Weird Talker

Chapter 533 The Past

"What’s wrong with you."

Yan Xiao's voice sounded beside the bench.

Qin Manjiang immediately closed the notebook, shook his head and said, "It's nothing."

He looked up at Yan Xiao and asked, "Is his leg okay?"

"Slight fracture, it's okay." Yan Xiao sat down and sat on the bench with Qin Manjiang.

But after he finished speaking, there was a bit of hesitation in his expression.

Qin Manjiang rarely sees Yan Xiao showing such an expression.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

Like Qin Manjiang, Yan Xiao also shook his head: "It's okay, he asked me to let you in."

"Okay," Qin Manjiang got up from the bench, he just took a step, and suddenly turned his head, "We have exchanged the most secret things, if you have confusion and troubles, don't hide it from me."

Under the sun, with the chilly wind blowing, the skirts of Qin Manjiang and Yan Xiao were both moving.

The two stared at each other in silence, Yan Xiao avoided his eyes, with a rare expression of helplessness on his mouth.

"Well, I see."

"Then please leave after listening." Yan Xiao said.

Qin Manjiang sat back on the bench again, staring at Yan Xiao: "Speak."

"It's about Yi Lianhai." Yan Xiao's sudden opening made Qin Manjiang's heart tighten.

He subconsciously thought that Yan Xiao had seen the signature on the back of the notebook just now.

But soon, Yan Xiao continued: "At yesterday's party, after you left, Shen Ke proposed an idea."

He stared at the front, as if looking at the dust in the air: "I am the only one who has a relationship with Yi Lianhai. Now, Yi Lianhai doesn't know that I already know his identity. Shen Shen thinks this is a good idea." Opportunity, trick Yi Lianhai out."

Qin Manjiang's heart moved: "This is indeed an opportunity, so what do you think?"

"I agree," Yan Xiao suddenly lowered his head, staring at the ground in a daze, "I will go to Yuecheng to look for him in the near future."

Yan Xiao's condition was very strange, Qin Manjiang took a deep look at him: "Based on what I know about you, even if Yi Lianhai once saved a patient who died due to your surgical error, you would not trust him so much."

"Yes, so I also concealed one thing." Yan Xiao's voice was very low, and just mentioning this matter caused a drastic change in his mood.

He looked sideways at Qin Manjiang, with suspicion and confusion in his eyes: "I also handed over my father's body to Yi Lianhai."

Yan Xiao's words were astonishing.

Qin Manjiang was startled when he heard this.

"Your father?"

Yan Xiao was silent for a moment, then he whispered, "I have an older brother named Yan Lie who is a firefighter."

Qin Manjiang nodded. He had met the elder brother who knew Yan Xiao well, and it was Yan Lie who led the team to deal with the fire accident in Yang.

"The reason why he chose to become a firefighter is because our father... died in the fire." Yan Xiao's body was trembling slightly.

"It's all because of me...if it wasn't for me..."

From Yan Xiao's intermittent narration, Qin Manjiang finally figured out what happened.

That happened when Yan Xiao was nine years old. He and Yan Lie's father were bedridden at home due to a sudden high fever. The nine-year-old Yan Xiao cooked porridge for his father as taught on TV.

He is very caring and talented, making porridge for the first time looks like a decent one.

After the porridge was ready, he happily brought it to his father. Everything went well... except, he forgot to turn off the fire.

As an older brother, Yan Lie was in the rebellious period of youth at that time, playing games in his bedroom, not caring about everything.

Then, tragedy struck.

The flame continued to burn from noon to evening, until it ignited the kitchen.

The father and son were frightened by a loud explosion, and when they hurried out of the room, the whole living room was already in flames.

The mother just got off work and was stuck on the way home. There was only one patient at home, and a nine-year-old and a 12-year-old child.

The father dragged his weak body and led them across the sea of ​​fire, but his hand was burned off the skin as soon as he put it on the doorknob.

Although Yan Xiao and Yan Lie's father endured the severe pain, they forcibly tried to open the door.

But the high-temperature burning had already deformed the anti-theft door, making it impossible to open at all.

In desperation, the father and son rushed to the balcony, and they could only try to climb down from the balcony.

The huge explosion had already alarmed the neighbors. With the help of the neighbors downstairs, Yan Xiao and Yan Lie were caught and escaped successfully.

But when it was their father's turn...

He was already sick and weak, but when he lifted the two children out of the balcony and lowered them slowly, he exhausted all his strength.

Yan Xiao, who was still young, was so frightened by the hands whose skin was peeled off by the doorknob that he was scalded.

The last thing Yan Xiao heard was his father's apology: "I'm sorry... Dad's hand scared you... Dad is sick and has no strength..."

He didn't even have the strength to get out of the balcony.

The fire was soaring into the sky, and the heat wave was surging.

The moment Yan Xiao was lifted out of the balcony by his father, the only thing in his mind was the phrase "Dad is sick and has no energy".

And then...he was picked up by the neighbor downstairs.

He kept his head up and waited, waiting for his father to climb down, but what he waited for was the deflagration upstairs.

The flames rushed out of the balcony wrapped in black smoke, scaring the neighbors downstairs and their two children to leave quickly.

Time, many years passed quickly.

Perhaps because of a knot in their hearts, Yan Xiao became a doctor, and Yan Lie became a firefighter. The relationship between the two brothers became more and more strange in the eyes of outsiders.

Only the two of them knew that they were always blaming themselves.

Later, firefighters brought out a charred corpse from the fire. The Yan family did not choose to cremate the body, because they did not want their father to be burned by the fire again.

After that incident, Yan Xiao had a thought that he had never thought of in his heart.

Since Yi Lianhai can bring back to life the patient who died due to a failed operation, then... maybe his father can also come back to life?

Many times, once a thought grows, it is like a tarsal maggot, which cannot be shaken off.

Yan Xiao saw with his own eyes that the patient who had died for more than seven days due to his surgical error was "resurrected" by Yi Lianhai.

He thought for a long time...

Finally, he took that step, dug up his father's body, and handed it over to Yi Lianhai.

After listening to Yan Xiao's speech, Qin Manjiang's eyes were filled with shock that could not be concealed.

He knew that Yan Xiao's psychology was a bit distorted. He didn't want anyone to die in front of his eyes, so his permanent prop came into being, and it became an extremely powerful prop that could "lock life for three to 10 minutes".

No matter in reality or in ghost stories, Yan Xiao has saved countless people with his scalpel.

And the root of everything... all came from the fire in childhood.

Qin Manjiang finally understood why Yan Xiao was so struggling to lure Yi Lianhai out.

After all... the hope of his father's survival rested on Yi Lianhai.

However, Qin Manjiang was silent for a long time, he looked at Yan Xiao very seriously, and said:

"You are a doctor. Although it seems unrealistic to say a lot based on our current position, even if a dead person can be resurrected, is he still him?"

Yan Xiao turned her head and looked into Qin Manjiang's eyes.

Qin Manjiang did not evade, but said slowly:

"...I have to tell you, a cruel thing."
