Chapter 393: Winter Solstice (6)

The taxi was very fast, and before Xu Hong could figure out what had happened before, he changed his mind, and the car had already arrived at the gate of the Third Courtyard.

Xu Hongcai was covered with cold sweat, got out of the car in a daze, and was kindly supported by the hospital security guards.

"What are you feeling unwell?" The security guard asked as he looked down at Xu Hongcai's feet.

The problem with this kind of walking and standing is not the legs or the feet.

"Foot, foot hit the ......" Xu Hongcai replied in a trance, looking up at the building of the Third Hospital, only to feel that the winter sun was not warm at all, and there was a biting coldness.

"Then I'll help you to the emergency room. Do you have a health insurance card? The security guard dragged Xu Hongcai's arm and wanted to help with the suitcase.

Xu Hongcai didn't move.

His throat was dry and he wanted to refuse, but his body's center of gravity moved slightly, and he instinctively refused to be pulled by the security guard, and his foot hurt sharply and he almost fell to the ground.

"Otherwise, you wait here, I'll push you in a wheelchair." Seeing Xu Hongcai like this, the security guard gradually relaxed his strength to support him. After completely letting go of his hand, he looked at it for another two seconds to make sure that Xu Hong would not fall, so he greeted his colleague and hurriedly ran to the hospital.

Another security guard was also very enthusiastic and asked, "Okay? Can you come to the side? Take a seat in the flower bed over here. ”

Xu Hongcai shook his head.

He still wanted to run away, to get away from here, but the pain in his feet prevented him from moving.

This reminded Xu Hongcai of the experimental class in high school, where the teacher asked them to dissect frogs, cut the frog's head open, and nail it to the experimental table to do various experiments. He is now like a frog, nailed to the gate of the Third Courtyard.

"I, I'm ......" Xu Hongcai turned his head and looked at the road.

The entrance of the hospital is always full of traffic and pedestrians. The entrance of the Third Courtyard is no exception. In the early years, the management of the hospital was chaotic, and patients and their families would always crowd in front of the hospital gate, and traffic jams were common. In recent years, the hospital and the traffic police have been closely connected, and the hospital has also reorganized the road layout, separating the entry and exit channels for people and vehicles, and relieving the traffic pressure. Although there are still a lot of cars now, there is no such thing as blocking the road for dozens of minutes that cannot be solved.

The place where Xu Hongcai is now standing is the entrance of the hospital for people to walk, and some vehicles stop here for a short time, and after putting people down, they will also drive away immediately.

Xu Hongcai saw the taxi driving from the road, and also saw the taxi that happened to stop on the side of the road and let the passengers down.

He wanted to stop him.

"What do you want? Drink? The security guard called Xu Hongcai.

Xu Hongcai's words were interrupted.

The taxi, like the car Xu Hongcai was in when he came, dropped people down and drove away immediately.

"I ...... Or go to other hospitals......" Xu Hongcai looked at the security guard and said with difficulty.

"Huh? Is this an old problem for you? The security guard asked, "Or where is there a doctor you know?" We are a tertiary hospital here, and the medical insurance is reimbursed, and there are also reimbursements from other places. Where are you from? ”

"No, that's not the problem." Xu Hongcai said anxiously.

"We have a good orthopedic department here, internal medicine is the most famous, but orthopedics is not bad. The best orthopedic department here in Yaocheng is a hospital, and that one is far away. You're in so much pain, you don't necessarily make it there. Now in the morning rush hour, it takes two hours to take a taxi. The security guard persuaded again, "It's not me who pulls guests, and the hospital doesn't need to pull guests, even if you're like this, let's take a look." If you don't agree, the doctor won't do the surgery. Prescribe some painkillers and go to other hospitals. ”

"Yes, young man, it hurts so much, don't be a big problem. Let's take a film here first, and then if you want to be hospitalized, you can think about it. The old man who passed by interjected and persuaded, and greeted the security guard, obviously an old patient who often ran to the third hospital.

"I'm not, this ......" Xu Hongcai didn't know how to explain.

The old man is much stronger than the security guard, "The film can be used anywhere." You go to other hospitals, they want you to shoot again, you just don't listen to them. ”

Xu Hongcai is worried about this kind of problem.

"Here comes the wheelchair." The security guard who borrowed the wheelchair returned.

Xu Hongcai was placed in a wheelchair by these three enthusiastic people.

He was a big man, he shouldn't have been so easily manipulated, but after going through those things, his situation was really bad. Not only was the pain in his feet and his psychological fear, but his mental condition was also very bad, and the double fatigue made it difficult for him to have a heart of confrontation with anything.

Those few words at the door of the hospital were already Xu Hongcai's best efforts.

No, it should be said that he rushed to the rental house, which was the best effort he had made in this time. After that run, he had no strength to resist.

The security guard pushed the wheelchair and entered the hospital with the old man.

When I arrived at the hospital building, the old man went to hang up the outpatient clinic and waved goodbye. Before leaving, the old man did not forget to tell Xu Hongcai not to hide from the doctor.

"I've got you in the emergency room." The security guard helped with the formalities, "You can wait and pay for the medical expenses." You go to the doctor first. He beckoned to the nurse's desk, and the little nurse nodded, "There is a nurse watching, if you want to return the wheelchair later, just hand it over to the nurse's desk." ”

Xu Hongcai didn't even have the strength to say thank you.

The security guard didn't expect to be thanked, so he just took care of the nurse and left the hospital building.

Xu Hongcai sat in a wheelchair like a sculpture, and he didn't dare to raise his head for fear of seeing something.

When he looked up that day, he saw the face of the old woman outside the window, but he almost scared half of his life, and the old man and bloodstains he saw afterwards made him even more palpitating. Hearing the ghost crying wolf last night also made his ears hurt. The noisy environment of the hospital seemed to be a variation of that sound, and his heartbeat became disorganized.

“…… Mr! Mr! ”

Xu Hongcai was startled, subconsciously raised his head, and saw the young doctor's face.

"Are you conscious? Does it hurt? It's this foot, isn't it? The young doctor asked a lot of questions, and gently touched Xu Hongcai's injured foot.

Xu Hong gasped in pain, those chaotic thoughts were finally dispelled, and all that was left in his heart was pain.

"Let's take a look at it first. You can leave your luggage at the nurse's desk. The young doctor immediately made a decision and made an order.

The nurse called the nurse and, without saying anything, pushed the wheelchair to the imaging department.

Xu Hongcai still didn't have time to refuse, like a puppet, he was pushed to the imaging department, lifted to the device, X-rayed, and sent for other examinations, and finally his feet were temporarily fixed, and he was sent back to the emergency hall to stay here and wait.

He had regained some clarity of his brain, and this time it finally came into play.

Thinking of the girl who looked like a college student, Xu Hongcai's heart tightened.

Yin Shikang...... Her name is Yin Shikang.

Over here......

Xu Hongcai subconsciously looked around.

The emergency hall was noisy, and there was a subtle chaos, even if there was something hidden in this chaos, Xu Hong couldn't find it.

The ambulance stopped at the emergency gate, and several doctors and nurses rushed out in a hurry, and rushed in with the hospital bed.

Xu Hongcai saw the injured man covered in blood. I don't know what happened to the other party or what injuries he suffered, just seeing the blood, Xu Hongcai thought of what happened in the community last night.

He jerked his head away from the bloody scene.

Among the people in the emergency hall, some turned their heads like Xu Hongcai, and some looked curiously. Both groups quickly returned to normal, as the injured person had been taken to the operating room and was nowhere to be seen.

Xu Hongcai didn't turn around for a long time.

His stomach was tumbling upside down, but it was so empty that he couldn't vomit anything if he wanted to.

"You don't matter, do you?" Someone next to him leaned sideways and asked again.

Xu Hongcai shook his head.

"Do you want to drink water? I just bought mineral water, I haven't opened it. The man relaxed and handed the mineral water to Xu Hongcai, "You came to see the doctor alone?" Is there no one to accompany you? ”

Xu Hongcai's stomach was indeed uncomfortable. He remembered that he hadn't eaten or drunk much in the past few days, and now not only did his throat and hair dry, but his lips were also chapped. He licked his lips, thanked the other party, and took the mineral water.

"It's also miserable. There's no one in the house? Married, right? Why didn't my wife come? ”

"Why do you ask so much?"

"I didn't happen to run into it, so I care. What's your number? ”

Xu Hongcai poured half a bottle of water down, and then he felt better and had the strength to speak.

"I'm here on a business trip, and my wife is in my hometown."

"Oh, it's hard to come on a business trip alone. There's no one in the unit? I should have asked a colleague to help. Haven't you registered yet? Do you want me to help you? ”

"No, I don't. It's already hung up and filmed. Xu Hong only remembered to look at the other party at this time.

The person who spoke was a middle-aged man with a kind face. The middle-aged woman sitting next to him frowned. There was a little girl standing behind the two, younger than the one I saw in the community, probably a high school student, or maybe a junior high school student.

"It's good to have filmed. But some of them have to wait, at least an hour. The middle-aged man said, "What do you do?" Traveling a lot? ”

"Well, I ......" Xu Hongcai and the little girl made eye contact, and the other party's eyes widened slightly, "I do foreign trade, and the company makes equipment." ”

"Oh, it's awesome to sell equipment abroad. There are a lot of things in our country that can be made by ourselves now......" The middle-aged man seemed to come to talk.

Xu Hongcai looked at the middle-aged man, "Hmm." I used to be an import agent, and now I am exporting. ”

"Really? What kind of equipment are you doing? "The middle-aged man was in high spirits.

"People are uncomfortable, you talk so much."

The middle-aged man looked back at his wife, "This is a traumatic injury, and the trauma is just to distract himself." The ancients also scraped bones to cure poison, and Guan Gong was playing chess while treating external injuries. The middle-aged man said, "You have a stomachache, it's different." He turned his head to Xu Hongcai and introduced, "She eats popsicles in the winter, and the few remaining popsicles in the summer are reluctant to throw away, and she refuses to come to the hospital after pulling all night......"

"You're done...... the middle-aged woman wanted to say something, but she held her stomach and rushed to the toilet.

"I don't know how many times it is. It's useless to eat intestinal inflammation. The middle-aged man shook his head, "I just don't listen." I went to the emergency room twice last year. Don't eat lessons, gluttonous. I'm not young anymore, and my intestines have been operated on before, and it's still like this. When the middle-aged man said this, he turned around, looked around, and lowered his voice to Xu Hongcai, "I'll tell you, if you want your bones to be seriously injured, don't look here." Go to a hospital. The internal medicine department of the third hospital is good, and it is good to do some surgery in the stomach, but the orthopedic department is not good. The comminuted fracture kind still goes to the hospital. I'm not a medical trust, or I have a colleague who also has a fracture, and I didn't look good here, so I went to the first hospital to re-operate. The orthopedic department of the first hospital is well-known throughout the country. Not here. ”

Xu Hongcai also wanted to go to other hospitals.

He smiled reluctantly, "I'm in too much pain to bear it." ”

"Then you prescribe some painkillers and go to another hospital." The middle-aged man said casually, "Hey, I'm just a suggestion." How to look at it is still up to you. It's better to have a small injury, and it's good to be able to look at it here. ”

"yes." Xu Hongcai nodded.

Saying this, he recovered a lot. Holding the mineral water bottle, Xu Hongcai took out his mobile phone, "I'll transfer the money to you." ”

"It's just two dollars, don't bother." The middle-aged man waved his hand, "Everyone is a doctor and should take care of each other." ”

Xu Hongcai finally smiled, "Hmm." I didn't even ask, what do you do? ”

"I'm just a warehouse watcher." The middle-aged man smiled, "It's not as tech-savvy as you guys." ”

"I'm just selling, running business, and I don't know any technology."

The two chatted casually, incompatible with the bitter patients and their families around them.

There is always an end to the topic.

The middle-aged woman has not yet returned from the toilet.

Xu Hongcai was concerned, and the middle-aged man was also a little uneasy.

"I'll go take a look. ...... seats here."

"You put your bag here, I'll look after it for you." Xu Hongcai said.

When the middle-aged man walked away, Xu Hong remembered the little girl.

He turned his head and saw that the little girl was still standing where she was.

Xu Hongcai was chatting with the middle-aged man just now, and the little girl was also Wenwen standing quietly behind without saying a word. The middle-aged woman went to the toilet, and she didn't accompany her.

Xu Hongcai said: "Aren't you sitting?" Your parents may not ...... it for a while."

Halfway through his sentence, he noticed that part of the little girl's body overlapped the back of the seat.

Just now the middle-aged man was sitting there blocking it, Xu Hongcai only thought that the father and daughter were close, and the little girl was standing against the middle-aged man, and then he discovered this strange sense of distance.

It should be said that it is precisely because of this sense of distance that Xu Hong will regard this little girl as the daughter of a middle-aged man.

Xu Hongcai's body suddenly froze.

The pain that I had briefly forgotten just now returned.

The little girl stared at Xu Hongcai and did not look away.

Xu Hongcai opened his mouth and couldn't make a sound.

His hand was holding the handrail of the wheelchair, and the next second, he reacted and wanted to move the wheelchair a little awkwardly. As a person who used a wheelchair for the first time, Xu Hongcai groped for a long time, and he didn't know how to make the wheelchair move.

He was desperate to get up, but the pain in his foot kept him from moving.

"Hey, you reported it." The caregiver happened to come at this time.

Xu Hong felt like he was grasping at a life-saving straw.

The middle-aged man also came back with his wife.

The two sides collided together.

Xu Hongcai's body was blocked, he didn't hear what the middle-aged man said, he only felt that the wheelchair moved.

It's OK to go. Hurry up.

Xu Hongcai shouted in his heart, but he didn't dare to look up and look at the little girl again.

The wheelchair twisted in place a few times before the nurse turned the wheelchair in the direction and avoided the middle-aged man.

After the middle-aged man helped his wife sit down, he looked at Xu Hongcai strangely.

"He didn't react when I talked to him just now, didn't it hurt badly again?"

"You care so much about other people." His wife said weakly, "Go buy me a bottle of water." Really, give water to someone else ......."

"I say, be careful." Suddenly a voice came from behind the two of them.

The two turned back together.

"That person just now, talking into the air, should be your daughter." The patient's family member sitting in the back said seriously.

The middle-aged man was dumbfounded.

"He's probably not only injured in his feet, but also has a brain problem."

The middle-aged woman immediately said, "Let you talk to others." Do you know him? Just talk to you. ”

"It's not good...... middle-aged man was aggrieved.

"It's too late. You don't know that there was a psychopath here in the Third Hospital who ran out to kill people some time ago. The middle-aged woman said urgently.

"And that kind of thing?" The middle-aged man was surprised.

"yes, it's all in the news." The patient's family at the back answered.

"So...... Go buy me water, and stop talking to strangers. The middle-aged woman just said a few words with a lot of energy, and then withered again.

"Maybe there's something." Another patient joined the conversation, "What about the winter solstice yesterday." It's not good to talk about it......"

"Mom, what year is it, you still say this kind of feudal superstition."

"It's something that has been handed down from our ancestors."

"Alright, alright. The ancestor also said to drink Fu Shui, don't you still come to the hospital to see a doctor? ”

"That's different."

The topic was forcibly ended.

The middle-aged man was stunned and took his mobile phone to find the vending machine, but he still remembered something about Xu Hongcai, and glanced at the place where Xu Hongcai left.

Naturally, he couldn't see Xu Hongcai anymore.
