Chapter 2: Tracking
Ten minutes later, the taxi stopped at the entrance of the hospital.
After Wei Guo gave the money, he quickly opened the door and got out of the car, looked up and saw that there were three words "inpatient department" at the gate of a building opposite, rushed in, saw that the elevator had not yet arrived, many people were waiting, looked left and right, found the ladder, rushed up directly, rushed to the fifth floor in one breath, came to the service desk and asked: "Nurse, where is bed 505?" ”
"Brother?"
A crisp voice came from behind.
Wei Guo listened to the familiar voice, and looked back in surprise that it was his little sister Wei Qin, and hurriedly asked, "Little sister, our mother?" ”
"You just fell asleep, why did you come back?" Wei Qin asked in surprise, a pair of beautiful eyes full of bloodshot eyes, revealing a thick haggardness.
"Let's not talk about this yet, what's wrong with Mom?" Wei Guo said eagerly.
"Follow me." Wei Qin said, pulling Wei Guo towards the corridor.
The two soon came to a room, Wei Qin gently pushed the door in, there was a person lying on the hospital bed, covered with a quilt, with an oxygen tube inserted in his nose, and his arm was exposed outside, hanging on a drip, frowning slightly, obviously not sleeping well.
Wei Guo stepped forward quickly, looked closely at the person on the hospital bed, his temples were white, his face was haggard, he was obviously much older than the last time, his heart hurt, there was a touch of dampness in his tiger eyes, and he was about to speak, Wei Qin raised his fingers, made a silent movement, and pointed outside, Wei Guo nodded, and the two walked outside and closed the door with their hands.
Not long after, the two came to the end of the corridor, which was a balcony, and Wei Guo asked eagerly, "What's wrong with Mom?" ”
"Worry becomes a disease." Wei Qin hurriedly said.
"What do you mean by worrying about illness?" Wei Guo interrupted.
"Listen to me, don't worry." Wei Qin continued: "A month ago, my father suddenly disappeared, and I reported the case, but the police couldn't find it, as if the world had evaporated, my mother couldn't bear the blow, and I missed our father, so I fell ill. ”
"Dad is missing? What's going on? Wei Guo was shocked and asked.
"I don't know, my mother called me at the time, saying that my father didn't come home, I hurried home to understand the situation, my mother said that my father went to talk to Uncle Wei, you know, they are good friends who have played since childhood, and they often chat, I called, Uncle Wei said that he did go to him, but he went back after sitting for an hour, I called the police, but the police have not found any clues so far." Wei Qin said.
Wei Guo's brows tightened, and he immediately realized the problem and pondered.
"Dad is in good health, he doesn't get lost, and he doesn't have dementia, how can he not find his way home, something must have happened, but Mom fell ill not long after, I called you, but I couldn't get through, by the way, why did you come back?" Wei Qin asked rhetorically.
"Retired." Wei Guo said in deep thought, continuing to think about what Wei Qin had just said.
"Retired? It's better for you to come back, or I don't know what to do. Wei Qin said.
"You've worked hard all this time, damn your body?" Wei Guo said worriedly.
"It's mainly heart disease, but she knows that you're back, maybe it's a lot better." Wei Qin said.
"If you don't find our father, my mother's illness won't be cured." Wei Guo said in a deep voice.
"What do you mean?" Wei Qin asked in surprise.
"In this way, you take care of your mother here, and I will go to Uncle Wei, I have an intuition that our father's affairs are not simple." Wei Guo said in a deep voice, without waiting for Wei Qin to agree, he hurriedly left with his own salute, leaving a strong back.
After going downstairs, Wei Guo stopped a taxi, reported an address, and continued to think about what Wei Qin said just now, a person cannot disappear for no reason, and he is not a patient, nor is he confused, the police have no clues, there are only two possibilities: one is killed, and the other is no longer in this country.
Along the way, Wei Guo carefully thought about various possibilities, but there were too few clues.
Half an hour later, the taxi came to the door of an office building, parked, Wei Guo got off after giving money, walked into the lobby, took the elevator upstairs, and continued to think, and when the elevator arrived, Wei Guo came out, looked at the guide sign on the wall, and walked to the side.
Not long after, Wei Guo came to the door of an office, and there were three crystal words on the background board of the company's service desk: Deyunxuan.
Wei Guo pushed the door in, and there was a beautiful woman at the front desk, wearing a cheongsam, who got up and asked politely, "Sir, do you have something?" ”
"I'm looking for Wei Deyun, he's my uncle." Wei Guo said.
"Defending the country?" A neutral man's voice came.
Wei Guo turned his head and saw that it was a middle-aged man in a Tang costume, of medium height, with a calm face, holding a small teapot in his hand, just the person he was looking for, and quickly said, "Uncle Wei, hello." ”
"It's true that you're back, go to my office to talk." Wei Deyun said in surprise.
Wei Guo faintly heard that there was something in the words, agreed, and followed.
Walking through an office area, Wei Guo saw that there were more than a dozen people busy with something, so he didn't ask much, and followed to a room, Wei Deyun pushed the door in, pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit down and talk, I'll make you tea." ”
"Thank you, Uncle Wei." Wei Guo said gratefully and sat down on the sofa.
Wei Deyun looked outside the door, and after making sure that no one was following, he locked the door, sat opposite Wei Guo, skillfully boiled water, and asked casually, "When are you coming back?" ”
"I just came back." Wei Guo hurriedly said.
"Came here for your dad's business, right?" Wei Deyun asked.
"Uncle Wei, what do you know?" Wei Guo asked straight to the point.
"You kid, smarter than your sister." Wei Deyun pointed at Wei Guo and smiled, his face was full of relief, and continued: "If your sister came over, I would definitely not say anything, so as not to hurt her, you are different, you have been shrewd since you were a child, very observant, good at analysis, did you feel something?" ”
"It's impossible for my dad to disappear for no reason, and he has been missing for so long, he definitely didn't hide by himself, and the police haven't found him for so long, which means that he is not in the country, or he has been killed." Wei Guo said in a deep voice.
"Yes, you analyzed it very well, in fact, I don't know anything, I don't know what to tell you, so you can ask, you can ask whatever you want, I will tell you everything I know." Wei Deyun smiled with satisfaction.
"What has my dad been talking to you about the most lately?" The Patriotic Organization asked with a good idea.
"It's not those things, your dad is an expert in cultural relics, and he talks about where the ancient tombs were found, what precious antiques have been unearthed, what major breakthroughs have been made in culture, and so on." Wei Deyun said.
Wei Guo didn't know what to ask, he had no clue, thought about it, and continued: "Is there anything to talk about the most?" Or where do you frequent? Or what was unusual about my dad the last time he came, what did he say? ”
"The most we talk about is the ancient tomb, as for the abnormality?" Wei Deyun said, pondered, thought for a while, and suddenly said: "He has been going to Suocheng often recently, saying that he has found some clues to the disappeared ship of your ancestors. ”
"What do you mean?" Wei Guo asked in surprise, he had never heard of this.
"It's your Wei family, what kind of general was in the city during the Ming Dynasty, I don't know the specifics, I got a boat to go to sea, loaded with very valuable antiques, cultural relics, and then the ship disappeared, your dad mentioned this last time, and I talked about it occasionally before, I didn't care, recently he often went to the city wall, saying that he was looking for something, your dad often chattered, I was used to it, you don't ask me I really can't remember." Wei Deyun said.
"Did he leave you and go to the city again?" Wei Guo analyzed in surprise.
"Then I don't know." Wei Deyun said.
"Uncle Wei, lend me your car for a few days." Wei Guo said.
"Take it, it's in the parking lot downstairs, if there is anything I can help with, just ask, I'll play with your dad until I get older, and I'm closer than my own brother, now that you're back, I can't continue to pretend to be stupid about this." Wei Deyun agreed.
"Thank you, Uncle Wei, then I'll go first, and I'll look for you if there's anything." Wei Guo said gratefully.
"Okay, be careful." Wei Deyun agreed, got up to see him off, his eyes full of concern.
