Chapter 2, Keys
"Pomp, your courier!"
In the first week of summer in 19 years, after the high temperature, the first rain was ushered in in Jiangxi, like a moment of gorgeous blooming in the dark.
"Drop the table!"
I sat in the store and watched the TV series boredly, and the love story in the play moved me, an old man born in the 90s, to tears.
My name is Sheng Shi, born in 91, a native of Yongxiu, and I don't have any big ambitions, and I belong to the typical kind of guy who eats old books and is unwilling to improve.
According to the old-fashioned chicken soup among readers, "those who live happily are those who keep plain." "I am such a person, I feel that it is enough to be in a small county, have a small house, do a little business, and support myself. As for making a lot of money and doing big things, that's not my goal.
So a few years after graduating from college, I still didn't achieve anything, so I could only use the money borrowed by my mother and the shop inherited from my father, and renovate and open a bubble tea shop.
"It's almost three, and I'm still looking at this thing!" The courier Li Jun stretched out his head to look at it and said with a smile.
Li Jun is the commissioner of our area, he was only divided a few months ago, he and I have a similar personality, so I accepted a few couriers, and we chatted, and he usually came to the store to brag to me when he was free.
"It's your business!" I'm very familiar with him, so I can talk without hindrance.
Then he glanced at the courier on the table, and the package was no more than the size of a palm.
"Anyway, I haven't been shopping lately, what's there?"
He gave me a wink, "How do I know, I'm just delivering a courier and not sending you a courier." ”
I joked with him, "Damn, you're not going to take a look?" ”
"Get out!" He glared at me, "I'm a fucking professional man!" ”
"You've got a fart!" I snorted at him, "Who doesn't know, you guy has to go to the mall at least every month to open a few hundred mysterious boxes?" ”
"What does that have to do with this?"
"Why doesn't it matter? You go to dismantle the charges, and you haven't seen them one by one here with a bunch of free ones? ”
"Go, go!" Li Jun waved his hand, "I'll be honest with you, I really don't know what you have here." ”
"I really don't know?" I looked at him and emphasized it.
"Hurry up and fucking dismantle it! Don't be crooked. Li Jun simply didn't leave at this time, and sat down to watch me unwrap the package. This guy is a typical male gender, but he gossips more than a woman.
He took a stool, took a few steps to my counter, and handed me a cigarette.
"Done!" After taking the cigarette, I also handed him a glass of water, "Anyway, you've been so idle lately?" ”
"I can't run a few dollars in this small and broken place in this county, it's all uncles and aunts, who uses express delivery." He took a sip of water and spared his neck, and urged with his fists, "Open it up and take a look." ”
"Pok, it's not an inflatable doll, why are you in a hurry for an older single dog?"
"Less verbose, hurry." He patted the back of my hand.
"Yes, yes!" I took a few puffs of cigarette and expertly dismantled the delivery.
After a while, the courier bag was opened, and a small box was revealed, the box was boxy, wrapped in scotch tape, and I didn't know what was inside.
"So tight? It can't be something from the Family Planning Bureau, right? ”
Li Jun smiled and didn't speak, but I sat down and began to tear through the outer packaging of the box little by little.
The box is only the size of a palm, and the sealing is very good, the inner and outer three layers are wrapped in a circle of transparent tape, which is very difficult to tear.
It's so fucking tight that I seriously suspect that this sender has a grudge against me. While thinking about it, he squinted his eyes and looked inside.
But I picked it for a long time, but the mouth was too small, so I couldn't see the light spilling in, so I had to shine a flashlight inside.
And soon in the light, I saw a small black thing inside, it was less than the size of a palm, and I don't know what it was.
Taking a deep breath, I pinched in two fingers and clamped the thing hard, ready to lift it up.
Then I pulled it out of my body, and when I looked at it, it was a strange device.
Looking at it from this half, I saw that the thing was a long strip, and under the strip, there was a protruding white bubble, hard, like a ...... A miniature version of the cocoon, it just hung upside down there.
Amber? Or jade? I don't know, but the material of the long strip is yellow, and it seems to be a bit heavy, probably brass or something.
"What is it?" Seeing this thing, Li Jun and I were speechless, and that guy was even more stupid, and he was stunned for a long time before he said a word.
I'll smash it, smash it, "Hell knows, it looks like it's worth a lot anyway." ”
"Do you want to change hands?"
"Get out!"
As I was talking, I used force in my hand to pull the long strip of things out, but after several times of drumming, I found that I couldn't pull it out, and it seemed that there was still a big head stuck in the box.
"Ahh Use this. Li Jun handed me a pair of nail clippers.
Glared at him, "You didn't fucking take it out sooner." ”
"Hey! Isn't that forgotten! He pointed to the box, "Don't be idle, quick, quick." ”
With the sharp weapon, I was able to dismantle it quickly, and after a while, the opening was cut wide, and the thing slid down the opening to the palm of my hand.
I looked at that thing and was stunned, until I felt like I had been pricked by a needle.
That...... That's a handful......
A key!
