Chapter 561: The meaning of family

Lin Rui and Jiang An returned to his hometown, an ordinary town. Like most counties in winter, it is withered and cold. There are many tall buildings and famous cars and beauties on the streets, but the streets of the old city are ruined without dignity. The people here give the impression of frank and lazy, self-defeating like a block.
Lin Rui found his grandfather in the nursing home, but he could only stay away because Lin Rui didn't know what kind of identity he should use to see him. In high-standard nursing homes, the system is very strict. In addition to relatives, visitors need to register their identity. And Lin Rui could not even prove his relatives, nor did he want to leave any traces that would attract attention.
Therefore, he just walked into his grandfather's room alone, leaving Shishi outside.
The old man on the bed was so thin that he was heartbroken. His grandfather was still confused, repeating these broken words that had no connection with each other. He stretched out his hand and wanted to touch the old man's wrinkled face again. But he stretched it halfway and took it back, just helping Grandpa cover the quilt.
He stood in the ward for more than an hour. When I came out, it seemed to be lost.
Jiang Jian supported him and whispered, "How is it?"
Lin Rui shook his head, "He is still in a coma, I want to go to the doctor to ask about the situation."
"Well, I'll accompany you." Jiang An nodded.
Lin Rui pushed open the door of the office and found the doctor in charge. Ask him directly about Grandpa's situation.
"You are talking about Mr. Lin, who are you?" The doctor asked the young men in a strange way.
"Family," Lin Rui whispered, "How is his current situation?"
"To be honest, it's not optimistic." The doctor sighed. "Mr. Lin's health is very poor. He was found to have cancer during the physical examination, plus a variety of chronic diseases of old age. We have thought of many ways. Due to our limited strength, we even helped him to be transferred to the hospital for treatment. But the situation is not the same. Ideally, as a family member, I’m afraid it’s hard to accept. But I can only say that his time is running out. I’m sorry."
"Is there no way?" Lin Rui whispered.
"Tomorrow he will be transferred to the hospital again for chemotherapy. We really tried our best. Even if it is conservatively estimated, his time will not exceed two weeks." The doctor shook his head regretfully. "Maybe you should accompany him more and try to let him go through the last days."
Lin Rui's heart gradually sank. Although he had been prepared before, hearing the news with his own ears still made him a little unbearable. Jiang An's mood was not right, so he patted him on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Lin Rui, let's go out first."
Lin Ruiqiang calmly said goodbye to the doctor, then walked outside and took a deep breath.
Jiang An said, "Don't be sad, at least you are still by his side now."
"You don't understand." Lin Rui shook his head, "You may not know, I originally decided to follow the silver wolf to make him have a better life. From the cold West Siberia to In the hot black Africa, no matter how difficult the situation I encounter, I always feel that there is something supporting me to live. But now, I suddenly feel that this kind of spiritual support is about to collapse. I don't know what to do. How to do?"
"Lin Rui, you need to calm down. Our family will leave us at the end. This is a process and we should learn to adapt. At first, we may not get used to it, but over time we will gradually adapt." Jiangan said helplessly.
"You won't understand. You have been abroad since you were young. Except for your skin color and hair, you are fundamentally an American." Lin Rui shook his head, "You don't understand China, and you don't understand the Chinese heart. No. I will understand how Chinese people understand family."
"I understand, Lin Rui. Chinese people are obsessed with overseas Chinese. No matter where we are and what nationality passport we hold in our arms, we still think of ourselves as a Chinese. There is no one in the world. We value the meaning of family more than we do. But we can’t keep anyone. Children will leave home when they grow up, and old people will gradually die. Life and death are not grief, but normality." Jiang An shook his head, "It depends on how we are. Treat it."
"You know? Just now I was standing in front of my grandfather's bed, and I couldn't even bear to reach out to touch him, because I always felt that my body was full of blood and the smell of gunpowder. I don't think he would like this, he should not like me using it. The hand touched him. Maybe I shouldn't have left two years ago." Lin Rui murmured.
"But you left. You left for him, and now you come back for him. Even with hands, you are still his grandson. Never betray each other, this is the meaning of family." Patted him and said, "Let’s go, and soon those who follow will find us. I don’t think you are willing to bring them here. As for your grandpa, we can come again tomorrow."
Lin Rui nodded, turned and walked out of the nursing home.
In MSS's office, Qin Chuan frowned after receiving the call, "What? Those two people were missing for two hours, and they were back in your sight just now? Are you all eating dry food? Didn't he stay? Did you get your phone number, didn’t you follow it?"
"Team Qin, we were misled. Today they took a taxi out of the hotel, and then they were dropped into the taxi by their mobile phones. We tracked the mobile phone for a half circle in the city and found out. When we got back, they were actually in the hotel. Call the taxi company and find the mobile phone." Some people sent to monitor said helplessly.
"You were discovered again?" Qin Chuan frowned.
"This time we are far away, so there should be none. However, they may go to the city hospital tomorrow." The monitor whispered, "One of our team members heard it when they walked by."
"Hospital?" Qin Chuan frowned, "Are they sick? Or go to a patient? Check that hospital immediately."
"The investigation is already underway. But it is a large hospital, and it may be difficult to investigate systematically without attracting attention."
Qin Chuan sneered, "Do you want me to teach you how to do it? Before the afternoon, I want you to get all the information of all the inpatients and check them one by one to see if there is any connection between them and Lin Rui.
I asked you to monitor, but you didn't do well in monitoring. Let you check the information this time, not even checking the information, right? Transferring an ordinary household registration police from the country would also do something. If you can't do it well, leave as early as possible and leave the ninth bureau. I don't raise idlers here. "
He fell off the phone hard and frowned. "What the are these two boys doing?"
