Chapter 8: Peach Blossom Killing (3)
At the beginning of the next semester, I used my savings to buy my first mobile phone with a scholarship.
Later, some people ridiculed this kind of straight board machine, saying that it can be used as a brick in the pocket, and when it encounters an obstacle, it can be directly slapped on the other party's head. But anyway, this model was quite okay at the time, at least it was still an octave.
"In case something is wrong." Shen Sibo took it over and held it in his hand: "You just dial it to me--"
"Dial it to you, and you won't have a meeting?" I jumped down from the flower bed at the entrance of the first church and looked at him opposite, we all had three or four classes this morning, the first and sixth floors.
"Meeting--" he played with my phone, "I have to go over to turn on the oil." "
I want to say, then you just don't open it, and I won't go out. After a while, forget it, you have to be sensible, I am also a student cadre, and there are many situations where time is not under my own control, so I should not force it.
"I'll tell you if it's okay, it's all been talking in the forum for a long time, and they think I'm a man." I explained to him: "Besides, everyone has a successful career, and in terms of terms, the cost of crime is high -- I'm not that charismatic." "
"What about Xie Duan? Why didn't Xie Duan accompany you? "
"She doesn't mix with forums, and besides, she's serious, and she refuses to play a day of self-study."
He crackled and beat the snake without raising his head.
At this moment, I remembered something, and I was suddenly excited, and I snatched the phone back, Shen Sibo was startled by me: "What are you doing?" "
Blushing, I replied, "There is privacy, just remembered." "
He said, "Oh! Scold! Scold! Let's hear it. "
Just kidding, if you want me to tell him, I grouped his number in the "family" column? I ignored him and shook in place: "I seem to be fat, what do you say?" "
"What should I say?"
"You say one to try?"
He smiled. At this time, Zhuo He came from behind: "Hey, sister-in-law Shen! "
It's rare that he and Xie Duan didn't look down on each other last Christmas, and they didn't see much embarrassment after that, what should we do when they see us.
I was about to casually agree, but Shen Sibo straightened up, his tone was understated but basically empty: "Don't talk nonsense. "
All of a sudden, I felt unhappy in my mind.
In the past, Zhuo He called me that, and he would say the same, but for some reason, it was different.
Zhuo He didn't have anything, he probably got used to it: "I'll go over first and take a seat in front of you?" "
"Wait, let's go." Shen Sibo turned his face back to me and said, "Anyway, pay attention to yourself." "
Today's class is Writing Theory, Elective, and a large class of six classes.
Don't associate the writing course offered by the law department with anything romantic, this course mainly teaches you to write essays, arguments, and communication materials, and the Chinese characters are tied up and lie there well, and the pig's head is as boring as my eyes.
Generally, this kind of class, as far as the eye can see, is a grand occasion of a crooked piece, and it is a nap in the spring light. But not at the moment.
The female lecturer was about thirty years old, and I once heard a small lecture on "Poetry and Dreams", which was called a passionate and possessed Sappho. It was not easy for her to teach us to write these water-infused porks to complete the teaching task, and the poems probably couldn't make anyone settle down.
She was turning off the DVD and said to us with a smile, "Let's talk about what you think of the movie "Mandarin Dream Revisited". "
The student who was called said, "It's vulgar, but it's good-looking." "
"What about "The Long Farewell"?"
These two are movies about amnesia, the former is happy, the latter is melancholy - the woman waits for her lover to return to the battlefield, forcing the man to recover her memory, the man thinks she is strange and terrifying, breaks free and escapes, and finally she helplessly looks at his back and leaves.
"Okay, please submit a draft of the document to my mailbox according to the requirements of the textbook before Monday, the length is not limited, and it is okay to copy it, but please align the format." Before class, she explained to us: "I also have to hand in my homework to the school, please give me face." "
"I prefer the latter to me, the beauty of the mutilation." After she finished speaking, she packed up her things, took the disc in her hand, and sighed again: "Other people have always been by your side, but in fact, they can never come back." "
The school bell rang at this time.
I was about to stand up when I was suddenly shocked by this sentence, staring at her through the crowd, and suddenly she wouldn't move. The heart is very sad, and the fundus of the eyes is hot.
Shen Sibo has always been by my side, but have I ever had him? Have I ever understood his mind? One day he's leaving, how do I get him back?
In the afternoon, I was still thinking about that sentence sullenly, always by my side, but never coming back.
As a result, I got lost when I got off the bus, and the BAR was next to the Linghe River, and the specific location, Comrade Shooting Sky Wolf told me that I could find it as soon as I looked for it. When I saw him when I saw him, I had to tell him that he was a lawyer, and his words were so unreliable, so he might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes.
I am still a native of Lingcheng, near the Linghe River, how many fragrant legends, there are many twists and turns of side streets, alleys, and melancholy, this is a fat powder river full of hearts.
I didn't come much here, and I went around the river twice, and finally I was in a hurry and grabbed someone and asked, "Do you know where the "little mess" is?" "
The other party was shocked and muttered a string, and I looked at it, foreign silver.
I was anxious when my phone rang, an unfamiliar number, and I was rude to it: "Hey! "
The other party paused for two seconds: "Cato? "
The voice sounded slightly unexpected, and the accident was a normal reaction, and the degree was light because he was able to close it.
"Yes, yes. It's me. I'm a woman. "
"I know." He was silent: "I heard it." "
"Are you—a wolf?"
"No, I'll come out to pick you up. Where are you now? "
"What's the position--" I looked around and fanned the wind with my hand: "There is a photographer next to me, a person holding a child, a--"
There are so many people, I'm dazzled.
"Stop." He interrupted me: "I see you. "
"Huh?" I'm still looking around.
His coda finally reveals a little bit of really strange, and funny emotion: "It's you." "
What words.
The moment I turned around, I saw him.
The narrowest part of the Linghe River is only seven or eight meters, and he is standing seven or eight meters away, with broad shoulders and a thin waist, a well-defined face, and tough facial features.
"Qi, Senior Brother Qi?" I was so surprised that I could only say this one word.
"You're on the wrong side." He said on the phone.
"What to do."
"There's a bridge ahead, come here."
I held my phone and thought of the inexplicable abrupt attitude towards him a long time ago, and I was a little confused for a while. Nineteen and a half years old, I think eighteen years old me is too reckless, too young, I am sorry for her.
"How's it going?" I asked.
"Okay." His voice was particularly steady, unhurried and unhurried: "What about you?" "
We walked slowly and slowly across a river. The reflection of the weeping willow gently swayed in the water, and the tassels fluttered on the painting boat. The sun was warm and dappled on both sides. I say:
"Make do."
He walked around the kite shop, I swept away the long slanted wicker, he accommodated my steps, I accommodated his steps. You can't walk that bridge.
"Luo Ting is doing well, in Shanghai." I said again.
"Hmm."
"Are you still in touch with her?"
"Occasionally."
"...... I should have thought, QX, hehe. "
"What about you." He said slowly: "You must destroy Carthage? "
He knows that, too. I laughed, "Yes, you must destroy Carthage." "
I've been chatting on the forum for more than half a year, and I only matched up with their real people today.
The wolf looks very sven, and the crooked character of the Internet is like two people, the king of law is a fat man who resembles Dora Amon, smiling and inconspicuous.
In addition, there are a few other people here, men and women, and I have talked a few words to some extent. This is a circle of small-scale activities, meeting from time to time, people are constantly joining, people are constantly leaving, there are only a few cores, the forum has been playing together in the early days, it can be seen that they have a casual and tacit understanding with each other.
Fu Hui, the moderator of this edition, was in charge of introducing me one by one, he was the eldest in the small group, and he was only twenty-six or seven, working in the district court. When it was time to enjoy it, he said to me, "You know each other, right? This Qi inspector also happened to be at that point, and let him pick you up--but if you knew in advance that Cato was a beautiful girl......"
This is how they call each other out of boredom - "Director X" for the law firm, "Manager X" for the company, "Justice X" for the court, and so on.
I was really shocked when I first heard it, how good it was?
Later, I understood that this is purely true, young people who have not been in society for a long time have nothing to amuse themselves.
I often read in novels that the omnipotent barrister in his twenties, and the prosecutor who met the Buddha in his twenties, all of them are like the birth of Themis, the goddess of law.
But in the actual operation process, I am afraid that it is basically a small probability event that is slightly higher than lying at home and being struck by ball lightning for no reason. Not to mention that the examiner may not be able to pass the exam just after graduation, even if the practitioner certificate is in hand, there are still young lawyers on the street who can't find the source of the case, and in a place like the court procuratorate, where you can be an assistant officer at the age of 30, it is already a great face for you to be given by the system.
What seems to outsiders to be a glamorous profession may not be so beautiful on the inside. There is no shortage of people who are sleepy and think about change, the difference is that there is a bottom line to change careers, and there is no bottom line to change hearts, and that's it.
A senior sister surnamed Sun here said goodbye to her professional background completely, and she is currently doing insurance and her income is not bad, but later I noticed that when the people around her talked about the latest reform of the regulations, she often looked a little stunned.
At the moment, I have only just met them, and I can't let them go, so I said seriously, "It's nice to meet you." After saying that, I thought to myself, this is stupid enough.
At this time, Qi Xiang got up and said, "I'll go get the cards, what do you want to have fun." "
"What cards does Zhuang Ning play?" The fat man, the king of law, asked me, "Today is you." "
"I can do anything."
Another person said: "How to fight, more than a dozen, it's better to sing K." "
Sven shot the wolf and retorted: "Went to your solo concert? Don't go. "
I gradually relaxed, you see, these people have heard the same thing as me, but they also play cards, they also sing K, and sometimes they have to struggle with what to play.
Senior Sister Bai proposed, why don't you play murder.
About 04 years later, this game has become very common, I had a private party after work, someone proposed to kill after dinner, and immediately someone followed, so old-fashioned? How many years ago.
Not that many years ago. It was just starting to catch on at that time.
There are not enough people, we start playing with the simplest single killer, such a test of eloquence and judgment, everyone here will not think, as soon as you learn to play very well.
As soon as I played, people let go, and I forgot that I was a senior in the industry in front of me, analyzing, arguing, arguing, and swearing by slapping the table when I was excited.
Later, it gradually escalated, fighting two killers and two policemen, Sven said, in the last game, should we bet?
Money?
Isn't it - see, there are a lot of people now, isn't it one loss and two losses, if you lose, go to the middle of the hall to announce, the two of us, today finally broke through the worldly concept together, please bless everyone.
...... Really, I should have known that this person was Sven Qiwai, one of the scum, and it was not safe to play any cards.
Who's against being a little more entertaining? All of them are opportunists waiting to watch others lose their adults, thinking that it is not their turn. In short, I am not embarrassed to say that I will not participate, I can only consciously talk to the unknown - don't draw the police or the killer, Amitabha, God please bless me.
But what is the famous Murphy's Law, if something bad is possible, no matter how unlikely it is, it will always happen - deal the cards, I grab my hand and look at it - K, KILLER.
What a bolt from the bolt, it's a white set.
As soon as the judge said "Killer, please open your eyes", I opened my eyes resignedly, and met the gaze of Qi Xiang.
I've been thinking about it before, if I lose, should I pretend to be dizzy or play a hooligan? As I said, if I'm not bored, I can't afford to lose.
But looking at him at this moment, my heart has gradually stabilized.
Although it is not very pleasant to get along with him every time, I also admit that for some reason, this person always makes you feel that everything is okay and everything is under control.
In the second round, I was exposed, the fat man jumped to the police to testify against me, some people believed and some people questioned, when the votes were balanced, they all thought about it, and then calmly said, I also choose Zhuang Ning.
In this way, I was out of the game for the time being, and in the next round he killed the fat man neatly, and it did not arouse suspicion. There are only three people left in the next round, Sven, him, and Senior Sister Bai, who is a civilian.
The fat man was in a hurry next to him, and he snorted again, and the judge said coldly, you are dead, stop it.
Senior Sister Bai was among the two of them, and said to Sven Ren without hesitation, Qi Xiang was with us all the way before, so I concluded that you were a killer.
Sven and the fat man both wailed, and I screamed excitedly, ahhhh
I won't go into details about how these two fulfilled their promises, but I almost had stomach cramps laughing that day.
After dinner, AA system, the plate was removed and I looked at the time, half past eight. I said, "Guys, I'm going to leave first, and the curfew won't wait for anyone." "
Fu Hui received a call from his girlfriend at this time, and he was also anxious to leave: "Why don't you get here here today?" "
I was embarrassed: "No, you go on." "
"It's okay, it's going to be a long time coming."
It's dark, but the Linghe River is clear as day, the painting boat on the river is lit up, the woman's graceful voice comes from the teahouse, Suzhou Pingdan, the sorrows and joys of the world float on the thin four strings.
I, Qi Xiang and Fu Moderator all the way, the latter said: "My car is in front, Qi check and go home, what about Zhuang Xiaomei?" Giving you a ride? "
Before I had time to excuse myself, Qi Xiang said, "No, I won't go back there, you can just send her." "
"What's the matter, the old man's work hasn't been done yet?"
Qi Xiang didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.
Fu Hui paused for a while and said: "In these systems, I am not bored, and I am also not bored, but it is stable, and it is not that there is no room for growth, and it is quite good to boil out." I'm not saying I don't believe in your power, outside...... Have you really figured it out? "
"I don't want to regret it."
"It's not because of her, is it?"
"You know me." Qi Xiang's voice was quite flat: "What do you say?" "
Fu Hui was silent for a few seconds: "It's good." "
Laughing again: "If I were three years younger...... Forget it, Sister Zhuang, come, I'll send you. "
"No, no, no."
"I'm not going to stop by if it's far away, so I'll send you to the subway station, come on, you're welcome." I can't be able to carry one today, how unreasonable. "
Fu Hui drove a white Fukang, I sat in the co-pilot, and I had nothing to say: "You and Senior Brother Qi, you have known each other for a long time?" "
"It's been a long time, yes." He thought for a moment: "It's been four or five years. "
"Qi is good." He said seriously: "A young man with a lot of ideas, Zhuang Xiaomei, if you don't have a boyfriend, you might as well consider it and wait for him for two years." "
"......"
He turned his head to look at me and smiled: "Joke joke, enjoy this person, you better not fall in love with him." "
When I arrived at school, I called Shen Sibo at the school gate.
"Hey." He rang for a while before answering, "Coming back?" "
I pretended not to hear: "Do you know Zhuang Ning, she is in my hands now." "
"......"
"Haha, do you still want to see her?"
"......"
"What's wrong? Are you in trouble? "
After about three seconds, he sighed, "It's okay, where are you?" "
"I'm walking to the dormitory."
"I'm here at the wooden bridge."
"What are you doing there?"
He didn't seem to turn his mind yet: "Huh? "
"What are you doing there, I ask?"
"I've met an acquaintance." He replied to his usual life: "Happy afternoon? "
"Afternoon? Haha, do you know who I met? "
He asked cooperatively, "Who?" "
"Qi Xiang, do you remember? I told you--"
"Impressions."
"He's in that group too, don't you think it's a coincidence? Oops, I was stupid at the time. "
"Huh."
A person is not in a state, is it perfunctory, and even he thinks he is answering seriously, but how can the other party not hear it, I paused and said, "Shen Sibo, what's wrong with you?" "
"......"
"Uncomfortable? Still in a bad mood? You wait for me, I'll go to you right away. "
"Don't, Zhuang Ning, don't." His voice was a little indescribable, like anxiety and exhaustion: "...... Don't do that. "
I was at the fork of the road, just about to walk to the bridge, he said this and stopped, the early spring evening breeze was coming, the joy of Fang Cai had long been left behind, I only felt cold at the moment, and at a loss: "Don't what? What's wrong with you, tell me. "
He didn't say anything for a moment.
I was standing there with my phone in my hand, and it suddenly occurred to me if it was because I came back late, if it was because I ran out in the afternoon to meet a group of strangers, and he thought I was frivolous? I thought about it for a while and cautiously opened my mouth: "Well, actually, the netizen gathering is not interesting at all, and I won't go in the future......"
Seriously, that's a. But I also admit it.
Shen Sibo finally reacted, he interrupted me but his tone was not abrupt, like a river smoothly cutting into another river: "It's okay, really, Zhuang Ning, you can also go back to the dormitory, and have a good rest." "
When I pushed open the bedroom door, my heart was still sullen, Xie Duan sat there, and quickly threw the paper ball into the paper basket, and turned to look at me: "So early?" "
"Is it early?" I closed the door and said, "It's past nine o'clock." "
"I mean...... It's nothing. She laughed, "How's the party?" "
"Don't mention it."
"......" she watched me walk in, threw my bag on the table, then poured herself a glass of water and sat down, she asked, "Boring?" "
"It's not." I took a sip of water and turned the cup around in my hand: "I called Shen Sibo when I came back just now, and he seemed to be unhappy. "
She seemed to laugh a little: "Because of this? "
"It's good because of this, but I don't think it's like it, so I don't say anything when I ask him." I sighed into the teacup, "Duanduan, I'm worried about his ......"
"Zhuang Ning, let me ask you a question." She looked up from the test paper and looked at me: "You have never been interested in anyone other than Shen Sibo?" "
I didn't want to: "No." "
She was dumbfounded, staring at me, as if there was a language trying to break free, but she endured it and finally had no mouth.
