Chapter 10: The First Tear
This time, Bai Susu didn't arrive in time, and I paced back and forth anxiously. I saw that at the end of the corridor, Yin Hui was rushing to the ward with a doctor in twos and threes. "Big brother, I'm very busy, do you know how many people die every day in China's 1.4 billion people? Do you know how many people in Hoh, I am in charge of, who need me to receive them every day? Bai Susu's annoyed voice came to my ears, and I was ecstatic.
"The stakes are high, and you have to help me observe my own condition."
"Big brother, are you really unable to tell the difference? What's the urgency? If you collect three tears, you will live, and if you can't, you will have to hang. Did I not explain it or did you not understand? Does it matter if you listen to your condition now? ”
I couldn't refute it for a while, and it seemed to make sense. "No, let me stand here and do nothing, I can't wait, I have to listen. Please help me. I grabbed Bai Susu's hand and asked sincerely. She's a girl after all, and I think she'll be soft-hearted.
"I said I can't interfere in the affairs of the world, how do you want me to help you? Are you trying to force me to make mistakes? ”
"You can find a way to bring me over, as long as you don't make a mistake and let me know what's going on inside."
"The way you said is not feasible, in fact, you can walk through it yourself. The sun only consumes the energy of your soul, and your energy is only enough to sustain you for 49 days. You can choose to force yourself to stand in a place of strong light, and your watch will automatically reduce the time of your mission based on the intensity of the light you are subjected to. Qin Yuan, you think clearly about how to choose by yourself, I really can't help. I still have a task, you can do it yourself. As soon as Bai Susu's voice fell, he hurriedly disappeared.
I saw the doctors in the distance being surrounded into the ward, and it was Ding Xiaofei who stood up on the bench at the door. Did he sleep on a hospital bench all night? When I hesitated, I found that Shen Qian had actually walked up from the dim stairs and sneakily walked in the direction of the ward from my side. She looked nervous and watched the movement in the hospital room from afar.
Then came my college friend Zhang Zheyi, a college classmate and roommate. The last person to enter the room was Li Qi, the little girl at the front desk of my Guangyuan Law Firm. They came out of the elevator one after the other and arrived before the doctor could make an announcement.
I was like an ant on a hot pot watching people come and go, and I had no choice but to guess what was going on inside by the fragments I saw. I didn't dare to rush into the blue sky and white sun, first, I wasn't sure if I could stick to it, and second, I didn't know how much time it would consume on this mission. Such a risk is too great to be blind and radical. I began to think crankily, on such an important day, excluding my parents, only my father-in-law, Yin Hui, Shen Qian, Zhang Zheyi, Ding Xiaofei and Li Qi came to visit me, a total of only six people. I realized that I thought I was a good person, and there were only a handful of people who visited.
Can I think that the three tears I can collect are likely to be produced only among these six people? Li Qi is a working relationship, and the front desk I hired to help contact business and receive customers. We have almost no personal relationships and can be directly ruled out. Ding Xiaofei is the object of my possession, but we don't know each other at all, so it's completely impossible. My father-in-law, Yin Changtian, has never looked at me squarely, and he is obviously not very satisfied with me as a son-in-law. Zhang Zheyi, we are classmates in the law department of Inner Mongolia University. The legal profession in Hohwa is not large, and I have suppressed and excluded my best friend many times because of my work interests, and I am grateful that he can come to visit me. With such an analysis, the number of people with three tears is not enough, do I mean that the court has pronounced a sentence of death and will be executed in a few days?
When I thought about it like this, I was terrified, and I panicked and didn't choose to eat. I don't know how I stepped out of the stairs, how I rushed into the hospital room on a shining summer day. I heard the doctor say righteously: "I'm sorry Mr. Yin, our hospital has done our best, and the patient's brain has been hit by a strong external force and has fallen into a severe coma. The possibility of awakening is already very slim, and it can only depend on the patient's own will to see his own creation. The patient's current state is almost equivalent to that of a vegetative state. ”
There was silence in the ward, and there was silence for a moment, followed by mournful and miserable weeping, one after another. Before I could faint completely, I saw a drop of crystal clear light in front of me instantly rush into my watch, dazzling and dazzling. When I woke up again, it was dusk and the building was empty. Still crouching, I made my way back to the staircase. I hurriedly touched the watch screen, and the sound of the time was announced: You have 46 days, 2 hours, 18 minutes and 09 seconds left. I estimate that the time lost is about 1 day. I was amazed to find that the glass area of my watch was inlaid with a drop of amber-like water, which was crystal clear.
I was ecstatic and looked up to find Bai Susu standing across from me. "Am I successful in collecting a single tear that is 100% left by someone who truly loves me? Did you take me back to the staircase? ”
Bai Susu nodded and said, "I now begin to admire your strong desire to survive." You crawl back on your own feet against your latent consciousness, and for that you lose a day. And you only get a tear. ”
"Susu, I'll be honest with you, I'm scared when I think I might not be able to collect three tears and am about to die. It's not death itself that's scared, it's the fear that the people who love me will lose me so easily. And I haven't even said goodbye to them yet. ”
"People always have it when they don't find it, and they know how to cherish it when they lose it. Don't you want to know who left this tear of yours for you? ”
"What can I do if I know it, and I can't force others to love me. This tear is enough, at least I didn't live in vain, I still have the meaning of existence. ”
"Don't be so pessimistic, don't you have 46 days left? Those who might shed tears for you may not be here today. ”
I took a long breath and said, "I'm not pessimistic, but I don't care about gains and losses anymore." If I can live, I will live, and if I can't, I will die, everything will be fate. But I'm going to make the most of the rest of my time. I lifted my spirits and strode out of the stairs and went straight to the ward. There was no one else in the room except the nurse who changed the drip fluid. I hurried downstairs in the direction of my parents' house, reminiscing about my past life as I walked:
My story should start from the summer when I met Shen Qian in 2011. At that time, I was about to graduate from the law department of Inner Mongolia University, and I was in high spirits. I was struggling with which law firm to intern at, which is a requirement for a lawyer to obtain a practice certificate. After the graduation dinner, I reluctantly cooperated out of politeness at the instigation of the students, and watched a cabaret performance in the theater. I rarely come to such occasions, I am destined to have no connection with art things, and I don't know how to appreciate them. We sat in the first row, and the stage was close at hand. I was drowsy throughout the performance, and the only thing that attracted me was the handsome faces of the girls on stage. My eyes were fixed on the dancing figures of the girls in grease and powder against the bizarre backdrop of the stage. Sometimes they are light, sometimes unrestrained, like a beautiful elves.
