Beacon 1937

September [-], [-], late at night

Aiwen felt that the scene in front of him was constantly switching, and sometimes he felt that the place he was in was constantly bumping.He saw Chen Yuchen's anxious face passing by, and in the blink of an eye, he saw the enlarged Germanic face of Dr. Friedrich whom he hadn't seen for two years.

Closing his eyes again, the surroundings were suddenly silent, and he couldn't see anyone or anything, only the soft light of white enveloped him.Ai Wen wandered aimlessly in the white space, not knowing where he was and where he was going.Until the scenery in front of him is no longer a single white, until he sees a person, that person is his dead mother.

My mother was still as beautiful as I remembered, she looked very noble and elegant in a white embroidered cheongsam.She smiled at Ivan without showing her teeth.However, it didn't take long for that smile to turn into a sad one, her eyebrows were frowned, and she raised a jade hand to make a gesture to Aiwen forbidding her to move on.

"You shouldn't be here my child, you shouldn't be here..."

Her voice was ethereal, like a gust of wind passing by his ears, gently sweeping away all the turmoil in the past two years for him.

It was another blink, and the scene in front of him changed qualitatively in the next second.He realized that he was lying on an uncomfortable and soft bed, the surrounding lights were dim, and the familiar smell of disinfectant permeated the whole room.

Staring blankly at the ceiling for a long time, Ai Wen gradually understood that this was a single ward of a hospital.He felt that his hand was being tightly held, so he turned his head to look with difficulty... Chen Yuchen lay on the edge of the bed with a bearded face and fell into a deep sleep.

Ai Wen instantly felt that the time was a bit reversed. The same scene happened a while ago, but compared with that time, the positions of the two of them were completely reversed.

He stared intently at the Chinese soldier whom he hadn't seen for a long time by the soft light of the desk lamp... It seemed that this big boy who was three years younger than himself had matured a lot in two years after experiencing many battles.

"Chen Yuchen..." Ai Wen called out, but found that his throat was very dry and his voice was hoarse and soft.

For some reason, at this moment, he felt inexplicably anxious, wanting to wake up Chen Yuchen immediately, as if he was hungry.

"Chen Yuchen!" This time, he not only held the other hand tightly, but also shouted out with all his strength, and finally broke through the dry throat that hadn't entered the water for several days.

The Chinese lying on the edge of the bed suddenly woke up: "Ivan..." His eyes were bloodshot because he hadn't gotten enough sleep for several days, but his black pupils suddenly lit up when he saw the awakened American doctor.

"I'll fetch Dr. Friedrich!"

"No, no, don't go." Ai Wen was weak, but still held Chen Yuchen desperately, "I'll call him in the morning. I think my condition can't be solved by injection or medicine, so I'm not in a hurry."

Chen Yuchen was startled when he heard the words, and he stood there and couldn't move anymore.

"I think you have already irradiated my whole body (Note [-]), especially... the head." Listening to Aiwen's calm words, the Chinese soldiers trembled all over, "You know, my mother died of Cancer, so..."

"So you may also have cancer, because cancer is hereditary." Chen Yuchen turned around suddenly, his black eyes were full of injuries.

"Yes, although the light may not be able to irradiate the cancer cells, but sometimes it does not irradiate it does not mean that there is no inside... But judging from your reaction, I think my light film does show that there are foreign objects."

Ai Wen was extremely calm, but this just angered Chen Yuchen: "You don't understand my feelings at all Ai Wen, I took you back with great difficulty, but in the next second I learned that you might have cancer. My heart seems to have been poked countless times A hole, but why can you be so calm?"

"No, you're wrong, I'm not, I'm not at all calm. I beg you to wait until morning to call Dr. Friedrich just because I'm not at all ready for a doctor to come and announce that I might break down. " Ivan's hoarse voice seemed extremely painful.

Chen Yuchen suddenly possessed him and hugged him tightly: "Ai Wen, Ai Wen..."

"You know, maybe it's not as bad as we think, maybe it's something else in my head. While it's a miracle that it's still in there and not affecting me badly, there have been cases. "

"Another thing?"

"Yes, if that's the case, I think my survival rate will be greatly improved. After dawn, I need to discuss it with Dr. Friedrich."

Chen Yuchen sat on the edge of the bed, stared at Ai Wen for a long time before saying: "...you...are you lying to me?"

"...No, no, I promise." He did not lie to him, but the craniotomy itself has huge risks.Although a lot of research has been done on the brain in medicine, the success rate of this operation is not high, and a slight deviation will cause many lifelong sequelae.However, he may have reached the point where he would have to undergo surgery.

"I want to drink some water." Ai Wen propped his elbows on the bed and wanted to get up, but his body was limp and weak, and water was still hanging on one hand. Fortunately, he could sit up with the help of Chen Yuchen.

The Chinese youth who had been promoted to captain handed him a glass of water. Ai Wen almost knocked it over when he took it. Chen Yuchen held the glass in time to avoid spilling the whole glass of water on the bedding.

"Here...what's the matter?" He firmly grasped Ivan's hand holding the water glass with one hand, and stroked the obvious teeth marks on his white neck with the other hand.

The American doctor hastily pulled up the collar of the hospital gown and said, "...it's nothing."

The atmosphere suddenly became a little weird, but without saying a word, Chen Yuchen suddenly grabbed the water glass and said, "I'll feed you."

Ai Wen couldn't react in time. He thought that the other party wanted to feed him with a spoon, but his lips were sealed instantly.

Note [-]: China first introduced a complete set of optical instruments in [-], which were installed in Suzhou Boyi Hospital.Although light can be used in a wider range than CT and MRI, its ability to analyze the brain is not as good as CT. However, CT and MRI did not exist in that era.
