Ning Xiaobei sat on the bench outside the emergency room, stroking his tightly wrapped head, and four words flashed through his mind—dream bubble.

Regarding the last scene in this "real world", he only remembered that after saying goodbye to Chang Leyun, he finally went to the bar with Fan Xia.

As for how he was injured and how he got to the hospital, he had no memory at all.

He thought, maybe his consciousness was at the junction of two parallel worlds at the time, and the pulling force on both sides was constantly tearing, causing a large part of his memory to be lost.

"Officer, I really can't remember. I don't know if it's because I drank too much, or because I was injured by the smash."

Ning Xiaobei pointed to the melon seeds on his head that had been beaten to bloom.

No wonder it hurt so much in the dream. I was knocked back and forth twice with a glass bottle, and my bones were almost exposed. Can it not hurt?

The policeman who was talking to him in front of him knew him.On the first day of the reunion with Fan Xia, he was the one who went to the police with Fan Xia, and his surname seemed to be Chen.

"Officer Chen, is Fan Xia okay?"

Just now he watched helplessly that Fan Xia, who was in oxygen, was pushed into the operating room, covered under a blue sheet, and red blood kept pouring out from under the sheet, looking very bad.

"He was stabbed twice, the wound was in a dangerous position, and it caused heavy bleeding. Hey..."

Officer Chen sighed, and stuffed the small notebook with the transcript into the pocket of the police vest.

"Those two are wanted criminals. I haven't found any trace of them before. I didn't expect that they would go to Bar Street."

"The wanted……"

Ning Xiaobei still wanted to ask again, but in the next second, he felt dizzy, his head seemed to be split open, and he had to sit back on the bench.

"Hey, patient, why are you running around? Are you so energetic after getting stitches? Mr. Police, please wait until the patient's condition is stable before asking questions?"

A nurse pushed a wheelchair over and helped Ning Xiaobei up, speaking to the police in a somewhat rude tone.

Officer Chen saw that he couldn't find anything useful to ask, so he left.

"Nurse, I'm fine. I'm fine. Can you help me see what's going on in the operating room?"

Ning Xiaobei said anxiously.

"How are you doing? You just had stitches and a simple bandage. You still have to go for CT and MRI. I will issue you an injury report soon."

The nurse nimbly pushed the wheelchair and walked towards the examination room. While walking, she took something out of her pocket and put it in Ning Xiaobei's palm.

"Here, it fell off when I was cutting the patient's clothes just now. It's a pity that it has been broken. You are his friend, so I will leave it to you."

The little nurse lowered her head while talking, secretly looking at Ning Xiaobei's side face,

Although he was tightly wrapped in bandages, he was still a rare handsome man.Probably due to blood loss, the patient's face was pale to almost pale. Under the light of the corridor, the thick eyelashes cast a shadow on his cheeks, making him look fragile and helpless.

Originally, the night shift was so busy today, and the nurse wanted to scold people, but if there is a handsome guy watching, the mood seems to be a little better.

Ning Xiaobei held the white jade Guanyin that had been broken into two, his palm trembling slightly.

He wiped off the blood stained on Guanyin's cheek with the fingers of his left hand, and rolled up the cuff of his left arm with his right hand.

A string of sandalwood beads appeared on his wrist.

The dark brown Buddha beads have a moist radiance, which is the patina that will only be formed after years of playing.Even the beaded rubber band has become a little loose due to age, it must have been worn for many years, and it has almost become a part of the body, so he has not noticed that there is such a thing on his wrist from the beginning until now.

Another product influenced by a parallel world.No, it's two.

After the examination, the nurse pushed Ning Xiaobei to the observation ward to rest.

He asked the nurse several times what happened to the police officer who was attacked. The nurse only said that he was still being rescued, and they couldn't go in casually.

Ning Xiaobei was half lying on the hospital bed, watching the people rushing back and forth outside the corridor, only then did he realize that the emergency room at night is so colorful.

In just half an hour, he saw young couples who broke their heads in fights, those who ate fish and got their throats stuck by fishbone, those who drank so much that they got drunk in the emergency room, and some women who were about to give birth were sent to the hospital by their families. When I came to the hospital, the husband was holding the pre-delivery bag and crying.

A small emergency room gathers the vicissitudes of life.

Ning Xiaobei really missed Fan Xia, his feet were limp and he couldn't walk, the wheelchair had been pushed away by the nurse just now, and now he didn't even have a means of transportation around him.

He struggled twice and got off the bed with all his strength.Opening the door, he leaned on the wooden handrails in the corridor with both arms and moved little by little towards the rescue room.

It just so happened that an old lady with a ruptured aneurysm was brought here, and her life was in danger. The doctors and nurses in the emergency department rushed to rescue her, but no one noticed her.

After finally moving himself to the door of the emergency room, half of Ning Xiaobei's body was already drenched in sweat, and the bandage on his head was slightly oozing blood.But he didn't realize it, he was only thinking about Fan Xia's life and death.

Officer Chen said just now that according to the surveillance video reviewed at the scene, Fan Xia was injured in order to save him.Otherwise, with his ability, let alone two, he can easily deal with it twice.

If something happened to Fan Xia... Ning Xiaobei covered his cheeks with his hands, he couldn't imagine how he would face the world without Fan Xia.

Besides, he had a hunch in his heart that if Fan Xia really lost his life in this "real world", the "dream world" might also collapse.Anything that changes everything, anything that saves Dad will be annihilated and become empty talk.

He looked up at the screen in the emergency room, and the three red letters "in operation" were still displayed.Sitting slumped on the bench, gasping for breath, I just felt that those three words were extremely harsh, and every word was bloody.

At this moment, the indicator lights went out, and with the sound of "crash", Fan Xia was pushed out from inside.

Ning Xiaobei wanted to get up, but his legs heaved up and down as if they were stepping on a small sampan.The two eyes are as if they have been in a movie. For a while, they are dark, then colorful, and then there are pieces of TV snowflakes. Finally, the feet give up and fall back to their original places.

"Hey, handsome boy, why are you here again? Oh, why is it bleeding again?"

Finding someone missing in the observation room, the nurse searched all the way, and finally found him here again.

"I'll be back in a while, please help me see how he is doing."

Ning Xiaobei waved at the nurse.But the little nurse was very determined this time, insisting on letting him go back to the hospital bed and lie down now.

While talking, a young woman who was full of travel and dust rushed over.As soon as she saw Fan Xia on the hospital bed, she cried and rushed forward, yelling something in a foreign language.

The woman was born beautiful, with fair skin, and her shiny black hair draped over her shoulders, shaking.

She cried so sadly that it seemed like she was going to take her heart out.Big and big tears really fell on the back of his hand like pearls with broken strings. For the first time, Ning Xiaobei knew that this sentence did not seem like an exaggerated comparison, but a realistic one.

"He also said he didn't have a girlfriend... and brought Chang Leyun to be a 'smoke bomb'."

Ning Xiaobei whispered.

It turns out that the girlfriend is so beautiful and the relationship is so good.

Ning Xiaobei knew that he shouldn't be thinking about such insignificant things at this moment, but he couldn't help thinking about it.

The nurse standing beside Fan Xia asked her if she was the family member of the patient, and the girl nodded.

Ning Xiaobei's heart plummeted.

Then the doctor told the woman that Fan Xia was stabbed in the chest by a sharp object, but fortunately, she was very lucky to avoid the vital heart.The operation went well, but he lost a lot of blood and needs to be admitted to the ICU for further observation and treatment. The final situation can only be judged after he wakes up.

Hearing this, the girl and Ning Xiaobei both heaved a sigh of relief.

But even more cramped.

She finally noticed that there was still a person standing here, and she cast a questioning look at him curiously, with tears still hanging beside her big sparkling eyes.

Ning Xiaobao was inexplicably angry and timid.

He felt like a clown, and he came over to guard, but the real "family" came.

So when the nurse who came to chase him came to help him with the back of his hand, he no longer resisted, and obediently followed her back to the ward.

"and many more……"

The girl suddenly yelled behind Ning Xiaobei, "Nong A is Brother Xiaobei?"

The tone of her Shanghai dialect was a bit funny, and the nurse supporting Ning Xiaobei couldn't help laughing.

Ning Xiaobei turned her head slowly, only then did she realize that what the girl was speaking just now was not a foreign language at all, but the local dialect of Chongming Island.

"Ah, it's really Brother Xiao Bei."

The woman smiled, and the teardrop hanging from the corner of her eye also fell down with a "swipe".

"Nong is... a heroine?"

Ning Xiaobei asked uncertainly.

Fan Xia's little sister, Fan Nvxia?

With a "Hula", the heart that had fallen to the ground returned to its original position, beating cracklingly.

"Little Bei A Ge Nong was also injured... What a crime. Is the wound serious?"

"Still waiting for the results of the injury test."

In the observation ward, sister Fan Xia was sitting opposite Ning Xiaobei, looking at him anxiously.

"When Big Brother's colleague called me, I was so frightened that I lost my mind. I didn't dare to tell my parents, so I asked my husband to drive to the city quickly."

She took out her handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "I asked the doctor just now, but I can't go in to visit him now, I have to wait until tomorrow. If the dangerous period tonight is over, I can go in and see him tomorrow. .”

She said and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Brother Xiaobei, don't call me 'Fan Nuxia' from now on. That was my former name. I changed my name to 'Fan Baixue' after I went to school." .You don't want to call me by my original name in front of outsiders..."

Fan Jian is very lazy and named his son Fan Xia.When it comes to the girl, it becomes a fan woman here.He was also very complacent, saying that Fan Xia's son would be called "Fan Xiaoxia" in the future.

In the whole family, only the father and son think it sounds good, and the whole family is speechless.

"Are mom and dad okay? I heard from Fan Xia that you are married and pregnant?"

Unexpectedly, I saw her in the countryside during the summer vacation of the second year of junior high school. She was still a little girl who was eating snot and running around behind Fan Xia in crotch pants. She was so big in the blink of an eye-it really deserved the name "Blink of an Eye" .

"Mom and Dad are in good health. My mother uses TikTok every day, shoots videos, and dances by the river after dinner. Dad goes fishing every day. It was already very dark, but now it is even darker..."

Fan Xia's sister was very anxious, so she had to keep talking as a cover.

After a while, her husband Ahua came in and said that the hospitalization procedures for both of them had been completed.

"Brother Xiaobei, our husband and wife will not bother you anymore. I think you are tired too."

Ava said in a low voice.

Seeing that Ning Xiaobei was struggling to cope with her haggard appearance, Fan Baixue suddenly realized and hurriedly stood up.

"My family, Ahua, is staying with you outside the ICU today. I'll come to see you tomorrow morning and bring some change of clothes. Brother Xiaobei, don't you mind using my brother's things?"

She has the key to Zhao Jingwen's house and is going to pack some clothes later.

"It's okay, just to trouble you."

It might be due to excessive blood loss, Ning Xiaobei felt very tired and couldn't help closing his eyes.

Seeing this, Fan Baixue and his wife glanced at each other, got up and left.

"and many more……"

Just when the two were about to step out of the threshold, Ning Xiaobei called Fan Baixue back again.

"If you can go to the ICU tomorrow, help me put this on his hand."

As Ning Xiaobei said, he took the beads off his arm.

He is not a superstitious person, so after entering the "dream world", his first reaction is that this is the so-called parallel world in science fiction, not the theory of past and present lives.

But for Fan Xia, he is willing to believe once.

"Ah, yes."

Fan Baixue took the beads and backed out.

"Hey, Elder Brother Xiaobei and my elder brother really have a good relationship. You can give me such personal things as gifts."

After all, Fan Baixue is a healthy person, and after working hard for several hours, it is inevitable that she will be a little tired. She said to her husband, Ahua, while beating his back.

Although Ahua was young, he was very steady, he hugged his wife's waist, nodded and said nothing.

----

Fan Xia was out of danger the next day and was transferred to the general ward, but for some reason he never woke up.

Colleagues and leaders from the police station came to visit one after another. In order not to disturb the rest of other patients, the hospital specially separated him into a single ward.The leader of the police station specifically stated that they would be responsible for all of Fan Xia's medical expenses, and asked the old man not to worry about money, but to give him the best medicine.

"Thank you for the care of the leader. I taught my son to serve the country loyally since childhood. Don't say it's just an injury, it's okay to risk your life for the country."

Fan Jian held the hand of the bureau leader with a proud expression.

"Uncle Fan, drink some water."

Xiaohua and his wife went to see off the guests, and Ning Xiaobei hurriedly brought a cup of ginseng tea to Fan Jian.

"Hey, I'm so sorry. Xiaobei, you're hurt yourself, and you still care so much about us Xiaoxia."

Fan Jian took the water glass and gave a wry smile.

He was all outsiders just now, no matter how much pain he felt in his heart, he could only hold on.Only in front of his daughter and son-in-law, Xiaobei, who is similar to his son, can he relax a little bit.

"Uncle, I'm fine, it's just a flesh injury. Wait for the stitches to be removed in two days. Besides, Fan Xia did it to save me from the injury."

Ning Xiaobei touched the bandage on his head as he spoke, his brows twitched in pain, but he didn't dare to show it in front of Fan Jian, so he had to endure it.

"What can't be saved? He is the people's policeman, and it's his responsibility to protect the people. Besides, you grew up together. If it weren't for you, Xiaobei, would he be a policeman? He would just be a bastard. I still remember Before he transferred to No. [-] Middle School, he was so dizzy that he couldn't accept being hung up and beaten."

Although the old man is old, his eyes are still dark and bright, his body is straight, and his voice is booming.

When Fan Jian smiles now, he still has the taste of "Little Ma Brother" back then, with a sense of loyalty from the children of the world who have been through the weather.No wonder it attracted a lot of girls back then, probably because of the charm of the so-called prodigal son.

Ning Xiaobei couldn't help but wonder if Fan Xia would be like this when he was old.

That's fine, at least healthy.

"Xiaobei is always awake, what should I do... His mother found out from abroad, and she was in a hurry. It's all caused by the epidemic, and I can't even go back to China..."

Fan Jian couldn't help sighing, he has been scolded by his ex-wife several times in the video these days, and now he doesn't even want to open WeChat.

The old man turned his head and looked at his son lying on the hospital bed, his thick eyebrows frowned.

Ashamed to say, what he did as a father was very irresponsible.After divorcing his wife in the early years, he left his son in the care of his uncle, and he only cared about his own chic life.Later, although she got married to the heroine's mother and settled down, she was still very ashamed to see her son.

He is not the kind of person who talks about love and love, so he has to use banknotes and houses to express his apology.Fortunately, my son has never blamed himself, and has always been filial to him.

In his eyes, this son has always been lively and energetic, like a little monkey who can't stop for a moment.

Lying motionless on the bed like this now, the whole person seems to wither away.Father and son are connected, how can he not feel sad.

If Fan Xia couldn't wake up like this, wouldn't he be a white-haired man sending a black-haired man?

"Xiao Bei, Uncle, go out to get some air..."

Fan Jian stood up and secretly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand.He has always shown himself as a tough guy. He is old and not aging, so he can't lose face in front of Xiao Bei.

There was a room full of people standing just now, and after a while, there were only two people left.

Ning Xiaobei pulled a chair and sat on Fan Xia's bedside, looking at his haggard face.

After a few days of coma, his chin was covered with short stubble, and even his cheeks were sunken.Is this still the Fan Xia who is always full of vitality in memory, shining like a little sun on the people around him?

"Fan Xia, wake up."

He held his hand and called over and over again in a low voice.

"As long as you can wake up, let me do anything."

"Fan Xia, Fan Xia..."

After a long time, the door of the ward was quietly pushed open.

A crutch came in, followed by the half-hunted body of the old man.

He raised his head and looked at the scene in front of him.

The warm sun of early winter came in through the window, reflecting on the two men who were not considered young.The two of them fell asleep with their heads leaning against each other, their hands intertwined, just like when they were children.

"Hey……"

Zhao Jingwen let out a long sigh.

The author has something to say:

Fan Nvxia has also grown up, haha.Fan Jian, you're welcome, this is your son-in-law
