When she woke up the next day, she found that she had received an email from Lin Zilan. She had composed three songs and felt that something was wrong. She had composed three songs, so Violet Orchid probably hadn't slept the entire night. Luo Li regretted sending her so many lyrics at once. She wanted to send Violet Orchid a WeChat message but was afraid that it would disturb her rest. She hurriedly washed up and went to the Fleeting Years Restaurant. Other than a cashier who was working, she didn't see Violet Orchid. Luo Li asked the cashier," Why isn't Violet Orchid here?" The cashier replied," She didn't seem to have had a good rest last night. She opened the door in the morning and left. I saw her walking unsteadily, but she didn't listen to me."”
Luo Li sent a WeChat message to Lin Zilan asking where she was, but she didn't reply for a long time. She wasn't in the mood to eat breakfast and went straight to school.
After walking down a street and turning a corner, there was a withered lilac on the ground. Luo Li walked around the flower and looked up to see a group of people not far away. First, she saw a police car. A few policemen in police uniforms were like Alice in Twilight City, bringing a prophecy to this thin morning.
In the crowd, they saw a pink SUV that had flipped over and a deformed Maserati on the other side.
Luo Li suddenly stopped in her tracks, her heart trembling. Then, he felt his face burn and his mouth and feet tremble. He took a step forward but could not feel any movement. Sometimes, people could not feel sadness and used the excuse that calmness was the bottom line of maturity. It was not as good as a child's lie. Passing through the human wall was like walking through a cluster of bright-colored peony flowers, and the most delicate one was lying peacefully in the ruins, enjoying the nourishment of fresh blood.
Violet Orchid, a name like a flower. It seemed that beautiful species always withered easily. God had committed the most unforgivable crime in order to be fair. No matter how many crosses were nailed, it would not be able to exchange for the realization that the goose had passed without a trace.
Luo Li: " Doctor, please do your best to save her. If you don't have enough money, I can gather it. You must save her."
Doctor: " Please calm down. She doesn't need to pay for treatment in England. Her life is no longer in danger."
"Is she awake?" "I want to see her," she said as she rushed into the ward, but was stopped by the doctor.
Doctor: " Although her life is out of danger, due to the back of her head hitting the ground, her brain tissue is damaged. The brain trauma has caused her to lose brain function. She is currently in a light and deep coma.”
"I don't understand what you mean. Please let me see her!" Luo Li shouted.”
As he spoke, he pushed the doctor away and rushed into the ward.
The two male nurses hugged Luo Li, and the doctor also got up to stop Luo Li.
"I don't know what you're talking about. I want to see her!" Luo Li pushed. Let me see her!"
Doctor: "Please calm down. The patient is still under observation. We can't let you see her."”
"Maybe you don't know what PVS means. Please look it up in your dictionary," said a nurse.
Wang Zhengguo walked over and gestured for them to keep quiet. Luo Li didn't care about that and just wanted to see Violet Orchid.
Wang Zhengguo slapped Luo Li.
"Get lost!"
Luo Li shouted in Chinese and pushed the nurse with all her might.
"Pa, pa, pa" Wang Zhengguo slapped Luo Li five times.
" PVS means vegetative. Wake up!"
Gao Yi handed a napkin to Luo Li.
Sometimes, people shed tears not because they had lost something, but because there was no possibility of making up for it.
Cry, cry, my tears flow into my blood and turn into sulfuric acid, and then burn my heart bit by bit.
Cry, cry, cry. Tears flowed to the Milky Way and became a flower, then slowly swallowed the entire world.
The darkness didn't just devour your eyes, but the entire world.
Tired from crying, she sobbed and fell asleep in the corner. If she fell asleep like this, would she be able to see Violet Orchid again? Luo Li was still thinking about what happened last night.
When she woke up in the morning, she was draped in a blanket. A nurse sat beside Luo Li. Seeing that Luo Li had woken up, the nurse greeted her in a friendly manner,"Good morning."
Luo Li rubbed her face, lowered her head, and pondered for a while. She raised her head and asked,"Is there any possibility of her waking up?"
The nurse said,"Anything is possible. Let's ask the doctor who operated on her."
" Alright, let's go." Luo Li stood up.
Arriving at the doctor's office, Luo Li greeted him,""Good morning, sir."
The doctor gestured for Luo Li to sit down.
"Honorable doctor, may I ask if there's any possibility of my friend waking up?" asked Luo Li. The doctor stopped typing and thought for a moment."There are people in a vegetative state who can wake up. Some can wake up in a few days, while others can wake up in a year. It's very difficult for them to wake up after a year. Her symptoms are quite special.”
"Can she hear me if I talk to her?" asked Luo Li.”
The doctor seemed to be interested and said," There have been studies that show that some patients who are slightly comatose can hear and understand external sounds. A professor at the University of Oxford has also done research. They can project the thoughts of the patient's head onto a screen to understand the patient's information transmission.
Luo Li quickly asked,"Then how can I contact that professor? I hope she can come and treat my friend."
The doctor smiled." That's just an ideal model. It's still in the research stage. Generally, it won't be treated externally. However…"
Luo Li understood and whispered to the doctor,""Say whatever you want to say. I'll think of a way to get as much money as you want."
The doctor thought for a moment and said,"If their research project is still going on, you can donate research funds to include patients in their research project, but it's expensive."
Luo Li's eyes lit up." No problem," she quickly said." I'll immediately gather the money. How can I contact them?" The doctor said,"If you can really donate money, I will find a way to contact them as soon as possible. We all know that this is an emergency."
Luo Li took out her bank card." The money here is enough to buy a Porsche 911. It's my tuition and living expenses for the past few years. If it's not enough, I'll go and collect more."
The doctor asked Luo Li to put the card away and said,""I believe you. I'll contact them now. Go out and wait."
Luo Li stood up and called Wang Zhengguo to come to the hospital immediately.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Wang Zhengguo rushed over. He panted and asked anxiously,"What's wrong, brother?“
Luo Li explained the general situation and the doctor's statement, telling Wang Zhengguo that it might cost a lot of money. Wang Zhengguo sighed and rubbed his head. He walked around a few times and said to Luo Li,"We need to contact Lin Zilan's family. They'll pay for it. What's your relationship with her?”
Luo Li's face was filled with helplessness and bitterness as she said anxiously,""I can't say. I can't let her family know.”
Wang Zhengguo said with a surprised expression,"Did you find a car to hit her?”
"Would I do that?" Luo Li immediately said angrily. I have no enmity with her! However…Sigh, don't say anymore. Time is tight and it will cost a lot of money. Can you lend me some?”
Wang Zhengguo said,"Brother, I understand that this is an emergency, but this money is really not a small amount. How about this? I'll get the lawyer to come over and we'll sign a loan contract. If you're willing, I'll lend it to you. Is that okay?"“
Luo Li replied with certainty,"Okay."”
At this moment, the doctor opened the door and let Luo Li in. The doctor went straight to the point. They are very interested in the patient's current situation, but their research project has been closed due to a lack of funds.”
"Are their instruments still there?" asked Luo Li.“
The doctor said,"They are all here. The research just ended last year, and I asked about the funding needed to restart the project."
"I'll find a way to get as much as you want," said Luo Li.
The doctor put down the pen in his hand and said to Luo Li,"At least 600,000 pounds (six million RMB). Can you get it?”
"This…I…I…" Luo Li was dumbfounded.
The doctor said,"If it doesn't work, we'll wait first. Maybe the patient will wake up."
Luo Li fiercely shook her head and said firmly,"No, I have something important to ask her. How about this? I'll raise the money. Tell them that I'm willing to invest and ask them if they can see the patient first."
The doctor gritted his teeth and replied,"I'll contact them when you have enough money."
"You have to believe me, I'll definitely be able to get it," said Luo Li.
The doctor shook his head." That's not a small number. I can't believe you."
Luo Li slammed the table and walked out.
Wang Zhengguo was standing outside the door with another Chinese man in a suit beside him. Wang Zhengguo introduced,"This is Lawyer Zhang. He's the chief legal officer of my family's British branch. Let's find a seat to sign the contract."
"Zhengguo, we're brothers. How much can you lend me at most?" Luo Li stood still and said.”
Wang Zhengguo was stunned for a moment, then he immediately recovered and said,"I'll definitely borrow as much as I can."
Luo Li counted with four fingers.
Wang Zhengguo patted Luo Li's shoulder and said,"D * mn, I thought you would be so nervous. It's only 400,000 yuan, no problem, go sign the contract."
As she spoke, she was about to walk forward, but Luo Li stood still.
"What's wrong?" Wang Zhengguo asked.”
"Sorry, it's not 400,000. It's 4 million. Do you want to borrow it?"Wang Zhengguo said in surprise,"So many? I don't have that much money in my card."
Luo Li said,"Lend me as much as you can. I'll go find someone else."
Wang Zhengguo sighed and said,"Brother, I actually quite like you. You value relationships, keep a low profile, and are talented. But this four million yuan, sigh, is it worth it for her?”
Luo Li didn't say anything. She really didn't know what to say. She had never borrowed money from anyone since she was young.
Wang Zhengguo picked up the phone and said,"Well, I'll call my accountant and discuss it with him."
Luo Li nodded.
Zheng Guo walked to the window and lit a cigarette. He chatted on the phone. After a while, he finished the call and walked over."I asked the accountant. Currently, I only have two million in movable funds. My family didn't give me much shares either. I can only lend you two million at most.”
" Alright, thank you," Luo Li said.
After signing the contract, Zheng Guo asked the accountant to transfer the money to Luo Li's account immediately.
Luo Li tried to contact Lisa, but she found that her phone was switched off.
She sent a WeChat message to contact the other students, but she realized that many of them had blocked Luo Li.
'He should be avoiding disaster and taking advantage of luck,' Luo Li thought.
Looking at the string of numbers, Luo Li thought about it and dialed it.
"Hello, Gao Yi, I have an urgent matter to discuss with you."
" What's wrong? Have you finished writing the song?" Gao Yi asked.
"Speaking of this, Luo Li panicked. She was so nervous that she didn't know what to say."
" Where is he? Why isn't he speaking?" Gao Yi asked.
" I want to borrow money. Lin Zilan is unconscious," Luo Li said.
"I know, I heard about it. But in the UK, medical treatment is free.”Gao Yi replied.
Luo Li said," Her illness is quite special. We need to set up a research project. The probability of her waking up is higher." Gao Yi said," No way. There's no need. We can just let the hospital treat her."
"I'm still short of two million. Do you want to borrow it or not?" Luo Li said impatiently.”"Two million? Who lent you so much?" Gao Yi replied in surprise. " Do you? Please," Luo Li said. " Sorry, I don't have money," Gao Yi said coldly.
Luo Li did not say goodbye and hung up the phone.
There seemed to be a song coming from the sky outside the window.
Parting without saying goodbye, are you sad?
She turned around and smiled, unwilling to give up.
……….
Luo Li: "Dad, my friend got into a car accident. He needs 2 million yuan."
Dad: "Don't mind other people's business."
"Mom, I got into a fight and injured someone. I have to pay 2 million yuan."
Mom: "Who are you kidding? You don't know how to fight!"
Luo Li: "Uncle, I was stabbed. I need 2 million to heal."
"Nephew, don't lie to me. Your mother said you were joking. April Fool's Day, right?"”
"Grandpa, I want to borrow two million from you."
"Grandson, 200 yuan?" I, I, I just sold rice today, and I have exactly 200 yuan. How, how can I give it to you?”
"No need, Grandpa, thank you."
Luo Li said,"Accountant Yang, I want to sell my shares in the company. I need 2 million.""About this, get your dad to call me and tell me about it.
480 steps. That's the distance from the hospital's first floor corridor to the roof. That's why I can't see you from this end.
A group of people had already gathered downstairs.
" Don't jump, you'll see through it eventually. Everything is futile."
It seemed that foreigners always liked to use Lincoln Park to persuade others.
The setting sun in the horizon once again imprinted itself on Luo Li's face. It was truly beautiful. As she was looking at it, a large cloud blocked her vision. It turned out that people who felt guilty did not even have the right to appreciate beauty.
" Gentlemen on the roof, please pay attention. Suicide is against the law in the UK. You will be sentenced. Please abide by the law."
There seemed to be a few police cars parked downstairs.
Luo Li wondered if Violet Orchid would have been fine if they had arrived earlier.
The police cleared the crowd.
……
As time ticked by, Luo Li suddenly thought of the story of Han Han jumping off a building in one of the cities.
It turned out that he was not afraid of heights. He looked around unscrupulously, and everything seemed so ordinary. It was a pity that there was no surging wave of new waves.
"Luo Li, I sold the car and got two million! "Get the f * ck down!" Wang Zhengguo shouted from behind.
"Really?" Luo Li turned around and asked.
"Just check the balance!"
" Alright, I believe you," Luo Li said as she jumped down.
Wang Zhengguo held Luo Li in his arms and walked down the stairs under the guidance of the lawyer.
As the lawyer walked, he said to the police,"I am a Crown Lawyer. Due to the language barrier, my client was unable to express his true thoughts. This Chinese friend is just watching the sunset. This does not violate the laws of the United Kingdom. Please allow him to pass."“
The two of them arrived at the doctor's office. Luo Li said,""I apologize for my reckless behavior. I have the money. Please contact the research team."
The doctor said,"It's okay. I understand how you feel. I'll contact them now."
"Please tell them to come here as soon as possible. They must bring along equipment that can create images of thoughts," Luo Li said.
The doctor said,"Okay, no problem. I'll contact them now."
After contacting them, the research team said that they would send a team over tomorrow. They would sign the contract and invest in the donation funds first. Then, they could carry out the treatment and image the thoughts that Luo Li wanted to see.
The next afternoon, the team arrived. It included lawyers, professors, students, various PhD mentors, experts, and scholars. There were more than ten people.
A middle-aged man in a suit walked towards Luo Li and said," Hello, I'm Professor Martin. I'm the leader of this research project. Thank you very much for your donation to restart our research project.”
Luo Li said,"To be honest, I'm not donating to charity. I just hope that you can save my friend. Also, I heard that you have a device that can display the thoughts of the patient's brain?”
Martin said," Yes, the device is here. It can show the patient's brain activity and image what we know every day. Let's try it."
A hat filled with wires was placed on Lin Zilan's head. The wires were connected to the monitor and computer.”Try asking her questions,"Martin said."
Luo Li thought about it and asked,"Think about the first time we met."
The screen showed the movement of the fingers, followed by some beautiful flowers, and finally the movement of the palm.
Luo Li took out her phone and played " Those Flowers ".
Wang Zhengguo was explaining to the professors," The finger movement is playing the guitar. The palm movement is clapping. The flower refers to the song she sang,'Those Flowers.' When they first met, Violet Orchid was playing the guitar. She sang 'Those Flowers' and at the end, Luo Li clapped.“
"Did you spend the whole night writing songs?" Luo Li asked again.”
The screen showed an image of a nod.
Luo Li whispered a few words into Lin Zilan's ear. Luo Li could smell the faint scent of shampoo on Violet Orchid's hair.
Suddenly, the screen went black, and everyone was stunned. Then, it was white again, and then the transition between white and black became faster and faster. The screen became like a flash. The professor rushed to the computer and started to adjust the data. Then, he suddenly asked Luo Li angrily,"What did you say? The patient was now in an abnormally excited state, which was not conducive to her recovery! What did you just say?"
Luo Li widened her eyes and stood there like a child who had done something wrong, not knowing what to say.
The professor walked over to Luo Li and shook her body as he asked anxiously,""Tell me what you said, we don't have time to lose."
"Look at the screen!" Wang Zhengguo said.
Countless purple orchids appeared on the screen. The purple orchids began to spin and fly. Suddenly, tens of thousands of golden lights flashed. In an instant, the purple orchids were shaken into a sky full of white foam under the golden light.
Time froze. Luo Li couldn't help but shed a tear as she watched. The tear fell onto Violet Orchid's arm. Everything on the screen suddenly froze and disappeared, leaving behind a pear with a purple orchid. Luo Li shed another tear. The pear fell from the sky, and the purple orchid stopped in midair as if it was withering.
Two pears appeared at the bottom of the screen. The two pears slowly rose up and the withering purple orchid sank down. When it sank to the bottom of the screen, it suddenly turned into soil. There seemed to be a wind on the screen. A seed fell. In an instant, a small grass sprang out from the place where it fell. The grass grew at an astonishing speed and grew into a big tree. The tree began to bear fruit, and the fruit grew bigger and bigger. It was a pear.
Luo Li walked closer to the screen and punched him. His arm stopped on the broken screen, and the glass shards entered his flesh. Blood flowed down the glass and dripped onto the ground.
No one said anything. They were all guessing what the screen meant.
The nurse brought some gauze over to bandage Luo Li's wound. Luo Li pushed the nurse away and walked towards Lin Zilan who was lying on the bed.
He held Violet Orchid's hand and sobbed.
