Although it was expected, Ameko was a little depressed when he hit a wall at Saburo Kurobe. He and Zhang Heng found a place nearby to have lunch in a hurry, and then rushed to the public hospital where Naoto Asano had been rescued before.
I inquired at the visit registration office of the ward, and sure enough, I hadn't seen Rinko earlier, but the head nurse who passed by stopped when she heard the name.
"I saw that the senior did work here, but she has retired. When I first came here, I couldn't do anything well. It is the senior who has always encouraged me to guide me. Do you have anything to do with her?"
Zhang Hengdao raised the fruit basket in his hand, "My father had a serious car accident before, and it was Aunt Linzi who took care of him and recovered. We would like to thank her again."
This kind of thing is very common in the hospital. Many patients or their family members will come back to thank the attending physician and nurses after they are discharged from the hospital. Zaijian Rinko is often thanked for her extraordinarily serious attitude, meticulous and dedicated work. For that basket of fruit, the current head nurse has never doubted the purpose of the two people in front of her.
She tore off a piece of paper, wrote a string of addresses on it, and handed it over, "Fortunately, you met me, Senior Rinko is here now."
"Wan Ying Nursing Center?" Ameko read out the name of the place on the piece of paper.
"Yes, I saw that my senior was not married and had no children. After retiring from the hospital, she went there to do volunteer work. She said that she wanted to continue to use her remaining energy and find a home for herself in the future." The current head nurse said in her tone. full of respect.
Thanks to Zhang Heng, he took the subway with Ameko to the nursing home on the outskirts of the city. This time, with the help of the staff, he met Rinko Hayami in person.
She was teaching flower arranging to an old man who had almost completely lost his hearing. Seeing Zhang Heng and Ameko, she nodded to them despite her puzzled look.
Five minutes later, seeing Rinzi put the old man in place, he walked over, "Who are you?"
Maybe it's because of her occupation. In the photos, Rinko Hayami looks very serious and meticulous. Zhang Heng was worried that she might not communicate well, but after seeing her in real life, she found that she was much more easy-going than expected.
Zhang Heng handed over the fruit basket, and the three sat down on the sofa.
"We want to ask you to understand something. I don't know if you still remember the vicious traffic accident 22 years ago. At that time, two young people were racing in the reverse direction at high speed, and finally collided with a large truck. One died on the spot, and the other Severely injured, seriously injured people are called..."
"Naoto Asano." Rinko Hayami continued, "I remember this incident, not because the news was reported at the time, but because the child was still young, he had been fighting with death, and it was obvious that he didn't want to leave this place. world, but it's a pity I couldn't help him."
Zhang Heng and Ameko looked at each other, "I heard that you were by his side all the time, I... We are his family members, I would like to know if anyone has visited him or asked to see someone when he was awake. "
"No, you are not his family members." Hayami Rinko shook her head, her eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and Ameko couldn't help her cheeks getting hot under her gaze.
Zhang Heng remained calm, and added, "It's from far away."
"..."
Seeing Rinko smiled earlier, but she didn't bother with this question anymore, "If you are asking about other people, I will not tell you without the consent of myself or my family members, but what he said... it is rare There will be people in the world other than the media who will care about him."
"What's the meaning?"
"Naoto Asano, that's a very lonely child. During the three days he was hospitalized, only his grandfather visited him. His parents heard that they had severed relations with him... Oh yes, he seems to have an uncle, But he only sent two subordinates to guard his door and never went in."
"So that means no one cares about him at all?" Both Zhang Heng and Ameko were a little surprised by the answer.
Seeing Rinko sighed, "In our line of work, we are used to life and death, but it is really rare to leave so alone at this age. He didn't regain consciousness in the end, and I don't know if he is lucky. Still unfortunate."
...
Ameko left the Wanying Nursing Center with a dazed expression, different from what he imagined. After seeing Rinko in the early days, not only did not make the things of the year clear, but it became more and more strange. Now there is a fog in front of the two of them.
Naoto Asano's uncle doesn't seem to care much about his nephew. He didn't want to take the time to come to the hospital to see him 22 years ago. It doesn't make sense that he suddenly wants to avenge him after so many years.
But if it wasn't Onitomi who set fire to the seafood shop that night, who would it be? Why did they attack Takeda Toru, who had already retired from the car industry, and why did they pretend to be Onitomi
"No, it doesn't make sense at all logically." Zhang Heng said, "Looking at it now, the other party's purpose of doing this is to force your father to go to Ghost Tong to throw himself into the trap, but since they know about it, they can directly poke at him. Go to Guitong and let Guitong's people deal with your father."
The investigation of the two came to a dead end, and there were no other clues for the time being. It was getting late, and some people didn't even have lunch on an empty stomach, so Ameko went to KFC on the roadside to pack two family buckets, and the two took a taxi back. To my cousin's small apartment.
Walking to the elevator, Ameko rummaged through the bag for the keys, but Zhang Heng's expression suddenly changed the next moment.
Because he found that the door was open. Although there was only a thin crack, Zhang Heng remembered very clearly that the two of them had locked the door when they left. Such a mistake.
The girl was also a little anxious when she saw this scene, she was worried that Takeda Toru would go to Ghost Hitomi alone and throw herself into the net. Although Asano Naoto's uncle didn't care much about the dead nephew, but the murderer came to the door, even if it was to protect It is impossible for him to let the other party go without the face of his own boss.
Ameko raised his foot and was about to rush in, but was stopped by Zhang Heng.
There was a strong warning in Zhang Heng's heart. With Takeda Tetsuya's state, it is impossible to break free from the rope on his own. There must be other people to help, and the state of this door is really weird. One point, it is half open, it is simply telling people outside to come in and take a look.
Before he knew the situation, Zhang Heng planned to take Ameko out of here first, but their footsteps had obviously been heard by the people inside. The next moment, a figure rushed out from behind the door, and he was dressed in the same way as he was in the aquatic product store before. The guy who goes up and down the dark blue voxy at the door is a passerby.
Zhang Heng has never practiced boxing, but he has been working out all the time. His current physical fitness is still better than ordinary people. When the guy on the opposite side put his hand in his pocket, he was already in front of Ameko, and he punched Ameko with all his strength. On the opponent's face, the latter was completely stunned by this blow, and fell back into the room directly.
Zhang Heng hadn't fought anyone since graduating from elementary school. He was a little surprised by the results of this punch, but he quickly adjusted his mentality. Now is not the time to feel that he is strong. The most urgent thing is to think The way to expand the results of the battle is to know that the opponent is probably still carrying a gun, and he is about to rush over to make persistent efforts, but at this time a cold gun barrel is against the back of his head.
