Idiot's Dream in the Black Basket

The smell of disinfectant water unique to the hospital was pungent. When Haizaki opened his eyes, he found that he was in a single ward in the hospital. The beige curtains were pulled up, and the transparent glass windows were tightly closed. There are snow-covered brown branches and a few gray-brown husky sparrows sitting on the branches with their wings curled up and combing their feathers with their beaks.He glanced at the drip needle inserted on the back of his right hand, and frowned.

When the door was opened, besides the middle-aged doctor in a white coat, there was also a long-lost mother who had been on the other end of the phone.Haizaki himself can't remember how long it has been since he saw this mother who is actually the same blood. Her makeup is elegant and delicate, her actual age cannot be seen, her temperament is cold and alienated, and the temperature in her eyes is also cold when she looks at Haizaki. It was very light, and there was no worry or other emotions, as if it was not her son lying on the hospital bed at this time, but an irrelevant stranger.

"Mrs. Seto, the operation was successful. Now that Haizaki-kun is awake, his life will not be in danger."

Haizaki was stunned for a moment. Although he didn't know much about his mother's actual situation, he also knew that after divorcing his father, her mother married a famous jewelry designer. That man's surname was Seto, so the doctor just now Call her Mrs. Seto instead of Mrs. Haizaki.Although I understand this in my heart, actually hearing others call her that, seems to make their already shallow relationship even more dispensable, as if it could be completely broken at any time.

Machiko Seto nodded, and frowned unconsciously when she looked at Haizaki, but she didn't say anything accusatory in the end, "Shogo, how do you feel now?"

The strength of the anesthetic had not yet passed, and Haizaki didn’t feel much. It was only when the doctor told his mother about the situation that he realized that he had undergone an operation. His chest was wrapped in white medical cotton so that he could not see the specific injury. , but he remembered Suzuki's shocked expression when he stabbed the knife into his chest, his face was ugly, but he still replied, "Nothing special."

On the other hand, the doctor showed dissatisfaction, "When you are only a teenager, you use a knife when you fight. Do you know that if the knife is shifted to the left by an inch, you will not be able to open your eyes and talk to me now?"

Haizaki lowered his eyes, his face was as pale as if covered with a thin layer of frost and snow, and he asked after a while, "How did I get sent to the hospital?"

The doctor sighed, "It was the man named Suzuki who stabbed you who ran to the public phone booth to make an emergency call."

During the fight, Huizaki was so stimulated by Suzuki's deliberately provocative words that he lost his mind, angry, and depressed. Coupled with Akashi's avoidance, his emotions were out of balance. He went to snatch the mobile phone in Suzuki's pocket with red eyes, and after he snatched it, he felt like venting Trample your phone beyond repair.Suzuki's knife didn't have eyes, and the knife that was supposed to land on Haizaki's arm pierced into the heart because of Haizaki's sudden turn around and he had no time to withdraw his strength, like a black joke that couldn't find a point of humor.

"Where is my cell phone?" Haizaki raised his brows, his cell phone is not very valuable, except for a few necessary contacts, there is only one saved photo of Akashi in it, and there is no privacy that makes people speechless , but now that his mobile phone is not with him, he has no way to contact Akashi.

"I thought you would ask what happened to the person who stabbed you first? Your mobile phone should have been lost when it was delivered, and the medical staff in our hospital didn't see it." The doctor took out the medical record and read it. With a glance, he said to Seto Machiko, "Although Haizaki-kun has passed the critical period, but after all, it is such a serious injury, you can follow me to pay the hospitalization fee first, and pay for the medicine and hospitalization for one month first." Bar."

Machiko Seto nodded, and when she walked to the door, she suddenly turned her head and asked Haizaki, "Do you have a favorite mobile phone model?"

Haizaki was stunned for a moment before realizing what she meant, and said, "I don't have any particular favorite phone model, as long as it's a smartphone."

"Okay, I will bring you a new mobile phone tomorrow. If you are bored, you can watch TV first. As for school, think about whether there is any middle school you want to go to. Your father will help."

"...Diguang is pretty good."

Machiko Seto did not refute, but said, "Teiko Middle School is good, but your incident has a great impact this time. Although it is an off-campus incident, it is beyond the scope of ordinary middle school students' fights. I mean, do you understand?" ?”

After she finished speaking, she walked out of the room, and when she closed the door, she said, "This is your own business, so think about it carefully."

The effect of the anesthetic began to fade slowly, and the punctured part of the heart began to slowly spread pain. Since the operation had been performed, it meant that the wound had been sutured, but the pain was still there.Haizaki turned his face and looked out of the window. Even if there was no heavy snowfall, the winter sky looked gray and gloomy. He suddenly remembered the blue sky in summer when he was 17 years old, and the knife that was inserted deep in his heart. Although it was painful , but it is true that he is alive, not dead.

Haizaki fell asleep in a daze, and dreamed of the time when he really saw Akashi for the first time. It was the beginning of the school season in March. The street was covered with cherry blossoms that were light pink and close to white, and the students in white uniforms The red-haired boy stepped out of the piano-black Rolls-Royce Phantom, his smiling face was elegant and very beautiful, like the cherry blossoms falling when the wind blows, and the white snow in the winter.

From the first moment he saw Akashi, he plunged into his fate.

The campus in the dream was suddenly empty, and the hustle and bustle of people disappeared immediately, as if there were only Akashi and him in the whole world, Haizaki watched the red-haired boy getting closer and closer, and finally seemed to have not seen him Pass him and move on.Haizaki wanted to chase after him, but his feet seemed to be welded to the ground, and he couldn't move a single step. Seeing the person walking farther and farther away, and even his back gradually disappeared from sight, he finally shouted in panic, "Don't go !"

"Did you have a nightmare?"

The panic in the dream still lingered in his heart for a while, Haizaki listened quietly to the panicked heartbeat gradually calming down, and then looked at Sasaki Rika who came to the ward at some point.He sat up with some difficulty, glanced at the fruit basket placed on the side, and said with lowered eyelids, "Why did you come here? Don't say it's just to visit."

Sasaki Rika smiled, "Don't say that, we are friends after all."

"...I've never thought so before." Haizaki frowned, Sasaki Rika was so close to him, he could even smell the smell of cigarettes and mint mixed on her body clearly, "If you want to inquire If there is any news, let Suzuki come here by himself."

Sasaki Rika stared into Haizaki's eyes, and chuckled softly, "Ah, he can't come to see you, Suzuki was beaten so badly by his father that he couldn't even get out of bed."

"his dad?"

"Shogo, even Suzuki has a father, and he is not an orphan." Sasaki Rika took out a cigarette from his pocket, squeezed it with his fingers, put it under his nose, sniffed it twice, and then put it back into the cigarette case, "The situation of their family It's quite complicated, and it's not convenient for me to say more. Ah, the hospital is really annoying, there is no way to smoke."

Although Sasaki Rika has been downplaying Suzuki's situation, Haizaki can still feel the anxiety hidden under her calm face, and suddenly said, "Don't use me as a cover in the future, Suzuki really likes you, He will take it seriously."

The smile on Sasaki Rika's face suddenly froze, "You think too much."

"Go back, I won't sue him."

"...Sorry, Xiangwu." Sasaki Rika smiled again, "After all, you are still different from us."

Haizaki didn't want to think deeply about the meaning of her words, but said, "Everyone is different."

"That's right. Also, Suzuki's cell phone was completely ruined. He said you looked like a lunatic when you stepped on his cell phone." Seeing that Haizaki's face was not good, Sasaki Rika shrugged, "I don't have anything else Meaning, Suzuki won't talk nonsense, and I will naturally keep my mouth shut."

Haizaki frowned tightly, with deep creases between his brows, and looked at Sasaki Rika without saying a word.

"Don't look at me with such an expression, you are a patient who just came back from the gate of hell."

"Sasaki," Haizaki read out her name word by word, and solemnly said, "Whether it's Suzuki or you, we will never meet again in the future."

Sasaki Rika was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Yes." She pointed to the beautifully packaged fruit basket she brought over, "You are so popular, Xiangwu, it seems that no one comes to see you except me, don't forget this eat."

"......Nothing to do with you."

"Well, that's right," Sasaki Rika suddenly curled up her lips, her eyes seemed to be filled with curiosity without any purpose, "Hey, Shogo, your affairs have already caused a lot of trouble in school. Got it. Today is the weekend, Akashita, why hasn't he come to see you yet?"
