Chapter 1 Bridge Cave
wedge
Seven days, from the first seven days of his life, it has been seven days now. She sat on the couch in the living room www.biquge.info her arms tightly around her curled legs, burying her head deep in her knees. But even so, it still can't stop both ears from keenly catching the ticking sound of the clock. "Tick ...... Tick ...... "It's going to be 8:28 again, today, will he still come?"
The door creaked open again......
1. Bridge and cave
Wu Xi gently pushed open the door of the second bedroom and walked through the living room on tiptoe, for fear of alarming her roommates, the two fat monks. Since she moved in, Xu Xing would be attacked by their long guns and short cannons every morning when she went to work. "Obviously working in one place." "Why don't you give someone a ride?" "What should I do if such a beautiful girl squeezes the bus and runs into a pervert?" The first few times, Wu Xi would explain to them on the grounds that it was not good to be seen by his colleagues, and after finding that it was ineffective, he simply left the house every time as if he was running away, so as to avoid facing Xu Xing's cloudy face.
"Don't be so careful, they're gone." Xu Xing's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Gone? Why? ”
"I didn't have the money to renew the lease, so I went to the fate."
"Oh...... Then I'...... I'll go first, too. ”
Wu Xi walked out of the house faster than when the fat monk was at home, and from then on, she and Xu Xing were left to live in this house, although they were ruthless concubines and had no intention, but after all, they were young men and women, and they were superiors and subordinates, so it was not so natural to get along with each other. No, no, we're more like comrades-in-arms, fighting monsters and upgrading together, so it doesn't seem so embarrassing to think so. Comrades-in-arms, Wu Xi hypnotized himself over and over again, until he had no distractions, and then trotted all the way to catch the bus.
"This is it, right?" "Yes, I happened to pass by here that day, and the driver abandoned the car directly, the water is too deep, and the deepest place under the bridge is said to be three or four meters." "No wonder they drowned." "yes, who would have thought that they would drown on this busy road, it's really unlucky."
Wu Xi was originally drowsy by the bumpy bus, but he was completely drowsy by the whispers of the two women behind him. Are they talking about the heavy rain two weeks ago? After the heavy rain, the drainage system of City D was so badly scolded by public opinion that the mayor personally came out to apologize because several people drowned in the rainstorm. And they were talking about the most bizarre incident.
The incident itself is very simple, nothing more than the road is covered with water, but the driver tried to pass, but he did not expect that the water was too deep and caused the vehicle to stall, and the rain was too heavy, and the water level rose rapidly, so he drowned in the car. But the reason why this incident caused earth-shaking discussion is not because the incident itself is bizarre, but because it is an accident with a very low probability - the young man actually drowned in the most prosperous neighborhood of D City, in this place, a person may die for various reasons, such as the most common car accident, and the relatively rare robbery or suicide, but he drowned, which is like a scene in the movie "Death is Coming", too many accidental factors piled up together to cause his death, therefore, it has caused great repercussions.
The reason why Wu Xi is interested in this matter is because she is going to do a special issue, and she has already thought of a name, which is called "The Unknown Crisis Ambushed in the City," Obviously, this incident is a good starting point. At the pre-editorial meeting, Wu Xi told Xu Xing about this idea, and Xu Xing agreed, but suggested that she go to the field to take pictures and interview relevant personnel, so as to attract readers more.
Wu Xi was just about to go out with the camera on his back, and met Lin Yun, the girl who had lunch with Xu Xing every day, at this time, she was timidly walking behind Xu Xing, and whispered: "Something happened at home, and I want to take a week off, so I won't have lunch with you this week." Xu Xing replied without looking back: "There is no need to report this kind of thing to me." Lin Yun's face, which was originally still shrouded in red clouds, suddenly turned blue and white for a while, and it was not that she would not leave, and the colleagues around her began to discuss when they saw this, and some even let out a few sneers.
"The elevator is coming, are you leaving?" Looking at her thin back, Wu Xi couldn't help but feel unbearable. "Hmm...... Good. Lin Yun hurriedly walked into the elevator with her as if she had grasped a life-saving straw. This Xu Xing, others told you that you couldn't eat with you, and you just got a good word, as for not giving people the steps in front of everyone? Wu Xi couldn't help but secretly blame Xu Xing in his heart. I...... Isn't it ridiculous? Lin Yun suddenly turned his head to look at Wu Xi and asked. No, it's not...... I mean, I don't know ......" Wu Xi was asked by her, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he stumbled. "I know, they all call me behind my back, saying I'm a joke," she looked up at Wu Xi and smiled friendly, "I don't care, really, but Wu Xi, I still have to thank you today, I still have something to do, go first." "Hmm."
The child is not a fish, and you know the joy of fish. In the past, Wu Xi also felt that Lin Yun was very sad, and exchanged his humility day after day for an impossible result. Now she understands her a little, once upon a time, she also wanted to go over and beg Zhu Yu, begging him to forgive him for his willfulness and rudeness, begging him to let him stay by his side, even if he is a little flower that is low to the dust, as long as he can get a trace of warmth, he can survive for the rest of his life. She even put these ideas into action, and several times she came downstairs to Zhu Yu's unit, wanting to wait for him to get off work and desperately try to fight for her last bit of hope, but every time she was almost there, she ran away without looking back as if she had done something wrong, because she couldn't let go of the last bit of self-esteem in her heart? Or are you afraid to see them arm in hand? She didn't know, because after experiencing the Songjian Tower incident, she finally escaped from this hesitant torment and chose the path she wanted to take in the future.
"Good luck." Wu Xi looked at Lin Yun's departing back and said softly.
The traffic jam in City D is well-known throughout the country, and when Wu Xi arrived at the interview site, it was already noon. "The Jade Butterfly Bridge has arrived." The bus conductor lazily reported the name of the place while shaking the fan, Wu Xi walked off the bus quickly, the bright sun shone so that she couldn't open her eyes, she covered the dazzling sunlight with her hands, and squinted slightly around the surroundings.
The name of the Jade Butterfly Bridge comes from its shape, and when viewed from the air, this huge overpass looks like a beautiful butterfly embedded in the bustling business district of D City. It includes two main bridges across the line, four north-south approach bridges, six ramp bridges, nine access bridges, two cross-river bridges, and on both sides of the bridge is the moat Weishui River of City D.
The drowned person is the westernmost access bridge, and unlike the prosperity of other sections of the Yudie Bridge, this bridge has just had an accident, and the warning line has not been removed, so there is no one in the entire section. The symbol of the Jade Butterfly Bridge, a bronze butterfly with fluttering wings, sits next to the bridge hole in this passage, and Wu Xi is standing in the shadow of this statue at the moment, hiding from the scorching sun overhead. I don't know why, although it is noon and it is the most yang time of the day, but suddenly there is an unknown panic slowly climbing into her heart, is it that the pole of things must be reversed, and the pole must be yin? She looked at the black hole passage bridge, hesitated for a moment, and still stepped in.
