219 Self-defeating

Alcohol has become my only antidote to my troubles!

I started drinking uncontrollably, every day and every night! I drank almost all the small bars around because I was already "infamous"!

It's not that I don't pay for my drinking, or that I don't have good drinks. When I drink, I always drink quietly and alone, and I don't bother others. However, after getting drunk, I have a different virtue......

The biggest problem with my alcohol is that it breaks, and I can't remember anything. Everything I did and said that night needed to be told to me afterwards, but I could only listen to it like a story, and I couldn't recall it at all!

As a result, all kinds of drunken scenes, fights, and stolen wallets and mobile phones were staged on me one after another, which made the bar owners have a very bad impression of me. So much so that every time I had to walk into a bar, I had to go past the boss first. If I'm already on his blacklist, "I'm sorry! We're not in your business here! ”

Actually, I always feel inexplicable, because I never seem to know the boss, and I can't remember if there is any trouble between me and him.

Fortunately, the provincial city is so big, there is still no shortage of bars. I continue this drunken life, and only alcohol can make me forget my troubles for a while!

It's also good that I still have the fried ghost, an iron buddy. I can't remember exactly how many times I bothered him, but most of the time he told me where he found me last night and what happened.

Sometimes it's in a bar, more often it's on the main road, and occasionally a few times in front of a massage parlor, oh my! Have I fallen to the point of drunken promiscuity?

I don't remember anything that happened, though. It's okay, worry-free!

These are not the only consequences of alcoholism. Because of alcoholism, my Yin Gong has long been wasted. Because of alcoholism, I finally lost my last job.

The only time I don't drink is when I'm going to work at Yuanbao Tower, which is the only position I can still hold on to. But the alcohol made me lose my old ability to think, I was slow to react, and my hands were weak and I was in a trance. In addition, my own head is always cranky and inattentive, which leads to repeated mistakes, and I have been criticized by Jin Dasco several times.

After barely holding on for a month, Jin Dasco finally couldn't hold it anymore.

He left me down again to talk to me. However, he was very understanding of my situation and offered to let me "rest" for a while.

Jin Dasco said: "I'm not scrambling you squid, but giving you time to adjust." When you feel like you're back in the loop, you're ready to come back to work! ”

I thought about it and agreed. It's always bad to cause trouble to others like this, not to mention that Jin Dasco has taken good care of me. However, I don't know if I can recover from this blow!

So, I continued to sink and stopped looking for a job, so I slept during the day and drank at night. Having lost one of my last sources of income, the number on my bank card kept shrinking. But I don't care anymore because I don't see my future at all.

Until I met Yue Xiang.

That day, I got out of bed at 3 p.m., struggled to clean myself up, and left the hotel to eat. After eating, I saw that it was not dark yet, but it was almost there, so I walked all the way to the distance, looking for any other bars that I hadn't visited.

Just as I was casually wandering around, Yue Xiang recognized me. He was working as a chef in a nearby restaurant, just after his morning shift. I'm glad to see him again, especially since he seems to be doing well.

Yue Xiang asked me about my current situation, but I didn't want to tell him about my troubles, so I said vigorously: "It's good!" It's all good! ”

As we chatted, we talked about the conversation with our classmates who were studying at the New South China Technical School at that time. I suddenly remembered that Lu Zheng's kid still owes me thousands of dollars!

"He's asking you to borrow money too?" Yue Xiang asked in surprise.

"Also? Did he borrow it from you? "I was even more surprised.

"Well, I borrowed three thousand from him back and forth."

"Mine more, borrowed a total of six thousand!"

"As far as I know, Lu Zheng and many people have borrowed money."

"What kind of disease does he have, spending so much money?"

Yue Xiang began to smile bitterly and said to me, "Big brother, don't you know yet? ”

"Know what?"

"Lu Zheng, this kid doesn't have any illness at all!"

"! Is this bastard lying to me? ”

Yue Xiang nodded and said, "I heard that after graduating, he began to follow a group of rotten boys in society, and he actually learned to take drugs!" Later, he was arrested by the police and quit drugs for half a month, but after coming out, he continued to smoke! ”

"That's what I mean!" I exclaimed, "I saw that his face was wrong that day, and I thought he was sick, but it turned out that he was taking drugs!" ”

"He doesn't go to work anymore, he has no money to take drugs, so he looks for people to borrow money everywhere, and he has no intention of paying it back!"

"Where does the kid live now?"

"I've been to his restaurant once, and I know where it is!"

"Let's go! Let's go find him together! "I haven't had a good temper lately, otherwise I wouldn't have been drunk and like to fight with people.

"Forget it, big brother!" Yue Xiang persuaded me, "Just a few thousand yuan, don't hurt the feelings of classmates and brothers!" ”

"If he really treats me as a brother and a big brother, I should wake him up!" I rolled up my sleeves and dragged Yue Xiang away, "Money is a trivial matter, but we can't let him continue to degenerate like this!" ”

It's ironic to think about it later, I can't figure out my own affairs, and I still want to teach others? I have fallen myself, and I still look down on others and have fallen!

Lu Zheng's family is in the provincial capital, and because his family also runs a restaurant, we found it as soon as we opened the navigation. But when Yue Xiang and I went to the door of the restaurant opened by Lu Zhengjia, we saw that the door was closed, and a notice was posted on it: Transfer!

Since it is a transfer notice, the contact number must also be left. I dialed the above number, and the person who answered it was not Lu Zheng, but the voice of a middle-aged woman.

"Are you looking for Lu Zheng?" As soon as she heard that we were not here to discuss business but to find Lu Zheng, her tone changed.

"Yes!"

"How much does he owe you?" He asked directly.

"Add a piece of nine thousand!"

"I am Lu Zheng's mother. Now that you've found the door of our restaurant, you should see that the restaurant is closed, right? Lu's mother's tone was very helpless, "In order to pay back the money and see a doctor for him, our old couple even used up the capital to open a store." If you agree, I'll give you an IOU first, and I'll pay you back when I've sold the store!" ”

I listened to Lu Mu's words, but I felt embarrassed. I said: "Actually, we are not in a hurry to ask Lu Zheng to return the money, we just want to talk to him well, and we don't want him to go astray again!" ”

"What is your relationship with Lu Zheng?" Mother Lu asked when she heard my sincere tone.

"Classmates! Students from the chef class of New South China Technical School! ”

"Oh, if you really want to see him, come here, he's now hospitalized in the Hospice Hospital!"

"Hospice Hospital?"

Yue Xiang and I were both taken aback. Hospice Hospital is a psychiatric hospital, and ordinary patients don't go there to see it!

Lu Zheng's specific situation is inconvenient for Lu Mu to say on the phone, just let us go over and see for ourselves. Yue Xiang and I hurried to Anning Hospital, found Lu's mother, and also met Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng was locked alone in a small room, his hands and feet were tied, and only his head could move. He sat in the innermost corner of the room, drooling from the corners of his mouth, smirking, and pushing his head against the wall. However, the walls of the room were covered with soft cushions, which should not hurt him.

However, I suddenly felt that this scene was familiar!

Such a room, such a cushion, and a restraint belt for tying Lu Zheng, haven't I also enjoyed this kind of treatment?

Yue Xiang wanted to greet Lu Zheng through the glass window of the small room. But Lu Zheng didn't seem to know him at all, so he kept looking at him stupidly and laughing, and his saliva was wet all over his chest.

Mother Lu wiped her tears and said to us: "Alas, my son! finally forced him to finish the chef class, and he planned to let him come back to inherit the restaurant. But I don't want him to stay still, and run out every day to fool around with a bunch of indiscriminate people! It's either drinking, fighting, or going drag racing! ”

"If only this was it, then he actually became addicted to drugs again! So he came to us every day to ask for money, and if he couldn't get it, he threw things and lost his temper! As a last resort, his father found someone from the police station and sent him to a detention center to quit drugs for half a month! ”

"But after he came out of the detention center, he didn't change at all, and he continued to suck! When I ran out of money, I looked for someone to borrow it everywhere, and finally everyone came to the door, and his father and I had to pay it back! ”

"Then how did he become like this now?" I asked Lu Mu.

"What else could it be? I overdosed on drugs, and my brain was sucked out! Lu Mu cried.

I was silent.

Lu Zheng and I have been going through pretty much the same thing lately: being detained, doing stupid things, giving up on ourselves, being tied up and locked up in a small room. The only difference is that he is on drugs and I am an alcoholic!

Originally, I thought of teaching Lu Zheng a good lesson and persuading him to change his ways, but now it seems that there is nothing I can do. Lu's mother offered to write us an IOU again. Yue Xiang and I both refused, saying let's just forget about it!

After leaving Anning Hospital, Yue Xiang and I said goodbye. I was walking alone on the road again, and my mood was even worse. I seem to have been touched by Lu Zheng's tragic end, but if I wake up and change my ways, hehe, I still can't do it!

So, I walked into the first bar I passed and continued to numb myself with alcohol.
