C12 Hunchbacked shadow tracing
This was also impossible. Otherwise, why would the doctor not ask Chen Lu to go out for a walk?
However, when I looked back, I felt that something was wrong, because at this moment, Chen Lu had already fallen deeply asleep while leaning against the wall.
I turned my head to look at Dr. Liu nervously. He smiled coyly and said, "Your friend is fine. The medicine he just took could help him sleep."
I remembered that when I checked Chen Lu's EEG, the nurse had given him a beige pill in advance, saying that if he took it, it would make it easier to capture the abnormal fluctuations in his EEG and detect the potential for hallucinations while he was awake.
I walked over to Chen Lu and gently shifted his body so that he could lie comfortably on the bed of the medical board and have a good rest.
After taking care of Chen Lu, I saw that there was something strange about the doctor's expression, and I became even more worried about Chen Lu.
I nervously asked, "Dr. Liu, what kind of illness did my friend have? Is it serious? "
"Your friend is indeed very sick …" Doctor Liu deliberately kept his mouth shut, stopping halfway through his words. There was an indescribably strange expression on his face.
"How heavy is it?" I asked impatiently, as Tadwell dropped his boring medical journal on the shelf and stared at the doctor in annoyance.
But the doctor continued to stare at me with an odd expression and to shake his head at Chen Lu, who was lying on the bunk, smiling mischievously.
Just as I was thinking, if this Dr. Liu didn't say something, I would go over and blow up his gold-rimmed glasses, and the doctor would answer with an unexpected answer.
Dr. Liu adjusted the uncomfortable work cap on his head and snapped at Tadwei and me, "I'm warning you, don't ever let him take drugs again!"
"Drug use?" I was stunned. "How is that possible?" Tsing Wei looked at me, his face also full of question marks. The doctor, however, was impatient with my words. He looked at me blankly, as if he had expected me to quibble with him.
I really wanted to go to the doctor and explain that while I was with Ty, he wouldn't have the time or the opportunity to take drugs.
But I also know that the show industry has long been famous for drug abuse, such as the son of Kangxi who liked to visit him privately, the son of Chen Jiayi, the son of Chen Jiayi, and the father of a common disciple of Wu Lin, all of which recently stood on the cusp of drugs.
Therefore, I don't want to argue with Doctor Liu about having a good mouth and ask him how to restore Chen Lu to his normal state.
I looked at Chen Lu, who was sleeping soundly on the bed on the medical board. I sighed for him and said apologetically to the doctor, "Alright. Thank you for keeping this a secret from us. I've thought it through very carefully." Dr. Liu took off his disposable work cap and smiled as if he was pleased with my honesty.
At my words, Tadwei stood up, and I saw that he was trying to protest for Chen Lu, and I didn't understand why I had admitted to taking drugs. But he only got up a little and sat down, obviously wanting to see how I was going to deal with the doctor.
"By the way, can you find out what kind of drug my friend is using?" It occurred to me that if I did find out that Chen Lu had the exact amount of drugs in his body, then I really would look at Chen Lu in a different light.
The doctor smiled proudly again. After some thought, he crumpled one of Chen Lu's test forms and threw it into the trash can, saying, "It should be a mixed drug, because the results of the test show that his blood contains elements similar to LSD traits."
"What's an LSD?" I asked the doctor.
"LSD is diethylamine ergot, a powerful hallucinogen! "You only need 100 micrograms to produce six to eight hours of intense auditory hallucination …" Hearing the doctor mention hallucination, I was instantly enlivened, "To hallucination? That is to say, the knife-scarred man that appeared in my friend's mind was a drug addict hallucination? "
The doctor smiled knowingly and nodded at me.
In a few minutes, Chen Lu moved his body and woke up, but he still kept yawning. I rushed over to check on Chen Lu. His mental state had obviously improved a lot, probably due to the effects of the few needles of medicine that I had just given him.
Seeing that Chen Lu was temporarily fine, I asked Dr. Liu what else he needed to pay attention to. Dr. Liu said that all he had to do was throw away the dirty stuff and stop Chen Lu from touching it again. Between my questions and the doctor's, Chen Lu was confused.
After a cursory farewell to Dr. Liu, the three of us left the Zhou Zhuang People's Hospital.
The sun had just set, and I checked the time on my cell phone. It was half past five in the afternoon.
Tsing Wei drove the car to the door, and I helped Chen Lu into the car, feeling that he had more strength than he had when he came.
On the way back to the hotel from the hospital, I didn't tell Chen Lu about the doctor's findings. I lied about the fact that he had only seen the knife-scarred man in his hallucinations because he was frightened by the cat, and because his brain had been affected by a bacterial infection. I also lied to him that the doctor had mentioned a lot of cases similar to his, and Chen Lu had a dubious look on his face.
The reason why I didn't tell Chen Lu the truth was because I knew Chen Lu very well. I tried not to drink alcohol, let alone take drugs.
However, I was unable to solve all of these strange mysteries.
Tet was probably tired, too, and drove slowly.
When Chen Lu, who was in the first passenger seat, fell asleep again, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure far away under the road outside the window. Moreover, on the figure's shoulder, there was actually a black cat.
"Stop the car!" I yelled at Ty Wei.
When Tet saw my serious expression in the rearview mirror, he realized what I was looking at and quickly parked the Jetta on the uneven shoulder of the road.
Chen Lu was jolted awake by the sudden jolt and asked tiredly, "Why did you stop?" Then he turned his head and wrapped his body tighter around his clothes and closed his eyes in the other direction.
Ignoring Chen Lu, I said to Tet Wei, who was looking back at me, "Who do you think the man in the paddy field looks like?" My finger pointed directly behind me to the right of the shoulder of the road. On one of the ridges, there was a man, a hunchbacked man, walking shakily into the depths of the paddy field.
After looking at it for a bit, he even changed the tone of his voice, "Don't lie to me, is it that old bastard's doing this? Look at his shoulder, isn't that that that darned cat?"
Tet Wei was right. As long as his eyesight wasn't too bad, he would be able to see that the old man had a black cat with a white head on his shoulder. The size of a cat's head was completely out of proportion to his body.
How many black cats with white heads could exist in this world?
Tiewei instantly pulled the buckle on his seat belt to his back, rubbed his hands together and said, "You wait in the car, I'll go greet these two old bastards!" Then he pulled a wrench out of the toolbox, opened the door, and jumped out.
I hastily gave chase, "Ta Wei, come back here!" Ta Wei, who had already trotted out, stopped, "What?"
"Come back and take Chen Lu back to the hotel as soon as possible, so as to not make everyone worry. I'll just follow this old man." I caught up and glared at the wrench in his hand. Tsing Wei, however, didn't like it, so he told me to drive Chen Lu back first and then come back here to pick him up.
With the excuse that my driving skills weren't up to standard, I pushed Tetway toward the Jettas after a few more traffic accidents along the Lake Zhou line.
Tet Wei also really knew that when I was driving, I would nod my head three times and turn the corner to refuel, so I could hang around places with fewer people, and my driver's license was obtained through cheating. If I was allowed to drive, perhaps there would be an accident on the Zhou Lake Line today.
Tsing Wei didn't want me to go alone, and he couldn't leave Chen Lu alone in the car. His hesitant appearance was quite painful, and after sighing and sighing for a while, he finally handed me the wrench in his hand.
"Do you really want to go all out against them? "I just followed them from a distance …" I anxiously replied, seeing that the hunchbacked old man in the middle of the paddy field had already walked deep into the forest, and was about to disappear behind the bank. "Stop nagging, hurry up and send Chen Lu back, then I'll call you to inform you about the situation!"
Tet Wei saw that I was really leaving and looked extremely disappointed. Did this grandson treat tracking the two bastards as a fun thing to do? So it was the right choice for me not to let Tadg go. He was unreliable in his motives.
Moreover, Tsing Wei was too impulsive and impatient. With a wrench in his hand, how could he not use it! The old man and the black cat were too evil. Who knew what kind of situation he would encounter? It was inevitable that he would suffer a loss. And I just want to follow them from a distance, wait for the situation to clear up, call the police or get revenge, and be fully prepared before making a move, it shouldn't be too late, there shouldn't be any danger.
Ignoring Tsing Wei's indignant look, I pulled myself off the shoulder of the road and onto the yellow-green grass, chasing after the old man and the Ghost Cat.
Stepping onto the grass, I looked back and saw that the grandson had actually pulled the car even farther to the side, just a few centimeters away from falling off the shoulder of the road. He stuck his head out and looked at me with interest, and when I waved at him with a dark face, he started the car and drove away with a look of displeasure on his face.
I turned around and walked back to the field. I didn't dare to slow down. I kept my eyes on the old man as he walked away, keeping a vague distance between us.
But unexpectedly, just as I walked out of the large paddy field and entered the willow forest in front of me, I couldn't find the old man and the Ghost Cat.
Fortunately, there was only one durable dirt road in the willow forest. The other places were covered in mud, and there were no footprints on them. I knew that as long as I followed this dirt road, I would definitely be able to catch up.
After chasing them for a few hundred meters, I felt that the environment was a little strange. The ground was also very wet and muddy, but for some reason, the wild flowers in the wet soil were all yellow and dried up. Upon closer inspection, even the leaves of the willow tree seemed to have been completely destroyed, as if all the plants were sick.
The mud on both sides of the dirt road was getting darker and more muddy, and there were even pools of stagnant water, but in this sort of willow forest, which should have been extremely humid, not only were the plants dried and cracked, but my mouth and nose were also extremely dry, and even my lips were split open.
Deeply thirsty, I decided to endure it. Ignoring these strange creatures, I quickened my pace. When I was about to exit the willow forest, I finally saw the hunchbacked figure in the distance.
At this moment, the road in front of me had suddenly become too clear. There were only a few willow trees left, and there was nothing that could cover me. I could only lower my body and let the old man and the black cat disappear in front of me.
I had to be careful. If I was found out, it would be a waste of time.
I was convinced that there must be some secret between the old man and the ghostly cat, and that this secret must be related to the ghost in red from the time when I was pressing down on the bed, and to the ghost in Chen Lu's head, and to what connection he had with the ghostly cat, and with the strange things that had happened to us.
He hurriedly rushed forward, but the old man's figure once again disappeared at the end of the road. At this moment, a cold, fishy wind suddenly blew past me. It was as if rain had rained down on my body.
Soon after, a cloud of white smoke drifted over from the direction where the old man and the cat had disappeared.
The sun had set completely, and under the weak moonlight, the mist was even more conspicuous. It was like dry ice used to create the effects of the fairyland as it pounced towards me. However, under this environment and mood, this place didn't look like a fairyland at all. Instead, it had doubled the eerie and eerie atmosphere.
It was too dark, the fog was too thick, and I couldn't see the road in front of me clearly. I was really afraid that the old man and the black cat would be hiding behind a tree.
I felt the urge to retreat, not wanting to go any further. However, I was even more afraid of returning empty-handed. Losing this opportunity to approach the truth, I could only brace myself and charge into the darkness.
I don't know how long I walked, but I felt the humidity get heavier and heavier, my mouth and nose were no longer dry, and there was a lot of moisture in the cool air. Suddenly, I heard the sound of flowing water and the creak of the swaying logs. I hastily moved forward and sure enough, there was a lake in front of me that seemed to stretch out into the darkness and mist.
Further ahead, on the shore, there was a simple pier made up of wooden planks.
Furthermore, a small boat was tied to the wooden pile on the dock. On the boat, there was a pair of wooden oars that were separated by a great distance. The oars were floating in the water with the boat.
Where the hell is the hunchback and the cat?
I looked carefully into the lake. In the mist, there was a dim yellow light that flickered and dimmed, gradually fading with the ripples of the lake.
There were no forks in the road, so the old man must have left on a boat, obviously heading to the other side of the lake.
