Chapter 14 Escape Plan
Zhang Dadao remembered that he did not have amnesia. Not only that, his memory was much better than that of ordinary people. He did not remember anything about what Old Man Han mentioned, so he naturally thought that the old man was talking nonsense. Anyway, the old man did talk nonsense a lot.
However, it was not without reason that Zhang Dadao was diagnosed as mentally ill. He did not care about this little thing at all, and did not argue with Old Man Han. He just said:
"I want to leave, but I don't know where to go for the moment."
Old Man Han smiled and said, "That's easy. Just think about it slowly after you get out. There's no rush. You've just committed a crime! You probably won't be as free as before. You'll have to wait for some time to leave. When the situation calms down, it will be very convenient for you to leave. Just go out and never come back! It doesn't matter whether you think about it these few days or think about it after you get out. "
Zhang Dadao shook his head and said, "I think it's just the opposite. There's no rush to go anywhere. Thinking about running like this is the right thing to do!"
Zhang Dadao became excited and stood up, saying, "Look at Prison Break, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, and The Shawshank Redemption. It must be difficult for them to escape. Some birds can never be caged, because every feather of theirs is shining with the light of freedom!"
"Are you crazy?" Old Man Han slapped him in disdain. "You are just looking for trouble!"
Zhang Dadao glanced at Old Man Han, touched the place where he was slapped, and retorted: "This is sentiment, sentiment, understand? I say this is not enough! You have to commit some crime first, it's best to lock you up in the sponge room, and then run out! This will show that we are very skilled!"
Old Man Han laughed and said, "Are you stupid? The upper three floors here are more troublesome than prison? You can just leave when you want to? Are you really sick? Do you really think you know the Five Elements Escape Technique?"
Zhang Dadao said dignifiedly, "I do know how to do this! Unfortunately, it is the end of the Dharma era and my cultivation has not recovered yet. And using magic is not a skill. What I need is to rely on the ability of an ordinary person to escape! Wait for me to figure it out?"
Zhang Dadao said this, and started to think as if he was constipated.
After waiting for a while, Zhang Dadao didn't move, so the old man Han slapped him again and cursed, "Think about this unreliable thing slowly. The important thing is not to run away! If you run away, the hospital will definitely look for you. Will the foundation that your family has set up for you also look for you? You have to prepare the things you need when you go out!"
Zhang Dadao was stunned. He had been in the Seventh Courtyard since he was a kid, and he had only heard about things outside. Naturally, he only knew a little bit, and he had no idea what was really needed outside. When Old Man Han saw his look, he knew that he was stupid, so he said, "Look at you, you don't know anything! I'm afraid you can't get far if you go out!"
Zhang Dadao curled his lips and said, "You are so capable, tell me? What do I need to avoid being caught?"
Old Man Han was also stunned for a moment, then he touched his chin and said, "I don't know about other things, but there are a few things for sure. You must spend money when you go out. Nowadays, you can't do anything without money! Do you have money?"
Zhang Dadao nodded and said, "Yes! Don't I have that fund? In addition to paying for treatment, there is also a sum of pocket money that will be deposited into that card every month! I can withdraw it at the hospital entrance. Xiao Su also applied for a treasure for me, which allows me to use money online! I haven't used it much, and there are tens of thousands of dollars!"
Old Man Han sneered twice and said, "Do you believe it? If you dare to use that card, I will know where you are right away."
Zhang Dadao was stunned, thought for a while, then nodded solemnly, and said seriously: "Then I won't leave. I have food and drink in the hospital, but I won't have any money if I go out. I heard that you need a diploma to find a job now, and I don't have one. Won't I starve to death?"
Old Man Han laughed and said, "A job? You wish! How old are you? Do you have an ID? Who would dare to hire you?"
Zhang Dadao spread his hands and said, "Is it so troublesome? Then I'd better not run away. Wait until I get my ID card!" Zhang Dadao seemed to have thrown away a burden and immediately laughed foolishly.
Old Man Han was so angry that he kicked Zhang Dadao, but Zhang Dadao dodged by twisting his hips. He was even more furious and pointed at his nose and cursed: "You useless thing, are you sure? Do you think you can run away after getting your ID card? You can't run away at that time. Send your ID number to the police, and they will even have your photo! It's just right for finding someone!"
Zhang Dadao was shocked and said, "So powerful? Then I should run. But you said it's so powerful, I don't think I can run far!"
Old Man Han said angrily, "I taught you so much, how come you can't remember even one thing you should remember? Have you forgotten the student who came to see me two years ago? The one from Hainan!"
"Eh~" Zhang Dadao waved his hand in disdain, saying, "What student? Isn't he just a former patient? It's called 'applying for a certificate', right? The one you tricked into doing it?"
"Yes, yes!" Old Man Han nodded and said, "He is a professional forger. He got away with it because he was sick. The teacher was afraid that the police would find him and he became depressed. Later I cured him! Why don't you go out and find someone to make a fake ID? That would be convenient. Otherwise, you can't even take the bus! Now everything needs an ID card! You have to find the right person to make a fake ID, the kind that can be checked!"
" Hmm?" Zhang Dadao nodded, knowing that the "certificate" had just left the hospital and had come back to the printing room after seeing Old Man Han! He also remembered something and said, "I heard Su Jinjin say this. It seems that he saw someone being caught with a fake certificate. When I get out, I'll ask someone. I heard that this kind of small advertisement is everywhere!"
Old Man Han nodded and said, "That's about it, but the key is still to have money. Without money, everything is empty talk! You can't get a certificate even if you want to!"
Zhang Dadao clapped his hands cheerfully and said, "Okay, I'll think about how to run first! I'll think about the money later! By the way, what do you think about me running on May Day? It's a holiday, there will be fewer doctors and nurses, and many patients will be taken home."
Old Man Han was stunned, narrowed his eyes and said, "Have you been wanting to run away for a long time? A few days ago, you said you were looking for someone to perform crosstalk on May Day? You are not honest! Have you managed to get that funny host of Tianchao TV?"
This time it was Zhang Dadao's turn to be stunned. He looked confused. After a long while, he said, "Is this true? I wanted to run away a long time ago? No? Forget it, maybe I forgot! Didn't you say you told me to leave? Didn't I forget that too!"
Old Man Han cursed angrily: "Just don't forget it this time!"
Zhang Dadao was about to nod when he heard a clear bird song on the radio. The lunch bell rang. Zhang Dadao turned his head to look at the nurse and doctor who came in from the activity room with a cart, and then turned to talk to Old Man Han. But he found that Old Man Han had disappeared without a trace!
Zhang Dadao shook his head, stretched his muscles, and thought about how to escape. He was also thinking about how to get some money! Suddenly, another idea came to his mind. If he had the mysterious and elusive method of Lao Han, it would be easier to escape.
Old Man Han's words also made him notice something he had not noticed before, that losing money was a serious problem. Zhang Dadao, who was completely concerned about the outside world, had his first understanding of the world outside the hospital. Money is a good thing, the more the better!
