Chapter 34 2-7
"Daughter, we have locked down the city. You should know everything you read the news, but don't worry, your father and I made enough preparations before the New Year. There are a lot of New Year's goods and rice and flour at home. Your uncle also sent several boxes of them before, all of which you like. I thought you were going home, and now it's enough for your father and I to eat for a long time. Daughter, you are alone outside, be careful! Remember to wear a mask, wash your hands frequently, and be hygienic..."
Did Ms. Lan forgot that her daughter is a nurse? She also asked her to teach her how to protect her daughter?
But Tao Ran did not interrupt her. Ms. Ren Lan nagged and just nodded and responded.
The city has been closed.
The people she loved the most were in that city.
She didn't know what was going on there now. In the news, the once prosperous nine provinces were left with only empty cities. The people she loved, the people she knew and the people she didn't know were hidden in those steel and concrete buildings. Life became numbers in the news. She didn't know if every extra one was her relatives, friends, classmates, or neighbors who teased her when she was young.
However, those numbers are always someone’s relatives, classmates, and neighbors.
When she thought she could only look at the city from afar, news came from the hospital: Immediately form a medical team and set out to help Hubei.
She signed up without hesitation, but she did not tell her parents about the news.
Xiaodou also signed up, and their entire respiratory and critical illness were responding.
Just as she was preparing to return to Wuhan, she was shocked to find that she was not on the list of aid to Hubei!
Why?
She went to ask the head nurse.
The head nurse said she was too young.
Tao Ran felt something was wrong, "Xiaodou is younger than me! This is not a reason! Is it because I am not good enough?"
"No..." The head nurse had to tell the truth, "It seems that Director Su won't let you go."
"Why?" Tao Ran suddenly became anxious, "No one else is here with us! Do you still have to take care of the situation? No, I'll ask the director to tell me!"
"Taoran." The head nurse called her.
Tao Ran turned around, and a faint mist that she couldn't understand rose in the head nurse's eyes.
"Taoran, Director Su's mother, had participated in the fight against SARS...unfortunately infected...sacrificed..."
Time stopped for a second, and then, like a thin lightning breaking into the quiet night sky, thundering, thundering, and endlessly overwhelming.
A picture appeared in Tao Ran's mind: a white lilac tree, a lonely and desolate figure of a man, an obsidian-like eyes, bright wet marks...
The thunderous roar gradually faded away, and the sharp and thin stinging pain spread from the bottom of my heart.
The light in Tao Ran's eyes gradually gathered back, "I'll tell the director!" It was hard and decisive.
Nurse Mei looked at the girl's back as she quickly left, and turned her head, and her eyes flashed brightly.
Director Zhou looked at the girl in front of him who kept saying that she was going, but her attitude was so hard that she felt like a little walnut.
"Director Zhou, that is my hometown! My parents, relatives, and friends are all fighting there! The soil and water of my hometown have raised me and grown up! Now is the time for me to repay, and I have a reason to pass by more than anyone else! Director Zhou, please agree to me!"
Promise me and let me go to him! He has been losing! Lost one after another! This time, let me fight side by side with him! Let me protect him! Protect my hometown!
Tao Ran saw the helplessness in Director Zhou's eyes gradually softening, and she knew that her wish was about to be fulfilled.
"Xiao Tao, do you know what this means?"
"I know!" Tao Ran stood straight and said loudly.
"Xiao Tao, aren't you afraid?"
