I immediately raised my feet and ran up, only to get closer, bypassing the morning sun, only to realize that it was just a figure formed by light. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info was a little frustrated, but he didn't slow down and trotted over to the "man".

This humanoid light standing on the hillside is already familiar to me. Usually tall, with a flat face and a short chin, a small flat head, wearing a jacket and suit pants, it is the village chief Chen Zhongzhong. He seemed to have walked a lot, and his figure was full of exhaustion and slump. I could see that his shoulders were broken, his head was a little tilted, and he was staring ahead without saying a word. I walked behind him, and from this vantage point, I was able to see large swaths of the village, including a few fields of farmland in the distance.

He was looking at the village he was governing, smoking hard, letting the fire fire fire fly up the cigarette roll, and then let out a long sigh. I watched him stand there for a long time, and just watched, cigarette after cigarette, with a small stack of cigarette butts under his feet. What was he thinking about, maybe he was thinking about the missing Zhuangzhuang, maybe he was worried about the flu outbreak in the village, or maybe this year's harvest? I had no way of knowing this, I could only look at such an ordinary middle-aged man, just standing silently on the hillside and looking at the small village at his feet, for a long, long time.

Then he turned around and left, and I watched him turn around and walk into the nearest house, and then his hoarse voice came: "That, Uncle Ren, let me tell you something, the flu has recently broken out in the village..." Then I asked them if they had seen any trace of Zhuang Zhuang or Mrs. Hua, but to no avail.

I saw him stop and talk to two figures on the side of the road, and the silhouette was a man and a woman, and the woman was holding a baby and crying, looking like a young couple.

"You're so late... Are you going out? Lao Chen asked, he was obviously very tired, and he spoke in a loud voice.

"yes, I can't stay in this place anymore." The young man was trying to hit the car, and the engine rattled a few times, but it didn't ignite. I guess they didn't succeed in the end, because I was watching an abandoned Dongfeng well-off van quietly parked on the side of the road. "Uncle Jia is gone, I thought he went out to pull goods and went to their house, but there was no one, it's really fucking scary." The man kicked the tire in a rage, startling the child in the woman's arms to cry loudly again. The woman snorted, and then hurriedly coaxed the baby away.

The man lifted the hood and tinkered, but finally gave up trying: "This... Okay, it seems that we can only wait for Brother Jia to pull us out tomorrow. He put down the hood, looked up at Lao Chen and said, "Village Chief, we can't stay in this village anymore, Xiao Deng and I will go to her mother's house early tomorrow morning to take refuge, when it will be safe, and when we will come back." ”

Lao Chen looked at him a little sneeringly, and after a while, he nodded slowly. "Okay, stay safe."

Then he disappeared again, appearing at the door of a house on my left.

I hurried after him, and saw him standing at the door of the family, with his head bowed and not speaking. When he finally pushed the door and walked in, I was able to walk to the door to check what had caught his attention.

It was blood, if it weren't for the concrete threshold, almost the same color as the dirt. I looked up and saw Lao Chen slowly looking around with his legs in tow. "Second aunt?" His voice was hoarse, and there was no emotion to speak of when he shouted. "Second aunt? Lao Wang? ”

He hesitated in front of the master bedroom door for a long time, knocked repeatedly for a long time, and then carefully unscrewed the door.

The room was empty, and there was a small pool of dried blood in the middle of the bed, which was estimated to be strong. Bloody tissues were thrown on the floor, and the drawers were pulled open, and the clothes inside were lifted from the rear. I can still see two couples sleeping with their children, and in the middle of the night when the child is sick, they quickly take out the little savings hidden in the closet and go to the hospital. What a hurry.

I looked at Lao Chen's light and shadow and checked all the rooms, but I didn't find the two of them, so I sighed and left, and casually took the hidden door for them.

I followed his light out the door, and suddenly I heard a child's laughter explode behind me. I was so frightened that I turned around and searched for a long time before I saw a small humanoid light running past me.

"Big Brother Bai, stop! Stop! The little kid giggled and chased after the tall figure in front of him. The person in front also stopped and asked innocently, "Zhuangzhuang, do you want to eat sugar?" Peanut brittle? ”

"Yes!" Children can reach for it, but not even for adults' chests.

"Call Daddy, call Daddy and I'll give you candy." The big man coaxed him.

"No, I have a dad." The child was angry and just wanted to leave, but was hooked back by the candy taken out by the big man.

"Come on, call Dad, the freshly fried peanuts are very fragrant." The big man squatted down and coaxed him. "Big Brother Bai", I suddenly realized what Zhuang Zhuang called him, and I couldn't help but be shocked that the human form in front of me might be Bai Qianfen, Bai Yuelu's mentally handicapped brother.

This realization made me feel a wave of sadness welling up in my heart. I don't know why he insisted on calling him Daddy, maybe it was just ignorant malice, or maybe someone had teased him like this. None of this is known.

"Don't do it!" Zhuang Zhuang giggled and ran away, Bai Fenjin followed behind him, and the two humanoid lights disappeared around the corner of the room.

The next time I met Lao Chen's light was when I was searching for the only small pharmacy in the village. I was looking at the shelves of over-the-counter drugs and some commonly used prescription drugs when I heard footsteps coming from the yard.

When I ran outside, I saw Lao Chen, who was neither tall nor fat, and the featureless light and shadow walked over with his hands behind his back. "Doctor Xing..."

The tall and thin humanoid light in the courtyard was talking to the light of another middle-aged woman: "If he has a bad headache, he will take one of these Sanlipain." But you must put it away, don't ask Endeavor to find yourself to eat. ”

"Hey, don't worry, I told him not to eat indiscriminately, he didn't dare." The woman took the medicine in his hand, and then she heard the voice of the village chief, and turned her head: "Village chief, is there something wrong with Lao Xing?" ”

Lao Chen nodded, "Hey, hey" nodded, "It's a little wrong, come and see Dr. Xing." ”

"Yo," the middle-aged woman said with concern as she put the medicine in her pocket and pulled the zipper, "It can't be the flu, right?" ”

"No, it's not." Lao Chen smiled, "It's an old problem, cervical spondylosis, find Lao Xing to be positive." ”

Listening to his tone, I felt that Lao Chen had something to hide. The thin and tall shadow seemed to hear it, and hurriedly followed his words: "Then Lao Chen, come in quickly, I'll press it for you." Aunt Bai, then I'll go and help Lao Chen press his neck first. So the two lights and shadows walked into the room, and I followed.

As soon as you enter the small pharmacy is a glass counter with various medicines inside. Further inside, there is a simple examination room with an examination table and so on, covered with whitewashed white sheets. Two humanoids walked in, and the tall and lanky one made a gesture with the door.

I looked at the open door in front of me, still unmoving. They're not here, they're in the plane ten years ago, and they can't close the door in front of me. So I walked straight in and saw Dr. Xing's light turning.

"Old Chen... What do you want me to do? ”

"Oh, Doctor Xing," village chief Chen Zhongzhong touched the top of his head, "this... Let me ask you something. He said, "This... We have had a flu outbreak in Murakami recently, right? ”

Dr. Xing sat down behind his desk in the consultation room, took a sip of tea, and was noncommittal. Lao Chen also sat on the bench opposite him, "That... I don't know about this, so I'll let you know. I've never seen the flu look like this, huh? ”

Doctor Xing nodded slowly, and then spoke, his tone was a little less indifferent than before. "To be honest, Lao Chen, I'm panicking too." He shook his head, "You know mine, too, I'm... I've never seen this disease either. But it was a headache and chest tightness, and nosebleeds. I could only think it was the flu. ”

"Could it be something, hemorrhagic fever or something?" Lao Chen took out a tightly rolled piece of paper from his jacket pocket, the edges were almost broken, and the yellow raw edges were grinded. He unfolded the A4 paper, "I looked it up, and I had pain, or something." ”

Dr. Xing took the paper in his hand, pushed his glasses up, and squinted: "Look... That's not right. This one is going to have a fever, and none of us have a pendulum. He returned the paper roll to Lao Chen and took off his glasses, "I'll take a look at it again,"

"Huh. Then you get busy first, I'll go. Lao Chen got up and said goodbye. I hurriedly jumped into the house to get out of the way. When I turned around, I saw a thin tall shadow sitting there, holding his glasses in his hand. Sighing, he took a handful from the void next to him, and seemed to open a book of something, and "brushed" it to write down something.

I waited for his light to fade before I walked over and pulled open a large wooden drawer on the side of the table. There were stacks of brown paper folders inside, and I took out one and opened it: "Date: October 25, 2015, Patient's Name: Jia Kaixuan, Age: 65 years old." Admitted to the hospital with abdominal pain, tenderness in the left lower abdomen, body temperature of 38.0, and the diagnosis of appendicitis was made. "It's all medical records. I rummaged through it and found the thickest one: "Date: November 3, 2016, Patient's Name: Li Tianhao, Age: 9 years old." Headache, diagnosis without fever, suspected early cold, it is recommended to rest more. ”

"November 14, 2016, patient's name: Li Tianhao, age: 9 years old. Headache, chest tightness, bleeding spots on the arms. Vomiting. ”

"November 15, 2016, patient's name: Bai Endeavour, age: 35. Headache, chest tightness, bleeding spots on the palms and arms, bright light in front of the eyes, blurred vision. ”

There are also several people's medical records, all of whom have symptoms such as headaches, chest tightness, inexplicable bleeding, hair loss, and bright lights in front of their eyes. The doctor, surnamed Xing, wrote them all down, with words such as "Purpura? Chemical contamination? and so on.

I didn't have time to read it all, so I had to put this folder in my bag and look at it when I had time.
