The Grey Age Chapter 9 Overcrowding
Back on the first floor, I quickly used the staff elevator to return to the eighth floor and came to Liu Xuerong's office door again.
Through the snowflake glass, you can vaguely see a figure walking anxiously back and forth in the room. I knocked on the door, and the figure inside quickly came to the door and opened the office door. When Liu Xuerong saw me coming back, she grabbed my arm and dragged me into the office, making me look blindfolded.
Liu Xuerong closed the office door, still holding my arm with both hands, staring at me without blinking
"Qi Mo, what happened just now? How can someone from a special department come to you? Are you in any trouble? ”
"Special department? What special sector? You mean those two in suits? ”
I didn't understand what Liu Xuerong meant, so I asked rhetorically.
"Yes, those two people in suits are people from our company's special department, and they seem to be people from the Yang Group. I've heard that they're all ruthless and specialize in doing things that don't look good. ”
Seeing Liu Xuerong's thoughtful appearance, I couldn't help laughing.
"I said Sister Liu, where did you hear this? To put it bluntly, isn't our company just a pharmaceutical company and doing some scientific research? How can it be as mysterious as you say. ”
"Okay, okay, I won't talk to you about this, so tell me, what happened just now? I'm your boss, why don't I know anything? ”
Liu Xuerong no longer told me what I didn't have, but grabbed a question and asked me clearly. I was about to tell her about what had just happened, but suddenly I remembered what the two men in black had said to me
"It's as if it hadn't happened today.."
So the words came to my lips and I swallowed them hard.
"Sister Liu, Sister Liu, don't get excited first, you spread it first, it's all numb for me"
I said heartlessly. Liu Xuerong also let go of her hands a little embarrassed, but her eyes were still staring at my face.
In order to hide my weakness, I leaned down and picked up the general who was wrapped like a zongzi, and turned his back to Liu Xuerong.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that the company's senior management asked me to report in detail on the scientific research projects I have done abroad."
"Really? Is that just this? ”
Liu Xuerong obviously didn't believe it, and opened a pair of peach blossom eyes. As soon as I turned around, I was immediately locked by Liu Xuerong's gaze. I started sweating constantly, but my mouth was still stiff.
"Of course, Sister Liu, you think about it too much, there really is nothing else, that, if it's okay, I'll go first, my dog is sick, I have to take it to the hospital to see, uh.. Also, the company gave me a month's off, and I had to go out and have fun. ”
I didn't dare to meet Liu Xuerong's eyes, I said something to myself, and I got up and was about to go out. Who would have thought that Liu Xuerong grabbed me.
"Wait, what's the matter? Taking a month off? Just returned to China and don't want to go to work? Do you think this is a nursing home? ”
I saw that Liu Xuerong's pupils seemed to be about to erupt fire, but I always felt that she didn't seem to be angry because I didn't go to work, but I didn't know why. I don't have the time to think about that now, I just want to take the general to the hospital as soon as possible.
"Sister Liu, just let me go, my dog is sick, will I invite you to dinner one day?"
This was originally a rhetoric I used to get out, but I didn't expect it to be taken seriously by Liu Xuerong.
"Okay, then tomorrow at six o'clock in the afternoon."
As he spoke, he let go of the hand that was tugging at my arm, and turned to the computer and muttered to himself.
"Fuck off, I'm going to play a game..."
I walked out of Liu Xuerong's office with a black question mark face and the general in my arms.
When I came to the outside of the company, I wanted to take a taxi, but no matter how I waited, no taxi passed in front of me, and the taxi software on my mobile phone was very strange that I couldn't get a taxi. Just when I was in a hurry, the mobile phone suddenly rang, I picked it up and saw that it was Sister Liu calling. I answered the phone and turned around to look at the window on the eighth floor of the company. Sure enough, a figure was standing in front of the window looking at me
"Hey, Sister Liu, is there anything else?"
"It's okay, why aren't you leaving? Can't get a taxi? ”
"Huh? Ah, I don't know what's going on today, and there is no car after standing for a long time. ”
"Stand still."
Liu Xuerong hung up the phone after saying this very domineeringly, and the figure in front of the eighth-floor window had disappeared.
The cold wind kept blowing on my face, and I tightened my collar, put on the hat that came with my down jacket, and tidied up the blanket that wrapped the general. As soon as I got that, I pulled out of the company's underground parking lot a pink Audi TT.
The car slowly drove to a stop in front of me. Lowering the window, Liu Xuerong looked at me with a smile wearing a pair of sunglasses
"Get in the car."
I didn't really want to get in her car, mainly because I was afraid that she would continue to talk about some of the things that were not there.
"Forget it, Sister Liu, I won't trouble you, you still have to go to work, I'll have a car in a while."
"If you don't pretend to be sentimental, you won't worry about your dog? When is this, it's just a lunch break, don't ink. ”
I was stunned by Liu Xuerong's words, and I was still a little hesitant.
"Hurry up!"
Liu Xuerong took out the momentum of leadership, and I compromised at once. Pull open the door and hug the general and get into the car.
"Which hospital to go to?"
"Hmm... Go to the house on Yongtai Road. ”
After a brief conversation, Liu Xuerong drove me and the general towards the pet hospital. I once took the general to this pet hospital on Yongtai Road, at that time the general was still a small milk dog, not yet fully developed, and I took it to get vaccinated at that time, not far from my home, about two or three kilometers.
By this time, the wide road was already crowded with all kinds of cars, and along the way, I could always see some police cars and animal control vehicles hovering with flashing alarm lights, and I think the content of the post I saw last night was real, and orders had been given.
About an hour later, the car finally came to the vicinity of the pet hospital, but before we could breathe a sigh of relief, my boss Liu Xuerong and I were dumbfounded. In addition to police cars and animal control cars, there are some private cars, taxis, electric cars, and countless citizens, some with dogs in their arms, some with dog cages in their hands, in short, everything.
"Sister Liu, you wait here for a while, I'll go by myself."
I asked Liu Xuerong to pick a place with few people to park, and then picked up the tightly wrapped general and got out of the car and shuttled through the crowd.
The entire street is now overcrowded, and it can be said that it is tightly blocked. I finally squeezed in front of this pet hospital, but I was completely dumbfounded.
The entire lobby of the hospital was surrounded by citizens with dogs. I made a cursory observation, and the dogs brought by these citizens were basically in the same state as my general, and they were all listless. Just as I was about to go to the automatic queuing machine to pick up the number and wait, a veterinarian wearing a white mask and a white lab coat came out of the consultation room and began to announce to people who came with pets.
"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet, now our hospital does not know the cause of the dog's illness for the time being, and we have no way to treat this disease now, I'm really sorry everyone, you can continue to seek medical treatment if you have other symptoms, but we are really helpless with this disease."
After saying that, the crowd erupted in a fierce shouting and scolding
"I don't know what kind of illness is going to open your pet hospital!"
"That's right! Aren't you just cheating money? ”
What's more, the words are even more intense, and they directly began to greet the ancestors of the pet hospital insiders, in short, it is very ugly. The veterinarian in the white lab coat shook his head, then bowed to everyone and turned to walk into the examination room. But this group of citizens who were swayed by anger and reason stopped doing it, and stepped forward to slap me and press the veterinarian to the ground with a fist, and this is not the end, these incomprehensible grievances in their hearts punched and kicked the veterinarian who was huddled on the ground. This can be regarded as alarming the people's guards who were maintaining order outside the hospital, and they rushed in and opened several doors, and the perpetrators standing in the innermost part of the door were screamed, and used a loudspeaker to face the citizens who were on the verge of rage.
"Don't gather in crowds to make trouble, keep order! Be a quality citizen! ”
Immediately afterwards, several people's guards took the most cheerful citizens who had beaten people just now into the police car, and the veterinarian who fell to the ground was also helped up by other nurses from the pet hospital, sitting on a chair at the front desk and wiping his nosebleed. In just a few seconds, the veterinarian was beaten on the head and broke the bloodstream, and the white coat was also black and white at this time, and the gold-wire glasses had already been trampled and disappeared, and he looked so embarrassed.
Seeing this, I made a decisive choice and left here. After all, such a vicious injury has already occurred, and the veterinarian just said that this disease cannot be treated at present, and it is undoubtedly a waste of time to consume it further.
I squeezed out of the hall of the pet hospital with the sleeping general in my arms and walked quickly to the side of Liu Xuerong's car.
"What's going on?"
Liu Xuerong was surprised. Because from the time I entered the pet hospital to the time I came back, it was only five minutes, and it was impossible to see the disease in such a short time.
"There is no rule of law for this disease now, in this way, Sister Liu, you go back to the company first, and I will take the general home by myself."
"You.. Stone! ”
Liu Xuerong seemed to be annoyed by my words, so angry that she couldn't speak, she directly raised the car window, and disappeared from my sight with one foot of the accelerator. I shook my head a little helplessly, what is this Sister Liu thinking about?
Holding the general to the intersection, he stopped a taxi and had to return home again.
