The lights in the room weren't on. When he got closer, Qin Zhi 'ai could see the tiredness lingering between Gu Yusheng's handsome face through the dim light coming in through the window.
Qin Zhi 'ai's anger at him for disappearing for such a long time without leaving a message immediately turned into heartache. However, the words that came out of her mouth still carried a hint of accusation. "Yusheng, where did you go without saying a word?"
Gu Yusheng didn't know how to explain. He stared at her for a while and then asked her, "Are you still feeling unwell?"
Qin Zhi 'ai was a little annoyed that he didn't answer her question, but she still shook her head at him.
Gu Yusheng nodded slightly and didn't say anything. He walked to the changing room and took out a coat. He put it on Qin Zhi 'ai and tidied up her clothes, which were a little messy from sleeping. "Let's go out."
…
The car was headed to the hospital.
Gu Yusheng didn't take Qin Zhi 'ai to the emergency building or the inpatient building. Instead, he took her to the morgue in the innermost part of the hospital.
Qin Zhi 'ai was a little confused about why he took her there. She hesitated for a moment, but she still followed his hand and walked in.
There were three bodies lying in the morgue, covered with white cloth.
Gu Yusheng walked forward and lifted the cloth one by one.
The bodies had all been cleaned, and their facial features were clear. One of them looked particularly familiar to Qin Zhi 'ai.
She didn't say anything but turned her head to look at Gu Yusheng's profile.
Gu Yusheng seemed to know what she was thinking. He stared at the three bodies for a long time before he covered them with white cloth again. He pointed at the three bodies and said, "He was shot in the chest and died on the spot. He was killed by an explosion. One of his arms is missing. There are 18 wounds on his body …"
Qin Zhi 'ai knew that what he had said was not the main point, but she still didn't say anything.
The atmosphere in the morgue was too gloomy. Gu Yusheng held her hand and walked out. When they reached the back of the hospital building, he said, "They were all my comrades. A few months ago, we had a drink together in Beijing. You know what happened that night."
Only then did Qin Zhi 'ai realize why she had found one of the men familiar. On the night she had left Hui Shi, she had been worried about him meeting with his old comrades, so she had gone to the entrance of the Majestic Clubhouse to see him. Across the road, she had seen a few of his comrades in the distance. One of them had been standing next to him, and she had vaguely remembered his face.
"Now, they are lying in there …" Gu Yusheng looked back at the morgue behind him. He held Qin Zhi 'ai's hand and walked out of the hospital. In a very calm tone, he said, "One of them was about to get married like us, but it was earlier than us, only two days later. However, a few days ago, he received an urgent mission. He was supposed to be on his wedding leave, but he still went to the frontline. The wedding was ready, but he was already gone.
"The other one, his wife died of breast cancer a few years ago, leaving behind a six-year-old son with his grandparents. Because he didn't come home often, his son was not close to him at all, except for the fact that he was his father. Oh, he was the only son in his family …"
