Chapter 58 Hospital (1)

I exchanged a questioning glance with Wen Jiubo, though he didn't seeup

”Let's go and take a look”

I nodded, pushi+ng open the roo, there was just a bed as if specially prepared for special patients Next to the bed was an electrocardiograph which beeped steadily A doctor stood next to theonto a record book My second aunt stood to the doctor's side

However,on the hospital bed That's right,stiffly straight on top, with her knees bent and folded beneath her chin, curling herself into a ball My grandhtly, her entire face was buried in her palms, and her hair had come loose No matter how you looked at it, she looked like an asylum patient

She was, however, very quiet, not crying ora ruckus Instead, she rand than when she was e scene before

”…was she already like this when you brought her in?” The doctor standing to one side of the bed asked

”No, not at all Before we brought her in, she was screa and even scratched me” My second aunt showed the doctor the bloody mark on the back of her hand ”But we don't knohy, after we brought her in and she woke up, she became like this Hands across her face and no one can prise them open…”

The doctor nodded, noting a couple of words down on the record book, lifting their head to say, ”Noted For the moment we've already done some basic tests and your mother seems fine physically It's likely that it's a o and contact a psychiatrist to take a look at your mother, is that okay?”

My second aunt nodded, her eyes reflecting her exhaustion ”Thank you for that, doctor”

The doctor packed away the book as if wanting to leave but then seeh, is there so with the old lady's throat?”

Throat? I looked towards randmother didn't seem to have any problems with her throat

”Is anything wrong?” my second aunt asked

”After the old lady ca were quite hoarse and she also didn't speak apart froe so I looked into it a little,” the doctor explained, ”I discovered that it seems like her voice box is injured Is this a problem she's had from before?”

”Oh… now that you mention it, I think it is” My second aunt frowned, considering ”It's so from before”

”Then do we need to get a doctor froical department to take a look?” the doctor asked

”There's no need for that, I don't want to cause trouble” My aunt said, apologetically ”It's an old problem for her, it's okay”
