Reckless Youth of Delinquency

After a while, Su Wan asked me again: "Brother Hao, have you avenged Ye Zhan? I'm not willing to let him be like this!" Su Wan is a bold, outspoken girl, and she often gets along with others in Chenggao. We had a quarrel, and we always advocated that revenge must be taken, even at any cost. I just said: "The culprit has been taken away by the Public Security Bureau." Su Wan was anxious: "How can we just take him away? At least his legs and arms must be cut off!" It was a very cruel method.

I was a little upset now and was not in the mood to talk to Su Wan anymore, so I gave her a few perfunctory words and went over to say hello to Ye Zhan's parents. Ye Zhan's parents are very talkative and as kind as Ye Zhan. When they learned that I was also a client, they asked me to talk about the specific process. I said that two groups of us had a scuffle on campus, and each of us was injured a lot. Ye Zhan's parents sighed, and then said, "Why do you think this is so hard? If the children don't go to school well, why do they fight all day long?" After hearing this, I felt even more guilty.

Seeing Yang Mengying dead and Ye Zhan seriously injured made me extremely confused about my previous behavior.

Should I mess around? What's the way out? What is the life I desire?

After talking about the conversation, Ye Zhan's parents called Su Wan and others over again and said, "I know you are all Ye Zhan's good friends, and thank you for staying with him for so long, but it's getting late now, so you all should go back and rest." Come on, we have class tomorrow."

No one wanted to leave, but Ye Zhan's parents insisted on letting everyone go. Only I said: "Uncle and aunt, I won't go to class. Our school has been damaged and we won't be able to hold classes for a while. Just let me stay with Ye Zhan, I am his best friend." Su Wan and others also said: "Brother Hao is Ye Zhan's best friend, let him stay, so that he can help you run errands and so on."

Ye Zhan's parents couldn't resist, so they had no choice but to agree. After Su Wan and the others left, I stayed with Ye Zhan's parents. Ye Zhan was like this, and it was very likely that he would never wake up. The two adults felt uncomfortable, and their eyes were red as they sat there. I didn't know how to comfort them, so I had to sit silly with them. Seeing them sad makes me sad too.

This night, I almost didn't sleep. The ICU is on the top floor of the hospital. There are very few people hanging around here, but it is an absolutely quiet place. Twice in the middle of the night, the nurse came out to ask for food, but only a small amount, saying that the patient should not accept too much food now and could only eat small meals frequently. Ye Zhan's parents filled half a bowl of soy milk and asked the nurse to take it in.

Every time the nurse went in or out, Ye Zhan's parents would ask her if Ye Zhan was awake. The nurse always shook her head, which made them particularly disappointed, and kept sighing and wiping tears. The next day, Xiaochun and a group of his friends came and gathered around Ye Zhan's parents asking questions. I dragged Xiaochun over and asked, "How is Yang Mengying doing over there?" Xiaochun said, "Brother Yu has helped Yang's mother take Yang Mengying's body back to her hometown. Because Yang's mother gave birth to Yang Mengying when she was young, she was almost the same as the one at home. The relationship is broken. Brother Yu and the others still have to help with the funeral arrangements, setting up the mourning hall, digging the cemetery, etc. They have to do it all by themselves. I am afraid that I will be too busy these days, so let us come and see Ye Zhan .”

I felt very sad and said, "Do you need me to go over and help?"

Xiaochun shook his head and said, "Brother Yu said he wouldn't let you come. Mother Yang is emotionally unstable right now and faints from crying every now and then. Seeing you, I'm afraid she will be even worse. Alas, Mother Yang is also true, this kind of thing should be done If you blame the person who shot the gun, how can you blame Brother Hao?"

I felt a pain in my heart and said, "It's nothing. I should be blamed in the first place." Then he added, "Even if I'm not allowed to go now, I have to go and have a look on the day of the burial, right?" Xiaochun thought for a while and said, "I don't know yet. When the time comes, Let’s talk about it, wait for Brother Yu to call you.”

I have no choice but to do this. When Xiaochun and the others left, there were only three of us left in the corridor. When it was time to eat, I went outside to buy some, and the three of us stayed up like this. At four o'clock in the afternoon, I was able to visit Ye Zhan. We put on the disposable protective clothing issued by the hospital, wrapped our bodies tightly, and then entered the ward to see Ye Zhan.

Ye Zhan lay motionless on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, and there was no trace of blood on his pale face. Mother Ye called Ye Zhan tremblingly, but Ye Zhan didn't respond at all. It seemed that he couldn't hear us at all. Thinking that Ye Zhan might always be like this, the two adults couldn't help but shed tears, and I cried too. Since I came to Beiyuan to study, this is my best best friend. No, Ye Zhan has been my best friend since I was born.

After a while, visiting hours came and the nurse kicked us out. She has been doing this for a long time, and her expression is numb, just like the doctor and the police last night. No matter which industry you have been working in for a long time, you will become numb to things in related industries.

We continued to watch in the corridor. As the days passed, we kept making liquid food for Ye Zhan and asking the nurse to go in and feed him. Then he went in to visit on time at four o'clock every afternoon, but Ye Zhan still didn't wake up for a long time. We asked the doctor what was going on, and the doctor said there was nothing we could do. It also depends on the patient's physical condition. Some people can wake up quickly, while others need some time. Anyway, I just said some specious nonsense, and finally said: "Why are you so anxious? It has only been a few days?"

It was okay not to say this, but after saying this, Father Ye became even more anxious: "Half the time has passed!"

The doctor said: "Just wait. Chatting with him more and talking with him every day at four o'clock in the afternoon will also help his recovery. Tell him more stories from the past, stories that are more impressive and stimulating. His cranial nerves.”

Father Ye said anxiously: "Why didn't you tell me about this method earlier?" The doctor spread his hands and said: "Because this method has almost no effect. Anyway, I have never seen anyone wake up like this. But there is it on TV. I watch TV I learned it. You are anxious anyway, so you might as well try this method." Ye Zhan's parents shook their heads and sighed, and I was speechless about this doctor.

Regardless of whether it works or not, we still have to try it. Every day at four o'clock in the afternoon when we went in to visit, we would take turns, each holding Ye Zhan's hand and talking. Ye Zhan’s parents told Ye Zhan stories about his childhood and asked him if he still remembers the time when he was in the third grade of elementary school. There was a girl in his class who insisted on marrying him. In the end, they all came to the house and wanted to be with him. Sleep on a bed. And I told the story of when I first met Ye Zhan, how we dealt with Zou Yang and Li Jie together, and later got into trouble with Hong Li, etc.

But it's no use, absolutely no use. As the doctor said, these methods are only effective on TV. It is almost impossible for such a miracle to happen in real life. It still depends on the patient's own physical fitness and will to survive. Although we feel it is useless, we still have to persevere to the end, never give up until the last moment, and still tell stories to Ye Zhan every afternoon. When we were not in the intensive care unit, the three of us sat in the corridor and discussed what to say to Ye Zhan. We thought about what we were going to say first and then talked about it when we entered.

Two more days have passed like this, and there is still no effect at all. Ye Zhan's parents are getting more and more anxious. The seven days are getting closer and closer. If Ye Zhan really can't wake up, he will spend his whole life in bed, and we will never see this sunny and kind boy again. When I think of this, my heart is like a knife and I am in terrible pain. Ye Zhan's parents were even more so, almost to the point of crying every day. Ye Zhan's father, a masculine and determined man, lost a lot of weight in five days, and his eye sockets were sunken deeply. In the past five days, the three of us rarely slept. We basically just leaned against the wall and stared.

In the past few days, people naturally kept coming. Su Wan and the others came every day, asking what was going on, but every time they came back disappointed. Xia Xue and Tao Zi came once, but they also sighed and shed tears and could only talk to me. But I didn’t want to say a word at all. Yang Mengying was dead, Ye Zhan was in a severe coma, and I basically lost the desire to speak. Except when I was at Ye Zhan's bedside, when I told him our story, I basically didn't speak at other times. In the past few days, I have made a decision that I will never mess around again, never fight again, and never associate with the people I used to... anymore.

Because I'm a jerk. When I was in Chenggao, I saw Shi Dong stabbing an old dog to death with my own eyes, and Shi Dong was imprisoned; when I was in Beiqi, I watched Yang Mengying die in front of me, and Ye Zhan is now seriously injured and unconscious. Doesn't all this have anything to do with me? Without me, why would they be like this? Xia Xue said before that I am like Conan, and there will be trouble wherever I go. Although it was a joke, slowly I discovered that it seemed to be true.

So do I still have to hang out? Do you have to kill all your friends to be satisfied? It doesn't matter if one person is unlucky, he was bullied for three years in junior high school; when he came to high school, he didn't want to be bullied anymore, but as a result, more people were unlucky together!

What a bastard. I leaned against the wall, crying. There really was no one worse, more disgusting than me. It was me who caused everyone to be like this, it was me! Extreme shame and guilt filled my heart, and painful thoughts kept swirling in my mind.

But there is something strange. Five days have passed and everything seems to be calm in Beiyuan City. Logically speaking, it shouldn't have happened. There was such a big melee, and a student died, but neither the TV station nor the newspapers reported it. But this wasn't something I should consider, so I didn't ask or worry about it. Anyway, it doesn't matter to me now whether I go to school or not. How could the school still want me after smashing Beiyuan No. 7 Middle School to pieces? Maybe I will have to face a huge compensation.
