ECG monitors, ventilators, mobile X-ray machines...more than ten kinds of instruments are all based on ICU standards.
Zhao Tingting lay in this ward for three days before gradually regaining her own memories.
On the fourth day, the attending physician came over and said that she had met the discharge criteria and could go through the discharge procedures.
Zhao Tingting thanked her, came to the nurse's station, and asked nervously how much it would cost.
The nurse smiled slightly at her, "We are a hospital directly under the Zhenbei Army. All medical treatment is free for the families of military officers."
Zhao Tingting was stunned, "But there are no soldiers in my family."
The nurse was startled and said, "Wait a moment."
She opened the medical record and the expression on her face changed, "Your admission procedures were handled by someone from the Xuanwu Army Commander's Office. Look, this is the seal of the Commander's Office."
Zhao Tingting looked confused.
The nurse reminded with a smile: "Perhaps you have a friend who serves in the Xuanwu Army, and his position is not low."
Zhao Tingting could feel the respect from the other party, but the more this happened, the more panicked she felt.
She is just an ordinary high school student. Her father is paralyzed in bed all year round, and her mother is a small vendor. There is no way she can be related to the generals of the Zhenbei Army.
If she really had friends who were serving in the Xuanwu Army, she wouldn't have been tricked into going to Qingxu Palace by a rogue intermediary in order to get a hospital bed for her father.
When she thought of Qingxu Palace, Zhao Tingting's mind flashed to the terrifying scene of black dragon's breath falling from the sky and destroying the entire palace.
Her last memory was of a wall falling down, and then nothing happened again.
She thought she would die, but she didn't expect...
At this time, the head nurse next to me came over and looked at the medical records, "They are the patients from Qingxu Mountain. I remember those soldiers mentioned a name, which seemed to be Li."
"Li Xiang, I remembered that the leader of the team was a military officer. He mentioned this name several times and called him captain." said the nurse who was flipping through the medical records.
"Li Xiang..."
Zhao Tingting left the hospital in confusion.
There is not a single cloud in the sky of Kyoto City, just like a blue mirror.
The streets are also very clean, people wear bright and beautiful clothes, and everyone has a carefree smile on their face.
But Zhao Tingting knew that she did not belong here.
She took the bus to the passenger terminal, then changed to an intercity bus, and spent a day returning to Akagi.
Tianheyuan Community.
In an old residential building.
Zhao Tingting reached into her trouser pocket for her keys, but found that the pocket was empty.
It should have fallen off when I was in Qingxu Palace.
She hesitated at the door for a long time before knocking on the door.
"coming."
Zhao's mother wore an apron and opened the door. When she saw her daughter, she was stunned, "Didn't you say that I would give Zhang Lili extra lessons and stay at their house for a week?"
Zhao Tingting threw herself into her mother's arms and cried bitterly.
Zhao's mother said in a panic, "What's wrong? Who bullied our girl?"
Zhao Tingting's voice trembled, "No, I just miss my dad."
Mother Zhao's eyes darkened, "Your dad also misses you very much. When he is awake these days, he has been chanting your name. Wipe your tears and go see him."
Zhao Tingting sniffed and nodded.
She went to the kitchen to wash her face and calm down her mood, and then walked through the small living room with only one table and four benches to the bedroom.
Inside the germ-proof cover, his father, Zhao Kang, was still sleeping.
Zhao Tingting walked over and looked at the pressure of the oxygen bottle next to the bed.
Then he sat by the bed, put on disposable rubber gloves, scalded the towel with boiling water, wrung it out, stuffed it through the gap in the anti-bacterial mask, let it dry for about ten seconds, and then applied it to his father's forehead.
Due to long-term bed rest and malnutrition, Zhao Kang's body suffered from muscle atrophy, skinny bones, and was covered with bedsores.
The pain tortured this middle-aged man like a mummy.
The bedside table was filled with medicine bottles. Zhao Tingting skillfully classified the various medicines, opened the drawer, and was about to put the uncommon medicines in, when she found a piece of paper inside.
It is a copy of the body donation application form.
Snap.
Hot tears fell on the application form.
"Tingting, it's time to eat."
Mother's voice sounded outside.
Zhao Tingting quickly put the copy back in the drawer, wiped away her tears, walked out of the bedroom gently, and closed the door.
On the bed, Zhao Kang opened his eyes, looked out the window through the transparent anti-bacterial cover.
How many years have you gone out? Four years? Maybe five years?
He ate, drank, and defecated in this small anti-bacterial shield, and his concept of time had become blurred.
He had long been numb to the physical pain.
Only the pain in his heart made him feel more and more uncomfortable.
As the husband of his wife and the father of his daughter, he failed to fulfill his responsibilities and obligations. Instead, his family was harmed and suffered all the time.
Oxygen expenses, medical expenses, and various sterile consumables made this already poor family even worse.
And all this falls on my wife and daughter.
The family has long run out of savings.
And my body is still deteriorating day by day.
If the consumption continues, the family's only asset, which is a house of less than 100 square meters, will be sold.
By then, my wife and daughter will be homeless.
I am such a burden.
At this moment, Zhao Kang heard someone knocking on the door, followed by his daughter's footsteps.
Lying in this small anti-bacterial shield, Zhao Kang's various functions are deteriorating, except for his hearing, which is getting better and better.
The door opened.
A man's voice said, "Hello, we are from Kyoto University School of Medicine."
Then, someone came in. From the sound of footsteps, it should be three people or more.
"We saw your husband's body donation application through the Medical Association."
"Through reviewing the medical records, we found that he was a good candidate to join our research project."
"We will give Mr. Zhao a chance for a new life. At the same time, we will also provide his family with a huge compensation fee and a special admission quota at Kyoto University."
…
Outside Kyoto City, the Ninth Division from Tongzhou Prefecture was stationed, waiting for the next order from the military headquarters.
A car left the temporary military camp and drove into Kyoto City.
Su Jinnian sat in the car, not looking at the dramatically changed city of Kyoto, but immersed in reading through thick notes.
Along the way, the Ninth Division used strong firepower to clear the way and killed many ferocious beasts along the way.
Su Jinnian did not waste the opportunity and studied those ferocious beasts.
"Miss Su, your specimens will not be sent to Kyoto University until tomorrow."
The officer driving the car said with some embarrassment, "You also know that Kyoto is no different from other places. There are thresholds everywhere, and it takes a long time to go through the formalities."
Su Jinnian hummed, without even moving his eyes away from the information.
I don't know if she heard what she said clearly.
The officer smiled helplessly. He had no temper at all towards this woman.
In order to obtain first-hand information, a woman who did not even wear protective clothing and got into the belly of a vicious beast was more ruthless than most veterans in the army who had been on the battlefield.
An hour and a half later, the officer reminded, "Miss Su, we're here."
Su Jinnian didn't even raise his head, "Just drive in."
The officer glanced at the security guard blocking him in front, feeling mixed.
"As expected of Kyoto University, even the gate guards are third-level ones, and there's more than one."
Su Jinnian realized something, finally raised his head, looked at the security guard with evil eyes, and said only two words softly: "Get out of the way."
When the security guard saw Su Jinnian's face, he was so frightened that he sweated all over his forehead and hurriedly got out of the way.
After waiting for the car to leave, his colleague saw that he looked frightened and asked: "Old Zhang, who is it that scared you to such a coward?"
Security guard Lao Zhang poured saliva into his mouth and said, "Su Shisan is back."
