Chapter 387 Treatment
At four o'clock in the morning of that day, under Wu Yongcheng's arrangement, Lu Xiaoshuang was connected to a ventilator and carried into an ambulance.
Zhou Yi always stayed by her side, never leaving her side.
Zhou Yi, sitting in the ambulance, looked out through the window and saw Wu Yongcheng, smoking a cigarette, watching the ambulance go away.
As the ambulance drove onto the highway, the outline of the city slowly emerged in the dawn at the end of the sky.
It was so similar to what he saw on the day he was reborn.
The doctor on board checked the equipment and then said to Zhou Yi, "The patient's vital signs are currently stable. Officer Zhou, you should take a nap. It will take several hours to reach the provincial capital."
"It's okay, I'm not sleepy." Zhou Yi looked at Lu Xiaoshuang in front of him and smiled.
The taillights of the ambulance gradually disappeared on the highway.
…
As the dawn slowly rises in the sky, a new day begins.
Although there have been a lot more police officers on the roads since yesterday, the situation seems to be far less serious than the last time the city was closed, so many people are no longer surprised.
Those who should go to work go to work, and those who should go to school go to school. After all, compared with the previous life, the people of Hongcheng have seen the world in this life.
In the Hongda girls' dormitory, Mo Youyou, who hadn't slept well the night before, got up with dark circles under her eyes.
She first looked at the lower bunk, then looked at the upper bunk diagonally opposite. The quilts on the two beds were still the same as before, with no signs of having been moved.
Someone noticed something was wrong and asked, "Why haven't Lu Xiaoshuang and Xu Liu returned yet? Are they planning to skip class?"
Mo Youyou shook her head pretending to be calm. Zhou Yi had told her yesterday to just pretend nothing had happened.
But she was extremely panicked in her heart and tossed and turned in bed like a pancake all night.
At the Ergang dormitory building, Zhou Jianguo walked in and everyone who saw him greeted him warmly, calling him "Master Zhou" non-stop.
Huang Xiaomao delivered goods to the south before, and the journey was smooth. After the tractor factory tried the samples, they were quite satisfied with the quality of Ergang's products.
Thanks to Zhou Jianye's efforts, the previous procurement commitment was readily fulfilled.
Later, Zhou Jianguo did as his son said and asked Zhou Jianye to come forward and negotiate directly with the factory about signing the contract. Although there were some twists and turns in the process, even Zhou Jianguo, an honest man, could see that the old factory director obviously had other intentions.
But fortunately, my brother was born to be a businessman and he solved all the problems one by one.
Of course, in this process, Kong Laosan, who wandered around the factory leader's office building for three days with a rope around his waist, made an indelible contribution.
After I get the compensation money, I will treat Kong Lao San to a drink.
Although this incident solved the immediate problems of a small number of people, it was indeed as his son said, Ergang would not recover. Although the list of the next batch of laid-off workers was announced late, it was still announced.
And it's not just No. 2 Steel, No. 1 Steel is also in a panic, with news of layoffs spreading like wildfire.
After all, one steel is not much better than two steels.
Whether it is the Second Steel or the First Steel, some people have tried to replicate Zhou Jianguo's behavior.
The factory leaders were quite open-minded. After all, there was a precedent and the warehouse was indeed full of steel coils.
But the problem is that no one else has a brother like Zhou Jianye.
In the words of Zhou Jianguo and Zhang Qiuxia, this matter was all the credit of their brother Zhou Jianye. Although the idea was proposed by Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi's profession was special and they did not want to involve their son and give people a chance to criticize him.
This also made those who once looked down on the "unemployed" youngest son of the Zhou family start to change their tune and praise Zhou Jianye for his promising future, saying that he had been smart since he was a child.
Even the originally stubborn old man changed his attitude towards his youngest son. He was obviously much prouder when he mentioned his youngest son, second only to when others mentioned his grandson Zhou Yi.
Zhou Jianguo knocked on his door, but there was no response.
So I used the key to open the door, but the room was still the same, as if no one had been back.
"Hey, why did you take so long on this business trip? You didn't even call home." Although Zhou Jianguo complained, his hands were busy and he started cleaning.
In the Lu family's slum, in the small and simple attic, a ray of sunlight shone in from the window.
In the beam of light, dust particles danced, reflecting a faint light.
Outside the window, a tenacious little grass swayed in the breeze.
The shadow of the grass is reflected on the desk in the attic through the sunlight.
…
May 3rd, 4 p.m.
Xie Guoqiang convened the second case analysis meeting for the "April 30th Major Dismemberment Case".
As usual, all the main case handlers attended, except Zhou Yi who was still in the provincial capital.
"Sister Qiao, are Zhou Yi and Xiaoshuang doing okay?" Chen Yan asked on the way to the meeting room.
Qiao Jiali nodded. "I called Zhou Yi yesterday. Everything is normal now. The provincial hospital has also arranged a treatment plan. I heard Zhou Yi say that if nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to wake up in two days."
Chen Yan nodded with relief, but at the same time he felt a little strange, because this case meeting was held suddenly, they had not been notified beforehand, and Wu Yongcheng did not let them prepare.
"By the way, why don't I see my master?"
"He might be in the conference room already. I saw him go upstairs before." The upstairs that Qiao Jiali was referring to was, of course, the floor where the director's office was.
Jiang Biao was walking at the back, yawning constantly and looking sleepy.
He has been running around outside almost all the time these days. Although Lu Xiaoshuang has been found, Xu Liu's whereabouts are still unknown. Before confirming that the deceased is Xu Liu, he has to find both the body parts and the person.
So he has been sleepless these past few days, and when he can't bear it anymore, he takes a nap in the car. Even his strong body feels that he can't bear it.
He now smells like a jar of sour wine.
The three of them walked into the conference room and saw Wu Yongcheng sitting next to Xie Guoqiang at a glance. Their hearts suddenly skipped a beat.
Because Captain Wu's face looked obviously not very good.
Xie Guoqiang, who was standing aside, had a calm expression on his face, showing no emotion at all.
Jiang Biao was the most senior person in the Third Brigade, second only to Wu Yongcheng. He knew that Director Xie appeared to be an approachable leader on the surface, and sometimes he would joke with his subordinates, appearing to be unconventional.
But in fact, he had heard a long time ago that Director Xie was a very strict pragmatist before he became the director, and everyone who worked under him complained bitterly.
Ni Jianrong on the side seemed much more relaxed than the other two.
After all the participants arrived, Xie Guoqiang looked around and said calmly, "Everyone is here, right?"
Wu Yongcheng nodded: "All ready."
"Everyone, let me make an announcement first."
Everyone's ears pricked up.
Xie Guoqiang said in a deep voice, "The identity of the deceased in the April 30th major dismemberment case has been confirmed."
Most people had a hint of surprise in their eyes. In the past few days, all departments have been conducting full investigations, but the information is relatively scattered and has not been comprehensively summarized.
Even though the information Chen Yan and the others had learned was scattered, they were a little surprised about the confirmation of the deceased's identity.
Due to the particularity of this case, a lot of important information is now given to Xie Guoqiang first, and then arranged and dispatched by the director himself.
This was a clear instruction issued by Xie Guoqiang, which shows how much he values this case.
Everyone was waiting for Xie Guoqiang to reveal the name of the deceased.
Unexpectedly, Xie Guoqiang suddenly changed the subject and said, "Also... the suspect in this case has also been identified."
Next, when Xie Guoqiang revealed the identity of the deceased, everyone in the Third Brigade felt that it was basically expected.
But when he said the suspect's name, almost everyone was stunned.
Jiang Biao, Qiao Jiali, Chen Yan and Xu Nian all turned their eyes to Wu Yongcheng.
Wu Yongcheng's face turned ashen.
…
A ward of the Department of Neurology in the First Central Hospital of the Provincial Capital.
Zhou Yi pulled the curtain and walked out of the ward.
He didn't walk far, but just stood at the door of the ward and stretched his body.
Inside, the nurse was wiping Lu Xiaoshuang's body and massaging her muscles.
Lu Xiaoshuang was admitted to the hospital in a coma. According to the doctor's instructions, she needed to be turned over every two hours to prevent bedsores and nerve compression necrosis.
This is not difficult. After the nurse teaches Zhou Yi, he just needs to do it.
The nurse found it a bit strenuous, but for Zhou Yi, Lu Xiaoshuang's weight was no problem at all.
The nurse just said that the patient also needed to be wiped with hot water and massaged to promote blood circulation and prevent muscle atrophy.
This made Zhou Yi a little embarrassed. He just needed to turn over and be careful, but close contact care behaviors such as wiping the body and massaging were really inappropriate.
Finally, after asking the nurse, I paid for a nurse to help.
Whenever this happened, Zhou Yi would walk out of the ward to avoid it.
The aunt smiled and said to the patient next to her: "You can tell she's not married yet and is shy."
According to the doctor's treatment plan here, it is estimated that after three hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatments, the carbon monoxide concentration in the patient's blood will drop and he will be able to wake up.
But to fully recover, further treatment is needed. As to whether there will be any sequelae, it depends on the examination results after waking up.
In any case, Lu Xiaoshuang's condition is developing in a good direction.
And there is a very crucial point. Before sending her to the provincial capital in the early morning of the same day, Wu Yongcheng also arranged for professionals to conduct an injury assessment on Lu Xiaoshuang. Because regardless of whether the follow-up of Lu Xiaoshuang's disappearance was handled together with the dismemberment case, it involved a criminal case and the injury assessment must be recorded.
The main purpose of injury assessment is to confirm whether the person has suffered violence, drugging, or sexual assault.
There were a lot of abrasions on Lu Xiaoshuang's body surface, and the identification results showed that they were superficial abrasions caused by non-violence, indicating that she had not been subjected to violence or coercion.
Then she might have been drugged, but unfortunately Lu Xiaoshuang inhaled a large amount of methane and carbon monoxide, which made it impossible to detect the inhalation of drugs such as ether. We can only wait for Lu Xiaoshuang to tell us after she wakes up.
Finally, one point that is very important to everyone is that Lu Xiaoshuang's hymen is intact and there are no signs of violent injury to her sexual organs, so it was determined that there was no possibility of sexual assault.
His condition has also improved in the past two days. The intensity of the care itself is nothing to him. The main thing is that his originally tense mood has been relaxed. No matter what, as long as the person is alive, it is fine.
As for the progress of the dismemberment case, he did not ask too much.
Wu Yongcheng was right about one thing. He was not yet the captain of the Third Brigade, so he could not ask everything he wanted to ask.
He knew that Wu Yongcheng didn't care, but that didn't mean others didn't care either.
And he believed that if anything happened, Wu Yongcheng would definitely call him.
"Okay, come in, young man." The aunt shouted in the ward.
"Coming." Zhou Yi replied.
