Chapter 471: Meeting old acquaintances in a foreign land

My stomach was churning and I vomited until I was in a state of confusion. Several times I felt that killing someone was just a nod away. Why torture people in such a cruel way

The long tube went straight down the throat into the stomach, and the medicine that was poured in mixed with stomach acid and overflowed from the throat. In the chaos, I grabbed someone's clothes, and I couldn't tell whether it was tears or water on my face.

But in the final analysis, human life is still a toss-up. Many times I thought I was going to die. But it was just about dying, and he didn't die in the end.

After a deep sleep, I vaguely heard the sound of someone talking, and when I opened my eyes again. What comes into view is a familiar yet unfamiliar scenery. The reason is familiarity. Because the layout of the hospitals is mostly the same.

I glanced out of the corner of my eye and saw an infusion going on in my right hand. The transparent hanging bottle fell on top of my head, and drop by drop of fluid quickly entered my body. The voice came from the right side. I turned my head with difficulty and realized that I was separated by a hospital bed. There was also a woman lying there. Next to the woman sat two other women of similar age.

One of them whispered: "Why are you so stupid? Is it worth killing yourself for him?"

My heart skipped a beat. suicide

I look sick and sick, but now I still have the energy to read other people’s gossip. Turning my head sideways, I saw the woman lying in bed next to me. His face turned pale. Set against the loose black hair.

My brain was frozen for more than half a minute, so I watched the excitement for a while before I started to think about it, why am I here

Just as I was thinking about it, the door directly opposite was pushed open. I looked up and saw the man who came in. He was tall and tall, wearing a black uniform. He looked very much like a waiter.

None of this surprises me. What makes me stunned is...

I looked at him and said in disbelief: "Brother Danqing?"

The voice sounded hoarse and deep, as if soaked in vinegar for a year. It was accompanied by a burning feeling, which made me frown.

Zhang Danqing walked in with a bag. Seeing my eyes open, he quickly stepped forward, put the bag on the small table, and said with a worried look on his face: "Zijin, are you awake?"

Still frowning, I looked at Zhang Danqing right in front of me. I suppressed the discomfort in my throat and asked dryly and hoarsely: "Brother Danqing, why are you here?"

Shouldn't Zhang Danqing be in Liangcheng? Or am I going back to Liangcheng this time? What's going on

Zhang Danqing stood beside the hospital bed and looked at me condescendingly. He tucked me in and said, "Zijin, you were drugged in a nightclub and became delirious. I happened to work there, so I took him with me." You came here for gastric lavage."

Following Zhang Danqing's words, things that I hadn't had time to think about before came into my mind.

Yes, I took Rong Xin and his gang to the nightclub, but then... I frowned, as if I had been drinking for a while, and I couldn't remember anything.

When Zhang Danqing saw this, he stared at my face, his eyes full of worry and distress. He asked me: "How did you get drugged? Who did you go with? Did you drink a lot of wine?"

I subconsciously replied: "I didn't drink..."

Many images flashed through my mind like a slide show. I was sitting on the sofa in a nightclub, haryy, they all asked me to drink, but I was careful not to drink. I ended up having a few drinks, but I was far from drunk.

Zhang Danqing frowned and said, "Then who did you go with? Didn't the people around you watch for you?"

My brows kept furrowing because I thought of Rong Xin. Something happened when we were together with them, so of course I would blame her.

Seeing that I didn't say a word, Zhang Danqing opened the bag next to him, took out a bottle of mineral water from it, unscrewed it, helped me stand up, and said, "Gastric lavage can hurt your throat. The doctor told you to drink more water."

I was supported by Zhang Danqing and forced to sit up. My whole body was limp and I even felt a little uncomfortable. Especially the arms and back touched by Zhang Danqing felt numb and itchy for no reason. This scared me so much that I almost instinctively ducked back.

Zhang Danqing felt it, because there was something unnatural in the way he looked at me. After a pause, he put a pillow on my back, and then quickly withdrew his hand.

I noticed that he inadvertently took a step back, farther away from me.

These small details suddenly reminded me of the nightmare I had just had, and a layer of fine goose bumps spread all over my body, and I was immediately unable to move.

Zhang Danqing didn’t know what I was thinking, but his hand holding the mineral water bottle was still in mid-air. Seeing that I didn't answer, he pushed it forward a few inches and said, "Drink more water. I'll buy you some food later."

I tried to stay calm and took the water bottle from Zhang Danqing. Instead of drinking it immediately, I looked at him and said, "Why did you come to Night City all of a sudden?"

Zhang Danqing said: "Xiaowei picked up my parents and went to Binhai, saying that I would show them around. It was too cold in the Northeast and the construction site was suspended. We had to wait until the next spring to start again. I didn't want to be idle, so I came to Night City to find a job. Do it first."

I asked, "When did you come? Why didn't you tell me?"

Zhang Danqing said casually: "You are also very busy at work, and I would like to come see you again when I have time."

I was lying on the hospital bed, and Zhang Danqing pulled up a stool and sat two meters away from me. At first glance, he seemed to be deliberately distant, and those who didn't know better thought he was a family member in the bed next to him.

I was chatting with Zhang Danqing, but what I wanted to ask the most was what happened last night. But I was a little scared when the inexplicable words came to my mouth, because I couldn't tell the difference between dreams and reality.

Reason is telling me that since it was Zhang Danqing who saved me, then last night's dream was 10,000% false. Anyone could take advantage of someone's danger, but Zhang Danqing would not. But just now Zhang Danqing came over to help me. When I was there, the tingling feeling in the place where he touched me was extremely real.

The bad past came flooding back, and I thought about the time when someone drugged me in Lanzhou. Luo Xiangdong and I almost had a gunshot, and it was also because of the drug.

If I was given this kind of medicine... then Zhang Danqing and I...

While I was thinking about it in my heart, the ward door directly opposite was pushed open, and Zhang Danqing and I both instinctively looked up. A young nurse came towards me carrying a tray.

There were two large bottles of medicine on the tray. The nurse put the tray on the bedside table and said while changing the medicine for me: "There is still residual methoxy in your body. Only after hanging these two bottles can the remaining medicine be diluted."

I was embarrassed to ask Zhang Danqing, so I looked at the little nurse and asked in a hoarse voice: "What is that?"

The little nurse helped me slow down the watering process. She didn't look at me and replied without changing her face: "Libido is an oral aphrodisiac for women."

I:"… "

From the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of several people in the bed next to me looking over. I was completely numb and motionless, not knowing what to do.

The little nurse said to Zhang Danqing: "When she finishes these two bottles, ask me to come over and take out the injection."

Zhang Danqing also looked embarrassed, nodded, and whispered: "Okay."

It would be easier if this was a single ward. In the ward, there were not only Zhang Danqing and I, but also three women next door. I really wanted to die, and the blood rushed to my face.

There was a brief silence, with embarrassment floating in the air. I don’t know how long it took, but Zhang Danqing finally looked at me and said loudly: "Zijin, who have you been in contact with at night? Can you think of who gave you the medicine?"

"I have never been in contact with strangers..."

My head was in a daze, and I looked at Zhang Danqing, but all I saw in front of me were scenes from my nightmare. Me and him... can't we

Zhang Danqing said: "There are so many people in the nightclub, why are you so careless? Fortunately, I met you today, otherwise..."

He also choked, and then said: "You thought I was Luo Xiangdong, I will take you to the hospital quickly for gastric lavage."

When Zhang Danqing finished speaking, my heart, which had been hanging in the air, suddenly dropped.

I added anxiously: "How about I didn't do it in public?"

After taking this medicine, the whole person's spirit is in a state of confusion. It is reasonable to say that he does not recognize his relatives.

Zhang Danqing was looking at me, but when I asked, his eyes dodge a little, and then he replied: "It's okay, the nightclub is pitch black, you can't see anything, and no one recognizes you. I saw you." When you were there, you were fine and no one bullied you.”

I instinctively breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but say, "I'm scared to death."

Afraid, I am really afraid. Let alone being secretly drugged by someone, if I make any mistake, how will I face Luo Xiangdong later

Zhang Danqing said: "Don't worry, drink more water and have a good rest."

I nodded and took a big sip from the mineral water bottle. Although my throat hurt, I gritted my teeth and endured it. This incident is definitely not an accident. My intuition tells me that it must be related to Rong Xin. If I find evidence that she harmed me, I will definitely tear her apart with my own hands!

After drinking the water, I looked at the bag placed by the bedside and took out my mobile phone. The screen showed that I had seven or eight missed calls and several unread text messages, all from Luo Xiangdong.

I took a look at the text message first. It was nothing more than that he called me after he finished his work. I didn't answer because he was worried that something might happen to me.

I had always thought it was midnight, but now I realized it was already five o'clock in the morning.

I didn't call Luo Xiangdong immediately. Instead, I found Rong Xin's phone number and called her.

If something like this happened to me, I would like to see what she means.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable, please wait..."

Rong Xin's side showed that it couldn't be reached. I frowned and looked unhappy.

Zhang Danqing was sitting at the end of my bed. When he saw this, he looked at me and said, "Who should I call?"

I whispered back: "Today we are taking a group to the nightclub." After saying that, I looked up at him and said, "Brother Danqing, when you sent me to the hospital, didn't you see anyone who knew me?"

Zhang Danqing shook his head: "When I saw you in the nightclub, I saw something was wrong with you, so I sent you here quickly. I didn't see anyone who knew you."

A woman's sixth sense is always very accurate. Since it was not a coincidence and Rong Xin and the others took the initiative to suggest going to the nightclub, I don't believe that this matter has nothing to do with them.
