Chapter 3: The Woman in the Mirror
A cold air hit my back.
This feeling made me feel a fear in my heart, and I didn't dare to look back. At that moment, I felt a cold sensation in my neck, as if a pair of hands were climbing up my shoulders.
As if I had been electrocuted, I pulled my legs and ran forward.
As I ran, I heard a loud wind in my ears.
In that voice, there was also a woman's crying body, and the desolate sound was terrifying.
I found myself running into the alley where I went to the bathroom again.
The woman's voice in my ears was getting louder and louder, and it felt like she was right behind me, about to catch up with me.
As soon as I opened the door to the women's bathroom, I quickly entered.
Closing the door, I leaned against the back of the door, gasping for air.
The woman's crying finally disappeared, and my mood was much calmer than before.
With my ear to the door, I want to hear what's going on outside.
At that moment, I heard the sound of sliding on the door, one at a time, very sharp, with a little bit of a woman's laughter, and I was very uncomfortable to hear.
I locked the door behind my back, and she progressed.
So, she started knocking on the door.
I stepped back, and the knock on the door went from a small noise to a little louder.
Standing a meter away from the door, I stared intently at the shaking bathroom door.
At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of rushing water.
Looking sideways, the faucet next to it didn't know when it was turned on. Water came down the tube with a bang, and I looked up into the mirror on the sink.
At that moment, I was stunned.
I saw a woman, wearing an orange dress, washing her hands in front of the faucet.
The woman is about forty years old, her hair is permed with small curls, and her makeup is a little heavy, but her skin is in good condition, and she doesn't look like a person who lives hard.
After washing her hands, she looked at herself in the mirror,
After that, I wiped my hair with my wet hands, took out my lipstick, and touched up my makeup.
Just as she was about to leave, her cell phone rang.
Glancing at the mobile phone screen, she frowned slightly, and said to the person on the other end: "Didn't I tell you, I will find a way to deal with the money, when will I Su Xiaoyu owe people money and not pay it back, it's a little tighter these days, and when the payment comes down in a few days, I'll call you as soon as possible!" ”
After hanging up the phone, the woman sneered.
Just as I was about to leave, I suddenly looked up at me outside the mirror.
She seemed a little surprised, but it was only for a moment, and after looking at it, I noticed that there was a very strange look on her face.
Then she turned and walked away.
After she left, the knock on the door also disappeared.
There was no movement in the entire bathroom except for the sound of the water rushing.
I cautiously walked to the edge of the pool and looked up at myself in the mirror, my face slightly haggard.
Reaching out and turning off the faucet, there was silence all around.
After standing in the bathroom for a while, I tentatively walked to the door.
Stick your ear to the door again and you can't hear anything.
Gathering courage, I opened the door.
Outside the door, there was nothing.
Walking all the way down the hallway, I didn't notice anything unusual. When I came to the hall, there was still no one, I glanced at the window seat, where Wu Xiugu was sitting waiting for me.
The waitress at the bar was looking at her phone.
Obviously, she wasn't playing a game.
Back in her seat, Wu Xiugu continued to say to me: "I think about it, I have to earn money, my family needs money now, I have to earn money to go back, my three children are so cute, I can't ......"
I didn't pay attention to what she said later.
I picked up my phone on the table and flipped through it a few times. It wasn't lost, but fortunately it was placed here, and Wu Xiugu didn't steal it.
I thought about it for a moment and asked Wu Xiugu:
"Did you walk away just now?"
Seeing her shake her head, I didn't know what to say.
I analyzed it, there have been a lot of things going on these days, I should have fallen asleep in the bathroom and had a strange dream. It seems that the mental pressure has been a lot lately, and I went to bed so early last night, and I didn't have a good rest.
Two cups of tea are not expensive, twenty yuan is considered a minimum consumption.
When I was leaving, I asked the waiter how business was going here.
She said that it was not very good, especially in the past few days, and there were always strange things. When I heard this, I hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by ...... strange thing?"
But the girl kept her mouth shut.
She shook her head at me: "It's nothing, everything is fine here!" ”
I have to say that her acting skills are very poor.
Back at the chicken noodle shop, Tang Muzhou and Liang Yuan had already woken up, and the two of them had eaten the breakfast I had cooked.
I want to take Wu Xiugu to the hospital, before leaving, Tang Muzhou said: "Tang Xiaofan, how did you think about expanding your business, I just learned about the situation with Liang Yuan, if all this is true, then your situation is very urgent now." ”
I sighed.
Tang Muzhou said again: "It's all a family, and my money is not of much use at the moment, you can take it first." ”
I glanced at Wu Xiugu, and I found that when Tang Muzhou was talking, her eyes kept staring at each other, and she didn't relax for a moment.
Tang Muzhou didn't have a special impression of Wu Xiugu.
Every time he looked at Wu Xiugu, the woman lowered her head and tried her best to dodge.
On the way to the hospital, we walked.
I finally couldn't help but ask her, "Sister Wu, have you seen my cousin before?" ”
Her expression was a little dazed, I called her a few times, she seemed to hear, I asked again, she did not answer me immediately, bowed her head and seemed to meditate for a while before saying:
"I haven't met him, he just looks a little bit like someone I know.
I groaned.
I was about to say something, but I saw Wu Xiugu say to me: "He is your cousin?" Why don't you look alike? ”
This sudden sentence made me a little confused.
To be honest, I really don't look like Tang Muzhou.
He has a tall nose inherited from our Tang family, and mine is more collapsed.
His eyebrows are long, but my eyes are round and big.
Therefore, he and I really have nothing in common except for the surname "Tang".
I look like my mom, and I hate people saying that, but the truth is the truth, and I really can't change that.
When I came to the hospital, I happened to meet Dr. Hu who was discharged.
It was Lili who picked him up and discharged him from the hospital.
We said hello.
Although I knew that it was not the right time, I still mentioned Meimei's matter.
He thought about it for a while, and said that he would go to the neighborhood committee in a few days to talk about it and get rid of the adoption relationship.
Watching him get into the car with Lili, I suddenly remembered Ou Fang.
sighed.
Life is so cruel and ruthless......
