Midorima was wearing a striped hospital gown, holding a book in his left hand, standing at the door with clear eyes.Heizi blinked in embarrassment, and his brain began to work rapidly, hoping to find a suitable reason to explain why he was here.In the end, I had no choice but to cough lightly: "Well... Mr. Lujian is still awake, isn't he going to have surgery tomorrow?"

Midorima never left Heizi's eyes from the beginning to the end, he shook the book in his hand, and said: "I woke up halfway through sleep, the nurse said it's good to read a book to relax."

Heizi looked up at him, and Midorima looked back at him, with no intention of breaking the embarrassment or inviting Heizi into the room, as if he was waiting for Heizi's answer, or just wanted to see Heizi standing stupidly.Heizi silently glanced at the title of the book, hoping to find some topics from the book, but was surprised to find that it was "Norwegian Wood".

Midorima, who had been quietly observing Kuroko's expression, finally couldn't help laughing, but in order to maintain his usual serious image, he concealed it very well.Midorima turned sideways and stepped aside: "Didn't you say that you won't come to see me before the operation is over? Are you here to help me peel apples?"

After speaking, he pushed his glasses habitually.Heizi walked into the ward, and Midori closed the door behind him.There was no one in the ward, and Heizi sat down by the bed, while Luma was only wearing a thin hospital gown, a bit cold, and got back under the covers again.

"...Mr. Midori...why do you keep looking at me?"

"Who else is watching besides you?"

Heizi was right when he thought about it.I ran over in a panic at night before, but after I ran over, I didn't know what to say.It seems that Mr. Lujian felt at ease seeing such a state, and there was nothing to worry about. ——He has always been like this, hasn't he, even on the eve of major surgery, he still has leisure time to read.

"Mr. Lujian, I had a dream just now. I dreamed that you had an accident during the operation, so I still wanted to come and have a look. By the way, I would like to ask you about your phone call today..."

As he said this, Midorima stopped looking at Heizi, but fixed his gaze on the book awkwardly.Heizi tilted his head suspiciously.Why are you suddenly shy?

"Suddenly wanted to call and ask. I haven't waited for... a reply. I thought something happened to you."

"Reply?" Heizi frowned, "What?"

The atmosphere seemed to become cold because of this sentence, Midorima pulled the quilt to her chest, put the other hand under the quilt, and only exposed one hand outside.He lowered his head slightly, as if he was reading the book, but did not speak.Heizi began to search for relevant information quickly, and finally he couldn't help but suddenly realized.

"Ah! I remember I received a text message at night!" He immediately took out his mobile phone to look through the records: "Sorry, I forgot what it was, because it was an unfamiliar number, I..."

Midorima grabbed Heizi's hand and stopped his movement.Heizi raised his head and looked at him puzzled. ...Sure enough, you have surgery tomorrow, so no matter how calm you are today, you will still be nervous, right?

Unexpectedly, the corner of Lvjian's mouth curled into a small arc, but it didn't look happy at all.Heizi's heart sank slowly: "...Did I make you angry?"

Luma nodded, and Heizi heaved a sigh of relief: "That's good."

"Don't read that text message until the operation is over." Midorima looked at Heizi seriously, "Don't read it."

"Then why did Mr. Lujian send it to me? Before the operation."

This sentence left Midorima speechless, and the room fell into silence for a while.Heizi looked at every change in Midorima's expression, and when he couldn't help but want to speak, Midorima took the conversation away from him: "You will know after the operation."

After speaking, he looked at his watch: "It's late, Heizi, you go back first, I'm a little tired."

The eviction order couldn't be more obvious. Midorima looked unhappy, but also seemed relieved.Heizi wanted to ask several times, but finally he closed his mouth silently, nodded, turned and left the ward.

The next morning, Heizi came to the hospital again.When he arrived at the ward, there was no one there, so Heizi hurried to the operating room, just in time to see the nurse pushing the green room into the operating room.

The corridor to the operating room was very long, and Kuroko stood at the entrance, watching Midorima's mother and father following the bed, while Midorima lay motionless on that bed.When entering the operating room, Midorima seemed to move a bit, and Heizi wondered if he saw him.

After the lights in the operating room came on, Heizi opened the phone's inbox and found the text message.

It was very, very quiet in the hallway, and there were signs in English on the walls.Uncle and aunt sat not far from Heizi, but they didn't notice Heizi.Heizi leaned against the wall, lowered his head for a long time, so that when he raised his head, his neck felt sore.The lights in the operating room were still on.Heizi stared at the red English word in a daze, then turned around quietly and left the hospital.

James was waiting for him downstairs in the hospital. After a few days of observation, James said he would take Heizi to special training, and agreed to go to the club with Heizi this afternoon.Heizi was a little absent-minded, and James could see it, but didn't say much.

Until the end of the special training, Heizi did not receive a call.Midorima had previously told him that his aunt would call as soon as the operation was over.Heizi was so anxious that he couldn't even remember the content of the special training in the afternoon.When James sent Heizi home, Heizi was still distracted. He tripped over the steps and fell directly, wiping his face on the ground. A small part of his face was badly injured, which was horrible.

Yasha was so anxious that she insisted on dragging Heizi to the hospital.Heizi clung to the sofa with a frowning expression and was motionless. He didn't want to go to the hospital because he was afraid—although there was no need to be afraid.

The two stalemate until nine o'clock in the evening. When Heizi finally couldn't help but want to call, the phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.Heizi walked back and forth in the living room with gauze covering half of his face.Once a certain idea appeared in his head, that idea kept growing like crazy, and Heizi was about to despair.

When the phone rang, Heizi jumped up and ran over without even looking at who was calling, and just said "Hello, Auntie". The other side was quiet for a while, and Heizi felt that something was wrong, so he asked tentatively, "Are you... ...?"

"Auntie?" The people over there seemed to be amused by this address. When Heizi heard the voice, he was actually relieved and sat down on the sofa.

"Is Xiao Heizi waiting for someone's call? Then I hang up first?"

"Wait a minute," Heizi squeezed the cold sweat in his hands, "Can you chat with me?"

"Xiao Heizi's voice sounded very nervous.... Let me think about it, um... is it Midorima's business?"

One sentence hit Heizi's deathbed, and Heizi's heart twitched again: "...Yes, the person who promised to call me after the operation has not been answered yet."

Kise over there didn't seem to speak either, and the two remained silent with an incredible distance between them.Finally, Kise laughed out loud: "We received a text message from the professor two hours ago, saying that the operation is over."

Heizi was stunned for ten seconds: "Huh?"

"From what I can see, it must be Xiao Heizi who left the wrong number? Maybe he left his own number in Japan?"

Heizi's heart was completely relaxed, and he limp on the sofa, he couldn't help but smile: "...ah, maybe."

"When are you coming back?"

"I don't know." Heizi answered a little absent-mindedly, reaching out to touch the gauze on his face.

Huang Lai's voice suddenly dropped, and said softly, "Little Heizi, do you still remember what you owe us?"

"..."

Seeing that Heizi didn't answer for a long time, Huang Lai said again: "I miss you."

After a pause, he suddenly smiled and said, "Pfft, these hypocritical words make goosebumps rise. Xiao Heizi, please do your best in the United States."

The anger in Heizi's heart was suppressed abruptly by these words.Thinking of Kise's bright smiling face, he couldn't help opening his mouth to ask about the past, but when the words reached his mouth, they stuck again, like a stubborn fishbone.

If you ask, is it equivalent to agreeing?

The two exchanged a few more words, Heizi hung up the phone, and sat on the sofa thinking for a long time.

Why get angry?

Yasha persistently dragged Heizi to the hospital, and Heizi finally stopped pulling the sofa, and followed Yasha to the hospital to have the wound carefully cleaned.After training with James the next day, Heizi stood on the side of the road and sent a text message to Midorima, even though he knew he couldn't see it now.

"Mr. Lujian, I'm sorry, my phone is set to regularly clear text messages, and your text messages can't be found. Can you send it again?"
