Chapter II Hospitals and Patients
Tokyo, Fukukyo District, Tori University Affiliated Hospital.
The next afternoon.
There was still drizzling rain in the sky outside. The walls on all sides blocked the rain curtains, but they could not hide the sound of rain echoing everywhere... The rain was weaker than yesterday, but it continued.
The damp breath seemed to pass through the gaps in the window glass, mixed with the warmth in the room, which was lingering and moldy, as if the moldy one was the nerve endings of the human being.
Although it is already a very spacious separate ward.
After all, it is the plum rain season. If it is not so lingering, then it will no longer be called "Plum Rain".
There may be dull thunder in the distance.
Fu Jixianli was half lying on the hospital bed, staring at the gloomy sky outside the window in a daze. His current identity is a bit difficult to describe, in short, if it is simply...
Twenty-one, a student.
Well, it's actually a patient.
Fu Jixianli, who has a background in studying in the United States, encountered a serious car accident on the other side of the Pacific Ocean five months ago, and his life was hanging on the line and he fell into a coma.
After receiving effective treatment in the local area and the situation stabilized slightly, he was taken back to Tokyo, who was still unable to wake up.
Another month later, he woke up from the surprise of his family and doctors, and until recently, he had recovered his basic ability to move.
However, this is just one angle of the story. If you describe it from another perspective, the situation will be completely different - "Fu Jixianli" just becomes Fu Jixianli as soon as you wake up.
He has been living his daily life, and when the sun rises the next day, he comes to the island country and becomes another completely unrelated person.
No matter what I think, this matter is an exaggeration beyond understanding.
So during the period of time in the hospital, he was not so much treating his injuries on his body, but rather doing mood sorting.
However, after thinking about it, there is nothing to worry about in the end. Similar things will eventually be attributed to one answer - it is nothing more than "Since you can't, then" or "be born and live".
"In other words, modern technology still seems very powerless when coping with climate, especially when coping with some extreme climates."
So his complaint about the weather seems to refer to more than the weather.
"Mr. Fu Jixian, the weather will not improve until tomorrow, but the rainy season is coming to an end.
Will there be a tingling feeling in the wound? The human body will not forget the trauma you have suffered so easily. The weather is an objective matter, and you can only endure this kind of discomfort."
The middle-aged nurse Okada, who was staying in the ward to clean up the equipment, heard Fu Jixianri's sigh, looked out the window and said this.
Fu Jixianli has been in this hospital for quite a long time, so the relatively familiar staff will speak casually, at least not so formulaic.
The rainy weather did make Fu Jixianli feel a deep sting, but this problem is not something that needs to be dealt with in medicine. It can only be tolerated and cannot be treated - the main reason is that he went out to rain last night.
"Severe concussion, multiple complex fractures in the body... I can almost be regarded as a medical miracle when I can recover to my current level, so these tingling sensations are more like 'proof of living'."
Because the impact of the accident was too surprising, Fu Jixianli didn't care much about the accident itself.
Unfortunately, Nurse Okada in the ward is neither a nurse sister nor a nurse sister, but an aunt nurse. Although in a place like a hospital, excellent skills are always more worthy of choice than the "pleasant" on the surface, but what should I say...
Tokyo is actually not as hot as he thought, which is disappointing.
The nurses in the hospital may not be young and beautiful, and the young and beautiful nurses may not be surnamed Nanase.
"Mr. Fu Jixian, your physical test results have come out yesterday, and the numerical values have returned to normal, and there is no problem."
"Well, so I can be discharged from the hospital at the scheduled time...it should be the day after tomorrow."
In addition to having limited activities and having some metal parts on his body, it is difficult to go through security checks when taking a plane, Fu Jixianli is now healthy.
"I will come over to pick me up at that time."
The key is that from the treatment and recovery level, it doesn't make any sense for him to stay in the hospital anymore.
Fu Jixianli was not worried about leaving the relatively familiar environment immediately. He even hoped to be discharged from the hospital earlier because...
His eyes glanced at a newspaper next to the bed, and most of the pages on the unfolded page described a certain event that happened yesterday in detail - the content roughly described a vicious dismemberment incident somewhere in the city last night.
The strange thing is that three witnesses claimed that they saw a mysterious man dealing with the "zombies" at that time, which made the news not like news but like a story...
Well, how do you say it? It is written with a nose and eyes. The photos of the incident scene published in the newspaper also look very familiar.
"Does Mr. Fu Jixian also pay attention to this kind of news?"
Nurse Okada asked after noticing his sight.
"The previous content seems to be just a simple criminal incident, while the subsequent content is almost strange, so in general, this news should be evaluated in this way...
Fake news."
After brewing the correct expression and then adding appropriate hand movements, Fu Jixianli said these two mysterious words.
"Maybe it's guiding the direction of public opinion. Urban legends are always better than sensational social security incidents."
Then he continued to express his opinions in a completely savored way, just as this matter had nothing to do with him.
No one can notice any problem with his current attitude. After all, if it was "role play" last night, then it would be "role play" with a lower rank.
"But police came to this hospital early this morning and heard that the incident in this news was related to a body that had been lost in the hospital... It seems that the crime scene is not very far from here."
"...Is there such a coincidence?" This news made Fu Jixianli stunned for a moment.
Do Japanese police have such high efficiency in action? If it is just because of the corpse, it is okay, but if it is to investigate the "murderer"...
No, this does not conform to objective laws. Isn’t the police characters appearing in strange stories or supernatural stories a conventional way of acting as victims? Can they still play a key role?
"It should be a coincidence."
Just as Fu Jixianli was about to say something, his cell phone vibrated. He picked up his cell phone and looked at the newly received message, and immediately ended the topic.
"I'll go out for some breath."
"This...at this time?"
The light rain outside continued.
"Just go outside for some breathing, and I feel a little stuffy in the room."
"Please be careful, especially don't get wet in the rain. Mr. Fu Jixian is about to be discharged from the hospital. I definitely don't want the hospital stay to be postponed." Seeing that Fu Jixianri insisted, Nurse Okada refused to stop after a little reminder.
"I understand," Fu Jixianli stood up and stretched, then walked towards the door.
"I just don't know what the weather will be like the day after tomorrow."
"Don't worry, it must be a sunny day."
Nurse Okada smiled. At this moment, her round face reminded Fu Jixian of the canteen aunt who gave him a spoonful of vegetables every time in junior high school. This kind of intimacy is unforgettable.
"Since Nurse Okada said this, it will definitely be sunny the day after tomorrow." So he said with emotion.
"No, it's not what I said, but the weather forecast says so... the probability of precipitation after the day is only 2%.
“…”
So the aunt is really a magical creature. When you are rarely immersed in emotions, she actually starts to talk about science.
