Chapter eighty-five
Blackie's father walked briskly and greeted me and asked how we were looking and what they thought of the place. I briefly praised the prosperity and grandeur of the basement, which were all perfunctory polite words,
"In the future, if you have anything strange, you can show me, and if necessary, I can give you the corresponding price in return."
"Dad, they are my classmates and brothers, not your business partners, don't say that" Xiao Hei felt that his father's words were too blunt, too abrupt and a little displeased.
"It's nothing, everyone understands that everyone takes what they need" When Xiao Hei's father said this, he didn't look at Xiao Hei but deliberately looked at me twice, still that strange gaze.
"Weird stuff? Don't you have a ring? Take it out and let my uncle take a look, maybe it's really a baby" Xiong Zi's unintentional words made me and Xiao Hei fall into silence, and what happened that night came to mind again, and Xiao Hei and I didn't know how to reply.
When Xiao Hei's father heard that I really had something strange, he immediately became interested, and asked me to explain it in detail.
I swallowed, and I didn't know how to say it for a while, and I watched Xiao Hei fall silent again.
"If you put it on, you'll see the dead man," Hei answered his father's question bluntly.
I breathed a sigh of relief, Xiao Hei's answer was quick and decisive, and it just avoided the trivial things I was thinking about just now, which was really in one sentence.
Xiao Hei's father was stunned for a few seconds when he heard this, his expression was extremely complicated, but he quickly put on the same smile and said, "Can you take it out and let me look at it twice, maybe I can see the difference in this ring" Then he stretched out his hand and put it in front of me.
"Uncle...... The ring is gone," I replied hesitantly, not daring to look at it.
"How can a good ring not be seen? I just want to see if I don't want to take your things" Xiao Hei's father became a little impatient when he heard that the ring was gone, and he wanted to say something more, but fortunately, Xiao Hei snatched the words again, and retold the events of that night without missing a word.
Xiongzi was very surprised to hear that there was such a thing, and now that he was in this dark basement, he would inevitably be a little frightened, and unconsciously leaned over to me.
"You mean, the ring made you see your dead classmate and then disappeared, with an extra ring on your finger?" Blackie's father thought for a while and asked me, but I nodded and didn't reply.
"Can I see your hand with the ring, then?"
His words were gentle but had a commanding feel that I couldn't refute, and I had to stretch out my hand and let my father look at it. He looked at it for a while, but he probably didn't notice any difference, so he sighed and gave up.
"If there is such a thing next time, please let me take a look at it first, you can rest assured, I will not take anything that does not belong to me, even if you are a student, I have my own principles, you can completely trust me"
I replied politely and tightened my clothes, but fortunately my father didn't notice the pendant on my chest, which can be regarded as my treasure, and it is something that should never be given to others easily.
"It's not too early, let's go up and eat together, I've already told you" Xiao Hei's father politely invited us to leave, Xiongzi obviously didn't hear the meaning of this, and thought about continuing to visit, but didn't notice that the maid at the door bowed his head and followed him all the time.
I walked at the back, carefully removed the pendant and put it in my pocket, watched the new maid walk to the place where he was standing to clean, there were already countless cigarette butts on the ground, when I felt guilty, I glanced at the Buddha statue just now, and my vision suddenly became very clear, just like that night in front of the window looking at the night as if it was day, the Buddha statue still stood like that where motionless, his white eyes were extremely bright at this moment and had been staring at the door of the basement, I suddenly felt that his eyes seemed to be somewhat familiar, This look is inexplicably similar to the feeling that Xiao Hei's father felt when he looked at me. It was as if they were looking at me with other intentions, and the carved expression of the Buddha statue did not seem to be the same kind smile as before, but more like a tense face thinking about a problem, and this subtle change made me speed up my pace, and I wanted to escape from this place.
The delicacies on the table are things that I can't eat on weekdays, I can't name these dishes, I can't say what they are made of, greedily put vegetables into the bowl and send meat to my mouth, I ate a noble feeling for the first time, looking at these delicate tableware and white dining table, I can't help but think in my heart, will my father eat these things? Whether he will also imagine that his future life will be so easy and careless, and he doesn't know how his brother is doing over there, what kind of food he will eat at the moment, and whether he misses this home. I thought a lot, but I didn't dare to think of my mother, so I just raised my glass and drank it all......
Xiong Zi said a lot of things at the dinner table, I was surprised, I thought that experiencing Wang Su's incident would make him more silent and autistic, but I didn't expect that in the face of Xiao Hei's father Xiong Zi suddenly became very enthusiastic, and talking with Xiao Hei's father was like a different person. I suddenly felt as if I didn't know Xiongzi at all, and that my previous definition of him might be all wrong, that he was as natural and changeable as a girl, and that he was not at all what I remembered.
"I've seen a lot of strange things over the years, and you can't think of it when you dig out your brain, but I didn't expect to be suppressed by your kid, Brother Zhang Lone, do you know, the first time I saw you, I had a sense of déjà vu, and there was some fear in my heart, you have a murderous aura, an unprecedented murderous aura, it is difficult for others to detect, but I can feel that your kid will not be an ordinary person in the future!" Xiao Hei's father drank a few glasses of wine and began to talk nonsense with the strength of the wine, I couldn't tell whether it was a compliment or a burying, I was very embarrassed to listen, with half a point of flattery, and hurriedly responded politely, advising Xiao Hei's father to sit down and talk, he is a junior, and he can't afford such a big gift.
"Hey...... Everyone is a man, you have to be straightforward when you speak, this is my feeling, I don't say half a lie, if Xiao Hei has half of your temperament, I can sleep and laugh."
I looked at Xiao Hei, I thought he would be annoyed and unhappy when he heard this, but I didn't expect Xiao Hei to stand up when he heard this, and he and his father connected the two of them, and said together that my perfect and extraordinary aura was extraordinary.
I'm really embarrassed, I'm like a host at the moment, as if Xiao Hei and his father have become guests, I don't understand why they pat me on the back, I'm different from ordinary people, I just don't like to talk, I'm just a little silent. If you want to talk about people, that is, you study well on weekdays, think more than others, and care about other people's feelings, where are they so evil, I really hope that Wang Qiu is now by my side, at least he still has my handle in his hand, and it is much better to give me a few words of ridicule and ridicule than now.
"Oops! Uncle Xiao Hei, don't say that, I'm just an ordinary person, seeing each other is fate, and we need everyone to help each other and help each other in the future" I got up and toasted the two of them, which made Xiao Hei and his father shut up and sit down.
After a full meal, Xiao Hei's father proposed to take us to Wangchun Tower to relax, this can frighten the bear, it is not a place for honest people to go, he is almost ready to die, Xiao Hei shook his head and stopped my father after making eye contact with me, we were relieved, and then thought that I had just lost my first kiss, and it would be strange if I went to that kind of place without an accident.
Xiao Hei's father should be drunk, go to Wangchun Lou and think of the law to please us, he pulled me and Xiong Zi to swear brothers with us, such a serious move made me cry and laugh, who would have thought that Xiao Hei's father would have so many ideas, Xiao Hei also seemed to persuade not to persuade, let his father use the topic to play, as if he also had a strong interest in worship.
"Uncle...... Next time, you also know that we are the Three Musketeers, Wang Qiu has not come yet, we are a whole, next time when Wang Qiu comes, let's talk about the swearing, let's get ready to prepare" I thought about Wang Qiu and made up a reason.
Xiao Hei's father was stunned for a while, and suddenly knocked on his head: "Ouch! Look at my brain, Brother Wang Qiu hasn't come yet, then next time, next time, when Brother Wang Qiu comes, let's bow again, just listen to you" After speaking, he knocked his head twice, and immediately set the time for the next meeting, at the celebration banquet at the end of the sports meeting, regardless of whether Wang Qiu has achieved the ranking or not, he will be celebrated, and by the way, this matter will be done again, we will not allow us to have any objections, and Xiao Hei's father went to the toilet after speaking.
I feel very bad in my heart, I always feel that this matter is very ridiculous, going to Wangchun Tower or worshipping is too ridiculous, I always think that Xiao Hei's father can't drink too much because of this little wine, Xiao Hei also said that his father knows that getting drunk is in the way, and he has been very measured since his mother's death, but today's situation seems that he has long forgotten these words, I prefer to believe that Xiao Hei is not lying, it may be that his father is not drunk at all, he is just pretending to be drunk and acting, I look at his steady steps and don't want to think about itI hope you can always have as much fun as you are today.
