Chapter 42: What the Snow Looks Like
There was a heavy fog on the riverside, I walked on the embankment as if I was lost in the wilderness, the faint engine sound of the looming boats on the river, after coming out of the hospital, I did not walk on the shopping street, but went around the embankment by the river, for no special reason, but I felt that I had not been here for a long time.
I took out my phone to check the time, and found that my hand was frozen, I clenched my fist tightly, the hemostatic patch on my right hand was tightened, someone rescued me from the water, and someone also paid my medical bills when I was in the hospital, is this the same person? That person, I can't remember my face, as if he was just my illusion, I looked at the vast mist, the world was a huge illusion.
The wind blew the road, but it could not expel the fog, except for the whirring wind, the sound of the waves on the river became stronger, and the sound gradually approached me.
"Help, help", this sound began to appear again, I shook my head to dispel it, but the sound did not stop, the sound did not come from my brain, I looked down at the embankment, there was a boy struggling in the water, the cry for help was made by him, I looked around and there was no one, the feeling of being overwhelmed swept over my body, I was stunned in place.
"Help me, help me, I.." His voice enveloped my head like a spell, I walked forward, but stepped down the stairs by the river, my body instinct made me balance in time, I looked back at the river, the fog filled the water, I couldn't see anything clearly, the cry for help seemed to disappear, I walked down the stairs quickly to check the position just now, the sound of the water waves also approached me. When I arrived at the river, I vaguely saw someone swimming towards me in the water, there were two people in the water, the boy who had just called for help was dragged to the shore by a girl with a ponytail, I hurriedly crossed the shore to answer, she brought the boy to the shore, I stabilized the boy, and then the girl went ashore and moved the boy ashore with me. The boy's body was frozen from the water and he lost consciousness. But when the girl approached me, I felt a burst of warmth, as if she had come from a hot spring, and strange sensations were intertwined.
"Call 120 and I'll do CPR for him first." After the girl finished speaking, she began to do CPR for the boy, but I was still in that strange feeling, and after noticing that I was not moving, the girl turned around and urged, "Call an ambulance." ”
I hurriedly took out my mobile phone and wanted to dial, but the phone had no signal, "What should I do, there is no signal!" I kept repeating the attempt while reporting, and at the same time looked around, there was still no one around, the girl was focused on extracardiac compressions and artificial respiration, and there was no reply to me, I began to move my position to look for a signal, anxious..............
Jingle bells, wind chimes rang, I pulled away from the replay of the incident, and the professional habit version affectionately shouted "Welcome!" "The door was pushed open, it was Su Shun, I breathed a sigh of relief, and my body seemed to feel safe and relaxed. He walked over to the counter with a faint smile, and he placed a box in front of me, and I gave me a questioning look.
"Condolences to the class, sweet potato syrup."
"Really? For me? I couldn't help but take the sugar water box and wanted to open it, but I stopped, "Can I eat it during duty?" ”
He didn't answer me right away, but his eyes were fixed on my right hand, as if looking at the hemostatic patch on the back of my hand, and I withdrew my hand to hide it, but it seemed too late.
"What's wrong with your hand?"
"Uhhhhh It seems that he can't hide it, so he can only confess, "That I went swimming last night, and then". I'm on my own
"Huh?"
"Then it was like drowning, and I woke up in the hospital this morning." I didn't tell him about someone unknown who saved me, and my eyes drooped slightly.
"Drowning? Why don't you contact me! Su Shun's voice suddenly became louder, and I was so frightened that I raised my head.
"Well, it's actually fine, you see," I said as I tore off the hemostatic patch on my hand, "It's just the eye of the needle, I forgot to tear it, and the doctor said I had low blood sugar." ”
"Why didn't you contact me when you woke up, why did you come straight to the store tonight? Is it really okay? Su Shun approached me and looked into my eyes, "Your face is so bad, and you are weak, how can a drowning person still come to work directly...."I quietly listened to him 'teach' me, behaved like a child, and finally when he finished speaking, I glanced at him, and seemed to have no words for the time being, so I said slowly: "Don't worry, I'm really fine, besides, I feel uneasy to be alone at this time, so I want to come to work, some lights, some music, some guests..."
"Then I'll be here with you tonight."
"Huh?"
Su Shun helped me open the sugar water box, the sweet fragrance of sweet potato sugar water was filled, this mist was different from the confusion and desolation during the day, but edified safety and warmth, "Eat it while it's hot, eat something sweet will feel more at ease." ”
I nodded, obediently picked up the sugar water box and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and sat down, the sweet warmth permeated my mouth, and then my chest, and my body finally felt recovered.
Jingle bell, ding bell, but the nostalgic version of Christmas carol sounded in my ears, Su Shun sat next to me, he pressed the phone screen, there was a red button on the all-white background, "Press it to try?" ”
My puzzled gaze turned to Su Shun and his phone screen, and finally stretched out my right hand and lightly touched the red button displayed on the phone screen.
Hohohoho, the hearty Santa Claus laughter with the bell remembers, the floor-to-ceiling windows seem to glow brightly, looking up, the white and silver star lights are shining on the glass windows and jumping, I don't consciously feel happy, because I especially like lighting, the floor-to-ceiling windows in front of me seem to be still shining with fine light, like snow, I thought I evolved, so I squinted and opened it, and the lights shrouded in fine snow.
"Down, snowing?" I leaned closer to the glass and looked around, and after making sure I wasn't dazzled, I wanted to run out of the store, "Eh, wait," Su Shun wanted to call out to me, but I had already run out of the door, like a fool and spread my hands to look up at the sky, but as far as I could see, there was only the dimness of the street lamps and the branches of the trees, I looked around again, and the convenience store in front of me was clearly shrouded in lights and snow, why was this happening?
I approached the large floor-to-ceiling glass window, and Su Shun stood in the light and snow, like a model in the window. I reached out and touched the glass, the fine light flowed from the glass, I withdrew my hand, the light spot disappeared, I tried again, the glass window responded to my touch with the change of light and shadow like an LCD screen, it was very fun, I looked up and met Su Shun's gaze, he seemed to be very satisfied with my reaction, he shook the phone in his hand, the snow in front of him seemed to fall bigger, and we smiled more brightly............
