After settling the bill, I caught up with the nurse who had just left.

"Eldest sister, is the child you just mentioned from Hewang Village?"

"Who's the big sister?" The nurse gave me a blank look.

"Miss......"

"Phew! You're a young lady."

I apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, beauty! Too anxious. ”

The nurse looked at me, "Forget it!" Did you hear that...... I also heard from other colleagues, and I knew that it was a child on the third floor of the inpatient department, and something else ......."

The nurse spread her hands out at me and pushed the cart away.

The boy and his brothers first noticed something strange at the bottom of the river, and I thought of the boy's neighbor relaying the words of the boy's mother by the river—that my son had been killed—and I always thought that the boy might know something. Director Liu shouldn't be able to ask anything in his mouth, if the little boy is still alive, it may be a breakthrough.

Thinking so, I hurried to the third floor of the inpatient department.

Early in the morning, there were not many people on the third floor of the inpatient department, and there was only one young nurse on duty at the nurses' station.

"Hello, I would like to ask the police a few days ago. What ward was the boy staying? That's right! It is from Hewang Village, Yihe Town. ”

The nurse looked me up and down with strange eyes: "What are you asking him for?" "The tone is not very friendly.

"Oh! I...... I'll see if there's anything pulled down. "Looking at the nurse's attitude, I guessed that something should have happened to the boy, so I had an idea and said nonsense.

"You ......"

"I am his distant cousin, my cousin's life is miserable, and the whole family has had accidents."

The nurse apologized to me in embarrassment: "Huh? This...... I'm so embarrassed! The child is now living in Ward 312, and after knowing that his parents had an accident in the past two days, he cried to death. ”

I shuddered: "Man is dead? ”

The nurse smiled embarrassedly: "I came to work in the morning, I really don't know this very well, I heard my colleague on the night shift last night, it seems to be ...... It seems to ......"

The door to ward 312 was open, and there were three beds inside, the one next to the door. There was an old man sitting on it, holding food in his hand, looking at the food that was quite fragrant, and a middle-aged woman sitting on the side, looking at the girl who looked like an old man.

The two beds were empty, but a child's blouse hung from the head of the middle bed.

"Uncle, was there a boy living in this ward before?"

The old man put down the bowl and touched his mouth with the back of his hand: "Hey! Hung last night. What a good boy! It's just that life is too bitter......"

Looking around, 312 is an ordinary ward, there is a fan on the ceiling, but it is quite high from the ground, and it can't be tied to a rope if you want to hang it, and the shelf for hanging bottles is too low, how did people hang themselves? Besides, the old man is still in the ward, such a big living person hanged himself, the movement must be not small, why can't he hear it?

"Uncle, why did the kid hang himself?"

Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head: "Last night, my family Nizi picked me up and went back for one night, and it was only half an hour after I came back - I heard that I was hanged in the toilet, and I found that the person was already dead." ”

After hearing this, my heart was completely cold, and it seemed that I was destined to find my father again hopelessly.

As soon as he turned around and was about to leave, he saw a man with red eyes. The swollen boy stood behind me, trying to enter the house, but I blocked the way.

Seeing the child's appearance clearly, I was so frightened that I let out an "ah", took several steps back, and slammed the back of my head against the door of the ward.

"You...... Aren't you already ......" Because of nervousness, I can't speak anymore.

The little boy looked at me with a look of surprise on his face, his eyes blinking, and he looked completely unaware.

The old man behind him laughed and coughed with laughter: "Young man, look at your timidity, don't get me wrong!" It wasn't this kid who hung last night. ”

My palms were sweaty, and I stood up straight against the door.

"What? Not this? Bite...... Why are there two children? ”

The boy ran back to the middle bed. The old man smiled and explained the reason.

The boy who lived in ward 312 did hang himself in the toilet last night, the child was fifteen or sixteen years old, suffering from a very strange and difficult to cure disease, and his parents had long since divorced, and when he was first hospitalized, he still came to see him from time to time, maybe to see that his condition did not improve, and gradually the two of them did not come.

As for the boy from Hewang Village, he used to live in Ward 311 and only moved here this morning, and the head nurse said that the circuit in Room 311 was faulty, and the electrician came to repair it today.

After listening, I nodded, it turned out to be a false alarm, it was the eight nurses who made a mistake, fortunately they were wrong, at this time my mood was compared with just now, it was like ice and fire.

I calmed my excitement, forced a smile on my face, and walked over to the little boy's bed.

"Little brother. Brother, do you still know me? ”

Boy rubbing. Kneaded. Red. swollen eyes and shook his head.

"Something happened to you two brothers that day, and I ...... I was one of the salvage crews. ”

As I said this, I noticed a slight change in the expression on the little boy's face.

Only then did he realize that he was in a hurry just now, but he didn't buy anything when he was looking for the little boy, so he took out 200 yuan and put it on the side of the little boy's pillow.

"Brother is in a hurry, you can buy something you like to eat!"

The boy stared at the two hundred-dollar bills for a few seconds before looking up at me again, his expression visibly relaxed.

Look at the door! I was happy again.

"Little brother. Brother, what's your name? What were you doing out just now? I asked softly.

"Wang Yujue. Dine. ”

The boy's voice was low, and his answer was crisp. I saw more and more hope in me, and now that he had spoken, I had the confidence to pry his mouth open.

"Who's with you in the hospital these days?"

"My aunt."

"Oh, where's she?"

"I'm going home and getting something."

I was afraid that Wang Yujue would become "dumb" again, so I asked him in a step-by-step way.

The two of them asked and answered, Wang Yujue's words became more and more, and I felt that the time was almost up, so I cut to the chase.

"Why did you go to the puddle to bathe that day?"

"My brother and I didn't go to the shower, but ...... It's about fishing. ”

Hearing this, my scalp was numb, what? They turned out to be fishing for something, and in this case, things became complicated.

"What are you fishing?" I hurriedly asked.

"Chest, black box."

In fact, when this sentence was asked, I had already guessed that he might answer like this, but when I heard Wang Yujue say the words "black box" in his mouth, he was still full of excitement.

"You...... How do you brothers know that there is a black box under the river? Did someone ask you to do that? ”

Wang Yujue picked up the two hundred-yuan bills I put next to my pillow, clenched them tightly in his hands, and pursed his mouth vigorously, as if he was making a decision in his heart.

"A grandfather, he told us that there was a black box in that place, and the grandfather said that my brother and I could catch a box, so he gave us 2,000 yuan, and I ...... My family needs money very much, and with money, my parents won't always quarrel......"

I see! These words make me seven points puzzled and three points sad, it seems that these brothers are very sensible! Everything is not as simple as we imagined, who is the grandfather in his mouth?

I was just about to continue asking, when I suddenly heard a voice behind me. Tender scolding.

"Who are you?"

"Auntie! You're here so early! Wang Yujue instantly turned into a smiling face and waved his hand towards the door.

When I looked back, I saw a beautiful woman of twenty-three or four, wearing a white shirt and blue jeans, staring at me.
