[R18] Global College Entrance Examination – “Global College Entrance Examination” Chapter 120 [English]
byChapter 120 The woman on the hospital bed┃I’m not here to save you, I’m here to love you.
Youhuo sat down in the chair by the window.
There was actually a chair opposite, but Qin Jiu didn’t sit on it.He lay on the back of Youhuo’s high chair and asked, “What are you looking for, so anxious to scroll through your phone?”
“Photos.” Youhuo didn’t hesitate and raised his phone.
“Newly received?” Qin Zhu reminded: “You didn’t go online?”
“No.” Youhuo glanced at he: “Don’t you ask me where you came from?”
“You can almost guess it.”
“The ranking of 001 is not in vain, my observation skills are not bad.”
Youhuo moved the phone’s center of gravity to his right hand so that Qin Zhu, who was above his head, could look at it together.
Qin Jiu exclaimed, “How about compared with those ranked A?”
Youhuo said without looking back: “Not even close.”
After saying that, his hair was lifted.
Youhuo let out a “tsk” in passive resistance and already clicked on the photo with his finger.
The photos are not high-definition, and there will always be obstructive water lines when taking pictures on the screen. What’s more, 021 was taken in a hurry, and the first picture was blurry.
But Qin Zhu could still recognize that what was being photographed was a surveillance screen, and what was on the screen was someone’s confinement room.
he was a little surprised.
“Whose?” Qin Zhu asked, scratching his head.
“Lao Yu.” You Huo enlarged the picture, pointed at a figure in the picture and said, “Here it is.”
Although his face was blurred into a mosaic, Lao Yu’s posture of hooking his neck forward was really unique.
The pale bed and the mushy flower basket were also very distinctive, and Youhuo recognized them at a glance: “It should be in the hospital.”
Qin Zhu lowered his fingers, moved the photo to the right, revealed another mosaic on the bed and asked, “Who is this?”
Youhuo hesitated.
This seems to be the only thing in the whole photo that makes him feel strange.
Qin Zhu looked at the mosaics and was a little confused about the purpose of 021: “Are there any other photos? The ones where you can see the eyes and nose clearly.”
Youhuo was still stunned.
After two seconds, he nodded and slid to the next photo.
The picture became clear instantly, just like someone with high myopia finally put on glasses.
This time, there was no need to zoom in to see clearly the facial features of the person on the bed.
“Do you know him?” Qin Jiu asked.
He glanced at Youhuo, who frowned slightly and stared at the seriously ill woman, seeming to be trying hard to pretend that she wasn’t sick, but also seemed to be in a trance.
After a while, he saw Youhuo’s brows furrowed, his tight lips pulled out a self-deprecating smile, and he said, “I know you, my mother.”
Qin Zhu was completely stunned.
For a moment, he suddenly didn’t know what to say.
He thought it was some distant relative of You Huo, or even an unrelated stranger…
I never expected this answer.
Youhuo looked at the photo in silence for a long time, until someone scratched his face soothingly with his fingers.
he came back to his senses and glanced at Qin Zhu: “Isn’t it a little surprising?”
Qin Jiu said: “It’s true.”
“She——” Youhuo’s eyes fell back on the photo, and he said in a deep voice: “She passed away very early. I remember what she looked like when she was not sick, but it was too long and blurry, and the photo was a bit distorted, so…”
He was silent for a few seconds: “I didn’t recognize her just now, so I’m a little sorry for her.”
The light in the room had a single tone, making the face and lips almost the same color, making it look like… He was feeling sad because of the sudden appearance of this photo and the sudden appearance of the person in the photo.
“It should be about this time.” Youhuo’s voice was still calm, but low.He pointed at the photo and said: “Lao Yu had a very good relationship with her. It seems that he was responsible for everything before and after his death. My theoretical father is said to be a painter, a wandering sect, right? The kind who just runs away without a trace if he doesn’t want to stay. I have never seen him, and no one will mention it in front of me…”
Speaking of this, he’s usual sarcastic tone came out again, but he put it back in the blink of an eye.
He always used words like “should” and “as if” in this passage. Qin Zhu was keenly aware that he was vague and unfamiliar with that time, or those people and things.
Maybe it’s because he was still young at that time, but…
Youhuo seems to be able to read his thoughts.
After a moment of silence, he explained: “I have been studying in boarding schools, including elementary school, junior high school, high school and later the military school. When I was a child, no one took care of me——”
He looked at the woman in the photo and said: “She is too busy. I can only see her when I go home on weekends or monthly vacations… and I can’t see her every time.”
In my impression, she always seems to be wearing a white coat, either just coming back or about to go out again.
There wasn’t much communication between them. Maybe it was because mother and son were too similar, and neither of them were lively and enthusiastic people.
When Youhuo was very young, he would ask her when he encountered problems.
She is a smart and powerful person who can always give accurate answers, but the way of expression is too adult and difficult for children to understand.Then she will use more rational and complex things to explain the previous answer.
It was as if she was not facing a child of several years old, but a scholar or colleague.
Because the memory is really too weak and too little, when I think of her, my facial features are blurred, and I only remember a touch of white.
Youhuo recovered from his extremely vague memory and said to Qin Zhu, “This is what I remember…it may have been tampered with.”
Chu Yue’s words from last time are still in our ears, and they remember them very clearly.
Chu Yue said that Youhuo’s childhood and adolescence were tied to the system. The upgrade core of the system was hidden in his eyes, seeing what he saw and experiencing what he experienced.If you have no memory of this, your memory must have been disturbed.
Interference is bound to exist, but Qin Zhu hopes that things about his family, at least about his parents, can remain somewhat true to You Huo.
Because he has an intuition…
If these are disturbed, the truth may make Youhuo even more unhappy.
Qin Zhu looked at the photo in a daze.
The woman was leaning on the bedside, holding Lao Yu’s hand and explaining something.
After looking at her for a long time, I can indeed see a certain familiarity in her eyebrows.Qin Zhu looked carefully, hoping to see some regret or deep emotions in the blurry images.
But no.
It’s like she’s talking about something insignificant.
Qin Jiu said: “The tampering should be the parts related to the system, these are not included.”
“Not necessarily.” Youhuo rubbed his finger across the screen and turned to Qin Jiu and said, “She’s disease progressed very quickly. During the time she was in the hospital, I never went there once. According to my memory, I should have never seen this scene, but…”
“A bet?” Youhuo said casually, as if he was talking about some small game to kill time.
He swiped his finger back and changed the photo.
The woman was still talking, but Lao Yu was extremely excited.
Make another stroke.
The woman was indifferent, clutching her hair, as if she was making a difficult choice.
Keep paddling.
After another picture, a third person finally appeared in the picture.
That was when you confused yourself many years ago. According to his memory, he shouldn’t have appeared in the ward.
The moment he saw this photo, he suddenly grasped something.
He seemed to smell a strong smell of disinfectant, which was a special smell unique to hospitals…
There was also Lao Yu’s stunned face.
After wondering for a long time, he snorted softly.
“Look, the bet is won.”
he lifted the phone up.
His fingers suddenly became empty, and someone took the phone away.
“Not necessarily.” Qin Jiu put his arms around him, his muscles warm and firm, “It’s just a confinement room, it doesn’t mean it’s completely real.”
Youhuo said “hmm”.
It was a dark night outside the window, and the figures of He and Qin Zhu were clearly reflected on the glass. Although they were virtual shadows, they were more real than any memory.
He suddenly felt that it didn’t matter.
“Lao Yu, I want to ask clearly. I think he also wants to say something.” Youhuo said.
In just a blink of an eye, he’s tone was much better than before.
Qin Jiu responded: “Choose a suitable time.”
“Wu Li said he had something to tell us last time, but the conversation hasn’t been completed yet,” You Huo added.
“Pick the right time too.”
“I suspect it’s the same thing on both sides.”
“That would be better, check for leaks and fill in the gaps.”
Youhuo nodded, the hair on the back of his head brushing against Qin Zhu’s chest: “But Lao Yu may not necessarily tell the truth.”
“Don’t forget your silly brother. If you really can’t do it, you can bluff him.” Qin Zhu reminded.
“It makes sense.”
“What about me?” Qin Jiu asked.
Youhuo looked sideways at he, his thin eyelids drawn into narrow arcs by the light: “What are you?”
“Mr. Examiner secretly made a list of liquidation, but only missed the biggest enemy. I am very embarrassed.” Qin Zhu simply joked.
Youhuo looked at he through half-closed eyes, suddenly stretched out his hand to rub his neck and Adam’s apple, and said softly: “Examiner Gi’s punishment task…just make the examiner happy.”
…
The curtains are thick and light-tight when closed.
The windowpane was covered with the coolness of the night, which could still reach the house through the fabric, but it was completely invisible in the bathroom.
The thin and slender palms were pressed against the steam-filled glass, stretched and bent by the steaming heat and rushing water.
The water flowed down Youhuo’s neck, along the thin texture of his shoulders, back and waist, to his mermaid line and hips.
Qin Zhu’s kiss fell on You Huo’s shoulder. The other person raised his neck and turned to look over with narrowed eyes.
He knows that his big examiner is a tough guy. No matter what he sees, what he thinks of, or what he encounters, he can always calm himself down as normal in the fastest and shortest time.
Between us, we never need one-sided comfort and pity.
I’m not here to save you, I’m here to love you.
