Chapter 47: Yuan Xiaobai
It was an old bungalow, with a yard and a wall, and the wall was crawling with vines and small white flowers, one after the other. A pair of iron doors are painted red, there is an electric button outside the door, and the three-story houses with red bricks and black tiles stand quietly in the center of the city, but it looks extraordinarily quiet.
Called the door, and after a while, someone came out, and when he opened the door, he saw a middle-aged man in a black suit, with gray hair. His clothes were very well-cut, and it was evident that he was a good tailor who had them tailored to his figure. He looked at us, we looked at him, and I read a trace of chaotic emotions in his eyes, although his face was engraved with the traces of the years that had gone through countless storms, calm and calm.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Hello uncle, we are friends of Yuan Xiaobai, may I ask if she lives here?"
The man hesitated for a moment and then asked, "What kind of friend, very faced, I haven't seen it before." ”
The fat man took out a small notebook from his bag, and there was a photo in the middle of the notebook, which was a group photo taken when we broke up from Savage Tun that year, and he said to the man: "We are the educated youth when we went to the countryside to the Northeast together, you see that there is a photo of us." ”
The man took the photo, squinted at it, and then returned it to the fat man: "She told me about you, thanks to your care at that time, but unfortunately Xiaobai was not at home." ”
The fat man embarrassedly took back the photo and said, "Huh? That's unfortunate. ”
The man looked up at his watch and said, "I don't think you know yet, so if you have time, come with me to see her, and if you know that your old friends are here, she will be happier." ”
"Okay, we're free, uncle, who are you?" I asked.
"I'm her father, just wait for me here, I'll arrange the car." The man turned and went into the yard, and I saw that his back seemed to be limping when he walked, and then I realized that there seemed to be something wrong with one of his legs.
After a while, the gate was completely opened, and a black high-end imported bridge car slowly drove out, her father was sitting in the back seat, and I saw that he also had a thermos cup in his hand, and I seemed to smell the aroma of chicken soup.
Where the car drove in, I saw a bustling crowd, many people wearing white coats and masks, and the eye-catching two big words "hospital", I had a little bad premonition in my heart, it shouldn't be Yuan Xiaobai who had an accident.
On the fourth floor, we walked through an iron gate with a doorman's handle, which was the first time I had seen such a facility in a hospital. Yuan Xiaobai's father handed the doorman a note, and I noticed that when we walked in, the door was closed again. Passing through this door, I was shocked by a few big words posted on the corridor: No idlers in the mental illness area!
It was another green iron door, there was a person with an electric baton in his hand to greet Yuan Xiaobai's father warmly, there were two padlocks on the door, and another assistant was needed to help when he opened the door, and when I opened the door, I heard all kinds of crying, laughing and inexplicable sounds.
In ward 414, there was a doctor with glasses waiting at the door, Yuan Xiaobai's father walked to the side and chatted with him, and I saw that the doctor was shaking his head frequently. I looked at the fat man, and his mood must have been as complicated as I was, and everyone understood what it meant. A few minutes later, Yuan Xiaobai's father walked over with his head down, accompanied by the doctor.
The doctor pointed at us and asked, "Mr. Yuan, are these our friends?" ”
Yuan Xiaobai's father nodded and said, "The boss came from afar, and he has helped Xiaobai many times before, Mr. Tang, there should be no problem, right?" ”
The doctor, surnamed Tang, explained to me: "Don't irritate the patient after you go in, don't talk loudly, don't resist if the patient attacks you, I will be next to you, and the patient is afraid of the light, so the light is not turned on inside." ”
There was a layer of iron on the outside of the ward door, and there were also two padlocks, one key in Mr. Tang's hand and the other in the hand of the other nurse, and only two of them could enter if they all opened their keys, and I think the same is true for felons.
As Dr. Tang said, when the door was opened, it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything, and there was only one voice in the room, and that was a low panting, which sounded like a person's throat was being pinched.
"Xiaobai, it's me, Dad, don't be afraid, Dad turn on the lights, okay?"
"Bang", the light in the room is very dim, not much stronger than a candle, and I can barely see the face clearly. There is a ** in the corner of the wall not far away, ** on which a person is tightly wrapped in a sheet and shivering.
That person is Yuan Xiaobai? I could barely believe my eyes, her hair was messy, her head was swaying slightly from side to side, her hands were crossed over and she was holding herself, her whole head buried in her legs.
Yuan Xiaobai's father walked up to her with chicken soup, there was a table, and there was a pair of plastic dishes and chopsticks on the table, he carefully poured the chicken soup into the bowl and whispered to Yuan Xiaobai's side: "Come, be good, open your mouth and take a sip." ”
With a "snap", Yuan Xiaobai waved his arm, and the chicken soup spilled to the ground.
Her hands began to wave around, smashing whatever she grabbed in her hands, pillows, quilts, and shouted at the same time: "Don't feed me Meng Po soup!" Don't come to me! You're a ghost! There you go! Help me! Help me! ”
Yuan Xiaobai's father let his daughter beat and scold, but silently squatted down to clean up the mess.
"I'll leave it to you, feed her." He handed the chicken soup to the nurse and said to me, "You're friends, go try it and see if I can get to know you." ”
The fat man and I never thought that Yuan Xiaobai would become like this, what a good girl she was in the year of separation, but I didn't expect that before the fat man and I walked up to her, she began to laugh and laugh: "Hahaha, you two little ghosts can't take me away, I won't go with you, die of this heart!" ”
I didn't dare to get too far forward, and I asked from an arm's length, "Xiaobai?" I'm Xia Yi, this is a fat man, General Shi! Savage Tun, remember? ”
"Black and white impermanence? Help! Someone! She began to scream again, and after a while, she jumped down from the ** and knelt in front of us and cried: "Please let me go of the two immortals, my father is really pitiful alone, I still have to take care of him, I don't want to die so early, please be merciful." ”
"Xiaobai, take a good look, it's us, I'm fat!"
"Huh? Are you Zhu Bajie? What about Monkey King? Tell Sun Wukong to come out and fight monsters, there are ghosts here. As she spoke, she raised her head and looked around, "Look, look, there's a kid over there, dressed in blue, and he's holding a knife in his hand, and it's bloody." Yes! He's coming up to me, help! She climbed onto the ** like a fly, and then covered herself with the quilt, shivering inside......
Walking out of the ward, Yuan Xiaobai's father's eyes were red, and we followed him to the doctor's office, and the doctor said: "Mr. Yuan, at present, Ling Qianjin's condition can only be to maintain her life, but I am afraid that if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will not last more than a month, and her various physical indicators are declining......"
"Do whatever it takes, at any cost!"
"It's not that we don't want to, it's true, the experts from the Beijing team also came the day before yesterday, and they were all the best doctors in China, but the result was helpless, and we couldn't find the cause of her illness at all. Generally speaking, psychiatric disorders are either neurological lesions or strongly stimulated, but we have discussed both repeatedly and do not belong to them. ”
Yuan Xiaobai's father's face was like ashes, and his fists were clenched tightly......
The doctor continued: "In the afternoon my mentor Karen will come, he gave an international academic lecture in Shanghai yesterday, and he promised me to take the time to come and see Miss Yuan, who is currently the world's leading champion of mental illness, and that may be the last glimmer of hope. ”
"As long as I can save her, I will agree to any conditions."
"I know that Mr. Yuan, you are a patriotic red capitalist and the leader of the Shanghai Federation of Industry and Commerce, and it is my responsibility and obligation to treat the relatives of the pillars of the country like Mr. Yuan. Dr. Karen had already read the information I faxed to her earlier and he would be there in the afternoon. ”
"Okay, I'll wait!"
"We'll wait." The fat man and I said in unison.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the phone rang in the office, and Dr. Tang excitedly shouted, "It's here!" ”
Ten minutes later, in Yuan Xiaobai's ward, the world's authoritative psychiatrist ran out with a bloody face, and he said with an embarrassed face: "Tang, I can't do anything about this patient, let the family prepare for the aftermath......
