Chapter 277 Night in the Hospital

Look out the balcony window.

The patter of night rain blew through the bleak night sky.

A heavy atmosphere lingers around them. Even though the 100-inch large TV is broadcasting lively variety shows, Tianhai Qimingyue always feels uneasy.

Why do you feel this way?

This feeling is obvious, very uncomfortable and obvious.

This made Tianhai Qi Mingyue couldn't help but close the mystery novel in her hand.

She couldn't stand it anymore.

This is a very rare situation.

The uneasiness made her turn her head.

On the dining table in the living room, the piles of food have long lost their heat.

Three pairs of used bowls and chopsticks were stacked around the dishes.

The Seven Bright Moons of the Sky Sea turned their heads again.

On the sofa, Suzaki Sakakihara, who had just taken a shower, was leaning on her face with her right hand. She was focusing entirely on the big TV in front of her. With her other left hand, she kept sending potato chips on the coffee table to her mouth. In addition, you can also vaguely hear the sound of Tianhai Zhixue practicing guitar in the room.

Sakakihara Suzu looked at it very seriously, and the sound of biting potato chips was also crisp and clear.

Tianhai Qimingyue just stared at her for a while and then suddenly frowned.

Because she didn't know why her senses seemed to be much clearer and more penetrating. Through the gold-rimmed glasses, she could even see the potato chip crumbs on Ah Ling's lips.

What a strange feeling

Tianhai Qimingyue's heart became even more uneasy.

"Why do you look at me like that?" Sakakihara Suzu noticed that Amami Qimingyue was staring at her with a frown.

Tianhai Qimingyue withdrew her gaze and tried to calmly say: "Sister-chan should call me sister. As for why I am looking at you, aren't you curious?"

"What are you curious about? Ah -" Sakakihara Suzu sat up as if she suddenly remembered something. She rummaged around on the sofa for her phone, and finally took it out of her pocket.

She looked at the time and said, "That's right! It's almost eight o'clock. I went to pick up Sister Liuli, why haven't I come back yet?"

"Sister Liuli?"

"No way! I like Sister Liuli much more than I like You Duoduo!"

"Sister-chan really doesn't have the consciousness to be a younger sister. Why don't you make a call and ask?"

"You don't need to remind me!"

Sakakibara Suzu swiped her phone, found Sakakibara Raku's contact information, and dialed it several times.

As she twirled the potato chips, she put the phone to her ear.

Toot. Toot.

A blind tone.

Suzu Sakakihara put down her phone and looked at Nanami Nanami: "It seems that she is on a call."

"On the call? Why-"

Before Tianhai Qimingyue had time to wonder, her cell phone rang in the next second.

Sakakibara Suzu: "Here, it must be my brother who called you, right?"

"it's him."

Tianhai Qimingyue glanced at the contact name displayed on the phone screen and answered the call.

She waited for a second, and an anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.

"July, Minato Central Hospital."

"Central Hospital?" Tianhai Qimingyue's expression changed slightly, "."

She seemed to know something instantly.

".How is sister doing now?"

"You're bleeding, just come here quickly. There's no need to call Zhixue and A Ling."

beep--

A short blind tone.

The phone hangs up.

elder sister

Tianhai Qimingyue didn't hesitate. She immediately stood up, went to her room to get an umbrella, put on an extra coat over her school uniform, and was ready to go out.

Sakakihara Suzu was very confused when she saw her hurriedly walking in and out with a serious expression:

"Hey - what are you doing? It's so sudden. Where are you going?"

"Go out." Tianhai Qi Mingyue checked the change on her body.

"What are you going out for? What happened?" Sakakihara Suzu was even more confused.

"Sister-chan wants to know?"

"My brother is giving you a call and you are about to go out! Don't I want to know!" Sakakihara Suzu did not see too much anxiety on the face of Amami Qimingyue, thinking that my brother and the others should just encounter something. I need this fox to go out for a while.

Tianhai Qimingyue stood on the edge of the living room and pondered for a moment, "I'm sorry, sister-chan, it's better to treat this matter as if you don't know about it."

"Why?!" Sakakihara Suzu felt strange, but that was all.

"There's no reason. Anyway, knowing you won't do any good. Just stay at home with your aunt. I'll go out and ask you to come over depending on the situation."

"Eh-"

Sakakibara Suzu wanted to say something, but she immediately saw Nanami Nanami turn around and disappear from sight. With the click from the entrance, she knew Nanami was out completely.

Sakakibara Suzu hugged the doll on the sofa, looked at the place where the seven bright moons in the sky disappeared, and muttered:

"What the hell are you doing in such a hurry? Are you carrying me to a big dinner?"

*

Tianhai Qi Mingyue took the elevator and went downstairs. She opened her umbrella and hailed a taxi on the side of the road.

"Go to Minato Central Hospital."

"Central Hospital, right?"

The door hurriedly closed, the taxi engine started, and merged into the numerous traffic flows on Shirokane Takanawa Avenue.

Because it was located in a busy city, the taxi speed was not too fast, so Tianhai Qi Mingyue kept looking out the window anxiously - that was where the Central Hospital was.

In the dark night, there was not a trace of starlight, not a ray of moonlight, only drops of drizzle, falling on every corner of this bustling street. Even the water splashes caused by cars running over the road are illuminated by the neon lights of the street lights.

Staring at such a night scene with Qimingyue in the sky, it was inevitable that some helplessness and emotion would arise in her heart.

Has my sister made it this far?

I don’t know how my brother said those words to his sister.

My sister is different from me. My sister rarely passively compromises with others.

My sister has always been dependent on others. While the elder sister can best give others what they want, the elder sister will also look forward to the other person's response.

If there is no response, then the sister is bound to fall into a state of self-doubt.

[Are you not good enough? Not working hard enough? Not liked? ]

My sister should think that she is useless, right? Very redundant, right?

"well"

Tianhai Qimingyue sighed helplessly.

I had thought about it myself, and because of this I voluntarily ran away from my mother. I ran to the mountains outside the village and accidentally broke my foot. Then I met my brother at that time at a bus stop in the countryside.

Sister, you are probably in the same state of mind as you were at that time.

Feeling uncomfortable, wanting to escape, unable to accept reality, and unable to find anything to rely on.

Sister, maybe it’s more serious.

After all, for my sister, this is already the second time she has been abandoned.

*

"Ma'am, the Central Hospital is here." The driver turned to Tianhai Qimingyue, who was sitting upright behind him, and said.

"Yes, please."

Tianhai Qimingyue pulled the coat on her body to cover her shoulders, turned around and took out the cash.

She paid the driver, held an umbrella, and stood at the door of Minato Central Hospital.

The taxi pulled away behind her.

Raindrops all over the sky fell from the sky like filaments, covering all the passers-by holding umbrellas and walking around in a moist atmosphere. Tianhai Qimingyue stood quietly in the rain, silently looking at the door of the hospital.

She went inside.

According to the message sent to him by Sakakibara Raku midway, Amami Nanami came to the emergency surgery.

She saw Raku Sakakibara sitting outside the department, and it seemed that the situation was more serious than she thought.

"July, you're finally here." Sakakihara stood up immediately.

"Are you injured?" Tianhai Qimingyue glanced at the thick bandage on his arm.

"Me? I'm not important, it's just that my arm was scratched."

"Where's sister?" Tianhai Qimingyue didn't ask any more questions.

"Inside." Sakakibara glanced at the door of the emergency room. As he took a breath, he inevitably exhaled, "But you don't have to worry too much. The doctor said that no vital parts were injured, and because he was sent to the hospital in time, , the initial inspection showed just some blood loss.”

"What is the specific situation?"

"It's Liuli. She's very emotionally unstable. Then, there happened to be a fruit knife for peeling fruits in the hotel where I took her to rest."

"Sister, did you attack me?" Tianhai Qimingyue guessed.

".You still know her in July"

After hearing this, Tianhai Qiming focused on his bandaged arm, "Then, when my sister attacked me, you rushed over and blocked my sister?"

"Well, I blocked it, but it only blocked part of it. I couldn't help it. I thought she was listening to the advice. I let my guard down." Sakakihara glanced at his left arm and said helplessly, "As for my hand, it's An incision was made and a few stitches were made. The bleeding was not too much, and Liuli was seriously injured. Although I helped her block part of the force, the knife still went in a lot. Then she resisted me taking it. She came to the hospital and went through a lot of trouble. I don’t want to say the details, but she fainted in the end and the ambulance came.”

"."

Tianhai Qimingyue was silent after listening.

Sister, you did it to yourself.

Sister, what was your mentality at that time?

Probably desperate.

Only despair would make her treat herself like this.

My sister has always been a very gentle person,

I have always been a person who is willing to greet others with a smile.

Now I am injured and in the emergency room.

[beep.beep.]

Phone call.

Amami Nanamigetsu suddenly saw that Raku Sakakibara almost answered someone's phone number, so he snatched it away, held it in his hand and asked:

"Who are you calling?"

Sakakibara looked calm: "Give it to uncle and the others."

"Are you going to call dad and the others over?"

"Yes."

"If something like this happens, do you still dare to call dad over?"

"Otherwise? Qi Qi, no matter how you talk about uncle, she is also Liuli's father and your father. If something like this happens, he still has the right to know, right?"

Tianhai Qimingyue frowned in a rare way: "Do you know the importance of the matter? If you tell Dad about this matter - let's not talk about the reactions of Dad and Auntie for now. Grandpa is also likely to know, if he Knowing that you actually let your sister do such a thing, no matter how sensible grandpa is, you will still be held accountable."

"In July, I dare to take responsibility. Since I have done something, I have decided to tell everything."

"Say it? No, no, you can't do it now."

"Give it to me." Sakakibara looked at his cell phone and suddenly stretched out his unbandaged hand towards her.

Tianhai Qimingyue had always been vigilant. When she saw him approaching, she took two steps back. She put the phone behind her and said to him solemnly: "Do you understand the seriousness of what you said? "

"Of course I understand."

"Understand? Since you understand, you can't do this."

"I just understand, that's why I think I should do this. Qiyue, you definitely know why Liuli did what he did today."

"Brother, are you regretting it?"

"No regrets. It's just that I didn't think of reconciling her relationship with you. It just exacerbated her behavior tonight."

"Then what do you want to say?"

"I just think that Ruri did this." Sakakibara took a deep breath, turned his head, and stopped talking, "If she gets angry, I'll feel better if she stabs me."

Brother, I feel uncomfortable too.

Tianhai Qimingyue's voice calmed down: "Brother needs to calm down now, just like sister."

"I know"

Raku Sakakibara sat down on the hospital chair outside the emergency room, holding his forehead with one hand, "I'll be quiet first."

Tianhai Qimingyue looked at him and sat next to him.

Both of them were silent for a while.

It was not until the doctor in a white coat came out of the emergency room and told them that the patient was safe and sound that they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you doctor"

"It's a matter of duty." The old doctor seemed to be used to this kind of thing, his tone was calm, and he didn't want to ask about the reason. "The patient is not awake yet, but all the body surface indexes are normal, that is, There is some blood loss, just stay in the hospital for recuperation for a while. You go to the front desk to go through the formalities first. And you, remember not to exercise strenuously in the near future, your bleeding will not be any better. "

"Okay, sorry, doctor, please remind me."

"fine."

The old doctor left resolutely, and Tianhai Jiuliuli was pushed out of the emergency room by several nurses.

Sakakibara looked at her slightly pale face lying on the hospital bed, and it would be a lie to say that he didn't feel sorry for her.

"Are you going or should I go?"

"I'll go and help look at Liuli. I know she doesn't want to look at me. Even if she hasn't woken up yet."

"That's up to you."

After completing the procedures, Sakakihara Raku returned from the front desk to the single ward prepared for Ruri in the hospital.

The whole room has a unique hospital smell, which should be said to be the smell of disinfectant.

Tianhai Qimingyue was sitting next to Tianhai Jiuliuli. This room is located very high, and you can see the almost transparent Tokyo night sky behind Tianhai Qimingyue.

Sakakibara saw that Nanami Nanami kept lowering her head, as if she was in a daze, thinking about something.

"What are you thinking about in July?"

"I'm thinking about how I will deal with my relationship with you and my sister in the future."

"."

"Don't you think the relationship between the two of us is messy?" Tianhai Qi Mingyue followed his movements with her eyes.

Raku Sakakibara pulled up a stool and sat down next to Amami Nanami, and at the same time looked at Amami Kuruuri who was lying on the hospital bed, "It would be strange if we don't mess up. We all have our own regrets about each other. We met when we were young, and we have been separated for more than ten years. Our reunion at the end of the year is also called a step-sibling relationship. You treat me with the kindness you would have for an older brother, but also with the kind of intimacy that far exceeds that of ordinary siblings."

"What do you think, brother?"

"What else can you think about? Do you want me to give up now? If that is your choice in July, I respect it, but I will try to retain it." Sakakihara tried to pull Tianhai Jiureli's hand, but even if it was She fell asleep, and it seemed as if she wouldn't let herself pull it, and it slipped from her hand, ". Liuli is afraid that she will have a grudge against me from now on."

"The grudge can be eliminated. It's not like I haven't done anything to you before."

"Is there any?"

"Otherwise? Are you planning to write off all the things you've forgotten for so many years? I've told you that many times."

"Hey, hey, hey~ I know, I know."

"Don't keep mentioning it again and again. I hate repeating things."

"No problem," Sakakibara agreed, still looking at Tianhai Jiuli, "but Qi Qi, I think it's better to inform my uncle and them."

Nanami Nanami closed her eyes and glanced at Sakakibara Raku: "I still don't agree with this."

"This can't be hidden."

"If I want to hide it, I have to ask my sister about her wishes. There are as many excuses as there are for getting hurt. Dad is so busy that he only has time to take a look at it, so he won't delve into it at all."

".Then how do I tell him that I like both of you at the same time?"

"." Tianhai Qimingyue closed her eyes, and her gold-rimmed glasses made her look extra quiet, "You shouldn't ask me about this, I don't have a temper?"

"I was wrong." Sakakihara surrendered decisively.

"forgive you."

The conversation ended and the air fell into silence again.

".What's your state of mind right now in July?"

"While I can't bear to leave my sister, I also feel sorry for her. But I won't be willing to give up on things."

"Even if Liuli threatens to die?"

"That's your choice, brother."

"You throw this problem to me," Raku Sakakihara raised his head and looked at the ceiling of the ward, "It's really difficult."

"The choice of a scumbag is naturally more difficult than that of a scumbag."

"Just stab me to death."

"Come on, nothing can be so easy."

"Ha ha."

Sakakihara smiled bitterly.

"July."

"What?" Tianhai Qi Mingyue raised one eye slightly but glanced at his side face.

"I still want to call uncle over."

"Why?"

"Because Liuli's matter was caused by procrastinating again and again, I mistakenly thought that Liuli would consider your mood because of her reconciliation with you. I didn't expect that she would directly transfer that mood to herself, and I made a mistake in my judgment by doing this to myself."

"Is it possible that my brother's action of calling daddy this time was also a mistake in judgment? Maybe it would be better to delay the matter this time?"

"Maybe it would be better if I didn't delay. Okay, that's it. I'll give my uncle a call!"

"That's too hasty. Are you going to tell dad directly? You have to know that no matter how kind a dad is, he can't face this kind of thing without being angry. Because you are a veritable scumbag."

"Idiot Qi Qi, I didn't say to shout now. Besides, uncle will know my thoughts sooner or later."

"Then when are you going to shout?" Tianhai Qimingyue felt a little displeased when she heard him calling her a fool, "And now, it's completely different from raw rice and cooked rice."

"You mean you want me to eat you all before you tell uncle?!"

"I never said that. But judging from your thoughts, you are indeed a scumbag."

"Hmph, no matter how many times you call me a scumbag, I won't get angry anymore."

"Because it is the truth."

"But only if you talk about me."

Sakakibara looked at Amami Kururi on the hospital bed again: "Also, didn't you just say that? Tell uncle, we can discuss it after Ryuri wakes up. We still have to listen to her opinion. .”

"Um"

Tianhai Qimingyue didn't speak anymore, which was considered to be recognition of his choice.

Sakakihara stood up and began to walk around the ward. He kept opening the closet as if he was rummaging for something.

"What are you turning over?"

"Futons for sleeping. Well, it seems that we do have spare ones, or two beds." Sakakibara held the closet and turned to Tianhai Qimingyue and said, "Today we will make two more beds and sleep here, and Ah Ling and the others can just say nothing and go home."

He took out all the quilts.

"I'm afraid that Liuli still can't think about it after she wakes up. It's better for the two of us to watch her here. We also ask Teacher Dao Jing for a day off from class tomorrow. She will understand us."

Tianhai Qimingyue kept staring at him.

"Emotional intelligence seems to be really high."

"It's already this high, okay, July." Sakakibara laid out the second bed and clapped his hands, "Okay, go to bed after making the call. It's getting late."

"No dinner?"

"I'm not in the mood to eat."

Sakakibara waved his hand and lay directly on his bed, looking at the ceiling solemnly:

"When Liuli wakes up tomorrow, she still doesn't know what her attitude will be towards me."

"I'll probably hate you, brother."

"If you hate me, hate me. I will try to make it up to her. Just like she apologized to me before. She didn't bother to take off her clothes and went to bed. Qi Qi, you should also go to bed early. Don't let Liuli wake up in the middle and run to the rooftop. Then I really have to repent my life and die to apologize to my uncle."

"I was kind of looking forward to seeing you do it."

"You mean seeing me die as an apology?"

"No, it means seeing you repent your life."

"You regret your life in Qiyue, right? Okay, okay, I've always been sorry for what happened to you."

"How can I see it?"

"Otherwise I wouldn't have said those words to Liuli today, right?"

"."

Tianhai Qimingyue stopped talking.

"Okay, go to bed now! How many times have I urged you to sleep?"

"Just sleep."

".I don't have time to flirt with you today, I'm feeling sad."

"Did not see it."

"It's really sad. Qiyue, you don't know the way Liuli treated me at that time." Sakakibara sighed.

"I think I also need to let you watch me holding the knife."

"Don't! You are much crueler than Liuli."

"Is it?"

"I will not say anymore."
