Chapter 198
The call was silent for about ten seconds, and this time seemed to be infinitely prolonged. The heavy atmosphere made people almost breathless.
Suddenly, there was a sound of a lighter igniting from the phone, "click" and "squeak".
This sound was particularly clear and abrupt in the silence. Zhang Xing's anxiety became heavier in an instant, like a mountain pressing down again.
Because as far as he knew, the team leader Geng Jianhui had resolutely quit smoking five years ago. Perhaps everything that happened before his eyes was too sudden, and the blow it brought was too heavy and profound, so he had to relapse to get rid of the anxiety in his heart that was almost swallowing him.
Then, Geng Jianhui's slightly tired and heavy response came from the phone: "From the current situation, your judgment is correct. The three coordinates are most likely revealed by the mysterious Lord Heishan with the help of Xu Xian. Their purpose is not to really let us grasp valuable clues, but to make us jump into the fire pit they carefully designed without any defense."
"However, Zhang Xing, you must know that the occurrence of these situations is not your responsibility alone. If we talk about responsibility, I, as the team leader, have the greatest responsibility. But now is not the time for us to divide responsibilities. The top priority is to solve the problem as soon as possible. You should pause the investigation task at hand and go to Linhai Hospital immediately."
Hearing the four words "Linhai Hospital", Zhang Xing instinctively twitched slightly, as if an electric current instantly spread throughout his body.
A bad premonition once again hit his heart like a surging tide, causing his breathing to stagnate. Because the library that Nighthawk and Thorn went to is located in Linhai City.
Zhang Xing could no longer suppress his anxiety, and asked with a trembling voice on the phone: "What happened to Nighthawk and Thorn?"
Geng Jianhui sighed heavily and helplessly on the other end of the phone: "Nighthawk and Thorn were in a serious car accident on the way to the library. Thorn was later hit by a motorcycle and is in a very critical condition. He was sent to Linhai People's Hospital an hour ago. The blood bank of Linhai Hospital is in urgent need of blood. Thorn is type O blood. I remember that it is recorded in your health record that you are also type O blood, so you should go to Linhai People's Hospital first and help donate some blood."
After hearing the news, Zhang Xing felt like he was hit by a bolt from the blue. He felt dizzy and his mind went blank.
The thing he was most worried about happened, and the deep fear and helplessness instantly overwhelmed him.
Geng Jianhui's voice came from the other end of the phone again: "Air, I know you feel extremely guilty now, but I want to emphasize again that this is not your responsibility alone. You must not blindly take all the responsibility on yourself. At this time, you need to be calm and composed. Nighthawk and Thorn are waiting for you to help them. They need you."
Zhang Xing clenched his fists tightly, and used all his strength to forcibly control the uncontrollable sadness in his heart like a surging flood. His teeth were clenched, the muscles on his face were tense, and he nodded heavily.
"Don't worry, team leader, I will go to Linhai Hospital immediately."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Xing returned to the car as fast as a gust of wind.
The car was driving like lightning. In the empty car, Zhang Xing's emotional defense line, which had been tense, finally collapsed completely at this moment and could no longer be controlled.
Two lines of hot tears gushed out uncontrollably, like a surging river that burst its banks, flowing endlessly and surging, falling down in such a shameless manner.
He really hadn't shed tears for too long, so long that he couldn't even remember when he had last cried.
This was at least the first time since he became an adult that he couldn't help crying like this. Those crystal tears seemed to carry all the pain, endless self-blame and deep helplessness in his heart, and each drop was extremely heavy.
When the warm tears slowly passed through the corners of his eyes, Zhang Xing's eyes suddenly felt a sharp pain as if they were stabbed by countless sharp steel needles without any warning.
This piercing pain came so suddenly, without the slightest sign.
Then, his eyes suddenly went dark, and the whole world seemed to be swallowed up by endless darkness in an instant, falling into a terrifying darkness.
The intense pain, coupled with the sudden temporary blindness, caused Zhang Xing to lose effective control of the steering wheel in an instant.
The car began to shake violently, like a wild horse running out of control, rushing towards the steep cliff on the left.
"Bang!"
This hugeThe crash was particularly thrilling on the silent road.
"Ah!"
Zhang Xing let out a terrible cry. At the moment when the car was about to rush down the cliff and smash into pieces, he relied on the last bit of remaining reason and burst out amazing strength. He held the steering wheel tightly and desperately with both hands, and stepped on the brake with his left foot with all his strength.
And at this critical moment of life and death, the pain in his eyes that almost made him collapse finally disappeared slowly like a tide.
Zhang Xing slowly opened his eyes again, his eyes full of fear and relief after surviving the disaster.
He was terrified to find that the car was only about one meter away from the edge of the cliff on the mountain road. He gasped heavily, as if his lungs were about to burst. The cold sweat soaked his back, and his clothes stuck to his body tightly.
The sudden thrilling scene made Zhang Xing breathless, as if he had just experienced a life-and-death battle. His chest was heaving violently, and his forehead was soaked with dense beads of sweat, which kept sliding down his cheeks and dripping onto his trembling hands.
He rubbed his eyeballs vigorously, full of confusion and puzzlement, and couldn't figure out why his eyes suddenly felt such unbearable pain at this critical moment.
But now, time is tight and the situation is critical. Zhang Xing has no extra time to entangle this puzzling problem.
He gritted his teeth, and his firm expression seemed to tell himself not to retreat.
He restarted the engine, and with a roar, he turned the steering wheel, and the car sped out again, continuing to rush towards Linhai City.
An hour later, Zhang Xing finally arrived at Linhai People's Hospital.
He didn't care about stopping, and hurriedly jumped out of the car and ran to the hospital lobby.
After some anxious inquiries, Zhang Xing finally found the medical building where the thorn was.
