Modern Chapter 042 - Acacia Candy (42)
Jia Hui followed Principal Wang to a row of dilapidated bungalows. These bungalows are like small beasts nesting in the night, some with their eyes open, others closed.
In those open eyes, there are all kinds of sounds, the clashing of pots and spoons, the snoring of men, the complaining of women, the cursing of old people, and the crying of children.
Jia Hui covered her ears, closed her eyes, opened them again, turned her face to Principal Wang and asked, "Is your clinic here?" β
"It's cheap to rent here." Principal Wang said, walked to a door, took out the key, and opened the door that did not need to be locked at all. The room, which is also rudimentary, contains a table, a simple plastic skeleton, and advertisements for various medicines pasted on the walls. Behind the table, there are two wooden shelves, on which some medicines are randomly placed. Drugs are almost unlabeled, and some have a layer of dust.
"Didn't anyone come to your clinic?"
"Someone is coming." Principal Wang stood at the door and pointed outside: "But most of the people who come to me are people who live in these houses. These people, if they can't stand it, don't want to come to my place to see a doctor and buy medicine. They all say that seeing a doctor is expensive, they all say that medicine is expensive, no matter how expensive this medical treatment is, no matter how expensive the medicine is, it can be more expensive than your own illness. β
"For the poor, life is indeed worthless."
"You're right, the poor can't afford to live, what's the matter. If you lose it, maybe it's easier. Principal Wang turned the keychain: "You can use the things here as you like, and they are not valuable." The medicines on the shelves, except for the daily anti-inflammatory drugs, are almost expired. You can also see that this place is chaotic, things are left here, and I am afraid of losing them. Medicines and stuff, you can tell me if you need anything, and I'll get it to you from somewhere else. β
"No, I don't." Jia Hui walked around the house: "You just have to give me that." β
"Don't worry, what I promised you, I will definitely do." At the same time as Principal Wang threw the key to Jia Hui, the person also arrived in the house and closed the door casually: "I have a bedroom and a small warehouse behind me, and the warehouse is also the place where surgery is usually done, do you want to go and have a look." β
Principal Wang almost stuck to Jia Hui's body: "The things I promised you have been done, should the things you promised me also be fulfilled." β
"What's the hurry, isn't this thing still undone?" Jia Hui took a step forward, raised her eyes, and looked at him with a slight amorous look at him from the corner of her eyes: "In addition to being here at school, is the principal still worried that I will run?" β
"Don't worry, of course don't worry, what you love and I want, where can I use a running word." Principal Wang bypassed Jia Hui and walked to the back: "You also know, I am now the principal, and my identity and status are also counted, this small clinic, it doesn't matter if it can't be opened, and I can't make a lot of money." β
Jia Hui's eyes rolled, and she followed Principal Wang into the bedroom: "What the principal said is that this main dish must be cooked quietly to be delicious." Do you say? β
As he spoke, he stood on tiptoe and quickly kissed Principal Wang on the face when he turned around: "This is interest, principal, you take it first." β
"You're right, the more delicious it is, the more you have to keep it and eat it slowly." Principal Wang stroked Jia Hui's face: "Tomorrow night, you can get what you want." β
Principal Wang's clinic only receives two kinds of patients, poor people living in bungalows and poor students in schools. Whether it is a poor person living in a bungalow or a poor student in a school, they will face the problem of having children but not being able to save them, those big hospitals, regardless of whether they are public or private, the operation fee is five or six thousand yuan, but in Principal Wang's small clinic, less than 1,000 yuan can be solved.
Principal Wang promised to find a fresh baby for Jia Hui, and the baby was brought to a pregnant woman in her thirties who was about to give birth and worked part-time on a construction site. Like Jia Hui, she is from the countryside and came out to earn a living with her husband, who works on the construction site. In their hometown, the pregnant woman has given birth to two daughters, and now she is pregnant with the third child in her belly. The husband said that if it is a son, he will give birth, and if it is a daughter, he will not want it. Worried about the wrong fetus, she saw the B-ultrasound several times in Principal Wang's clinic during the months of her pregnancy. Principal Wang is a doctor, but he is not a professional obstetrics and gynecology doctor, let alone a B-ultrasound doctor, when he is not allowed, he does not dare to open his mouth to draw conclusions casually, until the child is a month old, he relented and said that he is a girl.
It's been seven months, and the child has been born, and if he is raised carefully, he can live. But the pregnant woman's husband disagreed, and the pregnant woman herself didn't want to have another daughter, so she could only say no to it ruthlessly. Pregnant women don't want it, Jia Hui wants it, this is a somewhat cost-effective deal.
In the process, Principal Wang was reluctant to elaborate, Xing Ruyi and the fox were not willing to listen carefully, in short, Jia Hui got what she wanted, but Principal Wang did not get what Jia Hui promised him.
"Because Jia Hui repented, you think you were fooled by her?"
"Yes, I am the head of a school, and I am a few years older than her, and I was actually teased by her, to be honest, I am unwilling." Thinking back to the things that happened at the beginning, Principal Wang regretted that he was not at the beginning, and felt that his IQ was trampled on the ground by Jia Hui: "But I'm not stupid, even if I'm unwilling, I never thought of killing her, at least I didn't think about killing her because of these things." I killed her because she had become so horrible. β
"How terrible has she become?"
"That night, she asked me to give her the baby and kicked me out of the clinic. As for me, I don't have much interest in the things she is tinkering with. To be honest, at that time, I didn't believe in these things at all, and I thought that she was a little girl, just watching some ghost movies, horror movies, and superstitions. That night, which also happened to be my daughter's birthday, I drove home. After that, I didn't see Jia Hui for two or three days, and asked the head of their department, saying that they had asked for leave. On the fourth day, or the fifth day, I went to the clinic to look for her, and she showed me a jar and said she had succeeded. β
"Ghost Baby?"
"A stillborn baby is the fetus that dies after the pregnant woman induces labor. She opened the jar, and it contained the fetus, and I was shocked that she was a good-looking neurotic. She told me that with just a drop of blood every morning and evening, the dead fetus would be able to do my errands and make me rich. I wanted to scold her for being insane, especially when she looked at me with that weird look and I felt like my whole back was chilling. She asked me if I didn't believe her, and before I could answer, she grabbed my hand, bit me on the tip of my finger, and shoved my hand into the jar. β
"And then, what happened?"
"I scolded her for being insane, pushed her, took my hand out, looked for the clinic's disinfectant to disinfect it, and found a band-aid to put it on."
"And then?"
"I'm going back to school, she's holding such a thing, and the whole person is nervous, I just want to do something It's not appropriate, isn't it? Hell knows if she'll bite me. Immediately afterwards, the school held academic exchange activities, and I was busy for more than half a month, and Jia Hui didn't have the time and time to deal with her.
On the night when I was busy with the school's academic exchange activities, a very strange thing happened. That night, I drank a little wine, but I was definitely not drunk. When I got home, I found that my wife and daughter had gone to her grandmother's house, so I went to bed. As soon as I tried to fall asleep, I felt that half of my arm was cold, as if something was pulling me and pulling me, and I opened my eyes in a daze, and saw that there seemed to be a baby lying on the bedside table. When I looked closer, the lamp was still a lamp, nothing else.
I thought I was dazzled, so I rolled over and tried to fall asleep, but as soon as I closed my eyes, that strange feeling reappeared. What's even stranger is that this time, no matter how hard I tried to open my eyes, I couldn't. That feeling...... It feels a lot like the legendary ghost press. Later, I shouted desperately in my heart, scolded desperately, and finally broke free from that strange feeling, and immediately turned over and got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash my face after opening my eyes. I don't know why I'm washing my face, maybe subconsciously I feel like I'm drunk and want to be sober. β
Principal Wang said, wiping a handful on his face.
"It was the fastest time I went to the bathroom, and I was talking about running faster than I could when my stomach was upset. I turned on the faucet and ran the water into my face several times, waiting until I felt awake enough before opening my eyes. As a result, do you know what I saw? I saw a jar, one that looked like a country jar for pickles, and it sat on my sink, out of touch with the dΓ©cor of my house.
I looked at the jar, and the jar was also looking at me, looking at it, I felt that it was very familiar, and then I remembered that this jar was the one that Jia Hui used to pretend to be stillborn when she was in the clinic. I felt cold in my limbs, and all my senses of the outside world became dull, and I don't even remember how to open the jar, but I remember that when I looked into the jar, the baby in the jar opened his eyes and looked at me. β
"The baby is alive?"
"I don't know if he's alive, I just know that I can't get out of that jar after that. I've tried to smash it, I've tried to drive it far into the mountains, I've tried to send it to the temple to overtake it, but no matter what I do, the jar will always come back to my bathroom intact, and the baby in the jar will always haunt me.
I have no choice but to go to Jia Hui, but do you know what she said? She said that little ghost was the best gift she had ever given me, the best gift she had ever given me in return.
She's crazy, she's a complete lunatic, a good-looking shrine maiden. I'm crazy too, and if I wasn't crazy, I wouldn't make a deal with the baby in the jar. β
"What deal?"
"I want it to help me get rid of Jia Hui, only when she dies can my world return to normal."
