Chapter XVIII Discharge
The girl looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, with a small face on her back, blinking her eyes, and looking at the man next to her expectantly.
Shen Luotian was almost out of breath by her small animal-like wet eyes, and even had the illusion of being hit by an arrow in the chest.
A Lori!
Standing right before me, a living ...... Ah no, she's dead......
But even if it's dead, she's still Lori.
Lori is justice!
Shen Luotian heard the voice of wailing in his heart.
At the same time, a few words flashed through his mind.
West, Xi, Xixi......
He settled on the final answer in a matter of seconds. Then he lowered his head and smiled at the expectant girl beside him, and took out a post-it note from his school bag, as well as a pen.
"Your name, come here, I'll write it to you." As he spoke, he took the little girl by the collar and lifted her to his lap and sat down.
The girl sat on his lap and watched his movements curiously.
Shen Luotian supported the edge of the table with one hand to prevent the girl from slipping off his lap, and with the other hand holding the pen, he quickly made a few strokes on the post-it note, and gently bowed his head and said to her: "That's the word...... The tide of the tide, do you remember? ”
The girl looked down at the post-it notes on the table, reached out and scratched it on the table a few times, and slowly nodded her head a few times.
Shen Luotian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Just remember."
The girl...... After Xiao Xi scratched the word on the table a few more times, he took the initiative to slide from his lap to the ground, and turned to walk towards Ning Lu in the corner.
She walked a few steps, and suddenly turned around as if she remembered something, timidly pointed to the post-it note on the table, and asked in a low voice, "Is it okay?" ”
"Ah...... OK. Shen Luotian raised his hand and removed the post-it note from the table. Attached to Xiaoxi's wrist, "You take it." ”
Xiao Xi looked down at the note on his wrist and bent his eyes.
She returned to Ning Lu's face, stretched out her wrist at her, and showed her the words on it.
"Shio...... Tides ......," she said softly.
Ning Lu was already stunned by the scene just now, and she didn't know what she should do to react at all.
"Oh......" She stared blankly at the note on Xiaoxi's wrist, and responded with a blank voice.
Xiaoxi looked at her expectantly.
"Hmm...... Sounds good......" Ning Lu spit out a few words with difficulty. I can't organize a complete sentence.
Xiaoxi didn't care about it, after she read the note to Ning Lu, she seemed to have found some new fun, stretched out her finger and kept scratching the word "Xi" on the wall, her face was full of concentration, and she completely fell into her own world.
Ning Lu looked at the movements of Xiaoxi's hand and was stunned for a moment before she suddenly came back to her senses.
This girl won't have a problem with her brain when she is alive, right?
Or did you hit your head when you died?
Anyway, don't you think you're weird about that handsome guy with long hair over there!
Why didn't I see so many strange people when I was alive? How come you can see everything when you die!
Ah no, no, no...... The point doesn't seem to be this.
I said that handsome guy over there, can't you just finish watching that episode and check things up, there's only five minutes left, hey!
Ning Lu looked at the computer screen of "that handsome guy"-Shen Luotian with resentment, and sighed melancholy.
My life is really miserable.
She thought.
When I was alive, I couldn't chase it well, but I didn't expect that I couldn't even die.
Shen Luotian didn't feel the resentment behind him at all, and of course he might feel it and didn't care. He was looking at the complex information changing on the computer screen, searching for what he could use. Keep it in your head and sift through them one by one.
The spectacle lenses perched on the bridge of his nose shimmered with an icy glow. It is impossible to see his true expression.
The tiny mouse in the hospital room rang all night.
The summer north wind is actually not very good.
Although he was asleep, he was not completely asleep, but he could not wake up, and always maintained a kind of trance and half-asleep state, and lay in bed all night.
In this case, he naturally did not dream. But there have been some chaotic voices ringing in my ears. Not only that, but he could even vaguely feel that Shen Luotian was tossing the computer beside him,
But the most terrible thing is the disgusting smell of disinfectant water. Always haunting his side, his brain hurts.
It's obviously lying in bed and sleeping, but it's more painful than staying up all night. This feeling is also ...... It's hard to put into words.
When he opened his eyes facing the rising sun, he even had the illusion of relief.
Shen Luotian was already staring at the three two-dimensional beautiful girls on the computer screen with his chin propped up, and let out a few weird laughs from time to time.
"Xiao Tian." Xia Beifeng shouted at him, sat up from the hospital bed with his body propped up, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers in front of his eyes, "Wake up...... What time is it? ”
Shen Luotian came back to his senses at this time, raised his eyes and glanced at Xia Beifeng.
"It's past seven o'clock."
"Hmm......" Xia Beifeng touched his chin and pondered for a while, "It's time for breakfast." ”
Shen Luotian didn't make a sound, just nodded, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and flipped through the takeaway software.
Warm sunlight poured into the room, spreading a brilliant golden hue on the floor.
Ning Lu shrank in the shadow in the corner of the room, looking at the large amount of sunlight on the ground quite fearfully, but her eyes couldn't help but show a little nostalgia.
As for Xiaoxi, she returned to the button on Shen Luotian's wrist as early as when the sun was just showing up, avoiding the morning sun all over the ground.
"Ah, yes." Shen Luotian turned off the computer and said to Xia Beifeng: "I went to ask yesterday, and they said that if you have a strong will, you can be discharged from the hospital this afternoon." ”
Xia Beifeng was yawning in a daze, and his eyes glared suddenly when he heard this.
"Great......"
"But I still have something to do today, and I'm going out after breakfast." Shen Luotian said and put a bunch of things on the table into his schoolbag, and smiled at his brother, "You can find a way to go home by yourself in the afternoon." ”
"Huh?"
Do you mean that I should go through the discharge procedures by myself and then go home by myself?
Do you remember that I was a wounded?
It's still the kind that can't even walk the road!
Shen Luotian pulled the zipper of the schoolbag. After confirming that he hadn't left anything behind, he raised his hand at the north wind in the summer.
"Do you want to leave the car keys?"
Xia Beifeng glanced down at his calf that was helping to bandage.
"No thanks." He said calmly: "You can go out and play, just be careful not to scrape." ”
"Oh, thank you then." Shen Luotian smiled and threw the string of shiny keys into the air, and reached out to catch it, "I'll remember to cheer you on." ”
Xia Beifeng sighed. No more talking.
It wasn't until the takeaway was delivered and the two of them got together and ate half of breakfast together that he asked in hindsight: "Ah, by the way, what are you doing today, where are you going?" ”
"Hmm......" Shen Luotian bit his chopsticks and thought for a while, then nodded at Xia Beifeng, "There's a comic exhibition over there." ”
Xia Beifeng: "......"
Just to go to a comic convention, did you leave me in the hospital?
Shen Luotian looked at Xia Beifeng's surprised expression, and tried hard to defend himself: "Brother." You see, I don't usually go out, don't I? Actually, I want to go to a comic convention every time there's a comic show, but right...... Well, you know, anyway, this time it was just right, I also came out, and I wanted to stop by to take a look......"
As he said this, his voice gradually weakened, until he finally closed his mouth and looked at Xia Beifeng cautiously.
"Forget it. You don't have to explain. Xia Beifeng waved his hand at him and turned his head to the side. It's just out of sight and out of mind.
"You go, play wherever you like, I will not care about you."
Shen Luotian breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he took a piece of beef from his brother's bowl.
"I don't care where you go, but you put the meat down for me." Xia Beifeng turned his back to him, looked at the glass at the door of the ward, and spoke in a tone that did not fluctuate, "Do you think I'm used to you." It's time to start making inches. ”
Shen Luotian quickly stuffed the piece of beef into his mouth, chewed it hastily, and swallowed it.
Xia Beifeng suddenly felt that his stomach seemed to start to ache faintly.
Just like the beef that has been eaten will not be spit out again, the younger brother who went to see the comic exhibition also said that he would leave, and there was no thought of turning back at all.
In the afternoon of the same day. Xia Beifeng was lying on the hospital bed and scrolling on Weibo, and when he saw a large number of photos of the comic exhibition posted by Shen Luotian, he couldn't help but sigh again.
"You say, this child in our family was obviously very well-behaved when he was a child, how did he grow up like this?"
He asked the man sitting next to the hospital bed with a sad expression.
Ye Tianlang lowered his head and peeled an apple without saying a word.
"Hey, you know what? When he was a child, he didn't have the height of my waist, and he followed me every day and called my brother and brother. It doesn't feel like it's been a few days, why did you grow so big? ”
Ye Tianlang threw the apple peel into the trash, reached out and handed the apple to Xia Beifeng.
Xia Beifeng took the apple, took a bite hard, and muttered unrelentingly: "I actually went to see the Comic Con, let me go home by myself......"
Ye Tianlang smiled and put away the knife, took out his mobile phone from Xia Beifeng's hand, and stood up.
"Instructor, you can't leave yet."
Xia Beifeng quickly swallowed the apple in his mouth, raised his head and looked at the person standing in front of him in surprise.
"I really didn't expect it, how can I even ...... you"
"What's wrong with me?" Ye Tianlang asked calmly.
The folding knife in his hand kept opening and closing, making a crisp sound. The snow-bright silver light on the blade flickered, dangling in Xia Beifeng's eyes.
"No, you didn't ...... much You're fine, you're very nice. ”
After Xia Beifeng said this, he finished nibbling on the apple in a few bites, and moved it under the hospital bed with difficulty.
Ye Tianlang turned the knife in his hand a few times before putting it back in his pocket, and raised his hand to support Xia Beifeng's arm.
He lowered his head, looked at Xia Beifeng, who was struggling to put on his shoes, and spit out two words.
"Actually......"
Xia Beifeng's movements paused and looked up at him suspiciously.
"I wanted to go to the Comic Con today." Ye Tianlang glanced at Xia Beifeng's half-tied shoelaces, and sighed rather melancholy, "But although it's a little troublesome for me to ask for leave, it's not like your brother who won't go out for months, so if you don't go this time, you won't go." ”
Xia Beifeng lowered his head in a complicated mood, buried his head and continued to toss the shoelace.
"When I heard you say that, I suddenly felt that I was really guilty!"
"You know it, so can you get that lace of your shoes quickly?"
"That's it!" Xia Beifeng took a deep breath, raised his head, and said to Ye Tianlang: "I always feel that my eyes are still flowery...... Let's go. ”
After he said this, he reached out and leaned against the wall beside him, and made his way to the door of the ward.
From the back, it looks like a model of the disabled and strong.
Ye Tianlang put his hands in his trouser pockets, and slowly followed Xia Beifeng, who was limping, out of the ward.
"Something suddenly came to me." Xia Beifeng walked a few steps in the corridor of the hospital, then turned back to Ye Tianlang and said, "I don't know if you're busy...... What are you looking at? ”
Ye Tianlang was standing at the door of the ward, holding the doorknob with one hand, as if he was about to close the door, but he stopped for some reason.
"I thought it was ...... when I came yesterday There seems to be someone else in this room......"
He frowned and looked at the empty ward, with a confused expression on his face, and asked Xia Beifeng behind him, "Instructor, haven't you always felt that something was wrong?" ”
"I just had a car accident the day before yesterday, and now I see that there are still double visions, and everything is wrong with my body." Xia Beifeng raised his hand and patted Ye Tianlang's shoulder twice, and said seriously: "Young man, have you been too busy with work recently, and you are a little nervous!" ”
"I've been not busy at all lately, and I'm going to grow mushrooms when I'm free." Ye Tianlang's eyes roamed back and forth in the ward, and finally stopped at the white curtain that hung on the windowsill.
"Then you're too idle, you want to find something to do." Xia Beifeng also came closer, and pretended to look at the ward for a while, "Anyway, I didn't see anything." What have you been thinking about all day! It's really too idle, I'll find you something to do when I get back. ”
"No thanks." Ye Tianlang "politely" rejected Xia Beifeng's suggestion, raised his hand and patted away the hand on his shoulder, turned around and asked, "Let's go, you just said that you remembered something?" ”
"Oh, yes." Xia Beifeng seemed to think of something at this time, and continued the previous topic: "I just wanted to ask if you are busy, if you are not busy, can you accompany me to see someone." ”
"It's okay, it's not too busy." Ye Tianlang finally glanced at the curtain on the windowsill suspiciously, then slowly closed the door of the ward and asked, "Who are you going to see?" ”
"I'd like to see the taxi driver the night before and I'd like to ask him something." Xia Beifeng smiled at Ye Tianlang, "It's downstairs, okay?" ”
Ye Tianlang nodded, raised his legs and walked forward, raised his chin at Xia Beifeng when he passed by him, and shouted as a matter of course: "Let's go." ”
Xia Beifeng slowly leaned against the wall and followed the footsteps of the man in front of him.
How is there always a subtle, commanded feeling?
He thought depressedly, and finally couldn't help but glance back at the ward where he had been staying for two days.
Through the small glass window, you can vaguely see a girl in school uniform behind the curtain with her head down, her mouth constantly moving, and she doesn't know what to mutter.
I can't see anything, how can I feel so keen.
Xia Beifeng looked at Ye Tianlang, who was already standing in front of the elevator, and sighed.
Damn, this kid isn't going to be a sperm?
A breeze suddenly blew in the empty hospital room.
Behind the curtains that were stirred up by the breeze, a girl's aggrieved self-talk came out.
"I want to go to a comic con too!"
