Chapter 1704 1704 Disinfection Potion

"After Sally was diagnosed with chronic leukemia at the age of ten, our family has been in a tense state. In the past few years, it was still in the chronic phase, and everything changed very slowly, but Sally already knew her condition early. I always thought that I couldn't live... Sixteen years old..."

Speaking of this, Jessica's voice choked lightly. Although she quickly covered it up, the uncontrollable trembling still revealed her inner fragility. Sally is sixteen this year.

I always thought that day would never come, but suddenly, without any warning, that possibility suddenly stuck to the skin like a leech, making people shudder. "Before this, Sally had always been very sensible, she never complained, never cried, never lost her temper, she just accepted it calmly. We knew she just didn't want to burden us... "

Jessica's voice paused slightly. Although she didn't say anything, Hugo knew that her daughter's sensibleness made her parents even more sad. They were supposed to take care of their daughter and comfort her, but now her daughter is caring for them. In the face of birth, old age, sickness and death, the insignificance of human power has been magnified countless times.

"Then she heard on the radio about you guys performing in Memphis and life started turning upside down, especially after Amoeba met you, I don't know what she talked to you, that was my first The first time I heard your name." Jessica pointed to Hugo, Amoeba Music, the name evoked the distant memory of Glory to Death, "But after that, for the first time, she had what she wanted to do. , she wanted to try something different for the first time, she had new goals for the first time..."

A gratified smile appeared on Jessica's face. Compared with her "mature and sensible" daughter, she hoped that her only thirteen-year-old daughter would become cheerful and lively, and she even hoped that her daughter would lose her temper. , to vent the inner dissatisfaction. Because Sally is just a child who hasn't grown up, she shouldn't be carrying so much weight.

After that, things became familiar. "Until the end of last year, Sally's condition suddenly worsened. The doctor said that she had a disease and entered an accelerated period... After attending the premiere of 'Death Row', Sally has been in the hospital." Jessica is putting together the missing pieces of the puzzle, linking the cause and effect of everything. "Just after the Battle of the Century in September, Sally's condition again It got worse and entered the blast phase, and for a week, she couldn't get up from the hospital bed..."

Jessica's voice fell silent, and she still couldn't elaborate on those memories, "Before the tour started, Sally told me and her father that she had to go on this tour, it was her life. The first dream to really chase, and maybe the last."

Jessica's first reaction was strong disapproval. She couldn't accept the fact that her daughter's life was running out, and Sally's biggest wish was to complete the tour with a rock band, and she was still running all the way. Bumpy, dusty all the way. She couldn't accept it, she thought it was ridiculous. She even started hysterical, fighting with Robin, fighting with Sally, fighting with the doctor, fighting with the nurse, refusing help from the rest of the family, just trying to resist everything in the world.

But in the end, Jessica was persuaded by Sally. Maybe, this is the last journey of Sally's life, maybe not; but as Sally's mother, she can at least be sure that Sally can really do whatever she wants, even if it's just one time, she hopes that Sally's heart There is no regret, and there is no regret - even if she knows it is impossible, she can at least try to see it.

Jessica's story is over, but those simple and simple words can't describe the thrilling life in life. Many times, the death that I once thought was extremely far away was actually very close to me. Hugo once witnessed Zhang Xiaoye's death, experienced Pedro's fear of dying, and now he feels the scythe of death hanging high on Sally's head.

Pedro felt that the eyes of all the bands were projected on him, but at this time he had no intention to respond, because the turbulence in his heart almost swallowed him.

He used to be so close to the god of death, and the face-to-face breath was so clear that he could even feel the icy blade slowly slash his throat. Fortunately, he finally escaped from the god of death. Only, recently on tour, poison. The lure of the product. Confusion struck again, even more ferocious than ever before. This time, everyone, including Hugo, did not persuade him, but just let him make his own choices, and his reason could no longer resist.

But now, he found that Sally was so tenacious that she wanted to continue living, because she still had many dreams to come true, her life had just begun, she was even a child... But he was so stupid, he took the initiative to embrace Death - the embrace that once frightened him, he was about to throw it into his arms again.

Pedro felt so small as never before.

"Jessica, we... um, can we go in and see Sally?" Neil spoke for the first time, but his voice was filled with undisguised exhaustion and heaviness.

Jessica showed an apologetic expression, "Sorry, the hospital has regulations, only immediate family members can enter. Because Sally is just out of the dangerous period..."

Before she could finish speaking, Neil waved his hand, "It's alright, it's all about Sally, we're just here to see her, and we can't help. Trust me, I know Sally. Although it has not been as long as you, I know that she is a little girl who will never give up."

Jessica showed a shallow smile, and her eyes couldn't help but feel warm. She turned her head in embarrassment and wiped the corners of her eyes. When I turned around, I saw the intensive care unit not far away. At this time, it was still silent there, and the large white area made the surrounding quiet and a little infiltrating.

Jessica bit her lip slightly, as if she had made up her mind, turned her head and looked over, "But, I think, Sally will want to see you, if you can talk to her, maybe she will be happy Get up. Of course, I know this is too much to ask, so please forgive my rudeness..."

Neil and the others all turned their attention to Hugo. They all knew that Sally's favorite was always Hugo. Hugo had an extraordinary weight in her heart. a belief. Hugo felt a heavy pressure on his shoulders, making him breathless.

With great power comes great responsibility. Hugo knows this clearly, and he intends to shoulder this responsibility, otherwise he would not choose to cooperate with the Grayson Gift Foundation to contribute to charitable causes. "If it doesn't interrupt Sally's rest, I'd love to have this opportunity. You know, tomorrow's concert in Denver, and I always feel like something's missing without seeing Sally."

Hugo's empathy eased Jessica's concerns, which made her chuckle, "As long as you don't take trouble."

Looking back at his teammates, Hugo stepped forward and followed Jessica. When he passed Pedro, he patted Hugo on the shoulder and said in a hoarse voice, "Remember to ask Sally, does she like you or me more?" A joke made everyone chuckle, but the bitterness in the smile could hardly be concealed.

Entering the intensive care unit is not an easy task. Hugo was first disinfected, then put on protective clothing, and disinfected again before entering. Although he didn't wear a mask like he did on TV, such a cautious procedure still made Hugo's heart sink slowly, because he knew that this meant that Sally's condition was very serious and was very susceptible to infection, so he must multiple protections.

Walking into the entire snow-white room, the faint blue light made the temperature seem to drop a little, and the smell of disinfectant under the nose always lingered, just like the lingering smoke, firmly grasped Hugo's wrist and Ankle, every step is so hard.

Then Hugo saw Sally.

At this time, Sally was lying peacefully on the hospital bed, wearing a lake blue hospital gown. Except for the drip on her arm, Sally seemed to look no different, just fell asleep. Such calmness made Hugo's footsteps slow down.

Jessica stepped forward and tapped Sally on the shoulder. Sally opened her eyes slowly, and after her vision got used to the light, she saw the person in front of her clearly and chuckled, "Hey, Mom, how long have I slept?"

"For a while, just for a while." Jessica smiled tenderly, the beauty on her face intoxicating, "Hey, I brought a special visitor, you see who it is."

Sally followed the direction of her mother's finger, turned her head and looked over, and then Hugo saw Sally's pale cheeks, without any blood, even pale, as if even the blood vessels hidden under the skin could be seen. It is clear that the lips without any color are like a dry desert - but at this time, the lips are gently drawn upward, and a dazzling smile bursts out, like a dense sea of ​​clouds penetrating shadows Sunrise with infinite light.

"Oh, God, Hugo, I hope I'm not being rude. I was imagining that the most beautiful image in your mind would be forever," Sally said softly, as if afraid to be alarmed. dust.

The disinfectant potion under the nose began to boil, and the white color in all directions made the world quiet, only the pungent potion smell was like a cloud surge. Hugo lowered his chin slightly, and a smile formed on the corner of his mouth. He was instantly amazed, "Hey, sweetheart, you look perfect. The only imperfection is that the air quality here is really bad."

A word made Sally stunned for a while, and she laughed out loud.
