Liu Zhiyue seemed to hear someone calling his name in a daze.
He slowly raised his eyelids, and his nose smelled a very strong smell of disinfectant.
The light is a bit dazzling.
He felt his left hand being held tightly by someone, his head twisted slightly, and Liu Zhiyue looked aside.
Liu Changqing lowered his head and held his hand tightly.
"dad……"
Liu Zhiyue's voice suddenly woke up Liu Changqing, who was almost too sleepy to open his eyes. He opened his eyes and looked at Liu Zhiyue who had already woken up.
"Son...how do you feel?"
"I'm fine..."
"That's good, that's good..."
Liu Changqing breathed a long sigh of relief. He was afraid that he would hear something uncomfortable from his son's mouth.
Liu Zhiyue was lying on the hospital bed. The pain in his back had been relieved a lot, but the injury to the sole of his foot was more serious. The entire right foot was wrapped in gauze.
Liu Zhiyue suddenly fell unconscious at the door of his home, which frightened Liu Changqing half to death. He was afraid that something might happen to his son. Liu Changqing quickly took Liu Zhiyue to the hospital. Fortunately, after an examination, his body was not fatally injured.
There were marks on his back that he had been hit by a heavy object, and the main source of injury came from the soles of his feet.
Because he was running on the ground with one bare foot, the pebbles on the road dug into his flesh, contaminating the wound with all kinds of dust.
There was nothing serious about his body. The reason why he fainted was explained by the doctor as coma caused by "sudden relaxation of tight nerves", which made Liu Changqing, who was extremely anxious at the time, relieved.
He was afraid that something would happen to his child.
"Where's Xia Zhi..."
Liu Zhiyue asked softly.
When Liu Changqing heard his son's question, he gently patted the back of his hand.
"Don't worry, Xia Zhi, I have already sent her to school. You brat actually slept all night..."
"I slept all night?"
Turning to look out the window, it was already daytime.
Feeling a little sad in his heart, Liu Zhiyue turned his head back and looked at Liu Changqing.
"Dad...I'm about to take the exam. I can't stay in the hospital forever..."
"Now that things are like this, why should I take the exam? It's not the high school entrance exam, so it's fine."
"No, I promise you to do well in the exam this time..."
"You should take good care of your health. Your feet won't be healed in ten and a half months."
He comforted Liu Zhiyue, who was a little agitated.
Then Liu Changqing's face became serious and he asked.
"What happened last night...why did you come home like this?"
"..."
After pondering for a moment, Liu Zhiyue stared at the ceiling of the hospital.
He seemed to be thinking about what happened last night.
Liu Zhiyue only had a rough outline of that person in his memory.
He opened his mouth and said.
"I didn't quite see what he looked like, but he shouldn't be very tall...and he was covering his face at the time, so only his eyes could be seen..."
"What kind of eyes?"
"It's just... some slender eyes, like those of foxes in the animal world that I saw before, but not as exaggerated as those of foxes, and there is a peculiar smell on the other person's body, as if he hasn't taken a bath in many days..."
In Liu Zhiyue's memory, when the man was swinging at him with an iron rod, he could clearly smell the smell coming from him in the air.
It was a very unpleasant odor.
Liu Changqing frowned when he heard this.
He has never offended anyone in his memory, let alone someone with slender eyes like a fox...
Then...who is it, Liu Zhiyue who attacked?
"Do you... still remember where they attacked you?"
Regarding Liu Changqing's words, Liu Zhiyue pondered for a moment.
"On the road from Zhou Shiyan's house back to our house, I walked fine at first, but after a while I felt something was wrong... I always felt like someone was following me. Fortunately, my shoelaces were loose at that time.
I squatted down to tie my shoes and found someone behind me, otherwise he would have attacked me from behind..."
"Zhou Shiyan..."
"That's weird."
Liu Zhiyue's expression became serious.
"Dad, didn't you ask her to help me with my homework? She tutored me for a while during self-study that night, and then when school was over... When I arrived at our intersection and was about to go home, I found that she was quite scared, so I started
send her home……"
After Liu Changqing listened to his son's words, he suddenly remembered Zhou Shiyan's panicked look when he saw her for the first time.
But... the first time he went to see it, what he saw was a local dog. At that time, Liu Changqing thought it was a girl who was afraid of seeing something wrong.
Now, looking at what happened to my son, it seems... there is something hidden.
Take a breath.
"Don't worry, leave these matters to me. Someone will ask you some questions later. Just tell them what happened to you. Don't be afraid."
"Um."
Liu Zhiyue responded, guessing that his father had called the police.
After settling Liu Zhiyue, Liu Changqing walked out of the ward.
His eyes became gloomy.
Dare you touch my son?
You are dead.
Saturday.
Zhou Shiyan stayed at home alone to make the final effort for the upcoming final exam.
At this moment, she was the only one at home, and Lan Yixian had already gone to work in the supermarket.
On the shabby desktop, Zhou Shiyan's left hand gently pressed the corner of the textbook, and then her eyes scanned the book. She held a pen in her right hand and wrote something on the draft paper beside her.
Although she is a math class representative, Zhou Shiyan does not have a high talent for math. She is a typical serious study type. In all subjects, she will carefully record the key points taught by the teacher in class, and then
Take it out for review in your free time.
Compared with those geniuses who are naturally better at mathematics than ordinary people, Zhou Shiyan is a representative of ordinary people.
The words "struggle" and "hard work" are perfectly reflected in her body.
During these short few days, she tutored Liu Zhiyue in his studies.
I don't know if it was her own misunderstanding, but she always felt that when explaining to others, Liu Zhiyue would quickly draw inferences, and sometimes, she had not even thought of the solutions to the problems herself.
In my memory, Liu Zhiyue has always been hovering in the middle or lower level of the class, and he looks listless every day in class.
Could it be that the other party is that rare mathematical genius?
With such doubts in her heart, Zhou Shiyan obviously lost concentration when she started to answer the questions today.
Her pen, which had been sliding on the draft pad, stopped.
Looking at the book blankly.
Last night, when he watched Liu Zhiyue go downstairs, he always had a bad premonition...
It seemed that the pen in his hand could no longer be held, and it slowly slipped from his hand and fell on the table.
Scroll a few times...
"Bang bang bang!"
There was a knock on the door, which startled Zhou Shiyan who was thinking.
She looked towards the door.
Before she could ask, a familiar voice came.
"Zhou Shiyan, are you at home? I am Liu Zhiyue's father."
