Chapter 14 The Clue of Another Interruption
The next day at noon, Su Bai rarely left the school and took the bus and arrived at the entrance of Nanjiang No. 1 Hospital.
Looking up at this crowded building, it was a little white during the day, which was much less yin than at night, making it more reassuring.
This time I came to the hospital mainly to fulfill the elderly’s wishes.
He has called the old man’s son several times since yesterday, but he has always been unanswered. It is meaningless to continue to waste time.
The old man basically knew nothing about his son's situation except that he was named Ge Ningjian.
After my son said he wanted to go out for a while, he never came back. He just brought back a sum of money regularly so that the elderly can live without worries about food and clothing.
But money cannot relieve the longing.
The clues that can be found now are probably only some information in the hospital.
He rubbed his face, adjusted his expression before walking into the hospital.
"Hello, I'm looking for a patient who lives here," he found a front desk in the hall to receive patients, pretending not to know what happened yesterday, and thought for a while, "I'm called Ge Hongqiang, I don't know which ward he lives in?"
"It's Ge Hongqiang again?" The front desk girl's expression was a little strange, "Who are you?"
"I am a junior of him. I heard that he has been in the hospital for a long time, so I came to visit him specifically." He smiled.
"Sorry, he passed away yesterday." The front desk girl lowered her head and clicked on the computer, then lowered her voice and muttered, "These ones, I haven't seen anyone since I was hospitalized for so long, but I'm so active now."
She probably didn't expect that Su Bai would hear what she said with extraordinary hearing, but he didn't expose it. He just thought that he didn't hear it. After thinking for a while, he asked, "It's such a pity..."
"By the way, I heard that a nurse took care of him during his lifetime. I wonder if I could see her?"
"This..." The front desk girl hesitated a little, then nodded, "Yes, but it's best not to disturb their work. Let's talk about anything when they have free time."
After receiving the news, he walked through the hall to the hospitalization building at the back.
According to the front desk, the nurse should be taking care of the old lady in ward 1207 today.
"Wait...1207?"
His steps as he stepped up the steps suddenly paused, his expression slightly subtle.
Isn’t it just the old man from the ward that he ran into last night?
"This is a coincidence..."
When he walked up the second floor, he suddenly heard a noisy sound.
This shouldn't happen in a hospital ward where it should be resting quietly.
He stood at the stairs and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw the doors of wards 1207 and 1208 open. The old lady I saw last night was standing at the door, shouting at the patients and doctors and nurses in the aisle.
"There's really a ghost! I saw it yesterday!"
"Just here...you see, it's this ward! There is a black man covered in body, like a legendary ghost messenger, who came to capture Old Man Ge's soul!"
Su Bai's face looked a little subtle, and he walked over slowly without saying a word.
Fortunately, not many people believed this kind of words. Two older and more experienced nurses came forward to try to persuade the old lady to go back to her room to rest, not to say some strange things here, and disturb other patients to rest.
The doctors rubbed their temples with some headaches, considering whether the old lady had Alzheimer's disease and whether she wanted to diagnose the disease.
The other patients watched the old lady shouting like a fun, and they all thought she was crazy.
Su Bai walked around the crowd in a low-key manner and came to the door of 1208 to take a look.
The door was open, and there were two fresh-looking white bouquets placed beside the bed, and a nurse was tidying up the things inside.
The old lady at the door of the ward 1207 was finally persuaded to go back, but she was still muttering words like "I'm not crazy, everything I said is true."
After the people around gradually dispersed, Su Bai walked into the ward of 1207 and knocked on the door.
The old lady who was still sulking inside and the young nurse who was bent down to make the bed looked back at him, a little confused.
"What's up?"
Su Bai greeted politely: "I'll bother you, I want to ask about some things about Mr. Ge next door..."
A few minutes later, he formally spoke to the nurse named Liu in the corridor.
"Are you here to find Grandpa Ge?" She wiped the sweat from her forehead as soon as she had just finished using the medicine for the old man, and asked in confusion.
"Well," Su Bai noticed the details, "You said... someone has come to him before?"
"Yes, a few people came earlier than you this morning, saying they were here to help with the old man's funeral..." Nurse Liu nodded slightly.
"That's how..." Su Bai was a little surprised. He remembered that the old man said that he had no close relatives.
But let's not talk about this issue for the time being, he did not forget the main purpose of his coming today.
"I'm here this time mainly to ask you how much do you know about his son?"
"Why do you need to inquire about this? He owes you money and won't pay it back?" Nurse Liu was a little wary.
There are many people in the hospital, and there are many warm and cruel things, and she has seen many of them.
Many people who repay the debts of the father and the son and the father who repay the debts of the father and the debts of the father and the loan owes that cannot be paid are committed suicide by taking poison.
Su Bai laughed silently and grabbed his hair: "No, no, no, you misunderstood. I am a junior of Mr. Ge. Before, he gave me some important things to keep and asked me to hand them over to his son. Now what I want is to find out where others are first."
In order to prove it, he took out Ge Hongqiang's "authorized" proof documents, temporarily dispelling her doubts.
"That's it, but you may be disappointed because I don't know much about his son's situation." Nurse Liu thought about it carefully and shook his head.
"Grandpa Ge was admitted to the hospital three years ago. His biggest pleasure every day was to call his son, as if speaking could relieve the pain in his body."
"Can the phone call be connected before?" Su Bai was a little surprised.
Nurse Liu nodded: "Yes, it can be connected at the beginning. However, no one usually picks up during the day. You have to wait until it is very late at night and try a few more times before it will be connected sometimes. His son seems to be very busy and tired outside. Even if it is connected, he usually hangs up after not saying a few words."
"But even so, Grandpa Ge is already satisfied."
"It was not until it started about a year ago, and no one answered the phone call again. It was always busy. Grandpa Ge's condition gradually worsened from that time."
"But although the phone can't be reached, his son will send some gifts and money every once in a while, or two or three weeks to ensure that he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing."
Su Bai thought for a while and asked, "Is there any other news? For example, where does that son work? What career do he do?"
"I don't know much about this." Nurse Liu shook his head blankly.
Su Bai suddenly thought of something: "By the way, is the package sent by the other party still there? Can you show it to me?"
Nurse Liu recalled: "It seems that there is still this one. I'll go find it. You can wait here first."
She walked towards the hall downstairs, and soon she trotted back, holding a few things in her hand.
"These are the packages I have been in the last few times. The letters inside were kept by Grandpa Ge himself. Others such as clothes and health products were given to other patients and doctors and nurses for free. I have found one to come back now."
Su Bai thanked her, took it and took it and took a closer look.
Although the logistics order on the back of the package is somewhat broken, you can still see the sender's address clearly.
As he expected, as long as he could find this address, he might get some clues.
But what surprised him was that the sending address was actually overseas?!
Although the world of the new era has experienced some continental plate drift combinations that are different from the old era, and the country has only one unified alliance, it also has divisions of various regions.
This made Su Bai's heart suddenly feel cold.
If he really wanted to go overseas to search for traces, the high air ticket price or the time cost was a natural barrier that was almost insurmountable, which made him discouraged.
"It seems... I can only come to an end for the time being."
He thought without regret.
After recording the address, he returned the package and turned around and left the hospital.
I originally thought that I could earn another merit to fulfill this wish and add bricks to my own strength, but it seemed that it was still a long way off.
"You still have to start from another place and find out if there are any ghosts that can be contained for me."
Even if other ghosts don’t give 50 merit points like Ge Hongqiang, even if they are more than ten or twenty, it is good to accumulate a small amount.
He didn't rush to go back to school, so he was walking aimlessly on the street, and he relieved his depressed mood in recent days.
Looking at the fashionable and beautiful beauties walking around, looking at the cute and playful children, and looking at the pure white clouds in the sky, they all made him feel much more comfortable.
But at this moment, his keen intuition as a Yin Guan made him realize something was wrong.
"It seems like someone is following me?"
He pretended to stop inadvertently at the door of a milk tea shop to pretend to buy milk tea, while scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes.
Soon, he discovered the suspected target.
Two young men in casual clothes.
He was walking around the crowded passenger flow, but he would not leave his 100-meter range, and his eyes even looked at him intentionally or unintentionally.
To be honest, if he did not have the keen perception ability of the Yin Guan, he might not have noticed such behavior at all.
"I'm being targeted?"
