her eyes and fell straight to the ground.
"Tranquility!" Xia Lei pounced on her and wrapped his hand around her waist so that she didn't fall to the ground.
Tranquility opened her eyes again, "I want to show you how I died. ”
Xia Lei only felt pantothenic acid on the tip of his nose, and he had a feeling of wanting to cry. She is a poor woman who fate has not spared her and continues to torment her until now.
Tranquility lay in Xia Lei's arms, tears falling down again, "I don't want to die, I'm afraid to experience that feeling like that again, take me out of here, give me ten million dollars, okay?"
A tear also fell from the corner of Xia Lei's eye and dripped down Serenity's cheek.
No matter how you look at it, she has not recovered. She definitely deceived the nurse and Wei Guanyi, and now she is the real her.
Should you take her out of this semi-militarized sanatorium? Or even give her 10 million dollars?
Xia Lei's heart was very tangled and he couldn't make a decision. Tranquility is in this state, who would dare to believe her? Not to mention that it is a very troublesome thing to take her out of here, just thinking about how risky it is for her to go to New Delhi, India with 10 million US dollars after leaving here, he has a thousand worries. In such a situation, how could he help her like this?
However, he is not only facing this decision that makes him tangled and painful, he also has to face the "voice" that Serenity speaks of.
He could not forget the role of "prophet" that Serenity played in the last Italian operation, and if it weren't for her paintings, how could he have found the code and clues to enter the underground labyrinth from Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa?
But just when he hesitated and felt deep pain, the tranquility in his arms suddenly made a "uh" sound, and her body suddenly softened, her hands fell, and her head fell to her left shoulder.
"Tranquility, tranquility?" said Xia Lei suddenly nervous, calling her name loudly.
Serenity didn't respond in any way.
Xia Lei put his hand between her nostrils, and at that moment, he was struck like lightning - she was no longer breathing!
"Tranquility! Tranquility!" Xia Lei panicked all of a sudden, he put Tranquility on the ground, supported her left chest with both hands, and pressed her chest hard, "Wake up! Don't scare me!"
He was also panicked, and had forgotten that he was in the hospital, so he had a thought that was to resuscitate her heart.
Pressing the heart, artificial respiration, tranquility still shows no signs of coming back to life.
Thirty seconds later, Xia Lei suddenly came to his senses, he got up from the ground, and rushed to the pager on the bedside of the hospital bed. He grabbed the pager and shouted: "Tranquility is not good, come and rescue!"
There was no response from anyone on the pager.
"Speak, bastard!" said Charleigh into the pager. But at this moment, he suddenly found that the cord of the pager had been cut. He was stunned for a moment, who would cut the pager?
"Whew...... Ahem!" came the sound of coughing behind him.
Xia Lei hurriedly turned around, and then was stunned on the spot.
Tranquility propped her hands on the ground and slowly climbed up. She coughed incessantly, and tears flowed down her face.
The door of the ward was suddenly pushed open, and Wei Guanyi and a nurse appeared at the door.
"Mr. Xia, what's going on?" Wei Guanyi looked at Xia Lei who was holding the pager in surprise, and Tranquility who was standing behind Xia Lei.
Xia Lei put down the pager, "Uh, it's nothing, you guys go out, I'll talk to Tranquility." ”
"Is there really nothing?" Wei Guanyi said curiously.
"It's okay, go ahead, go ahead. Xia Lei said.
Wei Guanyi and the nurse left.
Tranquility relieved herself, and she choked up, "Do you believe it now? I don't want to go through it again, help me." ”
Xia Lei nodded, then he took out his phone and dialed a number.
"It's never a good thing for you to call me, just say, what's the matter?" Qin Xiang's voice.
"Do me one thing. ”
"It's stealing something, isn't it?"
"It's not stealing, it's people. Xia Lei said.
