It was lunch break. When Qiao Liang and Lu Qian went upstairs, they saw Sister Li, who was responsible for taking care of Zhang Mei, sitting on the bench in the corridor outside the ward making a phone call. When they saw Qiao Liang coming, Sister Li After being stunned for a moment, he quickly hung up the phone and walked towards Qiao Liang.
"Mr. Qiao, you are here." Sister Li greeted Qiao Liang respectfully.
Qiao Liang nodded to Sister Li and asked, "How is Zhang Mei doing recently?"
"It's still the same, there hasn't been much change anyway," Sister Li said.
Hearing this, Qiao Liang walked to the ward. As soon as he reached the door, Qiao Liang saw Zhang Mei lying on the bed and giggling at her mobile phone.
Seeing Zhang Mei holding the mobile phone, Qiao Liang was slightly startled, and walked to Zhang Mei. When she saw that Zhang Mei was playing cartoons on her mobile phone, Qiao Liang glanced at Zhang Mei, then turned to look at Sister Li, " Sister Li, can Zhang Mei know how to read her cell phone now?"
"Yes." Sister Li stepped forward and explained, "I was a little bored with her in the ward once, so I sat next to the hospital bed and played cards with my mobile phone to pass the time. Then when she saw my mobile phone, she suddenly started grabbing it. At first, I didn’t know she wanted a cell phone. It wasn’t until she kept pointing at it and yelling that I knew she wanted a cell phone. Then I tried to give the phone to her. After she took it, she saw fresh toys like a child. Just like that, we started playing happily."
"Really?" Qiao Liang looked at Zhang Mei thoughtfully.
"No, I feel like she is like a three-year-old child now. Everything she sees is fun, and she treats mobile phones as toys. Later, I saw that she seemed to be interested in mobile phones, so I tried to get some old ones from home. Give her a mobile phone to play with, and she can sometimes sit and play for a long time without moving." Sister Li said with a smile.
"Then what does she play?" Qiao Liang asked again.
"She just plays around, messing around on the screen, and sometimes throws her phone around like a toy. Anyway, looking at her appearance, I wouldn't say she's better than before. She still feels the same. Too much. After giving her a mobile phone, she is now obsessed with it. Especially when I find that every time I play cartoons or TV series for her, she can sit and watch them for a long time, and then she keeps giggling without knowing what she is laughing at. ." Sister Li replied.
When Qiao Liang heard Sister Li's words, she stared at Zhang Mei without blinking. Zhang Mei actually started to know how to play with her mobile phone. This was beyond Qiao Liang's expectation, although Sister Li said that Zhang Mei just used her mobile phone to watch TV series and giggled. , sometimes he presses the phone randomly and throws the phone around like a toy, but Qiao Liang always feels that things are not that simple.
The night Zhang Mei disappeared, she walked back home and was able to open the password lock on the door. Qiao Liang was a little suspicious. Now that Zhang Mei was looking at her phone, Qiao Liang couldn't help but think, Zhang Mei Has Mei regained some sanity?
While Qiao Liang was deep in thought, Lu Qian on the side suddenly said, "Zhang Mei looks a little better than before, at least she is no longer so confused."
"She is an adult and has the same mind as a three-year-old child. What good can she do?" Qiao Liang shook his head.
"Well, from our point of view, we may think that she is pitiful like this, but thinking about it on the other hand, it would not be a bad thing if she could always be as carefree as a child, at least she would not have to suffer the hardships of life. It’s hard.” Lu Qian said softly.
"What kind of emotion are you talking about? It sounds like you have experienced a lot of suffering." Qiao Liang looked at Lu Qian angrily. He obviously didn't want Zhang Mei to be like this. Even if the two of them had no feelings, Qiao Liang I also hope Zhang Mei can return to normal.
"When I meet you, it will be a disaster in my life." Lu Qian angrily stepped on Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang smiled helplessly, this girl would fight if she disagreed, but now Qiao Liang was not in the mood to argue with Lu Qian. His attention was focused on Zhang Mei again, and there was always a little doubt in his heart.
Turning to look at Sister Li calmly, Qiao Liang said, "Sister Li, you can go and rest for a while now. Zhang Mei will be watched by me, so you don't have to worry."
"Mr. Qiao, thank you. I just went out to relax for a while." Sister Li said.
"Well, you go ahead." Qiao Liang nodded.
Watching Sister Li leave, Qiao Liang walked over and closed the door. Then he walked to Zhang Mei's hospital bed, stared at Zhang Mei and said, "Zhang Mei, are you recovered now?"
Zhang Mei listened to Qiao Liang's words without any reaction. She was still staring at the phone intently, laughing from time to time. When Qiao Liang asked, Zhang Mei's saliva flowed down from the corner of her mouth.
He seemed to have noticed it, so he raised his hand and wiped his saliva, then stretched out his hand to rub it on his clothes.
"Qiao Liang, are you stupid? Do you think Zhang Mei has recovered?" Lu Qian looked at Qiao Liang in confusion.
Qiao Liang said nothing, and kept his gaze on Zhang Mei, trying to catch every change in Zhang Mei's facial expression.
But the result obviously disappointed Qiao Liang. Zhang Mei was immersed in her own world, or to be precise, in the world of cartoons on her mobile phone, watching it with gusto.
"Zhang Mei, if you are afraid of something, then there are only three of us here now and Sister Li has gone out, so you don't have to worry." Qiao Liang continued without giving up.
"Qiao Liang, I think you are really stupid." Lu Qian patted Qiao Liang.
"Don't yell." Qiao Liang said helplessly.
"What the hell, I'm yelling, I think you are abnormal." Lu Qian said angrily.
Qiao Liang pouted. After seeing nothing unusual on Zhang Mei's face, he felt a little depressed. He turned to Lu Qian and said, "You stay with Zhang Mei, I'll go out and make a phone call."
Qiao Liang said and walked out. The moment he opened the door, someone outside the door almost fell in. Qiao Liang looked at it, Sister Li.
"Sister Li, didn't you say you were going to rest?" Qiao Liang looked at Sister Li with squinted eyes.
"Ah? Yes...yes." Sister Li stuttered a little, rolled her eyes, and explained, "Mr. Qiao, it's like this. I left something in the ward and wanted to go in and get it."
"That's it, then go in and get it." Qiao Liang smiled lightly.
Seeing Sister Li pretending to go in to get something, Qiao Liang didn't know that the other party was actually eavesdropping outside just now, but Qiao Liang didn't want to expose the other party.
After waiting outside the corridor for a while, Sister Li pretended to take something out, and then said to Qiao Liang, "Mr. Qiao, I will go to the pavilion in the small park downstairs to rest for a while. Call me when you have to leave."
"Okay." Qiao Liang nodded.
After staring at Sister Li's back for a while, Qiao Liang walked to the corner, took out his mobile phone and dialed Laosan's number.
When the call was connected, Qiao Liang asked directly, "Third brother, what are you doing?"
"What else can I do? I'm taking a nap. I've been keeping tabs on you lately and I've been seriously sleep deprived." The third child yawned, "What's the matter with you kid? If you have something to do, just say it and fart."
"Lao San, have you paid attention to Zhang Mei's situation recently?" Qiao Liang asked.
"Zhang Mei?" The third child was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I haven't really paid much attention to her recently, but I can access the monitoring system of the mental hospital and can access the monitoring records to check her situation at any time."
"Third Brother, please work harder these two days. Pull out all Zhang Mei's surveillance records during this period and read them carefully." Qiao Liang thought for a moment, knowing that the Third Brother had been having a hard time doing private work for him recently, so he added
, "Otherwise, you can give me a copy of the monitoring record and I can take a look at it myself."
"Okay, I'll make a copy for you later." The third child nodded and agreed, and quickly asked, "The fifth child, did something happen to Zhang Mei?"
"No." Qiao Liang frowned, "Lao San, I was wondering if Zhang Mei might have regained her consciousness."
"No way?" The third child was startled, "Qiao Liang, why do you have that kind of suspicion?"
"Lao San, when Zhang Mei went missing before, she walked back to the home she and I shared before, and she even knew how to open the combination lock to get in. Do you remember?" Qiao Liang asked.
"I know, but the doctor explained at the time that it might be a kind of memory fragment in Zhang Mei's mind, that is, she only remembers a few impressive things about herself." Lao San said.
"If you want to put it that way, Zhang Mei and I have been married for several years, and she has no memory of me at all?" Qiao Liang sighed.
"This..." Lao San smacked his mouth, "Lao Wu, it's not that I'm trying to hit you. Maybe you really don't have any sense of existence in Zhang Mei's heart."
"..." Qiao Liang almost vomited blood and cursed, "Third brother, do you know how to speak human language?"
"Look, you don't like to hear me tell the truth," said the third child.
"I think you are a dog and can't spit out ivory." Qiao Liang snorted.
"Lao Wu, I'm telling the truth. If you doubt Zhang Mei, there must be a reason." Lao San said.
"I'm in the mental hospital now. Did you know that Zhang Mei knows how to read her cell phone now?" Qiao Liang said.
"Can Zhang Mei know how to read her cell phone?" Lao San was surprised, "Did she really recover?"
"I can't say for sure." Qiao Liang said helplessly, telling Lao San what he had just seen and what he had learned about Sister Li.
After hearing this, the third child immediately said, "The fifth child, according to what you said, Zhang Mei is still crazy. Her IQ is about the same as that of a child. This means that she has not recovered."
"If what she showed is true, then she has indeed not recovered, but I'm wondering if she might be faking it," Qiao Liang said.
"I don't think so. Why would she pretend to be a fool if she is a normal person? Is she so afraid of Chu Heng?" the third child said with some disapproval.
"Who knows, maybe she knows some secrets." Qiao Liang said, "And you don't know Chu Heng well enough to know how scary this person is. Forget it, there's no point in talking about this now, just guessing.
It’s no use. Give me a copy of the surveillance video later and I’ll take a look at it in detail.”
"Okay, I'll send it to you in the evening." Lao San said.
The two chatted for a few minutes, and Qiao Liang returned to the ward after hanging up the phone. Lu Qian didn't know what she was talking to Zhang Mei at this time, and was sitting in front of the hospital bed talking to herself, while Zhang Mei was looking at herself.
Cell phone, with a silly smile on his face, completely ignoring Lu Qian.
