C7 (1/2)

Afraid of being followed along the way, I took several buses and arrived at the hospital before dark.

When I came in the morning, I was at the rescue center.

But when I went back, the nurse looked stunned.

”Wang Jinshui?” There's no one like him. ”

I was even more confused than the nurse, but luckily I'd been scared out of my wits in the afternoon and hadn't broken down so easily.

I described my father's time and room, and the nurse checked the book and then looked at me.

”The person you're talking about was originally going to the morgue on the 7th floor, but he had a red letter sent down by our leader. ”Anyway, he has been taken away. Are you a relative?”

”Yes, I'm her daughter.”

”Impossible, you don't even know your father's name, how can you prove that you are a direct relative?”

The nurse looked at me like I was crazy.

”Then what name did he register?” I asked.

”This injured person was personally arranged by our leader himself. We cannot divulge this information to anyone.” The nurse looked at her watch. ”His relatives were here half an hour ago.”

”Are they two women?” If it's true, then one is Shuyue and the other is my mother.

”Yes.” The nurse turned and went back to her room.

I sat alone in the hospital corridor.

My dad even lied about his name.

Since I was young, my mom has told me that my father is called Wang Jinshui. Shuyue told me that my father is called Wang Jinshui.

No matter how big my brain is, it's impossible for me to check my dad's ID card.

They suggested that everyone should check their parents' ID cards.

Maybe there's another big secret waiting for you.

It was time for dinner, and a group of nurses passed me with their lunch boxes.

”Follow me.”

A nurse walked past me, wearing a mask.

It was Shuyue's voice.

He followed Shuyue through the corridor of the hospital, went around the elevator and entered the fire escape staircase.

I looked around. ”Where's my mother?”

”Don't look back. ”Don't ask anything.”

I followed her downstairs, around the emergency lobby, and out the back door of the hospital.

Shuyue stopped a taxi and pushed me in.

”What the hell is going on?”

She ignored me and took off her mask. Her eyes were still red and swollen as if she had just cried. Without looking at me, she pulled something wrapped in a plastic bag out of her pocket.

”This is your father's memento.”

The plastic bag was hot from Shuyue's body heat. I opened the bag and saw that it was a brand-new bag of change. There was one yuan, five yuan, and ten yuan.

The money was neatly stacked according to its value and was entangled with rubber bands. Half of it had already been dyed dark red by the dried blood, so the money that was stuck together could not even be torn.

My tears fell. The anger and suspicion against my father vanished with the tears.

A few days before my father's accident, he called to ask if I had enough pocket money.

”It's enough, but every time you put a hundred dollars in a book, you can't find it anywhere. You can't take a bus.” I said casually.

Just a sentence that I would immediately forget and unintentionally say.

My father, however, was concerned. The next day he went to change his change, and before he died, he kept it close to his heart like a treasure.

Even my coquettish words were firmly engraved in my heart.

How could my father, who was like this, be a stranger who was not related to me by blood and only knew how to lie to me?

But now it was too late. My father will never come back.

Thinking of this, I suddenly shouted.

”I want to get off!” He stopped the taxi and said, ”Where's my mom? I'm going to look for her.”

I jumped off the car, and Shuyue opened the door and stood in front of me.

”You can't go back.” Shuyue held my hand, ”Your mother had already disappeared when I was at the hospital. I've already searched all the possible places, it's not safe to go back.”

”Let go, let go, only my mother is left,” I struggled to shake off Shuyue's hand. ”My mother is in danger, wuu, I can't not have no mother anymore.”
