Chapter 376: Missing Parts
After waiting for about thirty minutes, Xie Xiaoya was never seen.
The old lady in the next hospital bed leaned over and took the key to open the bedside cabinet.
She was humming and chirping, and her hands and feet were very difficult.
Zhu Xiaohua smiled, took the old lady's key, and said, "I'll help you open it." ”
He unscrewed the drawer, and the old lady looked for medicine in the drawer. Suddenly, something familiar came into view.
A silver cylindrical button rolled out along the sloping drawer. This button is very similar to the one in his pocket.
Zhu Xiaohua reached out and took it out and asked the old lady, "Is this thing yours?" ”
The old lady glanced blankly and shook her head: "It's not mine, I don't know whose stuff, how is it in my drawer?" ”
The old lady saw that it was a discarded part, and she didn't take it seriously, "It's probably someone who threw away the things you don't want." ”
The more Zhu Xiaohua looked at it, the more he felt that this thing was exactly the same as the one he had removed from the minicomputer.
He reached into his pocket, and the shutter button in his pocket was missing.
Zhu Xiaohua suddenly had a question, this button can't be my own, right?
The shutter button in the pocket is missing, and it's here again, which is weird.
At this time, the little girl on the hospital bed at the door spoke. The little girl said, "This silver button should be your sister's in bed." Yesterday, Grandma Tian went out in a wheelchair, I was sleeping, I was not completely asleep at that time, I was in a daze, and I saw Sister Xiaoya take out something and stuff it through the gap in the drawer.
"Unexpectedly, this drawer turned out to be Grandma Tian's."
The little girl's name is Xiaoyu, eight or nine years old, with a childish tone and a childlike voice.
Zhu Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, and said that the child's words were unscrupulous, and he believed that what this little girl said might be true.
However, why does Xie Xiaoya have her own button?
Zhu Xiaohua wanted to see if there was anything else in the drawer, so he opened the drawer wider.
Xiaoyu continued: "Sister Xiaoya also stuffed several things into it. Unexpectedly, she stuffed it into Grandma Tian's drawer. ”
Zhu Xiaohua soon found several other metal parts inside.
These parts were dismantled from small machines at the time.
He pinched out all the parts, took out a cigarette case, took out all the cigarettes inside, and put the parts inside.
Zhu Xiaohua explained: "Since it is Sister Xiaoya's, then I will keep it for her first." ”
The old lady had no objection, she reached out and touched the gap in one side of the drawer, and said, "It seems that I must close this hole, lest anyone stuff my drawer again." ”
Zhu Xiaohua struggled to remember when the parts were lost, but he couldn't remember the exact date.
He's busy socializing these days, so he puts this matter behind him. All in all, the shutter button has been missing for at least three or four days.
But this part is in his pocket so well, why was it taken by Xie Xiaoya?
He remembered that Xie Xiaoya had often appeared at the memorial service in the past two days.
She had her hands strapped, put on a cast, and on two occasions helped herself with her coat. Most of the time the parts were taken away at that time.
This Xie Xiaoya.
Zhu Xiaohua shook her head, she knew that these parts were very important to her, why did she take them?
Is this thing fun?
Zhu Xiaohua decided to wait for her to come back and ask her face to face.
Grandma Tian, who was in the next hospital bed, took out two pills from the drawer, swallowed them with boiled water, and then slowly lay back on the hospital bed.
Grandma Tian said: "You are not her relative, there was also a young man who came to visit Xiaoya last time, and the relationship between the two seems to be very close." ”
Zhu Xiaohua was stunned.
Grandma Tian continued to explain: "The young man is so tall, and he looks very stylish with his back combed in a suit and leather shoes. ”
Zhu Xiaohua had a bad premonition and asked, "What's the name of this young man, maybe I know him." ”
Grandma Tian said, "What kind of rain does it seem to be called?" ”
Xiaoyu from the next hospital bed said, "Grandma, it's me who calls the rain." That person is called Mr. He. ”
Grandma Tian seemed to suddenly remember, and said, "Yes, everyone will call him Mr. He for a while, and then call him Zhengyu, it's quite chaotic anyway." ”
Zhu Xiaohua did not speak again.
He guessed that this person was most likely He Zhenyu.
Xie Xiaoya went to visit Professor Shao that day, and swore that she would never believe He Zhenyu again in the future, but she didn't expect it to get better so soon.
Zhu Xiaohua took out the parts in the cigarette case, took a few of them, broke the two rectangular parts, and finally stuffed them into Xie Xiaoya's drawer above.
Zhu Xiaohua said to the old lady: "I put these bits and pieces in as they are." This is her drawer, right? ”
The old lady nodded.
She wondered a little, this kind of broken iron and iron filings, just throw it away, why put it back as it is.
After Zhu Xiaohua put the parts away, he chatted with the old lady and Xiaoyu for a while. It wasn't until it was nearly lunchtime that Xie Xiaoya was late.
Xie Xiaoya jumped upstairs and looked very happy.
She entered the door and saw Zhu Xiaohua, hesitated for a moment before entering the door.
"Brother Zhu, why are you here, the professor's business is over?"
Zhu Xiaohua nodded: "I'm done." I'm here today to help you go through the discharge procedures. ”
"Leaving so soon?" Xie Xiaoya said as her gaze couldn't help but fall on Grandma Tian's drawer. The drawer was ajar, and the parts inside were missing.
Zhu Xiaohua said: "I'll go to the toilet, and you tidy up." We were discharged immediately. ”
Zhu Xiaohua made an excuse to leave.
As soon as he arrived in the corridor, he heard Grandma Tian's voice: "Your few pieces of broken iron have been put in the upper drawer." ”
This was followed by the sound of drawers being pulled.
Zhu Xiaohua hurriedly went to the toilet, and in less than a minute, he quickly returned to the ward. He needed to figure out how to deal with what had just happened.
He expected that the minute he went to the toilet, Grandma Tian and the others must have told Xie Xiaoya about the parts. I've got to figure out a way to get it back.
Without waiting for Xie Xiaoya to speak, Zhu Xiaohua said first: "Why do I look familiar with your iron pieces?" ”
Xie Xiaoya was nervous, and she didn't know how to tell the difference. Zhu Xiaohua then asked and answered: "It's also in the wrong place, Grandma Tian and I painted the box you put on it." ”
Zhu Xiaohua deliberately said "Grandma Tian and me", just to make her believe that the parts were actually found by Grandma Tian. It's also what Grandma Tian wants to put on the top grid.
Xie Xiaoya was a thief with a weak heart, and her face was flushed.
At this point, a nurse came in to make rounds.
Zhu Xiaohua took the opportunity to say to the nurse: "Bed No. 6 is discharged from the hospital. ”
No matter what Xie Xiaoya thought, he urged Xie Xiaoya to be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible. I didn't seem to care at all about the iron parts.
Xie Xiaoya couldn't hide something in her heart, and her nervous expression was clear at a glance.
After following Zhu Xiaohua to the window to complete the formalities in a daze, she remembered that she still had something to do.
