Chapter 2: His Countdown
On the way off work, Lu Weibei walked with his head down as usual. From the moment she discovered this superpower, she became sensitive to the life around her. Over time, I have developed the habit of walking with my head down, which can prevent myself from stepping on others, as well as ants and small snails.
This posture is safe, stable and guaranteed, but it is quite tiring to the neck, so when waiting for the lights at the intersection, Lu Weibei had to raise his head and move his shoulders and neck.
The red light in the other direction has just turned green. In the evening rush hour, the car is dry, and the road is chaotic like dumplings.
Lu Weibei silently sighed that the temper of contemporary people is really bad, and with a glance, he saw a strange egg bone rolling onto the non-motorized road, and he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, within a few seconds, a scream came from her lower left, deafening. She looked sideways and saw a child beside her who had stepped off the road and was stumbling towards the Wonder Egg.
When it was too late, an electric car rushed over at high speed. Sharp brakes and whistles sounded, and the little boy froze in place. Seeing that the electric car was about to crash before it had time to brake, Lu Weibei quickly stepped forward, slapped the child's collar, and pulled him back.
Lu Weibei lowered his head and patted all over the child's body, and asked, "Does it hurt anywhere?"
The boy shook his head and cried as if he had reacted.
At this point, the electric car finally braked. The car following it did not expect that the accident crisis was resolved, and the car would stop, brake too late, and hit its rear wheel. As soon as the two cars collided, the other cars behind also had to brake, and the whole road was in chaos, shouting and swearing.
Lu Weibei secretly complained in his heart. She was careless, and she actually made the scene so big, I don't know how many people will be affected by her superpowers in a while.
At this time, the child's parents followed and pushed Lu Weibei aside. first touched the child all over his body, and after finding that it was okay, he slapped the child twice on the buttocks, and then also participated in the scolding war.
Lu Weibei was pushed to the right rear of the child, deaf to the scolding, and only stared at the top of the heads of this group of people.
First, a number appeared above the child's head, gradually rising from 0 to 21961. Seeing this, Lu Wei breathed a sigh of relief. Then there was the man riding the electric car, and the number also appeared above his head, gradually rising from 0 to 17764.
The non-motorized lanes gradually calmed down, and everyone muttered and moved their cars out of the way, and no one had numbers above their heads. Obviously, this turmoil is just an inconsequential episode in their lives.
Don't cause trouble! Lu Wei didn't watch this wave of people leave separately, and completely relieved.
Immediately, she was happy. Killing two birds with one stone, killing two birds with one stone! This made her feel a little proud and look around happily. She secretly wondered to herself, although this superpower was tied, at the critical moment, she could still turn the tide and help the building when it was about to collapse......
She happily continued to move her shoulders and neck, and her eyes even smiled like a small crescent.
The crescent moon froze as she turned her head to the left.
Behind her stood a man, who was very good-looking, tall and large, with a handsome face and sparse eyebrows, and looked upright and kind.
But Lu Wei didn't look at him, but he was so frightened that even his teeth were trembling.
Because the number appeared above the man's head, and kept lowering, from five digits to a pitiful two-digit number, and then to 70.
The man was looking at his phone with his head down, unaware that someone was staring at him, and that the catastrophe was about to happen to him.
Lu Weibei stood two steps away from him, trembling all over. In just a moment, how did she go from a little hero who pulled out a knife to help her to a life-threatening Bai impermanence?
She saved a little boy, but left this strange man with only 70 days left to live!
Her temples thumped, and layers of cold sweat broke out on her back. She kept thinking, "How can I save this innocent man? Do I want to make it clear to him that his life is in danger in 70 days? Will he believe me? If he doesn't believe me, what else can I do? If worshipping Buddha doesn't work? Is it okay to knock him out and hide him in the hotel?"
She didn't know how many times she thought about it at the intersection, until the cold wind blew her and she was a little sobered up from her panic. She hurried to find the man to say something, only to find that the man had long since gone with the crowd, leaving her with only a vague back.
So she had to go home in a hurry first. After entering the door, she didn't even bother to wash her hands, and immediately took out the portraits of Jesus, Buddha, Guanyin, etc. at the bottom of the box and worshiped them one by one, begging them to spare the man's life and let her live.
Throughout the night, Lu Weibei was absent-minded, dizzy, unable to read, and unable to sleep. I finally fell asleep, and was awakened by a terrifying dream of killing people with a knife. She opened her eyes panting, not daring to fall asleep again, so she stared at the ceiling.
Little by little, the light leaked through the cracks in the curtains, and she became more and more afraid. She felt that the sun was a talisman, and was chasing her and the man quickly and cruelly.
She could no longer lie down, so she got up tremblingly, and once again turned out the portraits of various gods and Buddhas, and knelt down in front of them and chanted the words.
After kneeling for a while, she gradually calmed down and carefully considered how to remedy it. She guessed that the man was on his way home from work yesterday, so he would have walked the same road when he went to work in the morning. So she got up from the ground in a hurry, scrambled to hide the portraits, and took a taxi to the intersection of yesterday's road, where she was ready to try her luck.
It's already early autumn, and the morning sun is already hard to fight the cold. Lu Weibei stood at the crossroads hungry until he was shivering, scolding himself for being a fool over and over again in his heart, but he kept muttering and begging for the blessing of the gods from all walks of life. When she was almost delirious, the man finally appeared.
Lu Weibei was instantly ecstatic, taking advantage of the opportunity of the red light, he quickly jumped to a little behind the man, and then ...... Be rendered speechless.
She has worked hard to live as a transparent person for more than 20 years, adhering to the principle of never doing more if she can do less, and she has not learned any conversation skills. Poor books are hated when they are used, and she can't say a word now.
So she could only follow the man diagonally all the way to give herself a draft, from "Hey, please take care of us for the first time" to "Today's weather is rare and good". Seeing that the man had been transferred to the Third Hospital next door to her company, and the risk of her being late for work was getting higher and higher, she clenched her fists and pressed her determination, took two quick steps and prepared to speak directly.
Then she slammed into the man's back.
That man had actually discovered Lu Weibie earlier. When he crossed the street, he always felt a little uncomfortable, as if someone was watching him. As he turned a corner in the alley, he glanced in the mirror and sure enough, he saw a woman following him. He thought all the way, made sure that he had no impression of this woman, and he didn't want to be followed so inexplicably, so he simply stopped, ready to turn around and ask for clarification.
As a result, as soon as he stopped, Lu Weibie, who was accelerating, bumped into him. The man's back hurt when he was hit, and when he turned his face, he couldn't even make a calm expression, and his brow was furrowed.
Lu Weibi's brain has always been short-circuited when dealing with interpersonal relationships. She didn't think to question why the man had stopped inappropriately in the unobstructed hallway, but was full of joy that she finally had the perfect conversation start, "I'm sorry to bump into you, are you okay?" ”
It's a pity that before she could open her mouth, the other party had already spoken, "Why do you keep following me?"
This question was a bit beyond Lu Wei's plan, and she didn't have an answer ready for it. After a closer look, the man in front of her looked quite unkind, which made her even more flustered, and she could only subconsciously pick a sentence from the prepared corpus, "The weather is rare and good today." ”
With a snort, a restrained male laugh came from Lu Weibie's left front. And the iceberg in front of her didn't say a word, and her brows furrowed even tighter.
Lu Weibei instantly became even more nervous. She suspects that if she doesn't open her mouth to save herself, the next second the iceberg will "kindly" point her to the psychiatric registration window, or call the police directly and throw her into prison.
"Your coat looks beautiful in the sun, what brand? Can you tell me? I want to buy one for my dad. Fortunately, her intelligence was in danger, and she quickly found an excuse, which was barely usable, albeit nondescript.
"Hahaha, Huo Yi, Huo Yi, your clothing has finally become a benchmark for middle-aged and elderly people!Congratulations, congratulations!" The source of the laughter just now quickly approached, and patted the shoulder of the iceberg man who only had sixty-nine days left to live.
Huo Yi didn't pay attention to the man who couldn't straighten his waist with a smile, and stared at Lu Weibei for a while, obviously not believing this lame excuse.
Lu Wei was furious by him, and unconsciously shrunk his neck. In an instant, I thought that the mission must not be cowardly at the moment, so I had to clench my fists and look back with my head held high.
Huo Yi saw that she was so reasonable, but he felt that he was a little suspicious. He has a lot of contact with people in his daily work, and he knows that there are indeed all kinds of people and all kinds of stories in this world, and it is not impossible to be more unbelievable than the girl in front of him. What's more, although this woman followed him all the way, she did not do anything to hurt him intentionally, so he really had no reason to completely regard this woman as a liar.
So his brows relaxed, trying to make himself look as pleasant as possible, "G&E, you can buy it on Taobao." If you want to try it, you can buy it at the nearby Yuexi Shopping Center. If nothing else, I'm going to go to work first. ”
Lu Weibei smiled when he heard it first, and felt full of joy that the excuse worked, and victory was expected. When she heard Huo Yi say that he was going to work, she immediately became nervous again.
The boiled duck can't fly!, she immediately asked, "What...... I'm afraid of what problems I will encounter when buying clothes......
Huo Yi's forehead twitched, and his brows furrowed again. Is this woman rude or has ulterior motives for asking for WeChat from a stranger?
"Sorry, WeChat is a private contact method, which is not very convenient. Huo Yi bowed slightly, and didn't wait for Lu Wei to answer, turned around and left.
Lu Wei didn't want to chase but didn't dare to chase, so he could only stand in place and feel distressed by his stupid way of accosting him.
"Don't worry, I'll give you my WeChat. I am his best friend, my name is Qin Li, Qin Shi Huang's Qin, standing up to the sky and the earth. If you find me, you can find him!" The man who had laughed at Huo Yi just now smiled and walked to Lu Weibie's side with square steps.
Lu Wei didn't look at Qin Li, he was quite kind, with a round face, obviously not fat, but his facial features were not angular.
She had a judgment in her heart, so she hurriedly nodded and took out her mobile phone.
Qin Li scanned her QR code with a smile, "Don't worry, don't you just like him? You will definitely be able to catch up! Moreover, I will give you exclusive information, and no one but you will chase him at all. You definitely have a first-mover advantage!"
This is a big misunderstanding! How can it be good to be regarded as a crazy suitor or stalker? Lu Weibei hurriedly explained, "I didn't want to chase him! I did just meet him on the road and ...... Then ......"
Qin Li looked at her for a long time.
She was sweating in a hurry. In fact, she didn't know how to explain it, because she was indeed here to follow today. She couldn't hold back for a long time, so she simply gritted her teeth, "Anyway...... All in all, I don't like it!"
Qin Li immediately made an expression of sudden realization, "Ah! So you don't like him! I know! I know, I know, I know, I have to hurry up to work, I'll get back to contact!"
He said as he trotted deeper into the hallway. Halfway through the run, he suddenly stopped and turned around to give her a cheering gesture.
Lu Weibei couldn't cry or laugh suddenly.
