Monument of Life and Death

  Chapter 487 Ward No. 3

   "Ling," For a while, Xiaolan turned her head and smiled to look at Xiang Ling, "How about we go there to find auntie?"

  Ling shrank her neck and shook her head somewhat resistingly.

   "What's the matter?" Xiaolan turned to face Ling.

   "Mom won't let me interfere with her work," Ling glanced timidly in the direction of the skyscraper. "Mom said children shouldn't understand those things."

  "What's the matter? What about work?"

  Ling lowered her head and gave a melancholy "um".

   Xiaolan thought for a while, "Do you want to know what her mother was like when she was working?"

Ling raised her face, her eyes lit up.

   "That's it. I'll go to the building and see how my mother works," Xiaolan led, "Ling will wait here for me to come back, okay?"

Ling's shoulders straightened up, and she seemed to agree to this plan.

  Xiaolan placed Ling on a chair and handed her the cookies. After arranging everything, Xiaolan who successfully threw off Ling and set off on the road to the skyscraper.

  It was three or four o'clock in the afternoon, which should be the busy time for people in various industries. Xiaolan passed through the rushing crowd and stood at the door of the building.

  Through the bright revolving door, you can directly see the gorgeous appearance in the lobby on the first floor.

  Inside the revolving door, there are two security guards standing one on the left and the other on the right. In the lobby, four check-in machines blocked the way to the elevator and stairs.

  Xiaolan followed a few adults in suits into the lobby and walked straight to the front desk.

  "Miss Sister," Xiaolan walked up to the kindest-looking Rapunzel girl sweetly, "I...I'm looking for my aunt."

  The girl with long hair bends over to Xiaolan in surprise, "My kid, who is your aunt?"

  The other two sisters at the front desk also came over.

  "I don't know her name..." Xiaolan pretended to be lost, "I only know that her daughter is Ling. I am her daughter's friend, and I have something to give to her."

   "Ling?" The long-haired girl looked at her colleagues on both sides in confusion.

   "Sister Ling," the ball **** the left elbows Rapunzel. "The director of the investment company on the 13th floor is very nice, and she gave us gifts. Her daughter is very cute."

   "What? People say her daughter is Ling." The long-haired girl stunned and went back.

"Sister Ling has the same name as her daughter, she told us before," another girl with short curly hair interjected, "but this kid shouldn't be her. I heard that sister Ling hasn't gone to work for several days. ."

  "Why haven't you been to work for several days?" Xiaolan asked quickly when she saw the right time.

   "Yes, why?" Rapunzel also asked.

  The girl with short curly hair glanced right and left, and mysteriously cleared her throat, "You... haven't you heard of it?"

   Xiaolan and the other two girls shook their heads gossiping.

   "That sister Ling seems...like something has happened," the girl with short curly hair lowered her voice, "It seems to be quite serious."

   "What's the matter?" Rapunzel asked.

The voices of the three of them were getting lower and lower. Xiaolan stood on tiptoe and listened hard. Finally, the girl with short curly hair noticed the eavesdropping figure, she quickly stopped talking, bent over and said to Xiaolan, "My kid, you go back. , The person you are looking for is not in the company now."

  "Where is she?" Xiaolan asked persistently.

  The girl with short curly hair sighed, "Children, we are just the front desk in this office building, and we don’t know the specific movements of the employees of each company."

   "But Ling is really anxious. She hasn't seen her aunt for many days," Xiaolan stamped her foot in anxiously, "What happened to Auntie?"

  The girl with short curly hair looked left and right, straightened up impatiently, and said angrily, "Her daughter doesn't know, how can we know."

"Mengmeng, don't be like this," the long-haired girl pulled the angry short curly-haired girl away, and said to Xiaolan. "Little girl, you have seen it too. We really don’t know what happened, but ...But I can give you the contact number of our colleague on the 13th floor. If there is something urgent, you should still find her. Oh, by the way, kids, try to contact that sister during off-hours."

  The long-haired girl said, and handed Xiaolan a piece of paper. On the piece of paper were a string of phone numbers written in a carbon pen and a name-Li Li.

  "Xiaocan, you..." Girls with short curly hair seem to be very incomprehensible with what they do with long hair.

   "Oh, what if someone really has something to do," the long-haired girl waved her hand and looked at Xiao Lan with a smile on her face. "My kid, it's almost time to get off work here, you go home soon."

  No more entanglement, Xiaolan thanked the three people, and walked out of the building pathetically holding the note.

  At least this trip was also rewarding. Xiaolan looked at the note in her hand and wondered where she could make a free phone call.

Xiaolan estimated that they should get off work at five o'clock, so they wandered on the street for a while. When it was more than five o'clock, Xiaolan found a convenience store. With her outstanding acting skills, she successfully borrowed the shop owner's uncle. Phone.

When    dialed the number, Xiaolan was still a little nervous.

  Beep...beep...beep...

   is connected.

"Hello."

  "Hello, hello," Xiaolan hugged the phone, "I...I am, uh...do you know Ling's mother? She also works in the building."

  "Ling's mother?" The **** the other end of the phone was a little confused, "Which Ling's mother?"

   "Ling's mother, her name is also Ling," Xiaolan hurriedly poured out the news she had just learned, "It's the director on the 13th floor, her name is...Sister Ling."

  The girl over there was silent for a few seconds, "Are you looking for Sister Ling?"

   "Well, I am a friend of her daughter," Xiaolan said, "she has something to give to auntie."

  Li Li sighed, "Sister Ling...Sister Ling is no longer in the company."

   "Sister, do you know where I should find her?"

   "Her daughter...Is it something that her daughter put in your place before?" Li Li's voice was dull.

   Xiaolan thought for a while, and agreed first, "Hmm."

   "Hey--" Li Li was silent again, and after that, the phone rustled and rummaged, "Go to the hospital and find her."

  "Doctor...hospital?" Xiaolan's surprise was true.

  So, Ling's mother is not dead?

"In Honglin Surgical Hospital, in Ward No. 3 on the first floor, Sister Ling should not be awake now, but her family is there. If you have something, you can give it to her family," Li Li said in a low voice, "You are now Go and hand it to her, maybe...it can help her a little...can you find it?"

   "Huh? Yes, thank you sister."

After    hung up the phone, everything that was already clear began to blur again.

   Xiaolan originally thought that this was the story of a dead mother who was reluctant to bear her daughter and turned into a ghost to take care of her daughter, but now it seems that it is not that simple.

  However, knowing that Ling's mother is not dead is a good thing.

   asked the owner of the convenience store for the specific address of the hospital, Xiaolan wandered there. It was almost six o'clock, and the sky had begun to change.

  When she saw the huge sign of Honglin Surgical Hospital, Xiaolan suddenly thought, why did Ling’s mother have an accident, but Ling didn’t know anything about it?

   Was Ling's mother asked for it?

   Xiaolan shook her head and walked towards the inpatient department.

  "Hello, I would like to ask, there was a woman who had a car accident the other day. Is... is she living here?"

  Xiaolan has a dilemma.

  "Where is the patient's name? Kid." The nurse asked gently.

   "It's Ling," Xiaolan pretended to be pitiful with low brows, "I am her daughter's friend, and her daughter has something to give to her."

   "Ling?" The little nurse flipped through the register, "I need a full name, kid, there is more than one patient with Ling in his name."

   "Ward No. 3," Xiaolan said hurriedly, "She lives in Ward No. 3."

  The little nurse turned over again, "Ward No. 3...Ms. Xu Yiling?"

   "Yes!" Xiaolan nodded whether it was right or not.

  The little nurse put down the booklet in her hand and looked up Xiaolan, "Are you a friend of the patient's daughter?"

   Xiaolan straightened up and nodded.

  The doubt in the eyes of the little nurse did not disappear. She pointed to the left, "The third room on the left corner."

  It was dinner time, there were a lot of people in the corridor, and the whole first floor was filled with a faint smell of food. Xiaolan counted the doors of the ward and stood at the door of the third ward.

  Take a deep breath.

  Just as Xiaolan was about to push the door, it was pulled open from the inside.

  A female nurse in white walked out. The nurse saw Xiaolan, was stunned, and bowed her head and said, "Little girl, are you looking for someone?"

  "I'm looking for Aunt Xu Yiling." Xiaolan looked in the door.

   "Auntie hasn't woken up yet, what can you do with her?" The nurse asked with a smile.

   "I have something to give to her," Xiaolan put her hand in her pocket, as if there was something in it, "It's her daughter's."

  The nurse's eyes flickered, and she straightened up, stepped aside, and said, "Go in."

There was no other person in the ward. On the spacious hospital bed, there was a person covered with gauze. There were various tubes in his body and gauze on his head. Only a pale face was visible. outside.

  She had an oxygen mask buttoned on her mouth, her eyes closed tightly, and she was motionless. Only the ECG monitor on the side could show that she was a living person.

   Xiaolan sat on the edge of the hospital bed, looking at the woman's face.

  Even though it was wrapped in gauze, Xiaolan could still tell that this was Ling's mother.

  She is not dead.

  She is still alive.

   "Auntie," Xiaolan whispered, "Auntie, can you hear me?"

  I don't know if it was an illusion or something else, Xiaolan vaguely felt that the woman's eyelids seemed to move.

   "Auntie..."

  Suddenly there was a conversation between two women outside the door.

   "I came to see your sister again?" This was the voice of the nurse just now.

   "Yes, what else can I do," the other voice was strange, "Yes, nurse, how is my sister's recovery? Did that matter the night before yesterday affect her much?"

"Oh-I can't hide it from you, this is indeed the first time we have seen this kind of thing, especially the patient's body is still in such a state, it is impossible to say that it has no effect... it is impossible, right? "

  The night before?

   is the night Ling saw something strange.

   "It's also...Thanks for your hard work, my sister's situation, morning and evening... I also trouble you all this morning."

"You are polite, what is so troublesome about this, this is our duty, and you can rest assured that the patient’s cardiac arrest symptoms, sooner or later, after our treatment, have been much better, and may not appear again tonight. There are similar symptoms, but as a family member, we still recommend that you stay with the patient often so that you can have immediate feedback on the patient’s condition."

   "Yes, yes, we all know that we stay in bed every night. It's not that something happened the night before and left a little earlier. I didn't expect this to happen... It's so dangerous, fortunately there are you..."

   "You are polite... By the way, there is a friend of the patient's daughter in the ward who is visiting."

  "Xiaoling's friend?..."

  The two said, the door opened with a squeak, Xiaolan hurriedly stood up and looked at them.

   "You are..." A somewhat older woman walked into the ward and stared at Xiaolan.

   "Auntie, I am Ling's friend." Xiaolan confessed quickly.

  At this moment, the ECG monitor suddenly sounded an alarm.

  The nurse rushed into the ward to check the tester. After a while, a few doctors and nurses rushed in.

   Xu Yiling's head swayed from side to side, her eyebrows frowned, she seemed to be struggling to wake up.

  The middle-aged woman ran two steps forward and took a look at her sister's state. After a while, she cast her suspicious eyes on Xiaolan again.

   "Where did I meet you?" the woman asked.

   Xiaolan stiffened her back, "I know Ling."

   "I remember!" The woman yelled, frightening Xiaolan, "What kind of friend are you?! You are the murderous little goddess!"

  What am I? !

"I……"

"It's you! My sister was cursed by you, that's what happened!" The woman was about to rush over to bite Xiaolan, "It's you! How many times have I told her, you are a liar!" Money! She doesn’t believe it, it’s all because of you!..."

  The doctors and nurses surrounded Xu Yiling. Xiaolan was frightened by the aggressive appearance of the middle-aged woman and escaped from the ward. The woman chased after Xiaolan and went out.

   "Auntie, there must be a misunderstanding in this!" Xiao Lan ran to the entrance of the inpatient department building in one breath and shouted at the woman who came out.

  "Misunderstanding? What's the misunderstanding?!" The woman crouched her hips, "Did you curse my sister in a car accident?! You also used her dead husband to fool her! You didn't do this?!"

Although Xiaolan was wronged, she didn't dare to deny it. She didn't dare to fight back when she was beaten by a woman, so she could only run to the front entrance of the hospital.

"It's because of you! My sister still believes in you?! What god?! I think she is a liar! If my sister is not stupid, how can I believe you?! Dare to say that it is our Xiaoling's friend?! Xiaoling, I am cute Xiaoling... was cursed to death by you!"
