Chapter 18: Luminous Bodies

"Doctor, can I give her morphine?"

The woman sat on the chair, and the doctor in front of her did not answer her directly, but silently looked at the case list, thought about it and said embarrassedly: "At present, the patient has not taken the initiative to take the medicine, nor has he said that the pain is unbearable. ”

"But she was in pain at night, and every morning I saw that her lips were broken, and it wasn't until I pretended to sleep last night that I knew that she was shaking in pain at night, so I bit her lip so hard. I saw that her forearms were full of broken nails. ”

The woman buried her head, her hands clutched tightly at her trousers, her hair neatly coiled behind her head, wearing a new trench coat that was full of unironed folds, clean nails with traces of faded nail polish, and shiny black martin boots on her feet, but loosely tied with laces.

"I'm sorry, although the family mentioned this, we still need to consider the patient's opinion and actual condition." The doctor pushed his glasses helplessly, not looking at the woman's face.

"However, I think you can persuade your mother, after all, the reality is that this is the case, and our medical treatment is limited, so it may be more important to be better for yourself at this time."

"Thank you, doctor, excuse me." The woman got up and left, her fingers clenching the payment slip tightly, and the pinch was deformed.

The doctor watched the other party close the door, sighed, but did not pause in his hand, and opened the next medical record.

The hospital is like this, life and death are here, they are all so ordinary, and they are all so powerless, if they can, Xingjian Weibu hopes never to set foot in such a place again. It's a pity that the familiar smell of disinfectant water broke her wish.

Hoshimi opened his eyes, his eyes were full of white, terrifyingly white, so white that he was biting bones, and he pounced on her like a beast, and the next second he was going to bite her bones and lick her flesh.

She immediately closed her eyes, and remembered the familiar ward, the doctor with glasses, his small arm full of wounds, forcing her to open her eyes again.

"You're awake! Are you alright, Mihoho! ”

Hoshimi looked at the round face that appeared in front of him, if the angel bathed in holy light, with feathers floating around him, descended to the world, and lightly raised his staff to drive away the evil beast.

It's just that the angel in front of him inevitably got too close, so close that it was almost close to the tip of her nose, and all her breath fell on her face, which was a little itchy.

"Ikuta, why are you so close!" Hoshimi reached out from under the covers and pressed his hand against her chin, trying to push her away.

"Don't move! And needles on hand! Ikuta carefully took her hand and gently placed it on the soft quilt, watching the pale red slowly disappear into the hose before letting go of his hand and exhaling.

"Why are you so nervous? I'm fine, you see how scared you look. Hoshimi raised his other hand and pointed at Ikuta, whose face was a little pale, and smiled.

"You're embarrassed to say it! It's all your fault, I obviously promised Aunt Mai Trin to take good care of you, but you were admitted to the hospital because of a fever, and I didn't know how to tell her. Ikuta's face was sad, and his anxious hand grabbed his hair.

"I don't know how to say it, don't say it, it's just a fever, my brain tells me that there is no problem, I'm so awake now, can I go back after losing this in a while?"

Ikuta saw that she was about to raise his hand to touch the infusion tube again, so he immediately held her down, and gently pressed his index finger on the back of her hand uneasily, like a vigilant sentry watching the enemy's movements at any time.

"Alright, I promise I won't move. Tell me, how long am I going to be here? ”

Ikuta didn't take his fingers away, "The nurse just came and said that your fever has subsided, and you can go back after this infusion." ”

"Back to the dorm?"

"Home! Are you dizzy? Forgot that tomorrow is a day off? Do you know how long you have been sleeping like a little pig, and you have been frowning and holding Nana Min tightly, if you don't need an infusion and have to break your hands away, you don't know that you fainted and still have so much strength. ”

"Holding Nanamin? You mean Hashimoto-san? Hoshimi thought back to the time when he fainted, but he didn't remember it at all.

"You've been sleeping with others for at least half an hour, and you're embarrassed to say honorifics."

As he spoke, as if he wanted to help Nana Hashimoto not get angry, Ikuta's index finger silently pressed the back of Hoshimi's hand.

"Shhh Why are you suddenly pushing hard! ”

"I'm here to avenge Nanamin." Ikuta looked at her with awe.

"What revenge? Even if it's revenge, what's your business? What kind of revenge do you have? ”

"Even if you faint yourself, you actually hurt others and fall, but fortunately, the doctor checked and said that Nanami is fine, otherwise you will be miserable, and you will almost have to pay a terrible price."

"Did I hurt Hashimoto-san to fall? Is she really okay? Do I need to change to another hospital for a check-up? Hoshimi raised his left hand to cover his eyes and smiled bitterly, "Am I a disaster star?" ”

"No, the doctors have said that Nanami is fine, but because I take care of you, she will go back first."

"Sure enough, I'm really unlucky, and I have to be taken care of by you."

Hoshimi silently turned his head to the other side and looked out the window in distraction, the sky covered with a haze, as gloomy as a gray top cover.

"What's wrong with being taken care of by me! I was kind enough to stay and take care of you, but you didn't appreciate it! ”

Ikuta reached out and pinched Hoshimi's cheek, forcing her to turn her head to look at herself again.

"Okay, thank you so much, Ikuta-sama, thanks to you I can live in this world completely."

"There's no need to exaggerate, I'm just doing my best."

Hearing that the other party finally affirmed his contribution, Ikuta curled the corners of his mouth and sat back in his chair.

"So what did you do?"

"I ...... I slept with you all afternoon. ”

"And then? Did you also eat the bento and Jin Chu cake prepared for me? ”

"How do you know!"

"You turn your head and look at the cabinet yourself, you eat my lunch and forget it, and you still keep the evidence of the crime, and put it there in such a grand manner."

"No, I'm just hungry, I'm very experienced!"

"What experience? Surely it's not the experience of caring for people, right? Hoshimi was full of distrust of Ikuta's words.

"That's not it, I'm going to be hospitalized, you don't know, I've been hospitalized with broken bones, and I have four ankles."

"Is that something to be proud of?"

Hoshimi thought of the picture of Ikuta lying weakly on the hospital bed with his legs in a plaster cast, and felt a little funny, and the corners of his mouth curled up and quipped.

"How not!"

The clouds outside the window dissipated, and the warm sunshine finally waited for the opportunity, rushing to the world and sprinkling the earth.
