Chapter 52: Love and Righteousness
Municipal People's Hospital, intensive ward.
Zhou Shuqing slept for a while, feeling that he had recovered some strength, but the good times did not last long, and the constant messages from the city bureau could no longer make him continue to lie down.
"Lao Zhou, with your current body, don't worry about the affairs of the bureau anymore, if something happens to you, what can I do?" Next to the hospital bed, a woman of nearly fifty said in a choked voice.
Although Zhou Shuqing couldn't answer at this time, he still kept pointing to the mobile phone with his hand that was not hanging a drip, and the woman couldn't help it, so she could only put the new WeChat in front of his eyes.
"Lao Zhou, do you remember that year, it should be a summer night twenty-six years ago, it was drizzling, I was very happy that day, because it was the first month after I graduated from college and got my salary, I bought some things for my parents, I bought a white dress that I have been secretly in love with for a long time, I wore it, like a butterfly flying in the forest, but misfortune happened, two rough men pulled me desperately, and the cold instruments on my cheeks made me afraid from the depths of my soul, We were fortunate to meet that night, we knew each other together, we have been in love with each other for twenty-six years, you are usually very busy, I have never complained, because it was a man who came down from the sky in a police uniform to give me a chance to be born again, you have not said that you love me for twenty-six years, but I can feel that affection between each other. Lao Zhou, there is a sentence that has been hidden in my heart for a long time and I have always been embarrassed to say, today I want to say it, I love you, just like the angel who has been waiting for me, you promise me to receive treatment well, let us get along with each other for the rest of our lives, okay? When she learned that Zhou Shuqing only had two or three months to live, it was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky hitting her whole body, and she was full of powerlessness, but in order not to let him find out the clues, she still sat here strongly, showing a smiling face. It's just that Zhou Shuqing cares about the dynamics of the game again and again, which has already made her haggard heart extend to the peak, and she really can't withstand a little bit of wind blowing.
Zhou Shuqing was very confused, lying on the bed without moving, without words, and even without breathing for a moment, on the one hand, there was brotherhood in the bureau, and on the other hand, there was the affection of husband and wife who had always complemented each other, where should he go.
Their hands were tightly clasped together, but the woman almost collapsed in an instant, because she clearly felt a finger in the palm of her hand vibrating, and if it was put together, it formed three words: sorry.
Before the woman had time to stop it, Zhou Shuqing ripped off the oxygen mask and urethral tube on his body, and said softly: "I'm sorry, someone came to pick me up, I'm going to the police station, you know me, I have to go."
"Why"? The woman burst into tears, went straight downstream, and then shouted: "You lied to me once ten years ago, which caused such a serious condition, if you don't receive treatment well, ten years later, do you want to bear me again?"
Zhou Shuqing was stunned, he finally knew his condition under the women's cleanup, it was not caused by the so-called fatigue at all, this bullet penetrated his body ten years ago, and he survived with difficulty by will, and finally needed to pay it back after ten years.
With a little confusion, a little depression, a little nostalgia, a little loneliness, he said: "I owe you too much in this life, originally I thought that people would win the day, but in the end, I can still only become a pawn of God, Xiao Na, I forgot the three words that have been hidden in my heart: I love you, if there is an afterlife, I must still pursue you, now I know that my time is running out, whether I heal or not it is meaningless, I beg you, let me in the limited time, go and do some for those children, otherwise I will not die."
"Zhou Bureau, Zhou Bureau", the two comrades who were ordered to come to greet Zhou Shuqing heard the conversation in the house and chose to take a break at the door, but at this time, they finally couldn't help but come out and dissuaded: "Zhou Bureau, your body is important."
Another policeman also persuaded: "Originally, we shouldn't have said it here with our qualifications, but your current body is ...... Let them handle the battles in the game, and the best thing you should do right now is to get treatment. ”
"What are you doing, who else told you to tear off the oxygen mask, do you know that his current body, if there is no oxygen supply, he will be unconscious at any time"? The intensive care ward is equipped with a 24-hour nursing nurse, but she had a bad stomach and went to the toilet, thinking that with his wife's company, there should be no mistakes, but she didn't expect it to have a completely different contrast with her heart.
Zhou Shuqing waved his hand and said solemnly: "Miss Nurse, I know what I am doing, I have already decided, you don't need to persuade me anymore, whatever happens, I will bear it myself."
Then, he turned around and stared at his wife beside him, and said gloomily, "I'm sorry."
The two stared at each other for a long time, tears slipped silently, and at that moment, each other's spirits and desires were closely connected, and the woman did not continue to hinder her, she did not want to die with regret and unwillingness in his limited life.
With the support of the two police officers, Zhou Shuqing just walked out of the door and bumped into Xia Yilu who came from the corridor.
A figure was extremely fast, with two fingers on the trembling hand, and two words in his mouth: "Don't move."
After two minutes, the young man said sharply: "You are so bold, if you continue to walk forward, I dare to guarantee that you will fall to the ground in no more than five minutes."
Zhou Shuqing smiled faintly: "Life and death are fate, there is no essential difference between me and not going now, why don't you try to go"?
The young man nodded, and he recognized his calmness and open-mindedness, and his downplay of life and death.
Xia Yilu's expression was a little nervous, and at the same time she looked at Xing Thirteen with a hint of hope.
Xing Thirteen did not answer immediately, but put his eyes on Zhou Shuqing, and said calmly: "To paraphrase his words, the cure or incure is all between his thoughts, if he is willing to cooperate, he will lie on the bed immediately, there should be hope."
Several people present heard this, and after being stunned, they all showed a trace of joy, and at this moment, a vague figure rose again, grabbed the sick woman, poked out his fingers, and investigated: "Rush to the heart, the problem is not big, there are still two minutes, once the time passes, I am no longer sure."
Zhou Shuqing's eyes wandered back and forth from the young man and the young man to his wife lying on the other bedside. He knew very well in his heart that this was a scam, how could he cure this terminal illness in him at such a young age, but even if he knew that in the face of everyone's kindness, his originally firm heart was confused in an instant, where should he go?
"Zhou Bureau, offended". Xia Yilu pushed away the two male policemen who had been supporting Zhou Shuqing, put his hand on his back, and forcibly put him on the bed.
Seeing this, Xing Shisan didn't stand idly by, if Zhou Shuqing hadn't been lying on the bed, the arrogance in his bones would never allow him to force others to accept his treatment, even if he had a handle on Xia Yilu's body.
The silver needle went out of the body, beating between the fingers, and the hazy mist followed, like a dream, so unreal.
Xia Yilu's face was full of surprise and disbelief, Qin Feiyang's words came to mind again, but it was a different situation, fortunately, she took the dead horse as a live horse doctor, and asked Xing Shisan suspiciously, at this time, she finally saw a glimmer of dawn in the darkness.
In the room, everyone was quiet and terrible, even the nurse who had just walked out, and the doctor who brought it back was watching quietly, not daring to come forward to disturb.
Time passed quietly, Xing Shisan's body began to tremble slowly, and the sweat had already invaded his body at some point, although he had overestimated Zhou Shuqing's condition, but he found that he still looked down on his hidden illness.
Xia Yilu's steps were very light, so light that she didn't make any sound, she stood behind Xing Shisan, wiping the sweat stains on his face for him little by little, gentle like a little daughter-in-law.
In hesitation and quiet, Xing Shisan took away the silver needle and shook his head helplessly.
Xia Yilu's heart chuckled, the towel in his hand fell silently, tears flowed down uncontrollably, and he said bitterly in his heart: "Why is this so unfair, does God really confirm the sentence: Good people don't live long, and disasters will last for a thousand years?"
