MTL - It’s Colder Today-Chapter 60
As soon as the door was opened, there was smoke. Smokers like Zhang Guangwei feel extremely choking, and the people on the sofa don't seem to feel stuffy in the room at all.
He was lying on the sofa, with a blanket covering his body, a small blue beard appeared on his chin, and a small lock of hair was sticking up.
Zhang Guangwei coughed twice, squinted his eyes and held his breath, walked to the window and opened it.
The moment the curtains were drawn, the people on the sofa closed their eyes immediately, and the sun was dazzling.
A dead moth lay on the window rail, curled up and lying there quietly. The sea breeze comes from the sea and blows into the lounge, taking away the unpleasant smell of smoke in the house.
The person on the sofa lifted the blanket and sat up, reached out and picked up the cigarette box on the coffee table, smoked a cigarette from it, and lit the fire with a lighter.
As soon as Zhang Guangwei opened the window, he turned around and saw him smoking again: "You are not afraid of smoking to death."
Wei Congying blew out a smoke ring: "Can people who are afraid of death participate in the Isle of Man TT?"
Too.
Zhang Guangwei is not good at him.
Wei Congying took a few puffs of cigarettes to relieve his headache: "So what happened?"
Zhang Guangwei thought of the entry materials he had just received: "Mu Kai is here too."
Wei Congying didn't react much, and let out a cry.
Seeing him so calm and breezy, Emperor Zhang Guangwei was not in a hurry with the eunuch: "Just you?"
Wei Congying: "Did he get out of the qualifying round last year? Did he finally apply this year?"
Zhang Guangwei talked about gossip: "I heard that this time I got a wild card."
He said oh again, as if he didn't need any emotion at all: "Oh."
"Don't just stop, think of a way? Take some action."
Wei Congying handed him a cigarette, and seeing that he didn't want it, he threw the cigarette case back on the coffee table: "What's the matter? Do you have a plan to attack him at night? Let's go and unload his racing car?"
"Fair competition." Zhang Guangwei told him not to joke.
Wei Congying shrugged: "Yes, fair competition, so what are you afraid of?"
Having said that, every time Wei Zong should play, as long as there is Mu Kai, he will have an accident. Zhang Guangwei is always a bit superstitious, because this coincidence happened too many times, he now has a headache when he sees Mu Kai and Wei Congying appearing in a match.
"And Mu Kai brought Cheng Ke this time."
Hearing the name Cheng Ge, Wei Congying reacted for a while, but his attitude remained unchanged: "According to what you said, should we also take Lite to walk around in front of Mu Kai?"
Seeing that he was not serious, Zhang Guangwei couldn't help being angry: "Don't make trouble."
Wei Congying's expression was calm, as if he didn't care about anything: "I didn't plan to make trouble, didn't you always be nervous? It's just a Mu Kai, making you look like the Lord of the Underworld telling you that my death is imminent .”
Zhang Guangwei raised his hand to wipe his mouth: "Hey, hey, he's not dead. It's unlucky."
After Wei Zongying smoked his cigarette, he got up and went to the bathroom in the lounge, where he simply took a shower.
After coming out of the bathroom, Li Te also came, holding a bottle of oolong tea, sitting on the desk in the lounge: "Your car is ready."
Wei Cong responded, with drops of water still hanging on his face, he picked up the phone from the sofa and put it in his pocket.
Li Te: "I have also seen your son. The doctor said that the problem is not serious, and he can be taken home in a few days."
It was Wei Zong who answered her, and he picked up the coat that was on the armrest of the sofa, put it on, and went downstairs.
Zhang Guangwei saw that he was about to leave: "Where are you going?"
"Eat." Wei Zongying kept walking.
At last the two men followed.
Wei Congying started the car and drove the two of them away from the depot.
The car is automatic, probably because he is used to driving a car with manual transmission, and he is always used to putting his hand on the gear.
The two randomly found a fast food restaurant.
The experience of studying abroad in high school made Wei Zongying think that New York was enough to be considered a city with poor food, until he came to the UK.
He vowed that if he returned to China one day, he would never touch potatoes or fish for the rest of his life.
There are obviously so many ways to make the main fish, so why did they choose the most unpalatable one among so many delicious ways.
The ice cubes in the paper cup collided with each other, and Wei Zongying squeezed the burger to make sure he could bite it off.
They were sitting on a red leather sofa, and there were English stickers on the large glass window next to them. Opposite was a bar. No one went in and out of the bar, just like the street girls who only appeared at night here, and it was not yet open. .
Zhang Guangwei always felt that his Chinese stomach couldn't take it anymore when he was eating French fries, but this fast food restaurant was the best one he had ever eaten.
With one hand, he held the bruised and painted mobile phone to scan the dynamics.
He doesn't use foreign software very often, but recently he lived here and went to the country to follow the customs and used Instagram. Among the beautiful sisters, Wei Congying's surfing photos shown by a big man are particularly conspicuous.
There is also Lite's message below, and Lite's message is translated using the translation function that comes with the software.
Zhang Guangwei raised his eyebrows: "Good guy, when did the two of you make a private decision for life? Just get married after the game?"
Wei Congying didn't look at it after sending it. He took Zhang Guangwei's cell phone, and after reading Lite's message, he took out his cell phone from his pocket.
Li Te saw that he clicked on Instagram, and then took out her mobile phone. Sure enough, she saw her comment in Wei Zongying's message area: "Why did I send it to you? I said why I sent a message to a man who was going to participate in a beauty pageant a few days ago. The car model sent a message, but I haven’t received a reply until today.”
Refreshing his interface again, she found that her message had been deleted.
"Why did you delete my message?" Lite didn't leave any more, "Isn't it good to create a very popular feeling?"
Wei Congying ignored her, and after deleting the message, he casually put the phone on the table. It happened that the proprietress came over with chicken nuggets and a pizza. The red apron was very clean, but it didn't match her very well, as if she was wearing a child's dress.
It just so happened that someone outside the store was making a promotional poster for the Isle of Man TT. This competition is one of the reasons why the entire Isle of Man is famous all over the world.
The proprietress looked at the promotional posters outside, and asked familiarly if they were here to travel and watch the game?
They didn't tell the truth and nodded.
The proprietress suddenly had a hint of self-mockery on her face: "My nephew will also participate in that competition this year."
"What's your name?" Lite came out of curiosity.
The proprietress waved her hand: "His name is Jeff, and he has signed up for the medical team. He is studying at a medical university in London. He has longed for the Isle of Man TT since he was a child. Now he is almost thirty years old."
Every fan of the Isle of Man TT will have full respect for the personnel of the medical rescue team. When Lite heard this, she crossed herself: "Thanks for their existence."
It takes only an hour to fly from London to the Isle of Man. After Shi Yun got off the plane, he was carrying a suitcase in his hand.
The temperature on the Isle of Man in May and June has not yet come up, and the mobile phone shows that the temperature is only 14 degrees. She was wearing a fleece sweater with a denim jacket over it, she didn't look like a twenty-seven-year-old.
Although it was only fourteen degrees, the weather was fine. The salty sea breeze wafted across the grass. The fog and rain in London did not seem to affect the place. The seagulls circled the coast, as if the sound of the waves was in my ears.
Once in a taxi, she and the driver gave the address Jeff had written her.
That was the home of his aunt and grandma.
During the period when he participated in the Isle of Man TT for Jeff, Shi Yun could live there for free. Jeff's aunt opened a fast food restaurant, and Shi Yun could also eat there.
It's all free and Jeff has taken care of it for her.
The taxi driver looked very old, but the playlist in the taxi was a Grammy-winning playlist.
Talkatively, he asked Shi Yun if he came to see TT on the Isle of Man. After all, the tourists who came here at this time did not do anything else.
Shi Yun looked out the window: "The Isle of Man TT is very famous."
The local racing culture is very strong, and the driver talked to her about the greatness of this race, but Shi Yun didn't get a more enthusiastic response.
Grandma Jeff's house is the most eye-catching on this street. It is a small blue bungalow that stands out against the surrounding white houses.
There are flowers and trees in the yard, which are very well maintained. It's just that it's a waste of such a good piece of land not to grow some vegetables.
Shi Yun paid and got out of the car. She looked around, only to see an old woman lying on a rattan chair in the yard basking in the sun, holding a comb and a wig in her hand.
It was not easy for Shi Yun to find a foreigner in this area.
But in turn, it is really easy for a foreigner to find an Asian with black hair and yellow skin.
The old man on the wicker chair first saw Shi Yun looking around with a note after getting off the car, and immediately put down the comb, put on the combed wig, walked to the gate of the yard with a cane, and asked in English with a little Northern Irish accent. Shi Yun: "Are you Jeff's classmate?"
Shi Yun looked at the old man's wig, and for a moment admired the old man's attitude towards life, which was very delicate.
She bowed towards the old man and said hello: "I am. My name is Shi Yun. I will trouble you during this time."
The old man opened the yard door: "It's okay, it's okay, Jeff has already talked to me on the phone, but we should thank you for helping him solve his urgent problem. This brat's failing this time is also a lesson for him."
The old man asked Shi Yun to call her Grandma Katie, and she cleaned up a well-lit room for Shi Yun. The four-piece suit on the bed was not spread, but it was neatly folded into a quadrilateral and placed on the mattress.
Grandma Katie stood at the door: "I hope you don't feel disgusted, you pack up and rest first, I'll call Jeff's aunt."
The room is not big, and the greenery outside the window is very good. You can still see the sea from the gap between the houses in the back row.
The sun is shining today and the sea is sparkling.
Shi Yun told Jeff the news of his successful arrival, then opened the suitcase, took out all the clothes in the suitcase and hung them in the closet.
Grandma Katie finished calling quickly, and she knocked on Shi Yun's door: "Is there anything else you missed?"
Shi Yun didn't notice it for the time being. When she was looking at her luggage and things around, Grandma Katie asked her to think slowly: "You rest first, Jeff's aunt told us to go to her shop for dinner at five o'clock. You can sleep Take a nap, and I will call you when I leave."
Although it doesn't look like there is any strenuous exercise, the exhaustion of boats and cars consumes more energy than imagined. But Shi Yun didn't take a shower and didn't want to go to bed.
Open the window of the room and look out to the street, where posters for the Isle of Man TT event have been posted.
Shi Yun felt that her fear of driving a racing car had been gradually healed by time, until she saw Grandma Katie sitting in the driver's seat with her crutches at the back of the car.
It's so tough it's unimaginable.
The old lady didn't have the personality to drive a snail car, she stepped on the gas pedal more than Shi Yun.
They came to the fast food restaurant owned by Aunt Jeff.
The old lady's taste is as tough as her driving style, and she likes to eat hamburgers, cola and French fries.
Aunt Jeff was also a very kind person. She told Shi Yun that when she came to open the store tomorrow morning, she happened to be on the way to send Shi Yun to the training gathering place.
In just one hamburger, Shi Yun learned about the family situation of the proprietress of the fast food restaurant in front of him, as well as some personal affairs of Jeff.
Jeff's aunt owns a fast food restaurant, and her husband works in London, and she and her husband support her and her ex-husband's daughter to study fashion design in France.
Jeff's father is a local racing driver on the Isle of Man, and his mother is a very charming Scottish woman. When Jeff was seven years old, his father was buried there when his father turned a corner at the bottom of Bray Hill. Jeff was a child. I lived with my mother in Scotland for a few years, and later sent my child here because of remarriage.
The death of his father did not keep Jeff away from the Isle of Man TT, but inspired him to become an excellent flying doctor and try his best to protect the lives of those drivers.
People here are brought up with a strong racing culture.
They called this event, which Shi Yun regarded as desperate, the greatest and most legendary.
Although the competition is half a month away, the players will still participate in training and qualifying in the first week, and this also requires medical staff like Shi Yun to participate in the rescue work during training.
The next day, Shi Yun found the person in charge, and handed him his resume, certifications in anesthesia and intensive care, and all of Shi Yun's experiences since university.
The person in charge briefly learned about the reasons why Jeff couldn't come from Shi Yun, then got up and stretched out his hand to Shi Yun: "Welcome to join us."
The equipment she used was originally prepared for Jeff, and there was no replacement information in the list of flight doctors that had been prepared.
There are many medical staff participating in this event, some need to race together on liter motorcycles, some are on the ground responsible for the rescue team, and some need to be on standby by helicopter.
Shi Yun's team consisted of two men and two women. It was not the first time for the three of them to participate in the ambulance mission of TT on the Isle of Man.
After learning that Shi Yun was participating in this sport for the first time, the man named John on the opposite side told her not to be nervous: "It's a miracle that she survived the fall at 200 kilometers per hour."
So it is normal that the rescue is not alive.
But it was self-defeating, which made Shi Yun even more nervous.
Every driver needs to sign an agreement before the race, the registration fee is only 8 pounds, and there is no high bonus. Even so, this is still the most glamorous and exciting race of the festival.
The preparations were ready, and Shi Yun could faintly hear the engine coming from a distance. Unlike the excited people around her, she only felt it was difficult to breathe.
The racing car pierced the air and sped past. Today is a calm day, but the surrounding lawns just caused waves from passing cars.
The road surface of the island is not smooth. This is an ordinary road that can be seen everywhere. When encountering an uneven road surface, it is a leap. There are more than 200 bends in the whole journey. After the next bend, it may be a cliff, the wall of a house, or It is the railing of the road. There is no protection zone and buffer zone throughout the entire track like ordinary tracks.
Here, hundreds of drivers have given their lives on this track.
But from a hundred years ago until now, human beings are still chasing souls on this track.
Shi Yun watched the fully armed racing drivers flash past in front of her, she always felt that everyone was very similar to Wei Congying, and it was she who started to pray that he would not be here again.
In the morning, Zhang Guangwei and Li Te went to pick up Wei Zongying, and took Wei Zongying's dog son with him.
The little guy has been receiving drips in the pet hospital for the past few days, and after burning his father a few hundred pounds, he finally regained his former vigor.
The two of them used the spare key to open the house that Wei Congying bought on the Isle of Man. The small white bungalow had a yard in front of it. After being complained by neighbors last month because the yard was not well-beautified, he didn't know when he would make an appointment. It was refurbished by the gardeners and looks great now.
His car is parked in the yard, along with an RV and a mountain bike.
A dog that hasn't been home for days remembers the smell of the house. Before going out, Wei Congying added dog food to the dog bowl, and filled the pet water dispenser with water.
Picking up the jacket that was left on the sofa, he followed the two of them out the door.
He sat in the back row with a lazy posture, occupying most of the back row. The car drove to the starting point of the race, where many huge tents were set up.
They have their own separate rest area with a console inside.
And a car with a number on the front.
- "10".
There is still an hour before the start of the practice. The problem of the swing arm mentioned last time was solved yesterday, but the specific situation depends on the feedback after today's training.
Wei Congying went inside to change his clothes, and when he came out, Li Te was still inspecting the racing car carefully with goggles on. Just as he was about to ask Lite where Zhang Guangwei had gone, the sound of propellers came from his ears.
In tacit understanding, the two began to look at the top of the tent. They couldn't see anything, but they knew it was the air rescue helicopter hovering over the Isle of Man.
After breakfast, he had to start from the staging area.
Driving the car to the starting point, although it was just training, there were still quite a few onlookers.
He has driven the track under his feet many times, and Death has never beaten him.
Although he has broken bones several times, his life is still alive now.
People who have experienced the danger and should have flinched are still active on this track.
After the body has experienced this kind of stimulation, there is no way to arouse that kind of pleasure in him by doing anything. This kind of stimulation has become an addiction.
Putting on the helmet, he saw that Zhang Guangwei and Li Te had already got off the track, stood outside the track and waved to him, Zhang Guangwei's mouth was moving, probably praying again.
Ten seconds before the start of the countdown is the most active time for thinking in the brain, then turn off the accelerator and watch the familiar Bryan Mountain appear in front of you.
All around is the noise of the engine and the wind. It is because I know that no mistake is allowed on this track, so I am nervous all over my body, but when my nerves are tense to a certain extent, I feel the feeling of exile of the soul brought by the speed of 200 hours per hour. There is nothing better than this.
All the cars speeding past in front of Shi Yun were like phantoms, Shi Yun couldn't see them clearly at all, the speed of the cars was too fast.
The whole 60-kilometer track includes urban streets and mountain roads. The onlookers sat on the lawn and on the roof of their own homes.
The track is a circle, and Shi Yun is in the middle. The people in the same group said that one helicopter came today, and two more will come in a few days, and then their group will also board the helicopter.
They were excited when they learned that they could get on the plane, because they could overlook the whole competition from a high place, Shi Yun couldn't get excited at all, his pale face was frightened, but he looked like a person who needed to be rescued.
In a race of less than two hours, it only takes 17 to 18 minutes for more than 60 kilometers.
Shi Yun thought that she and Jeff had watched the Isle of Man TT on TV a few times before, and her psychological quality was not bad, but when she saw a car fall in front of her, she suddenly stopped breathing.
There were vehicles galloping like lightning from behind. The driver's fall did not seem to be serious, and he climbed tremblingly to the side of the road to avoid being hit by the vehicle behind and causing secondary injuries.
Opening the windshield of the helmet, Shi Yun suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the European facial features. Fortunately, it wasn't him, but after thinking about it, no matter who it is, it's pitiful.
Before Shi Yun had time to communicate with him, he had no heartbeat or breathing.
Unbuttoning his racing suit, Shi Yun immediately performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The staff brought the stretcher.
The people in the same group touched his carotid artery and nodded towards Shi Yun: "It works."
The ambulance parked not far away near the starting point was already on standby. After Shi Yun exchanged with the same group of people again, his arms and shoulders were still sore. Watching the lips of the people on the stretcher gradually fade away from cyanosis, he bit his lip and continued to persist. Do CPR.
The staff pushed them and rushed to the ambulance. She knelt on the stretcher and squeezed out what little energy she had left.
She didn't notice the eyes of those riders who had completed their training at the finish line on her.
The ambulance door opened and closed, blocking the scorching sight. Then the driver drove her and the patient to the hospital as fast as possible.
After breathing recovered effectively, Shi Yun checked his eye movement and finally chose to stop CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation). I used the phone in the ambulance to notify the local hospital, and told the doctor on the other end of the phone about the situation of the injured, so that the doctor could judge in advance.
Every time it ended smoothly, Wei Congying began to learn to thank God, but every time he finished thanking God, he felt that he was awesome, so no accident happened.
After parking, he took off his helmet, and Li Te and Zhang Guangwei walked over.
"There is still a problem with the rear rocker arm." Wei Congying got out of the car and handed the car over to them.
Just after I finished speaking, I was patted on the shoulder by a person, a driver with a good relationship. With the helmet on his arm, he didn't seem to crash the car, but the car was not near him.
Karp asked him about his grades, but Wei Congying didn't know, so he asked him instead. Garp sighed: "The cylinder exploded halfway, but fortunately it didn't fall. Shall we have a meal together after the end?"
Wei Congying turned to look at him, and when he was about to answer, a figure in orange clothes appeared in his vision, kneeling on the cart and trying to rescue him.
His eyes were easily attracted by that figure.
is her?
Wei Congying felt that his eyes were dazzled, he seemed to see someone who would not appear here in a trance.
But the back is too similar.
He took a few steps in the direction of the ambulance with his helmet on, not listening to Zhang Guangwei and Garp chattering there. That familiar figure got into the ambulance, and the closed door blocked Wei Congying's view.
"Wei Congying." Zhang Guangwei chased after him, looking at the man who seemed to be bewitched, "What are you doing?"
Zhang Guangwei's voice diverted Wei Congying's attention from the figure that looked like someone from the back, and the ambulance had already left.
Wei Congying looked away, and smiled self-deprecatingly, yes, how could that person appear here.
who is he? She should have read her book in Munich, perhaps she had found a substitute who was more like that man than he was.
Wei Congying stuffed the gloves into the helmet, and started to untie the racing suit: "It's okay, what did you just say?"
"Karp said to wait for us in the parking lot later, Lite said that after dinner she would go to the car factory to solve the problem of the rear rocker arm." Zhang Guangwei repeated to him what he had asked many times just now.
"Okay, let's go to that delicious fast food restaurant before." Wei Congying walked towards the dressing room, "You and Lite go to the parking lot and wait for me, and I'll go change."
Zhang Guangwei responded, and Wei Zongying stopped him when he turned around and was about to leave.
"What's wrong?"
Wei Congying turned his head and looked in the direction of the ambulance leaving: "Help me get a list of medical staff for this competition."
The author has something to say:
Has no one discovered that Xiao Wei's car is an automatic transmission?
