"We really tried our best." Several doctors bent down towards Shi Xiaonian, expressed their apologies, and then left her.
Shi Xiaonian stood there alone. The corridor was very long, as if it had no end.
The longer she stayed there, the colder she became, to the point of despair.
…
Mu Qianchu was placed in a special isolation ward and was cared for by doctors and nurses every day. Shi Xiaonian could only stand outside the glass and watch and could not go in.
Mu Qianchu was lying there with his head bandaged and an oxygen tube inserted into his nose. There were various infusion bags surrounding the hospital bed. Doctors came in every once in a while to check on his condition.
Without those instruments, without those tubes, he looked like he was asleep.
Shi Xiaonian suddenly remembered that she was with Mu Qianchu when he had his first craniotomy, but she couldn't see him anymore. When she saw him again, he had lost his memory.
This was the second time she accompanied Mu Qianchu for a craniotomy. This time he did not lose his memory, but became a vegetative state.
If she hadn't insisted on her own way, he wouldn't be like this. It's all because of her...
No, she couldn't think like that.
The doctor said that Mu Qianchu showed a strong will to survive during the entire operation, and she knew why.
Qianchu said that he should cheer up instead of just increasing negative emotions. He was afraid that she would be like this, which was why he held on for so long after being shot. That was why his will to survive was so strong and he didn't want to break his promise to her.
She couldn't break her trust with him either.
Shi Xiaonian looked at the people inside through the glass and silently vowed, I will cheer up, and I also ask you to wake up.
None of them want to break their trust.
Three days later, Mu Qianchu's condition gradually stabilized and he was transferred from the special ward to the key intensive care unit. Before Shi Xiaonian could enter, he was stopped by several bodyguards.
She knew that Gong Ou's tolerance had reached its limit.
She was taken away from the ward and returned to the Imperial Castle. Along the way, she saw many places where the mess was being cleaned up. Those were the places that had been bombed. The radio in the car reported the incident back and forth.
The panic caused by this incident has never been seen before, but the security protection in S City has also been improved like never before.
As the car slowly entered the Imperial Castle, Shi Xiaonian turned her head and looked at the dense forest. She felt a sense of sadness when she thought that she had stayed in it for so long.
The car stopped. In front of her, Feng De, who was well-dressed, stood there with a group of servants. Feng De had snow-white hair and a wrinkled face that was very kind. He walked up and opened the car door for her.
Shi Xiaonian got out of the car and looked at the old man in front of her quietly. Her nose was sore. She threw herself into his arms and said, "Father."
long time no see.
The days spent in the forest were so closed that she forgot how she lived before.
"I've suffered." Feng De hugged her and patted her gently on the back, his voice filled with deep feelings.
The two of them separated, Feng De looked down at her belly and said with a smile, "The belly is much bigger."
"Yeah." Shi Xiaonian nodded and subconsciously touched his belly with his hand.
"Let's go in and rest for a while." Feng De took her towards the castle. "I have arranged for you to go to the police station in the afternoon and take a confession as usual. You know this matter is very big."
"Um."
Shi Xiaonian understood. She raised her eyes and looked forward, only to see that the front of the castle had been completely cleaned up. There was no trace of the gun battle from the previous few days. Everything looked so calm and grand.
There is no trace of blood next to the fountain, and the water splashes are still jumping in the sound of music, so romantic.
Feng De led Shi Xiaonian in, walked upstairs, and walked to the bedroom. Shi Xiaonian said, "Father, I want to take a look at the information this time."
Feng De was stunned for a moment and said, "It's better to rest. You've spent enough time in the hospital these two days."
"The people who have been with me the most during this period are those who have been watching over me. Now that I am asked to rest, I feel uneasy." Shi Xiaonian looked at Feng De, his eyes black and white.
Gong Ou doesn't understand her useless thoughts, will Feng De understand
Feng De looked at her. The scratches on her face had never been treated in any way. They just scabbed into a line and looked weak.
He sighed, "Then you have to be mentally prepared. If you get too excited, I will take you away at any time."
"good."
"The young master is not at home at this time, let's go to the study." Feng De said.
The two people walked towards Gong Ou's study. The entire castle was empty. There were far fewer people than before. The house seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, as if they could never reach the end no matter how far they walked.
Feng De opened the study door and Shi Xiaonian walked in. She had not been here for a long time.
Sunlight filtered in from the large floor-to-ceiling windows and fell on the fluffy carpet. She vaguely remembered the scene of playing with Gong Ou and reading a book together. It seemed like it happened in her previous life.
There was a large glass display window in the corner, which contained the wedding dresses and dresses she had seen before she was arrested, for a family of four and two children.
They were placed there, so beautiful and so white that they were holy.
Next to the curved desk, an easel was placed there. When Shi Xiaonian walked over, she saw that what was placed on the easel was her unfinished work before, the half-painted "Marriage Letter".
Shi Xiaonian bit her lip tightly, her eyes red.
"The young master has always put this painting here. He stays here and looks at it when he is not going to the company. He misses you very much." Feng De said standing behind her.
"Is he suffering a lot?" Shi Xiaonian asked.
Feng De held a black folder in his hand and nodded when he heard the words, "When you were not here at first, he would drink too much and tie himself up and hide in the corner. I was very afraid that the young master from back then would come back again."
Such a young master is so paranoid that he would even commit suicide.
“…”
When Xiaonian listened, her eyes became redder and redder.
"Later, the young master got better, but he became thinner and thinner, so thin that he almost lost his shape." Feng De said with a wry smile, "I also know that he went to see you not long ago, and even I I won’t tell you, for fear of leaking your information.”
“…”
Shi Xiaonian bit her lip until it turned white. After a long time, she let go of her lip and asked calmly, "Father, do you think it's worth doing this for me?"
She wasn't happy in the forest, and he tortured himself to the point of not looking good outside.
"You have to ask the young master about this, but I believe the answer is yes." As long as it is related to Xiao Nian, the young master will be the first. The whole world has to give way, and he himself has to give way.
"But my answer is no." Shi Xiaonian said.
“…”
Feng De looked at her in shock, wondering why she suddenly said such words. Was she really frightened by two consecutive incidents
Shi Xiaonian raised her hand and slowly touched the unfinished marriage certificate. Her fingertips touched the edge. It was a bright red festive border. The color was so red that it was dazzling. She murmured, "My My head can no longer wear the crown he gave me."
"Xiao Nian, a lot of things have happened to you during this time, right?" Feng De could feel that Xiao Nian was worried.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian was silent.
Feng De looked at her as if she didn't want to say more, so he put the black folder on the desk aside, opened it, and took out several documents and spread them out one by one.
Shi Xiaonian walked over, sat down in front of the desk, and looked down at the documents above. The first thing that caught her eye was the life and death of everyone in their forest.
Death toll: 4, including Little F.
Number of people missing: 5.
Serious injuries: 7
Minor injuries: 19.
Shi Xiaonian stared blankly at the report. Every name on it was familiar to her, and one or two pictures flashed before her eyes.
Little F died. It knocked down the crazy enemies and saved many of them.
The four people who died were all from her group. The first name was the one who asked them to enter the elevator and rushed out to meet the enemy...
They all wanted to save her life. She was thinking about reporting a message to Gong Ou, and she must report the letter.
"Father, please tell me what the whole thing is about?" Shi Xiaonian asked in a low voice, "At least I can explain it to them when I visit their graves."
Feng De stood there and looked at her. Xiao Nian had always been a very affectionate person, and seeing so many people die was definitely sad, but she was calmer than he thought.
"I didn't know about this at the beginning. The young master was even on guard against me. He was very cautious." Feng De slowly narrated, "In fact, from the beginning, the young master's plan was to press on Lancaster step by step and then go to England. There was another round of sweeps, but then he suddenly started studying robots and secretly studying Mr. Palace."
Study Mr. Palace
Shi Xiaonian was stunned, Feng De looked at her and said, "The young master told me later that you discovered that there was something wrong with Mr. Palace."
"I?"
Shi Xiaonian was a little surprised, and then she remembered that she and Gong Ou had mentioned that Mr Gong had autonomous consciousness. Because of this, Gong Ou began to study Mr Gong, so from that time on, he doubted Mr Gong.
But he didn't mention anything to her.
"Then what was found?" Shi Xiaonian asked.
"All the data of Mr's Palace showed that there was nothing wrong with it. Otherwise, it would have been detected during routine inspections. However, later the young master found that some of the data of Mr's Palace were a little shady. It looked within the normal range, but there was something wrong with it. Yes." Feng De said.
"What does this mean?" Shi Xiaonian immediately asked why the data in Mr. Palace had hidden meanings.
"There are two possibilities. One is that someone has changed the data. The person who can make such changes without revealing any trace is definitely a technological master. There is no such talent even in NE, and there is never heard of such a number in the world. character." Feng De said, "If the first one is ruled out, then the second possibility is that the robot upgrades itself, which is what you call autonomous consciousness. If this is true, it will be a very terrifying discovery."
If robots upgrade themselves, it means that the fabricated plots of some science fiction movies will come true.
"Have you not found out what the specific possibility is?" Shi Xiaonian asked. (To be continued)
