1624 long ordeal
Walking through the deep and long corridor, Renly watched Derek's retreating figure. The bright light was projected on the surrounding white walls, and the pale halo was projected dazzlingly, as if it was a blur in the space. The boundary becomes void, and it seems that time and space have lost their meaning. They are just floating in the middle of the universe, neither up nor down..
It seemed to just stay in place for a moment, but it seemed to have stood in place for a long, long time..
Derek appeared again, escorting a hospital bed towards the operating room. Derek seemed to notice Renly's gaze, turned his head and gestured with his jaw, and then Renly saw Renly lying on the hospital bed. That figure on——
I couldn't see the specific outline clearly, I could only see large swaths of blood, against the white sheets and walls, surging over with teeth and claws; a left hand fell from the edge of the bed, hanging weakly, as if it was a little bit... There was no movement at all, it was left alone outside, with even the last trace of life hanging on the fingertips, precarious..
Caught off guard, Renly's heart curled up again and he couldn't breathe..
He hates hospitals.
Renly calmly changed his angle and protected Mei Duo behind him, blocking Mei Duo's sight. However, he still turned his eyes and watched quietly as the hospital bed was pushed into the operating room. , silently chanting in my heart: Don’t give up, Paul, please don’t give up, never give up..
When the door to the operating room is closed again, it is like the boundary between heaven and hell, cut across unreasonably, leaving all the unknown behind the door..
Renly packed up all the fragments deep in his heart, withdrew his gaze, patted Meadow on the shoulder, and said in a calm voice, "Meido, let's sit down and rest first. The operation won't end so soon..”
Meadow was about to move, but like a frightened bird, her body trembled slightly, and she suddenly raised her head, staring at Renly eagerly, "Tell me, will the operation go smoothly? Will Dad be okay? It will definitely be okay. Right? What do you think? Dad is always so strong, no matter how difficult it is, he can get through it, right?？”
“Where is dad? When will Dad enter the operating room? Can I see dad? Renly, can I see dad? Mei Duo said in confusion, "Should I accompany my father into the operating room?" He needs me next to him, doesn't he? He needs me to keep cheering him on, doesn't he? He's going to be fine, right? right！”
Renly didn't know how to answer, even uttering a word became extremely difficult..
“Meadow, do you know why your dad likes surfing so much? Because that was a moment of dialogue with nature, and it was also a moment of challenge to nature. He was never afraid of challenges. The more difficult and dangerous it was, the more he enjoyed it. Now, your dad is facing the biggest challenge in his life. , I think he will fight head-on, what do you think? "Renly knew that he was secretly changing the concept to divert Meadow's attention, but this was the only thing he could do. He could not promise, and he could not deceive..
This is really too difficult, too difficult.
Meadow nodded heavily to show that she understood, but...did she really understand? The eyes that couldn't find the focus were still empty and empty, and he returned to the seat next to him in a daze. However, just as he sat down, he quickly stood up, looking at Renly uneasily and uneasily, and cast a look. Looks for help came.
Renly resisted the torment in his heart, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and showed a comforting smile towards Mei Duo. He walked towards Mei Duo and stood next to her seat. Only then did she let Mei Duo take a moment. Feeling relieved, she timidly sat down again, but she felt that it was extremely cold in the hospital, and her whole body was shivering. She curled up her knees again, hugged them tightly, and stared straight ahead blankly, but with no energy at all. Can't catch it.
Renly is helpless.
Letting out a breath, Renly forced himself to focus, "Nathan, you call Andy now. I won't be able to go to the set today or tomorrow; then, tell him about the reporter's affairs, He may need to inform Lidya. The specific situation will be discussed later after he comes here..”
“Then, remember to call Paul's agent and ask him to contact Paul's parents and siblings and bring them over." After a pause, Renly added, "And Rebecca.”
Meadow's current situation is full of uncertainty, and she still needs her mother's company. Perhaps this is what Meadow needs most urgently. What's more, Renly guessed that Rebecca should also be willing to make a special trip here for Paul..
“In addition, after all these things are done, you go to the supermarket to buy some simple food and drinks. Also, buy a thicker coat for Meadow." Renly's temples were aching, and he couldn't help but frown slightly. The brain's operation speed has slowed down significantly..
He tried to think things through, but the mud in his mind was telling the opposite. He always felt that there were still many things that had not been arranged, but he couldn't sort them out. "By the way, let's find out the police contact information for the car accident. I need to contact him." They are on the phone. Let’s leave it like that for now. Thank you very much.！”
Nathan looked at Renly with worry on his face, but he was a clumsy person and didn't know how to comfort him. He could only look at Renly helplessly..
Renly noticed Nathan's gaze, patted Nathan's shoulder lightly, and said softly, "I'm fine..”
Renly tried to pull the corners of his mouth and show a smile to Nathan to show that he was fine; but he failed. The deep feeling of exhaustion made the corners of his mouth rise before the corners of his mouth could rise, and the smile disappeared in the air. In the end, he could only lightly pat Nathan on the shoulder to convey his emotions..
“I'm fine." He repeated the same words again, trying to convince himself..
After all, Nathan still couldn't say any words of comfort, so he turned around and got busy. Now Renly had to stay in the hospital, and those trivial matters could only be left to him. He needed to arrange things as soon as possible. Only in this way , he can help Renly properly and also help Paul.
Just as he turned around, Nathan's tears fell down like this: Why would something like this happen to Paul? Paul is obviously such a good person, how could he be like this? God is so unfair！
……
After Nathan left, Renly turned around and his eyes fell on Meadow's thin shoulders. Then he sat down diagonally opposite to Meadow and waited quietly..
The passage of time began to become painful, and it seemed that the sound of the minute and second hands moving forward could be vaguely heard, amplifying the sound of every second of rotation to the extreme, completely emptying the brain, and it seemed that there were no thoughts at all. , but it’s still so swollen that I have a splitting headache. I can’t think or relax. I’m just competing with myself..
My physical strength and energy gradually reached the critical point, and the fatigue that settled deep in my soul came over me layer by layer like a tidal wave..
Unknowingly, Mei Duo began to nod off and doze off..
Renly stood up gently and carefully laid Meadow down, trying not to wake her up; then he took off his coat and covered her, hoping that she could relax a little and rest for a while..
I walked back to the corridor and looked towards the operating room at the end. The red light "Under Operation" was still bright..
Renly knew that five or six hours was the norm for brain surgeries, and twenty hours was not uncommon. Paul had only been in for less than two hours now, and there was still a long, long time until the surgery was completed. The work needed to be completed. But he couldn't help but become anxious and bored..
He himself couldn't tell whether it was better for the operation to end quickly or to end slowly..
If it ends quickly, this suffering can be ended as soon as possible, but it does not mean that the result may be bad news.？
If it ends slowly, does that mean something went wrong during the operation, or it was particularly complicated and exceeded expectations?？
Renly took a deep breath and forced himself to exclude all thoughts from his brain, because all his thoughts were now thinking in a negative direction, and there was almost no way to respond positively..
Deep down, he was rejecting all possibilities - because he had tried his best to stop it. He even dragged Paul and Meadow to Iceland. He had escaped a disaster, but in the end, he was back to where he started. , the invisible hand of the god of fate made him feel unprecedented helplessness and powerlessness.
He can't continue to think nonsense, otherwise things will only get worse.
“May I ask Paul Walker’s family?……”
There was a voice behind him. Renly turned around quickly, put his finger on his lips, and made a silent gesture, "Shh." He looked back and saw that Mei Duo was not awakened, so he relaxed. He took the initiative to greet him with a tone of voice, "I am Renly Hall." Renly extended his right hand to express friendship..
The other party seemed to be unable to recover, obviously he did not expect to see Renly here..
Renly didn't mind, and withdrew his right hand, but the other party quickly grabbed Renly's right hand with both hands and shook it hard, "Nice to meet you..." But then he realized that he was inappropriate, "Sorry, sorry. , I don’t mean that, I mean, it’s the first time we meet, it’s a great honor.”
Renly maintained proper etiquette. He did not blame the other party, but he also had no intention of taking the initiative to talk. He nodded politely and distantly. His eyes noticed the other party's uniform, so he took the initiative to bring up the topic, "Are you responsible for handling this matter?" Are there any police officers at the scene of the traffic accident today?？”
“Yes, yes, yes. I am, I am! I came here specifically to report the situation." The other party was also a little embarrassed. He lowered his head and coughed twice to hide his emotions. Then he took a business-like attitude and told the whole story of the incident - at least the investigation so far. clear part.
