Chapter 2 Farewell without saying goodbye
The next day, I went to the roof of the hospital as usual in the morning, after the doctor's rounds.
The rooftop was empty, and I looked around, but there was no Xu Wen.
I thought it was Xu Wen who was delayed, but I didn't wait for him to appear until it was almost noon, and then I suddenly remembered what Xu Wen said to me yesterday morning, and I hurriedly went downstairs.
Xu Wen's ward was on the sixth floor, three floors higher than mine, and although I hadn't been to his ward, he had invited me to play, and I happened to have something to do at that time, so I had to decline.
6058, Xu Wen's ward number.
There was no Xu Wen in the room, but there was a doctor, and a pair of middle-aged men and women with anxious faces saw me rush in, and the eyes of the three of them couldn't help but focus on me.
"That, I'm sorry, you're Xu Wen's parents, right?" I asked breathlessly.
Xu Wen's parents were stunned, and after glancing at each other, Xu Wen's father nodded: "May I ask if you are-"
I raised my hand to stop him from talking: "I'm a friend of Xu Wen - I'll talk about this later—have you found Xu Wen?" ”
Xu Wen's parents' expressions were even more surprised, and his father was surprised: "How do you know that Xiaowen is missing?" ”
"Judging by your expressions, then he really ran away." I would love to help Xu Wen hide it from his parents, but even if I don't say it, they will quickly understand the fact that Xu Wen is leaving, and they will be more worried when the time comes, and I can at least help Xu Wen cover up his purpose for running away.
When Xu Wen's mother heard me say this, she immediately stepped forward quickly, grabbed one of my arms, and said in a tone that was almost pleading: "If you know where my Xiaowen is, you must tell us, we must find Xiaowen, do you know, he is still sick......
"Don't worry, Auntie." I turned to the somewhat helpless doctor standing in the ward, "Hello, I'm a special consultant of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Seongnam Police Bureau, my name is Yoshimitsu. Now, I need you to contact the relevant departments of the hospital immediately, start broadcasting the search, and give me my phone-"
I stretched out my hand to the doctor, who was stunned and hesitated for a moment, but probably remembered my self-introduction, and the next second he hurriedly took out his phone and handed it to me. I immediately dialed my number from the doctor's mobile phone, and after hearing the phone ringing, I handed the doctor's mobile phone back to the other party: "Regardless of whether anyone is found, in ten minutes, call me to tell me the news, thank you!" ”
"Got it!" The doctor didn't question me, took the phone, and made a quick call as he walked out of the room.
Although I didn't explain anything to him, the words "Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Police Bureau" still carry a lot of weight.
"Yoshi, Mr. Yoshimitsu, is it? I'm sorry, I just heard you say that the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Police Bureau - what happened to my Xiaowen? It was Xu Wen's father who spoke.
When Xu Wen's mother heard this, she immediately became paralyzed, and I quickly helped her sit on Xu Wen's hospital bed, "Xiaowen, Xiaowen, don't scare your mother, what happened to you, Xiaowen ......" Xu Wen's mother cried.
I just had time to look at Xu Wen's parents: both of them are of medium stature, about 45 years old, their skin condition and clothing do not look like they have done heavy physical work, and their income should be slightly higher than that of ordinary working families.
"Look around, if Xu Wen left any notes, letters or anything like that, or check your mobile phone text messages, WeChat or something." I ignored Xu Wen's father's questions, and I didn't have time to comfort Xu Wen's mother—now was obviously not the time to explain these things.
Xu Wen's father woke up like a dream: "Yes! Right! Now is not the time to talk about that. ”
The three of us almost completely rummaged through the ward, and when we began to rummage through the messages that Xu Wen might have left behind, the hospital had already begun to broadcast a radio to find Xu Wen.
Ten minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and my phone rang - bad news, Xu Wen was not in the hospital.
Another piece of bad news is that Xu Wen didn't leave any messages either.
"Xu Wen actually knew what kind of disease he had from the beginning, and he heard what the doctor said to you. Your son is very strong, you know, there are not many people who can stay calm with such a serious illness. Also because of the illness, your son will definitely have some changes in his psychology, and he may have this reason for running away this time - but don't worry too much, Xu Wen won't think about doing stupid things, maybe he just can't bear it anymore and wants to leave for a while. ”
I tried to dismiss Xu Wen's parents, but I was really not good at this kind of thing, so, halfway through, I gave up persuasion and started to start a fact-based explanation—after all, I was better at judging something as directly and unemotionally as possible.
I asked for Xu Wen's parents' mobile phone, and I also left my own phone number to him.
"What you have to do now is to sort out all of Xu Wen's interpersonal relationships in as much detail as possible, such as information about close friends and so on, to me as soon as possible, in addition, you will do the contact work on your relatives' side, and tell me as soon as there is news, understand?" At this point, I had basically decided that Xu Wen must have gone to the "special competition" with a million-dollar prize money he said, so Xu Wen's parents' search was almost doomed to be useless - but if they were not given something to do, they would probably go crazy.
After receiving an affirmative answer, I immediately returned to my hospital room, changed out of my hospital gown, and planned to leave the hospital directly.
But when I walked out of the ward, I was blocked in the corridor by Shen Tangzhi.
Shen Tangzhi didn't speak, just glanced at the regular clothes on my body with his eyes.
I knew that she had seen through my purpose, and immediately stopped thinking about it, and said directly: "I want to be discharged from the hospital." ”
"Are you not going to keep your promise?"
"I'm sorry, but I have a particular reason."
"Unspeakable?"
"Not really, it's just-"
"In a hurry?"
"Hmm."
Shen Tangzhi stared at me for two seconds, "Go ahead, I'll make up a discharge procedure for you." She said.
I was a little confused for a while, she, Shen Tang's Shen Da Section Chief, actually let me go so easily? But since she has opened her mouth rarely, it would be too stupid for me not to take the opportunity to slip away.
"Thank you for your understanding, thank you."
After I walked more than a dozen steps, Shen Tangzhi's voice came faintly from behind, slightly murderous: "If you let me know that you broke the agreement because of boring reasons such as 'dating girls', I will definitely book you a long-term bed here." ”
Shen Tangzhi's words almost made me stumble, I shivered all over, quickly quickened my pace, and fled to leave the hospital that had trapped me for half a month.
