216 lost
When I woke up again, I was already lying in a hospital bed.
My head ached, my temples throbbed in bursts, and I felt like my head was about to explode, which was very uncomfortable. So I habitually tried to raise my right hand to rub my temple, but found that my right hand was locked by something. I lifted the quilt and saw that I had a pair of cold handcuffs on my right hand!
I was about to call someone, but then I noticed that there was a policeman sitting at the end of the bed. When he saw that I was awake, he stood up and said, "Don't move yet, I'll call the doctor." ”
I hurriedly asked him, "Then you can untie my handcuffs first!" What the hell is going on? ”
"Don't you remember what happened?" The police asked me rhetorically.
"I, I don't remember at all......" I hesitated.
There was no expression on the policeman's face, "You are now under the temporary control of our police on suspicion of arson." The next step is to wait for the results of the investigation before making a decision. So, you are still a suspect for the time being, and I can't open your handcuffs. ”
"Arson?" It was then that I seemed to remember the half of the candle and the warm light of the fire.
"Don't move yet, I'll call the doctor!" The policeman walked to the door, opened the door and shouted into the hallway for the doctor on duty to come.
I couldn't move my right hand, but my head still hurt, so I switched to my left hand to rub my temples. But when I touched my face, I realized that my eyebrows and half of my hair had been burned off!
I clutched my head in distress and kept thinking about what had happened. But there are not many memories I can recall now, except for the flames, which is the intense chill!
Even now, I still feel cold. I had to retract into the covers and wait for the doctor to come.
The doctor took my temperature and touched my forehead before saying, "Your illness is very rare!" When they brought you in, your skin was pale, your lips and earlobes were purple, your body was trembling slightly, and your heartbeat and breathing slowed significantly. Your blood pressure is low, you're unconscious, and you're in a complete coma! ”
"What disease do I have?"
"So far, we haven't been able to make a definitive diagnosis." "However, your most noticeable symptoms are very low skin surface temperatures and cold hands. When you were admitted to the hospital, your armpit temperature was measured at 3 degrees, but after the mouth temperature was measured instead, it showed that your internal body temperature was only about 20 degrees. If you were according to a normal person's physique, you should have died a long time ago at such a body temperature! ”
"So, will there be any after-effects?"
"I don't think so. We gave you salt water in time and rewarmed you with blankets and insulation. Your body temperature has now recovered to 31 degrees, and although it is still hypothermia, it is out of danger! ”
I understood everything the doctor said, and I knew the reason for it. I guess it was the period of hot and cold that disrupted my body's thermoregulatory system.
Alas, speaking of which, I didn't go mad and die at that time, so I was already lucky!
After listening to the doctor's last sentence, the policeman asked, "Then can we discharge him from the hospital now?" ”
The doctor shook his head: "I still recommend staying in the hospital for observation." However, his mental state has returned to normal, and you can ask him now. ”
And then it's all sorts of routines. I was hand-cuffed to the hospital bed and couldn't go anywhere, so I had to cooperate.
The police took notes for me right next to my bedside. But I can't remember much of it myself, and even if I still remember things, I can't tell them honestly, such as cultivating Yin Gong.
As a result, the police seriously suspected that I was hallucinating by drugs, so they committed suicide by arson. I couldn't help but smile wryly, I don't take drugs, and I haven't thought about suicide!
But the police still gave me a urine test, and the result was naturally negative.
As for the damage caused by the fire, it is actually not very large. The fire I lit, due to the timely dispatch of the fire brigade, only burned a curtain, two quilts and a few clothes, and it was all my own belongings.
Therefore, the police finally came to the conclusion that I was an occasional mental disorder caused by a sudden illness, and it was not an intentional arson.
Originally, the police could not punish me, but because the landlady was frightened by this, she insisted that the police deal with me seriously. Eventually, under pressure, they detained me for 15 days on charges of vandalizing property after I was discharged from the hospital.
I spent half a month in the detention center. Come to think of it, this is the third time I've been arrested by the police, and it's the second time I've even entered the shift room. However, this time I am to blame, not wronged.
On the day my detention expired, Han Jie made a special trip to the detention center to pick me up, which made me feel very gratified. After going through so many things, encountering so many misunderstandings and accusations, she is still the only one who is willing to understand me and support me!
I was very moved to hug Han Jie and said in her ear very sincerely: "I'm sorry! I'm worrying you again! I promise that I will definitely change all these problems in the future! ”
But Han Jie gently pushed me away and said lightly, "Let's break up!" ”
"Why?" I was taken aback and asked her, "Is it because of the mistake I made this time?" ”
"It's just one of them." Han Jie said quietly, "I like you because you were a sunny boy before, who was both mysterious and masculine, and self-motivated. But you've changed now, you've become very gloomy, very practical, and you've been thinking about it all day! ”
"I, I said I can change it!"
"You may be able to, but the problem is that I'm changing!" Han Jie shook her head, her expression was so indifferent that it made me feel extremely strange, "I am no longer the simple nerd and little girl who has never seen the world when I was in Nanting No. 2 Middle School!" The hobbies, knowledge horizons, and dream plans of the two of us, all the gaps are getting farther and farther, and even the opposite is far away, and it is no longer on the same road! ”
"I ......"
"In the future, I plan to go abroad for graduate school, see the outside world, and start my own career! But you are only staring at the present, only caring about making money, and always thinking about getting married early and tying me firmly to you! I am a bird dreaming of flying far away. And you're like a cage trying to imprison me in it for your own enjoyment! ”
“......”
"Alas!" Han Jie finally sighed: "Even if we reluctantly get together, there will be no good results in the future!" It's better to let go early and be okay! ”
I was speechless. Han Jie's words made me suddenly realize how selfish and rude I was. It is true that as she said, we were not all the way from the beginning, so we should not come together!
The two of us are a top student and a troubled teenager; One is extroverted, the other is introverted; One has lofty ideals and ambitions, and the other only thinks about making money and making a living!
I was able to have her before, and it was already the greatest happiness of my life. I really shouldn't have asked for more, I shouldn't have to keep her with me. That's not love, that's selfishness!
"I'm leaving." Han Jie saw that I had been looking at her blankly, and there was no response for a long time, so she said goodbye and turned around.
She gave me one last smile, but it was an apologetic smile, a relieved smile. I really can't be as free and easy as her, I can't even pretend to be a wry smile, I can only watch her leave gloomily.
I went back to the rented place alone. The old lady of the landlady had a very dark face and refused to let me in at one point. But anyway, all my belongings are still in there, and I'm going to have to go in and pack my personal belongings before I get out, right?
She finally got out of the way and gave me ten minutes to leave.
I opened my room and saw that it was a mess. Almost everything in the house was soaked in water, and the floor was covered with water stains left by the black, dirty water. The smoke from the flames blackened the ceiling, and it was no wonder that the landlady was so angry.
Actually, there's nothing left to clean up. I picked up a few clothes that were still in good condition, found my ID, bank card and other important things and left.
The old lady of the landlady stood at the door and said to me, "All the deposits you have put in my place will be deducted, and it will be used as the cost of repainting the ceiling!" ”
I nodded silently in agreement.
I couldn't find a suitable place to rent for a while, so I stayed in a small hotel for the time being. The next day, when I showed up at the cake shop and planned to go to work as usual, I was told that my job at the cake shop had also been lost.
I asked my boss to settle my salary, after all, I had been working in the shop for half a month before I was detained. But the boss excused me for not coming to work suddenly, so he had to turn down a few orders of business in the past few days, and he didn't even want to give me this half month's salary.
If it were a normal day, I would probably get angry and even reason with him. But now I'm disheartened, depressed, and out of motivation for everything, and I don't bother to bother with him.
Fortunately, Jin Dasco still took care of me, and did not object to my return to work in Yuanbaolou, and even patted me on the shoulder to show comfort. I'm grateful to him, otherwise I would have really been unemployed.
Except for going to work in the ghost market, I have nothing to do in the small hotel the rest of the time, and I used to be busy, but now I feel really uncomfortable when I am free.
I also hesitated a few times, thinking about whether to call Han Jie again to test her attitude and see if there was any chance of recovery.
However, I still didn't dare to dial that number.
