Through the glass wall of the special ward, one could clearly see the pale and sickly boy on the hospital bed. At this point, Yao Shiwangyi, he still looks calm.
The head of the bed and the window sill are filled with all kinds of cut flowers, which resemble the life of this youth. Extremely gorgeous, fleeting.
"For example morning dew."
Xia Yuzhou sighed softly, pulled up the mask hanging on his chin to cover his face, put one hand in his pocket, hummed a little song leisurely and walked towards the door.
"Sing to wine, how much life is. Like the morning dew, go to... the sun!"
"Click", the door of the ward suddenly opened from the inside, and a young doctor in a white coat walked out. The slender figure came into view, like a cold popsicle stuck straight into the hot oil pan, crackling and blasting the melodious ending sound into swear words.
The doctor seemed to have sensed it, and turned to look at Xia Yuzhou's place.
It's empty.
"Doctor Si?" The nurse beside him reminded in a low voice.
The doctor looked away, took the form from the nurse, took out a pen from his breast pocket, and signed it.
The gold-plated nib makes an even rustling sound when rubbed against the paper. Such volume was not enough to maintain the voice-activated lights, and the lights in the corridor behind the corner gradually went out, submerging Xia Yuzhou in darkness.
"I'm off work. Watch out and don't let him run out again."
Lingling's deep voice was like a pine wind blowing on the strings, rushing towards him like boiling water, there was no way to avoid it, it was so hot that Xia Yuzhou almost jumped out of the window.
Si Jun.
It really is him!
Why is he here
Xia Yuzhou listened to the sound of footsteps fading away with trembling fingertips, and slowly poked his head out from the corner. Looking at the direction in which the person disappeared, and then at the brightly lit ward, he turned and left decisively.
Today I am here to do good deeds. Even if the young man received the most advanced treatment, his survival rate is not high. The only one who can completely save him is Xia Yuzhou. On the night of the murderous night, when the moon was dark and the wind was high, when he was saving lives and healing the wounded, he happened to meet the person he least wanted to meet.
"Young man, it seems that we are not destined." To do good deeds, the good person must be alive first.
Xia Yuzhou sighed, put the hood on his head, tightened the black mask on his face, and walked out quickly and silently. There are two doors at the front and back of the hospital. He walked in the opposite direction to the doctor's office, so he should not be able to touch them. Even if he was unlucky enough to walk through the same door, Si Jun would have to take off his white coat and change into casual clothes when he returned to the office. Since the man's fur is so rough that ten minutes can't be tidied up, it's enough for him to walk out of the hospital.
The more nervous you are, the better your memory will be. Everything in front of me is clearly imprinted in my mind, neat floor tiles, yellow medical trash cans, auxiliary handrails on the wall, dark and remote corridors, and nine yuan and nine white coats that get in the way, just like being in a horror escape game.
Twenty meters, ten meters, five meters...
The long corridor finally came to an end, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and there was no one around. Before he could catch his breath, there was a sudden "ding-" sound, which made him jump on the spot and almost threw his phone across the courtyard wall.
A new message.
[Senior: Yuzhou, this is the video of this year's "Brain" finals. It's kind of abrupt, but I hope you'll take a look. He's only sixteen, and he's a real genius, just like you were back then.]
"Zhi Brain" is a brain competition program, and the content of the competition involves shorthand, mathematics, logical reasoning and other aspects. The participants were all teenagers with outstanding IQs, showing the audience the difference between geniuses and ordinary people without any dead ends.
And the boy in the ward who booked the business seat on the special train was the champion of this year.
"The global champion of the 5th Brain Contest was born. He is a sixteen-year-old genius boy, Chen Mo! This is the pinnacle of global brain power and the ceiling of human wisdom! And he is only sixteen years old, and his future is limitless. His future is bright!" In the video, the host excitedly handed the microphone to the indifferent young man, "Do you have anything to say at this moment?"
The boy raised his eyelids and glanced at the host, then reluctantly took the microphone: "The logic of your line is wrong. If I am the peak of brain power, what are the previous four champions?"
Host: "... huh?"
Xia Yuzhou paused, staring at the child on the screen who was questioning with dead fish eyes, raised his eyebrows slightly. Tsk, what an arrogant and obnoxious kid.
Turn off the video and reply casually:
[Senior remembers wrongly, I'm not a genius.]
[Also, I hate geniuses the most.]
Mute the phone, put it in the trouser pocket, and turn around on the spot.
At night, the human vegetal sympathetic nerves are suppressed, and the perception of pain will be enhanced. In the usual seriously ill area, even if there are no ghosts and wolves howling, there should be many people tossing and turning, sleepless and noisy. But not here, it is eerily peaceful, only the low voice of conversation coming from a few wards with open doors.
"Your resistance is very low now, and you really can't go out. Doctor Si got angry because you sneaked away last night. His cold face is so frightening that my legs are weak." The nurse gave the teenager Changing the dressing, chattering softly.
The young man didn't seem to hear it, holding a book with a black gilt cover and reading it ecstatically, and it took seven or eight seconds before he replied: "Are you sure you're scared?"
"You child, what are you talking about!" The sister nurse blushed instantly, and threatened him with anger, "Anyway, don't run outside, especially at night, this is the Affiliated Hospital of Medical University, be careful of being eaten by vampires."
"You've also heard of vampires in the Medical University?" The boy suddenly raised his head, staring straight at the nurse with a pair of dark deer eyes.
The nurse's cheeks twitched slightly, with a bad feeling. Sure enough, the next second:
"Can you be more specific?"
"The rumors of vampires in the Medical University started five years ago. Are there any traces in recent years?"
"Where did it appear at that time, and the person bitten by it died or disappeared?"
…
"Why don't you say it, you graduated from a medical university, right?"
This hospital is an affiliated hospital of a medical university, and next to it is the best medical university in the country. Because the full name is too long, people habitually call it "medical university". Most of the doctors and nurses working here are graduates and professors of medical universities.
"No..." The nurse blushed. The admission threshold for medical universities is extremely high, and even nursing majors need super high scores to get in.
"Then how did you get into the attached courtyard?" The young man looked at her curiously, not contemptuous, nor joking, but asked seriously, no different from discussing serious academic issues.
"I asked someone to come in through my relationship, okay?"
"No wonder you said yesterday that you are not worthy of your boss doctor."
"Chen Mo!" The nurse sister's sudden roar made the hanging paintings in the corridor tremble, "Your medicine has been changed! I warn you one last time, if you dare to run out today, you will be locked up in the ICU for constant monitoring!"
After all, he picked up the tray and left without looking back.
When Meng's mother came, Yin Yin cut off the machine, and when she went, Zhang Fei roared at Changbanpo.
Xia Yuzhou was outside the door, laughing and laughing. It is a miracle that this child has not been beaten to death until now. Slowly raised his hand and knocked on the door: "I'm from the Medical University, shall we chat?"
"Who are you?"
"doctor."
The boy who was putting on his shoes quickly looked up at the person leaning against the door.
This person seemed to be wearing a white coat, but the style was different from that of Dr. Si and the others, and he was wearing a black mask that obviously did not meet the regulations. What's even more exaggerated is that the hat of the blue hoodie is still exposed behind the white coat! Not to mention doctors, scalpers who sell accounts are not so laughing.
"I'm from another department, so you probably haven't seen me before." Xia Yuzhou conjured a half-dead carnation out of nowhere and inserted it into a glass bottle beside the bed, "I'm a fan of yours. Come and see me after get off work. Where is this going?"
The boy ignored him and continued to tie his shoelaces.
Xia Yuzhou pulled up a stool and sat by the bed. On the bed lay the book with a black cover, with the title "Secret of the Blood Race" in gold letters.
"Are you planning to go to the Medical University to look for that vampire?"
These words finally aroused the interest of the young boy, he slowly got up and took a breath: "You know him?"
Xia Yuzhou picked up the book and flipped through it: "Tell me first, why are you looking for a vampire?"
"I want to ask him to give me my first hug."
"Huh?" Xia Yuzhou didn't know why.
The boy raised his hand, held down the flipped page, and clicked on the chapter title—The Embrace.
"First Embrace, the English is The Embrace, a way to transform human beings into blood races. According to the records in the book, it is probably that vampires suck up human blood first, and then let dying people suck their own blood, thus transforming them into The same kind." The boy explained seriously.
"Actually, I don't think it's accurate to translate it into First Embrace. Embrace should be understood as faith and conversion. Converting to the Blood Race, converting to the Darkness."
of darkness
The corners of Xia Yuzhou's mouth twitched. This is the student chosen by his seniors, a young genius, a rising star in the scientific world, who has become feudal and superstitious before he even went to college: "Aren't you a student of Professor He? Don't look at this stuff at a young age." Do not believe in science, only believe in these far-fetched things."
"When a person is in a desperate situation, there must be some sustenance." The boy shrugged.
His disease can only be cured by bone marrow transplantation. However, due to physical reasons, even if the transplantation is successful, the survival rate is very low.
On the face that was so pale that it was almost transparent, there was a flash of fatigue that did not belong to this age. "You do not understand."
"Okay, I don't understand." Xia Yuzhou stepped on the side of the bed with one foot, opened the memo and flipped through the lines he had prepared before coming here. He couldn't use a single sentence, so he simply turned off the phone, "But how do you know that becoming a blood clan can cure you?" Sick? Even if it can be cured, being a vampire who can't see the light may make life more painful... "
"Even if you live like a bug, as long as you live," the young man interrupted Xia Yuzhou's long speech, took the book and put it under his armpit, walked out with his head down, walked to the door and waved his back to Xia Yuzhou, "Thank you for talking with me about this , I still have things to do, bye."
Xia Yuzhou was amused by this cool and second-year-old line, stood up very cooperatively, and said in the tone of the mysterious grandfather in the anime, "I have seen your determination! So young, are you willing to convert to the blood race?"
"What did you say?"
Suddenly look back.
The black mask was slowly lowered under the young man's astonished eyes.
Xia Yuzhou grinned, revealing a sharp and long fang: "Embracing at the beginning is an imported word, and our Huaxia people call it blood to return to relatives. My blood, blending with your blood, and returning to the blood clan are the relatives. Since then, Live an extraordinary life, and die an unnatural death. Will you?"
