After walking for a while, Duan Zilian came to a waiting station, stood next to the bus stop sign for a while, and then got on a bus.

There were still a lot of people on the car, and the seats were full, so Duan Zilian had no choice but to grab the handrails and stand in the aisle, looking at the scenery outside the window idly.

While the bus was moving, Duan Zilian saw water droplets appear on the window, and when he looked closely, he found that it had begun to rain lightly outside.

Seeing this, Duan Zi couldn't help muttering: "It's actually going to rain, and I didn't bring an umbrella, it's really unlucky, forget it, it's just a light rain anyway." ”

More than ten or twenty minutes later, the bus stopped at a waiting station, Duan Zilian got off from behind, stood in the waiting station to avoid the rain, and watched the bus go farther and farther.

I don't know if it's an illusion, it's raining in the cold weather, Duan Zilian feels that the temperature seems to be getting lower than when he first went out, and when he exhales, he can clearly see the cold air floating in front of his eyes.

Seeing that the rain didn't seem to have the intention of stopping, Duan Zi sighed helplessly: "Forget it, the rain is not heavy anyway, just go over like this, anyway, the clothes can be waterproof, there is no problem." ”

Talking to himself, Duan Zilian put on the hat on his cotton coat, walked out of the waiting station, braved the rain, walked briskly down the street, and walked in one direction.

At this time, there were many people who, like Duan Zilian, walked on the streets in the rain without bringing an umbrella.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Duan Zilian came to a hospital, entered the gate of the hospital, and came to the inpatient building of the hospital, only then did he take off his hat, and then patted the water droplets hanging on his clothes.

Taking the elevator and going up to the eighth floor, Duan Zilian looked at the house number, and then pushed the door into a ward, and a warm air mixed with disinfectant water and the smell of medicine immediately hit his face.

The air conditioning was on in the ward, so the temperature in the room was very comfortable, even if you didn't wear a cotton jacket.

Entering the ward, Duan Zilian looked at Zhong Yi, who had been lying in a coma on the hospital bed, and frowned suspiciously: "It's been more than half a month, why hasn't my mother woken up yet?" Could it be that if you are hit on the head by a heavy object, you will fall asleep for a long time? But that's too long, right? ”

More than half a month has passed, Zhong Yi's condition has long been stabilized, as early as a week ago, Zhong Yi was transferred from the intensive care unit to the ordinary ward.

However, what puzzled Duan Zilian was that it had been so long, Zhong Yi still had no signs of waking up, and had been unconscious, and the hospital could only continue to conduct further examinations, which made Duan Zilian have a vague bad premonition in his heart.

After sitting quietly next to the hospital bed for a while, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open, and Duan Zilian turned his head and saw a nurse and a middle-aged doctor in a white coat walking in.

Duan Zilian knew that doctor, he was Zhong Yi's attending physician, surnamed Wu, Duan Zilian called him Doctor Wu, he came and went, and he knew each other.

Seeing Duan Zilian, Dr. Wu was a little surprised, and then said to Duan Zilian: "I didn't expect you to be here, we are here to check on your mother, and by the way, change the potion." ”

"Well, do I need to avoid it?" Duan Zilian nodded, and saw that the nurse had a medicine bottle with an unknown potion in her hand, which was estimated to be used to give Zhong Yi a drip.

"No, it's just a simple check." Dr. Wu shook his head.

Then, under Duan Zilian's gaze, the nurse changed Zhong Yi's potion, while Dr. Wu took a small flashlight, opened Zhong Yi's eyelids, and looked at Zhong Yi's eyes.

It's just like Dr. Wu said, it's just a simple test.

After changing the potion for Zhong Yi, the nurse left, but Dr. Wu, who had finished the examination, called out Duan Zilian when he left.

"Dr. Wu, what's the matter?" Standing in the aisle outside the ward, Duan Zilian looked at Dr. Wu in front of him and asked suspiciously.

Doctor Wu sighed slightly: "I was going to inform you in a few days, but since you are here now, let's tell you." ”

"What's the matter?" Although he asked so, Duan Zilian already had a guess in his heart, after all, Dr. Wu was Zhong Yi's attending physician, and when he was called, he naturally wanted to tell him about Zhong Yi.

"I'm going to tell you bad news about your mother's situation." Dr. Wu replied, a slight look of regret on his face.

He had already guessed that Dr. Wu would tell him about Zhong Yi's situation, but Duan Zilian didn't expect this to be a bad news, so that he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, his heart beat faster, and his mood became a little nervous.

Duan Zilian couldn't help but start thinking crankily, wondering if Zhong Yi's injury had suddenly worsened, or something else.

However, cranky thinking would only make him more nervous and uneasy, Duan Zilian hurriedly forced himself to calm down, and said to Dr. Wu seriously: "Dr. Wu, about my mother's matter, just tell me directly, I'm mentally prepared." ”

"Then I'll just say it, you listen, but try to stay calm." Seeing that Duan Zilian was mentally prepared, Dr. Wu organized the language, and then told Duan Zilian about Zhong Yi's situation.

"Regarding the fact that your mother has been unconscious, I initially thought that she was just an ordinary coma with serious injuries, but then after many observations and examinations, I came to a conclusion that the reason why your mother has been unconscious is because she has become a vegetative person."

"Huh? Dr. Goh, you ...... What did you say in the end? Duan Zilian was stunned, as if he hadn't heard clearly, and asked uncertainly, but his heart was mixed, nervous, uneasy, and scared and fearful......

Looking at Duan Zilian, Dr. Wu let out a long sigh: "Judging from the current examination results, your mother is now in a vegetative state, so there is no sign of waking up." ”

Duan Zilian heard it very clearly this time, but it was precisely because he heard it so clearly that he was completely stunned, his eyes widened in horror, and his face showed a look of disbelief.

"Doctor, you...... Are you telling the truth? You...... Isn't that kidding? It's not funny at all......"

After a long while, Duan Zilian slowly came back to her senses, and at first thought that Dr. Wu was joking with herself.

After all, he knew very well what it meant to be a vegetative person, and he didn't dare to face it, or even believe that Zhong Yi had become a vegetative person.

You must know that Zhong Yi is now his only relative, and if Zhong Yi becomes a vegetative person, he doesn't know what he will do......

It's just that he was hit in the head by a heavy object, how did he become a vegetative person?

No way...... Not really, not really......

Although he tried his best to hypnotize himself in his heart, wanting to deny this fact, but looking at Dr. Wu's silent appearance, Duan Zilian knew that he was not joking.

Suddenly, Duan Zi's heart was like numbness, his face was pale, and he was even already a master of the six gods, Zhang Huang was at a loss, and his whole body was trembling slightly uncontrollably.

Seeing the change in Duan Zilian's expression from beginning to end, Dr. Wu shook his head, patted Duan Zilian's shoulder, and said seriously: "It's too complicated, you can't understand it, and I'm afraid you don't have the heart to listen to it now...... Anyway, I hope it's a misdiagnosis, but unfortunately, judging from the results of the test so far, your mother is indeed in a vegetative state now, and I think you know very well what it means to be vegetative......"

"I know this is going to hit you hard, but I hope you can hold on...... On the other hand, at least your mother is still alive and not out of the question...... That's all I have to say, calm yourself down......"

After comforting Duan Zilian, Dr. Wu sighed regretfully and left.

Duan Zilian stood in the aisle in a daze, uncontrollably recalling Dr. Wu's words, especially the words "vegetative person", which kept echoing in his mind.

Boom!!

After standing quietly for a while, Duan Zilian suddenly raised his hand and slammed it hard against the wall next to him, and the severe pain suddenly poured into his heart, and Duan Zilian came back to his senses.

With his head down, like a walking corpse, Duan Zilian re-entered the ward with heavy steps and sat down next to the bed.

"Why? Why is this happening? Why does our family always suffer misfortunes? Why does Heaven want such an unfair ......"

Duan Zilian's voice was low and choked, with a crying tone, his fists were clenched tightly, even if his nails pierced into his palms, he didn't feel the slightest.

Faced with the fact that Zhong Yi became a vegetative person, Duan Zilian felt that his spiritual pillar had been broken, he was grief-stricken, and he was completely panicked, he really didn't know what to do, and he could only powerlessly complain about the injustice of fate.

Dr. Wu is right, although Zhong Yi has become a vegetative person, at least he is still alive, but in Duan Zilian's opinion, from another point of view, what is the difference between being dead and dead?

What's more, although vegetative people have the possibility of waking up again, but this is full of too much uncertainty, if you are lucky, you can wake up, but if you are unlucky, you will fall asleep forever.

At this moment, Duan Zilian felt so helpless and desperate, and the air mixed with the smell of disinfectant and medicine was so choking, which made him a little out of breath, and even a feeling of suffocation.

"Mom......" looked at Zhong Yi on the hospital bed, but Duan Zilian couldn't say anything, her mouth was a little bitter, her heart was sour, her nose was sour, and tears slipped down her face silently......

At the same time, with the sound of "da-da-da", the rain outside the window fell even more......
