Chapter 18: Confusion in the Night

"Doctor, doctor, how is my dad doing? Is it dangerous?"

At seven o'clock in the evening, in front of the ward on the 5th floor of the Third People's Hospital, as soon as the doctor came out, a middle-aged man in a suit greeted him.

He is Uncle Meng's son, Meng Xuecheng.

Before, Chen Mu brought Uncle Meng to the hospital, because there was no money, the hospital did not give a physical examination, Uncle Meng himself had money but put it in the hotel, so he had no choice but called Meng Xuecheng.

"It's fine. A little minor injury. ”

The young doctor wearing glasses handed over the physical examination report to Meng Xuecheng: "But the elderly, minor injuries cannot be ignored, first hospitalized for observation for two days, and then take back to recuperate, there is no big problem." ”

"Oh oh, good doctor, thank you. ”

The doctor left, Uncle Meng was also sent back to the ward, and Chen Mu stopped Meng Xuecheng, who was just about to enter, "Mr. Meng." ”

Meng Xuecheng was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Chen Mu wanting to speak, he stopped: "Wait a minute." ”

Turned his head and walked into the ward, greeted Uncle Meng, and then came out: "What else do you have to do?"

The tone is not very polite.

Meng Xuecheng, who is in his forties this year, is the owner of a foreign trade company, and was in a meeting in the company when he received Chen Mu's call, and when he heard that his father had been beaten and put in the hospital, he immediately rushed over.

I thought it was an accident, but who knew that it was actually the newly recruited waiter who caused the trouble, and on the first day of work, he provoked the young people outside, which caused his father to be severely beaten, plus the company meeting was interrupted, Meng Xuecheng couldn't give Chen Mu a good face.

Chen Mu didn't say anything, and hesitated: "This ...... I do have something to tell you, but you have to be mentally prepared, otherwise you ......"

"Mentally prepared?"

When Meng Xuecheng saw Chen Mu's appearance, his heart suddenly jumped, don't have something big.

After closing the door, he asked, "Tell me, what's the matter?" It's better not to have bad news about my dad, or I won't be able to spare you." ”

The business sea has been up and down for many years, and Meng Xuecheng is not a good character, and his expression is slightly cold.

Chen Mu was suddenly a little unhappy, this kind of disgusting and threatening eyes, am I a sinner?

It is true that Uncle Meng was beaten because of him, but the crime was committed by those thugs, what does it have to do with him? If it weren't for the fact that Uncle Meng was lying in pain, he would have turned his face on the spot.

"It's true that it has something to do with your dad, but it has nothing to do with me. ”

So he said coldly and walked to the elevator room: "Come with me." ”

Meng Xuecheng was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this kid to dare to show him a face, but he still followed.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on. ”

Walking into the elevator room, Meng Xuecheng asked.

Chen Mu didn't think much about it, and went straight to the point: "Your father has Alzheimer's, don't open the store, take Uncle Meng back and raise it." ”

Meng Xuecheng was stunned for a moment: "What are you talking about? Alzheimer's disease......? How is this possible? My dad is only sixty-three, how could heβ€”"

He stared at Chen Mu with a look of astonishment, even a little panicked.

It can be seen that he still cares about Uncle Meng very much.

"Listen to me first. ”

Chen Mu also calmed down at this time, it was related to the second half of Uncle Meng's life, and he had to explain things clearly: "I'm not sure about the specific situation, but I checked it on the Internet, and Uncle Meng's situation is very consistent with the initial symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, and it was ...... yesterday."

He put too much salt in Uncle Meng's cooking, and went to the kitchen in the middle of the night to verify, but every time he forgot to put salt on his own, he said it again.

Finally, he said: "Of course, it is also possible that there is temporary forgetfulness, because this situation did not appear today, Mr. Meng, you had better ask the doctor to consult carefully, that hotel ...... Or don't open it again. ”

After Meng Xuecheng heard this, his brain exploded with a "boom".

Temporary forgetfulness...... Temporary forgetfulness will get up in the middle of the night to go to the kitchen to cook? The lights outside are not turned on, like a ghost, and they talk to themselves, forgetting that they have put salt in them?

Without the doctor's confirmation, he was already convinced that his father had Alzheimer's.

"I'll look it up...... That's impossible...... My dad is only sixty-three years old, how could he ......"

Holding on to the only glimmer of hope, he took out his mobile phone to check the information on Alzheimer's disease, and sure enough, the symptoms on it were very consistent with Chen Mu's description.

And the most important thing is that before the age of 65, you may also suffer from this disease, called Alzheimer's disease......

After reading this information, Meng Xuecheng didn't speak again, didn't even look at Chen Mu, grabbed his mobile phone and turned around and ran, obviously going to find a doctor.

Chen Mu had mixed feelings in his heart, glanced at the corridor outside, and finally took the elevator silently and left.

......

"The world is so big, is there no place for me to stand?"

A few minutes later, Chen Mu appeared in front of the gate of the Third People's Hospital.

At this time, it was already more than seven o'clock in the evening, late summer and early autumn, the night breeze was slightly cool, there was no starlight in the sky, only a light moon was covered by dark clouds.

Chen Mu stood on the side of the street, looking at the traffic shuttling all over the street, and was a little distracted for a while.

He understood that after such a thing, it would be impossible for him to stay in Uncle Meng's hotel again.

Let's not talk about Uncle Meng's physical problems, even Meng Xuecheng can't agree to keep him.

Add to that his own guilt, and the thugs who might come back, and there's no way he's going to stay in the store anyway.

Looking at those novels, the protagonist has an adventure, and he pretends to be slapped in the face every minute and ascends to heaven in a straight line, but when it is his turn, he knows that this society is not so easy to break through.

What if you can fight, if you win, you have to affect others.

Now that he has dropped out of school and lost his job, he doesn't know where to go.

Standing quietly on the side of the street for a while, Chen Mu didn't want to go back for the time being, so he strolled along the street in front of the hospital.

It is close to the central area of Xinghai City, full of high-rise buildings, neon flashing, and cars like flowing water.

Chen Mu walked in it, feeling extremely small.

He originally thought that although he was a rural child, he was admitted to a good school, and he could mix well in school, not to mention how handsome he was, he was ugly, and he had two skills, basketball and cooking, no matter how he looked at it, he was a little capable.

But reality proved that he still had nothing.

What is the second book, go out and pick up a brick and smash it can be a lot.

If you are handsome, someone will sell your body, let alone not be handsome.

Playing Basketball...... When you were a student, there would be girls who liked you, not to mention playing ball, just playing games, fighting - if you can do something better than others, there will be people who like you and appreciate you.

But out of society, what are you if you don't have money?

It's not that if you don't have money, you should be looked down upon, but if you don't have money, you will have a hard time.

No one wants to live a hard life, and naturally no one wants to mix together.

People go to high places, water flows to low places, and he now somewhat understands his ex-girlfriend's choice.

But understanding does not mean agreeing, break up when you break up, say it well, don't split your legs, and it's not who has to be whom.

It's just that now it seems like it's a foregone conclusion......

After thinking silently for a while, Chen Mu shook his head gloomily, he still has to become stronger, only with enough ability can he realize his dream.

But the reality is that he hasn't finished his major now, so where does he have the ability? But the strength is ......

"That's right, strength!"

Chen Mu's eyes lit up, and he just caught a glimpse of a seafood restaurant on the side of the road, he obviously had some strength beyond ordinary people, and he could also make aquatic creatures evolve, why not think about it from this aspect?

Before, he only thought about trying the ability of Kunpeng's aura first, but now it seems that if he still tries something, he will be reckless and finished.

Isn't it 900 aura away from the second layer?

Anyway, if you can transform, eat in the sea and water in the sea, what house do you want to live in?

Chen Mu nodded secretly, he was used to being a human perspective, but he forgot that he could still become a fish now.

Isn't it normal for people to live in the sea of people and fish to live in the sea?

And there are infinite treasures in the sea, as long as you can find some casually, you can make a lot of money immediately.

At that time, my sister's illness will be settled, and I don't have to send anyone under the fence anymore.

"It's decided, go to that beach first!"

Chen Mu's eyes froze, and he stopped a taxi: "Master, go to No. 98 Binhai Road." ”

The driver was stunned for a moment: "No. 98 Binhai Road? Isn't that the Bay of Death?

"You don't care, send me quickly, I have something urgent, and the fare will be doubled." ”

The driver immediately refused to persuade him, and the car disappeared into the night with a "woo".
