The actor is sick, I have no medicine
Chapter 54
Before the bus drove up to the mountainside where the Seventh Courtyard was located, it was blocked at the intersection of the ramp.
The rain is getting heavier.
Unlike midsummer thunderstorms, which come and go quickly, autumn rains often last all night.
In order to avoid the danger of landslides, the road up the mountain was closed to traffic early.A group of more than a dozen medical staff could only get out of the car, holding umbrellas with difficulty, and walked halfway up the mountain by stepping on the muddy water on the road.
There are more nurses on the night shift tonight, and there are not enough umbrellas.Lu Danggui and several male colleagues simply gave up their umbrellas to the girls, put their coats on their heads, and ran up the hill in a hurry.
When rushing into the office building, Lu Danggui was drenched all over.He had just received a cup of hot water in the office, and before he could drink it in his hand, he heard a burst of noisy voices from the corridor outside the door.
"It's thundering, go take the stairs, hurry—"
Putting on a white coat and walking out of the lounge, he saw several medical staff and security guards rushing out of the elevator and rushing upstairs.
Following at the end of the line was the head nurse of the fifth department. When she saw Lu Danggui standing at the door and looking in this direction, she suddenly stopped and strode towards the office.
"Doctor Lu, it's not good—"
The head nurse was full of anxiety. She clicked on the phone screen and handed it to Lu Danggui, "A patient in A07 slipped out of the ward when we were changing shifts, and now he is standing alone on the roof. not come down..."
A05 to A09 are all the wards that Lu Danggui will inspect when he is on duty at night. Hearing what the head nurse said, his eyes froze, he quickly took his phone, and clicked on the big picture on the screen.
The photo was taken by a person standing on the bottom of the building.It was raining heavily at night, and the picture was not very clear. All I could see was a figure in a hospital gown standing in front of the railing on the roof, with both hands raised high, as if performing some weird ritual in the heavy rain.
Returning the mobile phone to the head nurse, Lu Danggui ran a few steps back to the consulting room:
"Isn't the door of the roof locked all the time? How did the patient get up there?"
After tapping the keyboard a few times quickly, he called up the information of patient A07 from the system.
Female, 37 years old, with recurrent depressive disorder, has been admitted for the second time.
The head nurse's tone was anxious with some complaints:
"A yellow rainstorm warning in the afternoon. Colleagues from the security department went to the rooftop to check the solar installations. They forgot to lock the door when they left..."
"Did you call the fire brigade in the area?"
"Called, the fire brigade said that the car has already been dispatched, but because of the heavy rain and the serious congestion of the national highway, it will not be able to get on for a while—"
Before the head nurse could finish speaking, Lu Danggui had already taken out a flashlight from the cabinet, picked up the patient information printed in front of the printer, turned around and walked out the door.
"Doctor Lu—"
"It's too late to wait for their words," Lu Danggui leaned against the doorknob with his back, motioning for her to follow quickly, "Follow me!"
Heavy rain washed over the city, and dark clouds covered half of the moon.
A group of people rushed up the stairs to the top floor, and found that a group of people had already gathered in front of the outer door leading to the roof.Even the vice president who was on duty was startled, and stood in the middle of the crowd with a stern expression.
The security guards held flashlights and were shouting at the woman standing in front of the railing from a distance.However, the rain was too heavy, and the sound of the wind was mixed with continuous muffled thunder. The woman didn't seem to hear the anxious cries from behind.
Seeing that Lu Dang was returning, the vice president hurriedly pushed aside the busy crowd and strode towards him.
"Dean," Lu Danggui said with a serious expression on his face, "This patient was just admitted to the hospital this morning due to a recurrence, and he hasn't taken oral medicine yet."
Hearing Lu Danggui's words, the vice president's expression changed slightly.
Recurrent patients are usually sent to the hospital temporarily because of the acute onset of the disease and more obvious symptoms.The onset period of such patients is short, but the risk factor of suicide is greatly increased, which is a difficult situation.
If it is a patient who has been hospitalized for a long time, it may be possible to negotiate several suitable persuasion plans according to the degree of development of the disease.
But patients with acute attacks can't, most of them can't listen to any advice from doctors.
In other words, the female patient's mind has been occupied by strong suicidal thoughts, and she may jump off the roof at any time.
Psychiatrists are all professionally trained, so they naturally have corresponding strategies to deal with such situations, but——
"I go."
Putting down the flashlight in his hand, Lu Danggui held his breath, turned his head and said to the several security guards beside him, "Please stay at the door and don't show your face. Once I make a move, you will come up to help."
Looking at the thin figure of the young doctor in front of him, the chief of the security department said worriedly: "But Doctor Lu, we just found out that this patient has a strong sense of resistance, and he is also strong enough to push away the roof with one hand." Iron gate, you're afraid..."
Over the shoulders of the crowd, Lu Danggui saw the female patient turn her head and look at them in the rain, with a relieved smile on her face.
It's too late!
Rolling up the cuffs of his white coat, he pulled away the two security guards standing in front of him, and rushed into the rain!
Seeing someone in the crowd running towards her rapidly, the woman's face was slightly startled, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.
She turned around, tightly grasped the railing at shoulder height with both hands, and slowly squatted down on the spot.
Just let go of your hands, just relax your body—
"do not move!"
A voice shouted from behind, "Wait!"
In the torrential rain, the woman's wet hair on the sideburns was tightly pressed against her chin. She turned her head again and blinked at the young doctor behind her.
Then, she let go.
The body fell down slowly, with both arms spread out in mid-air, like a wild goose spreading its wings in the wind and rain, waiting for a migratory bird to return to heaven and earth.
The woman closed her eyes, quietly waiting for the moment when the center of gravity would drop and everything would return to oneness.
In just a second, the powerlessness of weightlessness suddenly disappeared.
The rain washed over the woman's cheeks, she raised her head high, and squinted her eyes in the heavy rain.
In front of the railing, someone reached out and took her hand firmly.
The young doctor was completely drenched by the rain, and the corners of his white coat rolled up in a curl, dancing wildly in the wind.
His entire upper body has gone beyond the railing, one arm is holding her wrist, the other hand is tightly grasping the edge of the railing, his knuckles have faintly turned blue and white due to excessive force.
The weight on his hands became heavier and heavier, and a tearing pain ran along his wrists and hit his elbows.
Lu Danggui's eyes turned black from the pain, and he almost lost feeling in his entire arm.
Hearing the chaotic footsteps getting closer behind him, he gritted his teeth and forced out a word in his throat: "Quick——"
There was a faint smell of rust in the air, and a few drops of bright red fell in front of the railing, which were washed away by the rain in an instant.
Arms clasped tightly in front of the iron railing, the rain-shielding partition was blown up by the wind, scratching the back of Lu Danggui's hand.The wound opened all the way up the wrist, leaving an obvious bloodstain on his skin.
A few seconds later, several security guards rushed forward from behind Lu Danggui at the same time, each grabbed the woman's arm, and dragged her upper body into the roof.
In less than half a minute, the woman who half-jumped out of the roof was pulled up by everyone.
Seeing this, the medical staff standing by the door rushed into the rain with their first aid kits in their hands.The emergency bed that had just been dispatched was parked outside the door. After the medical staff finished sedating the patient, the patient would be transported back to the emergency room for the next step of examination.
Surrounded by crowds, the woman lay on the cold floor blankly, allowing the medical staff beside her to lift her up and inject sedative drugs into her arm.
The sedative gradually began to work in the body, the woman turned her head and looked out of the crowd in a daze.
A figure in a white coat was leaning against the railing of the roof, his head bowed wearily.A small nurse took gauze and bandages from the first aid kit and was helping the man with the horrific wound on his wrist.
She raised her hand, only to feel that the palm of her hand was sticky and wet, full of red liquid.
The blood that flowed from the man's wrist soaked her palm.
He wants to live even more than himself.
How could there be such a person in this world?
Before losing consciousness under the influence of drugs, the woman thought to herself.
The rain gradually subsided, and a sound of horns pierced the silent night. The road at the foot of the mountain was cleared, and the fire truck finally arrived at the mental hospital.
Supported by the little nurse to stand up from the railing, Lu Danggui moved his strained arm and the hideous gauze wound on his wrist, and couldn't help baring his teeth.
This should count as a work injury...
I don't know if the higher up will reimburse me.
After taking the umbrella handed by the nurse, he turned around slowly and glanced at the railing in front of the roof, where the female patient was about to jump off.
As psychiatrists, although they have been taught by their predecessors since they were in medical school, they have to fully understand and empathize with patients with mental illness.
But facing such a situation, he was still exhausted and felt uncomfortable.
Just standing on a high place and looking down, he would feel a little scared.What a desperate person is, what kind of things he has to go through, and what kind of struggles he has made in his heart, to stand on such a high position without hesitation.
Looking through the railing, looking at the rainy night not far away, Lu Danggui's eyes suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Across the high wall filled with electric grids, on the top floor of the closed ward opposite, the window was still lit as usual.
However, that pair of curtains that were always tightly closed was pulled open a gap at some point.
A slender and tall figure stood by the window, motionless for a long time.It was as if he was quietly looking at the place where he was standing on the roof.
The steps under his feet paused slightly, and Lu Danggui stood in place for a while holding an umbrella.
Not long after, he turned and left the rooftop with his colleagues behind him.
Lu Danggui didn't know that this was the second time he saved a person who stood on the roof.
--
The vice president went to ask the nurses and security guards who were on duty today to be held accountable.Lu Danggui rejected the director's proposal to let him go home to rest, and went downstairs with his colleagues, carrying the lunch box to the rest room, ready to warm up the dinner before eating.
Hanging the rain-soaked clothes on the back of the chair, he sat in front of the table and sneezed twice.
Rubbing his reddened nose with his hands, he decided to make himself a Radix Banlangen as a hot drink.
After blowing on the air conditioner for a while, when the clothes on his body were almost dry, the one-armed hero Lu Danggui picked up his chopsticks and began to fight wits and courage with the egg fried rice in the lunch box.
Just halfway through eating, he heard a noise coming from the corridor.
What happened again?
Putting down the chopsticks and opening the door of the lounge, Lu Danggui found a middle-aged man standing at the stairs not far away.
The man held a little girl in his hand and held another in his arm.
Seeing Lu Danggui walked out of the waiting room, the head nurse quickly turned her head and winked at him desperately, meaning to let Dr. Lu avoid it for a while, and they will take care of it.
No one in the room expected that the middle-aged man would point to Lu Danggui's face as soon as he saw him, and start yelling in a local accent, "I'm just here to look for him, why did you lie to me that he's not here?"
The head nurse had a guilty smile on her face: "Dr. Lu is not on duty during the day, and he really didn't know about the hospital he just arrived at—"
Before she could finish speaking, the middle-aged man completely ignored the obstruction of several nurses around him, dragged the crying little girl, and walked straight towards Doctor Lu.
Recognizing that the young man in front of him is the doctor surnamed Lu on the hospital bulletin board, the middle-aged man said with a grim expression:
"Doctor Lu, my daughter-in-law was just sent to the hospital this morning, and you called tonight, saying that she is going to jump off a building, what's the matter?"
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Lu Danggui frowned.
The female patient just now belonged to Ward A07, and the attending doctor registered on the diagnosis form was indeed herself.This middle-aged man probably also came to the door directly after reading the doctor's information written on the diagnosis sheet.
Turning his eyes from the face of the middle-aged man to the shivering little girl in his arms, Lu Danggui said softly:
"Mr. Li, your wife has given birth to four children in three years, and her physical and mental conditions are not very satisfactory. Since you have already developed obvious symptoms of postpartum depression, why do you let her continue to prepare for pregnancy?"
When asked bluntly by Lu Danggui, the expression of the middle-aged man suddenly changed.
Handing the child in his arms to the older girl, he stepped forward and grabbed Lu Danggui by the neckline.
"This is my own family business, can you fucking control it?"
Staring at the fearless young doctor in front of him, the middle-aged man's tone was full of threats, "I'm just going to ask, if something happened to my daughter-in-law today, can you afford it?"
The back of his head hit the lounge door behind him, and a sudden pain came from the back of his head.Being tightly gripped by the neckline by the middle-aged man, Lu Danggui smiled instead of anger:
"Mr. Li, medical trouble is now under sentence, please pay attention to your behavior."
He naturally knew in his heart why the man came all the way to the hospital in such a thunderstorm.
There are so many children in the family, so the expenses are naturally not small, and the wife is admitted to the hospital again, which costs money every day.It would be a good way if he could use the incident of committing suicide as an excuse to severely blackmail him for going to the hospital.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was tense, the head nurse sneaked downstairs a long time ago and called the security guard from the security office to come up.
Through the glass door, the middle-aged man was also a little scared when he saw several security guards in uniform coming from behind.
He loosened Lu Danggui's collar, but just before turning around, he was spitting on Lu Danggui's face.
"Doctor Lu!"
The head nurse exclaimed, and the security guards who followed her were also stunned, not knowing what to do for a while.
"..."
Pulling out a tissue from the pocket of his white coat, Lu Danggui raised his hand and wiped away the stains on his face little by little.His brows were lowered, and there was no expression on his face.
"I'm fine," Lu Danggui put his hands in his pockets while throwing the tissue into the trash can in the corner, and said softly, "The patient should have woken up, take Mr. Li to A07."
Everyone in the corridor had already left, Lu Danggui turned around and walked towards the bathroom at the end of the corridor.
After entering the bathroom, he turned on the faucet with his uninjured hand and washed his face briefly. He raised his head and stared blankly at the figure in the mirror.
For those who are familiar and close, he may be a little irritable and loves to lose his temper.But in front of outsiders, he is actually always tolerant.
He has always maintained such an illusion in front of others, he never expected that anyone would notice his true feelings, even if he asked a question out of concern.
It wasn't until that night a few years ago that someone noticed something was wrong with him for the first time.
The man was sitting in a wheelchair in the backyard, looking at him indifferently:
[Why bother? 】
The dark clouds dispersed, and the moonlight sprinkled on the porcelain wall of the bathroom along the gap of the ventilation window.
Wet water droplets trickled down the ends of the hair, mist filled the mirror surface, and the figures in the mirror gradually became blurred.
Standing quietly in front of the pool for a while, Lu Danggui wiped off the water stains on his face, and went downstairs without looking back.
--
Since he came to work in the Seventh Hospital, this was the first time Lu Danggui went to the top floor of the closed ward.
He had made many excuses and reasons for himself, and he had walked into this elevator every time, but he never had the courage to press that button.
It was dark and all house rounds were over.
The corridor in the closed ward was also empty, except for the voice-activated lights on the top of the corridor and the wire-lined gate at the end of the corridor, there was no other light source on the entire floor.
Walking out of the elevator door, Lu Danggui hesitated for a moment, but still took a step and walked towards the door at the end of the corridor.In the empty corridor, the sound of his footsteps was particularly abrupt.
All the way to the end of the corridor, Lu Danggui stopped in front of the door of the closed ward.
It was already past two o'clock in the morning, and the person locked inside should have rested long ago.
Not wanting to disturb the rest of the person inside, he raised his hand and stood at the door for a long time, but Lu Danggui still didn't knock on the door in front of him.
He didn't want to go back to the office and deal with the care and condolences of his colleagues one after another.And I don't want to spend the long night in a cubicle in the lounge with just my clothes on.
Although separated by a door, there is a harbor where he can put everything down and stop temporarily.
Sighing, Lu Danggui turned his back and slowly sat on the ground leaning against the door of the ward.
Holding his curled knees with both hands, he pressed the weight of his entire upper body against the door of the ward behind him, and gradually closed his eyes.
Just as he adjusted his sitting posture, there was a very slight sound of footsteps on the side of the door.
The footsteps came closer and closer, and finally stopped at the door.
"Doctor Lu, is that you?"
An indifferent male voice came faintly from the ward.
The drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, and Lu Danggui lowered his eyelids and remained silent.
He didn't know how Xing Xuan recognized him, and he didn't want to ask.
Too many things happened today, he was too tired, his upper and lower eyelids were so sleepy that they were fighting.
No one spoke, and there was only a long silence and silence in the air.
After a while, there was a rustling of cloth behind the door.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Danggui heard Xing Xuan's voice coming from the back of his head, very close to him:
"Good evening, Doctor Lu."
The door of the closed ward was locked and could not be opened from the inside.
Xing Xuan simply sat on the ground with his back against the door.
They were separated only by a wire door.
Not knowing what to say to the people inside, Lu Danggui deliberated in his mind for a while, and then tentatively opened his mouth:
"What happened on the rooftop tonight... did you see it?"
"Ah."
said the man at the door.
There is a long distance between the two buildings, this person should not have seen his injury.
After struggling for a while, Lu Danggui still made up his mind that he was not going to tell Xing Xuan that he had made a big gash in his hand.
"Does it hurt?"
Xing Xuan asked suddenly.
"..."
The heartbeat stopped for a moment, Lu Danggui slid her throat, and said unnaturally:
"It's--it's okay, little injury."
He didn't expect that Xing Xuan really saw everything in his eyes.
"……And you,"
Lu Danggui blurted out subconsciously, "Does it hurt?"
The current MEC and ECT technologies are much more advanced than those of previous years. The stimulation time brought by the electric current is very short, and with the assistance of anesthesia, the probability of convulsions has been greatly reduced.
However, these steps still cause a certain amount of fear and distress to the patient due to the need for muscle relaxant injections prior to treatment.
He originally wanted to ask this person tactfully, how is the recent treatment and whether it is effective, but he did not expect to be able to follow the conversation.
Xing Xuan smiled.
His laughter was very light, soft, soft, like a feather flirting across the tip of his heart, making his chest itchy badly.
He said, "As long as you think about Dr. Lu, the pain will stop."
"..."
Standing up straight from the door, the sleepiness in Lu Danggui's mind immediately dissipated.
I am!
He was completely taken aback.
Is it possible that the instrument treatment is really effective? !
Can a person with such a severe alexithymia say such obscene words? ?
Getting up from the door, in line with the principle of taking advantage of the victory and pursuing the pursuit, Lu Danggui hurriedly brought up another topic, wanting to test the healing effect of this person.
Unexpectedly, after finishing that sentence, Xing Xuan returned to the mode of asking and answering, and all replies should not exceed two words.
His tone was still cold and indifferent, not as gentle as before.It seemed that such a short sentence had exhausted all the emotional cells of this person.
In the middle of talking about various topics, Lu Danggui suddenly remembered the song he heard on TV on the way to work tonight.
He turned his head, pulled his entire upper body in front of the door, and asked seriously:
"Xing Xuan, do you remember when you were hospitalized in the affiliated hospital, did you listen to a song for me? You said, it was the demo tape of your new song—"
In the ward, Xing Xuan's voice paused slightly:
"... Down the Road."
"you know?"
Xing Xuan's answer was somewhat beyond Lu Danggui's expectations.
Now, he was even more puzzled.
Now that Xing Xuan knew the name of this song, did he sell this song to others? Did he know that the singer named Bie Hehong sang this song and won the Galaxy Grand Prize with it? record.
The person at the other end of the door did not speak for a long time.
Xing Xuan raised his head and looked at the window next to the hospital bed, and the moon-star-sparse night sky outside the railing.
The moonlight is beautiful, and the soul of love is within reach.
The barbed wire separated the two people on the other side. Although there was a door between them, he could feel the beating heart of that person.
Downtheroad, the distant road.
This song was originally written for you.
After a while, Lu Danggui heard Xing Xuan ask, "Do you want to hear me sing?"
The author has something to say: I wish everyone good health, good health and a bright future for the Dragon Boat Festival~~

Thanks to the little angel who threw the landmine: Why don't you try superglue and one fear cub;
Thanks to the little angel of the irrigation nutrient solution: 9 bottles of fusong tea;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
The rain is getting heavier.
Unlike midsummer thunderstorms, which come and go quickly, autumn rains often last all night.
In order to avoid the danger of landslides, the road up the mountain was closed to traffic early.A group of more than a dozen medical staff could only get out of the car, holding umbrellas with difficulty, and walked halfway up the mountain by stepping on the muddy water on the road.

When rushing into the office building, Lu Danggui was drenched all over.He had just received a cup of hot water in the office, and before he could drink it in his hand, he heard a burst of noisy voices from the corridor outside the door.
"It's thundering, go take the stairs, hurry—"
Putting on a white coat and walking out of the lounge, he saw several medical staff and security guards rushing out of the elevator and rushing upstairs.
Following at the end of the line was the head nurse of the fifth department. When she saw Lu Danggui standing at the door and looking in this direction, she suddenly stopped and strode towards the office.

Before the head nurse could finish speaking, Lu Danggui had already taken out a flashlight from the cabinet, picked up the patient information printed in front of the printer, turned around and walked out the door.
"Doctor Lu—"
"It's too late to wait for their words," Lu Danggui leaned against the doorknob with his back, motioning for her to follow quickly, "Follow me!"
Heavy rain washed over the city, and dark clouds covered half of the moon.
A group of people rushed up the stairs to the top floor, and found that a group of people had already gathered in front of the outer door leading to the roof.Even the vice president who was on duty was startled, and stood in the middle of the crowd with a stern expression.

In the torrential rain, the woman's wet hair on the sideburns was tightly pressed against her chin. She turned her head again and blinked at the young doctor behind her.

Just standing on a high place and looking down, he would feel a little scared.What a desperate person is, what kind of things he has to go through, and what kind of struggles he has made in his heart, to stand on such a high position without hesitation.
Looking through the railing, looking at the rainy night not far away, Lu Danggui's eyes suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Across the high wall filled with electric grids, on the top floor of the closed ward opposite, the window was still lit as usual.
However, that pair of curtains that were always tightly closed was pulled open a gap at some point.
A slender and tall figure stood by the window, motionless for a long time.It was as if he was quietly looking at the place where he was standing on the roof.
The steps under his feet paused slightly, and Lu Danggui stood in place for a while holding an umbrella.
Not long after, he turned and left the rooftop with his colleagues behind him.
Lu Danggui didn't know that this was the second time he saved a person who stood on the roof.
--
The vice president went to ask the nurses and security guards who were on duty today to be held accountable.Lu Danggui rejected the director's proposal to let him go home to rest, and went downstairs with his colleagues, carrying the lunch box to the rest room, ready to warm up the dinner before eating.
Hanging the rain-soaked clothes on the back of the chair, he sat in front of the table and sneezed twice.
Rubbing his reddened nose with his hands, he decided to make himself a Radix Banlangen as a hot drink.
After blowing on the air conditioner for a while, when the clothes on his body were almost dry, the one-armed hero Lu Danggui picked up his chopsticks and began to fight wits and courage with the egg fried rice in the lunch box.
Just halfway through eating, he heard a noise coming from the corridor.
What happened again?
Putting down the chopsticks and opening the door of the lounge, Lu Danggui found a middle-aged man standing at the stairs not far away.
The man held a little girl in his hand and held another in his arm.
Seeing Lu Danggui walked out of the waiting room, the head nurse quickly turned her head and winked at him desperately, meaning to let Dr. Lu avoid it for a while, and they will take care of it.
No one in the room expected that the middle-aged man would point to Lu Danggui's face as soon as he saw him, and start yelling in a local accent, "I'm just here to look for him, why did you lie to me that he's not here?"
The head nurse had a guilty smile on her face: "Dr. Lu is not on duty during the day, and he really didn't know about the hospital he just arrived at—"
Before she could finish speaking, the middle-aged man completely ignored the obstruction of several nurses around him, dragged the crying little girl, and walked straight towards Doctor Lu.
Recognizing that the young man in front of him is the doctor surnamed Lu on the hospital bulletin board, the middle-aged man said with a grim expression:
"Doctor Lu, my daughter-in-law was just sent to the hospital this morning, and you called tonight, saying that she is going to jump off a building, what's the matter?"
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Lu Danggui frowned.
The female patient just now belonged to Ward A07, and the attending doctor registered on the diagnosis form was indeed herself.This middle-aged man probably also came to the door directly after reading the doctor's information written on the diagnosis sheet.
Turning his eyes from the face of the middle-aged man to the shivering little girl in his arms, Lu Danggui said softly:
"Mr. Li, your wife has given birth to four children in three years, and her physical and mental conditions are not very satisfactory. Since you have already developed obvious symptoms of postpartum depression, why do you let her continue to prepare for pregnancy?"
When asked bluntly by Lu Danggui, the expression of the middle-aged man suddenly changed.
Handing the child in his arms to the older girl, he stepped forward and grabbed Lu Danggui by the neckline.
"This is my own family business, can you fucking control it?"
Staring at the fearless young doctor in front of him, the middle-aged man's tone was full of threats, "I'm just going to ask, if something happened to my daughter-in-law today, can you afford it?"
The back of his head hit the lounge door behind him, and a sudden pain came from the back of his head.Being tightly gripped by the neckline by the middle-aged man, Lu Danggui smiled instead of anger:
"Mr. Li, medical trouble is now under sentence, please pay attention to your behavior."
He naturally knew in his heart why the man came all the way to the hospital in such a thunderstorm.
There are so many children in the family, so the expenses are naturally not small, and the wife is admitted to the hospital again, which costs money every day.It would be a good way if he could use the incident of committing suicide as an excuse to severely blackmail him for going to the hospital.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was tense, the head nurse sneaked downstairs a long time ago and called the security guard from the security office to come up.
Through the glass door, the middle-aged man was also a little scared when he saw several security guards in uniform coming from behind.
He loosened Lu Danggui's collar, but just before turning around, he was spitting on Lu Danggui's face.
"Doctor Lu!"
The head nurse exclaimed, and the security guards who followed her were also stunned, not knowing what to do for a while.
"..."
Pulling out a tissue from the pocket of his white coat, Lu Danggui raised his hand and wiped away the stains on his face little by little.His brows were lowered, and there was no expression on his face.
"I'm fine," Lu Danggui put his hands in his pockets while throwing the tissue into the trash can in the corner, and said softly, "The patient should have woken up, take Mr. Li to A07."
Everyone in the corridor had already left, Lu Danggui turned around and walked towards the bathroom at the end of the corridor.
After entering the bathroom, he turned on the faucet with his uninjured hand and washed his face briefly. He raised his head and stared blankly at the figure in the mirror.
For those who are familiar and close, he may be a little irritable and loves to lose his temper.But in front of outsiders, he is actually always tolerant.
He has always maintained such an illusion in front of others, he never expected that anyone would notice his true feelings, even if he asked a question out of concern.
It wasn't until that night a few years ago that someone noticed something was wrong with him for the first time.
The man was sitting in a wheelchair in the backyard, looking at him indifferently:
[Why bother? 】
The dark clouds dispersed, and the moonlight sprinkled on the porcelain wall of the bathroom along the gap of the ventilation window.
Wet water droplets trickled down the ends of the hair, mist filled the mirror surface, and the figures in the mirror gradually became blurred.
Standing quietly in front of the pool for a while, Lu Danggui wiped off the water stains on his face, and went downstairs without looking back.
--
Since he came to work in the Seventh Hospital, this was the first time Lu Danggui went to the top floor of the closed ward.
He had made many excuses and reasons for himself, and he had walked into this elevator every time, but he never had the courage to press that button.
It was dark and all house rounds were over.
The corridor in the closed ward was also empty, except for the voice-activated lights on the top of the corridor and the wire-lined gate at the end of the corridor, there was no other light source on the entire floor.
Walking out of the elevator door, Lu Danggui hesitated for a moment, but still took a step and walked towards the door at the end of the corridor.In the empty corridor, the sound of his footsteps was particularly abrupt.
All the way to the end of the corridor, Lu Danggui stopped in front of the door of the closed ward.
It was already past two o'clock in the morning, and the person locked inside should have rested long ago.
Not wanting to disturb the rest of the person inside, he raised his hand and stood at the door for a long time, but Lu Danggui still didn't knock on the door in front of him.
He didn't want to go back to the office and deal with the care and condolences of his colleagues one after another.And I don't want to spend the long night in a cubicle in the lounge with just my clothes on.
Although separated by a door, there is a harbor where he can put everything down and stop temporarily.
Sighing, Lu Danggui turned his back and slowly sat on the ground leaning against the door of the ward.
Holding his curled knees with both hands, he pressed the weight of his entire upper body against the door of the ward behind him, and gradually closed his eyes.
Just as he adjusted his sitting posture, there was a very slight sound of footsteps on the side of the door.
The footsteps came closer and closer, and finally stopped at the door.
"Doctor Lu, is that you?"
An indifferent male voice came faintly from the ward.
The drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, and Lu Danggui lowered his eyelids and remained silent.
He didn't know how Xing Xuan recognized him, and he didn't want to ask.
Too many things happened today, he was too tired, his upper and lower eyelids were so sleepy that they were fighting.
No one spoke, and there was only a long silence and silence in the air.
After a while, there was a rustling of cloth behind the door.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Danggui heard Xing Xuan's voice coming from the back of his head, very close to him:
"Good evening, Doctor Lu."
The door of the closed ward was locked and could not be opened from the inside.
Xing Xuan simply sat on the ground with his back against the door.
They were separated only by a wire door.
Not knowing what to say to the people inside, Lu Danggui deliberated in his mind for a while, and then tentatively opened his mouth:
"What happened on the rooftop tonight... did you see it?"
"Ah."
said the man at the door.
There is a long distance between the two buildings, this person should not have seen his injury.
After struggling for a while, Lu Danggui still made up his mind that he was not going to tell Xing Xuan that he had made a big gash in his hand.
"Does it hurt?"
Xing Xuan asked suddenly.
"..."
The heartbeat stopped for a moment, Lu Danggui slid her throat, and said unnaturally:
"It's--it's okay, little injury."
He didn't expect that Xing Xuan really saw everything in his eyes.
"……And you,"
Lu Danggui blurted out subconsciously, "Does it hurt?"
The current MEC and ECT technologies are much more advanced than those of previous years. The stimulation time brought by the electric current is very short, and with the assistance of anesthesia, the probability of convulsions has been greatly reduced.
However, these steps still cause a certain amount of fear and distress to the patient due to the need for muscle relaxant injections prior to treatment.
He originally wanted to ask this person tactfully, how is the recent treatment and whether it is effective, but he did not expect to be able to follow the conversation.
Xing Xuan smiled.
His laughter was very light, soft, soft, like a feather flirting across the tip of his heart, making his chest itchy badly.
He said, "As long as you think about Dr. Lu, the pain will stop."
"..."
Standing up straight from the door, the sleepiness in Lu Danggui's mind immediately dissipated.
I am!
He was completely taken aback.
Is it possible that the instrument treatment is really effective? !
Can a person with such a severe alexithymia say such obscene words? ?
Getting up from the door, in line with the principle of taking advantage of the victory and pursuing the pursuit, Lu Danggui hurriedly brought up another topic, wanting to test the healing effect of this person.
Unexpectedly, after finishing that sentence, Xing Xuan returned to the mode of asking and answering, and all replies should not exceed two words.
His tone was still cold and indifferent, not as gentle as before.It seemed that such a short sentence had exhausted all the emotional cells of this person.
In the middle of talking about various topics, Lu Danggui suddenly remembered the song he heard on TV on the way to work tonight.
He turned his head, pulled his entire upper body in front of the door, and asked seriously:
"Xing Xuan, do you remember when you were hospitalized in the affiliated hospital, did you listen to a song for me? You said, it was the demo tape of your new song—"
In the ward, Xing Xuan's voice paused slightly:
"... Down the Road."
"you know?"
Xing Xuan's answer was somewhat beyond Lu Danggui's expectations.
Now, he was even more puzzled.
Now that Xing Xuan knew the name of this song, did he sell this song to others? Did he know that the singer named Bie Hehong sang this song and won the Galaxy Grand Prize with it? record.
The person at the other end of the door did not speak for a long time.
Xing Xuan raised his head and looked at the window next to the hospital bed, and the moon-star-sparse night sky outside the railing.
The moonlight is beautiful, and the soul of love is within reach.
The barbed wire separated the two people on the other side. Although there was a door between them, he could feel the beating heart of that person.
Downtheroad, the distant road.
This song was originally written for you.
After a while, Lu Danggui heard Xing Xuan ask, "Do you want to hear me sing?"
The author has something to say: I wish everyone good health, good health and a bright future for the Dragon Boat Festival~~
