Wei Ziqi paced around anxiously. Although the doctors and nurses would take some emergency measures for the patient in the ambulance, these measures were only stop - gaps. If any accident occurred on the way, Lin Yao might lose his life.
Yao Mingxuan took two deep breaths, hugged his head and paced around the room twice. Then he gritted his teeth and decided, "I'll drive. You carry Miaomiao to the car. Ruan Ruan and I will carry Uncle Lin into the car. Hurry up. Don't waste any time!"
The two boys split up and rushed downstairs. They carefully put Miaomiao and Lin Yao into the car.
Wei Ziqi sat in the back row, constantly checking on Miaomiao and Lin Yao. Yao Mingxuan tightly grasped the steering wheel and floored the accelerator. Cheng Ruan's face was pale, clearly frightened.
At this critical moment of life and death, no matter how fast the car was going, they didn't feel it. They only had one thought in mind.
Faster, even faster.
They wished they could reach the hospital the next second.
Taking a moment, Wei Ziqi called the ambulance and asked them to wait in a bustling area near the city center.
In the middle of the night, there were no cars on the roads inside and outside the city. They could drive at full speed without major problems. However, the closer they got to the city center, the more traffic there was around the places that were still open at night. By having the ambulance wait halfway, they could save a lot of time.
As he drove, Yao Mingxuan forgot his nervousness. He stared intently at the road, trying every means to drive faster.
Finally, they reached the place where they had agreed to meet the ambulance. The two groups worked together, and the speed was indeed much faster.
The journey that originally took 40 minutes for a round - trip was cut in half.
The doctors were surprised to see a young boy getting out of the driver's seat, but they said nothing. They carried the patients out of the car, put them on stretchers, and let the kids get into the ambulance.
Finally, they arrived at the hospital. Lin Yao was rushed into the operating room for emergency treatment and blood transfusion, while Miaomiao was taken to the intensive care unit for fever reduction and various examinations.
Yao Mingxuan's hands had been shaking since he got out of the car and still hadn't stopped. Cheng Ruan was in a daze, completely at a loss and had lost the ability to think independently. Only Wei Ziqi seemed calm on the surface, but he was actually extremely panicked inside.
In their eyes, Lin Yao was an all - powerful man. He could single - handedly control the economic lifeline of a large city like Nancheng. Whenever Miaomiao had a problem, a single phone call to Lin Yao would solve it perfectly. Their three families had also received a lot of help from Lin Yao and had improved their living standards.
In their hearts, as long as Lin Yao wanted to do something, there was nothing he couldn't achieve.
As for Miaomiao, she was as strong as an ox in their eyes. She was full of energy every day, jumping up and down. She could single - handedly take on a dozen strong men without blinking an eye and quickly solve the problem. Her running, fighting, and memory abilities were beyond the reach of ordinary people.
These two people, who seemed like invincible existences to others, were now hanging by a thread, lying in the intensive care unit and the operating room.
At this moment, the three young boys finally realized how fragile life was.
Looking at the blood on his hands that he accidentally got while trying to stop Lin Yao's bleeding, Cheng Ruan covered his face and cried.
The three of them were really scared.
They were afraid that when the doctor came out again, they would hear bad news.
Whether Miaomiao lost Lin Yao or Lin Yao lost Miaomiao, the other one would go crazy.
They were well aware of this.
Moreover, they couldn't bear to lose Miaomiao.
They waited from nightfall until dawn. Finally, the light in the operating room went out, and the doctor slowly walked out. It happened to be the same doctor who had saved the old man last time.
He recognized Wei Ziqi. After taking off his mask, he showed a tired but reassuring smile, which seemed to indicate a good result.
"The patient has temporarily been out of danger. Fortunately, you sent him here in time. The patient has multiple stab wounds on his body and a blood clot in the back of his head, which was probably caused by a collision. The head injury is the main reason for his coma. We also detected the presence of a narcotic in his blood. I suggest you call the police. Although the patient has temporarily been out of danger, he still needs to be observed. We don't know when he will wake up. Are you his children?"
"He is the father of my classmate," Wei Ziqi said. Hearing that Lin Yao was okay, he finally felt a little relieved.
"Is your classmate the girl with the persistent fever? I remember she and you saved our old professor in the Chinese medicine hospital last time."
"Yes, the nurse just told us that her body temperature has been brought under control, but she still has a fever. We don't know when she will wake up either."
"Then try to contact their other family members. You three kids alone can't take care of these two patients."
After leaving this message, the doctor left. It seemed that he had exerted a great deal of effort during Lin Yao's rescue, and his departing back was full of exhaustion.
Not long after, Lin Yao was wheeled out and transferred to the intensive care unit.
Wei Ziqi took out Miaomiao's phone and looked through the contacts. After looking at the elders in the list, he finally decided to call Uncle Lin Er.
Miaomiao's grandmother was old. If she heard this news, she would surely be stimulated. If something happened to the old lady, it would be a great sin.
Moreover, he remembered that Uncle Lin Er was a policeman himself. He could also tell him about the thief so that Uncle Lin Er could arrest the culprit.
Uncle Lin Er answered the phone and immediately dropped everything he was doing. He rushed to the hospital without even changing out of his police uniform.
Seeing his younger brother and niece lying in the hospital beds, Uncle Lin Er's eyes turned red.
Wei Ziqi composed himself and told Uncle Lin Er in detail everything he had seen and heard.
Uncle Lin Er was so angry that he trembled all over. Whether the attacker was after money or deliberately trying to kill, it was too outrageous.
"I'll ask Miaomiao's second brother to come here later. I'll go and file a case first. Xiao Wei, can you still remember the height, build, and the shape of the eyes of the figure you saw?"
"Yes, I have a good memory. I remember all these."
"Good. Then could you please go with Uncle Lin to make a statement?"
"Sure. It's my duty."
Wei Ziqi readily agreed and followed Uncle Lin Er to the police station. Not long after, Lin Chengshan rushed over.
Lin Chengshan was a sophomore in high school. He was a relatively mature young man and always did things in an orderly manner. Uncle Lin Er knew his son well, so he was very relieved to leave the matter to him.
