On that day, Bai Sumei's mobile phone received two MMS messages from Ajie's grandfather, in which Ajie was lying on a bed at Aba Prefecture People's Hospital, her face was scarred, covered with black blood shells, and there were many scars on her arms, and thick white bandages were wrapped around her palms. Immediately afterward, Applejack's grandfather calls Bai Sumei, and as soon as Bai Sumei hears Applejack's grandfather's trembling voice, she knows that something has happened to Applejack and them.

Sure enough, Grandpa Ajie choked up and told her that the agate mine collapsed, Ajie was crushed by a stone, trapped in the mine all night, until the rescue team composed of the armed police force arrived, and he came out, his ribs were broken twice, and his lungs were cut, which was very serious, and he had to have surgery the morning after tomorrow at the latest, otherwise it would be life-threatening, but at least 200,000 yuan in medical expenses, he barely scraped together 30,000 yuan, and there was a gap of 100,000 yuan, Ajie's grandfather begged Bai Sumei to help him think of a way.

Applejack's grandfather puts his phone on Applejack's cheek, and Applejack calls out to Bai Sumei in a weak voice: Sister Meimei...... I miss you...... My stomach hurts...... When are you ...... Come and see me?

Bai Sumei's tears flowed down the ground, and she said: Ajie, I will come to see you, you don't have to think about anything, recuperate with peace of mind.

After Applejack hands the phone to his grandfather, Sumei asks Applejack's grandfather how the other children are doing. Ajie's grandfather told Bai Sumei that except for Li Mo, who had a severe cold that day and took leave, the other three children ...... All three children were killed.

Bai Sumei's mobile phone slipped from the palm of her hand and smashed to the ground, the screen was torn apart, and her heart was broken.

She was stunned, wiped away her tears, quickly picked up her mobile phone, and called Tang Long, and after a while, they met on the forest path of Shenda Rhododendron Mountain.

The weather in October was still very hot and dry, it was dusk, the sunset was like blood plasma in the sky, a little dazzling, a few sharp bird calls cut through the skin of the sun like a thin knife, insects whispered in the grass, bloodthirsty mosquitoes pounced on Tang Long and Bai Sumei, and there was silence and no one around.

Bai Sumei's hair was a little messy, her eyes and nose were red, and her eyes were frightened. She briefly told him about Applejack, and then asked Tang Long how much money he had in the card, Tang Long told Bai Sumei that he had 75,000 in the card, and Bai Sumei said, lend me 60,000, and you can keep the rest.

No, you can take all the 70,000 yuan, just give me the fraction, I can play games to make money. Tang Long said to Bai Sumei.

He understands Bai Sumei's feelings for these children. He immediately transferred 70,000 yuan to Bai Sumei's bank card through Alipay.

Bai Sumei saved 50,000 yuan by working part-time as a card girl, and the money of the two of them was 120,000 yuan, and there was a difference of 50,000 yuan. Time is urgent, what should I do with the 50,000 yuan? Where did it come from? Bai Sumei was so anxious that she scratched her hair and turned in circles.

Tang Long thought of Tang Qiang, and with a glimmer of hope, he called Tang Qiang's phone, and Tang Qiang quickly answered.

"Dad......"

"Hmm!"

"Can you lend me 50,000 dollars?"

Bai Sumei looked at Tang Long tightly.

"Fifty thousand dollars? What do you want 50,000 yuan for? ”

"One of my junior brothers was injured in an accident, his lung ruptured, and he was dying, lying in the hospital waiting for surgery, and there was still a shortage of 50,000 yuan for the operation."

"You asked me to lend money for your junior brother's surgery?" Tang Qiang asked coldly.

"Is that okay, Dad? I'll play the game and give it back to you. Tang Long begged.

"Are you crazy?"

Tang Long was silent.

"Borrowing money for someone to heal? You're such a living Lei Feng! Last time you injured someone else, I gave 80,000 yuan, and now I borrow 50,000 yuan from me, do you think I opened a bank? I'm just a part-time worker in Shenzhen. ”

"Dad, it's not a last resort, I won't borrow money from you, if you don't save him, he'll die."

Bai Sumei looked at Tang Long and nodded eagerly.

"What does it have to do with me when he's dead? He's just one of your junior brothers, and you don't seem to be so kind to your relatives. Besides, are there still fewer dead people in this world? What day in Africa and the Middle East don't die? You have a heart of fraternity, go and save it! Can you save it, kid? ”

"Dad......"

"Don't talk about it." Tang Long interrupted him and said, "It's easy to say anything else, but there's no way to ask for money." ”

After Tang Qiang finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Tang Long put down his phone and lowered his head. After a few seconds, Tang Long raised his head, looked at Bai Sumei and said, "Sumei, why don't I borrow it from the head coach!" Applejack is also a student of the head coach, and I believe he will not die without help. ”

"Forget it, it's better to ask for others than for yourself, let's figure it out by yourself!" Bai Sumei shook her head and said.

They silently walked out of the nowhere of the nowhere to be seen, and returned to their respective dormitories.

Two days later, although Tang Long didn't know where Bai Sumei got the 50,000 yuan, he knew that Ajie's surgery went on as scheduled and was very successful, and on the Friday night of the week Ajie had the operation, Bai Sumei bought a sleeper train ticket and went to Chengdu, and then transferred to a bus from Chengdu to Aba Prefecture. When she arrived at Aba Prefecture People's Hospital, she sent Tang Long a lot of photos, most of which were photos of her with Ajie and Li Mo, in which she sat on the edge of the bed, hugging Ajie and Li Mo, who came to visit Ajie, smiling as brightly as a flower.

Applejack is pale and very weak just a few days after surgery, but she also smiles happily. Li Mo is estimated to be still in the grief of losing his friend, with a straight face, and he can't see a trace of joy. There is also a photo, Tang Long saw that under the hazy sky was a withered yellow cemetery, there were three new graves in the cemetery, in front of the tombstone of each tomb, there was a bouquet of flowers, the flowers were bought by Bai Sumei, Tang Long knew that it was the graves of Zhang Tiantian, Wang Xiaolin, and Zhang Shuai. Tang Long remembered the time he had trained with them in the Pengqiang Club, and burst into tears.

After Bai Sumei came back, Tang Long found that Bai Sumei had lost her former joy and enthusiasm, her brows were full of hidden worries, and she looked preoccupied. asked her, didn't say anything, asked her out to watch a movie or eat, she refused without exception, didn't answer the phone, sent her WeChat, she would only reply for a long time, which was completely different from Bai Sumei before.

Tang Long didn't know if it was the accident that happened to those children that affected her mental state or if he did something wrong. However, looking back on the recent days together, he has never done anything wrong and never made her angry. Bai Sumei's state infected Tang Long like a virus, making him depressed.
