Chapter 52: What's Behind You?
(The update is delivered, and it will continue tomorrow.) Thank you also for the support of my brother and my friends who are filled with milk, thank you. )
Central Hospital.
"Ah," the fat man stabbed me with his elbow, and then snorted inside the door.
"What are you doing?"
"You think she's not really crazy, is she?" The fat man asked me.
I shook my head, "I don't know." After that, I thought about it again and said, "Lan doesn't look crazy, does he?" There is a difference between crazy and stupid. I think she's stupid in her current state. After speaking, I found that the fat man blinked his eyes, and didn't seem to understand, so I explained to him: "I just saw something, and I was scared." ”
The fat man let out a thoughtful "oh", then turned his head to look at the nurse sister coming and going in the hallway.
A few of us waited outside the hallway for nearly twenty minutes before the doctor brought Lan out.
"We gave her a reaction test," the doctor said, "and she was only a quarter as fast as a normal person." ”
"How so?" I asked.
The doctor lifted his glasses: "Was she very frightened?" ”
The fat man and I looked at each other and shook our heads. We don't know what happened to Lan after the fat man and I left.
"Doctor," I pulled the doctor aside, "will she always be like this?" ”
The doctor glanced back at Lan: "Generally speaking, people will be like this if they are frightened. It's just that different people take different times to recover. After a pause, the doctor said: "She doesn't need treatment like this, find a quiet environment and pay attention to rest, and it will be fine after a while." With that, the doctor turned around and was about to go back. But I didn't walk a few steps and came back. "You're her boyfriend, right?"
I was stunned for a moment, and nodded a little guiltily.
"Actually, it's the first time I've encountered her in this state." The doctor said.
I don't understand.
"Normal people's pupils dilate when they are frightened, but she doesn't."
"Well, I guess it's been two or three days since she's been like this." I said, "It's time to recover, right?" ”
"It's different," the doctor shook his head, "I just found her pupils when I looked at her pupils" The doctor frowned at this point, and seemed to be unable to find the words to describe it at once, just gesturing his hands. After a few seconds, the doctor gave up and said, "Anyway, her pupils are a little strange - were they like this before?" ”
My heart said I don't know. The doctor looked at me with a puzzled look, and lifted his glasses again: "You better do what I just said, she will recover after a while." ”
"How long will that take?"
"I don't know. But remember, be sure to find a quiet place. Also, don't let her be frightened again. With that, the doctor turned and went back.
When I came out of the hospital, I told the fat man what the doctor had just told me. When it came to the need to find a quiet place for Lan to cultivate, the fat man was also stunned. The fat man scratched his head and thought for a long time: "If you want to say that let the fat man find a place to have fun, that's really a matter of one sentence." But now I'm looking for a quiet place."
I understand when the fat man says that. After all, the fat man is a foreigner, and he can't help with this matter. But I can't help it now, I haven't cleaned up anything else since I came out of the ancestral hall. And according to my uncle's determination to arrest me in those days, I guess my current home will be targeted soon---I have to think about finding a place to live now.
The friend next to me looked at me with a sad face, patted his chest and said he could help me.
I looked at my friend and suddenly it occurred to me that his parents seemed to be teachers in their hometown. So he asked my friend if he wanted us to stay with his parents for a while.
I also know my friend's parents, and I know them well. So he immediately decided to live with the two old men for a while, and then make a decision when Lan recovered.
After deciding on it, we rushed to our friend's hometown without stopping.
My friend's hometown is in the countryside of a county, and it's a long drive away. In addition, the traffic jam on the road took almost a day. We didn't get there until it was almost dark.
Because the two elderly people were not notified in advance, they were already eating when we arrived.
Generally speaking, people in the countryside will have a dog to watch over their homes. When we got out of the car and walked outside the yard, a big yellow dog in the yard suddenly barked at us.
We were startled, and my friend hurriedly drank the big yellow dog to calm him down. Unexpectedly, this big yellow dog didn't even recognize his friends, standing in the yard staring at us with two glowing green eyes, and his mouth let out a low roar of warning.
"Ah Huang?" My friend called out tentatively.
The dog named Ah Huang only wagged his tail slightly when he heard his friend calling him, but that sense of vigilance still did not change.
"Damn, it's been a long time since you've been back, and the dogs don't know you anymore." I asked a friend.
My friend also looked puzzled: "I just came back last week and sent an electric fan to my parents and my parents, isn't it?" ”
My friend's parents were in the house and heard movement outside and came out. When they saw us standing outside the yard, they were stunned for a moment: "Why did you come back?" ”
My friend told me a brief story, and it was then that the two old men noticed me: "Oh, Ah Cheng. It's been a long time since I've played with Arin, come on, come on, come in. As he spoke, he bowed his head to the big yellow dog and said, "Go away." ”
The big yellow dog looked up at his friend's parents and whimpered and ducked behind them.
"Mom, why is Ah Huang so fierce?" My friend asked.
"I don't know, it's fine before eating." So saying, he opened the gate of the courtyard and let us in.
In the countryside, every household will circle a particularly large yard, and usually plant some fruit trees or flowers in the yard, or plant some side vegetables that are often eaten. It's very convenient.
There is a distance of about six or seven meters from the yard to the house. During this period, the big yellow dog named Ah Huang kept staring at me. This makes me particularly curious. I don't think I'm ugly enough that even dogs think I'm a bad person, but the big yellow dog in front of me keeps barking at me, and my friend's parents can't get rid of me.
When we entered the house, the two old men began to cook for us, and our friends began to decorate our rooms.
In rural areas, teaching is a very respectable profession. So my friend's parents also had relatively good financial conditions, and they built a two-story brick house by themselves.
Friends settled us on the second floor, me and the fat man had a room, and Lan was alone.
When I went to bed at night, I told the fat man about the dog that kept barking at me when I first arrived here, and then asked the fat man if I really didn't look like a good person.
The fat man lit a cigarette shirtless, sat at the head of the bed, smoked it to himself, and ignored me. I was lying on the bed looking at him, and a picture of a man sitting at the head of the bed smoking a cigarette came to mind the day after the witch and witch mountain**. If the fat man dares to tell me at this time that he will be responsible for me, then I will pounce on him and strangle him. My heart said.
But the fat man was almost finished smoking a cigarette, and he didn't see him talking. But just when I thought the fat man was going to go to bed after smoking, the fat man turned to look at me and asked, "Don't you think that dog's attention has been on you?" ”
"Behind me?" I asked, "Behind me," I thought back to the way into the yard. What's behind me that keeps a dog on his toes?
The fat man saw that he couldn't figure it out, so he prompted, "Lan is following you." ”
