Chapter 38: Melody and Song 3
The melody of the captain's jeep echoed in my head until now, I don't know what it was, I don't know the name, on the train, I look out the window at the scenery and the noisy crowd in the carriage, and I still savor it.
Then one day, as I was walking down the street, I passed by a shop with this familiar tune playing in it.
I stopped and walked in.
I stood in front of the counter and attracted the little sister at the front desk to stare at me.
After a while, I asked, "What do you want to buy?" ”
I reacted and said, "What's the name of this piece?" ”
The little girl smiled: "Huh? You say this, this is a song that my dad often likes to listen to, and I have forgotten it, it has been a song for many years. ”
"Oh, forget it, thank you." Feeling a little lost, I turned around and walked out.
Anyway, I still don't know what that song is called, and when I went out some time ago, I saw that the store had closed the roller shutter door, and the word "transfer" was posted on it.
What more can I say? I can only get out of here quickly.
The train is still moving, carrying a scarred heart into the distance.
One day, many years later, I was standing alone on the balcony looking at the magpie that had just flown away, and I took out my phone and dialed the magpie's number.
"Yo? What's wrong? I'm still busy. ”
Magpie was a little surprised when she connected, it was the second time I called her, but she was still surprised.
I thought about it for a long time and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to come and see me?" When? ”
"Ah, evening, I'll be fine."
"Well, okay, I'll buy something delicious."
The magpie laughed: "It's good if you have a heart, hang up." ”
I looked at my phone and felt a little more comfortable.
The train traveled for nearly ten hours, and when I arrived at the place, it was already more than ten o'clock at night, and the first person I got off the train with my backpack was a magpie.
I didn't inform anyone, and I still don't know how she knew I got off here, after all, the city where she works is at least a hundred kilometers away from here, and this woman drove directly here?
She smiled and waved at me, and I walked over with my luggage: "Why are you here?" ”
She stretched out her hand and took my luggage: "Let's go, I'll drop you off somewhere." ”
"Forget it, I'll go by myself and just take a taxi." It's like getting your luggage back.
She slapped my hand away: "I said I'll send you back!" ”
I had no choice but to follow her to the car.
After getting in the car, I asked, "More than 100 kilometers, just to pick me up?" ”
"Cut~" She smiled and fastened her seat belt: "I think about you too much, who are you, I came here on a business trip, and it just so happened to happen." ”
The magpie is really good-looking, and I looked at her side face, a little distracted.
She realized I was looking at her and covered her mouth and smiled, "What do you see, it's the first time we've met?" ”
I realized I was a bit out of shape, and I coughed twice and told her the name of a neighborhood that I had lived in for almost twenty years.
The magpie clicked on the navigation, started the vehicle and drove out.
We chatted with each other along the way, I tried not to think about those things, after Wang Li's incident, my feelings for magpies have become very complicated now, and I don't know how to sort it out, so I simply don't speak.
The magpie kept asking me what was delicious and fun in this place, and when I saw that I didn't say much, I didn't speak much.
Actually, I was ashamed of her, I knew this in my heart, I put part of the blame on the magpie, and then told myself that she was also wrong about these things, very fucked-up thoughts, but I really thought like that at the time, otherwise I wouldn't have become like this.
According to the doctor, it's a fucking psychological problem, and I also know that all of this has nothing to do with the magpie, and Yang Yuan's death has nothing to do with the magpie, but I just think that Yang Yuan was shot through the chest to save the magpie, and Wang Li's death has nothing to do with the magpie, after all, the purpose of the magpie was to save me and I had to shoot and kill Wang Li, but I just think that Wang Li's death was caused by her, in fact, think about it, if anyone else would do that, do I want everyone to hate and live with hatred for the rest of their lives?
The car drove to the entrance of the community, and I opened the door and walked down to take off the luggage in the back seat.
"Thank you, would you like to go to my house for a meeting?" I don't know which tendon is wrong, and suddenly such a sentence pops up.
The magpie sat in the driver's seat and laughed: "It's a little early to meet the parents." ”
I lowered my head: "Then, let's contact when we have time." ”
I wanted to leave when I was done.
"Hey!" The magpie suddenly called at me.
I stopped and looked back at her.
"You still hate me?" The magpie said this with a serious expression, as if trying to find the answer in my face.
I nodded, then shook my head, "Go back, thank you, and have time to treat you to dinner." ”
After I said this, I turned around and left, and my mind was really messed up.
I didn't expect it to come true again many years later, during which I had a girlfriend on a blind date, and from the moment I realized the breakup, the magpie knew it, and she definitely knew, after all, I mentioned it when we met.
And then now, time flies quickly, almost in the blink of an eye, and more than three years have passed.
I put away my phone and carefully cleaned the room, the room has been a mess of all kinds of garbage and wine bottles all this time, because the magpie is coming, I don't want her to laugh at me for becoming this virtue again, I want to clean it quickly.
Some of the diligence in the army remained on me, and it took me half an hour to work hard, and the room looked much more comfortable.
Then I happily bought some vegetables, and when everything was done, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon.
The phone rang, and I saw the magpie's call, and I answered it.
"Hey! Silly cripple! Guess where I am? ”
"Huh? Where are you? ”
At this time, the door suddenly felt like it had been kicked.
"Open the door!"
I laughed and walked over to open the door.
The magpie stood in the doorway with a smile on his face, carrying a bag in his hand.
She walked in and looked around: "Oh~ This is your nest, it's not bad, I know I'm coming, it's very clean." ”
The magpie walked in and looked at the five or six dishes on the table and exclaimed, "I can't see it, you still know how to do this." ”
I scratched my head: "You have to know something to live alone, hey, by the way, what are you carrying in your hand?" ”
When I came in, I saw that she was carrying a plastic bag in her hand, and the contents were square, and it was not a bar.
The magpie sat on the bench and took out the contents: "What's so embarrassing to eat yours." I would like to express it as well! Look, that's good stuff! ”
I saw two bottles of red wine, and I knew it was expensive just by the packaging.
"What? Fight with me, I only drank with my friends at noon, and I still drink, but I can't drink you!"
Magpie frowned: "Don't dare? ”
I untied my apron, went to the kitchen and washed my hands, took out two large cups and came out and sat opposite the magpie: "What don't I dare, if you dare, I dare." ”
"Such a big cup, full?"
I nodded: "Okay, full!" ”
