Chapter 2155
“Go ask the doctor for your diagnosis, if it’s hopeless, just euthanize it as you wish, does that satisfy you?” I said with a cold face.
Gu Han couldn’t take advantage, so he turned his face back and said to himself sickly, “I don’t object.”
That virtue of life and death being rich, really owes me a beating, “Seriously, if you weren’t a patient, I’d beat you up hard.”
After saying that, her heels stomped loudly and quickly left the ward, slamming the door behind her with a bang.
The moment he turned around, his body was instantly raided by mental fatigue again, and his whole body wilted.
The way Gu Han was, with no desire to live, there was no guarantee that at some point his life would really end as silently as those gambling words he had spoken.
The thought of such a scene sent chills down his spine.
As we passed the management office of the floor, a group of people suddenly burst in through the stairway, surrounding the nurses’ station with an eager face asking, “Where can I go to the rooftop? Where?”
“The rooftop is not for patients and families to go to at will.” The nurse was a little chubby, presumably from an overnight shift, and didn’t look and act very well.
“I’m not a family member, I’m a negotiator, do you know anything about negotiators, someone has jumped off a building, are you responsible for any further delays and accidents!” The man in the lead was anxious.
The nurse then realized the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly called for a key and handed it over in a hurry.
Birth, old age, sickness and death are all played out here every day, and it is not at all unusual for those who cannot accept reality to choose to end their suffering prematurely, only now, as a friend of the patient, the state of mind is different, and if I could, I would like to advise that person to think outside the box, it is not yet the worst time.
I watched the negotiator disappear with his men at the security exit and stood bewildered for a moment before lifting my feet again and going to join Fu Shenyan at the attending doctor’s office.
Every time he took two steps, a vibration went through his pocket and the phone came in.
I was puzzled when I picked it up, but it was the number of the long-lost Jane Picker. I thought she had eliminated all these modern devices.
Pressed the answer button and put it to my ear, ready to ask her where she was, “Hello, Gather Jane ……”
“Are you the owner’s family?”
The words reached her throat and were squashed back, an unfamiliar male voice on the other side of the line, businesslike in tone and not without tension.
“Do you mean Jane?” I was a little confused, “What’s wrong with her?”
“Yes, you’d better hurry up and come to hospital number one, she’s on the rooftop and could jump off at any moment!”
After a couple of seconds of brain confusion, I reacted and immediately ran for the stairway where the negotiator had just disappeared, “I’ll be right there, you’ve got to stop her!”
Luckily, the inpatient unit was only two floors away from the rooftop, and within two minutes of meeting the police, I was outside the quarantine and met Jane.
She was standing at the very edge of the rooftop, her skirt blown up by the morning breeze at her feet, curling up, her posture light, a beautiful painting if she wasn’t on the edge of a ghostly gate.
Was this how Gu Han’s mother had gone, and was this how she was going to leave him behind?
“Pick up Jane!” My heart was pounding so hard that I didn’t know how to persuade, the only thought in my head was to get her to at least focus on safety.
She heard the voice and turned her face calmly, “There you are.”
There was a pause and a bitter smile down for a while, “Coming so soon, so many things I haven’t thought about yet ……”
Wondering what that meant, a police officer behind her whispered a reminder, “Try to stall for a bit, the fire brigade is blocking the road and there’s no protection down there now!”
Chapter 2156
Are you kidding me?
The best hospital in the city, but the firefighting can’t keep up, it is clearly playing with human lives!
But now there is no time to pursue this, you have to regain your composure immediately even if you relax for even a second, it will be the end of your life.
I had seen with my own eyes how decisive it was to take that step when someone was determined to die, and I didn’t want to see the same scene again, no matter what.
“If you haven’t thought it through, take your time, don’t rush, Gu Han was just telling me about you.” I made a nervous swallowing motion, not daring to slacken every nerve as I did my best to keep myself sane.
The word Gu Han was always special in her eyes, as if she had been reminded of something, Gao Jian’s smile froze on her face and she slowly turned her face, her icy eyes looking at me, “Shen Shu, do you believe in fate?”
“What?” My brain was too blank to think, I nodded along with her words, “I believe, I believe, what do you have to come over, we can talk about it, as long as you don’t be impulsive.”
I had a small mind, talking to divert Gao Jian’s attention, while moving forward little by little with imperceptible speed, trying to shorten the distance between us.
But I forgot that, except in front of Gu Han, she was also a smart and bold woman, and my trick was seen through by her at a glance, “Don’t go any further.”
I thought I was hallucinating when Gathering Jane spoke again, this time more forcefully, moving her right leg straight back a small half step, her heel dangling in the air, losing her balance and falling, in the blink of an eye, “Stop if you don’t want me to jump right off.”
I was angry and helpless, my feet had reacted first, stopping firmly in place, my hands unconsciously raised to sit in a blocking motion, “Okay, I’m not moving, you’re not moving either.”
Threatening someone with their own life to get the desired result, obviously unable to cause any substantial harm to others, but on the contrary, it always works, consuming nothing more than the friendship between the two sides.
Am I to assume that people who threaten to die don’t care about their feelings for each other?
It’s like having a thorn in your throat that won’t go up or down, yet it’s scratchy and unsettling.
The good thing was that Gaijin did not go any further, which barely made my heart drop for the time being.
“Tell me, Jane, what do you want to do and how will you come back?” I gathered my emotions and spoke again, this time much more calmly.
Gathering simply ignored my words and asked me back, “Have you been to see him?”
Gu Han?
I reacted for a couple of seconds and nodded, “I just came out of the ward, Gu Han is doing much better than yesterday and has been willing to eat.”
“Heh ……” Gathering Jane smiled, the first rays of the morning sun hit her face but it looked so miserable, “So you know, he’s just been resuscitated?”
“Resuscitated?” I was completely unaware.
“Last night, he just gave away his oxygen machine in private, if I hadn’t been uneasy and got up early to check the ward again, what you would have seen today would have been a corpse!”
A corpse.
This was the second time I heard this word today, and the impact was deeper than once.
Thinking back to Gu Han’s smug look, he suddenly understood where he got his strength from, and his heart felt like a hole had been dug into it, as panic and fear continued to pour in.
There is nothing new and scary about killing yourself once you’ve done it. Countless films, movies and realities all mirror the same ending.
I didn’t understand what Gao Jian meant, so I could only ask tentatively, “So, Gu Han wants to die, and you’re prepared to stay with him, regardless of your parents, and without your children?”
