Chapter 1 Crossing
"いつか光に向かう逆さまのbutterfly
君と髪を切る景の中..."
Next to the bed, the alarm of the mobile phone is getting louder and louder.
A hand stretched out from the quilt and groped left and right twice.
When I touched the phone, my fingers swiped and pulled, the alarm stopped abruptly, and the hand reached back into the quilt.
In the next second, the person on the bed sat up suddenly, her hair was messy like a chicken nest on her head, and there were deep dark circles under her eyes, frowning, and scanning everything around her in surprise.
What's the situation???
I saw her stretch out her hand and pat the side of her head, making a few muffled sounds of "bang, bang", and even some faint pain, her brows furrowed even tighter.
In the next second, the person on the bed suddenly disappeared in place, and with a flash, he stood by the windowsill of the bedroom.
With a "brush", the blackout curtains in the bedroom were opened, and the morning light outside the window splashed in at once, which was a little dazzling.
She squinted her eyes slightly to adjust to the light outside.
Outside the window, there are many high-rise buildings, busy traffic, and pedestrians on the road come and go in a hurry, which is very peaceful.
She poked her head out and watched for a long time before reluctantly withdrawing her eyes.
Then, I pushed open the bedroom door and walked briskly to the bathroom.
She splashed a handful of water on her face, standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom, she stared at the pale and bloodless face in the mirror, which was very similar to herself, and her consciousness was a little trance for a while.
She is Lian Yue and Lian Yue.
is 36-year-old Lian Yue and 26-year-old Lian Yue.
is Lian Yue, who has been struggling to survive for ten years in the last days, and Lian Yue, an ordinary office worker on the blue star.
To put it simply, she has just traveled to a parallel world and fused the memories of another self.
As someone who has been influenced by online literature since childhood, this is not a difficult thing to understand. The face in front of me is exactly the same as my self ten years ago, and the mixed memories in my mind are even more real.
It can be understood intellectually, but it does not mean that it can be accepted emotionally quickly. These are two different things.
Even in the past ten years, we are in the last days. She has lost many family members, friends, too much, and lived a life with today and no tomorrow, but she gritted her teeth and survived, and she was about to usher in the dawn of dawn.
Although the end times are not beautiful, she still has her younger brothers and sisters, as well as comrades-in-arms who fight side by side, and they are about to usher in new hope!
Instead, she fell on the eve of dawn, dying in a massive cleanup of mutant creatures.
She is not reconciled, such a peaceful era is the life that everyone has dreamed of many times in countless days and nights in the past ten years. She can achieve it on her own, with her younger siblings, with her comrades, with everyone.
"Cruel Angel のように
Juvenile myth になれ"
The ringtone of the mobile phone in the bedroom was faint, interrupting Lian Yue's thoughts.
Taking a deep breath, Lian Yue pulled the towel and wiped his face, and then walked towards the bedroom.
picked up the mobile phone from the bedside, and when I looked at the caller ID, it was "numbness", Lian Yue's hand stopped suddenly, and his eyes were suddenly moist, and he didn't dare to answer the call.
Her mother has been gone for seven years, and she has long been a child without a mother, and she has long forgotten what it is like to have a mother.
Lian Yue stared at the phone, the ringtone rang for a long, long time, and the phone screen slowly went out.
Before Lian Yue put down the phone, the screen lit up instantly, and the WeChat message popped up, and when I clicked on it, it was all voice, and the thick Jiangcheng spoken language came from the phone.
Ma Ma: Voice [It was too late yesterday to receive your call. 】
Ma Ma: Voice [Yueyue, have you been short of money recently? How many times have I told you, buy less of those messy clothes, your dad knows that he can't beat you to death. 】
Ma Ma: Voice [Hey, how much is missing, you say, I'll transfer 1000 for you. 】
Ma Ma: WeChat transfer [1000 soft girl coins]
Ma Ma: Voice [How much will I give you tenderness first, not enough for you to say]
It's not at all the same as my mother's voice in my memory.
Although they are all spoken in Jiangcheng, my mother's words are heavier, and it sounds very angry. The voice in the voice is softer and gentler.
But it's very similar to the mother in my memory, they are all so disgusted and caring, and they have a knife mouth and a tofu heart.
But Lianyue didn't dare to ask for her money.
Lian Yue before the end of the world was also 26 years old, although he was just an ordinary clerk, but after working, he basically never asked his parents for money. On the contrary, every year during the New Year's holiday, she will prepare some gifts and money for her parents, which is not much, but it is the best she can provide.
The original owner is 26 years old, has worked for four years without extra savings, spends money without any care, and always asks his parents to help. In Lianyue's values, it is extremely unrecognized.
Even the original owner called his mother yesterday because he had to pay the rent for this quarter. And because she was naïve and mistrusted others, she lent money to distant relatives for emergencies.
To be honest, Lian Yue really doesn't know how to evaluate the original owner.
Let's call her stupid, people are also kind, thinking of borrowing money to help people in emergencies. As a result, people didn't pay it back, and they responded to other people's urgency, but they had no money to pay the rent.
Perhaps, when people are in their 20s, they are all so naïve, always looking at others with the greatest kindness.
Unlike her, after experiencing the end of the world where her life is like an ant and her heart is sinister, she can no longer be as naïve as the original owner.
Sighing lightly, Lian Yue tried hard to recall the mode of getting along between the original owner and his parents, and tried his best to use a tone that matched the original owner, and typed down the reply in the input box:
"Mama, I really don't need to, I have money. 【Diamond Ring of the Local Tyrant】"
"I just wanted to tell you when I called yesterday, I'll be very busy this week, working overtime every day [crying and chirping], and I won't be back on weekends~"
In one go, Lianyue refused his mother's transfer, and by the way, he postponed the original weekend's "routine visit" to his parents, which was a sigh of relief.
In the original world, her father died of illness long before the end of the world, and her mother also left her and her younger siblings three years after the end of the world.
But now, even she has left her relatives behind, leaving them in the original world forever.
The families of the two worlds are completely different, even if they have the memories of the original owner, Lian Yue can't quickly treat the original owner's family as his own.
Before she sorted out her thoughts for a month, she didn't think she would be going home for weekends for a while, but she just needed to find some good reasons not to disappoint them too much, which was the only thing she could do now.
......
Now, it's time to deal with rent.
Lianyue counted the assets of the original owner, there were only 235 yuan in cash in the wallet, two bank cards, and the balance on the card was checked, only 2,000 yuan. At present, there are 15 days left before the next month's salary, and in addition to the daily expenses of this half month, there are only 1,635 yuan out of 2,235 yuan.
And this quarter, the rent that needs to be paid every month is 4,500 yuan, which is almost a month's salary.
I don't rely on my parents to help, and I have been thinking for months, where does the money come from?
In two lifetimes, she is also a 62-year-old "adult", so she will not be embarrassed by this mere 4,500 yuan!
