Chapter 16 Urban Villages
Lin Yu went to the man's neighborhood two days later, after all, as a god of death, he couldn't watch the man's ghost wandering in the world. I wonder if the two days of time he spent with his family have been reduced, and the man's nostalgia for the world has been reduced?
Lin Yu appeared under the residential building on a motorcycle, and just as he was about to put on the Grim Reaper's hat and sneak into the man's house, Lin Yu suddenly found a figure curled up in the dark corner of the corridor, he lowered his head and looked dazed on his face, it was the middle-aged man who had died.
Lin Yu was a little strange why the man stayed in the corridor instead of his home, after his own leadership, the man should be able to enter and leave his home freely.
In order to facilitate communication and avoid being noticed by irrelevant people, Lin Yu still put on the Grim Reaper's hat and stood in front of the man, "You, why are you sitting here?"
When the man heard the question, he hurriedly raised his head, and when he saw that it was indeed the Grim Reaper standing in front of him, his face showed an excited look, "Lord Death, you can do me another favor so that I can enter the new home of my wife and children." ”
"New home?" Lin Yu raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, "Have they moved?"
The man nodded violently, "I moved yesterday, and my new home is not far from here, so I'll take you there." ”
Before the man could wait for Lin Yu to answer, he hurriedly stood up and walked towards the outside of the corridor, and it could be seen that he had been waiting for Lin Yu here for a long time.
Lin Yu didn't expect that just one weekend had passed, and his family would move to a new place, which directly led to a result, the man could no longer be in the same space as his family, which was why he was so anxious.
The two of them crossed the road one after another, they didn't have to wait for the traffic lights, they didn't need to care about the fast moving vehicles, everything was the same as the air in front of them.
After walking through two streets and turning another corner, the man walked into a small road next to the road, he turned back to Lin Yu and said, "Lord Death, there is a front." ”
Lin Yu didn't say anything but nodded, he noticed that the houses in this area were low and dilapidated, and the roads were narrow and crowded, which was in stark contrast to the high-rise buildings on the periphery, this kind of place had an exclusive name in Yangcheng, Urban Village.
Of course, the environment of the urban village cannot be compared with the community, and the people living in it are also mixed, from all walks of life, Lin Yu was a little puzzled because of what made Haohao and his mother decide to move here.
The urban villages are filled with self-built residential buildings, and these villagers have fully enjoyed the dividends of urban development, and they only need to rent out their spare rooms to receive a considerable rent every month. Therefore, the landlords here basically don't go to work, they either get together every day to play mahjong, or raise some flowers, birds, insects and fish to enjoy themselves, although their own cultural level is generally not high, but they can leisurely watch their college students and tenants are tired and breathless every day.
"This is it," the man stopped in front of a four-story residential building, which had an old exterior and many mottled walls.
Lin Yu looked up and saw that the corridors on each floor of the residential building were full of clothes, so it was surmised that there must be a lot of tenants living in it. "Where do they live?" Lin Yu asked.
The man pointed to the far left of the third floor, "That's the room." "Although he could not enter the residential building, he saw his wife move everything to that location yesterday, and the man had tried to watch through the glass of the balcony as usual, but the wooden door of that room was often closed, and even a broken window was pasted with newspaper, which could basically be called 'isolated'.
"Let's go up directly," after Lin Yu said this, he kicked his feet, and his body flew up lightly. The man also followed behind Lin Yu and floated outside the corridor on the third floor.
Lin Yu stepped over the railing, and the barrier that hindered the man collapsed invisibly, and they landed on the corridor on the third floor, and then walked unimpeded into the woman's new home.
Lin Yu smelled a musty smell coming to his face, perhaps because of the humid weather and being too closed, this room gave people the feeling that no one had lived in it for a long time. But what Lin Yu saw were all kinds of daily necessities piled together, some of them were still in a state of packing, and they should have not had time to put things in place, and the others were a bed, a desk and a wardrobe, without any more furniture.
Lin Yu felt that this kind of living environment was not much different from his university dormitory, and it could even be said that it was even worse, because there was a bathroom in the dormitory, which was obviously not available here.
I still remember when I was delivering takeaways, Lin Yu saw that the woman's home should be a two-bedroom apartment, a four-person sofa can be placed in the living room, a coffee table and a TV cabinet in front, and a rectangular wooden dining table next to it. This should be what most people's lives look like at home, seeing the scene in front of him, Lin Yu couldn't help but admire in his heart, how determined a woman is to move to this urban village to rent.
The expression on the man's face was a little unnatural since he walked in, and the look of anticipation on his face before was now all drooping. Not only because the room is empty now, and the wife and children he wants to see have not appeared, but also because the environment in front of him is far from what he imagined, and he can't accept that his family lives such a life.
"Lord Death, thank you for bringing me in, I want to be alone for a while now," the man said in a very weak tone.
Lin Yu can understand the man's mood at this time, after all, no one wants to see his family's life deteriorate because of his death. The man's expression revealed more inseparable, which was not a good thing for Lin Yu, but it had come to this point, and Lin Yu could only let the man slowly calm down.
"My identity in the world is a computer science student at Yangcheng University, and I live in room 607 of Building 9 in the men's dormitory, if you need any help, you can come to me at any time," Lin Yu told him his address in order to prevent the man from waiting for him any longer.
A grateful smile appeared on the man's face, but he soon became disillusioned, and he sat silently on the wooden bed, as if waiting for his wife and children to come home.
Lin Yu walked out of the room, he was going back to school for lunch, there were still two classes to be held in the afternoon, Lin Yu wanted to say some comforting words to the man, but after all, he didn't know how to speak, fortunately, this time the mission Death Game did not set a time limit, and Lin Yu planned to take a step at a time.
