Chapter 10: Seeking Death (1)
Although he experienced such a terrible day, Ye Ziye didn't even have a nightmare until dawn.
When I woke up very early, I saw my grandmother sitting at the dining table reading the newspaper, and breakfast was already set on the table.
Ye Ziye didn't care, and sat down to eat breakfast after washing up habitually.
While eating, he found that the grandmother opposite had not spoken, and he looked up suspiciously.
"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Why don't you speak? ”
"You eat yours, don't you usually think I'm an old woman? If you don't speak, you're not happy again, it's really hard to serve at a young age. ”
Ye Ziye saw that the old man was fine, and he was also a lot more relieved.
"Hey, hey! Say it anyway! I'm used to listening to you every day, and I don't feel comfortable not listening to you. ”
I don't know if Ye Ziye's words touched grandma, the old man put down the newspaper and looked at him worriedly.
"Ziye, you have no parents since you were a child, and I brought you up. I know you can't always rely on me, you will have your own life, and I, an old woman, can't always be with you..."
Hearing this, no matter how sluggish Ye Ziye was, he knew that something was wrong with his grandmother.
"Grandma, what are you talking about? I will never leave you in my life, and you will live a long life without saying these discouraged words.
Even if I start a family in the future, there will only be more people to accompany you and love you. I will not leave you. ”
Grandma didn't feel relieved by Ye Ziye's words, she just waved her hand and stopped talking.
Ye Ziye finished eating breakfast and cleaning up his things, and finally pulled his grandmother and said tentatively: "Are you hiding something from me?" ”
"What can I, an old woman, hide from you? Don't think about it, it's almost time, right? Don't be late. ”
Ye Ziye was still very unsteady in his heart, feeling that since he came back last night, his grandmother had become weird.
"Are you alright? If something happens, you must tell me that you are my only relative, I..."
Grandma patted him on the head and pretended to be relaxed and said, "Okay! Just how old is it to be so nagging, be careful that you can't marry a daughter-in-law in the future. ”
When grandma said this, Ye Ziye was a little embarrassed.
However, seeing that the old man didn't say that Ye Ziye had no choice, he could only comfort himself and stop digging deeper, after all, the time was almost up.
"Okay, then I'll go to work first. Remember to call me if you have something. ”
Grandma nodded and let Ye Ziye go busily, until Ye Ziye left the house with a black umbrella, and grandma stood on the windowsill with a complicated expression and looked out of the window.
At the entrance of the community stood a man dressed in white, with a pink velvet rabbit lying on his shoulder. Perhaps sensing the sight from upstairs, the man looked up and met the old man's gaze.
The man was not puzzled or surprised, and the old man did not show too much emotion. It's just that the two people who can see each other so clearly at such a distance tacitly deviate from their line of sight in the next second.
Ye Ziye walked out of the building with an umbrella, and saw the pink hairball-like fluff of the hot pot from a distance supporting back and forth in the autumn wind.
He ran a few steps quickly and came to the entrance of the community.
"I'm coming! Why did you get there so early? ”
"There are a lot of things to deal with today, so let's solve it first."
Yun Midu looked at the black umbrella, and Ye Ziye nodded knowingly.
Ye Ziye met the black umbrella spirit in his own corridor, so he always thought that the owner of the black umbrella spirit should be in the same building as him.
Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the place, Ye Ziye knew that the owner of the emotional umbrella spirit was not in his community at all, but in the community next door.
The group walked to its owner's residence according to the address described by the umbrella spirit, and at the same time had a general understanding of what had happened.
The owner of the umbrella spirit is an elderly man, who is almost eighty years old. It has been with its owner for nearly 50 years, and the old man has always had this umbrella, and no matter what the weather, he will take it with him.
Everything in the world can become fine, as long as there is enough time and careful care from popularity.
The umbrella spirit was conscious when the owner was about forty years old, when he was in a car accident and the person almost died.
But even so, he still clutched the umbrella in his hand. And the blood that splattered fell on the umbrella, giving it a chance.
Later, I learned that the car accident was intentional by its owner, and he wanted to die.
But he still came back to life, and when his owner woke up, he cried like a child with a black umbrella.
muttering in his mouth: Why do you want to leave me alone... It's been ten years, why don't you let me go to you...
The umbrella spirit doesn't remember who bought it, but it seems to be a woman.
Since then, its owner has tried various ways to commit suicide, but each time he has been saved.
Later, the man seemed to have accepted his fate, and if he couldn't die, he would live as a walking corpse, and the only thing that remained unchanged was that he had to carry a black umbrella when he left the house.
But just a week ago, the old man's body functions have failed, and normal people will face natural death.
But the old man kept hanging his breath and couldn't die, and the old man had no children, and this pain of not being able to survive and not being able to die tormented him day by day.
The umbrella spirit has no choice, wants to find someone for help but doesn't know who to find, and after being reminded by the passing spirit, it can go to Lord Yun.
But it didn't know where to look, and at this moment, the drunk Ye Ziye walked past their community, and it felt Yun Midu's powerful aura on him.
"That's why I want to borrow him to find you, I want you to help my master, let him die!"
The black umbrella spirit begged and said to Yun Midu, but Yun Midu did not respond.
Ye Ziye felt very uncomfortable when he heard this, he was going to kill a person on the first day of work, how could he think about it.
Although perhaps the real death of the old man is a relief, the matter of begging for death is still a little difficult to accept in the eyes of ordinary people.
As they spoke, the group had arrived at the old man's residence.
The old man's door was not locked at all, and it seemed that the old man did not care who would enter the house and burglary.
After all, people who didn't have nostalgia for the world half a century ago don't care about things outside their bodies.
Ye Ziye approached the old man's house and asked a few times softly, but no one answered.
He looked at the almost empty dwelling, and his heart was mixed.
Yun Midu looked at the closed bedroom door, strode forward and pushed it open, the scene in the bedroom made Ye Ziye's jaw drop in surprise.
There was only one bed in the bedroom, and an old man with a thin figure lay on the bed, snorting and panting.
Apparently time is running out, but there is no sign of breathing.
And beside the old man's bed, there was a gentle woman, she was trembling and covering her mouth and sobbing, looking extremely painful.
