I can spend money to support him, but they must not disappear in such an unclear way.
The place where Master and Disciple Duan Xu stayed was an express hotel. When I was at the front desk, I said frankly that my friend had lost contact. The front desk clerk did not dare to be rude and took me directly to their room.
Fortunately, the waiter had a universal key card, so he just scanned it and the door opened.
I thought about 10,000 scenarios in my mind, including them leaving without saying goodbye, or dying in the room.
What I didn't expect was that they were actually in the house!
Duan Xu was sitting facing the door. Looking at each other, we were both a little confused.
I took a few steps forward and asked suspiciously, "Why don't you answer the phone?"
"The phone is charging there."
I followed his finger and saw that the bedside table was only a few meters away from him.
I didn’t understand it even more: “Just bring it!”
Duan Xu chuckled: "I'm a little injured, so it's not very convenient."
"injured?"
I lowered my head and took a closer look, and I saw that his trouser legs were indeed a little bloated.
"leg?"
He touched his calf and smiled: "It's okay, just a minor injury."
"It's only been a dozen hours since we separated last night until now."
As I spoke, I knelt down and said, "Let me take a look."
I just squatted down slightly, and his legs immediately retracted.
Such a violent reaction made me a little confused, but after all, his leg was injured and he was not as fast as me, so I still caught him.
I lifted it up casually, and what I saw were two slightly rough wooden boards.
To be precise, it's not rough, it's two logs with bark!
After a moment's hesitation, I put down my trousers and asked with concern: "Broken bone? Where did you get such a serious injury?"
"The lid of the horse gourd at the door was crushed by a car. It was a bit dark when I came back last night. I didn't see it clearly and missed it."
While touching his leg, he smiled bitterly and said, "I don't have the money to go to the hospital, so I can just find a wooden stick and tie it up."
I looked down from the window and saw that their place was close to the city center.
Logically speaking, there would be no such wood with bark.
I took out my cell phone and dialed Xiaomei.
It is really convenient to have such a doctor by my side.
I put down the phone and saw Duan Xu's anxious face.
"Oh, I-I don't need a doctor!"
I adjusted his trouser legs and comforted him: "What are you afraid of? I don't want your money."
"Besides, if the fracture is not treated properly, it can easily lead to disability."
Duan Xu wanted to argue, but I interrupted him with a wave of my hand: "Just wait and see."
After a while, Xiaomei called.
Putting down the phone, I stood up and picked up my coat: "Xiaomei can't be found. I'll go down and pick her up."
Before leaving, I put the key card in my pocket and said, "This way I won't bother you to open the door for me."
I just arrived downstairs and saw Xiaomei getting out of the taxi.
I quickly pulled her aside: "Suppose a person fell into a horse gourd, and the other fell from a height, and the legs were also broken. Can you tell the difference?"
Xiaomei thought about it carefully: "That can only be judged by the degree of injury. The higher the height, the harder the fall will definitely be, but it is not absolute."
"However, falls are usually accompanied by scratches, and they can be distinguished from the scratches."
Xiaomei hesitated for a moment: "If the characteristics are obvious enough, you should be able to tell where it fell."
When I heard this, I immediately laughed.
Xiaomei usually doesn't speak much and has no expression on her face. She looks like a lonely and indifferent wooden person.
But at this juncture, it really had to be her.
I lowered my voice a little lower: "You must help me identify the wound later."
"Who is it? Why are you so nervous?"
"Duan Xu, you met a while ago."
Back at the hotel, Duan Xu was still sitting in his previous position. The moment he saw Xiaomei, he immediately retracted his legs.
Just from this action, I can be sure that Duan Xu has something going on in his heart.
Whether it is an animal or a human, the instinct after being injured is to ask for help, and you will never think of shrinking back!
