Honeymoon Salad (2) The Unluckiest Day Author: Shukhov

(2) The most unlucky day

"The train from Platform 4 to Nantianmen is about to enter the station-"

"This train is waiting for the express train to pass at Huangtuling Station"

If it is not necessary, Jiaming rarely takes the subway to work, after all, it is still a long way from his residence.

In the morning, the crowd of people rushing to the ticket gate moved down the stairs to the basement. This is not the starting station, and the crowds are not too dense, but there are not many gaps to surpass calmly.

"Hey! Ahh

As if it was the sixth sense before danger came, Jia Ming stood suddenly, and a woman's exclamation came from behind him, something, with wind pressure, felt like a substance.

Jia Ming only had time to turn around, and the moment of lightning - it was an adult woman, almost parallel to the stairs, and he was standing in this direction just on the track that the other party had fallen. I didn't have time to think about it, in fact, even if I wanted to get out of the way, it was impossible to do so, as a natural reaction...... An instinct, he subconsciously stretched out an arm-

Tear and pull --

The sleeve of the outstretched arm was clutched in the woman's hand, and there was still a little bit left on the shoulder, and Jia Ming's eyes widened, and his mind went blank for a moment.

A new outfit that I just made last summer

This situation can only be attributed to the fact that he is really weak enough, even if it is purely to relieve the depression in his heart, Jiaming can't blame that woman, after all, this is just an accident, if it is blamed on the irresponsible onlookers who have avoided in time, it will be even more stupid, who makes you not eye-catching? In short, this is the so-called bad luck to the extreme.

I had nightmares, I woke up late, missed the bus, didn't eat breakfast, and now one of my sleeves has been torn off, how can I digest the bad luck that comes one after another?

"Are you alright?" An elderly woman asked the woman who had fallen down the stairs with concern, and took out her handkerchief and gave it to her.

This woman is wearing a conservative long skirt, which is the kind of double-shoulder one-piece dress that was popular in the last century, the skirt is a monochrome velvet, plus a thick long-sleeved sweater inside, the first thing that gives people the overall feeling is that she looks old, in fact, her real age is only 26 years old this year, it is the youth, but she is dressed out of place, it can be said that on the city streets, she is an extremely rare type if not the only one.

The person couldn't stand up, a shoulder strap fell off and slanted to her arm, she didn't care, she ignored the concern of others, and didn't react except for trembling, the middle-aged woman thought to herself, could this person be stupid, or was he a fool in the first place? After all, how could an adult fall from such a high place, and his tone became hesitant: "Hey, are you okay?" ”

"Ah it's this person" She seemed to think of something, and pointed to Jia Ming beside her tremblingly, "It's him!" He was the one who pushed me down! ”

It seems that Jiaming's speechless silence that was so shocked at this time gave her the confidence to firm her judgment, and she reluctantly stood up from the ground, the woman put her hands on her chest, and complained in a more emotional and excited tone, "I was pushed down by him!" ”

What a deal, it's so unseemly, the crowd is talking. Although it is the rush hour for work, there are also many passers-by who come around and point their fingers, and most of the eyes that look at Jiaming contain contempt and accusation.

Jiaming put down the hand covering his shoulder, his personality is the type that will become detached when he is angry, and at this time he opened his mouth to defend himself for the first time, but it seemed to be stating something that had nothing to do with him: "You fell from above, right?" ”

"--How can I push you down the stairs when I'm already going down the stairs?"

"Huh?" The woman looked at the place where she had been standing in confusion, "Ahh

"Oh-", the onlookers also suddenly dispersed.

The innocence of being falsely accused was preserved, but the rotten clothes were still helpless after all, and Jiaming thought to himself that today was really the most unlucky. It's ugly to continue wearing ragged clothes, so simply take off your jacket and put it in the crook of your arm to continue walking, and you can't even miss the subway.

But the woman trotted up and shouted, "Wait a minute, I'm sorry, I'll wait a minute!" ”

"What's the matter?"

"I'm sorry! I," she said, holding a large paper bag in her hand, "I'm really sorry just now!" ”

"Forget it." It was originally a disaster, and the most important thing for Jiaming now was to catch the subway, so he continued to stride towards the platform with no expression.

"Hey, wait, I'll sew your coat!"

"It's all like this, there's no need to make up for it."

"I'll sew it! Really, I promise! She lowered her head and grabbed the coat in Jiaming's hand tightly, and she didn't let go.

Even Jia Ming, who doesn't know how to use needlework at all, probably knows that the repaired clothes are incomparable to the original, not to mention that this is a coat, "I said if you really apologize, can you leave this matter alone?" ”

"But"

"I'm in a hurry, this matter is over here, okay, if you want it, I'll give it to you, I can't wear it anyway."

The two of them were about to reach the platform before, Jia Ming let go of his hand and turned to leave, the woman holding the tattered clothes in her arms, and stayed in place in a daze.

Exit ticket gate, bad wallet, left in the suit and didn't take it out

After that, how to explain the process of apology and press the table, in short, it was a hurry, and as soon as I entered the door and said hello to my colleague who was already reading the newspaper, the colleague did not wonder why Jiaming was not wearing a coat in the cold weather.

Surprisingly, there were not many people in the office at this time, "What about the others?" ”

"Flexible work, I didn't come until ten o'clock, and I drank last night."

"Late?" The other party put down the newspaper that he had already flipped through once, "You can also apply for flexible work." ”

"Oh, no, I haven't worked for a year, so I can't apply for flexible work." Jiaming joined the company at about this time last year, and almost a year has passed, and he has finally adapted to his new position.

"Huh? And this kind of regulation? ”

At this time, a phone call came in from the office, "Gu Jiaming, 3 lines, it's from the GB system." "Jiaming worked for that software company for a while.

Jiaming picked up the earpiece and lowered his voice: "Enough, I'm still at work"

"Ah~~ Because of that--that ghost accounting system you did -- isn't there something with a big load? That's itβ€”"

You talked back and forth between the two sides of the phone line for a long time, "Isn't it just right then!" ”

"Don't be so ruthless, teach me, it's too troublesome to check one by one."

Jia Ming: ""

*

Speaking of which, Ben San is about to come to an end, at this age, a lot of things are repeated and repeated, and some life experience has been accumulated, and on this basis, there will occasionally be some insights. Blessings are incomparable, disasters are not one-way, people are unlucky, there is always more than one bad thing, and it will not leave you time to breathe. At 7:40 p.m., it was dark early in early spring, and it was already bright lights outside, and the worst day in history was also at the end.

"There are passengers who get off the train at Minami-ku Garden Station, please bring your belongings"

With a borrowed stored value card in his hand, Jiaming poured out of the subway station with the bustling crowd, and when he passed by the lost and found bar, he didn't have much hope, but only glanced at it better than nothing.

I'm very sorry this morning, but I handed over your stored value card to the station.

This sentence written on the whiteboard with an oil-based pen, with his name and prepaid card number underneath, is so mixed with the names of many lost owners, which is very eye-catching.

"Please write your address and name contact information here"

At the information counter at the station, the staff handed Jiaming a signature pen, and on the table in front of him was an 8-open notebook, on which many similar careless ghosts had been recorded one after another. There is also a column that records the name of the person who found it.,It's a casual other party can write or not.,In fact, this column is indeed a lot of blanks.。 When Jia Ming found his name in the column of the lost owner, it was written "Ye Lingjing" next to it.

Ye Lingjing Ye Lingjing's name is very good, and I always feel that this name, where have I seen it before, is this a sense of dΓ©jΓ  vu? Having said that, based on the impression of the morning, I can't see any "spirit" and "quiet" at all.

"Is there anything else missing? You check with me again. ”

So I checked the items in the wallet with the staff who were quite serious and responsible, stored value cards, driver's licenses, ID cards, business cards issued by the company, bank cards, and a few small notes. Below is the contact information and address she left.

There is no need to hurry, he relaxed and walked the subway station to the residence, this area is far away from the city, it was originally a riverside tidal flat wasteland, only a few years ago it was developed into a residential area with dense residences, the time was nearly nine o'clock, in addition to a few deserted supermarkets and real estate agents are still on the lights, the streets have been difficult to find people, and the sound of vehicle engines is faintly heard in the distance, from small to large, and then gradually disappear -

It was as if the whole city, the whole world under the sky, was left with only oneself.

In fact, he usually arrives home at about this time, messy things, often overtime, colleagues' dinners, occasional purchases, it feels like the time from eating to eight or nine o'clock in the evening always passes very fast, and then do something casually to kill the time, you can turn off the lights and sleep, and the day will pass.

No matter how big the impact is, even if it cannot be completely healed, it will eventually be pressed to the invisible bottom after time deposits, but what if one day the water is muddied and the residue at the bottom turns up?

The dream last night induced painful memories of the past, even if the family knew that the sky could be suppressed by noise from all directions and not cared, but now that I am alone, the feeling of belonging to the past is getting stronger and stronger, and I want to bury it again, but I can't let it go. Looking back from this perspective, the most unfortunate day may be the welfare.

Jiaming's unit is still for a small apartment for single young people, in order to win by quantity, this kind of building is usually built very high, normal people's psychology will generally prefer the third and fourth floors, he chose the top floor of the unpopular, time is money, and the money he saved is wasted on the elevator.

"You're finally back!"

"I thought you weren't coming back! I'm worried to death! ”

"It took me a lot of work to get here! It's also a walk from the train station! Even if there is a sign at the entrance of the community, it is difficult to find! As if she knew him well, she complained as she bent over and stood up to pat the dust, her attitude was so natural that she didn't twist a little, and the long black hair under her turban swayed in the air with her movements.

"What a look on your face! Have you forgotten about me? ”

The person who made Jiaming inseparable appeared in front of him now: leaning against the wall of the elevator door, raising his head to greet him happily, and there was a large shoulder bag on the tiled floor beside her.

Jia Ming's hands trembled unnaturally, and he wanted to clench his fists but couldn't exert his strength. She approached him with an innocent face, as if she was puzzled why he didn't speakβ€”could it be that she had recognized the wrong person, then she would be embarrassed today!

"How could you now"

As if she had found evidence confirming the other party's identity from this answer, she straightened up with satisfaction and smiled.

"Gu Jiaming! Long time no see! ”
