When Xia Huan's gunshot wound surgery ended, the sky had changed from day to night.
Yingzhi politely thanked Misco who offered to stay and help take care of Xia Huan, and stayed in the postoperative recovery room of Consumption Room F to take care of him personally.
However, in the short period of time before Xia Huan came out of the anesthesia and woke up, there was nothing Ying Zhi could do for him.So he just took the book, sat next to a bunch of instruments monitoring vital signs, and passed the time while waiting for Xia Huan to regain consciousness.
After a while, Eiji, feeling thirsty, got up and went to the reception room outside, intending to make a pot of coffee, but unexpectedly heard a knock on the door—knock, knock, knock, echoing in the empty office, seeming Very weird.
Eiji looked up at the electronic clock on the wall, which pointed to eleven o'clock at night.It's this time, why would someone come to your door?
"Hello, can you hear me?"
A weak female voice came through the door.
"Doctor Ouyang? Hello...are you in there?...It's me, Ann Marie."
Frowning, this uninvited guest was almost equated with the word "trouble" in Yingzhi's mind.He considered whether he should pretend not to hear - if he had stayed in the recovery room, he would never have heard her calling at the gate.
No, I'd better answer the door.
Yingzhi believes that in order to deal with Bened's funeral, Ann Marie is said to be very busy at the moment, and she is no longer in a state of confusion and confusion.But she took the time to come here, maybe there is something special... A wry smile appeared on the corner of Yingzhi's lips, hoping that there would be no more gun barrels this time, and walked towards the gate.
He unlocked the door with a click, and when the door opened, An Mali opened her eyes, which were obviously red and swollen from crying, and caressed her chest in relief.
"Oh, Doctor Ouyang..."
She leaned forward and grasped Eiji's hands tightly, and said apologetically:
"I, I almost died of fright when I heard the stupid thing that Fan Pio did. I'm sorry, I hope that person... uh... Mr. Xia's injury is not serious?"
"The operation is over, he will be fine." Eiji replied flatly.
"That's great." She breathed a sigh of relief, then shook her head and said, "No, no, it's not 'good' at all, the whole thing is not good at all. Sorry about the shooting— Vampio was too reckless, too impulsive. It's all my fault - I was too depressed to pay attention to my surroundings at the time because of Daddy, and I didn't even notice Vampio disappeared. If I knew he came alone and shot Qiu, I will definitely stop him."
Didn't Piompio say that this was a trick he and Master Benede came up with to prevent them from being deported and to "repay their kindness" by shooting?This question flashed through Yingzhi's mind, and Ann Marie continued to say:
"He went back to my family's chapel with a gun, back to Daddy's spirit, and when he reported to Daddy, I happened to be kneeling in front of the prayer chair, and he didn't see it. So I heard everything that happened. I'm sorry, that fool went his own way..."
"Didn't Master Bened tell you about this?"
"That's right, Daddy did tell him...but that should be announced to you in advance, and then teamed up with blank ammunition and plasma to stage a fake shot scene for the people of the F Foundation to see." Ann Marie Sighing, "At that time, Daddy excitedly mentioned this idea before the operation, looking like a naughty child."
Eiji thought of the gentlemanly and playful silver-haired old man who pretended to eat his own tofu during the doctor's visit - those clear eyes really looked like an innocent and frivolous boy.
"It's a pity that your father's operation did not have a good result."
An Marie wiped the tears from her eyes. "Well, me too... I hope this is a nightmare. When I wake up from the dream, Daddy is still by my side, making fun of me crying now."
At this time, what is most needed is not comfort, but listening.Eiji chose to remain silent, allowing her to settle the vivid memories of her father in her mind, allowing her tearful eyes to freely flow out the sadness in her heart, and allowing her time to clear the choking in her throat again and rebuild the smile that held back the tears.
"I'm sorry, I've been crying all the time lately, and I'm tired of crying..." She twisted her nose with a handkerchief, and then said, "Anyway, Mr. Xia's injury is not serious, so I'm relieved. I know, let's go No amount of apology can make up for the harm that Fan Pio's actions have brought to Mr. Xia, and I dare not ask you two to forgive him—but if I don't do anything, I will feel even more sorry, so..."
She pulled out a stack of documents from her handbag and said:
"This is the confidential document that Fan Pio prepared to destroy when he sorted out Daddy's belongings. I took it out from it. Maybe this can help you a little bit to understand the environment you are in now. Also, this is mine The phone number, my connections are not as strong as my dad’s, but I also know some friends, if you have any troubles in Europe in the future, just ask me, maybe I or my friends can help.”
She bowed deeply again and said: "Please apologize to Mr. Xia again on my behalf. You can't blame anyone for Daddy's matter, and Pampio knows this too. When he calms down in the future, I will definitely ask for it." For this act of venting his anger, he solemnly visited the door again to apologize."
The scene in front of me was somewhat familiar.The eldest lady and her former housekeeper seem to have reversed roles.But Eiji thinks this is not so surprising.In the face of major accidents, most women will show more resilience and perseverance than men.
"It's very late, I think you should go back to rest early, Miss Ann Marie."
Yingzhi didn't bother to tell her that for "wanted criminals" like them, it was unknown whether he and Xia Huan would be able to stay in this country even if they came next time. "future".
"It's about time I went back to the recovery room to check on him."
"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot that I was taking up your precious time, doctor, so I'm leaving now." She put away her handbag in a panic and said, "Please keep those documents in a safe place, and don't let others see them." to them, or I'm afraid I'll cause you more trouble."
The words "more trouble" made Eiji raise his eyebrows slightly.Should I accept these documents myself?
"Ah, don't be intimidated by my words. I believe that as long as you keep it well, I can definitely help you. I promise. Then, I'm leaving. Good night, Dr. Ouyang."
After seeing off Ann Marie, Eiji picked up the document bag she gave her and returned to the recovery room with the hot brewed coffee.He first put the documents and cup aside, and when he leaned over to check Xia Huan's condition, the man lying quietly on the bed moaned "Hmm...", frowned, and opened his eyelids slightly.
Finally sober.
Eiji waited patiently for his out-of-focus eyeballs to slowly come together and recognize his own face.
"Yeah...so thirsty..."
The man moaned hoarsely with his non-rotating tongue.
Raising the corners of his lips: "Only those who are alive will want to drink water. You should be very happy that you are still thirsty. Congratulations, you have recovered your life from the gun."
"Yes...your bullet pendant...can be an extra souvenir."
Who wants such bloody souvenirs.
"Stop crying, baby."
Eiji raised half of his eyebrows. "You are not out of anesthesia, it is not surprising that you have hallucinations."
"If you dare to say that the tears in your eyes...the tears he scolded...are my hallucinations...I will chop off my head...and give it to you as a wine glass." The man forced an evil smile from his half-numbed face and muscles. .
It's not an ancient tyrant, who would drink with that kind of thing!Eiji moved his face closer, "You can see clearly, there is not even a tear in it."
He wouldn't cry because Xia Huan escaped the blow of the God of Death, he would spend his crying energy on snatching his man back from the God of Death.
"Um……"
Xia Huan raised her limp hands to cover Yingzhi's cheeks, closing the distance between the two of them until he could kiss his lips with a chirp—he did the same, and then grinned.
"Well...you didn't cry...I did."
Xia Huan pressed against his lips and muttered, "Please...before I die of thirst...use your saliva...to drown me, Xiao Zhizhi."
Yingzhi has never seen a man who likes courting death more than Xia Huan——
"Shut up."
He didn't want to hear Xia Huan say that ominous word again, so he had to fulfill him... The four lips were tightly glued together, Yingzhi's fiery tongue sent a large amount of saliva into Xia Huan's mouth, pampering this person who walked through the gate of hell without reservation A lover who came back.
