Section 221 On the eve of the storm
Standing tall buildings, crowded traffic, buildings on both sides of the road, large billboards with colorful flowers, approaching Christmas, the weather is also cold, the bustling crowd on both sides of the street has put on thick winter coats, wearing thick suits, hurrying salesmen with briefcases, tall and fashionable beauties shopping together, teenagers wearing hip-hop clothes and sports caps, urban white-collar workers who stop in front of the newsstand with coffee, pick up a newspaper and pay for it and then hurry away, white skin, yellow skin, Dark skin, blonde hair, brunette, color-dyed hair, er, bald heads...... The flow of people pauses at the crowded intersection for a moment, and when the tide of traffic passes, the green light on the sidewalk lights come on, and the waiting pedestrians on both sides come in relative to each other, and after a few moments they are separated by the flow of traffic again.
Shops near and far are already decorating and decorating for the upcoming Christmas, and across the street, a huge Christmas-specific promotional sign is slowly being hoisted, brightly colored, and it looks particularly eye-catching, and the crowd below is subconsciously bypassing a distance. In this narrow space surrounded by all kinds of huge and bright billboards, millions of people crowd between the streets like valleys, waiting, passing through, stopping, like cells, bringing trivial objects and trivial lives from here to there, maintaining the vitality of this giant city.
December 19, 1998, Manhattan, New York, USA, one of the most prosperous places in the world.
Wearing a white and thin patient gown. With a pair of slippers on her feet, a melon seed face, a long ponytail tied with a simple red rope behind her head, and a standard oriental beauty face, the woman with a standard oriental beauty face stood in the corridor, her hands gently touched the transparent glass window that closed the entire space, and she was looking at everything on the street below. The puffiness on her body had faded, and she had lost weight. Appears slimmer and thinner than ever.
This is a medical institution located in the most prosperous part of the city of Manhattan, and it may be more appropriate to say that it is a medical institution, but it is more appropriate to say that it is a research institute, which has a long reputation in the industry, but it is not a conventional hospital, they are more often only responsible for development and research, and if you want to be treated here, you will have to spend a lot of money without exception, and it is better to have a good family background, which is why you want to have a good family. It doesn't receive many patients, but it has a place in the most expensive location in the world, with the best medical equipment and a perfect medical environment.
She arrived here the day before yesterday, in fact, before she arrived here, her condition was already under control, her body had gone down and she was in the recovery stage. However, nephrotic syndrome is one of the most stubborn diseases, and getting better at once does not mean anything, because it will not be long. It can recur due to a small opportunity, such as a cold and flu β which is difficult to avoid in patients who are already weak because of the disease. Zhang Jingan hurriedly sent her over, that is, to find a better way to cure the root cause.
This trip. It was a bit of a haste for her, for her father had only said once that he had been in contact with New York, and then he had put her on a plane that night, not so much that she had any mischief for the arrangement, but only before...... She was still waiting for the man.
Well, let's go see him when healed......
Yahan's relationship with his father. Since the beginning of the Cold War a few years ago, nothing has gotten better. Although I understand my father's concern for me. But a few years ago, because of Liu Wenli's matter, she also clearly understood. When necessary, the father who puts the interests of the family first will still marry him as a bargaining chip, probably because he also recognizes the disharmony of this relationship, this time it is just that the little mother accompanied her to New York, and Zhang Jingan is only in Jianghai, and he makes a phone call every day to understand the situation.
Yahan, who has lived in the UK for three years, has nothing to adapt to the American environment, and in the past two days, she has basically lived in the hospital for such and such examinations, simple injections and medicines, and has not gone out at all. During this time, my mother was ready to take advantage of Christmas to travel and shop in New York City, and she was also ready to forget her troubles for a while and have fun in New York for a while.
After looking at the street scene outside the window for a while, she scattered along the corridor in the floor, most of this floor is the research room, and the small half of this floor is the ward, although there are few people, but after all, there is land, the whole corridor, plus a nurse who just passed, about four or five people. Walking to the door of a ward, she vaguely heard someone inside talking in English, the accent was a little different from the British side, she couldn't hear clearly for a while, and at this moment, with a bang, the door opened, knocking her to the ground.
Out of the room were two young people who were obviously a little unkind, and they were pushing the door out with some excitement, and when they saw Yahan who was knocked to the ground, they couldn't help but be stunned, and then the two looked at each other, one of them questioned in English, this time Yahan heard clearly, these two probably thought that she was eavesdropping on the conversation outside the door, the man said, and grabbed Yahan's clothes and pulled her up.
"Say, who are you!"
"Why eavesdrop on ......"
"Who ordered you to come, man of the Gambino family? Or the Collobo family......"
"You ...... What are you talking about? Let me go! These two people are probably used to being domineering, but Yahan is not the kind of woman who is bullied, the bodyguard she brought is not by her side, she put her hands together and slashed at the man's elbow, and when the man's hand is released, she has grabbed the man's shoulder and collar, and swept her calf just right, and threw him to the ground with both hands.
This series of simple moves made it smooth, but because the condition was healing, there was really no strength in his body, and he took a step back, his head was slightly dizzy. When the other saw his companion fall to the ground, he rushed up. At this moment, a figure inserted between the two.
"Alas...... What is the matter, if you have something to say slowly, if you have something to say, ...... you have something to say slowly."
The figure had a hand, blocking the two people who were about to rush over, and he was not tall and burly
Only about 1.7 meters, wearing a yellow sports cap, he blocked both of them for a while, and just said: "If you have something to say, speak slowly." It's a misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding, if you have something to say, don't hit me......"
As he spoke, the two of them simply moved their hands on the guy who came to mix, but the person's body shook twice, and he easily dodged it, and when one of them came to grab Yahan, he grabbed his clothes again, and for a while, the person seemed to dodge and pull in an orderly manner, and the two could not get to Yahan. I couldn't hurt him in the slightest. Yahan looked at it for a while, but recognized that this person's footwork was obviously Chinese martial arts, although it seemed to be flustered, it was obviously much more powerful than himself.
"Don't hit me...... There is something to say slowly, I count to three, let's stop together, stop it's okay, I count, alas...... Three! β
Suddenly, the voice fell, and the farce that was still as lively as a market came to an end in an instant. With the man's sudden punch, the two men fell to the ground with a bang. The man laughed and raised his hand, looking like a yellow man of about twenty years old. The body is not fat, but the face is round, and it looks quite pleasing, giving people a feeling that they don't grow up: "I said it was a misunderstanding, don't fight again...... Uh......"
βFuckοΌβ With this ~ a pistol. aimed at the man's forehead. The Chinese man raised his hand. But at the same time, the other hand held the barrel of the pistol. Appearing behind the round-faced man was a tall foreign man, wearing a crisp suit, holding a bouquet of flowers, and frowning: "What are you doing?" β
"Uh......" The two groups obviously knew each other, and as soon as the muzzle of the gun was grasped, the foreign man with the gun here was obviously panicked, "Mr. Joseph, this woman is eavesdropping on us......"
"I didn't!" Yahan said with a glare.
"Where?" The pleasing man also raised his hand and said, "They opened the door carelessly, knocked down this young lady, and slandered her for eavesdropping." β
The man named Joseph glanced at a few people, then nodded to Yahan, "I'm sorry, it's them who are wrong...... Apologize! The second half of the sentence was clearly addressed to the two foreigners.
β
"But...... Belch...... I'm sorry. β
"Sorry......"
Both of them, apparently afraid of the man named Joseph, hesitated for a moment, and apologized somewhat reluctantly, but Joseph did not say much, took the bouquet into the room, and then closed the door. Outside the door, the pleasing-looking man nodded to Yahan and said in Chinese: "Chinese? β
Yahan nodded slightly.
"What a coincidence, I didn't think that I could see Chinese here, so am I, you can call me steamed buns, my hometown is in Beijing."
Mantou smiled and stretched out his hand, Yahan smiled slightly and touched it symbolically: "Thank you." β
The man named Mantou on the other side seemed to want to say something, but the beautiful woman in front of him nodded, but she had already turned around and walked back, scratching her hair with some puzzlement, and after a while, he looked at both sides and couldn't help but laugh at himself.
Stepping aside, he took out an MP3 from his arms and pressed it: "Boss, something has happened, she has come into contact with the target, and the failure is that she doesn't seem to have any interest in communicating with me, and the beauty is really a beauty, I guess it was the advanced martial arts I showed that caused her subconscious vigilance...... Also, how come the mafia people are also in this hospital, I just saw Joseph of the Sally family, although he has always managed a relatively visible business, but will it have any impact on our affairs this time? β
"Probably not." After a while, a voice came from the other side, "It's Joseph's younger brother who went in, he was shot some time ago, because Joseph also owns shares in this research institute, they should be just a small matter compared to what might happen." However, in view of the fact that you said before that your appearance and temperament kill both men and women, and for the result that the beautiful women do not want to bird you now, I would like to express my sincere eyes and warm contempt for you on behalf of the entire anti-terrorism team......"
"Cut...... Brother Guohua, I just think we don't need to worry so much, she doesn't have a little woman from any enemy, and once she goes abroad, she has to arrange so many of us to protect her, I think, as long as I am here, it will be enough to protect the head of state, right? Do you need to go to such trouble to please a tulip? β
"That's right." On the side of the headphones, Cui Guohua smiled, "So Guolin and the others have now gone out to travel and hang out, such a glorious and arduous task will be handed over to you alone, steamed bun classmate, if there is really danger, you can ask for more blessings." β
ββ¦β¦ Shame on you. β
"In the past, going abroad to such a big place was a task, but now I finally have some free time, of course, it is cost-effective to go shopping...... Hehe, in fact, Guolin and the others are looking for news about North American Pei Luojia based on your intelligence, as for Tulip, you have been in the United States all these years, and it may be difficult to understand if you don't experience it once, but since we happen to be in New York, and there is such an order from above, let's do it well, this incident in Jianghai City happened to be the best opportunity for us to show our sincerity to Tulip, that person...... I'd love to meet her......"
"If it's a beauty." Mantou rolled his eyes, "I also want to meet and communicate with her." β
While the two were having a boring conversation over a dedicated intercom system, a plane from China landed on time at Kennedy International Airport, about 20 kilometers southeast of Manhattan, and soon after, a woman wearing a white trench coat and light red sunglasses walked out of the airport gate, carrying a small suitcase, and flagged down a taxi.
βSheratontanγ (Sheraton Manhattan Hotel)" said lightly, it was a pure and authentic New York accent, the driver drove on the road according to his words, in the car, the woman took off her light red sunglasses, and what was reflected from the reflector was Jian Suyan's delicate face full of oriental beauty, elegant, quiet and heroic. Only in the slightly furrowed brow, there was a faint hint of edge, like the quietest clouds before the storm......
