night escape

·

Suddenly a strong wind made the branches outside the window tremble.The weather forecast on TV said that the first cold air in Pingnan winter is coming, and it will be accompanied by heavy rain at that time, reminding the citizens to pay attention to the cold and keep warm.

Six-year-old Jiang Hengfu was lying beside the hospital bed, holding a drawing book and coloring. After working hard for a long time, he finally held it up to Jiang Qiu who was on the hospital bed: "Look, mom, can I draw well?"

Jiang Qiu looked out of the window for a long time, from the beginning of the wind to the rain.She didn't turn her head until Jiang Heng called her at this moment.After nearly ten rounds of chemotherapy, she has become extremely skinny and emaciated.But she still tried to pull herself together, smiled, and asked her son, "What is this?"

Jiang Heng introduced his work in an orderly manner: "This is a big house, the one holding a stick is my uncle, the one wearing a beautiful dress is my mother, and this child is me. I also drew a puppy for myself, mother...etc. Hello, shall we have a puppy?"

Jiang Qiu saw the yellow puppy on the drawing paper, nodded and said, "Okay, mom promises you, when mom is well, I will raise a puppy to play with you every day."

"Okay! But Mom, do you know where Uncle has gone? Why didn't you see him today?" Jiang Heng buried his head on Jiang Qiu's quilt, rubbing his head like a puppy.

Jiang Qiu stroked Jiang Heng's small head, and said weakly, "I'll see my uncle soon, Jiang Heng, you must treat your uncle well in the future, it's not easy for him."

Jiang Heng raised his head, looked at Jiang Qiu with big ignorant eyes, and said: "Okay, Mom, I will definitely, I promise you, when I grow up, I will take you and uncle to live in a big house, and... and mine puppy."

"Okay." Jiang Qiu kissed his son's forehead with tears in his eyes.

The simplest ideal of a five or six-year-old child is to live in the best house with his family.Jiang Qiu hopes that Jiang Heng will always be pure and kind, and not face the darkness and sadness in the world, but she will never have the chance to see it again.

In the early hours of that night, Jiang Qiu passed away in his sleep.

"Did you get better after so many chemotherapy treatments?"

Xie Li shook his head, he lowered his head, his hair covered half of his face, making it difficult to see his eyes clearly.

"It was already getting better, but after a few months, the cancer cells suddenly spread, and there was nothing I could do."

"Then why weren't you by her side at that time?"

Xie Li raised his hand to take off his glasses, flung them on the bed sheet, closed his eyes and rubbed between his brows: "Because someone is willing to donate their corneas to me, we all know this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity... Jiang Qiu told me, let me Go to the operation, come back after the operation and take her around, she doesn't want to stay in the hospital anymore..."

"I confirmed with the doctor that she could last half a year at most. But...why didn't she wait for me? On the day she left, I was undergoing a vision recovery operation in another hospital. When I recovered from anesthesia When I woke up... I realized that she was no longer there." Xie Li's voice was a little choked, "Did you know? Just after the corneal transplant operation, the eyes are not allowed to shed tears. Tears contain water and weak acid. Infection of the wound leading to transplantation, if there are too many tears, it is likely to cause keratitis, and it is more likely to directly lead to the failure of corneal transplantation..."

"After I got off the hospital bed, I went directly to Jiang Heng, and I accompanied him to send Jiang Qiu away. My eyes were covered with white gauze, but I still couldn't see anything. During those few days, I heard Jiang Heng crying. , heard many people cry, but I can't cry..."

Xie Li blocked his eyes with his arms, he pursed his lips, Liang Ye knew he was sad.

Liang Ye's outstretched hand was hanging in the air. He really wanted to hug Xie Li, but when he dropped his hand, he just patted Xie Li's shoulder a few times.He said softly: "Someone told me that dead relatives will become stars in the sky, watching people on the earth forever, bless them healthy and long life. Jiang Qiu must be like this, she hopes You are getting better and better, instead of living in guilt."

Xie Li moved his arm, looked at Liang Ye and said seriously: "When a person dies, he is a corpse, and when he is burned, it becomes a pile of calcium, phosphorus, oxygen and carbon compounds."

Liang Ye smiled: "Tsk, this is not because you are unhappy and wants to comfort you! Why is Dr. Xie so serious? It really ruins the atmosphere..."

"I don't need comfort." Xie Li said lightly, "However, thank you."

Liang Ye didn't answer immediately after hearing this, but just stuffed a pillow behind Xie Li's waist and let him lean on it: "But you haven't said why your relationship with Jiang Heng became so bad afterwards."

After this reminder, Xie Li suddenly stiffened like a conditioned reflex, and some past events that he didn't want to recall appeared in his mind.

At the beginning, Lu Qiming lent money to Jiang Qiu's medical treatment, which really helped a lot. Without his money, Jiang Qiu might not be able to survive for a few months.Not only these, but even Xie Li's vision restoration surgery was paid for by him. At that time, Xie Li was very grateful to him, thinking that he had met a rare and good person.

But after dealing with Jiang Qiu's funeral, Lu Qiming immediately sent someone to pick him up.

"I'll take you to the hospital to recuperate. Your eyes need to be checked every day." That's what Lu Qiming said at the time.

At that time, Jiang Heng was being fostered at Feng Lan's house, and Xie Li had no right to take him away, so he planned to come back to pick him up after the recovery period.

But when he removed the white veil in front of him, the first thing he saw was not a glare of light, but a dark house.The house was full of surveillance cameras, Xie Li couldn't remember whether it was more than a dozen or dozens of them -- he was blindfolded and lived under the surveillance of Lu Qiming!

Xie Li couldn't remember whether his first reaction when he knew this was shock or panic.He hated himself for being blind before, for not seeing the complexity of the great world.He supported the edge of the bed, his legs gradually weakened until he fell to the ground.

"Why...why do you want to monitor me?!" Xie Li broke down and yelled angrily. He lasted for a long time in this state, probably until his voice became hoarse before someone came out to force him up.

Lu Qiming said: "A Li, don't be afraid, I didn't do anything to hurt you, did I?"

"I ask you why!" Xie Li yelled almost hysterically, "Why did you treat me like this?!"

"You'll know later." Lu Qiming was still smiling, as refined as a noble gentleman, as if monitoring others was as common as watching a movie.

Xie Li didn't stay in that dark house all the time, he later moved to a closed villa owned by Lu Qiming, and he lived in that room full of surveillance cameras for nearly two years.He wasn't sure which city or location he was in, and he couldn't get in touch with the outside world—he was completely under Lu Qiming's control.

Lu Qiming is very good at handling people's hearts, he will occasionally reveal some information about Jiang Heng to Xie Li, this is the motivation for him to persist in living.

"A Li? A Li!" Liang Ye shook his shoulders and asked worriedly, "Why did you suddenly turn pale? What's wrong with you?"

"No...it's nothing." Xie Li brushed his hand away, and reached out to touch the coldness of his forehead.

"What did you think of?" Liang Ye felt that his state was very wrong.

Xie Li had acid regurgitation in his stomach, as if he didn't hear what he said, he got out of bed and rummaged through his shoulder bag.Trembling, he dug out a box of medicine from inside, poured a glass of water and swallowed a few pills.

"What medicine are you taking?" Liang Ye grabbed the medicine box and found that there was nothing written on it.

Xie Li put down his water glass and glanced at the person next to him: "Don't be nervous, Officer Liang, it's just an ordinary sedative, nothing special."

"Why do you want to take this medicine?" Liang Ye tightly held the transparent medicine box in his hand, looking at him full of doubts.

Xie Li smiled weakly: "There is a lot of pressure at work, so eat a little once in a while."

His state is not a manifestation of work pressure at all, Liang Ye obviously does not believe his nonsense: "Are you serious?"

Xie Li felt extremely tired and had no strength to push him away.After a while, Xie Li raised his head and smiled weakly: "I haven't finished talking yet, Officer Liang, don't you want to hear it?"

In front of such a fragile Xie Li, Liang Ye's anger was useless, so he had no choice but to let go, and sighed: "Say it."
