Lying on the hospital bed and looking out of the window, you can first see the building that has just risen, and then the sky above, the sunny sky in the afternoon is very refreshing, clean as if there is no slag - there is still there, that is Chicago, the shadow of the clouds under the sun covers this ocean-like chaotic city, the black deep sea gurgles and floats a lot of sounds, all kinds of cars, construction sites, noisy human voices, and news broadcasts on the big screen, all of which blur the boundaries between the quiet and noisy winter afternoons.

With this kind of temperament, even God needs to take a nap, and Lin Nian is no exception.

What woke him up from his afternoon nap after a short time was a temperature, like a small slit in the curtain shining on his arm, between the hot and the warm could not be ignored, although he didn't deliberately find it, the temperature made you open your eyes. You know, he's bathed in light, what could be hotter than the sun?

It was the sight, Helena's curious gaze.

Lin Nian opened his eyes and saw the girl in front of him, and for a moment he thought of the marble sculpture. Don't get me wrong, when he mentions marble sculptures, he doesn't mean to dwell on the formal beauty of Venus and the Virgin Mary with broken arms, but only the beauty of sculpture that can weave a thin veil out of hard stone and a round flesh.

It's like God coinciding with today's temperament when he created things, so it makes sense to take a nap, and when he put down the paintbrush, he inadvertently left a strip on Helena's face, making her as beautiful as a hazy veil, like the texture of the flesh, like a dream that Lin Nian had during his nap during his lunch break.

What a beautiful girl.

For some reason, Helena reminded Lin Nian of the cheerleader of the basketball team when she used to attend Shilan High School, with long legs and a thin waist and a beautiful female monster, between the ups and downs of a ballet at the school celebration party, kicking, spinning, and lowering her waist, beautiful like a swan hidden in light and shadow.

He couldn't help but compare Helena in front of him with the girl, but he regretted to find that for some reason he couldn't remember the girl's appearance.

In the ward, Helena and Lin Nian both sat on the hospital bed and chatted, and after chatting a few words, Lin Nian found that Helena seemed to be a little restrained, and her speech was not so sharp, just like considering the position of knives and forks at a banquet, carefully adjusting the angle, for fear of losing etiquette.

In her words, "like" is "like", and "hate" is "not very liked". "Good" is "good" and "bad" is "not too good".

Lin Nian suddenly felt that this girl didn't look like a cheerleader, she was actually more like a little goddess who was far away from the sky, because the little goddess spoke to herself like this, the wording was very tactful, like a run-in, adapting to the gap between the gears, trying to maintain the length and temperature of the dialogue, more like making soup than a dialogue, and there were star anise and cinnamon floating inside the lid, and the more you cooked, the more fragrant it became.

So their topic is bland and pouting.

"It's a nice day – it's a sunny day, and I like it."

"Are you feeling better? I see you're in a wheelchair - it's better, but your knee hurts. ”

"Do you like to read? - I read it, I like "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and "Notre Dame de Paris", and I also read popular literature. ”

"Do you watch basketball? - I don't think much of it, but I was a cheerleader and cheered for the high school basketball team. ”

"Playing the piano and violin."

"Look, I go to the cinema with friends on the weekend, and I love the recently released "Lovers of Flowers."

"Listen, I love music, especially TaylorSwift's songs."

Lin Nian and Helena talked a lot of rambling things, they didn't seem to have any barriers from the beginning of their meeting, hobbies, living habits, and strengths, Helena answered everything, she looked at the clinical boy with a shallow smile on her face from beginning to end.

Lin Nian learned that Helena is indeed a very smart girl, versatile, so she has a lot of boys in school, her mother, who is a Victoria's Secret model, often tells her that fire, anti-theft, and anti-classmates, staying in the same pig pen are all some arch cabbage goods, if you want to find a husband, it is best to be like your father, holding the book of Hollywood scripts and walking into the pig pen with her head held high and asking for weight one by one, your mother and I were picked away because of her good appearance, Now you can give birth to you, a little monster with a natural appearance.

When Helena said this, Lin Nian couldn't help laughing, and Helena also giggled, looking like a very easy-going girl next door.

"Lin Nian, huh? Your name is a little strange, don't you have an English name? Helena folded her hands on her lower abdomen and asked Lin Nian with a smile.

"I..." Lin Nian paused, because he didn't have an English name, but his character at this time was a Chinese-American who had lived in Brooklyn, New York for a long time, and he should have a local name.

"Richard, your English name." Lin Nian's ears suddenly sounded the voice of instructor Ryder, and only then did he realize that all the things he was chatting with Helena in this ward were monitored by the executive department on the other side of the wireless headset, and they immediately rescued him when he encountered a problem.

"Richard, you can call me Richard." Lin Nian said: "My grandfather has always lived in Chinatown, and he likes Chinese culture very much, so he has always called me by my Chinese name, so Lin Nian is also my common name." ”

"Richard, what kind of illness did you get hospitalized with?"

"Diabetes caused complications, the doctor said that I needed to be hospitalized for observation for a few days, and the other wards were full, my mother finally booked a bed for me, but I didn't expect my patient to be such a beautiful girl as you" Lin Nian smiled at Helena.

"You... Do you know what happened yesterday at the hospital? Helena paused visibly, then lowered her voice and asked cautiously, "Are you 'their' person?" ”

"Yesterday's incident? Did something happen in the hospital yesterday? Who are 'they'? Lin Nian didn't look like he was reacting.

"No... It's nothing. Helena looked at Lin Nian's young and somewhat excessive face, and suddenly quieted down, and her eyes showed no idea whether she was lost or happy.

Lin Nian noticed that the other party was sitting on the bed and secretly looking at him with his spare eyes as if he was hesitating something, and sure enough, after a while, Helena seemed to have the courage to look at Lin Nian: "Richard, it's a pleasure to chat with you, but I think... You should change wards, maybe a different hospital. ”

"Why? ... What's wrong? ”

"Bad things are happening here, and maybe bad things will continue to happen." Helena whispered, her overlapping hands silently clenching together.

"Something not so good?"

Helena didn't speak, she seemed hesitant and confused, she didn't know how to tell the boy what happened to her in the hospital last night, if she told the truth, would the other party be afraid?

"Bad things will pass, don't worry, everyone has bad times." Lin Nian shook his head with a smile and said, "Since we are all sitting here and chatting now, it means that the bad things have passed." ”

Helena stared blankly at the boy on the hospital bed, the sun shone on the boy's side face, and she had the illusion that the boy was glowing for a moment, which was a wonderful feeling, a sense of reassurance, and for some reason just watching the darkness in the heart of the boy caused by a nightmare quietly dispersed.

"Let's talk about something else, didn't you say you could play the piano? Actually, I'll also have some, which are your favorite tunes? ”

"Schubert and Chopin, what about you?"

"I was born in the wild road, and I was born in Richard Clayderman. Do you know the wedding of your dreams? ”

"It's hard not to know that anyone who can play the piano can play it."

"That's one of the only tunes I can play."

"I can teach you other tunes if I have the chance!"

"The 'S' class has already dealt with 'Marita', although 'Marita' asked about his identity, this should be a subconscious move, and for now, 'Marita' is not suspicious of him." Ryder listened to the boys and girls chatting in the headphones and nodded.

"Should I say it's worthy of an 'S' class? To be able to gain the trust of the other party so quickly, I thought that in the current psychological situation of 'Marita', it would take two or three days for the two of them to talk. Goliath said, "But doesn't the murderer really suspect fraud?" After all, 'Marita' chose to stay here after the attempted murder rather than be discharged from the hospital in a panic. ”

"Of course he will suspect that there is an ambush in the hospital, but he will only think that the 'FBI' who has been chasing him is arranged, and he will probably be more than happy to accept the challenge." Ryder said: "There must be a guardian by the side of the bait, otherwise it will be a dereliction of duty for our entire executive department to be swallowed, and the murderer will inevitably bear the brunt of the identity of Lin Nian, who is in the same ward as 'Marita', and he will carefully observe Lin Nian's every move and 'Marita''s reaction to Lin Nian." ”

"If you want the murderer to attack 'Marita' again, you must dispel his vigilance, Lin Nian's character must be disguised as an ordinary person, and he must first deceive 'Marita' before he can deceive the murderer." Ryder looked at Lin Nian on the screen: "It's fortunate that the 'S' class is very young, and no one will associate him with the 'agent', which is his natural advantage and our advantage." ”

"When the murderer can't help it, Lin Nian, who is hiding next to 'Marita', will take action to contain it, and we will rush to collect the net." Goliath said.

"The next step is to see how patient the killer is, either as a patient or as a doctor, because he needs to keep an eye on his delicious prey and the changes in his surroundings." Ryder said: "Now that Lin Nian, the guardian, has appeared, the murderer may have some movement tonight, so that all the teams are ready to watch all night." ”
