She was woken up by a knock on the window.

The sleepy bug in her head hadn't been scattered for a while, and she held the steering wheel and looked at the lane in front of her.

The person knocking on the window is not in a hurry, not annoyed, not in a hurry, and "knock, knock......" is very rhythmic.

She rolled down the window.

Face a police badge.

“Hi Miss, are you all right? Need any help? No paking is allowed here.”

("Miss, are you alright?") Need help? This does not allow parking. ”)

He was dressed in a clean uniform, gloves and helmet, and behind him was the same clean and shiny patrol car, smiling like a spring breeze.

She felt like what little confusion she had left had been wiped out.

“I am sorry. I just felt a little dizzy, so I had a rest to put myself together. I didn't expect that I would end up falling asleep.”

("I'm sorry. I was just a little dizzy and wanted to take a break to cheer up, but I didn't expect to fall asleep. ”)

“Oh, I see. ID, please.”

("Oh, that's right.") Please show your ID. ”)

She handed over the passport, ID card, car rental card, driver's license in her bag.

The man looked over and said, "Miss Shen Xihuan, Chinese?" Welcome to country S. ”

"Thank you. You are so good in Chinese. ”

"Of course, most of our GDP comes from tourism, and the Chinese contribute more than 80% of that tourism revenue. Chinese is our second mother tongue. His smile grew more and more warm, "Although there are no cars here, it is still dangerous to park on the side of the road." Need us to escort you? ”

"Oh no, I'm fine. Excuse me...... Guys. She looked in the rearview mirror, and there was a policeman in the same costume at the back of the car.

He handed back his papers.

"In this direction, you are going to the beach, I recommend you to taste our seafood cans."

"yes, I'm just going to eat at If U Stay there. My brother made an appointment for the 'National Day Special Seafood Set', which is very exciting......" Her eyes were shining brightly, and her cheeks were dyed as red as a cloud.

Before he finished speaking, the other party was obviously stunned, and the smile that he had given away a second ago regardless of the cost was instantly pasted on his face.

"Miss, what day is today?"

She secretly wondered, what a nonsensical question, why did her own country's National Day date come to ask her as a tourist?

"August 14th."

"August 14th? …… It's April 7th, and the restaurant closed two years ago. ”

Hearing this, her smile stiffened, the corners of her mouth seemed to have been pricked, and she twitched twice, not knowing how to place it.

The policeman seemed to think of something, and exchanged two sentences with his partner in the back of the car, "... yes, yes, it was 2012…”

"It was supposed to be closed three years ago, after the National Day in 2012, and the owner had a heart attack...... Miss, you ...... Are you sure you're okay? Have you ever taken medication? ……”

Shen Xihuan was like being struck by lightning, and her soul seemed to be split into smoke, and it evaporated from her pores with the other party's words.

"No, today is August 14th, 2012, Ah Yue said he took me to eat......" she muttered in a low voice, completely blocking the words behind the patrolman, trembling and touching her phone.

At this time, another patrol officer seemed to have discovered something, and patted the trunk to signal to his companion. He walked over.

The rearview mirror reflected the increasingly solemn expressions of the two of them, and a puddle of unclear liquid on the ground.

He walked back, his expression tense and serious, "Miss Shen, please open the trunk and get out of the car slowly." Please make sure I can always see your hands. ”

Shen Xihuan held his mobile phone, his face was pale, and the screen of his mobile phone showed: April 7, 2015 at 4:36 pm.
