The motorcycle was parked on the side of the road and he just took off his helmet, "Brother, here~!" Tang Chao turned his head when he heard the sound. Across the road, at the entrance of the city's No. 1 Hospital, a cute boy with a cartoon schoolbag stood cutely, raising his hand and waving to this side.
Indicate.
Next to him was an old man carrying a fruit basket, with frosty white hair on his temples but a strong spirit. He was none other than Uncle Fu who used to take the little girl to and from school.
The hospital and the fruit basket, once these two factors are combined, the purpose of coming is obvious, and it can only be to visit patients.
In fact, this matter had nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty. It was rare that I was not lazy and wanted to work overtime on the weekend, and people also came to the store. As a result, Xie Wei, who had originally made an appointment to go to the hospital with the little girl, had something to do and could not make the trip, so she just hung up the phone.
He called over...well, there's nothing to say. He's just being teased, and he's already used to it.
They met across the street, took the fruit basket, and exchanged greetings for a while before Uncle Fu turned around and left. When closing time in the evening, the latter would go to the piano store to pick up the little girl and take her back to the Xie family's old home.
It seems a bit out of character to have an old man running back and forth on a big weekend.
Moreover, this Uncle Fu is nominally a housekeeper, but in fact he has a detached status in the Xie family. He is the same generation as the still-living old Xie family members, such as Xie Zhenghua, Xie Zhengying, who jumped from a building before and is now squatting in the house, and other younger and middle-aged people directly related to the Xie family.
Looking at the younger generation who has grown up, Xie Wei is also the same, and everyone is very respectful when they see her.
Logically speaking, at such an old age, he should have enjoyed his old age in peace. Even if fate did not allow him to have a son or a half, the Xie family's great achievements would not have treated him badly. However, Uncle Fu has a temper that cannot be spared. On the contrary, Xie is
Huixie became ill, and the Xie family had no choice but to let him go after repeated attempts to persuade him were in vain.
It wasn't until Tangdou recognized his relatives and returned two years ago that Uncle Fu became very attached to the little girl and took the initiative to invite her. The Xie family took advantage of the situation and arranged this relatively easy pick-up and drop-off.
All in all, he is an elder worthy of respect and trust.
Without further ado, the brother and sister carried fruit baskets into the inpatient department of the hospital. After making inquiries at the information desk on the first floor, they took the elevator to their respective floors.
Ding, the elevator door has just opened and has not yet been fully opened. Tang Chao raised his eyelids and stopped half a step in front of the little girl. The next moment, a figure suddenly burst in through the gap in the door like a loach,
"Xiaobao, don't run around - ah! I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
Looking at the tiger-headed little boy in front of him and the young mother who couldn't help but apologize, Tang Chao looked down at the ice cream stuck to his pants on the inner thigh. It was okay, it didn't hurt his vitals.
"It's a small matter, it doesn't matter... Uh, don't bother, I'll do it myself."
He waved his hand to ward off the subconsciously extended arm of the young mother and took away the ice cream. The latter immediately realized that the action was inappropriate and her cheeks turned red. She turned her head and grabbed the little boy's ears, lecturing and apologizing.
A little incident, nothing serious. But the pants still need to be cleaned, otherwise the white and sticky marks are cream ice cream. I don’t know what you will think. It’s hard to say... Let Jelly Bean carry the fruit basket to the ward first.
, Tang Chao himself walked to the bathroom on the other side.
There was no need to elaborate on the cleaning process, and it was impossible to take off his pants. It was just a matter of dipping his fingers in some water and trying his best to wipe off the ice cream to neutralize it. Then, looking at the large area of wet marks spread between his crotch, Tang Chao twitched the corners of his mouth.
.
Damn, why do I feel more embarrassed...
Fortunately, I put on my coat before going out. I took off my shirt and tied it around my waist. I fiddled with it a little and adjusted it. I took a few steps back and looked at the stylish look in the bathroom mirror. I nodded with satisfaction. You are as smart as me.
After leaving the bathroom, I was about to go find the little girl. After walking a few steps, I couldn't help but feel my feet. I turned my head and looked at the iron door of the fire stairway. Did I hear that wrong? However, this voice... why does it sound familiar?
…
The fire corridor is located on the middle platform between the fourth and fifth floors.
"...Keep your voice down!"
"Oh, I'm sorry... No, Brother Guangmin, this is no joke! You..." lowered his voice, "Did you really lose your gun? A real gun?!"
"Nonsense! Why else would I have called you as soon as I got off the operating table at one o'clock in the morning last night? I was so busy?! Also, my gun was not lost, but stolen! I parked my car under the hospital.
Field, in my car, in a silver combination suitcase!"
"But... what, brother Guangmin, it's not my big bastard's back-and-forth. We can just play with this kind of thing behind closed doors. Why do we need to bring it out?"
"Don't ask, I can't explain the reason, but I have a reason that must be brought out... Don't think too much about Dahai. They are all brothers. I can't write two words of thanks in one sentence. I ask you for help. There is no way you can harm Dahai.
You. In fact, if it weren’t for that damn thief, this gun would have completely disappeared from the world! In short, can you help me find the person? "
"I started searching last night and got the surveillance video of the hospital parking lot. Unfortunately, I didn't catch the thief's face. But it doesn't matter. As long as he is hanging around nearby, I will definitely dig him out. I'm afraid.
I'm afraid it's just a passing thieves, and it will be difficult to deal with it if they suddenly think of it..."
“It has to be done even if it’s difficult, and the sooner the better!”
"I understand. It's a pity... It's a pity that after Brother Zhenghua and Brother Zhengying happened one after another last year, the family was cut too completely in some aspects, and the previous Sanjiang Gang was basically disbanded. Otherwise, this kind of thing can be solved with just one phone call.
It’s so troublesome…”
"What's the use of talking about this now? Take the time to do things! By the way, Dahai, are the people you're looking for reliable? Don't make any more trouble... No, I have to see it with my own eyes, let's leave now!
"
"Ah? Didn't the doctor just say that it would be better to stay in the hospital for observation for a few more days..."
"Observation is nothing! If I can't pass this level, I will be hospitalized for a long time!"
"Okay...who!"
There was a low shout, but the iron door of the fire stairway on the fifth floor above was pushed open, making a lot of noise. Then,
"Xie Guangmin? Is Xie Guangmin here?" It was a young female nurse who came in and looked at the two people coming up the stairs. The first one was Xie Guangmin, who was wearing a hospital gown. She suddenly said angrily, "Why are you running around just after the operation?"
, hurry back to the ward. The little girl is so kind and comes to visit, how about you hide here and smoke?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Oh no, what's your attitude..."
"The sea!" Xie Guangmin interrupted, "I'm sorry, my friend didn't mean it. Could you please give Dr. Zhang a message, just say that I am now... wait, you just said that a little girl came to visit me?"
"Otherwise, I'll have to wait for you for a long time!"
"Oh... Dahai, you go down and drive the car over first, I will be there soon..."
While talking, the three of them left the fire corridor. As soon as the iron door closed, a figure turned out from the corner of the stairs above. He raised his hand and clasped his chin with a thoughtful look on his face. He was naturally the Tang Dynasty.
Well, out of curiosity, I never thought I would actually hear the news. I really... shook his head. Although he didn't hear the whole story, Tang Chao now roughly guessed what happened.
To put it simply, his behavior of "borrowing a gun" in the club yesterday should have been noticed by the victim, that is, the cheap second uncle Xie Guangmin. The latter's reaction and psychological activities at the time are not yet known, but the other party's subsequent actions
The response was quite decisive - he ran away with a gun overnight, probably hoping to find a secret place to deal with it.
To be on the safe side and avoid getting involved, there is nothing wrong with doing this. What is problematic is that I didn’t know what to think in the middle and actually came to the hospital again. Well, I guess it was to visit my son who had regained consciousness, but even so, it was obvious
He was so stupid that he lost the gun in the end... Huh?
Thinking of this, Tang Chao's expression couldn't help but analyze it this way, then the reason why the man who had a sudden mental disorder and fainted last night was because he lost his gun... Let's just say, it really has nothing to do with him!
When the lingering apologies in the heart are gone, someone will feel more calm and return to the ward with peace of mind.
Then, in less than an hour, the visit was over and he left the hospital.
This hour was delayed for so long because he accompanied two brothers, Xie Bin and Xie Zhe, to go through discharge procedures. As for Xie Guangmin, it could be seen that he wanted to communicate more with the little girl, but the actual situation did not allow it, so in the end he just walked away
As a formality, I made an appointment with a private doctor in advance and hurriedly came and left.
Such behavior made Tangdou Tongshou feel a little unsure of herself. On the way back to the piano store after leaving the hospital, she sat in the back seat of the motorcycle and was still mumbling whether her second uncle didn't like her.
I believe that if Xie Guangmin had known that the meeting would lead to this outcome, he would not have gone back to the ward at all, and would have just walked down the fire stairs to escape. Fortunately, someone was kind enough, and it was because of the drinks and snacks he received yesterday, it was helpful.
Just explain a few words and deal with it.
It was almost lunch time when we returned to the piano store. It was not easy to open a fire in the piano store, and there were no cooks. The brother and sister had lunch at a soup noodle restaurant in the next block. It is said to be a local time-honored restaurant with a long history.
There are chain stores and they are very popular, but the little girl’s evaluation after eating was average. Anyway, it was not as delicious as her brother’s.
Needless to say, there must be elements of fan filter and personality worship in this. Probably in the little girl's mind, as long as it is made by her brother, even if it is boiled water instant noodles, it must have a unique flavor.
Of course Tang Chao understood this truth, but he couldn't help but feel very happy after hearing it. He repeatedly praised the little girl for her taste and she knew she knew how to eat it!
In the afternoon, Tang Chao sat behind the cashier to look at the store, while paddling and playing computer games. The little girl lay on the piano cover and took a nap for half an hour before getting up to do her homework.
During this period, Pork Belly ran back after having enough time outside, pushed open the glass door with his head in a familiar manner, and swaggered in, turning a blind eye to the person next to the door - of course, that person also seemed to have not seen him - and went straight to the inside.
He jumped onto the piano with ease, walked closer on cat steps, raised his paw to fiddle with the pen in the little girl's hand, pushed it away a few times, and then kept doing it again.
The little girl had no choice but to raise her hand and put it down, scratched her chin a few times, and the cat's eyes immediately narrowed into a comfortable slit. She opened her mouth and let out a big yawn, then lay down to take a nap. After a while, she made a slight snoring sound.
It was at the turn of spring and summer, and the streets outside were filled with people and cars, and the weather was a bit sultry. However, through a transparent glass door, the inside of the piano store was quiet and quiet. Occasionally, a few inquiries or customers who walked into the wrong store came in.
, and it did not affect the peaceful life of the two people and the cat at all, as if they could live forever like this.
Until about 3:30 in the afternoon, when the little girl finished her homework, the piano store gradually became lively. The main sound was the sound of the piano, not only the little girl practicing the piano, but also someone sometimes playing a few songs.
What, as I said before, playing the piano will affect your mood, arouse muscle memory, and make you want to kill someone?
Indeed, these problems have always existed, and they will be solved for a long time in the future. So if someone else asks for it, then that person's caliber has always been incompetent, does not understand, and is not interested. But if it is a little girl asking for it, there is no telling, just pick an instrument.
Come on! Even if you encounter someone who really doesn’t know how to do it...don’t you still know how to learn?
After the song was played, I had a long aftertaste. Even though I had heard it several times, the little girl still applauded gently and couldn't help but sigh in frustration.
"Brother, it's obviously the same piece of music. It's not complicated and doesn't require any skills. But why is it that my playing is so monotonous, like a pool of stagnant water, and you can't see the bottom of it at a glance. But brother, you play it so beautifully, so... uniquely?"
In fact, the little girl has asked this question many times, and so has a certain star. For the latter, of course, it is 'you are too bad, you can't understand even if I say it.' But for the little girl, it is naturally impossible to answer like this
.However, I really can’t explain the real reason. I can only comfort him by saying: “Don’t be anxious, take your time, I believe you can do it one day.”
"You said it so easily, brother, you didn't teach me..." the little girl pursed her lips and muttered, and then asked herself, "Okay, I know. This kind of thing can only be understood, not expressed.
It can’t be taught.”
Tang Chao smiled helplessly after hearing this and spread his hands.
This is not perfunctory, nor is it prevarication, but it is truly impossible to teach. His way is too wild, and there is no possibility of copying it.
Because of his ability to perceive, he is born to be extremely sensitive to various tangible and intangible things in the outside world. This ability falls into music, which means he can easily touch the emotions, soul and other inner elements behind the melody that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve.
To give an example that may not be so appropriate, it is like solving a difficult problem in physics and mathematics. Tang Chao may not know the solution or the formula, but he can see the answer at a glance... He can do it himself, and he can get it right.
But how to teach others?
I taught Chu Fengya because the latter’s music style had already taken shape and matured. The exchange between them was more about ideas and intentions. Even if the teaching was wrong, the other party would not be greatly affected. But Tangdou
No, the little girl is laying the foundation. If you teach illusory things like controlling emotions, touching the soul, etc. at this time, you will definitely go down the wrong path.
That’s too far off topic, well, let’s just say one more thing. In his previous life, after Tang Chao realized that he had a talent for music, he sometimes couldn’t help but jokingly think about it, had he entered the wrong profession from the beginning? What if he had entered the wrong profession from the beginning?
I followed the path of music, and then... well, there is a high probability that there will be nothing later, and I should be dead long ago...
Okay, that's it, let's go back to the present. The little girl's temper comes and goes quickly, or it's not a temper at all, but more like a strategy. No, now I'm taking the opportunity to ask for another song.
Tang Chao naturally agreed: "What do you want to listen to, or the piano?"
"Hmm, it's just the piano. I want to listen to... listen to the improvisation!" The little girl still showed her fox tail. She knew a little secret. Although her brother could play a lot of repertoire, or there was nothing he couldn't play, he still couldn't play it.
The most novel and ear-catching thing is the improvisation.
"Impromptu..." Tang Chao raised his chin and muttered for a while. He really couldn't find any inspiration until he looked up and saw the ugly cat sleeping soundly on the piano cover. The corner of his mouth suddenly raised and he slammed it down like a prank.
Phew, "Meow--" The hair exploded, and I didn't even see it clearly. I turned over and fell to the ground!
"Brother~~~"
"Haha... Okay, okay, let's officially begin..." With his thoughts clear and his thoughts welling up, he hit the keys with his hands and let out a flurry of flying notes.
Music is a very personal thing, and preferences always vary from person to person. For example, at this moment in the piano store, the intoxicated little girl dared to raise her hands in the air and declare unilaterally that her brother's piano playing is the best and most beautiful in the world.
The melody does not accept refutation!
Even if it’s only a few bars...it’s not that someone lost his inspiration, but it was caused by external factors. A shocking thunder resounded throughout the world!
"Boom——"
They released the keys and turned their heads in surprise. Only then did the brother and sister realize that the sky outside had dimmed at some point, and it was clearly not five o'clock at this time. Then there were big raindrops hitting the glass door, like a sudden thunderstorm.
!
Thinking of something, Tang Chao quickly stood up and walked out: "You practice first, I will move the car."
"I'll hold an umbrella for you."
"No, I'll be back soon."
Of course, it was the Harley motorcycle that had to be moved. Tang Dynasty usually parked it on the roadside at the door, and today was no exception. The little girl warned that it would rain before going out in the morning, but who could have imagined that it would be so heavy and come so quickly.
I hurriedly went out and pushed my Harley motorcycle. Instead of going back to the store, I went to the awning in the community more than a hundred meters away.
It was not easy to park inside the piano store, and there were several steps in front of the door. Tang Chao could forcefully push it in, or even carry it in, but it would be a bit shocking. Considering the heart endurance of the neighbors, it was still not possible.
It's wonderful to do.
A few minutes later, when Tang Chao returned to the music shop, he had become a veritable drowned rat, unable to find a dry place on his body.
Seeing this, the little girl kept urging: "Brother, hurry up and change clothes in the back, be careful of catching a cold."
Tang Chao nodded in response, but looked to the right side of the door, where there was also a drowned rat standing there.
Okay, this is a bit rude to describe. In fact, she is a very beautiful young woman. Especially her eyebrows and eyes, which are hidden in the green mountains, giving a cold and distant look. When she looked at her, her black hair was spread out like a waterfall, and she was wiping it silently.
The towel in his hand looked familiar. As expected, the little girl had prepared it for him, and he kindly lent it to him temporarily.
In addition, there is a special square black bag next to the young woman's feet. Judging from the pattern and text on the outside, it should contain a drawing board for an artist to sketch from life?
"This sister is here to take shelter from the rain."
In fact, Tang Chao could guess it without the little girl explaining it. He nodded politely and the young woman nodded slightly to indicate the interruption. After changing clothes and coming out, the latter had already wiped her hair, simply put it up, and put a hairpin... it was a sketch
pencil?
Tang Chao raised his eyebrows and handed over a black sports coat. The other party didn't take it, so he said: "It's clean, put it on first."
The young woman hesitated and looked down at her unsightly thin and soaked coat. In some places, traces of underwear could even be clearly seen inside. Finally, she reached out and took it; "Thank you."
"You're welcome, please help yourself."
With outsiders present, Tang Chao could no longer play the piano, so he resumed his duties at the cashier.
After looking at the young woman curiously, the little girl turned around and picked up Pork Belly and sat in front of the piano. Probably inspired by someone's bad taste just now, she rolled her eyes quickly, picked up the cat's paw, and pressed the keys. Although she listened
It's not very coherent, but the melody still comes out... Tsk, it's two tigers.
Maybe even God couldn't bear to listen to this weird tune. Before the song was finished, the heavy rain that was pouring down outside miraculously stopped... Well, this is just the spring and summer weather. It's more annoying than turning the page in a book.
Fast. However, even though the rain stopped, the heavy dark clouds overhead showed no signs of dissipating, and the sky was still gloomy and dim. No matter how you looked at it, it looked like a mouse pulling a wooden stick with its big head behind.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But no matter what, I can go out now. Seeing this, the young woman was about to take off her sports coat, but she heard, "Wear it, and come back when you are free."
That's fine." Behind the cashier, Tang Chao said casually without raising his head.
The young woman did not hesitate this time. She really needed a covering now, otherwise it would be difficult to get out of the door. She pursed her lips and said gratefully: "Thank you, I will return it tomorrow."
"Forget it then." Tang Chao picked up his phone and raised it, "I just checked the weather forecast. It will still rain tomorrow. I'll put another one up then... Just take a look, there's no rush."
The young woman was slightly startled when she heard this. After she came to her senses, she said hello, expressed her gratitude again, picked up the drawing board and pushed the door open to leave.
He looked away, turned his head, and saw Tangdou sneaking closer with small steps. The latter's face was full of envy, and he said sincerely: "This sister is so elegant!"
Tang Chao also nodded in agreement when he heard this. Under normal circumstances, if a man praises a woman for her temperament, the subtext is probably that her appearance is a pity. But if the compliment also comes from a woman, even if it's just a girl, then it's mostly true.
"It's really good-looking... hmm? What are you doing?" Tang Chao looked confused, but he walked up to Tangdou Boy Shoes beside him, raised his hand and patted his shoulder like a little adult, then cleared his throat with a pleased tone.
, "Brother, you have made progress!"
"ha?"
He was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing. Tang Chao couldn't help but see a black line on his forehead. He raised his hand and rubbed the little girl's hair vigorously, and said angrily: "What have you been thinking about all day long? Who did you learn this from?"
.Brother, this is just to help others, do you understand? You are not playing tricks!"
"But you clearly made an appointment to meet me next time, and I heard about it."
"I...go away!"
Just as Tang Chao finished his words, the wind chimes beside him sounded, and the glass door was pushed open again. However, the person who came in was not the young woman just now, but Uncle Fu. Naturally, he came to pick up the little girl and thank him.
Old house.
Originally there was no need to rush so quickly, but the weather was not right now. He was worried that it would rain heavily and it would be unsafe to drive up the mountain, so Fu Bo rushed over early.
Before going out, the little girl suddenly turned around, waved her fists, and winked in a funny way: "Brother, come on, I'm optimistic about you, ah-haha!"
The laughter of the silver bell faded away, and Tang Chao silently dropped the mouse he was throwing in his hand and sighed. Has the little guy entered the rebellious stage? Really, it is getting harder and harder to control... He shook his head and looked at the wall.
wall clock.
We still have plenty of time, so, go home? Continue to visit the store? Or... go out and have some fun?
After thinking for three seconds, Tang Chao decisively decided to go out and have some fun.
As for where the fun comes from, haha, do you really think that he was sitting in front of the computer all afternoon, playing games... Ahem, okay, he was indeed playing games. But besides that, he also did something else
, such as finding the whereabouts of the gun thief last night.
This is not difficult. As long as you determine the time of the theft, and then call up the traffic monitoring of the nearby exits of the hospital, and do a little identification and elimination, you can basically lock it in... In fact, the cheap second uncle can also do this kind of thing in normal times.
If you arrive, just contact the Traffic Control Center.
But it obviously won't work this time, because it involves the loss of firearms. Unless the situation is desperate and the situation gets out of control, the second uncle probably doesn't want or dare to let the matter have anything to do with the police before it is resolved.
But precisely because of this, the half-day efforts over there were probably in vain. Because the direction was wrong, the car thief's destination was not near the hospital, but far west of the city.
In other words, this is really a passing thief who came up on the spur of the moment.
After sending the address to his mobile phone, Tang Chao simply put on his helmet and stood up. Hum, little guy, I'll let you see if my brother is actually helping others!
What? The throwing of the gun was originally all about him?
Nonsense! How can you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air without any evidence?!
