Chapter 116: Disaster does not go alone
On this side, I could see his face clearly. Indeed, if Xiao Fang doesn't say it's her brother, I will think the same way, not to mention anything else, the appearance between the two eyebrows is too similar.
I didn't know if I should say hello when the guy suddenly struck out and slapped me on the shoulder. I was dizzy and unsteady on my feet, and I fell to the ground.
By the time I struggled to open my eyes again, I was already lying on a wooden bed, and my body still hurt through a layer of padded jacket.
And I said to myself, "Where is this?" It's ruthless.
I looked up and looked around, but there was no one in sight. It's just that the dilapidated level of this place seems familiar. In the house, it can be said that except for a broken wooden bed, it is "the four walls of the house".
Well? This is the ruined temple, ah no, inside the ruined pavilion?
"Layman? Layman! I called twice, but there was no response.
Uh, Xiao Fang...... I struggled to get out of bed and walked outside.
It was snowing again, and the sun was about to set, and the layman was meditating on that bench, and the snowflakes were falling around him, but they didn't touch him at all.
"Layman, what the hell is going on?"
Only then did he open his eyes: "You will freeze to death if you lie down for a long time."
"No, I ask you, do you see where they're going?"
"Now that you have woken up to the word separation, you shouldn't worry too much."
"You ......" I knew that it was nonsense to talk to this guy, so I ignored him and walked straight to the door.
"Donor, go back." The layman suddenly said this behind my back.
I looked back and was about to ask him what he meant, but he was gone.
"Who the hell are you?!" My impatience, even anger, almost rose, and I shouted into the room.
"My name, Buddha Wisdom."
…… This is a person who can't communicate normally at all, so I stepped out of the door and walked quickly to the place where they had snatched Xiao Fang just now, but it was already empty, and not even a few footprints were left, or they were swept away.
This can't be chased at all. But fortunately, Xiao Fang personally said that it was his brother, so there shouldn't be any danger, but I don't know what happened when she suddenly vomited blood, and I don't know if she was sent to the hospital. Also, why did that guy hit me so hard that he almost killed me?
I was really helpless at this time, so I could only go down the mountain first and go back to the inn.
At the inn, I knocked on the door of Xiao Fang's room almost with illusion, and she did not return. I had to go back to the house by myself, and I couldn't sleep after lying in bed for a long time. There are many things in my mind, but I have a deep sense of powerlessness.
When I woke up the next day, it was almost noon, and I knocked on the door of Xiao Fang's room again, but the door opened suddenly. I was pleasantly surprised, but when I saw that it was someone else who opened the door for me, I was instantly disappointed.
"Is there something wrong?" The old woman inside asked me coldly.
"Oh, excuse me, you just moved in?"
"Bang!" The woman slammed the door shut.
I walked to the inn steward and asked, they said that Xiao Fang's room had been checked out yesterday, and someone had already taken all the luggage.
I asked him if he could provide any other clues. They said that people take the card back, which is reasonable and legal, and they can't just tell me about it.
I knew I didn't need to ask, it must have been her family's work. Just yesterday's attitude of her brother made me feel the difficulty of this matter.
At this time, she has not been heard from, but fortunately she is with her family. I don't have anything to do here alone, so I'm going to pack up and go back first. At the end of the semester, she will inevitably have to go to the academy to take the exam.
But it wasn't until Mr. Ouyang came to me that I knew the seriousness of the matter. He said that Xiao Fang has not returned to school, and he has not been able to contact anyone, and there is no response to the home address correspondence left for her many times, and it is now about to take the final exam, and not taking the two compulsory courses will affect the normal graduation.
I asked Teacher Ouyang to meet and told him what happened in her hometown. He was so anxious that he walked around the office and smoked non-stop.
Finally, he raised his head and said to me: "This will not work, there will be no unknown people, otherwise, you and I will go to the local area with me, and I will go to her in the name of the school."
Of course I can't ask for it. But what made us completely dumbfounded was that when we went to the local department to check, there was no such person at all.
Don't have this person? How is that possible? Where's the ID card for school?
Soon this incident alarmed the local department head, because her "identity" was too much like the real thing, but the only difference from the real thing was that it was not real in the first place, and it was not issued by this department at all.
At this time, not only me and Teacher Ouyang, but everyone present was stupid, but I knew that they thought differently from us - this method of falsifying identities was very likely to involve a big case.
Therefore, Teacher Ouyang and I were left behind, asked many questions separately, and made a lot of records, but fortunately, we really didn't know about this matter, and we were tossed for a while before letting us go.
After coming out, we didn't know what was wrong, we looked at each other, we were all alone, we disappeared first, and then we had a false identity, where to find her? But Teacher Ouyang and I are sure that Xiao Fang's doing this must not be her own problem, maybe it is her "family members". So we can only wait and see what happens, and continue to wait for her.
Helplessly, the two of us could only go back to the city together, and Mr. Ouyang first greeted the teachers of the two courses, and looked at his face and gave two passing assessments. If Xiao Fang comes back next semester to make up for the paper exam, it will be fine. And I had to wait for her almost every day on several of her paths, but in vain.
Seeing that the time is delaying until the Chinese New Year, Xiao Fang still has no news from her. I was going crazy with this, but I couldn't do anything, so I had to go home on vacation.
I didn't tell my mother about going home, I thought I would surprise her when I came home. It's just that I didn't expect to go back and see her, and I was surprised - my mother was thinner than when she took care of me in the hospital, and the shape of her arms and bones that had some flesh was about to be exposed. If that month was to take care of me, then there is no reason at all for these months. There's probably only one bad explanation for that – she's sick.
I asked my mother, "Mom, are you sick, have you gone to the hospital?"
She smiled and said lightly: "It's not in the way, I'm just a little unwell, and I'll be fine after a while."
"Don't lie to me, can you lose so much weight if you're uncomfortable? Let's go, follow me to the doctor's office. With that, I pulled her out of the house. I almost lost Xiao Fang, and I must not allow her to be lost again.
"No need, sit down and listen to me." My mother gently took off my hand and slowly walked to the stool and sat down.
I calmed myself down a little and sat on the stool next to my mother and watched her. She reached out and took out a stack of things from a dresser and handed it to me: "Don't worry, if you don't mature, I can't rest assured."
I took the stack and found that it was all kinds of medical records and examination reports. I can't understand much, only two words occupy my whole brain - terminal illness. I never thought that this disease would fall on her head.
However, when I saw the date of the medical record, I jumped up from the stool, and she herself had known about it for a long time, but she never told me: "Why don't you tell me, why don't you go to the doctor!"
She smiled and pulled me to sit on the stool: "Look at you, I told you not to worry. You heard my mother say that this disease can't be cured, and if you go to see it, you will live a few more days, waste money, and suffer a crime, forget it. ”
"No, even if it's ......"
"Don't worry, listen to me. I'm anxious for you to find a partner to start a family, just because I think of the only concern in my heart, and I am relieved that someone will take care of you. Do you remember when I gave you a match a year ago, you didn't agree at that time, and it really made me die. Fortunately, you also caught up with the girl you like, so marry back as soon as possible. When the time comes, you sell the house and buy a new house for yourself. Alas, you will have to rely on yourself for many things in the future. ”
Now, it is even more impossible for me to tell her about Xiao Fang's disappearance, so I thought about it and asked her: "Money is not a problem, money can be earned, how much does this disease cost to see?" Did you know? ”
"Silly boy, the terminal illness is already difficult to treat, not to mention that I have been delaying it for a long time, and it is estimated that it is already in the advanced stage. Don't be afraid, everyone has this day, it's just sooner or later. I've done a lot of things in my life, raised you, and seeing that you're about to get married, I don't have to worry about it. ”
"You, alas, you, why bother!" I was so anxious that I beat my chest, and she dragged her illness until now for me.
She sorted out the medical records again and put them back in the cabinet just now. She said to me: "It's okay, I've seen birth, old age, sickness and death, I've been with you for many years, and it's time to go and accompany your father." Go get some rest early. ”
"Did the doctor say how long it will be?"
"Count it down, it's still half a year, it doesn't matter. If you get married soon, I might still be able to see it. But don't worry, I'm satisfied. With that, he went back to his room.
I went back to my room and couldn't help but cry as I lay on the bed. I was hurt, she cried like that when she saw me, and now she herself is running out of time to die, but she laughs at everything every day. Since I was a child, she was the only one to take care of me, and I couldn't just watch her give up.
No, no matter how small my hope is, I have to take her to the doctor.
