Chapter 49: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada, and the Yellow Sparrow Follows (2)
Soon, a group of security guards came in and surrounded me and Gu Tingcheng.
We cooperated 100% with the hospital's inquiries, and now we know that the ambulance, doctors, and nurses were all unregistered, and the doctors and nurses on the night shift in the emergency room that night slept all night, and there was not a single patient disturbing. What's even more terrifying is that the doctor judged from Ming Shuichong's injury that she lost a lot of blood before arriving at the hospital and needed more than 20,000 units of blood transfusion. In order to mobilize so much fresh blood in the hospital, it is necessary to go through a blood bank, and now, according to the records of the blood bank, there has not been a single operation that requires a large blood transfusion in the past three months. That is, even the nurse who transports the blood is fake.
"It's all fake, so the video footage captured by the hospital's surveillance system is also fake?" Gu Tingcheng asked.
That is the last clue to trace, Dunhuang City Ring Road is arranged in the "Sky Eye" monitoring system, and the monitoring subsystem inside the hospital is connected. As long as you look at the historical records, you can prove that Gu Tingcheng and I are telling the truth.
Coincidentally, within 24 hours, the "Sky Eye" data and hospital monitoring data were all out of order, and they could not be retrieved at all.
The only thing that can prove that Ming Shuisleeve committed suicide, I carried her downstairs, left the elevator, got out of the hotel lobby, and left in an ambulance. However, those images only prove that we are gone, but they cannot tell where we have gone.
Without a clue, Gu Tingcheng and I re-registered Ming Shuichong, paid 10,000 yuan in advance for the hospitalization fee again, and then asked the doctor to cut off the bandage on Ming Shuichong's arm, and with the help of a radiographic machine, the sutures at the wound were repeatedly checked.
After a series of setbacks, the only good news we got was that the surgical sutures were professional, there were no flaws, there was no need to remove the sutures for a second suture, the original shape was maintained, the bandaging was re-dressed, and we waited for the first dressing change after three days.
Gu Qingcheng and I were silent and forbearing, until we entered the single ward and settled Ming Shui's sleeves, and then we breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"Like fools, we fell into the trap of the enemy. Unbelievable and inexplicable...... I don't know what the enemy wants to do! It's just a surgery, a simple suture operation! What did they get in the end when they worked in place of doctors? Didn't get anything, right? They don't even have to worry about us at all, the night doctors at their own hospital do all this. What are they doing so hard, fighting, and going to great lengths for? Is it to tease us? Who are they? It's definitely not the Immortal Jade Master, at that time, the Immortal Jade Master was busy dealing with the Iron Mirror King......" Gu Qingcheng collapsed on the sofa in a gloomy manner, holding his head in his hands, and fell into deep thought.
I knew very well that something had already happened under the surface that everyone could see.
Such an outright conspiracy must have been planned for a long time, with a clear purpose and a perfect plan.
The results of "everything is normal and compliant" obtained by the X-ray machine are only information documents in the sense of pathology, and to know the real answer, we must wait for Ming Shuisleeve to come to his senses.
"To drink tea?" I asked.
Gu Qingcheng looked at me silently, his eyes full of frustration.
"We didn't drink water all night, and if we held on, we should be wasted. Drink tea first, refuel your body, and think about it after tea, it is easier to guess the riddle. I explained.
In the eyes of doctors, we are sleepwalkers; In the eyes of the police, we were deliberately disrupting the peace. None of that matters, we have to keep a cool head and be physically fit to have the strength to pursue the truth.
"Drink tea, drink good tea." After I reminded him, Gu Tingcheng suddenly realized.
I made a phone call and asked the best tea shop in the city to deliver two small packets of tea, one for the finest white jasmine tea and the other for the first class oil-cut oolong tea. Good tea needs good water to brew, and along with the tea leaves, there is also the store's own barreled mineral water and homemade refreshment preserves.
As soon as the tea was brewed, the vegetarian meal that Gu Tingcheng called from the back kitchen of the Chundu Hotel was also delivered.
"Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years. Fei Ge and his brother's attitude towards people and things are very different, if the brother encounters the same thing, he will only grind his teeth and suck blood, and prepare to fight the enemy to the death, like a strong bow that is pulled to the extreme in an instant. In Feige's place, the little sister is like a spring breeze and enjoys the joy of good tea and food. No wonder Mr. Lui said that as soon as the dragon in Causeway Bay left, half of the sky in Perak Hall collapsed! Gu Qingcheng's mood had relaxed, he was talking and laughing, and he was exhausted.
"Without me, Perak Hall still has the 'Three Generals of Huwei' and the 'Thirteen Taibao of Kaminami'! With the prestige of Perak Hall today, there is no need to fight and kill many times, as long as you make a few phone calls and have a few meals with the upper echelons of Bai Dao, you can solve all the troubles. I have always thought that after the 97th Century, the rivers and lakes of Hong Kong Island have already undergone qualitative changes, and everything is moving towards the era of fairness and justice and the rule of law, and the people of the rivers and lakes will gradually become serious businessmen, and it is no longer possible to override the national law and act according to the rules of the underworld. Mr. Ray is a smart man, and it is impossible not to see this. "I feel it.
The underworld is only a staged product of the chaotic period of the country, once the peaceful and prosperous era comes, all the underworld characters will have nothing to hide, and their so-called "underworld business" will lose its place of survival.
After the return of Hong Kong and Macao, the characters in the rivers and lakes are gradually declining, which is precisely the reason.
According to my observation of Lei Dongtian, after the 97th Century, he has cut off most of the illegal businesses under the jurisdiction of Perak Tong, and devoted more of his personal energy to social welfare and charity, changing his past style. If the bigwigs of the Chinese rivers and lakes are all like him, then the dream of the Chinese nation to unite and forge ahead and lead the world is no longer far away.
We moved the sofa and coffee table in the room to the window, and enjoyed the morning sun while eating.
In the days when there are no sandstorms, Dunhuang is sunny and refreshing every day, which is not inferior to those pollution-free and haze-free tourist resorts abroad.
In fact, I had already expected that the Iron Mirror King's side would also encounter the same situation as us, that is, fake surgery, fake childbirth, fake battle...... Everything is fake, and we are all wrestling with the air.
"Vegetarian food can always make people sober, "Cao Di Polemic" said that meat eaters despise and fail to plan far. I have memorized this sentence since I was in elementary school, so for more than ten years, I have been almost vegetarian. Ah-my brother is the opposite of me, and he has no meat and no joy, and things in this world are so interesting. Brother Fei, you have been in Dunhuang for three years, you must have encountered a lot of interesting things, right? Gu Qingcheng completely put aside the troubles of last night, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of cheerful smiles.
I shook my head: "It's been a very quiet three years, just like all Dunhuang citizens. The years are quiet, living in peace, going to the Mogao Grottoes to paint every day, and in my spare time, I go to the museum to see paintings, go to the library to read books, and that's it. β
This is the truth, in the past three years, one of the things I have done desperately is to "enrich myself", from a layman who knows nothing about Dunhuang to half of the "Dunhuang Tong".
When Chinese talk about Dunhuang, they often compare it to Loulan, another ancient country that has been lost in the desert.
In the past, the 36 countries of the Western Regions were once famous, and became the key point of the Central Plains to the west, the city was prosperous, the camel caravans were endless, and the gold was everywhere in the eyes of the merchants of the East and the West, which could be called "the paradise outside the Saiwai".
Merchants are very profitable, and it is precisely because of the profit drive that they choose Loulan, a transit country for the circulation of goods and things. Profit is a double-edged sword, once Loulan can't make them make a heavy profit, they will immediately turn around.
Li, let Loulan live, but also make Loulan die.
Dunhuang is different, not only can bring benefits to the past merchants, but also retain its own unique cultural connotation, with Mogao Grottoes, Mingsha Mountain, Crescent Spring as the center, built a thousand years of immortal "Great Dunhuang".
The more you learn about the history of Dunhuang, the more you will be in awe of this ancient and young city.
Everyone in the world has heard of the name "Dunhuang Fragment", and I have read the text in the fragment intermittently in several private museums, and I have benefited greatly from even if it is only a few hundred pages of unwritten text.
So far, the "Dunhuang Fragments" are still incomplete, and two-thirds of them have been lost to the "Treasure Cave Catastrophe" caused by the Taoist priest Wang Yuanqi in the late Qing Dynasty, scattered all over the world, and become the treasure of private collectors.
In my opinion, the "Treasure Cave Catastrophe" can almost be regarded as another "book burning and pit Confucianism" in the history of Chinese culture, and the shame of the excellent traditional culture being cut off again. If overseas people of insight can pool human, material, and financial resources to recover all the fragments, return them to Dunhuang, and merge them into a relatively complete "Dunhuang fragment", then the history of the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Song and Yuan dynasties, and the Ming and Qing dynasties may be rewritten.
"I have to apologize again for the matter of the three extremes of the one. If we can't put an end to the scourge of hiding secrets, we won't be able to get out. As early as when I was on Hong Kong Island, I knew about the great name of Master Yu, who persistently pursued the greatest merit of 'eliminating disasters for all peoples', and indeed did a lot of great good deeds for Tibetan areas. I don't want good people to be hurt, that's the greatest evil in the world. As for the Tiejing King...... Gu Tingcheng smiled bitterly, "That is also a great benevolent person, in the past, the mainland suffered earthquakes one after another, and the Tiejing King has donated more than 100 times with a total amount of more than 100 million yuan, which is clearly written in the donation records of the Global Chinese Charity Federation." Although the two of them have no intersection in the past, they have one thing in common, that is, they have always dedicated themselves to the Chinese nation today and tomorrow, and they are models for all philanthropists. I am also Chinese, and if I allow the two sides to fight and eventually lose both, while I stand by and watch, then what is the difference between me and the foreign powers who sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight? β
I understood what Gu Qingcheng meant, and let her say it, just listening.
The focus of the conflict was on the baby, and if it weren't for him, the Master of Immortal Jade would not have brought the Tibetan secret men to Dunhuang.
Similarly, if it weren't for him, the Iron Mirror King would not have been desperate for his woman, and almost even took the lives of the four masters under his command.
"Twenty-four hours, it's safe for now, isn't it?" I asked.
The two of us looked at the quartz clock hanging on the wall at the same time, and the hour hand pointed to eleven o'clock, which means that the "twenty-four hours of borrowing" we had told the Jade Master had passed a sixth, and there were only twenty hours left.
There is also a fresh air entrance in this room, which reminds me again of the baby who was put into the ventilation duct by Gu Qingcheng.
I pointed upward, Gu Tingcheng understood, and responded in a low voice: "Brother Fei, I'm waiting for news from the Iron Mirror Kingββ"
She flicked her nails, and the smile on her face faded.
Mr. Huo and the other four are loyal and courageous, but their strength is mediocre, and they cannot become the solid arm of the Iron Mirror King. I even suspect that even if they are only allowed to do the work of ventilation and communication, it may not be beneficial.
"I just hope it's good news!" The corners of Gu Qingcheng's mouth twitched, and he couldn't laugh, only bitterness.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, this is a philosophical certainty.
"Are you waiting for the female doctor and nurse who delivered the baby with you?" I asked.
Gu Tingcheng nodded: "Yes, when I was investigated by the police, I had already asked the hospital for verification, and the name on the female doctor's work card was Ju Yan, and there was indeed this person in the obstetrics department of the hospital." The female nurse who used the mobile phone to record the video was called Lin Ting, and the other female nurse was called Fan Jing, and the hospital admitted that these were all official nurses of the hospital......"
I have a hunch that what Gu Tingcheng hopes to appear will never appear.
Right now, we are in a contrarian trend, our luck is so bad that any plan may fail, even if it is a safe thing, there will be a 1 in 10 unexpected change.
