Chapter 445: If it weren't for the water leak upstairs
Forget it, Li Mu shook his head, thinking to himself, the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and there are always people who will do the things that deliberately provoke others to get angry on the road and then create others to violate the rules and regulations to defraud the insurance, you can't tell if they are just for the premiums of less than a few hundred yuan and a thousand yuan.
After the traffic police dealt with it, they said that they were looking for an insurance company, and some damage was within 2,000 yuan, and the insurance company directly made a quick payment, and the other driver would soon receive the money, and then find a friend's repair shop to pay a little tax, open a maintenance invoice, and the remaining part of the money was earned by themselves.
This kind of saying is also called touching porcelain, whoever meets it is unlucky.
The day's rain finally stopped completely after the early hours of the morning, and the road was still damp, and it didn't look like it was going to dry before the sun came out.
After Li Mu parked the car, he leaned down to check the tires and the chassis of the vehicle, because the chassis of this car was not high, Li Mu actually couldn't see anything clearly.
He thought, because he was so busy that he lost his breath, he hadn't washed the car since he came back on New Year's Day, and if he really hit Xiao Hei, if he bleed, something might stick to the chassis.
Although so many days have passed, the probability of discovering these again should be very low.
Li Mu got up, locked the car door tightly, and thought to himself, no matter what, it should be to go to the shop to repaint, in short, after dawn, send the car to the repair shop near the community and say that it is a maintenance, and when the car is lifted, you can see the situation under the chassis.
Be sure to take a look, no matter what the result is.
Li Mu's determination is as big as the moon in the sky, he has an impulse to coexist with uneasiness and determination, he feels that if Xiao Hei's death can't figure out whether it is related to him, he will always be so confused, always worried, and his memory will get worse and worse.
While thinking that I almost beat up the fat man in the afternoon, I thought that it must be my own imagination, and I shouldn't have beaten him.
It's so messy, it's terrible.
After locking the car door, Li Mu suddenly heard a cat meow, which came from the bushes at his feet.
It rained for a day, and the edge of the flower bed was not only damp but also a lot of dirt splashed on the ground, and the light was dim, and it was not easy for Li Mu to lean out and see clearly.
I thought about whether I wanted to turn on the flashlight of my mobile phone to see it clearly, but I was afraid that the light would suddenly be too bright and scare the cat.
It would be even more impossible to turn on the headlights to illuminate them, and it would be estimated that even the rats would hide.
Li Mu listened quietly, and walked forward little by little against the flower bed, and the meow seemed to be getting closer and closer, and it seemed to be getting louder and louder.
But Li Mu didn't believe that this sound really came from a living cat, because he would hear this kind of cat meow whenever he came home these days.
At the end of the semi-circular flower bed, there is a pomelo tree that has not been planted for a few years, the pomelo tree at night looks black, and there are still a few pomelos on it that have not been photographed, and it is estimated that they can only look at it and cannot eat it.
This corner is usually rarely walked into, because the grapefruit tree is already a dead end here, more than a year ago the property put a bench next to the flower bed, but later found that this corner alone put a bench just to let the homeless have one more place to sleep, and this sleeping place is still a dead corner that the community monitoring can not see.
It is estimated that after the owner complained, the property dismantled the bench a few days later.
There are still four holes in the ground that have been filled in haphazardly, which were originally used to hold the benches.
Li Mu then looked under the tree at night, and suddenly he saw two yellow bright spots, and then looked closely, it was a pair of yellow eyes.
"Meow."
This time, Li Mu heard it clearly, it was a cat meow that was so real that it couldn't be more real.
Li Mu turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone and covered his eyes with his hands.
When I got closer, I saw that the kitten, which had been brown and black patterns, was curled up on the ground, looking like it was injured.
Li Muzhen wanted to ask it, "Didn't you eat cat food with Xiao Hei before?" How the hell did Blackie die? ”
Li Mu almost blurted out, but when the words came to his mouth, he still endured it, asking such a question to a cat, if the cat could answer him, the world would be even more disturbing.
I'm not that stupid either.
While thinking, Li Mu reached out and touched the kitten, but the kitten didn't resist, just meowed, and barked a few times weakly.
Li Mu thought about whether to take her home, and thought that after all, it was a wild cat in the community, and it was not a way to bring her back, so he simply found a box for him to live in.
Thinking of this, Li Mu returned to the car, opened the trunk and took out the shoebox containing sneakers, then ran back to the grapefruit tree, gently picked up the kitten and put it in the box. The kitten was wet, and Li Mu thought that it might not have eaten or was sick, so he blamed himself for his bad memory and went back to the car to take a little cat food from the trunk.
"Eat, these should be enough for you to eat, and I'll come back to see you tomorrow morning."
"Meow."
After doing this, Li Mu's heart was very quiet, he walked in the night, feeling the quietest moment of the day around the sea. I have lived in this community for several years and have never found the community garden so quiet at night.
The fountain was lightly splashed, and the lights were turned off for most of the time, leaving only the most two or three tiny yellow lights reflecting on the water.
Li Mu did not go home directly, but detoured around the walking path in the direction of the fountain.
The cobblestones on the walking path are hard in winter, but after a day of rain, they regain some softness, and they don't slip on the soles of your feet.
He suddenly felt a sense of relief, remembering a line from the movie If a person can't sleep, he won't really be awake.
Now he felt that he was probably really awake, the dark pink clouds in the sky, and the sound of flowers and plants in the wind at night, the sound of the creek, and the sound of every fountain activation.
After his body and mind were comfortable and his brain was awake, Li Mu felt that as long as he had a good night's sleep, those terrible pictures and uncontrollable anger before would definitely disappear.
He remembered what the doctor had said, "Get a good night's sleep first, and then make sure you come back for a follow-up appointment." ”
Yes, such a doctor is really easy to do, the patient said that he wanted to control his temper for most of the day, he was angry, and he was afraid that he would not be able to help beating people, he just listened, followed you, and finally told you to sleep well first.
Otherwise, take some medicine and sleep well.
Li Mu laughed, just sleep to cure all diseases.
But if you want to ensure a good night's sleep, you can't do it for the time being, Li Mu thought to herself, then try to get a good night's sleep or two, and then wait for the company's project to stabilize, and then slowly adjust your life and rest.
After having a plan, Li Mu was a little more energetic, so he walked towards home easily.
Li Mu was still in a good mood the moment before approaching the bathroom, but I don't know what's wrong, as soon as he approached the bathroom, Li Mu heard a strange sound again, and then saw water flowing down the wall.
The other thing is that the strange smell in the bathroom has changed from weird to fishy.
Li Mu wanted to ask Qiu Tong if she had noticed this strange smell, but she was really busy lately and didn't have time to talk to Qiu Tong at all.
Li Mu decided to send a WeChat message tomorrow to ask his wife about this matter, or, you're welcome, go to the property to talk about it as soon as he wakes up, and then go upstairs to see if there is a leak under the floor tiles of the owner's house.
If things drag on, they will consume energy, this is what Li Mu has been saying to Xiaodi and other employees of the company, don't drag out the small things and don't do them, and when the small things accumulate too much, you can't do it. At that time, you want to hide, but you can't hide at all, these accumulated little things will become a trouble that consumes your energy every day, and only one by one is the only correct way.
Growing up and working and reading as a child are actually the same truth, today algebra is not good to put it away, tomorrow the English words are not familiar with the thinking of putting it down, a month later began to learn geometry, the result of algebra has no time to review, and then the optics are not learned well on the electricity can not keep up, a small hole is not filled, even the top students have become a scumbag one day.
This is especially true after work, many people think that some people are born excellent, have a high IQ, or are as talented as they say in the TV show.
Contrary to common sense, those who are more down-to-earth, more unpretentious, and look more clumsy, but who are conscientious, never procrastinate or make excuses, and never pile up troubles, are able to achieve career success step by step in the company, and everyone is more willing to cooperate with people who are so planned and can do things strictly according to the plan.
Li Mu has always been such a person, people think that he is highly talented, highly educated and highly intelligent, but in fact, he knows that behind these is his study and work habits over the years.
It's just that lately, because I'm too tired or because of the constant quarrel with Qiu Tong, my work habits have become a little chaotic.
Maybe this is the so-called husband and wife will become each other after a long time, and some of each other's habits will be infected with each other.
Qiu Tong is a very good wife, a very good woman, but she also seems to like to quarrel, and is becoming more and more impatient.
Li Mu first turned on the shower on the bathtub, and then turned on the faucet in front of the makeup mirror, wanting to wash his face before the water was hot.
The cold water flowed out, making a sobering sound, and when he reached out to catch some water, Li Mu found that his two hands were covered with red blood stains.
This is
Li Mu hurriedly looked in the mirror, raised his chin and took a look at his nose, and after making sure that he definitely didn't have a nosebleed, he quickly understood where these blood stains came from.
It wasn't his own blood, it was the blood of the cat in the neighborhood just now.
It looked so weak because it was injured.
Li Mu simply took a shower and went to bed to get ready to rest, and glanced at Qiu Tong again, this time the wound on her face seemed to be better, but there were many blood marks on her exposed arms.
Li Mu shook his head, impossible, this is not what I did.
Although he denied it, Li Mu was still distressed and couldn't believe that it really had nothing to do with him, but obviously he didn't have a chance to be together, how could it be him?
The more he thought about it, the more he didn't understand, Li Mu fell asleep, and when he woke up, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.
He jumped out of bed like a giant rabbit, went into the bathroom and looked at it, and the smell was still there, so he washed in the bathroom in the other bedroom and put on his sweatpants and sweater and went upstairs.
Ding Dong Ding Dong Ding Dong.
After a doorbell rang, a young girl in her 20s opened the door.
"Who?" The girl doesn't look like she's woken up yet.
Li Mu couldn't care so much, so he barely suppressed his anger and said the leakage and smell in the bathroom in one breath, as for the attitude, Li Mu felt that it was quite polite.
"Huh? Leaking? I can't. The girl said to Li Mu with round eyes.
"What can't be? If it's not a leak in your home, it's a leak in the property sewer pipe under your bathroom. Li Mu said.
"No, this house is 90,000 square meters, it won't be so shoddy, how many years has it been, and the sewer will leak? It's not as good as those old husbands' rooms. The girl grumbled rudely.
This complaint is also reasonable, and Li Mu simply complained with him.
After complaining, the girl suddenly stared at Li Mu's face, and then shouted into the room, "Sister, come and see, isn't this the Li Mu you like?" ”
Sister?
Before Li Mu could react, he only heard a rush of footsteps, and then two girls who looked the same and dressed the same appeared in front of Li Mu.
"Twins?" Li Mu asked.
"Well, though, I don't like you, I like the other male guest on your show, the healer named Liu Shihua, he is so good and gentle." The girl looked obsessed, and after speaking, she smiled embarrassedly at Li Mu.
This one~
Li Mu could only smile with him, and suddenly sneezed.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Li Mu, come in and sit, it's cold outside, why aren't you wearing a coat?" It was another girl who was called an older sister who spoke.
"Okay, don't bother, I just want to say, your house is leaking, and our bathroom smells now, otherwise you can go down with me to take a look, okay?"
Li Mu proposed.
My sister nodded and politely agreed, turned around and ran to the room, took a white down jacket and put it on her body, and followed Li Mu to the elevator entrance.
"It's cold, isn't it?" The girl found the topic and said to Li Mu.
Li Mu nodded, he had no time to chat.
"Well, don't you know about the bathroom leak?" Li Mu asked.
The girl shook her head, "I don't know, you said to go and see, then go and see." ”
After speaking, the girl squinted her eyes at Li Mu and smiled.
"I'm sorry to ask, did you catch it here? I mean the homeowner or the tenant here? ”
"Huh? Think we're tenants? Oh, after all, a house of 90,000 yuan per square meter. The girl laughed again.
Li Mu, who was laughing, didn't understand what was going on at all.
After arriving at Li Mu's house, the girl said in amazement: "Wow, what a big house." ”
Li Mu's eyes darkened, and he thought, isn't this the same room type? How can it be so big?
"Ah, it looks like she's really married, what a pity." The girl was talking to herself and walking up and down the room, and she seemed to have walked everywhere except the bathroom.
"Oh my God, is this your wife? It seems that you are also a star, no wonder the host and judges always praise you for being a good man, and we female fans regard you as a standard for marriage partners. ”
The girl walked around twice before she remembered that she had come to see the bathroom, and said embarrassedly: "Well, where is the bathroom you are talking about?" ”
Li Mu stretched out his left hand and pointed to the girl in the direction of the bathroom, and the girl hurriedly agreed, "Oh, oh, oh, here." ”
"Do you smell it?" Li Mu asked.
As soon as the girl walked further, she immediately retreated, "What a bad smell, what's the matter, is there something dead in it?" ”
"Huh? Do you think so? "It's rude to say a girl, but it's a good point, and the smell of dead things fills the bathroom.
"Well, I think it is, too, so I came to bother you early in the morning, wanting to see if it's a leak in your house, because the sewer leaks and the smell is always not good."
"yes, but our house won't smell that bad, how is that possible?"
After the girl finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the door, and said anxiously as she walked: "Mr. Li Mu, you and I will go up and have a look, I don't have a sense of direction, the house is such a thing, although I understand that everyone often says, the same house number is the same room type, but the floor is different, and the structure is exactly the same, in fact, let me go to two different floors to see two different rooms, I have no way to intuitively understand that these two houses are the same in structure."
Probably because I never cared about this, anyway, as long as people's homes have been renovated, and there are more unique styles of the owner, I don't understand the original structure of the house, or let my sister help you see, she is studying architectural design, and she has always been very talented in this area. ”
The girl was so polite, of course Li Mu nodded in agreement, the two did not wait for the elevator but went up directly from the corridor, and the younger sister opened the door and invited Li Mu in, and then took him to visit the room.
"I'm sorry, we have changed this house, the original bathroom on the side of the master bedroom is now a study, because I like to read, so I changed the bathroom to a study, this three-bedroom, two-living room and two-bathroom room is now slightly different from your room type." My sister leaned against the wall and said.
Indeed, this location has now been transformed into a study, a clean study, not to mention a leak, not even a drop of water.
My sister took Li Mu to another bathroom, it seems that the original independent bathroom has been transformed into two connected bathrooms with a slightly smaller area, such a design is not common, and ordinary people rarely directly change a bathroom into two symmetrical rooms, unless the area is too large to be used, or there are particularly high requirements for hygiene.
