Chapter 4 Cold Violence

Embarrassment - Perhaps using such a word to describe the atmosphere between members of a family will look very awkward, but for Zhao Mian, the atmosphere of the family in front of him really makes him unable to find more appropriate adjectives.

The oldest man in the family of four should be the husband of this family. He was biting a cigarette fiercely. Zhao Mian could tell that it was not a cheap type, but he did not ignite it. He just bit the cigarette mouth hard, as if this action could conceal his inner anxiety. He leaned against the wall outside the operating room, looking at his watch constantly. From his clothes, this man should have an extremely decent job. He was wearing a regular and expensive suit, neat tie and shiny leather shoes set off his temperament, and with the obviously carefully-treated hairstyle, if it weren't for the teenager in the operating room, then this man should have gone to a party at a company's senior management or to an invitation from someone he liked.

A slightly younger woman wearing a not-fancy dress, she should be the wife in this family. She had a serious face and her tiny face seemed to tell others how bad she was. In her hands, a Western top hat that didn't look luxurious, but was exquisite in workmanship and would never be low in price has turned into a completely rag, and the broken frame even left a little red mark on her wrist. It doesn't require much eye, and it can be seen at a glance that this woman is not the kind of woman who is willing to stay at home to take care of her husband and children. She has an extremely natural and calm temperament on her body. With this outfit, the identity of this woman must not be that simple.

Apart from the young man who was being rescued in the operating room, the only one left of the four family was the girl squatting in the small gap between the two seats. During this period, it should be her time chatting with her friends at school, but something like this was enough to change her life. I am afraid that this incident would have a huge impact on her - Zhao Mian looked at the girl with her head hanging down and leaning against the cold walls of the hospital without any hesitation. Her beautiful silver hair drooped down to cover her face, but the eyes revealed from the gap were still so unsightly. But no matter what, she had stopped crying and waited for the upcoming verdict in the operating room.

"Hey! Sir! Sir!" A police officer shouted at Zhao Mian, which made him retract his gaze from the family and look at the middle-aged police officer in front of him. Seeing that Zhao Mian had noticed him, the police officer with white hair had already climbed to his temples nodded politely, and then asked, "It's Mr. Zhao Mian, right?" Zhao Mian nodded, "That's right, you just said that the boy rushed to the street and was hit by a truck. Is that right?"

"If there was no error in my eyes at that time, then that's right." Zhao Mian said to the police officer.

"So, thank you very much for your help. Can you please sign here?" The policeman nodded, stuck the neutral pen in his hand on the top of the record board, and handed it to Zhao Mian, "Ah, please rest assured, we are just a necessary step to record and will not have any impact on your life in our country."

"I understand your difficulties very well, and I am very willing to cooperate - is it here?" Zhao Mian picked up a neutral pen, pointed in the form on the record board, and asked. The policeman nodded, and Zhao Mian casually signed his name and handed the record board back.

"Okay, thank you very much for your help, and I also admire you for your helping hand when others are injured. If there is still something to trouble you in the follow-up investigation, we will contact you. Now, you can continue your itinerary." Formalized, the policeman finished saying this to Zhao Mian, and then turned to meet with his partner.

Zhao Mian turned his head and squinted his eyes to look at the family who was still waiting outside the operating room - it was still the same as before, as if one fell to the ground and fell into four round mirrors. Although the four larger pieces could still be used separately, they were no longer as if they were the round mirror. The sharp fracture seemed to tell their respective stories, but those who touched it could only get the overflowing blood - perhaps these edges and corners would sooner or later gradually become the magic of time, which might be a kind of growth, but while growing into a mirror that was independent, the sharp edges and corners had long disappeared, and became the smallest crack.

Family cold violence - Zhao Mian knows what is happening in this family. Family members lack family care, and even have more inexplicable sense of distance than strangers. According to the usual rules, this is roughly the case: a father who holds a key position has very little leisure to various parties and his interpersonal relationships. This is related to his future. He cannot be careless or shirkable, because he also has to bear the tuition for his children. A mother with his own career is almost the same as his father. Under the background of this economic depression, it is not easy to find a place to survive, not to mention that he seems more bloated in this background.

The maintenance and protection of interpersonal relationship chains, perhaps the efforts to make money at the beginning was due to this family, but now - who still remembers the original intention of making money? A daughter who lives in this environment - in a family where both parents work hard for their careers and lack free time to care about their children, the children's physical and mental health will have different consequences due to the parents' words and deeds. I dare not say anything else, Zhao Mian is at least sure - the girl who stuffed herself into the gap between the seats may often fight with others, because the reaction in that moment is not something that a normal junior high school girl can have. Finally, there is a younger brother.

If there is no accident in such a family, I am afraid that the family affection between members will gradually become weak, and through a brief, or even written communication, the custody of the child will become a cold notice without its own decisions - that will be the last ultimatum, announcing the complete breakdown of a family.

But it was precisely at such a moment that an accident happened - perhaps not an accident - the youngest one in this family suffered a car accident, a weak, young life gave everything he could to his family in exchange for a miracle that was just possible.

——And the probability of this miracle being achieved is not low.

Although the three members of the family each had their own things to do, they resolutely gave up their possible future and chose to wait on the corridor outside the operating room. In the cold corridor, the cold incandescent lamps illuminated the figures of the three people and reflected the atmosphere of the family.

However, at least they are still waiting here, waiting for news from their family. Zhao Mian shook his head and withdrew his gaze. This family needs time - whether it is a good ending or a bad ending. However, at least at this moment, let them slowly understand it themselves - to understand the only similarities left in this family.

As for intervening, Zhao Mian turned around and left the cold corridor.
