Chapter Twenty-Five: Appearing
It was noon, and it was obviously very hot, so I don't know why there were so many people on the street. I always felt small in this bustling crowd, but after the incident that happened more than a week ago, I was no longer ordinary.
Walking is a very easy thing, doing things that all human beings and even not only human beings can do, but they can be in the imagination of the brain, infinite reverie. The air in the city is not clean, but it is still much better than indoors. Compared with the bustling crowd, the trees and bushes on the roadside are no longer so inconspicuous, and it feels like the wind is blocked by the "natural barrier" of the big city. There was only an endless cacophony in my ears. Looking at this sea of people, it gives people the feeling that they can't see the end at a glance.
Walking down the street alone and not knowing where to go, going home? Forget it. Just as he was hesitating, a bubble tea shop on the side of the road came into view, stood in place and was stunned, and walked in.
"Hello, handsome man, what do you need?" The gentle voice of the female clerk came into my ears. Actually, I don't know why I walked in, maybe it was just to relax. Since it's relaxing, let's just order it.
"A cup of bubble tea, thank you." The money was paid immediately.
"Okay, please find a seat and wait." The female clerk has a good service attitude and has always maintained a smile service. I saw that there was almost no one in the store, oh no, not almost, there was no one at all, and it seemed that the whole store was the only one except me, the young female clerk, probably because it was noon. I didn't even know why I walked into this bubble tea shop.
I sat down at random and pulled out my phone to look at it. QQ hasn't moved yet, and Xia Mengyou hasn't looked for me yet, have you given up? Or do you have other ideas?
was looking at the phone aimlessly, and the female clerk came over with milk tea, put the milk tea on the table, and said with a smile: "You use it slowly." ”
"Well, thank you." I glanced at her and answered, then turned my gaze back to my phone. The female clerk didn't mean to leave, but sat directly across from me. After taking a sip of milk tea, I couldn't help but look at her suspiciously. Huh? Wait, this look...... How can this feeling feel a little familiar?
"Finally, a guest came, let's chat with me." The female clerk said with a smile. I looked at her suspiciously, then thought about it, I had nothing to do anyway, she didn't seem to have any ill intentions, and it wasn't necessarily a bad idea to talk to a stranger.
When I thought about it, I put my phone back in my pocket and said to her, "Okay." It just so happens that I have nothing to do, so I can chat. ”
"Okay, okay." The female clerk looked smiling happily, "Many customers just buy milk tea and leave, and other clerks also go to eat, and I am almost bored to death in the store alone." ”
"Have we met? How do I think you give me a bit of déjà vu? I almost blurted out the question, and then immediately realized that it seemed a bit rude.
"What is this? Pick-up? You guess you're a high school student at most. She laughs.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, and then I realized that you look a little like a friend of mine that I haven't seen in a long time." I quickly changed the subject, "Let's talk about you first." I said, "How did you come to work here?" ”
"I just graduated from college, so I supported myself first, so I just found a job and did it first." Just graduated? No wonder it looks so young. She continued: "What about you? Look like you're a student, still studying? ”
"Well, I just finished my sophomore year of high school."
"It's going to be the third year of high school, the third year of high school is tired, you have to carry it."
"That's right."
"Eh, how many points did you get in the final exam? Compare with me. She laughed again. Final exams? I was still lying in the hospital. I thought about it.
"I had an illness and was still lying in the hospital during my final exams." I said with a wry smile, panicking.
"Oh. What kind of disease? Is it serious? When I'm sick, I go out for a walk alone. ”
"Still don't talk about it. Let's have some fun. "I forced the conversation away. In the previous conversation, I got to know her in general, and it was easy to see from the way she spoke that she was a more aggressive person, but her clothes were relatively neat, and she should still be a person who likes to be clean.
Since I have just graduated, I should be about twenty-one or twelve years old, and I don't listen to the accent like a local, most of them live alone, or rent with others. A small diamond ring on her left index finger told me that she was still single, and since she was single, this diamond ring was probably given to her by her parents, indicating that her family was not very poor. But I still have to come to other places to study and work, and I am obviously not rich.
"You're out of town, aren't you?" I asked, a little cautiously.
"Yes. How do you know? She looked at me a little surprised.
"Your accent betrays you."
"I thought I was learning a lot like that." She laughed again.
"Single?" I asked again.
"You're pretty good." She seemed interested, "You know how to read minds?!" "You can still see the simplicity of these. I thought to myself.
"There's no mind reading." I smiled too, "I pointed to her little diamond ring with my right index finger.
She looked at the diamond ring and said with a smile, "This is the one who betrayed me this time." ”
I smiled and nodded, and then asked, "Did your parents give you that?" ”
"I guessed wrong." She shook her right index finger and shook her head with a smile.
"Oh?" I was a little surprised that I was wrong.
"This is what my grandparents gave me." She smirked. Almost. I thought to myself. She continued, "But it's still good. You're pretty good. What else can be seen? She put her hands on her cheeks and rested her elbows on the table and looked at me expectantly.
Seeing that she was looking forward to it, I had to guess again: "You should be tidying up your room regularly." ”
"How do you see this?"
"It's not easy, you're well-dressed."
"What else?"
"It's nothing. I don't really know how to read minds. I smiled wryly.
"Then don't just talk about me, talk about you." She sat up straight, looked at me and said, "How are you doing in school?" Where are you going to go to university? ”
"I won't mention my grades, it's very bad." I smiled wryly and shook my head, "College words......" I pretended to think about it, "I haven't thought about it yet." ”
"You have to choose this early, and if you have a goal, you can be motivated." She said in a passer-by-side tone.
"I got it."
"Look at the expression on your face when you just entered the door, it's a person walking out again, what's the matter? What's upset? ”
This can be seen, you still don't treat me as a psychopath when I said it? I thought to myself. I shook my head again: "Forget it, let's not discuss that." "I pretended to have a very heavy thing in my heart, but I didn't have to pretend to be it, it was really heavy.
"If you don't want to say it, forget it." She stood up suddenly, "I already know anyway. ”
Well? I couldn't help but have a question mark in my mind: What do you mean? That look felt more and more familiar. Looking at my puzzled eyes, she continued, "I'm the one you've been looking for. ”
What the? "Been looking?!" I can't help but repeat, it's the group of people in 2070!? I looked at her in horror, she wasn't going to do anything to me, was she? Could it be that this milk tea is poisonous?! Wait, I took my frightened eyes back and turned into doubt, she said "I've been looking", not "We've been looking......
"Are you ......" I looked horrified again. No wonder this look is so familiar!
"Finally guessed." She smiled and said a word with a serious expression, and her hands were propped up on the table, leaning in front of my face, bending over and continuing, "They've been watching you, but they won't notice it if I'm there." "They? Surveillance? It should refer to us in the future.
"You're still good, the reasoning about me is almost correct, I won't repeat it, I don't have much time. Let me tell you a very important thing, I am a friend, but I am not in a group with any party, I am one person and one camp. ”
I was about to ask a question, but I felt my mouth closed and I couldn't open it. She continued: "Don't talk, just listen to me. The reasoning you see is good. The reason why I only let you see it is because only you and I can trust it, and as for who I am, you should explore it yourself. She straightened up, but I couldn't speak, I couldn't even move. What do you mean only I can trust? What about the others?
"One more thing, that future, at least you have to go, because you are the most important of the four of you." She had already turned around, and it seemed that she was about to walk out, "You also saw that you still have some strength in your reasoning with me just now, not bad." Let's go, you can take care of the rest. She had already reached the door, but suddenly turned back and said, "By the way, one last thing: I am a woman." He smiled at me and winked at me, then disappeared into the crowd.
I didn't recover yet, I just stared at the door in a daze, gradually remembering every word she just said. A gentle voice slowly came from his ear: "Handsome guy, handsome guy?" ”
"Huh?" I turned my head, and a face like her just now suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, which really startled me, and I couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah! ”
The female clerk also seemed to be taken aback, and asked cautiously, "What, what's wrong?" ”
"No, nothing. I was in a daze just now, and you scared me. I said with an awkward smile.
"Oh." She also smiled, "This is the bubble tea you ordered, please use it slowly." Then she put a cup of bubble tea in front of me, only to realize that the cup she brought before was long gone.
"Aang, yes. Thank you. I picked up the milk tea perfunctorily and walked straight out of the milk tea shop.
Damn, what just happened?! In just half a minute, I felt like centuries had passed. My brain seems to be completely inadequate. Recall what she said just now, forget it, just remember it, analyze something, let's go home first. I feel like I really have to take it slow. What did I experience in those half minutes?!
