Chapter 1 The End?

Next Chapter

October 11, 2019.

This was the worst day of his life for Zhuoqun.

Because on this day, a series of bad luck things all fell on his head.

made him the saddest man in the world.

First, he was dismissed from the unit.

This is the "Urban Youth Daily" that he has been serving him since graduating from university, working diligently for 20 years, and devoting the best time of his life.

Because of the changes of the times, it has gone into decline, and it has been decided to stop publishing completely.

Although the newspaper will also transform into a new media that focuses on online business, it will continue to operate.

However, it is also necessary to reduce staff and increase efficiency, so as to clean up a large number of middle-aged employees who no longer have the ability to adapt to the times.

Unfortunately, he is on this list of dismissals.

Indeed, he has gone from a small reporter who had to run in the field in the hot summer to a deputy director of the editorial department who can sit comfortably in the office and give instructions.

But at the last moment of the catastrophe, he found that he was still an insignificant person.

It's like a pencil head that's running out.

Also, on the same day, bad news came from his marriage.

Just as he was about to pack his things.

His wife, who had been separated from him for two months, actually called.

He formally filed a divorce request, as well as negotiated the sale of the house and the division of property.

Such a coincidence also made him frustrated.

You must know that his wife, Wei Li, used to be an employee of this newspaper.

Although he is a few years older than him, he has a good temperament and appearance.

In the past, I was very able to understand and care about people.

At the beginning, it was due to the rule that husbands and wives could not work together within the newspaper.

It was Wei Li who took the initiative to choose to leave after marriage and fulfilled him.

And as a wife, Wei Li not only does not think that he is from a poor background.

He also supported him to send a part of the money to his hometown every month to help his parents who were suffering.

What a rare good wife and mother-type spouse.

It's a pity that life is never a fairy tale, and there is no possibility of eternal happiness.

Since Wei Li had a "fatal" operation, their marriage has been turned upside down.

Because they are destined to never have children of their own in this life.

Wei Li's temperament changed drastically, and she began to be cynical and calculating.

She only knows about her grievances in her marriage every day, and even begins to doubt his loyalty to marriage.

This made their later days simply become torture and torment for both sides.

Even later, they finally got a two-bedroom apartment of their own in the East Fourth Ring Road of the capital.

Such a result of struggle has not improved the estrangement and estrangement between their husband and wife.

In the end, they still irreversibly came to this point of disliking each other.

That's not the end of it.

If it was just that he lost his job and his wife was gone, it was still not enough to describe all the bad luck that happened to him that day.

You know, the most terrifying, but there is another one.

That is, his life has also come to an end.

Yes, even though their house had appreciated a bit since it was bought, he never got a penny again.

Never again!

Because when he received a call from his wife, he hid in the pantry for the sake of face.

Just when I heard Wei Li say to him, "It's time to free each other, let's let each other go......".

Suddenly, the legendary sudden death fell from heaven to "favor" him.

At the time, his chest felt like it had been chiseled hard by a hammer.

I almost lost my life to this guy.

Caught with one's pants down!

Heartbreaking!

The phone that followed him fell out of his hand.

And his whole person was crooked on the utility shelf next to him uncontrollably.

There was no confusion at all, and he knew what was going on by his instincts alone.

The only thing he didn't understand was what caused his death.

Is it because I have been in a bad mood recently and have insomnia all night?

Or is it because the successive blows have far exceeded his psychological capacity?

Or is it a combination of both?

But it doesn't matter.

Actually, it doesn't matter anymore.

For to be dead is to be dead.

He didn't have any hope that he would be found in time and sent to the hospital for rescue in this corner that no one knew.

Thinking with his heels, he also knew that it was impossible to be rescued in time.

It's just that there is one more thing, he is really unwilling.

Even if he fell to the place, it was too inappropriate.

If he falls in the utility room, he will inevitably hit the shelf.

I only heard a "crackling" sound.

Toilet paper, printer paper, plastic tape, flashlights, brooms, etc., all quickly fell off and fell on him.

Although his hands were numb, his brain was swollen, his sweat was raining, and he was so painful that he wanted to convulse all over his body, he was still embarrassed to death.

You know, his father gave him a name because he hoped that his achievements in life would be outstanding.

It wasn't to hope that his death would be outstanding.

He couldn't imagine when others found out about him.

I saw that he actually died with a broom on his mouth and toilet paper on his body.

Will you exclaim, will you be surprised, or will you laugh?

What kind of absurd speculation will be made about the cause of his death, and what kind of gossip will be spread?

The sky is above!

It's so unfair!

As a complete failure in life, he is miserable enough.

Does he have to be like a clown at the end of his life?

Can't even get a little bit of decency?

A whole forty-one years of life ended so easily.

He died silently, meaninglessly, and vulnerably.

Sad, so sad!

If he is asked to make a summary of his life, there should only be the word "regret".

By the way, don't they all say that before they die, people will see the highlights of their lives repeatedly?

So why can't he see it?

Fuck, is this a lie?

He really wanted to see where his life was...... Out of ...... Asked...... Title......

The above thoughts were all thought of at the last second in Zhuo Qun's life.

He couldn't help but have a lot of complicated thoughts suddenly.

But that's it, that's it.

With the last moment, he felt the sharp pain that seemed to tear apart a world.

There was nothing left for him to think, and the process of his brain had come to a halt.

It is worth mentioning that when Zhuo Qun took his last breath, his eyes were still open.

It's a bit of a dead look.

And the phone he dropped on the ground was even on.

The exact time of his death should have been 10:04.

……

It's like drowning.

Zhuo Qun felt unable to breathe.

Of course, who let him already die?

But the strange problem is precisely ......

If he's dead, why does he realize he can't breathe?

yes, how could he still feel it?

Hot!

Stinking!

This is...... The smell of sweat!

The smell of his own sweat!

Why is it so dark?

I'm suffocating......

There's something on your head?

There's light out there!

Zhuo Qun lifted the things on his face, only to find that it was a towel quilt.

And after following him to breathe a sigh, he couldn't help but scold his mother.

The air in the daring room was terrible.

It's better to cover your head just now, but it's better not to lift the towel quilt this time

The smell of stinky sneakers and smelly socks like sarin's poisonous gas hit him and made him want to bang his head against the wall.

Absolutely authentic stinky salted hairtail!

However, this proves to be an extremely important thing.

Yes, he didn't die.

He breathes, he has a pulse, he is truly alive.

But it must be said that the thought did not make him happy at all.

Just as he had been sudden, death had not really scared him.

Perhaps, this is because he has long been tired of his failed life.

Otherwise, why would he feel an indescribable frustration instead of dying?

With this pessimism, Zhuo Qun turned over and sat up.

Thankfully, his negative emotions were dispelled almost instantly.

Because the scene in front of him really surprised him.

He found himself in a disorganized, chaotic, yet familiar room.

There are a total of three bunk iron frame beds in this room, and six bunks.

And he sat on the top bunk to the right of the window.

From his bird's-eye view, he could clearly see the books placed against the wall on each bed, the messy bedding on the bed, and the clothes and slippers scattered everywhere.

In the middle of the room, the common table was covered with newspapers and scattered playing cards.

The other table was full of green beer bottles.

There was also a hawthorn canned glass bottle stuffed with water-soaked cigarette butts.

Such a scene is so familiar...... Don't...... Don't?

Oh my God! It's incredible!

Yes, this is the 402 dormitory he used to live in when he was in college in the capital!

He was absolutely sure of that.

And not just because he was glancing out the window at this time.

I clearly saw the school playground crowded with people outside, and the cafeteria and auditorium in the distance.

Because he jumped out of bed and saw all the details of the house more clearly.

You know, he is the fifth in the college dormitory.

At the end of the upper bunk bed across from him hung a pair of red boxing gloves.

It was undoubtedly the beloved thing of the third child in their dormitory, the "live animal" Qiao Jian.

In addition, his lower bunk and Qiao Jian's lower bunk should be the beds of the fourth He Xu and the sixth Li Kai respectively.

He only looked down to confirm it, and it was exactly as he remembered.

On the top of the bunks of these two boys, there are posters of their dream lovers.

Even the content of the poster is not taken away.

He Xu's favorite pure jade girl.

His Zhou Huimin was wearing a knitted sweater, and his eyes were big and very pure.

And Li Kai is mature in his eyes.

His Zhang Min was wearing a black evening dress, smiling sideways, looking very charming.

Finally, there are bunk beds that cross next to the door.

The upper bunk is the eldest Xu Yuntao's, and the lower bunk is the second Gu Weijia's.

Needless to say, the red Nike sneakers on the bottom bunk are the main reason for the stinking here.

Because although the second Gu Weijia has always claimed that he spent more than two hundred on these shoes, how high-end.

But in fact, when he graduated, he leaked his mouth.

The truth is that these shoes are nothing more than a superficial thing that he bought for forty-five yuan in "moving lots".

The inner lining inside is not made of black-hearted cotton, so it will show such power.

And the boss's bed is the most iconic feature.

It should be a line of wild ink treasures left by the "seniors" on his bed.

It is estimated that the "Great Immortal" was also drunk and written.

The sentence "There is a diligent path in the book mountain, and there is no end to the hard work of learning the sea", which is actually a bit similar to Huaisu's cursive.

But let's be honest, all of this is more and more proof of the reality of the environment.

But it didn't make Zhuo Qun's mind clear and figure out the situation.

Instead, he became more confused, and countless questions appeared in his mind.

Why am I here?

What year is it now?

Is my spirit hallucinating?

No, it's completely unscientific!

What time crossing rebirth is just a bloody plot in a web novel!

Can...... But who would go to great lengths to do such a thing?

Still so realistic?

At this moment, the door popped open with a "bang".

The bedroom doorknob hit the wall, as it had happened countless times before.

and Li Kai, the "sixth child" who has been Zhuoqun's roommate for four years.

Holding a brushed rice bowl in one hand and a few books in the other, he appeared in front of Zhuo Qun very realistically.

"Damn, you're not going to get up, are you?...... you're really making lunch breakfast."

"Fortunately, there was no roll call in today's class, otherwise we would have thought you were up, and no one would have been in trouble for you. ”

"Hey, it's half past twelve in ten minutes. I said you can also brush your teeth and wash your face, hurry up, and then talk about the meal first......"

Zhuo Qun looked at his former classmates, so surprised that he couldn't speak.

Because in his impression, since the class reunion six or seven years ago, this kid should have started to lose his hair.

When I met him at school last year, I found that he had no hair left.

But now Li Kai's hair is still so thick, and the hairline has not receded.

The figure is so slim, and the face is so smooth, without wrinkles.

In particular, those eyes, which are completely untouched by society, are full of youth and hope, and belong completely to the eyes of young people.

"It's not...... I said Zhuo Qun, are you okay?"

"Don't stand naked. ”

"Come on, you're not Superman, so don't show off to me in these red pants. ”

After Li Kai's three sentences in a row, Zhuo Qun barely managed to squeeze out a sentence.

"I ...... I'm really not feeling well. ”

This caused Li Kai to laugh loudly.

He sat down on his bed, tucked his books on the bed, and put the rice bowl on the windowsill.

"You, I didn't say you, don't drink it. But it's good that you're the boss's girlfriend, you have to be big. It's stupid now, it's embarrassing and uncomfortable, why bother in the first place. ”

"I'll tell you, you drank too much last night. It's not often that a good thing like the boss's girlfriend has a treat. We finally got a little meat in our stomachs, and as a result, you still sacrificed to the land lord. ”

"In the future, your kid will have three bottles at most, remember the amount yourself, do you know?"

Zhuo Qun still replied dumbly.

"Oh......"

Li Kai is really a little worried now.

"Ouch, you don't really have a problem with your face, do you? You have to go to the infirmary and ask the school doctor for some medicine. By the way, don't forget to get some hot water to take your temperature, if you don't have this chance, you can get a fake slip out......"

"Good ......"

Although Zhuo Qun promised in his mouth, he was extremely panicked in his heart.

He had a thousand words in his stomach that he wanted to say to Li Kai.

But he knows better.

Li Kai would never believe such a crazy thing, it didn't make any sense for him to say it.

So he had only one thing to do.

He returned to his bed, identified his clothes, and began to put them on.

A pair of ordinary jeans, a khaki shirt.

Then, he found a pair of brown faux leather shoes under the bed.

He couldn't find the socks, so he stepped on them directly.

But when he walked out of the door, he was stopped by Li Kai again.

"Zhuo Qun, why don't you take the rice bowl? Listen to me, why do you have to drink soup in the cafeteria, and then buy two steamed buns to keep. Otherwise, if you get hungry later, your stomach will be even more uncomfortable......"

But Zhuo Qun did not mean to do this kind advice.

He turned around and asked another question.

"Hey, what time is it today?"

"Today is Thursday, October 11th, and there are no classes in the afternoon. ”

"That'...... What year is it?"

"Are you alright? What year? What year are you asking? What year are you...... There's something really wrong with you!"

Seeing that Li Kai's expression had changed from surprise to fright.

Zhuo Qun didn't want to stimulate him anymore, and turned around and walked out of the dormitory.

PS:

To all the book friends who love my work "Return to 1977":

1 This book was removed from the starting point, but because the first release was the Genesis Chinese Network, the QQ reading APP is still being updated.

2 "Return to 1977" has adhered to the principle of emphasizing quality over speed since its creation. I don't hesitate to write a chapter with the energy of someone else's three chapters. Unfortunately, the wrong website was posted, because the style of writing did not match the first station Genesis Chinese Network, the subscription was bleak, and there were only more than 700 subscriptions. Fortunately, there are many starting point book friends who support it. Although the starting point has never been recommended, and the subscription money is also discounted, even as a channel, the income of the starting point is still four times that of the creation, which is the root of my creative passion. However, the recent policy adjustment at the starting point, this article was taken off the shelves, and it caught up with the flood of QQ reading APP gifts, and the income plummeted. The book has been reduced to a purely love-generating situation. Although I still hope that there will be a beginning and an end, and I will try to update it as much as possible, I will no longer make any promises and guarantees. It is hereby explained that I hope you will understand. If you like this book, try not to use free coins for genuine reading, and I am deeply grateful.
