Rise

I rushed all the way from my home to Pudong Airport, took off and arrived in London after a full 12-hour flight over thousands of miles, and then I had to go to the train station to take a full two-hour train to Manchester City. The journey was exhausting. However, at this time, Su Xue didn't have time to think about these things at all. After calling No. 5, she hurriedly asked the question she was most concerned about:

"On your side……"

"how is it now?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and the voice of No. 5 came again after a long while:

"It's better than it was before."

Just hearing this sentence, Su Xue breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good..."

Don't say anything else.

At least, it should not be the worst situation that she was most worried about and was afraid to hear.

However, she asked anxiously after that:

"How exactly?"

"Has Baozi finished her surgery? Are you awake?"

Before boarding the plane, she had a phone call with No. 5, knowing that this is the girl's parents who finally made a decision and signed the agreement issued by the hospital, and sent the girl to the operating table again to be the most important one. Operation.

Now……

Ten hours have passed.

How is the result?

Number five on the other end of the phone quickly replied: "Well, according to the doctor, the operation went well. The next step is to see when Baozi can recover by himself."

The operation went well?

Su Xue was almost overjoyed when she heard that, even though she was still on the crowded shuttle bus, she couldn't help but dance with excitement:

"Very good!"

"Hey, as expected, the big hospitals in the UK are different. The level is really high!"

"You can rest assured now! Great, great!"

"The bun is cured if he does this, right?"

At this moment, Su Xue was really filled with sudden and huge surprises,

On the way to London, she was so nervous and worried that she couldn't take a good rest in the cabin, for fear that she would hear unacceptable bad news after landing.

But now...

It is simply the most perfect result, isn't it! ?

Then let that guy Xiaofeng know, and there is no need to worry about other things at all!

However, the next moment, the voice from the number five on the other end of the phone seemed to pour cold water on the excited Su Xue:

"It's not that optimistic."

"The doctor said...although the operation went well, it was not considered a 'success' in the true sense."

"It's just that this time Baozi's emergency was relieved and saved, and she was out of the most dangerous state, but if we want to talk about a radical cure... it's still a lot worse."

"Ah?" Su Xue was stunned when she heard that.

But the next moment she realized it, she was anxious: "What do you mean? There is no cure? Didn't you say that this operation took a lot of risk? Didn't some new technology and medicine be used to completely solve that Oxenmer's disease?"

Oxonmore.

A professional pathology term that is quite obscure and difficult to remember.

But Su Xue almost forcibly memorized these words in her mind after hearing it from No. 5 for the first time. She frantically searched for information on the Internet to look up and understand the relevant information of this disease. However, there are very few information items searched, and the few lines of introductory text are shocking——

Oxenmer, a variant of ALS (Asymptomatic Frozen Syndrome), occurs in less than 3 out of 1,000 patients with conventional ALS, and there is no cured case yet.

Temporary, no, cured, healed, sick, case.

Just the last six words.

It's almost enough to make people instantly despair.

As for Su Xue, when she heard on the phone that the girl might be completely cured through the latest operation, she finally felt excited and hopeful, but at this moment...

That little hope was instantly ruthlessly shattered.

"What are you doing!!" At this time, Su Xue was almost out of breath. The St. Edinson Hospital, who was full of praise one second before, immediately changed her attitude 360 ​​degrees in the next second: "What kind of crappy hospital is talking nonsense?" Well, if you can't, just say it straight, isn't this letting Baozi take such a big risk for nothing?"

Number five on the other end of the phone couldn't help but shook his head and smiled wryly:

"The hospital can't be blamed, they have tried their best to do their best, and... It was originally said that this operation only has a little hope of a complete cure, and there is no guarantee."

The truth is of course the truth.

But Su Xue still couldn't help being upset: "But when will it go on like this? By the way, how is the bun now? At least he's out of danger, right?"

No. 5 said "hmm", "During the operation, Baozi woke up once."

Um?

Su Xue finally got a little refreshed, and was diverted from her attention, and hurriedly asked: "And then? Are you in good condition? Did you say anything?"

There was another moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then the voice of No. 5 sounded again:

"When she woke up, she only said one word—"

Having said that, she paused again, and Su Xue on the other end of the phone subconsciously tightened her heart slightly, as if she had vaguely guessed the answer.

"She said, 'Don't let him know'."

The connecting bus was still driving on the tarmac, and the bumpy road was a bit wobbly, and the passengers in the car complained for a while, and there was some noise.

But for Su Xue, the moment she heard the girl's words relayed by No. 5 on the phone, it seemed that the whole world was quiet for a moment.

Only those words are left to linger in my ears——

Don't let him know.

A very endless sentence, one can imagine the scene on the operating table at that time, the girl who was not yet out of danger lay powerlessly on the stage, her expression was pale and bloodless, she reluctantly opened her eyes and tried to speak in a weak voice After uttering such a few words, perhaps he would pass out again immediately.

The "he" in this sentence.

Of course there can't be anyone else.

Su Xue's eye circles were slightly red, she tried her best to sniff her nose to calm down, and forced a smile to say:

"Fortunately... Even if that guy Xiaofeng noticed something, at least none of us let him know the truth, so Baozi should feel relieved—"

But the next moment, the voice of number five on the other end of the phone came again, as if delivering another bad news:

"You didn't have time to tell you on the plane before."

"But I heard from Fang Nan that Xiaofeng is already applying for an expedited visa."

"possible……"

"As soon as tomorrow, he will come."

What! ?

For a moment Su Xue was completely dumbfounded and completely forgot that there were a bunch of passengers beside her and exclaimed: "He, he is coming too!?"

Number five on the other end of the phone smiled helplessly:

"With Xiaofeng's personality...if he senses something a little bit wrong, he will definitely do this kind of thing."

like……

That's true.

It only took Su Xue a second or two to wake up and realize the correctness of this principle, and then she was a little at a loss: "Then... then what should I do now?"

Everyone, including her, tried their best to try to keep this truth a secret from someone, but in the end...someone just didn't care and wanted to kill Manchester City.

It is really the simplest, direct and rude way, but in fact the most effective way.

No. 5 also couldn't answer this question, but said:

"Come here first, and discuss with us after meeting."

"In short..."

"The most urgent task now is to hope that Baozi can wake up quickly."
