At this time, Jiang Sheng was taking a taxi to the road to the martyrs' cemetery, looking for it all the way.

And Lin Lu walked along the street and shouted, and many unimaginable pictures appeared in his mind, bloody and desperate. She took out her mobile phone, and just as she was about to call Jiang Sheng, his number was displayed on the screen.

Her heart was beating and her hands were shivering, and she picked it up and put it in her ear to answer, "How is it?" ”

The cold and fear made her voice tremble, but the next sentence made her let out a reassuring sigh through the microphone.

"Found it."

“……”

Lin Lu closed his eyes fiercely and shook his hands to smoke a cigarette.

Jiang Sheng said: "You go home and wait, I'll take my aunt back." ”

Lin Lu asked without any tone, "Where are you?" ”

There was a second on the phone, "...... Guang'an Road Police Station. ”

Lin Lu took another deep puff of cigarette, and Jiang Sheng said, "Go back and say." ”

She replied, "Yes. ”

Hanging up the phone, Lin Lu stopped a car, he didn't know when he was looking for someone, and when he actually got in the car, he realized that he had walked so far. His hands and feet were cold, and the wound on the back of his neck was a little uncomfortable.

Lin Lu returned to the courtyard first, she didn't enter the house, and kept waiting for people at the door of the courtyard. After standing against the wall for fifteen minutes, a taxi drove into the alley, and the headlights opened a light strip in the alley, and Jiang Sheng saw Lin Lu standing at the door from a distance, with his hands in his coat pockets, leaning against the wall, and looking sideways.

Waiting for the car to stop, Lin Luren didn't move, and the people in the car pushed the door down after paying the fare.

Lin Jingwen was wearing Jiang Sheng's down jacket, her spirit was a little trance, her hair was messy, her cheeks were red from the cold, Jiang Sheng helped people down, and the taxi drove away.

The red taillights gradually faded away, Jiang Sheng and Lin Jingwen approached, and he said to Lin Lu, "Why didn't you go in?" ”

Lin Lu raised her eyes to look at Lin Jingwen, her eyes were a little unfamiliar when she looked at her, "Mom, where have you been?" ”

"......" Lin Jingwen didn't reply to her, but looked at Jiang Sheng next to her.

Jiang Sheng said: "Aunt Lin, she is your daughter, Lin Lu. ”

Lin Lu looked at Jiang Sheng, and he explained, "Auntie may be a little confused,"

With a snap, the voice stopped abruptly, and Jiang Sheng's face turned to the side.

Lin Lu's eyes were angry, his hands were numb, and Jiang Sheng's ears roared for a few seconds before he quieted down.

He said, "Let's go in and talk, Auntie has been walking outside for two hours, and people are tired and cold." ”

Lin Lu pulled Lin Jingwen over, and the latter saw that she was violent, so he turned his wrist and struggled, not wanting her to pull.

"Let go, you let go of me."

“！” Lin Lu froze in place, looking at Lin Jingwen incredulously.

Jiang Sheng looked at the two of them, opened the door first, then turned around and whispered, "Aunt Lin, enter the house, it's too cold outside." You're going to catch a cold. ”

Lin Jingwen seemed to listen to Jiang Sheng's words, walked into the gatehouse, and walked inside.

Lin Lu didn't move, Jiang Sheng went to take her hand," said when he entered the house. ”

The two of them went in one after the other, and the door of the courtyard was closed, and Jiang Sheng locked it.

Lin Lu helped Lin Jingwen clean up, changed her clothes again, she went to sleep, and the rest of the vegetables Jiang Sheng fried, Lin Lu didn't speak the whole time, after eating, Jiang Sheng cleaned up, and pulled Lin Lu to the West House to talk.

Lin Lu sat at the end of the bed, she didn't leave her cigarette tonight, Jiang Sheng sat over, "The police found her on the side of the road during the night patrol, and when they saw that she was wearing thin clothes, they went over to ask, and the aunt told the police that she was looking for her husband, and asked her where her husband was, and the aunt said......"

Jiang Sheng glanced at Lin Lu, and she asked, "What did you say?" ”

“2993。”

That's the number of Zhao Han's tombstone.

Lin Lu is much calmer now, but her smoking hand is warm after the cold, and her fingertips are itchy, and she crushes her fingertips from time to time.

"Tomorrow," Lin Lu dusted off his cigarette ashes, "and take her to the hospital." ”

Jiang Sheng's eyebrows twisted a deep line, "Okay." ”

From the first time she saw Lin Jingwen, Lin Lu could see that something was wrong with her, that was not the eyes and temperament that Ms. Lin should have, she was dazed and sluggish, which made people feel pain when they looked at it. That's why she couldn't hold back and threw out that slap.

It was supposed to be a joyful reunion, but due to Lin Jingwen's sudden incident, both of them became silent.

Lin Lu looked out the window.

"You should rest early."

Jiang Sheng looked up and chased after her back, "...... Okay, so are you. ”

Lin Lu walked to the door, stopped and looked back, Jiang Sheng was standing in the middle of the room, his right cheek was red and swollen, and finger marks were faintly visible, and he blamed himself and regret in his eyes, looking at Lin Lu's gaze was a little empty.

She said, "I'm sorry. ”

Jiang Sheng was slightly stunned, "...... It's me who should say I'm sorry. ”

Lin Lu went out, and the door to Westinghouse was closed.

Lin Jingwen's room was dark, Lin Lu walked to the door opposite her, pushed it open, and walked in.

Lu Cheng lived here when she came here before, and now she lives here.

The temperature of the boiler made the room warm, and Lin Lu almost didn't sleep all night, getting up and drinking water twice.

Early the next morning, Lin Lu heard a slight noise from the opposite room, she sat up from the bed suddenly, put on her shoes and went over.

"Mom," Lin Lu pushed open the door and called someone, Lin Jingwen was folding the quilt, and turned around, "Why are you screaming so loudly, I'm not deaf." She folded and asked, "What time did you arrive last night?" ”

Lin Lu: ......

Lin Jingwen turned around, "I'm hungry, I'll go make breakfast." ”

When she passed by, she was suddenly hugged by Lin Lu, Lin Jingwen looked at her and smiled, "How old are you, and you are still coquettish." ”

Lin Lu just hugged the person tighter, and then let go, she turned her face and avoided Lin Jingwen, "You rest, I'll do it." ”

She walked out of the West House one step ahead of Lin Jingwen, and when she came out, Jiang Sheng also hurriedly came out of the door.

The two glanced at each other, Jiang Sheng was just about to open his mouth, Lin Lu said, "You look at her, I'll cook." ”

With that, she hurried to the kitchen.

Jiang Sheng looked at Lin Lu's back, and after entering the West House, he saw Lin Jingwen's expression as usual, and he lost the panic and confusion of last night.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Jiang Sheng asked.

"Slept well." He also said, "What time did the fawn arrive, I don't know, whether I went to bed too early last night." ”

Jiang Sheng: ......

He smiled, "yes, you rested too early last night. ”

"She just came in, and she scared me."

"Yes."

Jiang Sheng sat on a chair at the door.

Lin Jingwen went to wash, and Jiang Sheng didn't tell her about last night. After the three of them had breakfast, Lin Lu said, "Mom, let's go to the hospital in a while." ”

"Why do you go to the hospital for the Chinese New Year?"

Jiang Sheng looked at Lin Lu, and she said calmly: "I won't be able to stay for a few days when I come back, so I will take you to check your heart before leaving, and go back to let your attending doctor in the United States take a look at the situation." ”

"That's right." Lin Jingwen didn't doubt it at all, "Today's holiday, can there be a doctor in the hospital?" ”

"Yes." Lin Lu had already called the hospital and found the best local specialists.

Gao Jiachong parked the car at the door, and Jiang Sheng called him in the morning and asked him to pick up people. After getting in the car, Gao Jiachong greeted Lin Jingwen first, and then looked at Lin Lu, "When did you come back?" ”

Lin Lu said: "Early in the morning." ”

Jiang Sheng sat in the passenger seat, "Let's drive." ”

Gao Jiachong retracted his eyes, always felt that the two of them were weird, and he started the car.

"Aunt Lin, what's wrong with you?" Gao Jiachong said something unintentionally, Jiang Sheng's first reaction was to look at Lin Lu from the car's inner mirror, and the latter said, "Routine inspection." ”

"It's also checked for the New Year."

Jiang Sheng really wanted to slap him on the head, so much to say!

Lin Lu said: "Jiachong, is there a lighter?" ”

Gao Jiachong touched his pocket, took out a lighter from the pocket of his down jacket and handed it to the person behind, Lin Lu took it, Lin Jingwen said, "Don't smoke it in the car." ”

Lin Lu took back the cigarette case and put it in his pocket, "I'll get out of the car and smoke it in a while." ”

The conversation was interrupted, and silence fell in the car.

During the Chinese New Year, there are still the last small stalls with couplets in the commercial street, looking forward to the last business at the end of the year.

Looking at the red lantern, Lin Lu retracted his eyes, and Lin Jingwen said, "Do you remember when you were a child, I bought you a small lantern?" It's several laps smaller than that, the size of half a watermelon. ”

Lin Lu recalled that the memory before the age of six was not particularly clear, as if there was such a thing.

"You forgot?" Lin Jingwen asked her.

Lin Lu said: "Remember." ”

"What does a lantern look like?"

This stopped Lin Lu, she didn't reply, Lin Jingwen said: "It's a little rabbit, with golden spikes underneath." The handle has a switch, and the light will turn on when you press it. ”

"Aunt Lin, do you remember everything?" Jiang Sheng smiled.

"Of course, not only do I remember this, she was always sick when she was a child, so I carried her to the hospital in the middle of the night."

Lin Lu listened, her face expressionless, but her eyes were complicated, and her memory became clear with her plain description.

The car slowly drove into the main entrance of the hospital, and four people got out of the car and walked into the hospital.

Lin Lu found the doctor he had contacted before, and first gave Lin Jingwen a Mini-Mental Scale (MME) and an Assessment of Daily Living Ability (ADL) scale, which is currently the most common scale for detecting the degree of impairment of Alzheimer's disease in clinical practice, although it cannot be used as a diagnosis, it can be used as a reference. Then she did some routine examinations and arranged for her to have an electroencephalogram and a CT of the brain.

The final diagnosis was: Alzheimer's disease.
