Thirteen prisons

Chapter 7 Traces
There are many scars on Zhou Yuan's body, most of which are bumps and abrasions left by the beating, and there are bruises everywhere.Aaron's group of people are professional gangsters, and they are very measured. They will only make people feel pain, but there will be no serious trauma, not even a broken bone.He was just pressed to the ground and beaten for a long time, with footprints and dust all over his clothes, looking extremely embarrassed.

Zhou Yuan was worried that his parents would come back to see him later, so he planned to take a bath first.But before Lao Hu was about to leave, he discovered that besides those bruises, there was a strange scar on Zhou Yuan's body.

With the help of Lao Hu, Zhou Yuan also saw the scar on his body in the mirror.He couldn't help but gasped: a large piece of skin from his right shoulder to his back turned bright red.At first glance, it looks like it is bleeding, but upon closer inspection, it is found that there are many small red dot marks, and the edges of the marks are slightly raised. Compared with the normal skin next to it, it looks like an extremely serious rash, which looks densely packed. nausea.Zhou Yuan tried to touch it with his hand, but he didn't feel anything special.

"What's wrong with you?" Lao Hu heaved a sigh of relief, just now he thought it was a long wound on Zhou Yuan's back that was bleeding non-stop, so he was startled.

Zhou Yuan shook his head without knowing why.If it wasn't for Lao Hu's discovery, he didn't feel it at all, and he was very sure that he didn't have this thing on his body yesterday.

Lao Hu reached out and rubbed the rash vigorously, Zhou Yuan didn't respond, but Lao Hu frowned: "Why are you so hot?"

"No?" Zhou Yuan touched again, everything was normal.

"No." Old Hu thought for a while: "Is there a thermometer at home?"

Two minutes later, the two looked at the scale on the thermometer and looked at each other.

38.5 degrees, not strictly a high fever, but a moderate fever.But the strange thing is that Zhou Yuan didn't feel a fever at all.

"What's going on?" Zhou Yuan looked sideways at the rash on his body, it was still bright red, and his scalp seemed to be numb. "Is it related to last night's incident?" He was a little panicked, since he pulled that Liu San yesterday, everything seemed to be getting worse, and he instinctively connected with this incident.

"I worked on a case before." Lao Hu suddenly said, "That man had many red spots all over his body, which looked a bit like you. Later, many tiny bugs emerged from his body."

Zhou Yuan didn't understand why he suddenly mentioned this, but after imagining that scene, goosebumps suddenly appeared on his body, and he asked, "And then?"

"Finally, the murderer was found. He was poisoned by someone. Did you know that something like Gu is a kind of parasite cultivated, which can live dormant in the human body..."

"Really?" Zhou Yuan's voice trembled, interrupting Lao Hu.

"It's not necessarily true. It may be a head drop. I've only heard of it, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but it seems that it will be even worse."

Zhou Yuan heard the teasing meaning in the old Hu's words: "Old Hu, what do you mean, don't be joking, I'm really flustered."

Lao Hu threw the clothes to Zhou Yuan: "What I mean is, guessing is useless. Let's go to the hospital."

Zhou Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Then I'll call Lu Ming first."

Lu Ming is Zhou Yuan's neighbor since he was a child, and he was a classmate from elementary school to high school.It's just that Zhou Yuan's grades are mediocre, and he went to a vocational school after graduating from high school, while Lu Ming is a true academic master.He was admitted to Beijing Medical University, and Zhou Yuan didn't know what major he was studying, but he only knew that his grades were still excellent.

Surprisingly, Lu Ming did not stay in the big city after graduation, but returned to Beiyang City.Zhou Yuan once asked Lu Ming, but Lu Ming avoided this question.In the end, he was assigned to Beiyang Central Hospital, where he was in charge of skin diseases and respiratory diseases.His qualifications in Beiyang Central Hospital are not old, but his professional ability is very strong. He has been an attending physician in a few years, and he is highly valued by the hospital leaders. It can be regarded as a bright future, but at least it is a young and promising role model. When Zhou Yuan's parents scold him, they always use Lu Ming as an example.

But because Lu Ming is usually very busy, and because of his different life circles, Zhou Yuan seldom looks for him.But the friendship between the two for more than ten years has not changed because of the differences in the mix.Encountering such a matter of going to the hospital, Zhou Yuan naturally thought of looking for Lu Ming immediately.

Lu Ming was busy in the hospital, so he said a few words and told Zhou Yuan to go directly to him when he arrived and hung up the phone.Knowing that Zhou Yuan had acquaintances in the Central Hospital, Lao Hu helped park the car at the hospital and left first. Before leaving, he thought about it and told Zhou Yuan to call him whenever he had something to do.Although he didn't work as a policeman, Lao Hu still felt that what Zhou Yuan experienced yesterday was a bit weird.

Zhou Yuan didn't think much about it, he just cared about it normally as a friend.When he went to the door of the skin and respiratory department of the outpatient clinic on the third floor of the hospital, he found that there were many patients, and there were six or seven people queuing up at the door. Lu Ming was looking at the throat of a patient, and when he saw Zhou Yuan, he motioned him to sit aside first. wait.

After waiting for nearly an hour, it finally came to an end.Lu Ming closed the office door, stood up and pulled Zhou Yuan to the examination room in the back room.When Zhou Yuan took off his clothes, he was a little surprised when he saw the trauma all over his body: "How did you do this?"

"There was some conflict with someone." Zhou Yuan said vaguely, wanting to skip this paragraph.Those skin injuries are not important. He came to Lu Ming mainly to see the sudden rash on his body and the abnormal temperature of his body.

But Lu Ming is very interested in these traumas: "Tsk tsk, it looks like you were beaten badly. There are at least three or five people on the other side?" After teasing a few words, Lu Ming said seriously: "Zhou Yuan, you are going to be three too soon!" It's ten, don't fight like street gangsters for a day, if nothing else, your parents are so worried."

Zhou Yuan was a little speechless. Although he was the same age as himself, Lu Ming was so old-fashioned but he didn't feel disobedient. It was consistent with his image of a good student since he was a child. He quickly changed the topic and pointed to his back: "You help me first Let me look here, this thing didn't exist yesterday, I was shocked. Also, my body temperature seems to be a little high, but it doesn't look like a fever. "

After being told by Lu Ming, Zhou Yuan simply told the other things that happened last night.But just like what Lao Hu said jokingly before, Zhou Yuan didn't think there was any connection between these two things.He just wanted to tell Lu Ming that he was beaten for a reason, not causing trouble on his own initiative.Now that he has arrived at the hospital, the problems on his body will naturally be handed over to the professional Lu Ming to solve them.

Lu Ming looked at it carefully for a while, then took out a thermometer and asked Zhou Yuan to measure his body temperature.Then he analyzed slowly: "The red marks on your body may be pimples. High palm temperature means body heat. You must be very anxious recently. In addition, staying up late and fighting may have caused your palm temperature. It's higher than the armpit temperature. To tell you the truth, I just admitted a patient this morning who also has something similar to your rash, so don't worry too much. This season, the weather is dry and airborne rubella is also prevalent."

After a while, the temperature came out, and it was still 38.5 degrees.Lu Ming listened to his heartbeat and chest cavity with a stethoscope again, and came to a preliminary conclusion: "You may be caused by the flu. Most people think that the onset of flu is in autumn and winter. In fact, flu occurs in all seasons. It's just that people nowadays Injection of the vaccine, the resistance to the flu virus is much stronger. Sometimes when I catch a cold, I have a headache and brain fever, and it will pass after taking some medicine to resist the first antibody. It will be fine in a day."

Although Zhou Yuan didn't think he had symptoms of a cold, he felt relieved after hearing Lu Ming's well-founded analysis: "You guys are amazing doctors. I haven't taken the medicine yet, so I feel at ease. few."

Lu Ming shook his head, told Zhou Yuan to lie down, and scrubbed the wounded parts of his body with disinfectant.Although those were skin traumas and not serious, and Zhou Yuan himself didn't care much about them, he still disinfected them.It should be able to recover soon after that, the skin trauma is like this, it looks serious.

After everything was dealt with, it was almost noon, and Zhou Yuan wanted to take him out to a restaurant for dinner. Lu Ming said that there were many patients in the afternoon, so he would make do in the hospital cafeteria. The two were discussing, when there was a rush of footsteps in the corridor.Someone ran and shouted for Dr. Lu, and then a man rushed in from the door.

"Doctor Lu, save Xiaoqing quickly, she is dying." As soon as the man rushed in, he knelt down at Lu Ming's feet with a plop.Zhou Yuan was taken aback, he had never seen such a formation.

Lu Ming picked up the man and said with a serious face, "Get up first. What's wrong with Xiaoqing, wasn't he fine when he was delivered in the morning?"

"Doctor Lu, the patient in bed 4012 has suddenly deteriorated." A nurse in a white hat followed outside the door, obviously chasing that person in, and explained quickly after seeing Lu Ming.

Lu Ming hummed, and then went to get the medical records he put on the table.At this moment, Zhou Yuan saw clearly the man kneeling on the ground, and his heart skipped a beat.It's really a narrow road to Yuanjia, and it turned out to be the Aaron who just beat him up and stole the money this morning.

At this time, Aaron was no longer as arrogant and majestic as he was in the morning, his face was full of anxiety, and he was crying with snot and tears.This kind of contrast was beyond Zhou Yuan's expectation. Seeing him like this, he wondered who Xiaoqing he was talking about, but judging by his expression, it seemed to be very important to him.

Aaron was picked up from the ground by Lu Ming. At this time, two young people came in outside the house. They should be Aaron's subordinates. They also participated in the beating of Zhou Yuan in the morning.When those two people saw Zhou Yuan head on, they were stunned for a moment, then one of them excitedly pointed at Zhou Yuan and shouted: "Brother Long, it's this kid."

Aaron was pulling Lu Ming with snot and tears and didn't let go. When he heard this, he raised his head and saw Zhou Yuan, and immediately changed his face. Tears were still hanging on his face, but he cursed: "Fuck your mother!" Yes, you will pay me Xiaoqing." As he spoke, he rushed towards Zhou Yuan.Lu Ming had quick eyes and quick hands, and hugged him from behind before he could make a move.

"What are you doing?" Lu Ming shouted, "He is my friend."

"Doctor Lu, let go, I must abolish this kid today. Xiaoqing was the one who killed him."

Aaron's words made Zhou Yuan almost vomit blood, thinking where the hell is this?Who is Xiaoqing?Why do you blame yourself for things that are out of reach?It just doesn't make sense.

"Don't talk nonsense. Xiaoqing's illness is a fever with unknown symptoms. What does it have to do with him? Don't make trouble anymore. Xiaoqing is still in the emergency room. If you delay for a while, she will really be hopeless." Lu Ming While talking, he signaled Zhou Yuan with his eyes to go out quickly.

The doctor's words were still quite weighty, Aaron calmed down immediately, said a few right and right words, and then said to Lu Ming: "Dr. Save Xiaoqing."

Although he didn't know exactly what happened, Zhou Yuan understood that it was definitely not a good thing, and it was best to avoid it first.But as soon as he left the door, the two young men posted up, staring at him fiercely, with an expression of "don't try to run away, this matter is endless".Zhou Yuan had no choice but to call Lu Ming.Lu Ming turned around and saw this scene, and simply said: "You go with me."

With Lu Ming here, the two young men didn't stop them. A group of people rushed straight to the innermost emergency room on the second floor. A group of people had already surrounded the door there. He came up and said, "The patient has respiratory failure and his body temperature is very high..."

"Prepare oxygen and adrenaline, and raise the emergency measures to level three." Lu Ming let go of Zhou Yuan's hand, and ordered calmly.A nurse next to him handed him a pair of gloves and a mask. He was about to go in after putting them on, but stopped at the door, turned around and said to Aaron: "The operation needs to be absolutely quiet, do you understand? Zhou Yuan told me about your affairs just now." I said, if you have anything to say, wait for me to come out and say it.”

Aaron nodded with a pale face, as if he was in awe of Lu Ming, looked at Zhou Yuan, and only said: "You boy can't go." After speaking, he stood guard at the door of the emergency room.

Now that the matter was over, Zhou Yuan didn't want to leave immediately, so he sat down on the chair in the corridor.Aaron's look at him was full of suppressed anger, but Zhou Yuan had no idea where this anger came from.

Those two young men also came over and sat down next to Zhou Yuan, as if he was the culprit of everything, for fear that he would run away.But luckily this is in the hospital, Zhou Yuan believes that they dare not act recklessly, the doubt in their hearts is far greater than the fear.

After Lu Ming entered the emergency room with a group of white coats, the two big red letters of first aid on the ceiling light at the door lit up.Aaron kept walking back and forth at the door of the emergency room, looking very irritable.

"Who is Xiaoqing?" After sitting for a while, it was really annoying to see Aaron circling around, so Zhou Yuan couldn't help but tentatively asked the young people around him.

"Do you really don't know or you don't know?" The young man said angrily with his eyes wide open.

Damn this group of people can't talk well?Zhou Yuan didn't know if this kid was an adult, but his face was full of childishness, but he deliberately held his head up to look domineering.At this time, Zhou Yuan didn't bother to worry about it, so he lowered his voice and said sincerely: "I really don't know where I messed with you, didn't I give you all the money?"

The kid looked at Zhou Yuan and didn't speak for a minute, as if he was guessing his intentions.After watching for a while, he found that he didn't seem to be pretending, so he snorted: "The man you brought over yesterday, he ordered Miss Xiaoqing. After that guy left, Miss Xiaoqing started to feel wrong. Then it became like this , that guy must have some kind of dirty disease."

Only then did Zhou Yuan understand, and felt speechless for a while.

I picked up Liu San at the entrance of the bathing center. It seems that this Xiaoqing should be the lady Liu San was looking for when he went to the bathing center.The guy burned himself clean, but left a lot of trouble behind.The problem is not that the guy is dead, even if it is true that he infected Xiaoqing with something, what does it have to do with me?The thinking of this group of gangsters is really simple and rude, just because I was with Liu San in the end, they blamed all the responsibility on me, isn't it too bastard?

The more Zhou Yuan thought about it, the more he became speechless. Just as he was about to defend himself, the young man said solemnly: "Let me tell you, if Xiaoqing is fine, if something goes wrong, brother Along will definitely not let you go. He and Xiaoqing were supposed to be separated at the end of this year To be married."

I don't know if it was Zhou Yuan's illusion, but when the young man said this, his voice seemed to be a little choked up, and after he finished speaking, he turned his head sideways, as if he was trying to hide his emotions.

Zhou Yuan didn't know how to describe his mood, what the young man said really moved him a little.But after thinking about it, it's still the same sentence, what the hell does this have to do with me?I can't tell whether it's depressed or aggrieved, for a moment I just feel that the whole thing is so nonsensical to the extreme.Now I just hope that Lu Ming can save that little Qing, otherwise, seeing Aaron's appearance, I really don't know what will happen.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yuan's heart moved, and he sent a text message to Lao Hu: "Old Hu, I met Aaron in the hospital. He may still trouble me."

A short while after the text message was sent, there was an echo.Lao Hu's answer was very simple: "I'll be right over." Zhou Yuan suddenly felt a lot more at ease in his heart.

Sure enough, after less than 10 minutes, Lao Hu arrived.The scene in front of him obviously surprised him a bit, it was not the scene of the two parties fighting as expected, Zhou Yuan sat on the bench leaning against the wall, and the few people sitting or standing in the corridor were silent.Aaron stared at the glass of the emergency room with red eyes, not noticing Lao Hu's arrival at all.When his two subordinates saw Lao Hu, they knew that Zhou Yuan had called for his helper, but they didn't respond.

"What's going on?" Old Hu pulled Zhou Yuan and asked in a low voice.Zhou Yuan smiled bitterly and said that he didn't know, he only knew that Aaron's girlfriend was rescued inside now, and he believed that Zhou Yuan was one of the culprits, and if Xiaoqing had a problem, he would find trouble for him.

After listening for a long time, Lao Hu finally figured out what was going on, and looked at Aaron with some sympathy.

After more than an hour, the lights in the emergency room finally went out.As soon as Lu Ming walked out with the mask in hand, Aaron rushed over and grabbed his shoulder and asked, "How is Xiaoqing?"

Lu Ming didn't speak, his face was gloomy and uncertain.Zhou Yuan's heart also sank, he is the attending doctor, this expression can only show that the situation is very bad.

Aaron's lips began to tremble, and the hands supporting Lu Ming's shoulders drooped, as if he lost his strength all of a sudden. He grabbed his hair and shook his head and took a step back, yelling in a low voice, "Impossible, impossible……"

Two young men went up to help him, but he sat down on the ground, the muscles on his face were pulled into a ball, and he hammered his chest vigorously, as if he wanted to knock out the pain inside.

Lu Ming sighed, walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "She still has some time, go in and see her later." His voice was not loud, but Aaron straightened his head immediately, and asked hopefully: "Xiao Qing is not dead?"

Lu Ming nodded, but shook his head again.A low growl came out of Aaron's throat, and he called out to Xiaoqing, and jumped up from the ground to go into the emergency room, but just as he grabbed the door frame, Lu Ming grabbed his arm with his backhand.

"Doctor Lu, you are..."

"You wait first." Lu Ming pointed to Zhou Yuanyi: "Let him go first."
