Chapter XIII: Psychiatric Hospitals

On the outskirts of the city, in the midst of a grove of trees surrounded by mountains and rivers, stand several small brown buildings of varying heights, in which a group of special patients live. Looking at it coldly, these people can speak, laugh and walk, and they are no different from normal people. But if you look closely, you can see that there are many differences. Some of them have stagnant eyes, whether they are sitting or standing or walking, their eyes are always fixed on a certain place, and their eyes reflect a suffocating cold light; Some of them are like a river, endlessly venting trivial matters about marriage, family, work, and news anecdotes from all over the world; Some of them have trouble sleeping, their expressions are manic, and they seem to be full of anger and hatred, which will erupt at any moment; Some cry, some laugh, some stand motionless, and some run endlessly. In short, they are all patients of the H City Psychiatric Hospital and are receiving special care and treatment.

It's the middle of winter, and the cold snap from the north is mixed with intermittent snowflakes, and knives pierce passers-by in the cheeks, ears and necks. This kind of weather is still outside splitting legs, somersaulting, and shouting, which is probably only seen in psychiatric hospitals. Even in a psychiatric hospital, there is only one such person, and he is Liang Tianyu. Liang Tianyu was wearing a blue and white dirty tight cotton suit, with a bare head, rolling around on the snow-covered grass. His body, which seems to be tireless and full of vitality, is a sight to behold in a psychiatric hospital every day. The doctors, nurses and administrators of the hospital, as well as relatives who visited the patients at the hospital, lamented that the 17-year-old had such a severe form of neurophrenia.

Liang Tianyu, who had been tossing for a short day, had no strength at night, so he fell asleep in the ward. Due to the severity of his illness and moodiness, no one wanted to be near him; As he is a repeat offender and requires special care, the ward is set up separately from the rest of the patient's accommodation in a buffer zone. The doctor in charge of treating Liang Tianyu is surnamed Liu, named Liu Yiqiong, and can be called the doctor with the deepest qualifications, the highest medical skills, and the best popularity in the psychiatric hospital. Liu Yiqiong's husband is an officer, and Liu Yiqiong was qualified to live a military career with her husband, but she was unwilling to give up her old profession and worked in a psychiatric hospital for more than 20 years. Five years ago, my husband transferred from the army and became the warden of Dongling Prison, although the job position and position are not satisfactory, but after all, the husband and wife can live in the same city, and they can avoid a lot of hardships, which is also acceptable. For Liang Tianyu, being able to get Liu Yiqiong's treatment is simply a gift from God.

After dinner, Liu Yiqiong came to Liang Tianyu's ward with a military coat. This is a special ward, which was temporarily converted from an office. At this time, Liang Tianyu was wearing a single suit and was moving his body on the bed. Doing 200 push-ups before going to bed is a lesson he can't beat.

"One hundred and ninety-three, one hundred and ninety-four, one hundred - Sister Liu!" Just as I was about to finish my homework, I suddenly found that Dr. Liu Yiqiong was here.

"One hundred and ninety-five - don't stop," Liu Yiqiong waved her hand, motioning for Liang Tianyu to continue doing, "One hundred and ninety-six, one hundred and ninety-seven, one hundred and ninety-eight, one hundred and ninety-nine, two hundred!" ”

Liang Tianyu jumped out of bed and looked at Liu Yiqiong breathlessly, "Big sister, sit down!" "Based on the age relationship between Liang Tianyu and Liu Yiqiong, if you judge it from the prison warden, he should be called aunt; If you look at it from the hospital side, he should be called Auntie. In short, no matter what aspect it is, Liang Tianyu should not call Liu Yiqiong the eldest sister. But he just likes to call the eldest sister, the call is smooth, the call is comfortable, the call is intimate, and the call is warm.

"Tianyu, I brought you an overcoat. The weather is getting colder day by day, so wear more when you go out. ”

"This is the prison warden's overcoat?" Liang Tianyu blurted out.

"Yes. Lao Zhao was transferred from the army to the prison, his clothes changed from grass green to navy blue, and this military coat was also laid off. Lao Zhao asked me to give it to you, although it is a little old, it is thick and durable, it can be worn and covered, and it can be regarded as a second employment. ”

Liang Tianyu took the military coat, and his heart was warm, "Eldest sister, you and the prison warden are my benefactors, closer than my biological parents." As the saying goes, great grace is not grateful, and one day if I, Liang Tianyu, can mix up my personal appearance, I will definitely do my best to be a son for you and the prison warden. ”

"Child," Liu Yiqiong took Liang Tianyu's hand and sat on the bed with him, "Don't say that, it is the duty and duty of a doctor to save lives and help the wounded." You're exercising every day, which is great, but pay attention to the intensity, take it step by step, and you can't get fat in one bite. ”

"What the eldest sister said is, I'll pay attention."

So far, Liang Tianyu has recuperated in the psychiatric hospital with peace of mind, but he is safe.

The turn of spring and summer is the most charming season of the year in H City. The warm and humid air wafting from the Pacific Ocean moistens the green weeping willows, the red peaches and the golden ginkgo biloba in the streets and alleys, and moistens the warm smiling faces and beautiful hearts of groups of beautiful men and women.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the Phoenix Hotel was brightly lit and crowded. This is a star-rated hotel in H City, which is very popular and often hard to find. In one corner of the lobby, sat a slender middle-aged man. He wore a washed white jacket, dark gray trousers, and a pair of wide-rimmed black glasses on the bridge of his nose in an attempt to hide the deep wrinkles embedded in the corners of his eyes. The sideburns are black and white, and the beard on the lower jaw is pure black and neatly trimmed. On his table was a bottle of beer, a plate of peanuts, and a plate of fried tofu.

"What more do you want sir?" The waiter Shao Xiaoya greeted warmly.

"Don't. Thank you. The middle-aged man shook his head, his voice deep and magnetic.

"You're welcome, please use it slowly."

After Shao Xiaoya exited, she went straight to a room on the second floor, and when she entered the door, she said, "Sister Yang, that person is here again." Today is the fourth day, it's still that time, it's still that table, it's still a bottle of beer, a plate of peanuts, and a plate of fried tofu. ”

Yang Xiaoxue nodded, "Got it, let's get busy." Shao Xiaoya just turned around, and Yang Xiaoxue stopped her again, "That's it, you go to the back kitchen and say something, add a meat dish to that guest, and see what the reaction is." ”

"Okay."

After a short time, Shao Xiaoya sent a plate of spicy chicken to the middle-aged man, "Hello, this is a dish given by our boss, please taste it." ”

As soon as the words fell, Huo Ran, a long-haired young man in a strange dress next to him, stood up, pointed at Shao Xiaoya's nose and said, "I said that your boss's head was in the water, or did he let the donkey kick it?" This uncle occupies a table exclusively, and only asks for a bottle of beer and two side dishes, which costs less than 20 yuan in total, and you will give more than 50 yuan as soon as you make a move, which is really generous. The cost of the six of us is more than 300 yuan, so why didn't we give it away? Do dogs look down on people? ”

Shao Xiaoya's face turned red, and she said tremblingly, "Mr. misunderstood." Our boss met the gentleman and it was common for him to give a dish. ”

The long-haired young man was speechless for a while, and a bald fat man at the same table took over the conversation, and said in a long voice, "That-since your boss knows each other, why don't you invite him to the private room upstairs?" Either we will receive seven plates and eight bowls at home to be offered, and we will not be out of sight and out of mind. Since we're dining in the lobby, let's stop playing those sour tricks, we don't look comfortable......"

The bald fat man was reluctant to give up, but when he saw the middle-aged man bring the spicy chicken, he said, "Since you are interested in this dish, you can use it well." ”

The bald fat man generously took the spicy chicken, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and said, "It tastes good—" and suddenly raised the plate high, smashed it hard, and shouted, "Do you want to eat!" ”
