Chapter 172: Depressed Patients
This is in a room.
The house is bright and the furniture is clean and tidy, giving it a very comfortable feeling.
Jiang Qian was sitting at his desk, holding a copy of "Reasons to Live" and reading it with relish.
On the table, there is a teacup, a bowl of white teacups filled with brown tea, and an empty bowl of teacups.
Under each of the two teacups is a delicate piece of wood that serves as a saucer.
On the right side of the teacup, in the mouth of an incense burner in the shape of an open-mouthed triangular toad, stands a burning incense stick, filled with smoke and fragrant.
On the laptop with the center open, there are two small black Bluetooth speakers, playing songs.
"Thought about leaving
Exist in this way
It's because of those narrations
Those gestures, those hurts. ”
Soothing songs, slowly sung.
Books, music, tea, incense.
Jiang Qian felt that life should have a sense of ritual, and he enjoyed the more elegant atmosphere like now.
Even if the ringing of the doorbell outside the door broke the atmosphere, he still felt so.
Closing the book, the man got up and walked towards the door, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
Fang Zhe, who was standing outside the door, pressed the doorbell again impatiently, and he looked at Li Lili beside him, whose eyes were still red, a little helpless.
She said that a new man of twenty-eight or nine-year-olds had moved in next door, and since she came into contact with him, she felt that life had no idea.
She said that she hoped that Fang Zhe could talk to the new neighbor, and maybe help the other party dispel the feeling of being very sad.
She didn't know why she still had the face to ask for help.
And he didn't know why he agreed.
Fang Zhe intuitively thought that there seemed to be something wrong with this man.
The door is open.
Jiang Qian, who was one meter and eight years tall, stood in the room, his hair curled, his skin fair, and a gentle smile on his face.
A proper, idol drama next door big brother looks.
Well, the kind of male number two.
When Jiang Qian saw the strange boy standing outside the door, his expression was stunned for a moment, and the other party seemed to be a little young.
I glanced at the girl again, and the eyes that were a little red and swollen, as if I understood something.
"You guys, what's the matter?"
Jiang Qian's voice was very soft and gentle, and his smile was undiminished.
But no matter how comfortable the other party behaved, Fang Zhe's first impression of him was always bad.
Perhaps, it's because the other party is so tall, maybe it's just that there are no eyes.
Li Lili hurriedly spoke, slightly apologetic: "That... ”
"I'm looking for you."
Fang Zhe directly interrupted the words of the girl next to him and walked straight towards the house.
Seeing the stranger swaggering into his house like this, Jiang Qian was not annoyed or blocked, but gave way to his position.
Seeing Fang Zhe walk in like this, Li Lili hurriedly wanted to follow, but saw Fang Zhe suddenly turn around and point to the next door: "Your house is over there." ”
After speaking, Fang Zhe closed the door with his hand, as if he was the owner of this room.
“。。。”
Li Lili, who was standing outside the door, looked at the closed door with a confused expression.
As soon as he walked into the house, Fang Zhe smelled a smell of incense, refreshing, it should be sandalwood.
Immediately, very decisively, he held his breath.
He was afraid that it was psychedelic incense or some kind of sleeping incense.
The face is a little unsightly.
Seeing this, Jiang Qian shook his head with a smile: "Don't be afraid, this is just ordinary incense." ”
He originally thought about it, and deliberately didn't say it, to see how long the other party could hold his breath.
But fortunately, Jiang Qian didn't do this, otherwise Fang Zhe would have waited for about three seconds before he would have called out Xia Ran.
Fang Zhe, who was breathing normally, glanced at the open window, which was relieved, he sat directly on the sofa in the living room, and his eyes happened to fall on the desk in the bedroom.
Listening to the music, he raised his head slightly: "Are you waiting for someone?" ”
Jiang Qian didn't answer immediately, but walked into his room and took out the teacup and teacup one after another, as well as the incense burner that was about to finish burning.
The teacup, which was originally empty, was filled with half-warm tea soup, and moved to Fang Zhe with a wooden tray, Fang Zhe stretched out his finger and gently tapped the table three times when the other party was pouring tea.
This is a "knock salute", which can be made three times among peers to express gratitude to the person who pours the tea.
Haixi City, as a big city for tea production and tea drinking, has been exposed to this kind of etiquette on the tea table since childhood, and everyone has been silently abiding by it.
Jiang Qian looked at the other party and didn't immediately pick up the teacup to drink tea, nor did he say anything, he still smiled and said calmly: "Wait, it's not you, it can be you, you have his smell on you." ”
Fang Zhe rolled his eyes, he was a little disgusted with such crepe talk, his hands drooped directly to the backrest, put on a big man's sitting posture, and said bluntly: "I am a straightforward and honest person, so I am too lazy to sell it to you." ”
"My name is Chen Jielong, I am Li Lili's classmate, I heard her description of you, I guess, you are out of control, right?"
On the way from the school's rooftop, Li Lili described the story of the new neighbor.
Once Li Lili left the house in a fit of anger after a quarrel with her father, it was the middle of the night, and she didn't know where to go, so she had to hide in the corridor and cry.
It was Jiang Qian who heard the sound and invited her to his home.
For the gentle big brother who suddenly appeared, Li Lili knew that this was a new neighbor, and when this person moved in, he went to her house to knock on the door and visit, and even gave a small gift.
Her mother, who praised the boy, was impressed.
After taking the tissue handed by Jiang Qian, Li Lili felt that it was next door to his house anyway, so there should be no problem, so he took off his guard.
That night, the two of them talked a lot, and the atmosphere was good, but it was strange.
Because Li Lili found that although Jiang Qian was gentle and elegant, and spoke slowly and logically, the words he said always revealed a very sad meaning.
It's like turning on the net at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night and looking at the comments in the comment area.
Born human, I'm sorry.
Instead, eat raw personally, I'm sorry.
Even if Li Lili went home later, Jiang Qian's words would always echo in his mind inadvertently.
This stayed at the other party's house, and was taken care of for one night, it must be a return gift, Li Lili's family education is very strict, so naturally he will not lose this etiquette.
So on the third day after returning home, she bought gifts and went to visit the neighbor's house, and then there was another long talk.
But no matter what Jiang Qian said, even if it was a simple sentence, "Have you eaten?" Li Lili felt that his words seemed to have magical power, and they were all stained with a melancholy style.
Slowly, she felt that life had lost its joy, and from the original colorful world, it became a black and white painting.
After listening to Li Lili's description, Fang Zhe thought of a few words, a few words about those who were out of control.
Magnetic field band, magnetic domain capability.
It is true that people's words can affect the mood of others, but just two contacts can make people lose their thoughts about life, which is either a master of brainwashing or a person who is out of control.
So Fang Zhe decided to go, after all, this was in Licheng, after all, he had the title of investigator of the Abnormal Crime Handling Bureau.
If he knew this, he would not know it, and Yang Haixin would probably pick his skin.
So, here he came.
Hearing the other party bluntly say the words "out of control", Jiang Qian didn't bother to pretend, he looked directly at the other party's indifferent eyes, and chuckled: "My name is Jiang Qian, I am a person with severe depression, are you free, listen to my story?" ”
Fang Zhe shook his head: "Oh, no, I'm not interested, thank you." ”
