Chapter 14 Chapter Fourteen

"Then how can I do that?" Xiao Rui's face blushed again, "What if you surround me with that case?" I froze for a moment, not knowing what to say, so I had no choice but to pick up "Seeking Truth" and said, "Look, Luo Gan's article is really well written." Some people involved in mass incidents have no direct interests themselves. appeal, but to take the opportunity to vent the dissatisfaction that has accumulated for a long time. This social phenomenon is worth pondering', isn't this the best commentary on the case of Mr. Li falling from the building?"

After this sentence, we don't know what to say.Xiao Rui and I chatted silently for a long time. Later, Xiao Rui fell into a coma several times.For a week, she woke up almost in the morning, and passed out in the afternoon when the temperature was over 40 degrees, and she couldn't take off the oxygen mask. She often turned purple from lack of oxygen, which reminded me of "afternoon hot flashes". Word - Tuberculosis usually has a fever in the afternoon.But the test results did not support my judgment. Fortunately, Xiao Rui gradually recovered, and her body temperature gradually dropped, but she was so thin that only a handful of bones remained, and she couldn't even stand up.

The north wind was blowing that day, and the autumn night was getting colder every night. I actually disagreed with Xiaorui going out for a walk, but Xiaorui insisted on going out, so I had to carry her into the wheelchair and push her to the back garden. She caught cold and pressed the thick blanket on her lap. Standing behind Xiao Rui and pushing the wheelchair, seeing the character "eight" pressed by Xiao Rui's shoulder blades on the back of the chair, my nose felt a little sore.Xiao Rui casually picked the dandelions beside the wheelchair as if nothing happened. I was a little worried that Little Rui would lose her balance when picking dandelions, so I went around and helped her pick two. She blew dandelion seeds on my head childishly. I smiled and didn't move.

"Ask you something, okay?" I said seriously. "Tell me, why are you so polite today?" Xiao Rui blinked. "You're a local. Why haven't you seen your parents? You haven't seen them when you're sick." After finishing speaking, I hurriedly explained: "I'm not saying I don't want to take care of you, I just..." "My parents don't agree with my forensic medicine." Xiao Rui's face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost suddenly. "My parents are in business, and they want me to study economics or management. I have liked small animals since I was a child, and I think it can save lives and heal the wounded." They were very noble, and it was useless to cry in front of them a few times, so they reported it secretly. They were very angry at that time, and they became even more angry when they transferred to forensic medicine. They said that if you study forensic medicine, you should not recognize them as parents. One can only choose one.”

"Parents and children have no barriers to overcome. Maybe they will soften their hearts when they see you sick." I knew that I had poked a hornet's nest, and forced Xiao Rui to persuade Xiao Rui with an embarrassed smile. "You don't know them." Xiao Rui's face was like a piece of ice, "Old Zheng knew about this matter, and he came to persuade him a few times, but when he heard that it was the forensic doctor, he almost didn't call him out. This time, Old Zheng also called They told me to take care and asked me if I was short of money, but they never came to see it.”

I was speechless.It is difficult for an upright official to solve a housework case. It seems that this matter can only be resolved slowly with time. I was still in a daze, but I saw Xiao Rui covering her face and sobbing.I panicked, thinking that I shouldn't have mentioned Xiaorui's sadness, so I hurriedly asked what was wrong with Xiaorui, and it was inconvenient to hold her hand. I was at a loss when I saw Xiaorui slowly raised her head, her pale face With tears all over her face, she quietly asked, "Can I still get better?" It was a bit windy that day.Xiao Rui's black hair fluttered messily in the wind, reflecting her pale face and crystal clear tears.Xiao Rui, who was wrapped in a thick blanket in the wheelchair, really looked very weak and weak, so weak that it seemed that she would break if she was not careful.My nose was a little sore, and I yelled at Xiaorui to stop talking crows.

Xiao Rui's black hair fluttering in the wind that day was deeply imprinted in my mind.I thought Xiaorui was just being sad and unscrupulous, and I thought I had concealed her low white blood cell condition from Xiaorui, but in fact, that was the beginning of Xiaorui's concealment of her condition from me. Xiao Rui's body temperature finally returned to normal, and her physical strength is also gradually recovering.I was busy with cases and went to the hospital less and less. Later, I saw that she was able to take care of herself, so I didn't go to the hospital for a week or two.

I met Xiao Rui that day in the aisle of the bureau.Seeing her in good spirits, she is totally different from the bedridden one before, I am really happy for her from the bottom of my heart. "Come to work?" I asked with a smile. "I'm here to resign." Xiao Rui didn't look up. "What?" I couldn't believe my ears. "why?" "I'm here to resign." Xiao Rui raised her head and looked at me bravely. "Why?" My lips were trembling, there were so many words, I didn't know where to start. "I'm not suitable for forensic medicine." Xiao Rui suddenly lowered her head, her voice was like a mosquito.

"You went through so many hardships to become a forensic doctor, and now you say no, why?" I couldn't think of anything else. "My resignation report has been written, and I will hand it over to Bureau Wang later." Xiao Rui raised her head again and stared at my face. "Why resign? There must be a reason!" I was furious. "My health is not suitable to be a forensic doctor. If I continue to be a forensic doctor, I will only drag others down. Instead of occupying the position, it is better to give it to other people who can take on the task." Xiao Rui seemed to have been prepared for my reaction.

"Is it because of your illness this time? No one blames you? Everyone gets sick sometimes! Aren't you well now? Can you work?" I realized that Xiao Rui had just recovered from a serious illness, and my tone eased Quite a few, "Even if you haven't fully recovered yet, everyone can help you share a little. Don't worry too much." "Brother Hao." Xiao Rui's tone was so firm that there was no doubt about it, "I have my reasons for resigning. Anyway, I have made up my mind, so don't force me." I froze, speechless.Xiao Rui has too many reasons to resign, even resigning is only good for her, why should I stop others?

While I was downcast, Xiao Rui squeezed past me and left. Later I thought, Xiao Rui is a girl, and forensic medicine is not good, not to mention her family objected.After resigning, she can enter her own family business, which is much better than forensic medicine from any angle.The only thing I didn't expect was that I was so stupid, not ordinary stupid, just stupid at all. I thought about it for a long time that night, and felt that I had no reason to interfere with other people's decisions.I accepted the fact that Xiaorui was going to resign, and sent her a text message at 1 o'clock in the middle of the night, telling her that I didn't understand her decision, but respected her choice. She replied with two words: "Thank you." I then asked: "Have you found a job in the future? What are you going to do next?" "Go back to my hometown, Zhouzhuang. Be a doctor." The words on the phone screen flashed in front of my eyes. It couldn't pierce the darkness of the silent night, just like my cigarette butt. I sighed and didn't text back.Respecting her decision, I rolled over and fell asleep facing the wall. That night, I dreamed that in the south of the Yangtze River, where the white walls and blue tiles are like ink paintings, a woman wearing a bamboo hat was sitting by the bridge, singing softly with the flowing water. But I couldn't hear what she was singing. I woke up from the dream in horror, and saw that the time was only three o'clock in the morning.After that I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. I groped in the dark for a long time to find a cigarette and a zippo.The red light from the cigarette butt flickers on and off, like my breathing. Bless her.I spit out a smoke ring. Life without Xiaorui seems a bit difficult, but the days are still passing by.Sometimes I text her to ask how she is doing, usually she responds quickly, telling me about her life saving life, sometimes it takes a long time to reply, I think she must be busy saving a life- — That was the life I had experienced, and an angel in white clothes in a white coat often appeared in front of my eyes. Once she took the initiative to send me a text message, telling me that I saw a large group of people watching the fun on the road today, and when I got closer, I realized that it was a woman who was about to give birth.She pretended to be frustrated that her beloved's clothes were stained with amniotic fluid and dirty blood on the way to escort the mother to the hospital.But I know she was actually very happy at that time.My heart gradually let go, and I know that such days make her very fulfilled and happy. I secretly made up my mind to taper off the number of times I texted her.What should have passed will pass, and living in the past will not do you any good. Text messages are gradually decreasing, and maybe I will only send a text message every three or four days.But I still occasionally do some wrong things, such as calling out Xiao Rui's name to Weicheng.Weicheng deliberately pretended to be Xiaorui's voice and agreed crisply, but his face was full of ridicule.When I came back to my senses, I asked Weicheng with a stern face, if my arm is still undergoing physical therapy, and if it is better now.Weicheng had no choice but to blushed and said embarrassingly not yet, the effect of physical therapy didn't seem to be very good, maybe it will take a while. Weicheng's arm is already a classic joke in the team.It is said that one day Weicheng came to work with a grin, and claimed that he could not mention anything today.I was very concerned and asked how he got hurt. He blushed and said that he was watching TV with his wife, and suddenly wanted to hug her—and that was it. I immediately pretended to be surprised, and asked loudly: "Since Weicheng's wife is Weicheng's wife, why is Weicheng so anxious?" Immediately, a colleague next to him said in a strange voice, "Why is Weicheng in such a hurry?" Another old colleague coughed as if he had finished rehearsing, and said solemnly: "Please use your reasonable imagination to make a reconstruction of the scene that fits the course of the case." The entire technical squadron burst into laughter.Strange to say, Weicheng's arm has not healed for more than half a year, and physiotherapy is always ineffective, so people often make fun of him, asking whether he commits crimes so often that he does not heal for a long time. This is Weicheng's fatal injury, he will die if he touches it.But after teasing Weicheng, I couldn't help questioning myself. A thought that I had never thought of before suddenly appeared in my mind: Could it be that Xiao Rui felt that the trend of our relationship was wrong, and that resignation was a deliberate avoidance of me? It's time for me to forget about her, whichever way I do.I told myself.
