596 magic room

“I'm leaving first. It's a rare weekend, so don't work and relax. By the way, maybe this afternoon, we will go for a ride on the Hudson River. The promise we owed before finally found the opportunity to fulfill it. Nine Month is better than January. If you want to participate, just go to the Pioneer Village..”

Half of the words were said, and the remaining gaps were not filled. Renly changed his shoes, grabbed the skateboard that was thrown behind the shoe rack at the door, and ran out quickly with a cross-shoulder backpack on his back. Matthew replied By the time he got there, the room was already empty, but he had long been used to it and finished the work in hand in an orderly manner..

He walked to the hall, looked at the box of albums placed on the coffee table, raised his hand, picked up one, and looked at it carefully..

This was Renly's handwriting, and Matthew could recognize it at a glance. He browsed the song list on the back carefully. He knew that the songs were arranged in this way for a deep meaning. It was not arranged by the record company for commercial considerations, but according to the blueprint. The arrangement of Li's creative intention, and even the "A-side" and "B-side" of the album, are meaningful. However, Matthew has not heard these songs, so he naturally has no way of judging..

Thinking about this, Matthew unpacked the album in his hand, walked to the desk diagonally in front of the sofa, put the CD into the player, and pressed the play button. Then, he sat on the sofa and listened to the turbulent and clear guitar. The strings sounded, it was "Cleopatra". The light and moving melody, with poetic sadness and regret, burst out with a charming halo among the jubilant musical notes..

From "Cleopatra" to "The Beast", it is the bloody journey on the road of dreams; from "Your Bones" to "A Piece of Nothingness", it is the wanton wildness on the road of life; from Side A to Side B, that is the crazy cry from the depths of a lonely soul.

The man in the memory was wearing a white shirt, riding a bicycle, speeding through the alleys and arch bridges of Cambridge College. The golden sunshine fell on the fluttering clothes, and his bright and gentle smile melted in the April breeze. Slowly, slowly, he opened his arms, and the sound of wind flowed over his arms like gurgling water, and then he opened his wings and flew freely..

His eyes fell on the album cover of "Don Quixote" again, and Matthew couldn't help but fell into deep thought. Perhaps, George and Elizabeth never really understood their children. For him, the important meaning of dreams is not dreams. It does not lie in life itself, but in that this is his soul, which defines the meaning of his existence; perhaps, even he has never truly entered that colorful world..

The fingertips are whirling, and the aftertaste lingers.

Matthew is starting to like this album.

At this moment, at the other end of Manhattan Island, the Mount Sinai Hospital was quiet. The early autumn sunshine was peaceful and quiet, but it did not completely fade away the hustle and bustle of midsummer. There was a hint of joy in the quiet. Renly was flying all the way on his skateboard. , he made an emergency stop at the entrance of the hospital, stepped on the tail of the board lightly with his right foot, grabbed the skateboard in his hand, and walked in with familiarity, saying hello to the familiar faces, and walked towards the destination..

Originally, Renly was going to go directly to Heather. Renly was not a high-profile person, but he knew that Heather had always wanted his album and had asked her at least three times. Now that the album is finally out, he He didn't plan to publicize it. Mount Sinai Hospital had one copy for everyone, but at least he could give one to Heather. He sent it over as soon as possible today..

But when passing by the stairwell, he saw Anne Silliman sitting on the stairs crying, all alone. This made Renly stop involuntarily, carefully opened the trap door of the stairwell, and gently He walked in lightly, "What's wrong? Who bullied the cutest Annie in the world? Come, tell the big devil, and the big devil will definitely punish him on your behalf.".”

Anne raised her head and looked at Renly's fake smile. Her tears turned into a smile. She raised her chubby little hand and wiped the tears from her cheeks, but her mouth still pouted, looking aggrieved..

Renly sat down next to Anne and didn't say much. He just lowered his head and looked at Xiao Nizi seriously. Anne then took the initiative to tell the whole story, "Renly, tell me, is Alex going to die?" Got it？”

Alex? Alex Rich, the little boy with congenital heart disease, the little one who has a crush on Kelly Patton.

Renly couldn't help being stunned. Anne pursed her lips and tears fell again. "If Alex dies, will I be the next one? Am I going to die too?"？”

Those immature children's words made Renly's nose sore. In their world, they began to face life and death very early. This is a subject that many people cannot understand in their lifetime. Life is really too cruel. "Annie, Annie, why did you say something happened to Alex? I didn't hear about it?.”

When he just went upstairs, he met Kelly. Kelly didn't mention anything and seemed to be in a good mood. Renly thought that maybe Annie had gone astray..

Annie raised her tearful eyes and bit her mouth hard to hold back the tears, "But...but...Alex is going to enter that small room...don't everyone be unable to get out after going in? Johnson That's right, and the same is true for Alison..." As she spoke, Annie started to cry, "Alex won't be able to come out either..." She was crying so sadly that her words started to fail. He continued intermittently, "After I go in, I can't get out."？”

Those ignorant words made Renly feel sad for a while. He gently hugged Annie into his arms, raised his hand and patted Annie's shoulder gently. Xiao Nizi buried her head in Renly's chest, Crying heartily, crying wildly, that sad cry made Renly's eyes turn red..

“"Annie, it's not like that." Renly explained softly, "That's the operating room. It's a room full of magic. Doctors will perform magic in it. Some children are very kind and gentle, so they become Angels accompany God; some children are very cheerful and actively face the disease, so they come back again to spread the effects of magic to more people.”

Renly knew that his explanation was lame. He had been a man for two lifetimes, but he was defeated and at a loss when faced with the simplest question from a child..

He didn’t know how to make children understand the issues of life and death, because they should still be at an age where they should be carefree, an age where they should be wild and wanton, or an age where they should be willful. If they miss it, they will never be able to go back. , but now, they are forced to face problems that humans cannot see through in their lifetimes..

Annie was stunned, raised her head, bit her lower lip, tears still hanging on her long eyelashes, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Renly, will Alex come back?"？”

Renly didn't know much about Alex's condition in detail, but he knew that Alex's congenital heart disease had undergone several surgeries but could not be repaired. The best option was to transplant a matching heart. Renly wasn't sure if this was another surgery or if a matching heart had been found..

Faced with Anne's question, Renly could only say, "Since Anne cares so much about Alex, why not just go and ask him? Then tell him to be strong and come out quickly, so that Anne can continue with Alex. Grow up together." Growing up together is a natural thing for many people, but for them, it is an unattainable dream..

Anne did not answer, but thought for a while, "Renly, Anne is very cheerful, and Anne is also very strong. Anne will definitely come back again, right? Grandpa God already has many angels. Without Anne, he will You won't be sad, right?？”

Caught off guard, Renly's eyes turned slightly red. He raised his head in embarrassment, and then laughed deliberately, "Yes, I think so too! Anne is the strongest of all the children I know, and Same as Alex.”

Suddenly, Renly felt a small hand holding his. Lowering his head, he could see Annie's childish face, and a bright smile appeared again, "Renly, let's go together to cheer Alex up." Come on!" Annie stood up and pulled Renly's arm. Renly stood up and the two of them ran towards Alex's ward..

At the door of the ward, Alex's parents were communicating with the doctor. Renly and Annie couldn't help but slow down a little. Alex's mother smiled at Renly. They were all familiar faces. "Come in quickly, Alex's friends are all inside.”

Renly slightly retracted his chin, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Today's surgery?"？”

“Transplant a heart." The gentle and elegant lady showed a happy smile, and her eyes began to turn red after just saying a few words. She quickly raised her right hand, wiped away the tears on her cheeks, and nodded shyly towards Renly. head.

Renly knew that Alex had been waiting for this heart for three years. Three years seemed to be a short period of time, but only by truly experiencing it could one realize how difficult, painful, and torturous it was..

Renly said with a smile, "I hope this is just the beginning of good luck." The good luck will continue as Alex grows up healthily..

Then, Renly and Annie entered the ward together. Alex was sitting on the hospital bed, surrounded by seven or eight friends, chatting and laughing. It was so lively..

Anne got rid of Renly's hand and ran towards Alex, shouting, "Alex, Alex, you must be strong! Then bring the magic back, okay?"？”

Alex didn't know why, but he also shouted along without thinking, "Of course, of course, I will definitely use magic."！”

From the corner of his eyes, he saw Heather standing at the end of the bed. There was a smile on her face, full of hope, but also uncontrollable sadness. Seeing Renly's appearance, Heather nodded and said nothing. His eyes fell on Alex again.

Renly walked forward quickly and raised his right hand high, "Tell me, who is the strongest, most handsome, and most powerful superhero at Mount Sinai Hospital?"！”

“I! I! " Alex raised his right hand with all his strength, and it collided with Renly's right hand in the air. There was a crisp sound, cheerful and vigorous..
