Hunting down the Northwest Wilderness

Chapter 19 The Scarlet Letter

The author has something to say: I would like to say a few words before the update. I am deeply touched by the replies in the past two days. I am also very happy about everyone's views on Liang Xu and Luo Xiaoning, because this shows that everyone has three views and are very correct. good girl.Kind, compassionate, but also able to stick to their principles.

When I was conceiving this story, I worried about it with my friends. I said that the two suspects have suffered a lot and have a deep hatred. What should I do if everyone diss the police at the end of this writing?

Friends say no, you have to trust your readers' three views.They will definitely sympathize with those who suffer, but the legal awareness of this generation of readers is really not low.

Now I am relieved.

Zou Saosao hasn't come out yet, so don't worry, the memories of the last chapter and this chapter are definitely not word count.Every criminal embarks on the road of crime, more or less, has his motives.It was my first attempt at a suspense story, and I also hope that everyone can get the fun of deciphering and exploring from the story.Your Zou Laogong is on his way to go online, don’t worry~

By the way, don't treat this chapter as an ordinary memory chapter. Both it and the previous chapter contain many important clues. Let's see who is smarter, you or Xiaofang!

Liang Xu went to Qindu Hospital for the second time, and the time interval was not very long, it was only about the interval from the last Sunday to the second Saturday.

Qin Du wants to make a promotional video for college students to study in the field, to create a positive image for themselves. You can see that Chang'an Medical University is all engaged in activities here, which shows that we are not ordinary private affiliates, we are very serious and high-level hospitals. .

In fact, it still can’t change the essence of its Putian department. Of course, not all Putian departments in those years were black, but there were irregularities in all aspects.The dean of Qindu is still a bit determined, he is not someone who just takes a vote and leaves, he really wants to make a brand in Guanzhong, otherwise he would not be eagerly begging various medical schools to do exchanges.

The club's senior asked Liang Xu if he would go, Liang Xu recalled the experience last time, and felt a little terrified.

"I'll think about it," he said.

The senior looked at him with a smirk: "What are you doing, are you afraid that people will pester you? It's not a big girl, why should I be ashamed!"

Liang Xu's mouth immediately knotted: "I'm not, I didn't..."

——It's not that Liang Xu doesn't want to go, it's because the experience last time was too bad, he was afraid of being laughed at.

That time he woke up Luo Xiaoning in the hospital—I only learned his name afterwards—and the whole floor boiled.Doctors and nurses all squeezed in to watch.

"Do you know that this child has been lying here since the opening of our hospital." The head nurse told Liang Xu: "It's been seven years, and it's only been seven years in our hospital. He was in a vegetable state when he was transferred!"

It can be said that the nurses in Qindu Hospital watched Luo Xiaoning grow up in the hospital bed.Like his vegetative title, he grows weakly like a plant on a hospital bed, relying on nutrient solution and ventilator to maintain his life, which costs a lot of money every year.

Liang Xu felt it was very strange, his family should cherish him very much to save a patient's life like this, but Luo Xiaoning has been awake for so long, no family members showed up, even the phone calls were not answered.He looked around: "Where's his family?"

"That's why it's so strange!" said the head nurse. "His father transfers the money every year, and the medical expenses are a lot, but he hardly comes to see anyone throughout the year. The nurses take care of him. Sometimes his grandma comes to see him." As she said that, she sighed: "The old woman's health is not very good. Once or twice a year, she comes to us for treatment. She is very stingy, and she doesn't seem like someone who is willing to spend money."

"..."

This family is so weird.In this way, their income is not huge, but Luo Xiaoning would rather save money to live on.

Liang Xu was speechless, just dazed.

The head nurse said again: "I'm telling you, young man, this kind of thing is hard to say, either this is an illegitimate child, or, his father is not a father at all, maybe he broke someone else's child and has been losing money , I am afraid that people will say that I am my father if I gossip."

Liang Xu gave her a sharp look. He disapproved of this statement, because he knew the pain of losing a loved one best.

If it were me, I would spare the lives of my loved ones at all costs.

The head nurse chatted excitedly. Seeing that Liang Xu didn't believe him, she became even more confused: "It's reasonable, he doesn't look like his father at all! Nine times out of ten, he was raised by Xiaomi! Look how good-looking this kid is." !"

These words really hurt Liang Xu, and he glared at him angrily.

Seeing that his face was not good-looking, the head nurse walked away embarrassingly.

——The above are all postscripts. Before that, Luo Xiaoning almost made Liang Xu flustered, he didn't recognize anyone, he didn't pay attention to anyone, he was like a chicken just hatched, he only recognized Liang Xu.

He kept holding Liang Xu's fingers tightly, and refused to let go no matter what, the doctor was coming for an examination, Luo Xiaoning couldn't speak, just looked at Liang Xu helplessly, as if Liang Xu was his own father.

The students who came to do volunteer work together were moved by the news and laughed out loud.

"My mother, Xiao Liang, you are so handsome that even a vegetable can wake you up."

Liang Xu was embarrassed to death, Luo Xiaoning grabbed him hard and refused to let go, Liang Xu tried to pry his fingers away, but he didn't know where this newly awakened vegetable boy got so much strength, but he just couldn't pry them off.He was afraid that he might injure the patient with great strength, so he had to sit down and let him hold it.

After arguing for a long time, Liang Xu heard him say something angrily—he leaned over to listen, and heard Luo Xiaoning say intermittently: "Don't go."

It was the first sound he made.

Liang Xu suddenly softened his heart.

So that day, Luo Xiaoning grabbed Liang Xu's fingers and finished the entire physical examination. When undressing, Liang Xu spent the most time in his life to convince Luo Xiaoning that he was just helping him take off his clothes so that the doctor Do the inspection, definitely not to sneak out.

It felt like tricking the cat into taking a bath.

As soon as the inspection was over, Luo Xiaoning immediately held his hand again.

All in all, stick to it.

He seemed very frightened and strenuous, he was dazzled by all the lights, and seemed unable to get used to human voices. He was lying on the hospital bed, maintaining a state of fright all the time, like a frightened rabbit, seeing whoever All trembling slightly.He seemed to be very uncomfortable with his current body - during the physical examination, when he saw his appearance in the small mirror opposite the hospital bed, his shoulders shrank in fright.

Liang Xu felt that he was very much like his former self.

This is an indescribable sympathy.

He no longer pushed him away, and stayed with him until he fell asleep before getting up and leaving.

——Until that time, no one came to visit Luo Xiaoning.

After going back that day, Liang Xu has been preoccupied. He really wanted to see Luo Xiaoning again, but he couldn't help but think of him, worrying that he would be left alone.When eating, he would think, he used to rely on nutrient solution, how can anyone bring him food now?While taking a bath, he would think, there is a shower in his ward, but he didn’t know if someone would help him take a bath; while brushing his teeth, he looked at his face in the mirror, and thought of the peach blossom on Luo Xiaoning’s forehead.

This is a very weird feeling, like picking up a cat on the side of the road and not taking it home for various reasons.Then I wanted to take the ham sausage and feed it the next day.

Seeing that he was absent-minded, Liang Feng couldn't help asking him: "What's wrong with you?"

It doesn't matter what he asked, he put Liang Xu's milk into the trachea.

Liang Feng took pictures of him inexplicably for a long time, and asked him: "I said you, are you in love?"

Liang Xu choked on milk for the second time.

"At this age, it's not that Dad doesn't allow you to talk about friends." Liang Feng said earnestly: "It's fine as long as you don't delay your studies, or does it mean that people don't like you?"

Liang Xu explained for a long time before Liang Feng was willing to believe that his son was not lovesick.

"It's so pitiful." Liang Feng said, "If you want to go and have a look, you can go and have a look and bring some fruit or something."

After thinking about it, he said: "Don't go too often, this family is not normal, don't blackmail you anymore."

After thinking about it again, he sighed: "Oh, I was wrong, son, if you want to do something good, you have to do it boldly, how can there be so many evil-hearted people." He stood up: "How about I give you more money?" Some pocket money?"

…What are these and what? Liang Xu said with a big head, "No need, I will find time to take a look."

He wanted to go with a feeling of apprehension, but there seemed to be no reason.It is normal for the patient to be unconscious when he just wakes up. If he goes there for the second time, what capacity should he go to visit?

This is all secondary. The most important thing is that he is still afraid of bringing misfortune to others, and he has a kind of positive expectation in his heart. He always feels that Luo Xiaoning is different from others, because he seems to bring Luo Xiaoning True luck.

In the midst of his silent entanglement, a week passed, and the senior asked him again if he would go.

"Go." Liang Xu said, "But I want to take care of a patient alone. Can you give me a simpler job?"

The senior laughed out loud: "I won't give you any work!" He said: "You want to see that little fool? Remember to bring a toy."

Liang Xu didn't understand what he meant: "Fool?"

"You'll know when you get there." The senior smiled and said, "You have to take care of him. Let me tell you, it's enough trouble for you."

Now that he walked into the ward, Luo Xiaoning was still alone. He was still unable to move completely autonomously. The long-term bed rest made all his muscles atrophied and weak. He sat on the edge of the bed and stared blankly out of the window.

Outside the window is the clear blue sky of spring.

Liang Xu carried a box of milk and knocked on the door. Luo Xiaoning slowly turned his head, and then his eyes lit up.

"Big brother!"

He yelled out crisply, with a hint of a lost local accent in his tone.

"..." Liang Xu looked confused.

To be honest, Luo Xiaoning is indeed thin and small, but judging from his length and proportions - it is impossible for Liang Xu to be the "big brother".He looked to be at least fifteen or sixteen years old. Because he was thin and pale, and his eyes were particularly large, he showed a kind of indistinguishable youthful air.

It was a little embarrassing for a big brother who was two years older.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Luo Xiaoning immediately became timid. After a while, he said inarticulately, "I won't pester you anymore today."

Seeing that Liang Xu couldn't go over, he had no choice but to say, "I'm sorry, last time."

Before he could say a few words, tears came out.

Liang Xu had no choice but to put down the milk and wipe away his tears: "Don't cry, don't cry, I—I—" He "I" for a long time, but no "I" came out.

Now he understands why the senior asked him to bring toys, this is mentally retarded!

Luo Xiaoning really stopped crying, he stared at the milk Liang Xu put on the low cabinet.

Liang Xu followed his eyes and couldn't help laughing. He bent down and looked at Luo Xiaoning: "Want to drink?"

Luo Xiaoning hesitated for a long time, then nodded shyly.

"I can only drink a little." Liang Xu said, "I'm afraid your stomach can't bear it, so I'll find some boiling water to warm you up."

Luo Xiaoning looked up at him and smiled embarrassedly.

——Yes, this patient has too many problems, but he is really cute. If you want to treat him like a child, he is even very polite and well-behaved.

Liang Xu has never been so bold to get close to others, let alone take care of others, he finds it very interesting.In the past, raising cats and dogs was afraid of raising them to death, but now they are raising older children for no reason.

For no reason, he was very sure that Luo Xiaoning would be fine.As long as he smiles, it seems that any problem can be solved.He laughed with indescribable innocence.

He carried the milk and the enamel jug to find hot water, smiling unconsciously along the way.It happened that I ran into the attending doctor who was making rounds.

"Yo, Xiao Liang, did you come to see 8622?"

"Doctor Tang." Liang Xu stood still: "Does he have an IQ problem?"

Dr. Tang nodded: "It doesn't matter. He has been in a coma for too long and has cognitive impairments. After all, no one can turn around after lying down for so long."

In other words, Luo Xiaoning's IQ is still a child.Dr. Tang said that after evaluating several times a week, it may only be at the cognitive level of an eight-year-old.

No wonder he blurted out to call Liang Xu "big brother".

"Can you recover?"

Dr. Tang smiled awkwardly: "You are not a family member, so I might as well tell you the truth. If he can really recover, he will adapt to the current situation within a week, and his adaptation speed is far below the normal level." Dr. Tang said He had to be reserved: "This is not a terminal illness, anyway... Anyway, if you teach it slowly, you can take care of yourself."

In other words, it is impossible for Luo Xiaoning to live like a normal person, his intelligence will always stop at the age of eight.

"... Was it a brain injury?"

"Maybe." Dr. Tang rubbed his head: "I don't know too much about it. He seemed to be in a vegetable state when he was transferred." He laughed as he said, "I've only been in Qindu for a year, so I really don't know. I can't come up. Xiaoliang, their family members don't worry too much, so don't make trouble for yourself."

Liang Xu just smiled and watched him go away.

Inadvertently, he lowered his head to look at the enamel jar in his hand—this jar was very old, obviously an old thing, Liang Xu felt that it was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

...This is not something that has been bought in recent years, and no one uses this kind of enamelled cylinder now.

He turned the vat over, and there were words printed on the body of the vat. It was very old, and the handwriting was ninety-nine out of ten.

Indistinctly, those remaining scarlet letters were printed piecemeal and intermittently:

Jin... County... Village... Da.
