How is the door open?!

What doorbell do you ring when the door is open?

Tao Yaping was confused, and went down a few more stairs with the handrail. After the field of vision widened, I saw Tao Yatong standing in the courtyard with a person in a property uniform, talking something.

Yatong turned her back to the door and didn't see Yaping coming downstairs.

Tao Yaping walked up to her silently and asked, "Hey, are you back?"

This sudden greeting seemed to startle Tao Yatong. Hurriedly turned his face in a panic and replied, "Hmm......? Returned. His expression was a little stunned.

Tao Yaping thought that her reaction was in trouble, so she turned to ask the property staff: "Is there anything wrong with you?"

"Oh, yes. The property staff handed over a stack of paper in his hand and explained: "This is the "Customer Service Satisfaction Questionnaire", and we would like to ask the owners to take a little time to fill it out. This allows us to identify deficiencies in our work so that we can better serve the residents of the community in the future. But just now, this lady said that there is an urgent matter now, and there is no time to fill it. ”

"I'm ...... Would like to take you to the hospital sooner. Tao Yatong hurriedly excused herself.

Yaping understood the ins and outs of the matter, smiled slightly, and said, "It's okay, you fill it in, it's not bad for a few minutes." I just happened to go in and pack up and bring my medical insurance card and medical records. With that, he turned around and went back to the house.

After Tao Yatong filled out the two questionnaires, the property staff left with the form after repeated politeness, and Yaping just came out with her bag. "Let's go. ”

Tao Yatong was stunned for a while, and then gradually reacted, and replied in a daze: "Oh...... Good. Let's go. I...... I change my shoes. Then he went to the entrance and changed out of his slippers.

The sedan quickly drove out of the community.

Tao Yaping sat in the back seat, looking at the driver in front of her, and always felt that she was in a strange mood this morning. He stammered when he spoke, and his eyes were very erratic, looking like he was worried about something. But at the moment, the abdominal pain was unbearable, and she really couldn't spare the energy to carefully ponder the details.

Seeing a doctor in a big hospital is really the most time-consuming. Queue upstairs and downstairs, keep taking numbers and paying fees at various windows, over and over again. If there is no one to help you, it can be very difficult for the patient to operate alone. Fortunately, after Tao Yatong arrived at the hospital, the whole person's state seemed to have become normal. Before and after the saddle, there are no complaints.

By the time the two of them went to the outpatient clinic, took an ultrasound examination, and came to the infusion room with the doctor's list to prepare for injections, it was almost 12 noon.

"This is an antispasmodic, and it has to be dropped very slowly. The nurse expertly inserted the needle into the blood vessel, and slid the small roller on the hose that adjusted the flow rate of the drug very low. "Don't adjust it too fast, it's easy to have accidents. ”

"Got it, thank you. Tao Yaping responded politely, and then glanced up at the potion holder, where there was a large bottle and three small bottles hanging on the shelf. couldn't help but complain: "So much, you have to drip slowly." When is it going to go?"

"6 hours is indispensable. Tao Yatong also complained in a tone of a passer-by, "I was the slowest once, and it took a full 7 and a half hours." ”

"Alas......" Tao Yaping couldn't help but sigh, "Thanks to you today, otherwise...... I don't even know what to do. ”

Tao Yatong glanced at her meaningfully, and did not pick up a few words in a cheesy manner. Instead, he smiled a little, not knowing what was going on in his head.

After a few minutes, she proposed, "I'll go buy something to eat and come back, we've both been hungry since morning." Fasting is not allowed to be injected. ”

"Well, good. Tao Yaping nodded, extremely agreeing: "Actually, I've been hungry for a long time." ”

Ten minutes later, Tao Yatong came back with two packing bowls. When you open it, it is blanched beef powder, one of Yaping's favorite snacks. Just smelling the fragrance, you will feel that the pain on your body has instantly reduced by half. Unfortunately, this practice is very uncommon and is not available everywhere on the streets. But as it happens, there is a hot beef noodle restaurant right in front of this hospital.

Tao Yaping couldn't help but secretly sigh in her heart, it was really convenient to have such a "confidant" by her side. Even if she forgets her instructions in advance, what she brings back must be satisfactory to herself, and she can't be wrong.

The two of them each shared a bowl, picked up the chopsticks and started.

While eating, Tao Yaping suddenly threw out a serious doubt: "You say, is there really no difference between us? Even if there is no difference in biology, will the things we have experienced, our personal habits and preferences, and even our attitudes towards the world be exactly the same?"

Tao Yatong held the bowl, drank some soup, and replied casually: "I don't know." Maybe it's going to be the same. ”

Tao Yaping looked at each other with extremely complicated eyes, and said tangledly: "Then you...... Don't you know all my secrets?"

Tao Yatong stopped eating, looked back at Yaping, and sneered: "Hmph, what secrets can you have?"

Then, she turned her gaze away, as if she remembered for a while, and then said lightly in an indifferent tone: "Your biggest secret is nothing more than when you were in the second year of junior high school, you came home from school one night after self-study, and ...... in the door of your house, at the corner of the stairs on the second and third floors."

She didn't finish her sentence, because she noticed that the listener's face had become very ugly.

That's right, this matter can indeed be regarded as a big secret buried deep in Tao Yaping's heart. She never mentioned it to anyone, never.

That day, she was molested, a strange man in his early twenties. She was only 14 years old at the time.

Children born in the 80s receive almost no sex education until puberty, especially girls. So even if you are 14 years old, you still don't know anything about physiological hygiene. His thinking and cognition are no different from those of a child of a few years old.

Tao Yaping back then didn't even understand what was going on. I just instinctively feel flustered, scared, and feel that I have done something "bad". It wasn't until the footsteps of others could be heard in the building that she was able to escape.

Such an unspeakable thing was brought up again, her face was extremely uncomfortable, and she asked softly in embarrassment: "So say, ...... Have you had ......?"

Tao Yatong obviously didn't have as much ideological baggage as her, and replied indifferently: "Heh, it was more than thirty years ago. ”

Such an open-minded and senseless attitude made Tao Yaping's heart feel a little relieved: "That seems to be ...... Our lives are really the same. ”

Tao Yatong did not pick up.

After a while, Yaping said to herself as if she was a little depressed: "I thought that in the parallel universe, the corresponding individual could have a completely different life. You live like this, and she lives like that. Everyone has their own different circumstances, and they also have their own different wonders, and everyone has a unique life. That's what makes it interesting. If everyone is copied from the same model, they all live the same life, even the details. What's the point of having so many parallel spaces exist in the universe?"

Tao Yatong thought about her words carefully, and did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "When did you become interested in philosophical questions?"

Tao Yaping smiled embarrassedly and replied, "Well, that's it...... After meeting you. ”

Tao Yatong had an indifferent face and said calmly: "The rest of the people may all be the same, but you won't." She paused, "Because you met me, you will definitely live a different life from others in the future." ”

Tao Yaping was a little pleased, and asked directly: "Will it be? How can I really be a different one?"

Tao Yatong looked back at her, smiled meaningfully, and said half-seriously and half-teasingly: "Of course it will." At least, all the other 'Tao Yaping' are going to the hospital alone to see a doctor on this day. But you're not. ”

Tao Yaping smiled slightly.

After most of the day's tossing, she had removed some of her vigilance against this person who had tried to put herself to death several times.

It's really thanks to her today, otherwise I wouldn't know what I would have become. It's nice to have a friend who can predict the future by your side. Perhaps at present, they are not "friends" for the time being. However, Tao Yaping hopes that one day in the future, the two of them can accept each other openly and honestly, and truly become friends and relatives.

It was more than 4 o'clock in the afternoon in a blink of an eye, and Tao Yatong proposed to go home early.

She needs to go back to prepare a meal first, and the most important thing is to pick up the children from school at 5 o'clock. You can't stay up with the patient in the hospital until the end of the infusion.

Tao Yaping also agreed with the decision. After the two bottles of medicine went down, her abdominal pain had been significantly relieved, and she didn't need to be guarded by anyone every step. What's more, tomorrow and the next two days, I will continue to come to the hospital for infusion. The two of them really had to make proper arrangements for their lives during this time.

After the "cousin" left, Tao Yaping leaned back on the chair alone and took a nap. It was close to 7 o'clock in the evening, and all three bottles of medicine were finally dropped. She stretched and tiredly took a taxi home alone.

At that time, Tao Yatong was serving a hot meal to the table, just in time for dinner.

Tao Yaping changed her slippers at the entrance and was about to walk in the direction of the restaurant. Suddenly, when I looked up, I accidentally caught a glimpse of a knife on the cabinet next to the door!

How could there be a knife here?" she walked over with a puzzled look on her face, and slowly picked it up—it was the fruit knife on the kitchen knife holder, which she quickly recognized.

As the saying goes, once you are bitten by a snake, you are afraid of the well rope for ten years. Last time, Yatong almost killed herself with this knife. So when Tao Yaping saw the knife, she couldn't help but be alert like a "frightened bird".

A terrible chill inexplicably grew in her heart. So he subconsciously glanced at Tao Yatong. Unexpectedly, at this time, the other party was standing at the door of the kitchen, staring at himself intently!

In an instant, countless complicated thoughts wandered, impacted, and entwined repeatedly in the intertwined gaze of the two. Both stood dumbfounded, no one making a sound.

You can't expose yourself easily. Tao Yaping thought instinctively. Shock, timidity, and suspicion must be well hidden.

After a while, she suddenly turned her face to her son, and asked in a stiff tone, "Haohao, are you disobedient and playing with a knife?"

Liu Zhehao immediately glared at the innocent big eyes, and replied with a confused expression: "No, I didn't play with the knife." ”

"Uh...... I put that knife there, just about to peel an orange. Tao Yatong came out of the kitchen with a rice bowl and explained casually, "Later...... I thought I wanted to get more plates, so I left them there. I forgot to restore. ”

"Oh, that's right. Tao Yaping smirked, "As long as he's not naughty." Then he turned and went into the kitchen and inserted the dangerous appliance back into the knife holder.
