Chapter Seventy-Three: The Nails of the Man in the Skewers

On this day, the weather was getting late, Lin Chen came out of the ward, went to the hot water room with the kettle to fill it with water, and walked back silently alone.

In the corridor of the hospital, there are still a lot of people, a window in the corridor was blown open by the wind at some point, and the wind blew in from the open half of the space, the fat man walked over wrapped in clothes, closed the window, turned around, and happened to meet Lin Chen who was walking towards him.

"Did Ye Jiangchuan and his father go back?" Lin Chen asked.

The fat man nodded slightly, "In the past two days, he has also been exhausted!" I let him go back to rest! After all, he's so old! ”

"Yes! Alas! Lin Chen sighed.

The fat man looked around and asked Lin Chen, "Hey! Why did Xu Aqi disappear? I remember she came with you! It's been a long time, and I haven't seen her! ”

These words reminded Lin Chen, Lin Chen took out his mobile phone and dialed Xu Aqi, but the phone was always busy.

Lin Chen walked back and forth in the crowded corridor, but he didn't find any trace of Xu Aqi.

"Forget it! Don't look for it! She is a big living person, and she is not a child, so she can't be lost! I reckon she might have something to do and walked away temporarily! Lin Chen said.

At the top of the stairs, there was a black cat squatting, not afraid of people, probably hungry, barking softly a few times, walking over to this side with light steps, surrounding Lin Chen's feet, without any strangeness, "meowing" non-stop.

Lin Chen held the kettle, squatted down, and brushed the hair on the cat's oily black back.

The bench was full of people, and the fat man moved his butt to the side, making a small space, and he beckoned to Lin Chen and motioned for him to sit.

Lin Chen waved his hand.

"Don't touch it! Maybe it's a feral cat! Look at how dirty it is! Maybe there are lice and fleas! The fat man kindly reminded, "In case it carries infectious diseases again, you are not afraid of being infected!" ”

"It's okay!" Lin Chen shook his head, "I still like cats!" There's spirituality in this thing! You see it looks into your eyes, as if it understands everything! How cute! ”

The fat man snorted coldly: "Cute? It's a little beast after all! If you look at their eyes at night, you won't be cute! When the eyes are in the dark of night, they can glow with a metallic luster! It's terrifying to look at! ”

"Anyway, cats are psychic! It is said that when you are with your cat, if its eyes are looking somewhere else, it may be that it sees something dirty that we can't see! Be careful! It's hair-wrenching to think about! Especially black cats, black cats are even more offended! Abroad, there is a saying that the black cat is the spirit of the witch! ”

As he spoke, Lin Chen handed the kettle to the fat man, took the black cat into his arms, stood up, and walked back and forth by the window. The cat and Lin Chen seemed to be familiar with each other, and they were in Lin Chen's arms, and they didn't break free, and their long and short calls rang out one after another.

"Stop screaming! Called, I don't have anything to eat! Unless she meets Xu Aqi, she always has fish fillets, beef jerky or something delicious in her bag! If you want to call, call her! Lin Chen said.

The cat seemed to be human, and actually stopped and stopped barking.

"This cat really seems to understand you, so it doesn't bark!" The fat man said.

"I remember such a true story, that there was a man walking on the road in the evening, met a black cat, the cat jumped at it and barked, all the hair on his body suddenly rose, the man beat the cat to death with a stone, but he went back to get sick, went to a lot of hospitals and couldn't see well, the illness became more and more serious, and finally invited a village goddess to show it, and the goddess said to him, did you see a black cat? And the man said, Yes! Then the goddess asked, "Did you beat it to death?" And he said, Yes! Then the goddess said to him, "You ought not have killed that cat!" The cat saw that the dirt was attached to him, and wanted to help him scare the dirt away! ”

"Huh? It seems that this black cat still has yin and yang eyes! It can also ward off evil spirits! It seems that it should be treated well! Don't be offended! ”

The fat man said, reaching out to stroke the black cat in Lin Chen's arms, the cat didn't seem to give the fat man face, bared his teeth and roared at him twice, broke free from Lin Chen's embrace, got out of the small door of the hospital, and ran away without a trace.

"Fatty, you really don't want to be treated by black cats!"

Lin Chen smiled and dusted off the cat hair on his body.

"Heh, if you don't invite the black cat to be seen, you won't be treated by it! Anyway, I haven't recruited anyone to meet, including my daughter-in-law! How can I live such a miserable life! The fat man smiled bitterly and continued to ask curiously, "What about later?" Later, what happened to the man? ”

"Later, well, it seems that the goddess helped him drive away the dirt on his body, and his illness was naturally cured!"

Lin Chen looked at the table below, and it was not early.

"Fatty, where will Xu Aqi go? I haven't had a shadow for so long! I don't answer the phone either! Lin Chen looked a little anxious.

"If you're in a hurry, you can go out and find it! By the way, this is your first time at this hospital, right? ”

"Well, what's wrong?"

"Outside the hospital, along the main road, there are restaurants and shops, and I guess she may have gone shopping alone, and if she did, she would have to go shopping on this main road. Go out to the left, don't go to the small road that turns past the T-shaped mouth! There was a small dirt road, and there was nothing, leading to the hospital morgue! ”

"Oh! I know! ”

Xu Aqi left the impression on the fat man that she was a girl with a warm personality and a little temper, but she was generally more sensible, if there was no reason, she would definitely say hello to everyone before leaving.

"Hmmm! I know! Lin Chen said and said to the fat man, "You should also hurry back to the ward!" Listening to Ye Jiangchuan's father, I wanted to ask a nurse to help, so I went out first, went to find Xu Aqi, and helped him inquire about the price of the nurse by the way! ”

Saying goodbye to the fat man, when Lin Chen walked out of the hospital gate, he hung up the phone to Xu Aqi again.

Luckily, the phone actually worked.

"Hey .."

Lin Chen had just made a phone call, and before he could speak, he saw Xu Aqi holding two mutton skewers in his hands, and while making a phone call, he lowered his head and walked over to this side.

Seeing Xu Aqi, a trace of joy flashed in Lin Chen's eyes, and he took his mobile phone to greet him.

When Yunfu Temple came back, worrying about Xu Aqi and getting angry seemed to have become a piece of Lin Chen's heart, so where was her every minute and every second, he wanted to know! Otherwise, he will be restless.

"Hey!"

Xu Aqi looked up, saw that it was Lin Chen, and handed over a meat skewer, "Well, take it!" ”

"Where have you been? Why don't you say hello to everyone wherever you go! Let's make this easy find! ”

Lin Chen's face was a little ugly.

"Who didn't say hello!"

Xu Aqi looked back dejectedly, stunned for no reason.

Lin Chen took the meat skewer and was about to speak, when he felt that the two of them were standing in the middle of the road blocking the way of others, so he pulled Xu Aqi to the side.

Xu Aqi paused, broke away from Lin Chen's tightly held hand, moved his wrist, and said, "Lin Chen, I can't run again, why are you doing so hard!" It hurts to scratch my wrist! Did you forget? You were in the corridor of the hospital, beckoning to me and telling me to come with you! I didn't know what you called me out, so I walked out of the hospital with you, and we went shopping together, but then you were gone! It's okay for you to leave without saying hello! Why do you blame me for not saying hello? ”

Lin Chen was stunned, "Strange, when did I wave to you and tell you to go with me?" ”

Hearing Lin Chen say this, Xu Aqi opened her mouth in astonishment.

What's going on?

Lin Chen's misdenied it made the conversation between the two of them a chicken-to-duck exchange, as if it couldn't go on!

"Lin Chen, do you know what you're talking about? What you have done and what you have said, you will not admit it! What kind of international joke are you playing with me! ”

"I, I've been in the hospital all along! With the fat guys! Ye Jiangchuan has been in a coma, how can I walk away! I don't have any reason to call you out, huh? Think about it! That's right! The fat man can testify to me! I really didn't call you out! ”

Lin Chen spread out his hands, looking embarrassed as the second monk was puzzled.

"You, didn't you call me out! How did you forget! Let's walk along this road together, have you forgotten? ”

Xu Aqi turned and pointed in the direction she came.

Lin Chen looked in the direction of her finger, and couldn't help but be shocked, the fat man said that there was a small path to turn left when the hospital went out, and told him not to take this path!

Lin Chen tried to sniff the breath around him.

"You mean, I'll take you to the path that turns off this T-road?"

"Hmmm! You called me out, and we kept walking down this road, and there was a stall selling crispy corn in front of us, and you bought one for me to eat! ”

Lin Chen was confused.

His gaze swept over, it was a small dirt road that was not too wide, the road was uneven, potholes, and some waterlogged, and on both sides were not high walls made of bricks, in disrepair, in tatters, and there was no one in sight on the whole path, let alone hawkers.

"What are you talking about? When did I buy you crispy corn! Lin Chen said.

Xu Aqi looked at Lin Chen in surprise and disbelief, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"That's not right! Do you have amnesia? You've forgotten all about it! Think about it! I'll help you remember! You, Lin Chen took the crispy corn that had just come out of the pot, and helped me smear the ketchup and wrap it in paper, don't you remember? ”

Lin Chen tugged at the tips of her hair, "My eldest lady, can you go write a novel?" ”

Xu Aqi gently stroked her hair, opened her eyes wide, wrinkled her brows, and looked at him blankly, "It's really strange!" Something is wrong with your brain! It's still in the water! Ye Jiangchuan is guilty of epilepsy, are you going to have amnesia! ”

Confused, Xu Aqi's emotions were a little excited, and her voice raised an octave.

Lin Chen was also skeptical of all this that was happening in front of him.

Could it be that Xu Aqi also suffers from hysteria?

Or is there something wrong?

In order to calm Xu Aqi down, Lin Chen raised his chin and glanced at the mutton skewers in his and Xu Aqi's hands, "Don't get excited, if you have something to say, eat this first, it won't be fragrant when it gets cold for a while, let's talk while eating!" ”

Lin Chen had been busy in the hospital for a long time, and he was also hungry at this time, so he bit off a whole piece of meat and chewed it with relish.

Xu Aqi wanted to say something more, but saw Lin Chen frown.

Lin Chen's chewing mouth stopped, looked at the mutton skewer in his hand ignorantly, spit out the meat in his palm, looked at it carefully, and carefully inspected it like a monkey choosing lice.

"It's disgusting! Are you a camel or a cow or a sheep? How to eat and regurgitate! I'm going to spit it out and play with it slowly! ”

Xu Aqi frowned, with a look of disdain.

"I'm strange, something in this flesh just scratched my teeth! I guess the bones weren't shaved clean! ”

"Crispy bones!"

Suddenly, Lin Chen's expression froze, "Ah Qi, what do you think this is?" ”

In the small piece of flesh that Lin Chen spit out, a small crescent-shaped white substance was revealed.

Lin Chen flicked it with his fingers, and saw a white, flat, and translucent thyroid substance exposed.

The two of them screamed in unison, and the piece of meat in Lin Chen's hand rolled to the ground along with the flat thing.

"Human nails!"

These four words squeezed out from between Xu Aqi's teeth, and she herself was already pale with shock.

Looking at the object, Lin Chen only felt that something in his stomach was surging upward, and he felt that he was about to vomit, he quickly covered his mouth, and before he had time to think about it, he vomited on the ground with a "wow", and the yellow-white vomit splashed on his and Xu Aqi's feet and sprayed all over the ground.

Xu Aqi was so shocked that she took two steps back, looked at the mutton skewer she hadn't eaten yet, and threw it far away.

Lin Chen half-squatted on the ground, retching and coughing, and when he couldn't vomit, his face was suffocated red.

After tossing like this for a while, Lin Chen felt more comfortable.
