Luo Xiao didn't go out today, and stayed at home by himself. Originally, Qi Youlin asked her to go out together, but Luo Xiao said that she didn't sleep well last night and wanted to rest at home today.

After Zhang Hao, He Dawei and Qi Youlin left, Luo Xiao was the only one left in the huge villa. Fortunately, she has often been home alone for most of the year, and she does not feel lonely, and she has many things to do, such as cleaning the house, watering the potted plants on the balcony, and pruning the plants in the yard. Originally, these were done by hiring special personnel, but after Luo Xiao's car accident, those people were dismissed, so these jobs fell on Luo Xiao. She didn't feel very tired, and she enjoyed doing these things, maybe she thought they were the joy of life.

Today, like many previous days when he was at home, Luo Xiao simply cleaned the house, then took a book to the small garden in the courtyard and sat down, and read it quietly.

It seems that after the car accident, Luo Xiao suddenly fell in love with traditional paper books, but before the car accident, in addition to school textbooks, Luo Xiao had hardly read a few paper books, and she was like most young people, reading e-books. But now, she feels that only traditional paper books can be read, so since she recuperated at home, the study room, which she had barely entered a few times before, has become the room she has entered the most except for the bedroom and the painting room.

At this moment, Luo Xiao was sitting in the garden, her face did not look like she hadn't slept well last night, she quietly read the book for nearly an hour, and then looked at the flowers and plants in the courtyard for a little daze. Suddenly sighed, closed the book and got up to go back to the house, but went directly into the monitoring room next to it.

People are always prone to make some low-level mistakes when they are emotional, such as Zhang Hao and Qi Youlin last night, they forgot that the whole house except for the bedroom and bathroom is actually within the scope of monitoring, and naturally includes the balcony where they kissed passionately.

Luo Xiao turned on the surveillance computer and found the surveillance video of the balcony last night without half an effort. The valuable night vision monitor plays a very good role at this time, although it is also late at night, but the picture is very clear.

Watching her husband and best friend kiss like no one on the balcony of their house, Luo Xiao's face not showed any angry expression, but watched the video back and forth several times, and a strange smile rose on the corner of his mouth. Then, the video was cut, deleted, the monitoring computer was turned off, and the monitoring room left as if nothing had happened.

Luo Xiao stood at the door, looking at his picturesque courtyard and stretched: "The weather is really good, you should go out for a walk." ”

――――――――――――――――――――

At this moment in the hospital, Wang Yanfei is putting all the reports about Luo Xiao's condition on the table. Sitting across from her was an old man with a white beard, who was none other than her mentor, Professor Ji Dongping, a well-known brain specialist.

"That's all the information about the patient, what do you think should be done, teacher?" Wang Yanfei took all the information to Ji Dongping one by one, waiting for his opinion.

"It's really rare for a patient with such a large brain tumor to live a normal life without being affected." Ji Dongping frowned, he has encountered any kind of case after practicing medicine for decades, but like Luo Xiao, he can count it on one hand.

"It is not completely without effects, and according to the patient's family, the patient's recent mental condition seems to be very unstable. The specific manifestations are severe forgetfulness, not remembering what they have done, and they may also suffer from sleepwalking. ”

"Sleepwalking? Have you used to have it too? Or did you just find out recently? ”

Wang Yanfei explained: "It didn't have before, but it only appeared recently, and the patient's family reported to me that she had recently painted a strange painting, but she herself had no memory of painting that painting at all. ”

"Forgetfulness...... Sleepwalking......" Ji Dongping picked up the X-ray again, stared at the huge tumor that occupied almost one-third of the space in the ventricles, and suddenly seemed to have found a problem, and said busily: "Her brain stem seems to be a little strange." ”

Wang Yanfei leaned over to take a look and explained: "I also found that it seems that the brain stem has been deformed because it has been compressed by the tumor for a long time. ”

Ji Dongping shook his head: "If the brain stem is compressed like this, it is impossible for the patient to be completely unaffected, and it is even possible to die suddenly." ”

Wang Yanfei immediately understood what Ji Dongping meant, and also realized that he seemed to have been ignoring an important issue. The brainstem is a very important part of the nervous system, which involves nerve pathways and the most basic functions such as breathing and heartbeat to maintain life, and any damage will be life-threatening. And Luo Xiao's brain stem has been compressed to the point of severe deformation, but she can still live like an ordinary person, this is ...... There must be something in this that is not clearly checked.

In fact, it's not that Wang Yanfei is not careful enough, but Luo Xiao's situation is too special, Wang Yanfei's attention has been on the huge brain tumor and Luo Xiao's mental condition, but he has ignored this vital brain part.

Ji Dongping put down the X-ray, sighed and said, "Let the patient come for an examination as soon as possible, our information is not enough, and we can't determine how to deal with it." ”

"Okay, I'll notify the patient's family."

――――――――――――――――――――

Zhang Hao went home in the evening, but he stood at the door for a long time and did not enter the house. I don't know why, after what happened in the past few days, Zhang Hao always felt that this family was a little scary. Especially after seeing the 'true face' of that painting under the ultraviolet light last night, I didn't dare to face Luo Xiao.

He didn't know if the woman in this luxurious villa was his wife Luo Xiao, or the 'Luo You' who painted the terrifying painting.

"Husband? Why don't you come in, what are you doing at the door? Luo Xiao shouted at the door of the house, holding a broom in her hand and seemingly sweeping the fallen leaves at the door.

"Oh...... Key, key can't be found. Zhang Hao's reaction was quite fast, in fact, this kind of little lie is simply open to a man.

"It's such an adult, I can't find the key, so won't you give me a call." Luo Xiao walked to the door and opened the door, but saw that Zhang Hao's face seemed to be a little bad, "What's the matter, your face is so ugly?" ”

Zhang Hao hurriedly shook his head: "No, it's nothing." That one...... I forgot to bring dinner, do you have anything to eat at home? ”

"Huh? How do you know I made dinner today? ”
