Chapter 9 Mutations

Early the next morning, Ye Cheng visited Hannah with fruit.

There were reporters in the ward, so Ye Cheng had to wait outside. After waiting until noon, when Ye Cheng and the little boy were eating fast food, the reporters finally came out.

The foreign man sent the reporter out, saw Ye Cheng, and warmly welcomed him into the room.

Hannah was holding the baby in her arms, half lying on the bed, and she was very happy to see Ye Cheng coming.

The foreign man moved Ye Cheng's chair and poured red wine.

"This wine is imported from France, and it's artificially brewed. It tastes so pure." Hannah said, "Do you like it if you try it?"

Ye Cheng sat on the chair, took the wine, drank it all in one gulp, and said with a smile, "It tastes good."

The foreign man readily gave Ye Cheng a bottle.

Hannah took Ye Cheng's hand, eyes full of gratitude: "Ye Cheng, thank you so much, baby, this is our savior, come to say hello to brother?"

The little baby was in Hannah's arms, kicking his legs hard, crying hoarsely.

Ye Cheng shook hands with the little baby, but the little baby kicked around and refused to let Ye Cheng touch it.

Hannah handed the baby to Ye Cheng for him to hold, the baby turned around to hide from Ye Cheng, and stretched out its little hand towards his father.

The foreign man picked up the baby and hummed a little song softly, and the baby became quiet. The man coaxed the baby and handed the baby to Hannah.

Hannah shook her head at Ye Cheng, showing a wry smile: "As soon as I hug him, he cries, hey, the baby doesn't want mommy, but likes daddy."

The foreign man sat on the edge of the bed and wrapped his arms around Hannah's shoulders: "Daddy likes Mommy."

"Bad guy!" Hannah laughed and scolded, teasing his son, touching the baby's face with his finger, the baby turned his head away to avoid Hannah's hand.

The nurse came in and said that the baby would be examined, and the man followed the nurse and left with the baby in his arms.

Ye Cheng observed Hannah and asked, "Didn't sleep well recently?"

"Sleeping okay." Hannah took a look in the mirror, and found that the eye sockets were dark again, and a little swollen.

"Just put on a mask some other day and put on eye cream." Ye Cheng took out a small flashlight and said, "Look up."

Ye Cheng opened Hannah's eyelids, checked for a moment, and let go of his hand. The deformed eyelids were rebounding at a very slow speed. When Hannah looked at Ye Cheng, the eyelids were still opened.

Hannah felt that her eyelids were strangely uncomfortable, she rubbed her eyes, and when she put down her hands, the eyelids finally returned to their original shape.

Ye Cheng asked in a hoarse voice: "Is your appetite good? Do you feel any discomfort?"

"It can be eaten, but the digestion is not very good."

"Poor digestion?"

"Yeah." Hannah tilted her head and thought for a while, "I always feel that things are not digested, and they are always blocked. After eating, my stomach will be very bloated."

Ye Cheng touched Hannah's stomach and found a bulge there. Hannah said that the meal he ate half an hour ago is still blocked, which is very uncomfortable.

"Also, my body is very itchy during this time." Hannah scratched his neck, "Is it because of a drug allergy?"

"Is there subcutaneous bleeding?"

"Yes." Hannah unbuttoned her clothes, revealing her livid skin.

Hannah's body spots are more serious than imagined, Ye Cheng smiled and said: "It's okay, it's normal, it will itch if there is bleeding under the skin."

"Do you want to apply medicine?" Hannah touched the purple scar, but Ye Cheng grabbed her hand.

"No need to apply medicine, don't scratch, and don't touch." Ye Cheng said, "It will go away on its own after a while."

After Ye Cheng left the ward, he went to look for Chen Guoguo, but Chen Guoguo was not there, and Zheng Chuanchuan received him.

Zheng Chuanchuan poured a cup of hot tea and put it in front of Ye Cheng, and said, "Dr. Chen is away for a meeting and won't be back until a few days later."

Ye Cheng asked: "Then who is in charge of Hannah now?"

Zheng Chuanchuan glanced at Ye Cheng and said, "Me."

The little boy climbed onto Ye Cheng's lap and refused to get off, so Ye Cheng had no choice but to hold him in his arms.

"Your son?" Zheng Chuanchuan handed Ye Cheng the medical records.

The little boy straightened his back: "Yeah!"

Ye Cheng petted the little boy, took the medical records and flipped through them page by page.

The medical record was written by Chen Guoguo, which recorded various data such as changes in the condition, blood pressure and pulse. After reading it, Ye Cheng returned the medical record.

Zheng Chuanchuan said: "Hannah is recovering well and can be discharged from the hospital next week."

Where the recovery is not bad, she is almost turning into a monster!

Ye Cheng really wanted to tell him about the changes in himself and Hannah, but he opened his mouth and finally said nothing.

This secret was like a boulder, weighing heavily on Ye Cheng.

Zheng Chuanchuan lit a cigarette for himself, then took out another one and handed it to Ye Cheng.

Ye Cheng took the cigarette and asked, "Did you see the purple spots on her body?"

"I see, it's just bleeding under the skin." Zheng Chuanchuan's conclusion was the same as the others.

"Does it look like a corpse spot?" Ye Cheng observed his expression.

"Corpse spots?" Zheng Chuanchuan laughed, "Corpse spots grow on living people?"

Ye Cheng clasped his hands, was silent for a while, and said, "I think so."

"Doctor Ye, you are overthinking." Zheng Chuanchuan put the medical records back in the cabinet indifferently.

Ye Cheng sat sullenly, always trying to find something to talk about, but Zheng Chuanchuan didn't talk to him, and just packed his things by himself.

Ye Cheng held back for a moment, took his leave and left.

Zheng Chuanchuan peeked over, just in time to meet the little boy's gaze.

When Ye Cheng was eating, he lost his mind, and the ribs were not clamped properly, and fell on the table.

The little boy gave Ye Cheng another piece. Ye Cheng chewed on the ribs, and suddenly said: "There is something wrong with the medical records."

"Oh." The little boy picked vegetables for Ye Cheng.

With a mouthful of vegetables in his mouth, Ye Cheng said, "Ruptured internal organs can be mended, but if they are broken, the internal organs are completely useless."

It is impossible for Chen Guoguo and Ye Cheng not to know that Hannah's internal organs are almost completely rotten, and no supplementation can restore it.

However, in the X-ray photos taken, Hannah's internal organs are intact, and there is no evidence of missing parts at all.

This is not normal.

Very abnormal.

"Then do you want to change the medical records back?" the little boy asked.

Ye Cheng held the bowl and remained silent.

The little boy picked up a piece of pork liver and put it into Ye Cheng's mouth.

"Dad, isn't this medical record very good?" said the little boy, "Why should it be changed?"

"Hannah should have died long ago." Ye Cheng raised his head and met the little boy's gaze, "She should have died on the night of the operation...but why is she still alive?"

Hannah's affairs are frequently broadcast on the news. She lives healthy and healthy, and everyone can see it.

If Ye Cheng changed the medical records, it would be ridiculous.

"Does she have scars?" the little boy asked.

"Have."

"Press a hole?"

Ye Cheng knocked him with a smile: "How dare you press it!"

The little boy covered his head and pouted, "Same as yours?"

"Yes." Ye Cheng believed in his judgment.

"She died a long time ago? Like Hu Er?"

Ye Cheng nodded.

"What about you?" the little boy asked.

"!!!" There was a crackling sound of lightning and thunder in Ye Cheng's mind.

Mom!Why didn't he think of this question? ! !

"Oh my God!!!" Ye Cheng covered his face and wailed, deeply shocked by himself, "Could it be that I also turned into a corpse???"

He hasn't got married yet, his wife hasn't married yet, and now he finds out that he died for no reason, Ye Cheng's whole life is going to be bad.

He took off his pants and stretched his thigh to look at the scar, wanting to see if he could still save it.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the color of the scar is lighter, and the area is also smaller.

The little boy poked it, but there was no pit.

Ye Cheng took off his collar again and told him to look at it, the little boy simply found a mirror and let Ye Cheng look at it by himself.

The scar below the neck has enlarged, and compared with the one on the thigh, the color has become darker, as if black juice will come out when pressed...

The lakeside was quiet at night. Ye Cheng and the little boy sat on the chairs for more than an hour. Ye Cheng couldn't bear it any longer. He went to the lake and squatted, shouting toward the water: "Hey—I coming--"

A duck boat sailed not far away, and a couple of lovers were laughing and joking.Ye Cheng waited for the duck boat to go far away before calling softly: "Bug——"

The colorful lights were reflected by the lake, and Ye Cheng looked at the lake, not sure if the big bug could hear it or not.

Do worms have ears?

"Use this." The little boy handed Ye Cheng a bag of vegetables, which were leftovers from their meals, and the pork ribs and vegetable leaves had everything.

Ye Cheng took out a spare rib and threw it into the lake. The fish were overjoyed and swam towards the spare rib.

Ye Cheng threw out a few more pieces, shouting as he threw it: "Bug——"

A shout came from a distance: "Hey! What are you doing over there?!"

Ye Cheng turned his head and looked, ah, the people from the management office are here!

"No! Run!" Ye Cheng finished speaking, only to feel his back sinking, and the little boy crawled onto Ye Cheng's back.

"No food is allowed in the lake! Hey! Don't run! Pay the fine!" The management office chased after him in frustration.

A tentacle watched with relish, seeing them running far away, it slowly sank into the water.

Ye Cheng ran wildly with his son on his back, rushed into the woods, gasping for breath while holding on to the tree, he hadn't eaten for a long time, and he was about to throw up after running all the way.

The little boy crossed his legs and patted Ye Cheng: "Father, go! Drive! Drive!"

"Where is this riding a horse?!"

"This is weight-bearing practice!" The little boy clamped his legs hard, "Dad, exercise more! Be good, run!"

"Hmph!" Ye Cheng refused to run away.

The people from the management office chased into the forest: "Don't run! Stop!"

Ye Cheng started running wildly again.

The people in the management office yelled loudly all the way, and the patrolling guards thought something happened, so they chased after them with batons.

Ye Cheng's eyes were darkened in the woods, he turned left and right, he turned to a place he didn't know where he went, and when he turned around, he found that there was no one behind him.

A group of free-ranging chickens found the intruder, clucking and rushing towards Ye Cheng. Ye Cheng had no choice but to continue to escape, but was finally driven to the lake by a group of chickens. A few big roosters with fierce faces threatened him from a distance.

Ye Cheng was in a mess, panting and huddled in a corner, the little boy ran out and brought back a bottle of mineral water.

"Where did you buy it?" Ye Cheng was curious.

"There's a canteen over there." The little boy pushed aside the bushes, and the light from the canteen came in. There were a bunch of duck boats parked by the lake. Unknowingly, he ran to the place where the duck boats were rented out.

Ye Cheng lay in the bushes for a long time, and after making sure there were no pursuers, he ran out to buy a ticket, and boarded the boat with the little boy.

Ye Cheng was paralyzed on the seat, not wanting to move at all, and the little boy was under the seat, stepping on the pedal vigorously.

A duck boat slid slowly across from the opposite side, and when the two boats passed by, Ye Cheng shouted in surprise: "Yu Qing! Liang Lian!"

Liang Lian turned his head and saw that it was Ye Cheng, he grinned, controlled the duck boat to turn around, and walked side by side with Ye Cheng's boat.

"What a coincidence, come out to play?" Liang Lian asked.

"Come out for a stroll." Ye Cheng's eyes fell on Yu Qing, who leaned on Liang Lian's shoulder with his eyes closed.

"He drank too much and fell asleep." When Liang Lian spoke, there was a strong smell of alcohol in his mouth, which made Ye Cheng frown.

"Alcohol hurts your health, too much is not good." Ye Cheng said, "Go home and drink some strong tea, or eat some radishes to hangover."

"Well, I got it, hiccup!" Liang Lian got drunk, lit a cigarette, and took a deep puff.

Ye Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What did you do? Drinking and sailing, aren't you afraid you'll faint and fall into the lake?"

"Yu Qing is in a bad mood, let's relax with him." Liang Lian puffed out smoke and looked at Ye Cheng, "We are withdrawing."

"What? The convoy?" Ye Cheng didn't understand.

Liang Lian smiled wryly: "We can no longer investigate the case of the hospital. The superior has issued an order to stop the investigation."

"How could this be?!" Ye Cheng was surprised.

"It's probably your dean who said hello." Liang Lian closed his eyes and sighed, "Ye Cheng, let me tell you the truth, the so-called special case team is just going through the motions, and your dean didn't plan to seriously investigate this case at all. Patroling the home received a sum of money, and things went down like this.”

"Then... are you going to leave then?" Ye Cheng asked anxiously, "Aren't you staying in the hospital?"

"The team has been withdrawn, so why keep it? Besides, hasn't the murderer been solved?" Liang Lian asked back.

Ye Cheng stopped talking, and there was silence on the lake.

"That's good, so I don't have to write a report." Yu Qing closed his eyes and said something.

Liang Lian smiled and blew smoke at him: "You scoundrel, you actually eavesdropped!"

Yu Qing sneezed, sniffed, and said again: "The matter is not over yet, Ye Cheng, you have to be careful."

"Let's go, go back." Liang Lian kicked his legs, stepped on Yu Qing's feet hard, and said depressedly, "It's weird, why didn't the boat not move?"

Ye Cheng broke out in sweat, and said to the little boy, "Go over."

The little boy climbed into Liang Lian's boat, and Liang Lian was about to faint, so he moved away to let the little boy step on the pedals.

Ye Cheng stood beside him, and the two boats wobbled back to the shore.

Liang Lian told him that the car was parked by the side of the road, then tilted his head and fell asleep.

Ye Cheng moved them into the car and asked, "Where do you live?"

"Huhuhu..."

Ye Cheng: "..."

Ye Cheng thought about it and decided to go to the hospital. He had beds in his office for them to sleep in. Besides, if something happened, he could take care of it in time.

Stepping on the brakes at a red light, there was a thumping sound from the back seat. Ye Cheng looked back and saw that the two criminal policemen fell under the seat and fell into a deep sleep. The little boy crawled over and moved them back to the seat one by one.

When they reached the gate of the hospital, Ye Cheng called for a nurse to carry them in one by one. The two criminal policemen were still talking nonsense when they were lying on the bed, and the little boy waited for them to take off their shoes and cover them with blankets.

"Pour some water for them." Ye Cheng said, "I'll get the hangover medicine, and I'll be back soon."

It was late at night, and the corridor was quiet. When Ye Cheng passed by a staircase, he felt flustered for no reason.

There were footsteps under the stairs, and a figure slowly turned around the corner and appeared in Ye Cheng's sight.

The man held a thick black plastic bag in his hand, raised his head, and stopped in his tracks as if he didn't know Ye Cheng, staring at him blankly.

Ye Cheng called tentatively: "Shen Zhou?"

Shen Zhou's eyes gradually focused, and belatedly said, "Ah, Doctor Ye?"

After Shen Zhou finished speaking, he walked up slowly again. When passing by Ye Cheng, Ye Cheng grabbed him: "Shen Zhou, do you have any discomfort?"

Shen Zhou was facing forward, but his eyes were squinting at Ye Cheng.

Ye Cheng let go of him, and took a step back vigilantly.

Shen Zhou's eyes were darkened, his face was haggard, and he looked like a wandering ghost under the cold light.The idea of ​​running away suddenly appeared in Ye Cheng's mind, and his subconscious told him that the sinking boat in front of him had undergone an unknown change, as if it had become something else.

A few minutes later, Shen Zhou said slowly: "Uncomfortable? No?"

"Where are you going?" Ye Cheng asked.

"Throw away the garbage." Shen Zhou walked slowly towards the fire escape, and suddenly turned around, "Hey, Doctor Ye?"

Shen Zhou's eyes shone with brilliance, as if the usual Shen Zhou had returned.

Ye Cheng suddenly felt that his thoughts were ridiculous, Shen Zhou was Shen Zhou, if he stood there properly, why wouldn't he come back?

"Doctor Ye, I have asked for leave from the hospital." Shen Zhou said, "My annual leave is about to expire, so take advantage of the annual leave to take a good rest."

Ye Cheng said: "Yeah, you should take a good rest, you work night shift all day long, look at how bad your face is."

Shen Zhou smiled: "Small... small...huh?" He buried his head in thought for a while, "Xiaojuan also said the same about me, ha ha."

"Shen Zhou, I'll test you, do you still remember Xiaojuan's name?" Ye Cheng stared at him and asked.

"Lu Juan." Shen Zhou stepped forward and patted Ye Cheng on the shoulder, "When I am on vacation, Xiao Juan will trouble you to take care of me."

Ye Cheng smiled and said, "It's pretty much the same if Xiaojuan takes care of us."

Shen Zhou laughed out loud, turned around and left.

Ye Cheng called to him: "Shen Zhou, before you go on vacation, why don't you have a physical examination?"

"Okay." Shen Zhou responded.

Ye Cheng turned a corner and walked to another staircase. He felt a little wet on his shoulders, touched it, and wiped off the reddish liquid.

what is this?

Ye Cheng sniffed his fingers, his expression changed drastically, he turned back and rushed up the stairs, Shen Zhou went somewhere, Ye Cheng didn't find him all the way, so he had to estimate the direction and ran into the fire escape.

The large trash can was placed in the corner, and there were only a few cotton swabs in it. Ye Cheng ran upstairs and found another large trash can. He rummaged inside and only found some cardboard boxes.

Ye Cheng searched several floors, and finally found a black plastic bag under the weight of garbage in a trash can.

He took out the bag and was about to untie it when the door of the fire escape creaked open.

Lu Juan was holding a foam lunch box in her hand, and looked at him in surprise: "Doctor Ye, what are you doing?"

Ye Cheng hurriedly threw the plastic bag back, and said guiltily, "Hehe, I'm just throwing out the trash."

With mutton in his mouth, Shen Zhou followed Lu Juan in.

Seeing Ye Cheng, Shen Zhou was taken aback for a moment, then handed the mutton skewers to Ye Cheng, and said with a smile, "Doctor Ye, you came just in time, and there is another skewer, grilled by Xiaojuan, which is very delicious."

"Really, then I'm welcome."

Ye Cheng took it and took a bite.

Faint blood oozed from the mutton, and dripped down the bamboo stick to Ye Cheng's hand.
