Origin

Dean Wang once greeted the dean here, and Lin Qingming's medical expenses in arrears are not much, so the hospital has not yet urged him.

But the top priority is to find a way to make money. Among other things, the bed fee and Lin Qingming and Huang Ping's living expenses alone cost nearly 200 yuan a day.

Soon, the loading and unloading team will also be on holiday. The boss was kind enough to know that Wu Zhongyuan was short of money, so he contacted him with an errand. He went to Guangzhou with a large truck to help load and unload the goods along the way. Yuan, if the distribution is good, the owner can give a little more.

Wu Zhongyuan agreed, and went back to the hospital to say hello to Lin Qingming and Huang Ping before leaving.

"Brother, it's boring for you to lie down every day. These two books are left by the master. You can read them when you have nothing to do. It's very interesting." Wu Zhongyuan gave the book about catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits and his master's experience in practicing medicine to him. Lin Qingming.

Lin Qingming nodded, "Be careful when you go out, don't trust others."

Wu Zhongyuan agreed to come down, took his bag and went out, Huang Ping followed him out to see him off.

When he got to the elevator, Wu Zhongyuan gave Huang Ping the remaining 500 yuan on his body, "I really thank you so much during this time, you can't go back even for the Chinese New Year, you can keep this money, save it, and wait for me We will have money when we come back.”

Huang Ping took it, "I still have more than 300 here."

"Eight hundred is not enough, I will have half a month to come back," Wu Zhongyuan asked, "By the way, how is my brother treating you recently?"

Huang Ping was not very embarrassed, she lowered her head, "It's pretty good."

"Did he say anything to you?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again. He could see that Huang Ping was in a good mood recently, and there was a reason for this.

"I didn't say anything." Huang Ping was even more shy.

"A friend in need is a friend, if my brother's leg can be cured, he will definitely marry you." Wu Zhongyuan said.

"Even if he can't be cured, I'm willing to serve him forever." Huang Ping blushed, "Let's go, the elevator is here."

Wu Zhongyuan entered the elevator with a smile and left the hospital.

The car he was following was a big trailer with only one driver. The truck was pulling urgent goods that had to be dispatched before the Spring Festival. As long as it was urgent goods, the shipping fee would be high, which was almost two to three times the usual price. .

The driver is a middle-aged man in his forties, who looks like a driver, with a shiny face and a dirty body.

There was still a car to be dispatched during the Spring Festival, which made the driver full of complaints, cursing along the way, and his attitude towards Wu Zhongyuan was not very good.

Wu Zhongyuan was not as knowledgeable as him. He rarely traveled far, and spent most of his time looking at the scenery along the way, and he didn't talk to the driver very much. When he arrived at the distribution station, he didn't care about his business, just unloading and loading the goods.

Soon, the driver's attitude towards Wu Zhongyuan improved. The reason was simple. Wu Zhongyuan didn't care about other people's business. He didn't talk too much when the driver sometimes brought some private goods. When the driver negotiated the freight with others, he stayed away.

Those who run long distances have fixed places to eat. These places are not just for eating, but also for lodging. Accommodation is not just for lodging, there are other things.

He wasn't the only one who had a hard time, there were also many women who hadn't returned home after the New Year's Eve. At night, the whole building was full of moaning and babbling.

On the road again, there was an extra woman in the car. This woman was in her early twenties with heavy makeup. It's really sleeping, sometimes it's pretending to be asleep, anyway, it's silent.

After running for two days, the women got off the bus. These women seemed to be calling back and forth on this route. After getting off the bus, they greeted the drivers who stopped here very familiarly, and said some provocative obscenities, and wanted to talk to them again. hit the road.

The itinerary is controlled by the driver. He can stop wherever he says, and for as long as he says. Wu Zhongyuan doesn't care about it. Anyway, the return time is fixed, and he must return to Gao County in half a month.

The further south you go, the higher the temperature. Wu Zhongyuan came to the south for the first time, so he couldn't help being curious. Although he had seen some local customs and customs in the south on TV and mobile phones before, the feeling was still different when he saw it with his own eyes. The biggest feelings are three Firstly, there are more forests in the south than in the north, secondly, the roads in the south are narrower than in the north, and thirdly, the southerners like to drink soup, almost every meal.

The destination of this trip is Guangzhou. Guangzhou gave him the feeling that it is very big but very crowded. In addition, there are beards hanging from the tree trunks on both sides of the road. I only found out after asking the driver that this is a kind of banyan tree.

It was loaded with goods and started to return. After running for two days, something happened. After [-] o'clock in the evening, the truck was stopped when it passed a remote area.

There were five people on the other side, driving a broken car without a license plate, all wearing helmets, and holding sticks and machetes after getting out of the car, threatening the driver to get out of the car.

"After eight lifetimes of bad luck, it happened again." The driver was as frustrated as he could be.

"Don't go down." Wu Zhongyuan tried to prevent the driver from getting out of the car.

"Oh," the driver shook his head helplessly, "Don't worry, they don't kill people, they only want money."

The driver got out of the car first, and Wu Zhongyuan followed. When he turned to the left side of the vehicle, the driver was counting the money. Judging by the guy's demeanor, it seemed that similar things had happened before.

"How much do they want?" Wu Zhongyuan asked in dialect.

"Ten thousand," the driver said, "you have to testify for me when you go back, or the owner of the car will think I lied to him."

The two talked in dialect, but the robbers couldn't understand. Someone brandished a machete and told them not to play tricks in broken Mandarin.

Seeing the driver counting a lot of money, Wu Zhongyuan felt very distressed, "I'll beat them away for you, can you give me some money?"

The driver was in a bad mood and scolded impatiently, "There's no way to tell."

Wu Zhongyuan stepped back, and at the same time secretly took out his mobile phone, and by the light of the car lights, took pictures of the robbers with murder weapons and the driver counting the money.

Someone with sharp eyes noticed that Wu Zhongyuan was secretly filming, and rushed towards him, yelling and cursing. When he got close, he kicked Wu Zhongyuan, trying to knock Wu Zhongyuan down.

Wu Zhongyuan sprinted out with his right leg, and kicked the robber with his feet off the ground.

There is no need to have scruples when hitting bad guys, and I don't bother to use fists and kicks, just grab the opponent's golf club directly, don't hit the legs, just hit the head.

Although this group of people are all wearing helmets, they will be dizzy when they go down with a stick.

He didn't give up after hitting, and dragged to the front of the car to take off his helmet to take pictures. He took pictures of each one, and he didn't stop after taking pictures. He wanted to call the police.

These days, people are afraid of the police, good people are afraid, bad people are even more afraid, and begging for mercy is definitely not enough. Wu Zhongyuan hesitated, and he hesitated on purpose. In fact, he just wanted money.

Seeing that he was hesitating, the robber immediately took out the money, a satchel, all the money in it was taken out, it was thick and thick.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan's stare, the robbers mistakenly thought that he was too small, and someone took a handful out of his pocket.

Wu Zhongyuan walked over and grabbed it, "Get lost!"

The robber who robbed was robbed and left with a sad face.

The driver was worried that the robbers would go back and call someone, so he kept crying after getting into the car, and stepped on the gas pedal desperately.

After Wu Zhongyuan took the money, he began to worry that the robbers would call the police, so he kept his face sullen and silent.

After running for hundreds of miles, the driver finally felt relieved, and said with an embarrassed smile, "Little brother, I didn't expect you to be so secretive."

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head.

"Little brother, what's your last name?" the driver asked again.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head again. These days, the driver never asked his name, nor called his name. He always called him "Hey, come here."

"Thanks for having you." The driver said.

"It's nothing." Wu Zhongyuan responded casually.

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan didn't want to talk much, the driver didn't bother him.

After dawn, the driver stopped to eat, and Wu Zhongyuan threw the stick he had used earlier into the cesspit of the dry toilet, and took the opportunity to count the private expenses of last night, [-]!

With the money, Wu Zhongyuan immediately looked for a place to recharge his phone bill. On the third day of his departure, the monthly rent was deducted from his mobile phone, and he hadn't contacted Lin Qingming these days.

But for Chinese New Year, all the agencies are closed, and there is no place to recharge.He wanted the driver to help him, and used his mobile phone to charge online. After thinking about it, he decided to forget it. He didn't want the driver to know his phone number.

After breakfast, the two got into the car and continued on their way. The driver took out 1 yuan and said, "Little brother, this is for you."

Wu Zhongyuan looked at the money, but didn't take it immediately, "How much can the car owner earn this time?"

The driver didn't expect Wu Zhongyuan to ask this, so he was taken aback, but he still said, "There must be fifty or sixty thousand."

"How much can you earn in one trip?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

"It's just over 2 yuan." The driver said.

"Okay, let's split the money." Wu Zhongyuan said.

The driver was naturally happy, and gave Wu Zhongyuan [-], and kept [-] for himself, and then asked Wu Zhongyuan for the photos of last night to go back as evidence of "reimbursement". Wu Zhongyuan's mobile phone was in arrears, and the photos could not be sent, so the driver took pictures with his mobile phone Got two.

Knowing that Wu Zhongyuan is not an idler, the driver wanted to make friends with him very much, and called a woman to accompany him when he stayed at night. Wu Zhongyuan was not interested in her, but in her mobile phone, so he borrowed her mobile phone to make three calls, but this None of the three calls went through.

The first thing he called was Wang Xinran's cell phone, then Lin Qingming's cell phone, and finally Huang Ping's cell phone. Wang Xinran's prompt was to shut down, while Lin Qingming's and Huang Ping's were to prompt to shut down.

Wu Zhongyuan returned the mobile phone to the woman with a very ugly expression on his face. If Lin Qingming and Huang Ping's mobile phones were prompted to shut down, he would not be so nervous, because the three of them were already at the end of their ropes and did not even have enough living expenses, but both of them were turned off. This shows that the two people still have phone charges, but they just turned off their mobile phones artificially.

Something is wrong, something must have happened.

The woman had no eyesight, couldn't tell that Wu Zhongyuan was in a bad mood, so she moved forward, Wu Zhongyuan pushed her away, but she still refused to leave, until Wu Zhongyuan gave her 20 yuan, and then left cursing.

Wu Zhongyuan wished he could go back right now, but it was the Spring Festival right now, and there was no faster way to go back, so he could only urge the driver to go back as soon as possible, not pulling anything he could.

The driver didn't bother to distribute the goods any more. He only unloaded but not loaded along the way, and rushed back to Gao County two days later.

The owner of the car picked up the car and paid Wu Zhongyuan a salary of [-] yuan, not a single cent more. What he saw was not that he had earned double the usual amount, but that the two were robbed and lost [-] yuan.

Wu Zhongyuan took the money and rushed to the hospital immediately. He now has [-] in his hand. After paying back the money owed to the hospital, there should be some left over.

He rushed to the hospital without stopping, and returned to the ward in a hurry, only to find that Lin Qingming and Huang Ping were not there, and other patients were admitted to the ward.

Anxious in my heart, I immediately ran to the nurse's station, "Nurse, where is my brother?"

The nurse on duty knew him, "The patient left the hospital privately, and it's just in time for you to come back, so pay the hospitalization fee."

"Discharged?" Wu Zhongyuan stared in astonishment, "When did it happen?"

"It's been three or four days." The nurse was not very sure.

"Who will pick them up and leave the hospital?" Wu Zhongyuan asked eagerly.

"Wait a minute, I'm not on duty that day." After the nurse finished speaking, she called another nurse's name.

A little girl came out of the office. This person was the nurse on duty that day. According to this person, Huang Ping was not seen for a whole day on the day of the incident. At night, Lin Qingming disappeared. They checked the internal surveillance afterwards. , Lin Qingming left by himself after eleven o'clock.

After listening to the nurse's talk, Wu Zhongyuan first thought whether Huang Ping had been kidnapped, but on second thought, it was wrong, because no matter who it was, there was no motive for kidnapping Huang Ping.

The hospital was most afraid of being in arrears of medical expenses. Seeing him come back, the doctor also came out to persuade him to pay off the debt as soon as possible. Although he was very anxious, Wu Zhongyuan went to the first floor to settle the account. He spent less than 3000 yuan and left more than [-] yuan.

After paying the bill, Wu Zhongyuan returned to the floor where the ward was located. At this time, the doctors and nurses knew that he had settled the bill. A man of credit deserves respect from others. Knowing that he had lost contact with Lin Qingming, the doctors and nurses tried their best to recall the day details for his reference.

Huang Ping left the hospital in the morning. Before leaving, she called the canteen of the hospital and ordered a lunch for Lin Qingming.

This clue is very useful, which means that when Huang Ping left the hospital, she knew that she would not be back before noon.

There is another clue that is also very useful, that is, a nurse heard Lin Qingming's cell phone ringing on the night of the incident, which means that Lin Qingming answered a call and then left the hospital dragging his sick leg.

After getting useful clues, Wu Zhongyuan immediately went downstairs to recharge the phone bill, and sent a message to Zhao Ying, asking her to help find out the phone number that called Lin Qingming that night.

Soon, Zhao Ying got a reply. On the night of the incident, Lin Qingming answered a landline phone. The call lasted two minutes and 15 seconds. This landline phone was the office phone number of the Department of Surgery of Huang County Hospital.

Wu Zhongyuan immediately took a taxi to Huang County, and immediately called Dean Wang after getting in the car, asking him to help find out why the surgical inpatient department called Lin Qingming that night.

In less than 5 minutes, Dean Wang called, "A patient named Huang Ping accidentally fell from a building and was sent to our hospital for emergency treatment. The phone number, one is yours, and the other is the number you said."

After Dean Wang finished speaking, Wu Zhongyuan took a breath, "Falled? Where did he fall? Who is the murderer?"

"The incident happened in the office building of Guangyuan Garment Factory. The cause of the fall is still unclear. What is the relationship between this person and you?" Dean Wang asked.

"She is my sister-in-law, how is she doing now?" Wu Zhongyuan asked eagerly.

"It's not very good. The head injury is serious. Although it is not life-threatening, the patient has no obvious response to external stimuli and does not breathe spontaneously." Dean Wang said.

"What do you mean, Dean Wang?" Wu Zhongyuan was already in a daze.

"The possibility of brain death cannot be ruled out..."
