Three days later, Linhai High-tech Zone.

The square in front of a large mall was full of pedestrians, young couples on dates, parents with young children, and students hanging out to have fun together.

By the artificial fountain in the center of the square, Chu Xue was holding a sun umbrella and a mobile phone in one hand, looking around from time to time.

"Where are you? I've arrived, how can I not see you. ”

She has a soft face, fair skin, and is wearing a black T-shirt and white cropped pants, a simple combination that perfectly sets off the curves of her body, showing the beauty of youth to the fullest.

Coupled with just the right pair of glasses, it adds a rare bookish atmosphere, and standing there attracts the attention of many males.

"Beauty, make a friend?"

Just as Chu Xue was on the phone, a flirtatious voice sounded behind her.

Hearing this voice, a trace of disgust suddenly flashed in Chu Xue's eyes, although it was not the first time she had encountered such a situation.

But for this kind of person, she has already had the experience of coping.

"Sorry, I'm waiting for my boyfriend ......"

It's just that before she could finish speaking, when she saw the person who spoke, the politeness on her face suddenly disappeared.

"Death to you!"

Chu Xue raised the sun umbrella in her hand and hit Li Mian, gritting her teeth with a face.

Li Mian laughed, dodged as soon as he pulled out, and teased: "When did Chu Meinu talk about her boyfriend?" Don't introduce to old classmates? ”

What answered him was Chu Xue's white eyes.

"Where were you just now, why didn't I see you?" Chu Xue asked.

"Well, I bought something in the mall, so I can't go there empty-handed." Li Mian lifted the bag on the handle.

"I was at the exit of the mall when you called me, but you kept staring at the road, so you didn't see me."

"No wonder, I said why can't I find you......"

Chu Xue was also carrying something in her hand, which was the fruit she had bought from the neighborhood when she set off.

The two of them said as they walked towards the side of the road.

They went to visit Lu Qianqian's father today, and gave Lu Qianqian the money that Li Mourning "fundraised" from.

This matter was agreed a few days ago, but Chu Xue went out on a trip with her family at that time, and she didn't return to Linhai City until yesterday, so it was delayed until today.

Came to the side of the road and stopped a taxi, both of them sat in the back seat, and after reporting the name of the hospital, the driver stepped on the accelerator and drove in the direction of the hospital.

"By the way, did you ask about Lu Qianqian's new number?" Li Mian asked.

"No, I didn't know if I asked a few classmates."

Chu Xue shook her head.

She only came back from the field yesterday and didn't spend much time on it.

"I don't know if she's in the hospital at this time." Li Mian looked at his phone, it was less than half past nine in the morning.

If you have Lu Qianqian's mobile phone number, you can call to confirm.

"It should be, it's not time for the hotel to be busy." Chu Xue leaned over and looked at the time on his phone, "Anyway, her father must be in the hospital." ”

As she spoke, the girl's body fragrance also came.

Feeling the softness on his arm, Li Mian couldn't help but glance at Chu Xue.

Chu Xue also realized that the contact between her and Li Mian's bodies seemed to be a little too close, her face flushed slightly, and she quickly sat back in place.

The car was quiet for a while.

Ten minutes later, the taxi arrived at the hospital and stopped on the side of the road outside the hospital's main gates.

The two got out of the taxi with their things and walked all the way to the inpatient department, which was located behind the outpatient building.

This morning is the busiest time for the hospital, full of patients and accompanying family members, and there is a long queue at the registration window of the outpatient building.

They quickly walked through the crowded outpatient building to the inpatient building at the back, and although there were not as many people in the inpatient department as the outpatient department, there were also many people who came and went.

In addition, this is still an old hospital building, built earlier with only three elevators, and the three elevators have to stop once on almost every floor, and the two of them waited for several minutes before the elevator came to the first floor.

If it weren't for Chu Xue by his side, Li Mian would have gone up to the eighth floor from the stairs.

They finally took the elevator to the eighth floor, and when they came to the last ward, they found that the bed was empty, wrapped in an antibacterial film that kept out dust and bacteria.

"What's going on...... Uncle Lou was discharged from the hospital? Chu Xue said strangely.

After saying that, she shook her head.

There is no such thing as terminal cancer, and there is no such thing as discharge, which is to rely on the hospital to give the patient a breath, and discharge is equivalent to announcing that he will give up treatment and wait for death at any time.

"Maybe it's a transfer to another hospital." Li Mian looked at the empty bed, "I'll go find someone to ask." ”

He was about to go to the nurse's desk to ask questions, when a nurse came up from the opposite side.

"Hello." Li Mian called out to the nurse and pointed to the hospital bed, "May I ask, is the patient on that bed transferred?" His surname is Lu, and he lived here half a month ago. ”

The nurse looked in the direction he was pointing, and when she saw the bed, her face changed slightly, and when Li Mian said the patient's last name, the change was even more obvious.

"You're ......" The nurse looked at the two of them with some hesitation.

"We are classmates of the patient's daughter." Li Mian watched her expression change, and faintly felt a bad feeling.

Hearing that they were just Lu Qianqian's classmates, the nurse's expression softened slightly, she looked left and right, and waited for a patient's family member to walk over before she whispered, "That patient is not transferred...... He's dead. ”

Li Mian's face couldn't help but change.

"What?"

Chu Xue exclaimed in a low voice, her face shocked and caught off guard.

"Didn't you say you could hold out for a while? How did you ...... so fast?"

The last time she came to visit the hospital, she talked to Lu Qianqian about this and knew that Lu Qianqian's father could last at least two more months, and if the situation was optimistic, the time could be longer.

But now only about half a month has passed.

"The patient was suicidal." The nurse shook her head, "On the second night, he climbed out of the hospital bed and pushed open the window......"

She didn't say any more.

“…… Suicide, why? Chu Xue subconsciously asked this, but after saying it, she herself was silent.

Because this question doesn't need an answer.

Li Mian couldn't help but look at the window in the ward, as if he saw the resolute back of a terminally ill middle-aged man who struggled to climb from the ground to the window in order not to drag down his daughter.

"Do you have my classmate's contact number here?" Li Mian took a deep breath and suppressed the emotions in her heart, "She changed her mobile phone before, and we don't have her contact information." ”

"Yes, come with me."

The nurse turned and walked forward, followed by the two of them.

Soon came to the nurse's table, the nurse rummaged underneath for a while, and after a while, she found Lu Qianqian's contact information.

There were more people at the nurse's desk, and the two came to the uninhabited corridor.

"You're coming, I'm coming?" Li Mian looked at his mobile phone number and looked at Chu Xue.

"I'll do it anyway."

Chu Xue took out her mobile phone and dialed the mobile phone number.

It may be that the phone is not around, and it took more than 20 seconds for someone to connect the phone.

"Hey, Qianqian? Yes, it's me...... Don't cry, don't cry......"

Before he could say a few words, the sound of crying rang on the other side of the phone.

Chu Xue was still persuading, but after persuading, her own eyes turned red and she sobbed.

Li Mian leaned over the windowsill and quietly looked at the scene below.

The height of each floor of the inpatient building is about four meters, and the height of the eight-story building is nearly 30 meters, and the height of 30 meters is in the air.

Not to mention patients with advanced cancer whose body functions are almost destroyed.

Life is fragile.

Such a thought popped up inexplicably in Li Mian's heart.

The two girls didn't talk for too long, or not as long as Li Mourning imagined, and they ended the call in less than twenty minutes or so.

After making the call, Chu Xue still had red eyes.

"Where is Lu Qianqian now? Is it still that hotel? Li Mourning handed Chu Xue a pack of paper that he was carrying in his pocket.

"She's not in that hotel anymore." Chu Xue shook her head.

"She has a cousin who is abroad and is going to take her abroad after she finishes cooking for her father, and her cousin will also help her pay off the foreign debts she owes."

"She also has a cousin abroad?" Li Mian was slightly stunned, "Why haven't I heard her say it before?" ”

It sounds quite rich, and if you can help Lu Qianqian pay off the hundreds of thousands of debts at once, it is definitely impossible for ordinary families to do it so simply.

But why didn't such a rich cousin appear before, otherwise Lu Qianqian's father would not have committed suicide by jumping off the building.

"Her cousin has been abroad for more than ten years, and he has never heard from him, and he has always thought he is dead." Chu Xue said: "I just returned to Linhai on the morning of the 4th, and then I knew that he was still alive. ”

Li Mourning was speechless for a while.

Lu Qianqian and her father committed suicide by jumping off the building on the night of the second, and her cousin, who had not heard from her for many years on the morning of the fourth, returned to Linhai, just over a day apart.

It's really a creation.

"It's already ten o'clock, do you want to go back directly, or do you want to have lunch together later before leaving?"

Coming to the side of the road outside the hospital gate, Chu Xue looked at the time of her mobile phone, glanced at Li Mourning, and deliberately said in a casual tone.

It's only ten o'clock, and of course it's too early for lunch, so I have to wait until eleven or twelve o'clock.

As for the middle hour or two, naturally the two of them can arrange it at will.

It's a pity that her mind is on the wrong target, and Li Mian is completely unaware of the other meaning in her words.

He glanced down at the time, shook his head and said, "I have other things, since I don't have to go to see Lu Qianqian, then I'll leave first, and I'll invite you to dinner next time I have a chance." ”

As he spoke, he waved to a taxi that had just gotten off the passengers, and the taxi slowly drove over.

“…… Oh well, next time. ”

Chu Xue had no choice but to wave her hand.

After Li Meng got into the taxi and the taxi drove away, she stomped her feet, gritted her teeth and scolded Li Mourning in a low voice.

……

……

Li Mourning didn't pretend to be stupid as Chu Xue thought, but really didn't notice the hint in her words.

He did have other things to do, and it was quite important.

That's the acquisition of legacy.

After a few days of urging, Yang Yan finally gave him a definite answer and promised to introduce him to a seller who shipped "goods".

Originally, it was agreed to meet in the afternoon, but since it was already okay in the morning, Li Mourning did not plan to delay it until then.

However, Yang Yan has not been in Linhai City for the past few days and has gone out to do errands.

Originally, he meant to let Li Mian delay for a few days and wait for him to come back and go to see the seller who shipped the goods, but Li Mian didn't plan to wait and was ready to complete the transaction by himself.

"Xiao Mourning, you are Wang Shitang's nephew, and I have been friends with Wang Shitang for many years, and I treat you as a junior."

On the phone, Yang Yan said earnestly.

"The water in the line of relics is really deep, you don't know how you were cheated in the past, it's best to wait until I return to Linhai in three days, and then accompany you to go over and have a look, and help you palm your eyes, so as not to be slaughtered by others."

Li Mian smiled and said, "Uncle Yang don't worry, I'll just go over and take a look, and it's not certain whether to buy it or not." ”

He can judge the authenticity of the remnants by sensing the aura of potential, and he doesn't have to worry about being deceived at all.

Or that the authenticity of the remnant doesn't matter to him at all, even if it's a real remnant, it's useless to him if it doesn't have potential.

"I just had a phone call with the seller, and he said that he only accepts cash transactions, and he said that it has always been like this, is it true?" Li Mian asked.

"That's true...... I'll make it clear, little mourning. ”

Yang Yan hesitated for a moment over there and said, "They are making dead people's money, that is, robbing tombs, and none of them are clean, so they only accept cash."

These people are the easiest to find good goods, but it is also dangerous to do business with them, because many people are unruly and like to play black hands.

If you hadn't been urging me, I would never have introduced you to this kind of person. ”

Li Mian was stunned.

It turned out to be a tomb robber, no wonder only cash transactions were accepted.

Tomb robbery in reality is not as beautiful as depicted in film and television works, it is just a group of unscrupulous criminals for profit, many of whom have human lives on their hands and are dangerous people.

"Thank you Uncle Yang for reminding me, I'll pay attention."

After learning the information he wanted, Li Mian hung up the phone and looked forward to the next transaction.

Since the seller is a tomb robber, the chances of selling the remnants are much greater.

As for the danger? That's not something he needs to think about.

Twenty minutes later.

The taxi pressed over the sinkhole on the road, splashed a large amount of sewage and drove into the distance, Li Mourning carried a black satchel on his shoulder, took out his mobile phone and dialed the seller's number.

This is a very famous one in Qingyu District, an urban village that is said to be demolished every year, and cannot be demolished every year.

However, there are very few locals living here, and most of them are migrant workers who live in rented houses, and the people in it are mixed and very chaotic.
