The western outskirts of N City is a typical industrial area with factories and a recycling station.

The two large iron doors of the recycling station were closed, and on one of the doors was a peeled signboard. The door of one of the huts opened open, and the occupants walked out with a portable kettle in their hands.

The old king raised the folds of his face, looked at the sky, and said, "Xiu'er, I'm going to work." ”

"Didi Di Di ~ Di Di Di ~"

07：15――

Thick curtains shield the sunlight from intruding, a bedroom in the dark, and a bed with a mat. I lay in bed and moved a little to the bombardment of the alarm clock.

I slept too late last night, and I didn't want to open my eyes, so I reluctantly stretched out a hand and pressed the switch of the alarm clock. I slowly put on my flip-flops, rubbed my messy hair with one hand, and walked to the bathroom.

07：45――

I rushed out of the bathroom - tied up my ponytail, revealing a white melon seed face, and looked delicate, quiet, well-behaved and virtuous. And I'm the typical type of person who speaks and acts, which is contrary to my image. Today is my ...... as a full-time employee Six days later, I rushed to the table, which contained an apple that I had washed before going to bed last night, a white envelope, and a few bamboo chopsticks that had been badly bitten and split.

I picked up the apple and took a bite of it, grabbed the white envelope and walked out the door. The envelope contained the "decision" I made after biting the bamboo chopsticks all night - why bite the bamboo chopsticks? Hehe, the "sequelae" of biting the tip of the pen when encountering a problem while reading has flareed up again!

08：05――

I stood at the supervisor's desk and tried my best to be sincere.

The director was a chubby, man in his early thirties, who smiled innocently, but he was very slippery. He lowered his head and fiddled with the colored tie given by his girlfriend and asked, "Figured it out?" ”

Seriously, that tie really doesn't match him!

I stifled a smile and replied, "Figured it out!" Then he respectfully placed the white envelope in his hand on the table.

The supervisor thought that I would choose to bow my head and admit my mistake, begging him to radiate a light of kindness and tolerance, but when he saw the word "resignation" on the table, the corners of his mouth instantly collapsed, showing a hint of embarrassment.

"Hmph~ young man, ......" he said disdainfully: "Good luck!" ”

"Thank you!" I didn't think so, turned around and walked out.

Maybe I'll regret it, but it was my choice to quit the job - yesterday I was sent to the warehouse to inspect the goods, and I bumped into the supervisor who was harassing a female colleague. Although the person concerned chose to swallow his anger and not pursue it, I impulsively posted a "condemnation post" on the company's internal forum. Although I did not name names, it may be that the "crime" of this boss is no secret for a long time, and it quickly attracted the keen attention of the whole company. I think I'm too young and stubborn, the company is not a campus, and I can't tolerate this fearless "justice" move. Between "apologizing publicly" and "leaving", I chose the latter - young and willful!

The sun was scorching, and the heat spurred on the heels of passers-by. The old king was squatting in the shade of a big tree on the side of the road to rest his breath, drinking his inferior strong tea to quench his thirst. Despite the bad weather, some people still have to stick to their posts regardless of the sun and rain, just for the meager livelihood that is only enough to make ends meet, and Lao Wangtou is such a person. He tightened the lid of the kettle in his hand, stood up with the handle of the garbage truck, and continued to work.

I walked out of the office building and suddenly felt a wave of heat in my face, and I couldn't help but regret it a little. But I don't want to admit that I'm wrong.

Yau Bai Road is the place I must go home, and I walked absentmindedly with my chin against the storage box I was holding in my arms. Suddenly, a cool wind blew, and I shivered, and a striking orange color on the side of the road caught my attention—there seemed to be a man lying there!

During this time, there are fewer people and fewer cars, and occasionally vehicles passing by are blowing air conditioners and the windows are closed. Lao Wang was only wearing a sanitation vest on his head, and his black and thin arms touched the hot ground, and he was lying on the side of the road so straight, I don't know how long.

I ran over and put down the box, shook the old king's arm, and shouted, "Old man...... Wake up...... Wake up! ”

The ground was steaming up, thinking that the TV had said that the unconscious old man could not be helped casually, and I was a little troubled - not that I was afraid that things would be falsely accused, but that I was worried that I would encounter a cerebral hemorrhage or something, and this help would really be a "big deal"!

“120！ Yes, 120......" I hurriedly rummaged through my phone in my carry-on bag, but I heard a faint sound coming.

Old Wang's throat rolled, I leaned down, turned my face and listened: "What did you say, old man?" ”。

"Water ......"

"Water? Do you want water? Good, good......"

I got up to buy water, but I saw a kettle attached to the handle of the garbage truck and hurriedly pulled it down.

The familiar and bitter tea, moist and dry lips slowly flowed into the throat of the old king. His shrugged eyelids twitched, and his consciousness cleared up a little. When the old king heard someone shouting, he barely opened his eyes, and saw a little girl looking at him anxiously.

I reached out and slipped through the back of his neck and helped him up: "Old man, why don't you take you to the hospital?" ”

Lao Wang's lips squirmed, and he made a hoarse voice: "No, it's okay......"

"That'...... Shall I help you to rest in the shade for a while? ”

The old king paused, and reluctantly let out: "Uh! "It's a yes.

I helped the old king to sit down on the edge of the concrete flower bed in the shade of the trees. As the scorching sun climbed and the temperature got higher and higher, I couldn't help but be a little worried: "Old man, do you want to contact your family to pick you up?" The sun is so big, it's easy to get heat stroke! ”

The old king shook his head, he was very stubborn, withdrawn, and not used to troublesome people. He waved his hand and said in a somewhat impatient tone, "I'm fine...... Let's go...... Let's go! ”

"Oh, then you pay more attention to yourself!" I reluctantly walked towards the abandoned box, and when I looked back, the old king was trying to get up, not wanting to stumble back down. My grandfather died early, I haven't seen him since I was a child, and I can't bear to see the old king's appearance, basking under the sun.

That's it, there's nothing to do today anyway! -- I picked up the suitcase and turned around and ran over, and said to the old king, "Old man, you can't do this, why don't I send you back?" ”

The old king was a little hesitant, and he knew in his heart that his body was a little unbearable. looked at the worried look of the young man in front of him, and replied in a somewhat stiff tone: "I have to go back to the station to hand over!" ”

"It's okay, I'll send you!"
