Chapter 458 Mother's Expectations
Renxin Hospital is like a merciful angel, quietly located in a corner of City G. Under the night sky, the hospital's white lights shine through the thin mist, emitting a soft and warm halo, as if it is the light of hope specially emitted to protect the dying mother.
The lights not only illuminate every corner of the hospital, but also build a solid line of defense for life in the darkness, giving comfort and strength to the elderly on the hospital beds and all those who are expecting.
Cui Jiani held the steering wheel steadily with both hands and stared intently at the front. Although she was extremely anxious, she still controlled the car calmly and drove into the hospital yard at lightning speed.
When she arrived at the parking space, she skillfully pulled the handbrake, turned off the engine, and unbuckled her seat belt in one smooth motion. She then quickly opened the car door and got out of the car in a hurry.
Mu Xiaoji also got out of the car as quickly as possible. The two of them hurriedly ran towards the hospital lobby with a clear goal in mind, heading straight towards the ward where the old man was.
Cui Jiani rushed all the way and arrived at the door of the ward first. She gently reached out and pushed the door open, her movements so gentle that she was afraid of disturbing the fragile life breath in the ward.
Mu Xiaoji then walked quickly into the ward and staggered straight to the bedside.
Seeing this, Cui Jiani hurriedly moved a chair over and placed it next to Mu Xiaoji, and said softly, "Come, sit down." Her tone was full of concern.
Mu Xiaoji slowly stretched out his hands and carefully held the old man's skinny hands, as if this could give the old man the power of immortality and reunite him with his son after a long separation.
He leaned forward slightly, got close to the old man's ear, and whispered softly: "Old man, I'm back, and Haozi is on his way back. You must cheer up, and you will be able to have a good talk with your son later."
As if he had heard Mu Xiaoji's words, the old man's hand, which was originally resting weakly on the bed, was gently tightened in Mu Xiaoji's palm.
This subtle movement was instantly caught by Mu Xiaoji. He hurriedly lowered his head to look at the hand that was full of traces of time and weathered. A gratified smile quietly filled the corners of his mouth. He knew that the old man was trying hard to respond and waiting for his son to return.
Cui Jiani turned around, walked to the cabinet beside her, and picked up a cup of hot water that had been prepared long ago.
She considerately took out a cotton swab from a box beside her, dipped it lightly in hot water, then walked to the bedside, bent down, and gently moistened the old man's chapped lips.
The movements were gentle and delicate, as if she was protecting a rare treasure. After moistening her lips, Cui Jiani looked at the old man and said softly:
"Mom, can I help you wash up? When Haozi comes back later, you will be more presentable."
The old man slowly opened his eyes. His pupils seemed cloudy due to illness, but the moment he looked at Cui Jiani, a glimmer of light flashed in them.
Her voice was weak but full of gratitude as she said, "Thank you, young lady. Thank you for your help."
Cui Jiani responded with a smile: "It's okay, I'll lift the bed for you." Then she prepared to operate the lifting button beside the bed.
Seeing this, Mu Xiaoji quickly stood up and said, "Let me do it!"
Cui Jiani nodded and turned to walk to the bathroom. After a while, she brought a basin of hot water with both hands and came to the bedside.
First, wring out the towel, then gently wipe the old man's face with gentle and soothing movements, as if to wipe away the fatigue and pain on the old man's face.
After wiping the old man's face, she carefully wiped his hands, then walked to a drawer beside her, opened it, took out a comb, returned to the bedside, and carefully combed the old man's messy hair.
Her eyes were focused and gentle, and every stroke of her hair was filled with respect and care for the elderly.
At this moment, a sudden phone call rang, breaking the original silence in the ward.
Mu Xiaoji quickly reached into his pocket and took out his cell phone, and saw an unfamiliar number on the screen.
His heart moved, and he immediately thought of Jiang Hao's visit to his family. He quickly pressed the answer button and said politely and eagerly: "Hello, hello! Who is this?"
A clear and steady voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, this is the Suburban Detention Center, I am Ren Jifeng."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoji raised his voice and politely responded, "Hello, Director Ren! Is this Jiang Hao?"
Director Ren said cheerfully, “Yes, we are now conducting the final review of his leave-from-prison visit procedures.
It is expected that at 2 o'clock, our police officers will take him to the hospital to meet his mother. Please prepare for the meeting in advance. "
When Mu Xiaoji heard the news, he was so excited that his voice trembled: "That's great, thank you so much, Director Ren!" Just as he finished speaking, he heard a busy tone on the other end of the phone and the call ended.
Mu Xiaoji couldn't suppress his excitement. He turned to face the bed and said to the old man, "Old man, Haozai will come to see you in an hour!"
Hearing this, the old man slowly raised his slightly trembling hand. Seeing this, Mu Xiaoji hurried forward and held the old man's hand again.
The old man's lips trembled slightly, and he murmured in a weak voice: "Thank you, benefactor..."
Outside the suburban detention center, the atmosphere was so heavy that it was hard to breathe. The heavy door opened with a loud bang, breaking the dead silence.
Well-trained police officers were neatly lined up on both sides, their hands tightly gripping their weapons, their bodies straight as pine trees, their eyes sharp as eagles, and they exuded an inviolable majesty.
The escort vehicle drove in slowly, its wheels rolling over the ground, making a dull sound, as if sounding the prelude to this special journey.
The police officers on both sides quickly followed, their steps in unison, like a well-trained military formation. After the car stopped, the police officers skillfully opened the door of the carriage, and Wu Yungang and Han Tiesheng professionally and forcefully grabbed the handcuffed Jiang Hao, and escorted him to the studio, one on each side.
There was a hint of uneasiness and anticipation in Jiang Hao's eyes, and his steps unconsciously quickened to follow the pace of Wu Yungang and Han Tiesheng.
Entering the room, Wu Yungang stepped forward, saluted in a standard manner, and said in a loud voice: "Hello, leader. According to the escort procedure, I am Wu Yungang, and this is Han Tiesheng. I have been ordered to escort Jiang Hao to report here."
Director Ren looked solemn, his eyes revealing professionalism and calmness: "You two have worked hard, strictly followed the regulations throughout the process, and performed well. Jiao Yufeng, Ning Haitao, take him to verify his identity."
Jiao Yufeng and Ning Haitao immediately saluted and responded: "Yes!" They skillfully took Jiang Hao's arm, turned and walked out of the room, and went straight to the next room.
The moment Jiang Hao turned around, he looked at Director Ren with a reluctant and pleading look, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes. Director Ren nodded slightly, as if giving him a signal of reassurance.
In the corridor, other police officers remained on high alert, holding their weapons tightly and glancing around vigilantly, not missing any clues of possible emergency situations.
Their eyes were firm, as if they were guarding an insurmountable line of defense.
In the next room, Jiao Yufeng and Ning Haitao quickly verified Jiang Hao's identity according to the procedures.
They first took photos from all directions, from the front, side, and back, accurately recording his appearance from every angle. Jiang Hao turned his body in coordination, his eyes revealing his understanding of all this.
Next, a thorough full body check is conducted, from hair to soles of feet, with a careful feel and professional inspection of clothing and body parts to ensure that there are no prohibited items.
During the examination, Jiang Hao frowned slightly, and Ning Haitao comforted him softly: "Don't be nervous, it will be fine soon." Jiang Hao nodded slightly.
At the same time, Director Ren, Wu Yungang and Han Tiesheng were in the office area nearby, carefully checking the procedural documents one by one.
They looked focused, their eyes quickly scanned the documents, and the pens in their hands circled and dotted on the documents from time to time.
The three people strictly followed the terms of the handover procedures and carefully checked every piece of information, from Jiang Hao's personal basic information to detailed information related to the case, without missing anything.
After confirming that everything was correct, they signed their names on the handover document on the desk, thus completing the entire rigorous and standardized handover process.
Jiao Yufeng and Ning Haitao, one on the left and one on the right, tightly escorted Jiang Hao in a standard and professional posture, and steadily returned along the corridor and re-entered Director Ren's studio.
The moment they stepped into the room, they stood up straight and shouted in unison: "Report to the leader!
In accordance with the detention center's personnel identity verification and prohibited items screening procedures, Jiang Hao's identity has been fully verified.
After a careful inspection, he did not carry any prohibited items, dangerous items or suspicious items on his body or clothing. I would like to report this to you and ask your leader to instruct us on the next steps. "
Director Ren looked solemn, his eyes quickly swept over the three people, and then he said calmly: "Immediately prepare for the travel route.
Ning Haitao, please contact the traffic police brigade immediately according to the emergency service contact regulations.
Given that Jiang Hao needs to go to Renxin Hospital to perform a special mission, we must ensure the absolute safety and smoothness of the entire trip, and be sure to plan the best route in the shortest time and be ready to go at any time. "
"Yes!" Ning Haitao heard the order and saluted neatly with standard and powerful movements. Then he turned around quickly and ran towards the door with quick and steady steps.
He was fully aware of the importance of this communication and coordination task with the traffic police brigade, which was related to the success or failure of the entire escort and transfer operation.
After leaving the room, Ning Haitao walked quickly towards the communications room, sorting out the key information that needed to be clarified when communicating with the traffic police brigade:
The expected departure time, the number and characteristics of the escort vehicles, the basic information of the escorted persons, the precise location of the destination Renxin Hospital, and various potential factors that may affect the itinerary, etc.
After arriving at the communications room, he quickly picked up the dedicated contact phone and dialed the traffic police brigade's emergency contact line. Thus, a close cross-departmental collaboration began in full swing.
Jiang Hao was waiting quietly at the side, his eyes revealing his anticipation of seeing his mother soon.
