Thirteen prisons

Chapter 8 Xiaoqing
"What did you say?" There was an expression of disbelief on Aaron's face.

Zhou Yuan also thought he heard it wrong, so he couldn't help shouting: "Are you kidding me? Why should I go in?"

Since Xiaoqing's life is dying, it is only natural to see Aaron at the last moment, since he is the closest person after all.But Zhou Yuan really couldn't understand why such a dying person didn't know him, why did he let him see her?

So when Lu Ming said this, all the people present were stunned. Time and voice seemed to have stopped at that moment, and all eyes immediately turned to Zhou Yuan.Those gazes were complex, questioning, mocking, watching, surprised, like a circle of knives, Zhou Yuan felt as if he was standing naked in the crowd and being watched.

"Doctor Lu, for your sake of saving Xiaoqing, I don't care if it's a joke. But if it's true, tell me why?" Aaron's eyes were red when he said this, His blue veins were bulging, and he was obviously on the verge of going berserk.

Lu Ming sighed and said, "It's dangerous for you to go in now, just wait a bit."

"Dangerous? It's not dangerous for him to go in. Doctor Lu, what the hell are you talking about?" Aaron interrupted Lu Ming, grabbed the doorknob of the emergency room with one hand, and trembled slightly with the other. Obviously, he is trying his best to endure his anger. If Lu Ming doesn't give him a convincing reason, he will absolutely lose his temper immediately.

Zhou Yuan also felt very embarrassed, and evaded: "Let him go, Xiaoqing and I don't know each other at all, so it's not appropriate to do this."

Lu Ming turned his face to look at him, and suddenly said: "This is Xiaoqing's strong request. Zhou Yuan, you'd better go see her."

Aaron's face turned livid because of these words, and the doorknob he was holding creaked, which was a sign of going crazy, and the two young men surrounded him with ferocious faces, waiting for Aaron's order .Obviously they also felt that this was a humiliation to the boss.

This tense atmosphere caused the two female nurses who came out later to step aside immediately, and Lao Hu also coughed. He didn't quite understand why Lu Ming made such an arrangement, but he still took two steps forward, ready to stop the situation that might get out of control at any time.
But Lu Ming was completely unmoved as if he hadn't seen it. He lifted Zhou Yuan's clothes: "Aaron, take a look at this first."

The red rash marks on the skin of Zhou Yuan's shoulder and back were revealed in front of everyone, and Aaron's expression changed immediately after seeing the bright red rash. His anger turned into extreme surprise in an instant. He pointed at Zhou Yuan, somewhat He said in disbelief, "He also has..."

"He, like Xiaoqing, is also a victim." Lu Ming said, "Why are you in a hurry? It's not that you are not allowed to enter, but that you have to be quarantined first. Let Zhou Yuan go in first because we want to protect the two of them." It's for your own good to make a comparison of the sick body. Besides, Xiaoqing hasn't left yet."

After saying these words, Aaron was like a discouraged ball. His originally stiff shoulders collapsed and his hands were put down. He didn't speak any more, as if he had tacitly accepted the legitimacy of this reason.

But Zhou Yuan on the side almost jumped up in shock. When he heard the word "victim", his heart was in a mess, doubts and surprises kept churning in his heart.However, Lu Ming didn't give him a chance to speak, and pushed Zhou Yuan to the door of the emergency room, then turned to the two nurses and said, "Take him for isolation protection." The two nurses nodded, He walked over and dragged Aaron to another room.

"What the hell are you doing?" Zhou Yuan yelled in a low voice after entering the door: "What kind of victim am I? Why does that Aaron have such a damned expression when he sees the marks on my body?"

"Zhou Yuan, that's just an excuse, it's for your safety. Because you have similar symptoms to Xiaoqing's, now let Aaron think you have this disease, and he won't bother you anymore, understand? Xiaoqing Qing's symptoms are very complicated, not just fever and rash. And you don't have to worry too much, your symptoms are actually different from hers."

"It turned out to be like this, you frightened me to death." Zhou Yuan let out a long breath and said, "Your doctors are pretty good at deceiving people."

Lu Ming continued: "Xiaoqing's condition is not stable. Now we are only using drugs to maintain her life. She doesn't have much time. Therefore, some things must be clarified before she dies."

"What needs to be figured out?" Zhou Yuan was confused.

"You'll know when you see her."

Lu Ming stopped talking, pushed him to a large glass cabinet, took out gloves and a mask for him to put on, then put a hood on his head, then opened the second door and walked towards the inner room .

The emergency room is not too big. It is divided into two compartments, inside and outside. The outside is the preparation area. Zhou Yuan was led by Lu Ming into the second door, which is the operating room. Behind a row of white cloth curtains, a doctor wearing a mask nodded in greeting, handed the medical records in his hand to Lu Ming and walked out.

Seeing a person lying on the bed behind the curtain, the gray figure was very vague, and the room was filled with the smell of disinfectant, which smelled very weird through the mask.Zhou Yuan squeezed his fists to calm himself down, and then walked around the curtain.

When he saw the person lying on the bed, his breath became short of breath.

That should be the Xiaoqing they mentioned. At this time, the girl was lying on the bed, covered with a white quilt, half of her arm and a face were exposed outside, with a thick infusion needle stuck on her arm, and her gray hair There is no luster, and it hangs loosely around the face.And her face was the scariest, the whole face was covered with black spots, like scars from a fire, sunken one by one.There are vertical and horizontal wrinkles on the forehead, there seems to be no moisture under the skin, and the dry lips are purple and black and cracked.The eye sockets were sunken, and there was no light in the eyeballs.In that state, if it wasn't for the slight ups and downs of her chest, anyone would think that she was actually dead.

So miserable.This was the only thought in Zhou Yuan's mind when he saw her.

"When we were treating her, she kept saying something." Lu Ming whispered behind me.

"A word?"

"That sentence is only three words, who is he?"

"What do you mean?" Zhou Yuan still didn't quite understand, "What does this have to do with me?"

"Zhou Yuan, why was Xiaoqing sent here? I heard from Aaron that she was with a guest yesterday, and something happened to her after that person left. She was in shock when she was sent here in the morning, and she has been in a coma since she was rescued. In a coma, she had heart failure just now, but she suddenly woke up during the first aid, and began to repeat those three words non-stop. Who do you think he could be?" Lu Ming looked at Zhou Yuan and said seriously.

Zhou Yuan understood.The person Xiaoqing has been talking about is that Liu San. She must know that it is because of him that she became like this.So what did this guy do to Xiaoqing?
Thinking of this, Zhou Yuan felt an inexplicable fear in his heart, and asked, "What's wrong with Xiaoqing? AIDS?" He really couldn't imagine what kind of disease could make people like this?At the same time, there is still a faint doubt in my heart, who would order her table for a patient in this situation?

Lu Ming shook his head: "The symptoms of this disease are persistent high fever and rapid failure of body organs. AIDS is not so fast. Her body is too exhausted, and we have no time to do pathological tests. I don't know if we can do an autopsy later."

"Are all your doctors so rational? This man is not dead yet." Lu Ming's attitude made Zhou Yuan feel a little uncomfortable.

Lu Ming didn't care about Zhou Yuan's tone, and said: "Okay, time is running out, you go over and ask her what that man did to her, maybe you will know how she got this disease, which is right You're good too."

Zhou Yuan stood in front of Xiaoqing's bed helplessly, and saw the cables and tubes of various instruments protruding from her nose, fingers, and even the quilt she was covering. On the instrument, the electronic sound was beeping non-stop along with the shaking of her body.

It was the first time for him to see a dying person at such a close distance. The feeling that life was about to disappear was so strong that he felt an indescribable emotion, as if something in his heart had been touched.Zhou Yuan sighed secretly in his heart, and slowly approached her.

Getting closer to Xiaoqing's face, she felt even more terrifying. That face seemed to have no trace of a living person. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a zombie face. Only her lips seemed to be trembling slightly, but her eyes were always Closed tightly, it doesn't respond to anyone approaching at all,
Zhou Yuan reached out and moved his hand in front of her face, but she remained motionless.Lu Ming pointed to her ear, and said, "Come closer and tell me who you are, and then ask her questions, she should be able to hear you."

Zhou Yuan nodded, turned his face and carefully approached Xiaoqing's ear, and tentatively called out: "Hey."

It was not a loud sound, but Xiaoqing really had a reaction. First, she heard the heart rate monitor beside her start beeping, and the heart rate line on the screen gradually beat into a rapid wave shape, followed by her body. With some jitters.

"Who are you?" Her head moved a few angles, her mouth moved, and she struggled to utter these words.

The voice was so small that Zhou Yuan could hardly hear it clearly, so he could only tilt his body forward, and Xiao Qing raised his hand accordingly.Zhou Yuan subconsciously stretched out his hand to hold it, and said softly: "I am the driver of the gentleman who was with you yesterday. If you have anything to say, please tell me."

Even through the glove, Zhou Yuan was still a little surprised when he touched her hand, her hand was so hot!
"Who is he?" Xiaoqing asked.

"I don't know, I only know that his name is Liu San."

"He... who is he?"

Why is it still this sentence?Zhou Yuan thought for a while and said, "What did that man do to you?"

This time Xiaoqing didn't speak any more, panting in his chest: "I was cheated..."

Lu Ming suddenly lifted the clothes behind Zhou Yuan, revealing the rash on his body, and said to Xiaoqing: "He also has the same symptoms as you, so I hope you can tell us, what did that Liu San do to you?" what?"

Xiaoqing became more and more excited: "You were deceived too? I was deceived, deceived, deceived..."

She began to repeat this sentence non-stop, and her spirit gradually became excited with the repetition of the words.Then he turned his back and held Zhou Yuan's arm with great strength, not like a dying person at all.

Seeing something was wrong, Lu Ming hurriedly pulled Zhou Yuan's arm out of Xiaoqing's hand.At this time, Xiaoqing's trembling was so strong that she lifted the quilt, revealing her body.

This body does not have the youth and beauty that a young girl should have at all. The skin is full of gray and black spots, and there is a large dark red spot on the belly, which is like an abstract painting painted by hand, setting off her thin body. The body looked weird and terrifying under the shadowless lamp.

Looking at the rash, Zhou Yuan was disgusted and panicked at the same time. He also had the same inexplicable mark on his body, and a thought arose in his heart: Could it be true what Lu Ming said to Aaron at the door just now?Another victim yourself?
The movement of Xiaoqing's violent struggle caused the doctor outside the door to rush in, and quickly took out a syringe to inject Xiaoqing with something.Xiaoqing was trembling all over, muttering that sentence repeatedly in her mouth, the scene was very chaotic.Zhou Yuan couldn't help, so he had to retreat first.When I went out, I met Aaron. He was also wearing a mask and hood. Seeing Zhou Yuan's eyebrows moved, he wanted to say something.But Xiaoqing's hasty yelling in the room made him temporarily let go of Zhou Yuan and rushed in.

"Hurry up, give oxygen and do chest pressure." These were the last words Zhou Yuan heard Lu Ming say when he came out of the emergency room.The two young men at the door hurriedly stopped to ask about the situation. Zhou Yuan waved his hands to show that he didn't know, and left them to stand aside, only to realize that the clothes on his body had been soaked in cold sweat.

After taking off the hood and gloves, I found that my head was also covered with sweat, which was very greasy and uncomfortable.Zhou Yuan had no choice but to fan the wind with his hands, but Xiaoqing's expression and her last words were all in his mind.That feeling was so profound, he unconsciously repeated it in a low voice, over and over again.

After reading it a dozen times, Zhou Yuan stopped.

Death is like a lamp being extinguished. At this time, Xiao Qing wondered what the man lied to?money?Body?Or promise?

A thought suddenly popped into his mind.

Perhaps Xiaoqing was not cheated of some money by that man, but her life.
