Two flowers bloom, one dead branch

The day Jiang Yuchu went to Gu Liwen's house, he was told that the shadow was missing.

Shadow's special missions for so many years have never gone wrong, only this time he suddenly lost contact, and his last contact before his disappearance was the current chief director of respiratory medicine at the First Hospital—Jiang Yuchu's former master's supervisor, now the superior.

Shadow once contacted Jiang Yuchu, and sent a message to an anonymous number he used, which read: Brother Jiang, your teacher has a relationship with Dou's Medical Technology, making huge profits, and even participating in drug trading. Do you know about this?

But he didn't know that Jiang Yuchu was already dead in name at that time.

There are not many connections between the special feelings. The two lost contact after the first mission. The shadow is also a dead horse as a living horse doctor. He even told Jiang Yuchu that he did this business to chase his wife.

When he listened, his eyeballs almost popped out, and he had a refreshing expression on his face.

Maybe it's the fledgling plot, no one treats Shadow well since he was a child, and Jiang Yuchu's rescue when he was in the quagmire is almost equal to half of his reborn parents to him.

This child who grew up savagely in the market has his own etiquette and morality. Those who believe in him will always trust him to death.

Shadow Teqing did a good job. Few people would doubt him. The evidence handed over to the police was accurate. The only accident this time took his life.

The director participated in the Dou's Pharmaceutical Company established by Mr. Dou, occupying 30% of the shares. During this period, he used various means to obtain huge profits, and sometimes even used it for team building. When Mr. Dou found out that he had advanced cancer, he began to clean up the company and planned to leave it to his son. It is a clean industry, who knows that it doesn’t matter if you don’t check it. Once you check it, you find that the medicines imported by the pharmaceutical company are abnormal and the profits are too much. He was shocked and went to the director to ask for details, only to find that his son was in private contact with the director. The company's cover-up imports a large number of drugs to obtain huge profits. There was a dispute between Mr. Dou and his son, and he was hospitalized with a gas disease. The cancer progressed rapidly. all shares on the

Shadow exposed his identity in the previous contact with Mr. Dou, was murdered and silenced, and was transported to the morgue in the East Campus of the First Hospital through the director, but he hadn't had time to deal with it.

After Mr. Dou's death, his son and the director had to tear their skins apart due to interest disputes. The dispute in the corridor was heard by Dou Meng. She didn't listen much, but every sentence was terrible.

"Where is the body?"

"East courtyard, don't worry, no one will go. When this matter is done, you should quickly wash the balance according to the backup. After washing, dispose of it as soon as possible. The old and new buildings will be opened soon. It's too dangerous to put paper things there."

"This is your business. I didn't participate in your father's business. What's more, you said that it's dark under the lights, and the most dangerous place is the safest place."

"Don't talk to me in this yin and yang tone, if the fish dies and the net breaks, no one will be left behind!"

Jiang Yuchu has a skill, that is, when he doesn't want to be emotional, he can rationally withdraw his sensibility and calmly analyze the current rules and regulations.

For example, now, he is watching the notifications on his phone that are gradually getting less popular.

"The interest dispute between Dou's pharmaceutical company and the department director of a tertiary hospital, is it a dark case or a dead end?"

"Shocked, the hospital actually raised a multi-millionaire? Where did the taxpayers' money go!"

"The ten-year-old patient deliberately set fire to the hospital for revenge! He has been detained and is being dealt with!"

The bright red exclamation marks hit the retina continuously, Jiang Yuchu turned off the phone, squeezed the space between his eyebrows, ignored the line of sight next to him, closed his eyes, but couldn't fall asleep anyway.

All the food was sitting on the side, it was already cold.

He didn't mean to lose face on purpose, he had to eat two mouthfuls of something he bought with good intentions, but as soon as he swallowed it, his throat burned and hurt, and his stomach twisted. I couldn't hold it back anymore, lying on the edge of the bed and vomited it all up until only acid water remained.

He was leaning on the hospital bed with a weary expression, his chestnut hair was a little dull at this time, his face was even paler, weak and unseemly.

Gu Changze looked at him for a long time before slowly opening his mouth: "I can take you to see your teacher."

Jiang Yuchu didn't even open his eyes, the end of his eyes drooped listlessly, looking extremely tired, he didn't make a sound, just nodded slowly.

That afternoon, he was pushed out of the ward by a wheelchair. Gu Changze seemed to be afraid that he would be cold, and covered him with a pile of clothes. he went.

Jiang Yuchu didn't say a word on the road, and the whole person seemed unusually silent.

When they arrived at the place, Gu Changze was waiting outside. Jiang Yuchu pushed the wheelchair in and saw the director behind the glass.

The two looked at each other through the glass, each silent, and finally the director said first: "On the way I was brought back, I heard someone vaguely ask, 'How is Jiang Yuchu, have you woken up', the name is the same Not many, it really is you."

"Teacher," every time Jiang Yuchu uttered a word, his throat felt as if a knife had been scraped across his throat, and the voice he made no longer had the original cool feeling, but was mixed with the sound of sandpaper slowly grinding across the ground, and the smell of blood lingered in his throat. The space spread, but he continued to speak stubbornly, as if these words had been held in his heart for a long time, and suddenly he found an outlet, and poured them all out in one go.

"When I first admitted you as a graduate student, you asked me what was the most important thing during my graduate study. I said it was studying, publishing articles, doing experiments, and rotating well in the department, but you just looked at me and shook your head with a full face. Kindly say that these are secondary, the most important thing is two words - to be a human being."

Jiang Yuchu coughed suddenly, and hurriedly found a tissue to cover his mouth. When he finished coughing, he glanced at it and found that it was all bright red.

Calmly, he crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into the trash can. His eyes fell on the gray hair and the wrinkles at the corners of the eyes of the person opposite, and he continued as if nothing happened: "I knew I was right with the teacher at that time. I think the doctor also I have to continue reading yours, because even if my supervisor can't guide me to develop SCI or conduct experiments, he can still teach me to be a human being."

Jiang Yuchu smiled, and there was a faint gleam in his eyes. The trick of pulling away from his feelings suddenly seemed to be a bit ineffective, but he still felt the uncomfortable force that entangled him endlessly.

"When my mother passed away, you patted me on the shoulder and said it's okay. You will still be there in the future. You joked that being a mother is not bad, and you asked me to ignore the graduation defense. At that time, I thought it was worth meeting you in this life." gone."

Jiang Yuchu was suddenly speechless, he took a deep breath, and then slowly let it out, clenching his teeth tightly, swallowing the bloody smell, staring at the back of his veined hand, After a long time, he trembled and asked unwillingly: "Why?"

You are already a director, what more do you want?Why do those things?

Fake public affairs for personal gain, enriching one's own pocket, secretly cooperating with music, participating in buying/murdering/killing/people, and even getting involved with drugs, any one of these is enough for him to bear.

Jiang Yuchu closed his eyes, and asked again as if talking to himself: "Why?"

His hands were wrapped in gauze, and his movements were a little strenuous. He slowly unfolded a piece of paper for the director to see, and there was only a big word "人" written on it.

"You once said that writing is easy, but it is not so easy to stand up to the sky. Only when you have your feet firmly can you become a person, and you can live up to this life."

Jiang Yuchu's gaze fell on the director's face all the time. He saw the director looking at the writing in his hand, and after a long while, he smiled softly, as if letting go of some of the biggest entanglements.

"Go and see your wife when you have nothing to do. Although our western medicine does not pay attention to inheritance like Chinese medicine, we are at least a teacher and a student."

The director's eyes returned to the usual gentle smile, and he looked at the junior with a satisfied look, "And your father, go and see when you are free, he has moved, and he hasn't been in touch with you, so he found me here I'm afraid you won't find him when you go back. Your father thought you were angry with him, and you thought he didn't forgive you, but family members, why can't you open up? Don't worry, I said you were sent out to study, you have to It will take a few years to come back."

Jiang Yuchu stared blankly at the director, unable to say a word.

The director tightened his grip on the receiver and continued: "Don't blame yourself, you did the right thing. Doing what you want doesn't mean it's right, and being cautious and restrained doesn't mean it's wrong. Do what you want and what you think is right. Xiao Jiang, when you left, you didn't Tell me where to go, but it can be seen that in the past three years, you have grown very well, and I like you very much."

For a moment, Jiang Yuchu wanted to yell at him and ask him that if you don't explain, I will believe anything you explain, but why don't you explain?

The director sighed, he seemed to have foreseen his end a long time ago, he seemed to be ready to die calmly, maybe he had already made this preparation when he took the wrong first step.

He even lowered his voice: "I don't regret it, it's just that the method was wrong from the beginning, but I still don't regret it. Without that windfall, your wife would not have survived smoothly. I am content. But there is one thing, I don’t use research group funds.”

He seemed to be afraid that Jiang Yuchu would not believe it, so he emphasized it again: "I am useless, that is reserved for the research group, and you also know that doing experiments is not like other things. Get the results of the experiment."

The director smiled even more heartily, with a calm expression: "I was still counting on you to post something on Cell or Nature, but when the time comes, whoops actually posted an article on Cell, who used to be my apprentice, what a face. "

"But the sword is slanted, one move is wrong, and the whole game is lost. The only thing I am lucky is that your teacher survived."

Jiang Yuchu lowered his head, he felt like a child who did something wrong, he suddenly became at a loss when facing his parents.

"Didn't you notice that there was a letter of introduction inside?" the director asked him with a smile.

Jiang Yuchu looked over with red eyes, and the director continued: "At that time, I was in a hurry to pack up. Who knew that I also put the letter of introduction I wrote for you into the drawer. You take it and go to the top director of respiratory medicine in China. Accept you as a doctor. I still have some influence, old man, and my students are all excellent, who would dare not want it. "

Jiang Yuchu finally couldn't bear it any longer. He obviously did a morally and legally correct thing, but he couldn't express the pain in his heart. He was about to lose another person who was very important to him. .

A teacher for one day, a father for life.

He finally managed to catch his breath, but it was very sudden and painful, as if he had been hit in the chest.

"teacher……"

When it was time for the visit, the director hurriedly took out a brooch from his pocket and handed it over from the only semicircular opening.

"It belongs to that child. I wear it to remind myself of the mistakes I made. I wanted to find a better cemetery for him, but when a person dies, no matter how good the cemetery is, it's of no use. I'm a doctor. I never thought I would have blood on my hands."

The prison guard came over, Jiang Yuchu was holding the receiver, his vision blurred.

The director smiled at him. This smile was like when he had just passed the re-examination for exemption many years ago. The director looked at him and suddenly smiled, gentle and kind, with praise and expectation.

Jiang Yuchu saw the director mouth silently.

you are right.

The author has something to say: No, I am too uncomfortable.The director is wrong, he has been wrong since he took that step, both morally and legally.But I still cried, and there was no pile of paper when I cried.I feel uncomfortable when I cry.It was the same when writing shadows. When I smiled and told Jiang Yuchu in my dream that he was leaving, I seemed to really see that young man let go of his last wish and calmly went to the sky.Ouch, my tears are pouring out.

Cell and Nature are the top authoritative journals in medical journals. They use English because... In hospitals, even medical students rarely speak Chinese "Nature" or "Cell". They are even more mixed in Chinese and English, and professional terms and nouns often burst out a string of English. (It’s just English with a possible accent...)
