Chapter 985 The Master Has Never Failed in Fortune Telling
I have an impression of the 'Binjie' mentioned by Xiao Zhengning. He is Xiao Shiqiu's uncle Qiu Binjie, the director of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security.
I've met him before, and he seemed like a very amiable middle-aged man.
Qiu Binjie arrived faster than expected.
He was wearing casual clothes, but he looked different from the previous time. This time, he exuded a majesty due to his anger, and his aura was obviously much stronger.
Without any extra greetings, he walked straight to the door of the emergency room. His eyes swept over each of us, finally landing on me. He asked in a deep voice, "Is Xiaoqiu still in there?"
I choked up and nodded, "Yes, uncle."
Qiu Binjie nodded, his eyes as sharp as if filled with knives: "Daughter-in-law Xiaoqiu, don't worry, my nephew Qiu Binjie will not suffer this hardship in vain!
I had the car towed back to the bureau. I've already told the technical department to check it inch by inch!
If I find out which bastard did it, no matter who he is, I will dig three feet into the ground to find him!"
His voice was not loud, but it carried a ferociousness that was heart-pounding.
After he finished speaking, his tone slowed down a bit, but his eyes were still sharp: "Wife Xiaoqiu, think about it carefully again, from the time you left home until the accident, did you encounter anyone who seemed strange along the way?
Or did something special happen? Don’t miss any details.”
I forced myself to calm down and tried to search through my chaotic memories.
The crowds in the funeral home were filled with suppressed sorrow, while the temples were filled with the lingering sounds of incense and chanting...
I really didn't notice other people. Which good person would be so vigilant when going out?
“No,” I shook my head, feeling a bit annoyed, “I really didn’t notice anyone or anything in particular.
Besides going through the formalities at the funeral home, I burned incense at the temple, and then… then something happened. There weren't many cars on the road, and I didn't come into contact with anyone.
"Is there anyone suspicious in the parking lot?"
I thought about it and said, "There were so many people at the funeral home that I didn't notice it, but there were fewer people at the temple. There were two cars when we went there, and one more when we came out.
By the way, when we left, that car seemed to be preparing to leave as well.”
Qiu Binjie nodded thoughtfully: "Funeral home, temple..." He pondered for a moment, "I know, you just wait here for news about Xiaoqiu, and leave the rest to me.
As soon as the technical team has any results, they will notify me immediately."
He cast his gaze towards the door of the emergency room again and said slowly, "Xiaoqiu is a lucky child. She will be fine this time."
I don't know if he was talking to himself or to comfort us.
Time has never felt so long and unbearable.
Every second is torture.
The pale light in the corridor made me dizzy. I stubbornly stood at the door of the emergency room, my eyes fixed on the heavy iron door.
My mother and Xiao Shiru took turns urging me to eat something and find a place to rest, but I turned a deaf ear to them.
Xiao Zhengning paced silently, occasionally going to a deserted place in the corridor to smoke a cigarette.
After Qiu Binjie finished making a few phone calls, he leaned against the wall, frowning, and occasionally whispered a few words to Xiao's father.
It was getting dark. In the corridor, except for my mother who left halfway, everyone else was waiting silently at the door.
The red light finally went out as everyone waited anxiously.
The door was pushed open, and Su Yi was the first to walk out. He hadn't taken off his surgical gown yet, and beads of sweat were on his forehead. His face was pale from overexertion, and even his steps were a little unsteady.
But when he took off his mask and looked at us with his tired eyes, there was a sense of relief, almost exhaustion.
"Sister-in-law!" Su Yi's voice was hoarse, but with a hint of smile, "Brother Qiu's life is saved. He has been sent directly to the ICU ward on the top floor."
He raised his hand and wiped his face. "I knew this guy had a tough life! The master said he could live to be ninety-nine, which means the King of Hell won't take him away even one day earlier! That master has never failed in his fortune-telling!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. I felt like a drowning man who had finally grabbed a piece of driftwood. My voice was shaking violently. "Is he... really okay?"
"Yes, we've made it through the gates of hell." Su Yi nodded confidently, "The bleeding from the craniocerebral injury has been controlled, the fractures have been reset and fixed, and the internal bleeding has also stopped.
But he was injured too badly and lost too much blood, so he'll have to rely on himself to slowly recover. But Brother Qiu has a good physical foundation, so he'll definitely be fine!"
"When will Xiaoqiu wake up?" Xiao Zhengning asked.
"Uncle Xiao, this... is hard to say. Give him some time. It may be tomorrow, or it may be a few days later. I can't say for sure.
However, his injuries were so serious that his heartbeat stopped several times during the operation.
If the master hadn't said he could live to be ninety-nine, I would have almost lost the confidence to continue saving him."
Su Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead, with a hint of fear in his tone. Now he was still thankful that he had persisted at that time.
"There's nothing you can do now. Just wait patiently for him to wake up and then slowly recover."
Su Yi looked at me and said seriously, "Sister-in-law, you should go home and rest first. The ICU has the most professional nurses guarding it 24 hours a day. You can't help here, so don't burn yourself out."
"No!" I immediately shook my head, my attitude very firm. "I'm not leaving! I'm going to wait here for him to wake up. He'll be worried if he wakes up and can't see me."
How could the apartment be considered a home without him?
Going back would only make me think about all sorts of things.
Staying here, even if there is a wall between us, I feel more at ease being closer to him.
My mother advised me, "Mengmeng, the ICU has visiting regulations. You can only go in to take a look at the patient at fixed times every day. It's useless for you to wait outside. Listen to Doctor Su and go back first..."
Su Yi waved his hand and said, "Sister-in-law, if you want to stay, then stay. I have a place to stay here."
A hint of pride appeared on his face. "Doctor Lin, our ICU on the top floor of Leiden is different from other hospitals. I'll take you up there to have a look."
He motioned for us to follow him, then got into an elevator at the end of the corridor and pressed the button for the top floor.
The elevator goes directly to the top floor. After the door opens, the style of the corridor has completely changed. It is so luxurious that it doesn't look like a hospital at all. From the floor to the ceiling, the material design is more than one level higher.
Su Yi pushed open a door and found an independent ward inside. It might not be quite right to call it a ward because it was nothing like an ordinary ward.
There is a small dining bar at the entrance of the room, equipped with a refrigerator and a water dispenser.
Facing you is a large sofa, and on the other side is a 1.5-meter single bed. The bathroom with separate dry and wet areas even has a bathtub, a washing machine and a dryer.
This is basically a high-end bachelor apartment!
Where is the ward we agreed on?
