After choosing to return to reality.

The world in front of me blurred and was replaced by the sound of horns honking in the streets.

"Here, it's forty-eight dollars in total."

The driver impatiently tapped the price on the ride meter and pointed to the QR code on the back seat.

“>

Zhao Ke looked up at the window, the red cross light of the hospital, which was unusually dazzling at night, took out a hundred and handed it over, and Zhao Ke hurriedly prepared to get out of the car.

"Alas...... You stuff! ”

At this time, the driver hurriedly called Zhao Ke, but instead of looking for money, he pointed to the urn on the back seat of Zhao Ke.

It turned out that after Zhao Ke returned, when he saw the big red cross light, his heart was also in a mess, and he didn't know what happened to the old man, which made Zhao Ke very anxious.

Almost forgot about the urn.

"Thanks!"

took the urn away, and listened to the driver scold in a low voice with an unhappy face: "Hit the street!" ”

In the past, the driver was afraid that he didn't have such good luck, but today Zhao Ke didn't care about him.

Walked to the hospital, made a phone call with the little junior brother Luo Qing, and confirmed the floor.

After learning that the old man had been transferred to the ICU (intensive care unit), Zhao Ke's face suddenly became ugly.

didn't wait for the elevator, but went straight to the fire escape, the eleventh floor, for Zhao Ke's current physical fitness, it is no different from a 100-meter sprint.

Moreover, only the entrance and exit of the fire escape are monitored, and there is often no monitoring in the corridor.

After Zhao Ke rushed in, he could climb the first floor in two or three arrow steps, and the speed was amazing.

Pushing open the door of the fire escape, Zhao Ke quickly did not walk outside the ICU door.

"Second Senior Brother!"

In addition to Luo Qing, his senior brother was also guarding the door.

Maybe it's because of his age, it didn't take long for the senior brother's face to show a few more wrinkles, although he sat on the chair, he always remained calm.

The irregular tapping of his fingers on his thighs betrayed the anxiety in his heart.

Seeing Zhao Ke, the senior brother stood up and walked over to Zhao Ke.

"What's going on? When I left, the old man looked good and was in good shape, how could he suddenly collapse? ”

When he left before, Zhao Ke specially gave the old man a brief grooming and carefully checked the old man's body.

If you want to describe the state of the old man at that time.

Zhao Ke can only say that it is as strong as a cow.

Because of the nourishment of ginseng extract, it is impossible for ordinary diseases to pose a threat to the old man.

"No...... I don't know......"

Facing Zhao Ke's questioning, Luo Qing's eyes instantly moistened, and he looked panicked, not knowing how to describe the situation at that time.

Fortunately, at this time, the senior brother stepped forward, put his arm around Luo Qing's shoulder, and comforted: "Don't worry, when my doctor friend came out just now, he said that it will be no big problem, you slowly explain things clearly, what is going on." ”

Senior Brother's words were naturally to comfort Luo Qing.

Not everyone can enter the ICU, and generally those who go in basically have one foot in the ghost gate.

Just one day's expenses may be unaffordable for the average family.

Of course, although the money is well spent, it is not denied that the ICU is a mirror of the medical level of a hospital, and it concentrates the highest medical capacity of the hospital.

The cost of a single bed is often close to a million (some hospitals)

The old man was pushed into the ICU, indicating that the injury was naturally very serious, but Luo Qing was not very clear about these details, and after hearing his senior brother's words, he also had a bottom in his heart.

took a breath of relief and slowly explained the matter from beginning to end.

It turned out that after Zhao Ke left in the evening, he was watching the World Cup, and after seeing Iran lose, he gasped and scolded, which was his only remaining pocket money.

After scolding, I felt hungry again, so I thought of the pot of stew that Zhao Ke left in the kitchen.

At that time, I cut a bunch of meat, cooked a few slices of fried tofu, and served a small bowl of braised soup, and sat in the living room to eat it.

But I don't want to, I don't know when, the old man is standing behind Luo Qing.

Eyes staring straight at him.

"She's coming!" She's coming! A face flushed with excitement, and suddenly fell to the ground and fainted. ”

Zhao Ke and Senior Brother glanced at each other, and their faces suddenly became confused.

They followed the old man, not for a day or two.

It can be said that he is closer than his father, and he is clear about the old man's temper.

Don't look at the old man dancing in the square outside, he has always provoked other people's aunts, but he has always closed the door and practiced his family skills.

This can be seen by looking at the old man's sheet.

But here's the problem...... Who is she? Can the old man be so excited?

Just when the two of them were meditating, Zhao Ke and Senior Brother suddenly had a flash of inspiration in their minds, and at the same time exclaimed: "Could it be her!" ”

After shouting these words, Zhao Ke and Senior Brother immediately frowned at the same time and looked at each other.

The person that Zhao Ke thought of in his mind was none other than the cook lady in the Red Smoke Restaurant, that is, the woman who gave her the pot of old marinade.

Zhao Ke thought about it, and all he could think of was her.

I don't dare to say that the person the old man knows is this cook, but at least he can't get rid of it.

These Zhao Ke have no real evidence, just a lot of speculation, but the more I think about it, the more I think it is possible.

After all, from the time when the old man gave him a cigarette stick, he knew that the person the old man had been looking for might be a female postman.

But Zhao Ke really didn't think much about it at that time.

To tell the truth, the postman's life is the least fate.

Maybe one moment I smoked and drank with you, and the next second I entered the horror space and turned into a pile of minced meat.

Since the old man has been looking for so long in reality, there is still no news of the other party, and in Zhao Ke's heart, he has planned the other party into the label of death.

But now imagine that if the other party becomes a slave of the Red Smoke Pavilion, it may not be difficult to live.

All Zhao Ke could think of was this woman.

But the question is, what can he think of as his senior brother, is he the same as he thinks, maybe he is also a postman.

It's no wonder that Zhao Ke is so skeptical.

"You know?" There was a strange look in the senior brother's eyes, Zhao Ke and Luo Qing had not entered at that time, and only the senior brother himself knew.

Where did Zhao Ke find out?

Seeing this, Zhao Ke's heart suddenly accelerated, but Zhao Ke quickly admitted it.

"I know, the second aunt Wang of the next house, when the old man peeped at her taking a bath, I saw it clearly, the body of the second aunt Wang was white, with a big butt and a straight chest.

When the senior brother heard this, his face darkened, and he glanced at the nurses and pedestrians who were casting strange eyes around him.

waved his hand: "Go, go, where, no!" ”

In fact, the woman that Senior Brother thought of was more than ten years ago, when Zhao Ke and Luo Qing had not yet started.

One day, after being reprimanded and beaten violently by the old man, he cried in the middle of the night and made fried sand in the snow.

It was a really cold day.

The snow fell in the sand, making the iron pot sink with ice, and his hands were blue from the cold, and his lips were shivering.

Until late at night, he felt his whole head be clouded.

Just as he was about to fall to the ground, a pair of big warm hands held him in his arms.

The black cloak made him feel the warmth he hadn't felt for a long time.

Looking back, it was a woman in a cheongsam.

The woman's eyebrows were full of maternal love, holding her hands with both hands, and gently whispering the essentials of fried sand in her ear.

At the same time, don't forget to ask the old man about his recent situation.

She went to the old man's room, saw the old man drunk on the edge of the bed, didn't say anything, didn't do anything, and left.

Before leaving, he also told himself not to tell the old man about it.

I remember standing behind me at the time, and I couldn't see the woman's face clearly, but when I saw the other party's slightly shaking shoulders, I could feel the woman crying under the cloak.

Since then, the senior brother has not met her again.

This matter has always been hidden in the heart of the senior brother, and now that I think about it, maybe the woman the old man is looking for is her.

Zhao Ke listened to it in his heart, and his heart was shocked, remembering that the cook lady seemed to be wearing a cheongsam, was it a coincidence? ?

Zhao Ke probably thought of a possibility in his heart, but he still pretended to be crazy and said stupidly: "You are not afraid of being a thief, your heart is really big." ”

The senior brother was obviously still recalling the scene at that time, but when Zhao Ke said this, he instantly felt as disgusting as eating a fly.

turned around and glared at Zhao Ke, eager to fight with Zhao Ke now.

But Zhao Ke didn't care.

If it's really what I think, the problem is the cook.

Zhao Ke didn't want Senior Brother and Luo Qing to be involved in the slightest, the matter was related to the postman, and it was best to be known as little as possible about this matter.

It's not a world that normal people should touch.

Since it's been so long, don't think about it so much, what if you come up with any details and key points?

Just then, the door to the ward was opened.

A doctor wearing a disposable sterile gown came out of it, the doctor took off his mask, and said to the senior brother: "Brother Song, the old man's illness is very strange, and there is nothing we can do about it. ”
