Chapter 2: Lin Jiaming

Three years ago, University A in X City.

"Brother, keep in touch in the future!"

"Keep in touch, I'll miss you all!"

"Dry ......"

It's graduation season again. The university campus is full of parting sadness and uncertainty about the unknown future. In fact, many people know that from the moment they are notified by the dormitory manager to move out of the dormitory within a deadline, the university really enters the countdown. A dormitory friend made an appointment to get together for the last time before graduation, after all, I don't know when the next time we get together. The years have passed, and the heavens are separated. Under the cherry blossom trees and in the corridor of Wenyuan, the little couples told about their sorrows, and her boyfriend wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes from time to time for her in his arms, and then continued to hug each other, and the big hands gently stroked her hair, as if this was the most effective way to comfort her in parting.

At the back entrance of the school, there is a shopping street dedicated to university students, mainly restaurants. It can be said that it is the university students who support these shops around the university. In various restaurants, the owner and waiter are busy shuttling between the tables, sometimes ordering, sometimes holding a case of cold beer, and sometimes beckoning the waiter to clean up the messy table.

Lin Jiaming was walking alone on the street, and he had just sent off his roommate Dazhu. Now, he's the last person to walk in the dormitory. Suddenly, his heart was full of mixed feelings. After all, four years of friendship is not such a short time to calm down the sadness of parting. Thinking of the last party last night, everyone drank upside down, hugged each other, blessed each other, and finally everyone secretly cried, Lin Jiaming's nose was sour again.

"Forget it, I don't want to! I wish you all a bright future!" Lin Jiaming thought to himself. As soon as I walked to the back door, the phone rang and I remembered.

"Hey, Mom!"

"Son, how is your work?"

"I've signed it, and I can go to work the day after tomorrow. It's a small company, 3500 a month. ”

"What your dad and I mean, I don't want you to wander alone in a foreign country. No, come to us, the family is together, what can I take care of you. Lin Jiaming's parents are ordinary farmers, who left their hometown and went to a coastal city, and relied on sweat to provide for him as a college student, so they felt very sorry for him. Moreover, Lin Jiaming has followed his grandparents since he was a child, and he has spent very little time with his parents, and Lin Jiaming's parents feel that they owe him a lot.

"I want to break it out by myself, you leave me alone. Don't worry, I'll take care of myself, and besides, I've already signed it, so I can't go. Mom, I won't tell you, I'll contact you when I find a place to live. I'll go back to the dormitory first! Pay attention to your body, that's all. ”

"This kid, why are you so tough~"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Jiaming felt even more uncomfortable, and next, he was going to wander alone in this city. He is a person with a strong sense of locality, and it took a whole semester to get used to it when he first came to X City to go to college. He was afraid that he would fail, that he would be lost here. But since he chose, fear didn't play a role, it only made him more cowardly, and he always thought so.

Rush all the way back to the dormitory. Looking at the deserted dormitory and empty beds, it seems that time has suddenly transitioned from midsummer to cold winter. Lin Jiaming was on the bed, and his mobile phone was still on the side. At the moment, he just wants to empty himself and think about nothing. As time passed, Lin Jiaming's consciousness gradually blurred.

"I'm leaving~ You take good care of yourself. ”

"Have you decided? Where are you going?"

"City G, train on the night of the 18th!"

"Oh, then I wish you all the best. Be careful on your own road, I won't send you......"

"...... later"

"Alright. That's it! ”

Lin Jiaming turned around and didn't look back. The street scene also began to blur the moment the line of sight left her. Suddenly, the wind blew and tore at his clothes, trying to push him back, and he stubbornly fought against this evil wind. Suddenly something hit him in the face......

It turned out to be another dream, Lin Jiaming woke up slowly, reached out and took off the clothes on his face. The wind is blowing, and in the summer of X City, once the showers come, it must be accompanied by strong winds. got up and got dressed, Lin Jiaming went to the bathroom to wash his face. Looking at the red eyes in the mirror, a helpless smile appeared on his face.

The next day, Lin Jiaming rented a car, loaded his luggage, and left the school. Looking at the school gate of A University in the rearview mirror, Lin Jiaming said "goodbye" in his heart, and then increased the throttle and left. He was going to get in touch with the rented place, an urban village, located on the edge of the city of X. It's far from the city center and the rent is cheap. The company is not far from here, probably because the office building here has just been developed, and the rent is cheap.

After tidying up his room, it was already 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and Lin Jiaming was already hungry with his chest pressed against his back. Hurry downstairs and find a place to eat. However, the village is already facing demolition, many people have moved away, and most of those who remain are employees of nearby companies who live here, and there is no place to solve the problem of food. After walking a long way, Lin Jiaming saw a small shop. I bought a bunch of bread, a few buckets of instant noodles, and a bag of ham sausages and went back to the house. Fortunately, when I was in college, I brought a kettle that I bought secretly, otherwise I would have to eat dry noodles and bread. Boiling water, Lin Jiaming was really hungry and panicked, so he opened a bread to eat. After chewing a few bites, I felt that the taste was wrong, sour, and when I looked at the date, it was half a month overdue. Lin Jiaming hurriedly spit out the bread in his mouth and threw it into the trash. The rest of the bread was looked at one by one, and it was at least half a month old. I wanted to go to the small shop to find the owner to theorize, but I was too hungry to go that far.

After checking the dates of the instant noodles and ham and making sure that there was no problem, Lin Jiaming opened a bucket of instant noodles and poured in freshly boiled water. As soon as the lid was changed, the phone rang.

"Hey~"

"Hey, Jiaming, where is it?"

"In a rented house. Where did you die? Today I moved things and wanted to ask you for help, but the phone couldn't get through!" Lin Jiaming was not angry. This hair is small, his real name is Gu Kai, and Lin Jiaming have played together since childhood, went to school together, and graduated together, Lin Jiaming has always called him Kaizi.

"Brother, I'm going to help Xiaojie move things today......" Kaizi was silent for a moment. Xiaojie is Gu Kai's girlfriend.

"Don't talk about this, there's an event in the evening, organized by Xiaojie. Let's have fun together, there are surprises!" Kaizi's evil laughter on the phone made Lin Jiaming get goosebumps.

"No, I'm going to report to the company tomorrow. ”

"I said, Jiaming, don't mind, Xiaojie specially organized it for you. I'll tell you, I promised Xiaojie that you will definitely come. If you don't come, brother, I'll have to sleep on the overpass at night!"

"You deserve it, who made you blind to promise. No matter!" Lin Jiaming felt that this little hair was really funny and angry.

"Brother, that's it, I'll hang up first~ Hey, hey~ How do you get it, lighter, don't break it for me, it's still useful at night." Lin Jiaming didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Gu Kai's gourd. I always feel like I've forgotten something.

"I'm going to go, it's over~" Lin Jiaming blurted out, quickly opened the lid of the instant noodles, and looked at the bucket of soaked instant noodles, really feeling a little crying without tears.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, Lin Jiaming appeared at the door of the agreed bar on time.

"Jiaming, here and here~" Gu Kai shouted from the window.

Lin Jiaming walked in and found that this was a music bar, with simple but stylish decoration, with several oil paintings of coastal scenery hanging on the light blue wall, and the tables and chairs were a bit beach-style. This kind of decoration may seem unusual in a bar, but it is not out of place.

After saying hello to Gu Kai and Xiaojie, Lin Jiaming found that there was a girl beside Xiaojie who had never seen before. After politely greeting, Lin Jiaming sat next to Gu Kai.

"Jiaming ~ come to a song" Kaizi smiled evilly.

"Brother Ming knows how to play a musical instrument?" Xiao Jie's eyes were full of disbelief.

"What is this called, he slipped away when he played the drums!When he was in college, he fascinated many students~"

"Forget it, I'm tired of moving today!Next time!" Lin Jiaming really didn't want to perform on this occasion. Besides, moving today is really tiring.

"Brother Ming, let's have a song, come on!" Xiao Jie said and got up to drag Lin Jiaming.

"Hello, please put on "Tic Tok"!" Kaiko also ordered the song to accompaniment.

Lin Jiaming had no choice but to go on stage.

The drum stick was in Lin Jiaming's hand, constantly beating the drum surface with the rhythm of the song, and the few customers in the bar also swayed to the rhythm. This is the case with music bars, where customers seem to have a tacit understanding of the music, and as soon as the rhythm is played, the body will move involuntarily.

As the music enters the climax, the drum stick in Lin Jiaming's hand quickly switches between the tom drum and the strong cymbal. This song is his favorite and the one he plays the most.

At the end of the song, it comes to an abrupt end.

The girl next to Xiao Jie froze, not noticing that the performance was over.

Lin Jiaming returned to his seat, took out a wet towel from the table, and wiped the sweat beads on his face. There was applause in the bar, and Lin Jiaming hurriedly got up to greet him.

"Ding~" Lin Jiaming turned on his mobile phone and saw the number, and his face sank instantly.

"Kaizi, Xiaojie, you have fun. I've got something to take care of!"

"Jiaming, hey~Jiaming~" Kaizi hurriedly got up and wanted to stop Lin Jiaming. But it was too late, and he had already strode out of the door of the bar.

"What's his ~ name?" asked the girl next to Xiao Jie.

"Lin Jiaming!"
