Little Blind Girl - Chapter 37
When Ke Congying was carried to the hospital by Ge An, he woke up for a while. He stretched out his hand and pinched Ge An’s arm hard, shouting hoarsely and vaguely, “It’s just a fight! It’s just a fight!”
He shouted over and over again.
Ge An’s eyes turned red when he shouted, and tears almost fell, “I know, Brother Ying, I know, don’t worry, if the police come to ask, I know what to say…”
“Okay…” Ke Congying fainted again.
Ge An went to pay the money, and Su Ruan stood guard at the door of the emergency room. Her hands were covered with bl00d. Ke Congying’s brother next to her was talking to her, but she ignored him and sat alone on the chair shaking.
She was shaking uncontrollably.
The cane in her hand was on the floor, making a thin sound due to her shaking.
Ge An came back after paying the money, took Su Ruan’s arm, and took her to the bathroom to wash the bl00d on her hands.
After the fight with Cao Fu and the others, Ke Congying invited the brothers to have a meal. After finishing the meal, he looked at his watch and said he was going to pick up Su Ruan, so he rode his bicycle.
After a while, Ge An received a call saying that Su Ruan was missing.
They have been eating at the restaurant in front of the school. If Su Ruan comes to school, they will be the first to see her.
But no.
It was the first time that Ge An saw Ke Congying be so crazy. He was grabbing people one by one on the street and asking if he had seen a girl wearing the uniform of No. 2 High School with a soft cloth covering her eyes. When the person said no, he would suddenly shake the person away and find the next person to ask.
He was frightened and irritable, just like the year he graduated from junior high school, when he witnessed his parents quarreling and getting divorced, and the two of them had a heated argument over his custody rights.
He ran away from home in anger, and even pressed Ge An, who came to persuade him, to the ground and beat him half to death.
Ge An couldn’t imagine that if there hadn’t been that ashtray just now, Ke Congying would really… strangle Cao Fu to death.
Ge An found a towel from somewhere, washed it, wrung it out, and handed it to Su Ruan, “The bl00d on your neck is not wiped clean.”
Su Ruan took it with trembling fingers and wiped her neck silently.
Tears fell down her face, and her expression looked desperate and helpless.
Ge An knew she wanted to ask, but didn’t dare to ask.
He took the towel from her hand, washed it, and handed it over again, “Brother Ying is fine. He will come out after the stitches.”
Ge An has always disliked her.
She is blind, so she is pretty.
But it caused a lot of trouble for Ke Congying.
If it hadn’t been for her, Ke Congying wouldn’t have been hit at the back of his head, wouldn’t bleed so much.
He didn’t know how many stitches would be needed yet.
Su Ruan didn’t say anything. After wiping her body and neck clean, she handed the towel in his direction and said with a trembling voice, “Thank you.”
When the two of them went out, the police had already arrived and were looking for someone to question.
Ge An said to Su Ruan, “The police are here, don’t come out in the bathroom. Brother Ying said, we were all fighting, it’s none of your business. Even if the police asked you in the end, you said you didn’t know anything. Are we clear?”
Su Ruan nodded.
The police checked the surveillance camera in the hotel. Coincidentally, the surveillance camera in the hotel had been broken for a month and had not been repaired. The police found nothing. They only found out that it was a fight between students from the No. 2 High School and the gang from the technical school.
They finally went to the hospital again.
After asking them to negotiate the hotel’s compensation, they took them to the police station.
They are all under the age of eighteen, and they are at an age where they like to fight. The police station has a well-established training program for such delinquent teenagers who like to fight.
There are youth psychological counselors and corresponding youth psychological tests. Whenever someone gets into a fight, they have to take a test and then receive education from the psychological counselor before they can be released.
Ge An and others were taken away, and Su Ruan walked step by step from the bathroom to the door of the emergency room, holding the cane.
She walked halfway, paused, groped her way to the safe passage, and kept going up.
Four years ago, she was like this. She kept climbing the stairs until she reached the top floor of the school. She wanted to be the free wind and thought that as long as she jumped down, all the pain would disappear.
But today, before she even reached the top floor, Ke Congying’s voice kept echoing in her mind, and he said it over and over again.
“I’ll take you…”
“Home…”
Su Ruan huddled on the stairs, holding on to the railing and sobbing softly.
