Reservoir Dogs

Fu Jingsan was stunned for a moment, stopped packing his things, and turned to get his cell phone: "I'll answer the call...!"

There are only a handful of people who can call him, and one of them is sitting behind him; "Sister" flashed on the screen of the phone, Fu Jingsan didn't think too much, after connecting, he clamped the phone on his shoulder, tilted his head and said : "Hello, sister?"

There was a burst of intermittent breathing from the receiver, and then his sister's voice came out: "Sir, are you off to school..."

Although she tried her best to pretend to be as energetic as usual, Fu Jingsan still noticed that she was not in the right state.

"Sister, what's wrong with you!"

"No, it's nothing..." Fu Jing said, coughing a few times suddenly, "I just feel a little low-grade fever... buy me a box of antipyretics when I come back..."

"Just wait, I'll be right back! Right away!"

Huo Yunjiang watched him hang up the phone hastily, then grabbed the papers and exercise books on the table and randomly stuffed them into the drawer: "I'll go back and find you later!"

"Go back for what?"

"My sister has a fever, I'll go back and have a look!" Fu Jingsan said, throwing her bag on her shoulder, and hurriedly squeezed out from behind Luo Chen.Huo Yunjiang didn't know how to react for a moment, he looked blankly at the man walking quickly to the back door, then turned his head, and hurriedly said "Happy Birthday" before leaving.

Luo Chen looked back: "Your birthday, Huo Yunjiang?"

"No." Huo Yunjiang just replied one word without beginning or end, picked up the bag with a dull expression, and followed.

Luo Chen was at a loss, felt weird but couldn't tell where the weirdness was, and unconsciously sighed: "The relationship between the two of them is really good..."

It happened that the school committee passed by him, and he answered his words in a strange way: "The ruffian and the pervert play well, and it's quite funny."

"Ha, what do you mean?"

"It's not interesting." The school committee glanced at Luo Chen, and sneered with crooked lips, "Their brains are not normal, you should be careful to be infected."

"...I didn't see you interacting with the two of them, how did you know that your brain is not normal..."

The school committee didn't reply, just left.

Fu Jingsan walked quickly, almost overstepped when passing by the pharmacy, and turned back to buy medicine.

"Anti-fever medicine! Hurry up!" Fu Jingsan stood in front of the counter viciously, clapping his hands on the table, as if he was looking for trouble.The lazily dawdling cashier was startled by his posture, and quickly got up to search in the cabinet: "...you buy medicine when you buy medicine, what are you doing so scary, really...here, 21."

Fu Jingsan hurriedly took out the change and threw it on the table. Before anyone could count the money, he grabbed the medicine box and left.

For him, a cold, a headache, and a fever are just trivial things that can be overcome; but his sister is different... She is still ill, and any abnormality will make Fu Jingsan think that she will die.

When he ran home, he saw Lao Li in uniform walking towards the dangerous building again.The other party raised his chin enthusiastically: "Little San, is school over?"

Fu Jingsan had no time to talk to him, and rushed upstairs like a gust of wind.

"Sister, sister!" He opened the door and rushed into Fu Jingyi's cubicle. The other party was curled up in the quilt, and turned his head to reveal a flushed face.

She just opened her mouth to say something when she coughed violently.

The cough was a heavy noise, and Fu Jingsan felt painful just listening to it.He walked quickly to the bed, raised his hand to touch his sister's forehead, and immediately felt the frightening heat: "You told me it was a low-grade fever?! Why didn't you call me earlier!!"

"...it's okay, it's okay, I don't think...it's serious..."

"It's not serious!" Fu Jingsan roared in a low voice, grabbed the cotton coat next to her, lifted the quilt and wrapped it around her sister, "Button the coat, and I'll take you to the hospital right now!"

As he spoke, he threw his bag, all the keys to his mobile phone, and the antipyretics he just bought in the living room, and turned to get the money from the cabinet.

Fu Jingsan got up in a hurry, and there was a lot of movement, and the room sounded like a thief had entered the room.

Lao Li, who just came upstairs, looked at their house with his head in doubt: "What happened?"

Fu Jingsan rolled up a wad of money and stuffed it into the inner pocket of his clothes. When he turned around, he saw Lao Li: "...my sister is ill, I will take her to the hospital."

"What's wrong? Is it serious? Call 120?" Lao Li asked quickly.

"No... I'll take her to the hospital."

"Then I'll call a taxi for you first, it's not easy to take a taxi at this time." Lao Li said, "It's windy outside, you put on two extra clothes for your sister!"

If it was something else, Fu Jingsan would definitely refuse immediately - he would never ask others for help if he could do it by himself, let alone owe such a favor to someone he has only known for a long time.But it was probably because Lao Li's good-natured face was so friendly, he nodded for the first time and said "I'm in trouble".

"What are you being polite about? They are all neighbors. I'll go now!"

He turned his head into the cubicle and squatted beside the bed: "Come on, I'll carry you to the hospital."

"It doesn't take three, I can go, and it's not that serious..." "Sister, can you listen to me once?" Fu Jingsan said angrily, "Can't you let me take care of you? I'm not a three-year-old anymore!"

"..." Fu Jing was speechless, panted, put on her shoes, and obediently leaned on her younger brother **Y_Q_Z_W_5_C_O_M**'s back.

Lao Li really helped him a lot, and the taxi was called directly downstairs to their house.

"I'll accompany you there. If there's anything you need, it's easier for you alone." Lao Li said, "Anyway, I'm off work too."

"No need..." "Stop talking nonsense, look at how uncomfortable your sister is!" Lao Li just opened the co-pilot's door and sat in.

Fu Jingsan was in a hurry, and was in no mood to reject this new neighbor who made frantic overtures.

"...It's okay, it's just an ordinary fever, but just in case, let's do a test."

"it is good……"

Fu Jingsan nodded in a daze, took the bill, turned and walked out of the doctor's office.Just like last time, he was dazed by the smell of disinfectant, and his high-hanging heart couldn't help it. . . . Y. Q. Z. W. 5. . . . C***O***M#言,,,情,,,Chinese,,,net calm down.Moreover, this place and this smell will only remind him of his sister's flushed face when she coughed violently, and there is a very small possibility of death.

What Lao Li said is not wrong, it is indeed much better to have more people to help.He went downstairs to pay the fee, and Lao Li accompanied his sister to the infusion room to wait for the water.

Standing in the queue at the payment window, Fu Jingsan stared down at the receipt in his hand. After rushing over, what remained was endless anxiety—he thought of Huo Yunjiang, and remembered that today was the other party's birthday, and he agreed two days ago I'll spend the night with him tonight.

Maybe he can wait for his sister's infusion to finish before going to him, or... In short, there are thousands of ways to solve it, and it's not unsolvable.

It's just that Fu Jingsan remembered that at the end of the winter vacation, beside Huo Yunjiang, he could enjoy the entertainment that he could not afford before, and remembered that he still had the time to think about "like it or not", and suddenly realized that he thought the world too simply.

After removing the icing of love, what presented to him was not sweet candy, but the devastated world of him and his sister.

He hasn't left school yet, and he's already in debt of [-] yuan; he has to take on the task of supporting the family until his sister fully recovers... Even if all this is over, what's next?If he didn't go to college, their family's life would be easier in a short time, but maybe he would struggle to survive at the bottom all his life.

What if he goes to read it?The burden on his sister will have to be carried for another four years.

"...Speak! Do you want to pay the fee or not? Don't delay the people behind you if you don't pay the fee!" Fu Jingsan was awakened by the impatient words in the service window. He handed in the receipt blankly, his arms twitching slightly for some reason.

He clenched his fist deliberately, waiting for the other party to report the amount, and then he handed in the money.

When he returned to the infusion room upstairs, before entering the door, he saw Lao Li handing a cup of hot water to his sister.They were talking, but Fu Jingsan couldn't hear what they were talking about, he only saw Lao Li gesticulating while talking, and his sister laughed before he finished speaking.

Fu Jingsan took a deep breath, forcing herself to suppress her anxiety.

"...I paid the fee." He said, "It should be fine, wait for the test results.... Are you hungry, I'll go buy something to eat, sister, what do you want to eat?"

Lao Li said: "I'll go, Xiaosan, you can stay here with your sister."

"That's so embarrassing..." Fu Jing said softly, "I've already troubled you, Brother Li..."

Lao Li waved his hand casually: "Hey, it's a small matter. Let's drink porridge. If you are sick, drink some porridge to make you feel better."

He walked quickly, not wanting to give the two siblings a chance to reject him.Fu Jingsan watched the nurse push the cart over to give his sister an injection, and silently sat down beside her.

"I made you worry." My sister looked at him, her face was still flushing. "It's really nothing. You think my sister is too fragile."

"What do you want, what should I do." He lowered his eyes and said, "If you have anything, you have to tell me, if you feel uncomfortable, just say, I will accompany you to the hospital, don't hold on, really What... what do you want... I am left alone, what should I do..."

"Okay, okay, I was wrong." Seeing him suffering like that, Fu Jingyi also felt uncomfortable, "I will definitely pay attention to my body when I go back. As for the three of you, just study hard and everything will be fine."

She keeps saying that.

After their mother passed away, she wiped away her tears and said that; when she was a child, she set up a stall under the overpass, and she said that because her teeth chattered from the cold... Now that she was unlucky enough to be infected with such a nasty disease, she still said that.

Fu Jingsan just felt uncomfortable, worse than his own cancer.

It didn't take long for Lao Li to come back with food, but Fu Jingsan gave him money and he refused to take it.The new neighbors not only helped out enthusiastically, but also stayed in the hospital to accompany their siblings—mainly with Fu Jingyi. Old Li Jian was chatty and humorous, which made her smile all over her face.

As time passed, Fu Jingsan began to miss Huo Yunjiang.

He didn't bring out his mobile phone, and there was no way to explain the situation to him, let alone which room in which hotel the other party was waiting for him.When it was almost eight o'clock, he asked Lao Li to borrow his mobile phone, saying that he wanted to make a call; the other party gave him the mobile phone without asking anything, and turned to continue chatting with his sister.

Fu Jingsan said hello and ran to the hospital corridor to make a phone call.

But he just turned on the screen and was stunned - he didn't even know what Huo Yunjiang's phone number was, and he never thought of memorizing that string of numbers.He leaned against the wall in a daze for a while, feeling sorry for Huo Yunjiang, but also feeling that it was outrageous for him to fall in love even though he was struggling with food and clothing.

He stood for seven or eight minutes before returning to the infusion room.

His sister was extremely sensitive to his emotions, and immediately asked, "Sister, do you still have something to do? If you have something to do, you should go back first. I'm fine. My fever has subsided."

"Yes," Lao Li continued, "If you have something to do, go back first. I just happened to accompany your sister back home."

Fu Jingsan shook his head: "I'll go back together after you hang the water."
