Chapter 1 Good People and Good Things Before Death

"Jingle Bell ......"

Lai Xiaohu opened his sleepy eyes, turned off the alarm clock, staggered and struggled twice, sat up, walked out of bed, and came to the bathroom a few steps later. Standing under the warm bath water washed away the haze of drowsiness and the pain of being beaten all over the body.

Half an hour later, Lai Xiaohu stood in front of the mirror neatly dressed, with a new set of SAINT ANGELO suits he bought, which was originally intended to be worn when he got married, and now it came in handy in advance.

In front of the vanity mirror, he finally tidied up his dress, neat and straight suit, combed smooth and shiny hair, and handsome appearance, coupled with that indifferent smile, after this went out, it was a girl-like existence.

"Bang" Lai Xiaohu locked the door heavily and walked down the stairs quickly. At the door of the community, a "Hu Ji Breakfast" that has maintained full attendance for six years has unexpectedly opened, feeling the hunger in his stomach, Lai Xiaohu walked to the "Hu Ji Breakfast" and found a free stool to sit down, "Brother Zhang, it's still the same." ”

The boss of "Hu Ji Breakfast" is surnamed Zhang, not Hu, but his wife's surname is Hu. Lao Zhang's buns are a must, Lai Xiaohu's favorite thing in the morning is to have a cage of Lao Zhang's small buns, and I heard Lao Zhang say that this craft was passed down by his father-in-law.

"Oh, okay." Lao Zhang, who was serving a meal to a child dressed as a student, knew who it was when he heard this voice, and it didn't take long for the middle-aged Lao Zhang to walk up to Lai Xiaohu with a bowl of eight-treasure porridge and a basket of xiaolongbao, "Here, I know that you are still this." ”

After speaking, seeing Lai Xiaohu, who was wearing brand new today, Lao Zhang's smile welled up on his face, "I said that you are going to your mother-in-law's house today?" That's a little more to eat, and you look refreshed when you're full. ”

"Hehe......" Lai Xiaohu smiled at Lao Zhang's ridicule, "Hey, I'm used to it, I can't digest it more." ”

Lao Zhang didn't say anything, but muttered when he left: "Hey, young people now, just eat so little for a morning." ”

The steamed buns and porridge are all familiar flavors, Lai Xiaohu didn't take long to finish eating, took out a five-yuan piece from the bag and put it under the bowl, then stood up and said to Lao Zhang: "Brother Zhang, it's the same, I'm leaving." ”

"Okay, slow down......" gave Lai Xiaohu a smile, Lao Zhang put down his things and walked to the place where Lai Xiaohu was just sitting, put away the money under the bowl, and then began to clean up.

Lai Xiaohu, who has lived in this city for seven years, has a familiar feeling about everything here, leisurely walking on the road and looking at his watch, it is eight o'clock, which is the time when there are the most people on the road in Tianjin.

Lai Xiaohu walked very purposefully, along the way he kept watching everything familiar, hurried vehicles and passers-by, the shop that opened early, the high-rise building that was breaking ground, during which the company's manager gave him a call to ask him why he hadn't arrived at the company, Lai Xiaohu coped with the traffic jam as an excuse. In fact, he couldn't have been stuck in traffic because he was walking.

An hour later, Lai Xiaohu came to the destination of his trip, the intersection of the Jiefang Bridge in Jincheng, and after arriving, he suddenly found that today's Jiefang Bridge was a little different from usual, except for the passing vehicles, there seemed to be a lot of passers-by here today. After walking briskly, Lai Xiaohu figured out the reason, it turned out that a young girl was swaying in the wind on the bridge. "She's going to kill herself......" Lai Xiaohu guessed.

The surrounding people are talking, some people speculate about the reason for the girl's suicide, some people stand below and talk to the girl and keep persuading the girl to come down, there are already a few people next to me who don't know how many times to call the police, in the closest place to the bridge, a middle-aged woman barely stood under the support of two passers-by, she called the girl above with tears on her face, but she didn't get an answer, the girl still held the rope with both hands and looked down at the turbulent water of the Haihe River below, it is now summer, The water level of the Haihe River, which had just been hit by a heavy rainstorm, rose wildly.

Seeing the girl who didn't look back at the people below, Lai Xiaohu knew that the persuasion of the people below would not be fruitful, he slowly squeezed through the congested passers-by to the bottom of the suspension bridge of the bridge, and then in the eyes of everyone who exclaimed, Lai Xiaohu threw down his handbag and quickly climbed the suspension bridge with his hands and feet.

"Don't you come here......" The girl's voice was very crisp, and when she saw Lai Xiaohu appear a few meters away from her, she was a little panicked, this was already the third person who climbed up to talk to her, and those people had only one purpose, that is, they wanted her to go down, but she wouldn't go down.

"You don't have to be afraid." Lai Xiaohu held the steel rope with one hand and reached out to the front with the other to signal the girl to be quiet, and then he put his hands to his mouth and said to the girl as if whispering, "Actually, I also came up to commit suicide." ”

"Huh?" The girl was surprised and looked at Lai Xiaohu in a daze.

Of course, Lai Xiaohu would not let go of such an opportunity, and when the girl reacted, he had already appeared half a meter away from the girl, "This bridge belongs to everyone, and it is my right to stand here and commit suicide." ”

"......" The girl shook her head and responded to Lai Xiaohu silently, but she looked at him more when she saw Lai Xiaohu's neat dress and handsome appearance.

"Why did you kill yourself?" After a few breaths, Lai Xiaohu suddenly turned his head and asked.

"My boyfriend doesn't want me anymore." Apparently asked about her heartbreak, the girl began to cry again.

"That's for love." Lai Xiaohu understood, "Do you still have a family?" ”

"Yes, my mom and dad are here." After the girl finished speaking, both of them fell silent, and Lai Xiaohu thought of his departed relatives.

"Who did you live for? It's you. Lai Xiaohu asked and answered herself, and the woman also nodded.

"Actually," in order to increase persuasiveness, Lai Xiaohu raised his voice and became more serious, "People live in society not only for themselves, not for the country's righteousness, just to say that you live in this world, not just for you." You also live for your family, your mom and dad, your siblings, and even your friends. ”

"You can't be completely independent of this society, you were born because of your parents, and you are also the most important part of your parents' hearts, have you ever wondered what your parents will be like when you die?"

"They're going to live well." The girl said without a trace of confidence.

"No," after speaking, Lai Xiaohu took out his mobile phone and opened the network to enter words such as self-killing, and soon countless news links appeared on the screen, clicking on a Lai Xiaohu with a picture and extending the mobile phone to the girl's eyes, "When you die, your parents will be like this." ”

After taking the phone, what appeared in the girl's eyes was a painful scene of a woman lying on top of her dead son, and the mother's wail and tears of pain in the photo made the girl's heart suddenly tremble.

"When you die, your parents will be like this, they will not be able to live well, and they may even follow your old path."

"No......" The woman obviously couldn't accept this result, and under the tremor of her body, she didn't know when the phone suddenly fell off and fell into the water, and there was not even a wave.

"For a man who is not as important as your parents, you may have to take three lives? Is it worth it? ”

"Is it worth it?" Lai Xiaohu's questioning hit the girl's heart, she panicked, she flinched, "No, I can't die," the woman began to run away from the river below, step by step, step by step down the suspension bridge.

Before leaving, the girl asked Lai Xiaohu, "I'm going down, why can't you go down?" ”

"No, I'm not here to save you, I'm here to kill myself."

"Why?" The woman asked, "Don't you have any relatives?" ”

"No," Lai Xiaohu's voice was full of loneliness, "and I still owe usury." Even if I die, they won't be able to get their money back. ”

The girl was hesitant about Lai Xiaohu's words, not knowing whether to believe or not.

Under Lai Xiaohu's gaze, the woman slowly walked down the suspension bridge, and then before she could stand, she was just hugged by the mother who rushed up, "Daughter, daughter," the mother kept shouting. Seeing the girl rescue the passers-by next to her, she applauded.

"Why haven't you come down yet?" Slowly, someone found that Lai Xiaohu, who had saved the girl, was still standing on it, and began to feel wonderful, and after the girl heard this voice, she suddenly raised her head and looked at her again.

"He's going to kill himself...... too," the girl suddenly shouted.

Everyone was in an uproar, "Come down, ......" The people below changed their goals one after another, and used the words they just used on the girl on Lai Xiaohu. They didn't want to think that these words didn't work on the girl, how could they work on the more weathered Lai Xiaohu.

"Farewell, this beautiful world...... I hope there won't be an afterlife that will end my life. Looking at the bridge under him, which has experienced a hundred years of vicissitudes, Lai Xiaohu saw the fragility of life.

In the midst of countless exclamations and the girl's widening eyes, Lai Xiaohu looked at everyone with a smile and leaned down......
