Chapter 7
It is impossible, the next document, the next document again, her hands have already begun to sweat, the screams persist, her own frantic screams echoing in her mind, lingering for a long time
She quietly said, "I have already forgotten, how can one determine whether they are happy or not"
It turns out ... ...
You ... ... '' The assistant's anger surged, `` Ji An, after so many years of friendship, you don't trust me? We are all doing this for your own good. If I hadn't come, what if you were to die at home one day ... ... ''
She screamed as if she had gone mad, struggling desperately, and pushed him away forcefully
He hurriedly supported her shoulder: "Jing Shi, Jing Shi!"
He paused for a moment and said softly, "Jing Shi, you asked me so many questions this afternoon, and I would like to ask you one as well. Will you answer me seriously?"
He paused for a moment on the sofa before putting down the syringe and carrying her back to the room. Then he returned to the living room and silently lit a cigarette
He cried
Further along in the document ... . ... As she continued, she could no longer bear to read and could only skip through it line by line
He turned around and saw her face, hurriedly ran over, tucked her two exposed arms back under the quilt, and then lay down on the bed as well
She stood up and forcefully pushed him to the ground, completely unprepared—there was a sharp sound of friction, and only then did she see that in front of the sofa, there was a glass coffee table. His watch harshly scraped against the edge of the table, producing a piercing sound
Jing Shi, Xiao Jing... He walked over and squatted in front of her, "Xiao Jing, don't be afraid, listen to me... listen to me, don't cry, okay..." He buried his head in her lap
He pulled a syringe out of his jacket pocket, his hands trembling violently. With half of his body, he pressed her down onto the sofa. She fought back with punches and kicks, biting down on his shoulder—blood soon soaked through his shirt. He gritted his teeth, merely whispering soothing words, restraining her arms, and with trembling hands, he injected the drug into her vein.
She was rendered speechless
She saw herself sitting on the sofa, already able to calmly accept the water he handed over.
She let out a sigh of relief
After smoking two cigarettes, he fumbled for his phone and got up to make a call
He helped her sit on the sofa, then turned around to pour some water: "Jing Shi, you sit for a moment, don't be afraid. Here, have a drink ... ... "
Lying on our sides, we looked at each other's faces. Her eyes sparkled: "It's only been one day since we started dating, and I've already surrendered. Isn't that foolish?"
He gasped in pain, his gaze wandering until it found her in the corner, trembling and holding her head. He breathed out, "Xiao Liu, you and the library staff should keep a close eye on her... don't let her run away."
After watching more than forty videos, the bandage on her head has been removed, revealing a large bald patch, resembling a terrifying dove.
He was silent for a moment and said softly, "I said I have a way, so I must give it a try. The people locked up in the sanatorium are all those with mental disorders, schizophrenia, and lunatics. Jing Shi is not a lunatic; she simply has a problem with her memory"
Do not forget that Xiao Jing has not resigned yet. You have left the research institute, but she is still a member of the laboratory. The institute has an obligation to assist you, and moreover, your approach is fundamentally not a solution
"This is indeed a problem of memory," the assistant scoffed. "But can you solve this issue? The director has been working for nearly sixty years and has never encountered such a case. We have also communicated with global institutions; there are fewer than one hundred cases worldwide, and even the top doctors are at a loss!" Taking a deep drag from his cigarette, his eyes reddened. "How the hell did you two end up facing such a misfortune?"
He even chuckled softly twice, took out a cigarette, and lit it up
Is that ... ... her
Chaotic footsteps approached as Chen Jianan supported a woman, stumbling and swaying as they made their way over
The computer has begun to automatically play the next file, which features an almost identical plot: screaming, kicking, hitting, an inability to communicate, and ultimately, the only solution is to administer a sedative
The DV screen shook violently; she was immensely strong, forcefully pushing him onto the coffee table. The table was shoved aside by him, and his back struck heavily against the corner of the table, causing his face to turn pale as paper in an instant due to the pain
Her face suddenly contorted, and she screamed hysterically all of a sudden, throwing the glass of water he had handed her. Crash—glass shattered everywhere.
A glass trophy on the table ... Yes, that trophy, her award for best research achievement, fell to the ground and shattered into pieces
He realized he had misspoken and suddenly stopped, "I am sorry"
He then walked over, stepping on a ground covered with shards of glass without changing his expression, and turned off the DV
She had already run out two or three steps, her voice hoarse from shouting, her feet covered in blood. He picked her up and carried her back to the sofa, where she kicked and hit him in his arms, her eyes bloodshot, like a wild beast
He struggled to stand up, and she repeated the same method, her eyes filled with bloodshot veins: "Who are you, who exactly are you?"
A woman has layers of gauze wrapped around her head, her complexion is pale, and her gaze is vacant
A man opened the door, shocked at everything in the room, hurriedly ran in, helped him up from the ground, and on his back was a patch of deep red...
Before long, she collapsed.
He gently tousled her hair and suddenly laughed with a sense of relief
His expression changed suddenly, and he hurriedly struggled to get up: "Jing Shi, don't run around, you must not step on the glass!"
She sat on the sofa, holding the woven cushion in her arms, her eyes sparkling with life, yet she curled up into a ball, fearfully watching Chen Jianan approach.
Someone broke in through the door
... ...
He turned to look at his assistant, his voice light and indifferent: "Your solution is simply to provide a key to my house?"
Little Liu ... ... is ... ... not very well. '' He slightly lowered his eyes, `` I am wondering if I can switch to another medication, using tranquilizers all the time has too many side effects, continuing like this is not a solution ... ... ''
He opened the document, which was filled with numerous files, loading down to a very deep bottom. He clicked on the first one
Tears welled up in her eyes as she murmured, "Where is this place, why can't I remember..."
This was the first time she saw him smoking. A small patch on his shoulder was soaked with blood, and his hand was trembling unconsciously. The glow of the cigarette flickered, and his profile, shrouded in immense pain, appeared somewhat despondent
It is a video recorded by D V. The scene features a light gray genuine leather sofa, woven cushions, and light blue curtains. ... This is ... . ... His home, their home
Her hair has gradually grown back, filling in that gap, and her features are no longer fierce
However, she suddenly changed color in the image, and she nervously murmured, "Who are you?"
His eyes were somewhat moist, and he suddenly sat up and moved his laptop closer: "Let me show you... the gifts from these days"
"Who are you...?" she asked hesitantly, continually shrinking back, her eyes filled with tears
Professor! The young man's brows were furrowed together, "This won't do... We all feel it won't do. Sending him to a sanatorium or a research institute, you can't handle this alone!"
She watched him get dressed, buttoning his shirt, and then he stood up to water the plants in the room first
His footsteps came to a halt, and he stood rigidly with his back to the camera: "Jing Shi, Jing Shi..."
She nodded hurriedly. He said, "Some say that a fish's memory lasts only seven seconds. If... if you were a fish, would you feel happy?"
In front of the sofa, the coffee table has been replaced by a round-cornered wooden low table, and the glass items have been removed. He has planted various small plants, which are sprouting branches and leaves in every corner of the scene
He blinked his eyes, which were dry and rough, and after a long while, he finally replied: "Thank you, thank you all, but I would like to give it a try"
A look of despair enveloped him: "Of course I trust you. But I have already resigned."
