If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Chapter 78 Dinner
It is already dark outside the window, and the noise downstairs has become quiet. Chicago in the night outside the window is like a Christmas tree with lights, bright and brilliant in the dark.

The incident in the afternoon finally showed signs of subsidence. The follow-up commissioner of the enforcement department completed the finishing work efficiently after arriving at the scene. All witnesses were taken for hypnosis and brainwashing work. Need to give the media another false rumor, this afternoon's riot in the hospital can be perfectly disguised as a 'robbery' case.

As for why some people choose to rob the hospital?
God knows, after all, the murderer has been killed, and the corpse will not get up and speak.

Across the street, Ryder and Gloria are still sorting out the tasks related to the mission in the war conference room. All the freshmen have been sent to the Chicago train station directly to Cassell College. Only the more seriously injured commissioner stayed. Observation is carried out in the hospital. After all, the internal medicine and surgery of North and South Memorial Hospital are also well-known in Chicago.

Even if Lin Nian was one of the people who stayed in the hospital for observation, after taking a CT scan of the brain, it was confirmed that there was no bleeding, but the sequelae of the concussion were more serious, and the injuries to the skin and tendons on his body still needed to be changed, so he simply lay down in the hospital. For a day or two, continue to be a patient with Helena for some time.

Speaking of Helena. Luckily, Helena was not injured. At most, she had some scratches on her skin. It would be fine to put on an OK bandage, but her hands were tightly wrapped by bandages. Some of the sprains were fine. The reason for the coma at that time was probably due to excessive shock and a severe blow to the neck. Other than that, everything was fine.

Helena woke up an hour or two after the incident. At that time, the executive department had sent her back to the ward. The task of comforting the client also fell on Lin Nian. one scene.

"Then what? Then what happened!" Helena in Ward 1201 asked excitedly with her eyes wide and her hands reaching across the gap to reach Lin Nian's bed.

"And then one of the policemen suddenly shot! He shouted a robbery!" Lin Nian compared his right hand to a gun aimed at Helena. Helena was startled, and subconsciously raised her hand to her chest.

"Then everyone hugged their heads and lay on the ground, only the murderer was still running with you." Lin Nian continued: "At this time, one of the heroic policemen jumped up and kicked the murderer's foot socket. ,right here."

Lin Nian bent his knees and pressed his foot sockets: "This move is often used in fighting skills. Attacking the joints can easily cause enemies who are heavier than you to fall to the ground. The murderer immediately fell to the ground with his face on the ground. , almost missed holding the hostage by his waist."

"Then what? Then what?" Helena listened intently, without the slightest sense that she was the hostage on the murderer's waist.

"Then, the other two policemen rushed directly to one and clasped their arms, and the other locked the murderer's throat. The murderer could only raise his hand to surrender." Lin Nian gestured to pinches Helena's neck, but Helena would not flinch. Inevitably leaned over and put it on it, pressed Lin Nian's hand with both hands, stuck out his tongue and said, "The murderer must have been very uncomfortable at that time."

Lin Nian felt the girl's delicate skin and couldn't help pausing for a moment, his face hung helplessly, and he hugged Helena's arms and carried her back to his bed: "Don't fall off."

"Is the murderer subdued like this?" Helena exhaled.

"No, the murderer is dead." Lin Nian said, "He struggled too hard and was suspected of counterattack by the police. He was shot in the head. The body should have been sent to the morgue now."

Helena was stunned for a moment, and Lin Nian smiled: "But now you can rest easy."

"So you know." Helena lay on the pillow and gently touched the back of her white hand.

"I found out later that you had already attacked the murderer before." Lin Niandan said with a smile, "Helena, you are really brave and can do things that others dare not do."

"I just can't help it." Helena sighed softly: "Even if I go home, the other party will find another time to attack. I can't stay out of the house for the rest of my life, so I can only cooperate with the police. Richard, you are implicated because of this, I terribly sorry."

"Did you say this?" Lin Nian touched the gauze on the back of his head, and then looked at the bandage on his body and smiled bitterly: "That's my own bad luck, I was just standing at the door of the toilet, and the murderer pushed me when he came out. , and was then trampled by the onlookers.”

"It's still my fault, if only I didn't think about going downstairs to see the stars."

"It's a good thing to think about it from another angle." Lin Nian shook his head: "Although the situation is very dangerous, at least we killed a serial murder case, right?"

"By the way, what about Carlisle Cape? Is she not injured?" Helena asked curiously.

"No, she should be admitted to the hospital now? On the eleventh floor or the thirteenth floor? I heard that it seems to be right up and down from us."

"That's good, I'll probably blame myself if she gets hurt." Helena patted her chest.

"You're just a victim, how can there be so many responsibilities." Lin Nian said, "No one will hurt you now, so you can rest easy."

"Have you seen Richard who the murderer looks like?" Helena hesitated and asked.

"Didn't you see his face?" Lin Nian was a little surprised.

"The first time it was too dark to see, the second time. I didn't know anything at all and passed out when I heard a gunshot." Helena touched the snow-white neck, and fear inevitably passed in her eyes.

"It looks very scary." Lin Nian recalled: "His face is full of flesh, and at first glance, he is not a good person."

"So beautiful is a good person?" Helena pointed to her face: "I am so beautiful, and I have deceived the feelings of so many boys!"

"One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer." Lin Nian smiled helplessly.

"Speaking of which, why did the murderer strip those girls' faces." Helena lay on the pillow and touched her cheeks and sighed: "So many beautiful girls."

"I heard that serial killings are usually victims who have had childhood shadows at the beginning." Lin Young said: "Because of their defects and serious psychological trauma, they will take revenge to the society and others. Claim what was lost."

"You mean the murderer may be the victim?" Helena didn't understand.

"Psychological deformity, stress trauma, he may be a poor person, but now he is dead." Lin Nian said: "There will always be some reason for people like this to become what they are now."

"Richard is very gentle." Helena looked at Lin Nian: "I still think about the murderer."

"He may also be good, but he chose to be evil. I shouldn't say these words, because I have never known him at all." Lin Nian said, "probably he will not give me a chance to know him. ."

"Looking at how beautiful you are, maybe the murderer will empathize and fall in love with you." Helena burst out laughing.

"Stop talking about that." Lin Nian waved his hand.

"Is Richard going to go back to Brooklyn when he heals this time?" Helena asked.

"Probably. After I go back, I will continue to study in high school." Lin Nian tilted his head and simply played the show to the end.

"Richard must have good grades, right?"

"It's okay, I'm quite confident about the exam." Lin Nian nodded.

"The conditions at home are also good."

"so so."

"Richard, do you know why I like you so much?" Helena looked at Lin Nian and asked with a smile.

"Why?" Lin Nian was puzzled.

"Because sometimes looking at Richard is like looking at a replica of myself." Helena stared at Lin Nian and said seriously.

"Where do we resemble?" Lin Nian asked curiously.

"A lot of places." Helena tilted her head.

"Be specific?"

"I won't tell you." Helena tilted her head and smiled: "Are you hungry? Let's have a big dinner tonight! I'll treat you!"

After all, Helena stood up and clapped her hands full of aura. The lights in the ward suddenly went out, the door opened, and the waiter came in with a cart with two silver plates and a candlestick on it. The shadow fell on the snow-white wall and couldn't help swaying.

"Wow, candlelight dinner." Lin Nian was a little surprised.

"Steak dinner! Chef Alinea specially made it for us! My dad prepared a gift for me to celebrate the conclusion of the FBI case!" Helena motioned for the waiter to push the cart to the middle of the two hospital beds, and uncovered the silver cover. It's a sizzling steak with sauce, finely presented like a work of art, and the tempting aroma quickly fills the room.

"How embarrassing that is."

"I'm so sorry." Helena said, "I heard about it. You were injured because you were in a hurry to save me."

"I can't just watch you being taken away." Lin Nian rubbed his hands, and he always refused to come to the delicious food.

"But a lot of people may die." Helena sat beside the bed and leaned her hands against the temporary dining table made of a cart, supporting her cheeks and looking at Lin Nian through the candlelight.

"I have to go, or more people will die." Lin Young smiled, but he immediately realized that he did nothing in the version of Helena's story, just a passerby who watched the whole process, and immediately added: " I didn't do much to help, though."

"I'm sorry." Helena said suddenly.

"I'm sorry?" Lin Nian rubbed the knife and fork.

"I lied to you before and didn't tell you the fact that I was chased by the murderer. This is very dangerous and unfair to you." Helena smiled.

"If it's worth your apology, there will be more times to be sorry in the future." Lin Nian said jokingly.

"Do you mean to accept my request for a relationship?" Helena also picked up a knife and fork in her hand, tilted her head and showed a beautiful smile, with the silhouette of candlelight reflected in her eyes.

"Eat first!" Lin Nian cleverly avoided this topic.

"Okay, eat!"

"For justice!" Lin Nian raised the knife with a serious face, and Helena was stunned for a moment, then raised the knife to "fight" with him and made a clear voice: "For justice!"

In the candlelight, Lin Nian and Helena were both laughing, and the two intertwined knives reflected the candlelight shining brightly.
