Chu Man was behind him, pushed me into the room, and said unrelentingly: "Just a heartless person like you, I'm afraid the knife is on the neck, and there won't be any pressure..."

She stopped talking, and when she entered the room, she seemed surprised to see the old man's panicked face.

The old man hurriedly waved his hand at us, and said restlessly, "Close the door, close it quickly." ”

"Oh." Hatsuman didn't know what was going on, and as he agreed, he closed the door.

The old man returned to his bedside with some trembling, anxiously groping for something, for a long time, he took out a small wooden box under the pillow, came to me in three steps and two steps, took my hand and said: "Young man, although we have not been together for a long time, I can see that you are a good person with a sense of justice, I have a reluctant request, if it is not urgent, I will not trouble you, please help me keep this box." ”

Saying that, he put the small wooden box in the palm of my hand, and closed my hand, without waiting for me to speak, he said: "I don't have time to explain to you now, but I absolutely believe in your character, this box is very important to me, but now I can't take it with me, you must help me hide this box, except for the two of you, you can't let a third person know, you must not open this box, when the matter is over, I will come to you." ”

With that, he turned and put on a coat, picked up his cane, glanced out the window again, and hurried in the direction of the door, as if in a hurry to flee for his life.

Before leaving, he turned his head, looked at me with a serious face, and said to me: "If you don't want to die, don't open the box, you must hide it, don't let the third person know that this box exists, and you can't give it to anyone." After saying that, he shook the door and left.

It took me a long time to recover. looked at the box in his hand, thinking about the last words of the old man, and vaguely seemed to hear the sound of the timer: "Huh? Huh? Grandpa, wait a minute, isn't this a ticking time bomb for me, when will you come back, how can I contact you? ”

Holding the box and chasing out, looking left and right, he was not seen in the long corridor of the hospital, among the doctors and patients who came and went.

I couldn't react in surprise for a while, and stayed where I was, what kind of person is this old man, how did he run so fast, not so much to leave, but to say, after he went out of this door, he evaporated.

was hesitating to chase to the left, or to the right, and at a glance, a group of people in black were walking towards this side with great momentum.

My heart tightened suddenly, I had a sense of foreboding, I forced myself to calm down, turned around and went back to the ward, closed the door with a bang, jumped on the bed, covered it with a quilt, and held the small box in the palm of my right hand, because I didn't know where to hide it, and I didn't know what would happen, my heart and body couldn't help but tremble.

The brain has stopped working, and it can't think about what happened in just a few minutes.

Who the hell is that old man, and what is this box?

Why was my life forcibly rewritten by someone else in just a few minutes?

I'm just a patient who has passed out and was taken to the hospital involuntarily, and at this time, wouldn't it be better to go to the morgue and lie down for a while?

After a while, the door was pushed open, I squinted, and saw a group of people in black coming in, my heart was about to jump to my throat, seven or eight people who came in, all of them were sturdy and hideous, if you gave each of them a stick in their hands, wouldn't it be the fierce underworld in the movie.

However, even without knives and sticks, this formation is enough to make people frightened, extremely nervous, so that my throat can't help but smoke, extremely dry, secretly swallowing saliva, maybe too too nervous, but at this time, the hungry stomach gurgled twice.

It's over, this time it's decided, it will definitely attract their attention, I don't know what is in this box, but I am sure that Li Guomin, who fled in panic, and the man in black who chased him, a healthy old man, pretended to be a seriously ill patient, and hid in a hospital that was patrolled twenty-four hours a day, it must be because, only in this way, can he escape the pursuit of the murderer.

Just as I was closing my eyes tightly and trembling like chaff, I heard a deep voice say in surprise: "Boss, are we in the wrong place?" ”

I looked at it secretly, and the man frowned and retreated, looked up and down, left and right, and muttered and came in again: "Ward 723, that's right, why does this hospital still have a veterinary department?" ”

A man with sunglasses, covering his mouth and nose with an expressionless face, hit the back of the man's head hard, and then ordered: "What veterinarian department, go in and find it." ”

Looking at the way he gave orders, it must be the boss of these people. It's just that he looked at me in disgust, looked at the pet lying on the ground, and said very unhappily: "What kind of hospital is this, even cats and dogs can live in." ”

Hearing this, Chu Man pinched his waist, stepped forward and said, "Who do you say are cats and dogs?" Look at the way you look in a suit and leather shoes, why do you speak so ugly. ”

At this time, my heart is really half cold, this girl, no matter when, can't see the situation clearly, stay honestly, how can you pick up any scolding, the momentum of these people, no matter how you look at it, they are not gentlemen, and the blind know that they are not easy to mess with.

To my surprise, the man in sunglasses did not scold angrily, but said with some embarrassment: "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean you, I meant them, I'm allergic to animals." He said, pointing to the dog and cat lying on the ground.

Chu Man glanced at him unappreciatively, and wanted to say something, I quickly pretended to be uncomfortable, coughed, and finally picked up a life, don't give it away.

Chu Man seemed to understand my intentions, snorted coldly, and turned around and walked back.

A few people were rummaging up and down around Li Guomin's hospital bed, what they were looking for, I knew very well in my heart, and it was precisely because I knew it in my heart that I was even more afraid.

Who are they, what is it in this small box, remembering Grandpa Li's eyes when he left, and his words.

If you don't want to die, you have to hide this box and not let a third person know. I'm afraid I can't keep this point, because in addition to me and Chu Man, there are three dogs and a cat in this house, and they all heard it.

At this moment, Angel lazily jumped on the bed, lay on the quilt, pressed my right hand, and meowed.

Shocked, I raised my head to look at it, this guy, obviously a cute folded ear cat, but extremely black, the corners of its mouth are clearly smiling, its eyes are full of provocative taste, squinting at me, screaming from time to time.

This, this is clearly hinting at the man in black, the small box is in my hand, I can't help but sweat in my palms, and I hate the roots of my teeth, you conscienceless belly black cat, actually betrayed the master.

Sure enough, the man in black was attracted by her cry, and a burly man with a full beard and dark skin walked towards me, looking at his appearance, in the gang, he must be the kind of fierce and cruel killer, the kind that kills people without blinking.

His cold gaze stared at me like a knife, and although it was still far from my bed, I seemed to feel that the invisible knife in his hand had been coldly pressed against my throat.

He asked sharply, "Hey, boy, ask you something, do you know, where did the old man who lived in that bed go?" He asked me as he pointed to an empty bed.

I opened my eyes weakly, didn't dare to look at him, my eyes avoided, and I said without confidence: "No, I don't know." ”

"Did he give you anything?"

My heart chuckled, shrunk into the quilt, and muttered insincerely: "I don't know him well, how can he give me anything, no, not give it to me." ”

It's over, as soon as I finish speaking, I regret it, I will lose too many words, this kind of statement that wants to cover up, he will definitely doubt me.

Sure enough, he frowned, took a step forward, and stretched out his hand as if to pull my quilt.

Suddenly, a feeling of suffocation came to my heart, if he pulled open my quilt and could see the box in his right hand at a glance, then I would really be dead, and I couldn't help but close my eyes, at this time, what else could I do but wait for death.
