Chapter 20: I ...... Lose your marbles?

Yes, I saw a word from the criss-crossing streets of Wucheng, a very dangerous word......

You could say, maybe just a little bit like. I don't see it that way. After a series of bizarre events in Lop Nur, I believe, that's one word!

…… I turned off the map and put my phone in my pocket.

Meng Xiaoshuai's phone rang, she looked at it, but didn't answer.

It is estimated that Wu Min called.

Meng Xiaoshuai didn't notice my abnormal demeanor, she was talking to me: "Boss Zhou, what do you think of Wu Min?" ”

I said, "You know him better." ”

Meng Xiaoshuai said: "I want to know what you think of him. ”

I said, "He's smart and talkative." In the future, he may become a big man or a villain with no bottom line. ”

Meng Xiaoshuai said: "It makes sense. ”

As she spoke, her phone rang again, and this time she answered.

Sure enough, it was Wu Min, and I could hear his voice, very clearly: "Xiaoshuai, where are you?" ”

Meng Xiaoshuai said: "Boss Zhou and I went out for a ride. ”

Wu Min said: "I'll also take a taxi for a ride, or I'll go to you, let's have a threesome?" ”

Meng Xiaoshuai said: "We went back to the resort. ”

Wu Min said, "Okay, I'll go back too." Bye. ”

Meng Xiaoshuai hung up the phone directly.

When we arrived at the resort, Oh Min was looking around at the door. Obviously, he was looking for Meng Xiaoshuai.

When we got out of the car, Wu Min ran over.

I sensitively asked, "No...... What's going on? ”

Wu Min said, "No, I'll pick you up." ”

Actually, I was hoping that something would happen, for example, Wu Min suddenly told me that the monsoon had returned. Or: all the staff at the resort are suddenly gone......

I think there's something wrong with this Wu Cheng.

However, it has been fine, which makes me uneasy.

At noon, when everyone was eating in the restaurant, Guo Mei and Bai Xinxin sat together.

Bai Xinxin had a good appetite and drank two bottles of beer alone. He said happily: "When I go out, I want to write a novel about what happened in Lop Nur, which will definitely sell well in China!" ”

Meng Xiaoshuai said: "Boss Zhou is a writer! ”

Bai Xinxin glanced at me: "He wrote that he was the protagonist, and I wrote that I was the protagonist." ”

I kept my head down to eat. I didn't bother to talk to him.

Guo Mei said: "Do you know how to make movies? ”

Bai Xinxin said: "Definitely, and it will be in 3D." ”

Guo Mei said: "Don't forget your little sister when the time comes!" ”

After a hurried lunch, I left early and went back to my room.

Closing the door and closing the curtains, I opened the map on my phone again and continued to observe the streets of Wucheng.

Those streets do make up a single word, and that word is "void". Of course, unlike the canonical characters, the adjacent strokes are connected.

When I zoom in on the map, the word "imaginary" becomes smaller; I reduced the scale of the map, and the word "imaginary" became larger.

I looked up the online dictionary, and the first explanation of the word "void" is - emptiness, for example: nothingness.

Our resort is located on the far right side of the tiger prefix.

The non-existent city government is at the "point" above.

Is this Wu Cheng illusory, false, illusory?

How do you explain the sweet smile of the waitress?

What do those dedicated taxi drivers explain?

How do those police officers explain it?

How do you explain those high-rise buildings?

How do you explain the rooms we live in, the meals we eat, the things we go through these days?

It occurred to me that I was crazy.

There was a knock on the door, and I asked, "Who?" ”

A female voice came from outside the door: "Waiter, sir, do you need to clean the room?" ”

I hesitated.

Could it be another plan by the police? Last time, they were arresting Zhanghui, who are they arresting this time?

I walked over and opened the door.

There was a girl standing outside the door, chubby, very cute. There was no one behind her.

I said, "Come in." ”

And the girl came in.

When I stayed in the hotel, I rarely asked the waiters to clean the room, I felt that they were too hard, I could clean up by myself as much as possible, but today is different, I want to talk to a person from Wucheng.

When the girl enters, she makes her bed.

I stood behind her and said, "Girl, what is your surname?" ”

She didn't look back and said, "My surname is Huang." ”

I said, "What's your name?" ”

She said, "Just call me Xiao Huang." ”

I said, "I'm not a bad person. ”

"We have rules that don't allow you to talk to guests," she said. ”

I said, "Oh......"

The girl's movements were swift, she made the bed and went to clean up the bathroom again.

After a while, I walked over and asked again, "What do you think of Wu Cheng?" ”

She looked back and asked with a smile, "How's that?" ”

I said, "Do you like this city?" ”

She said, "I can't talk about whether I like it or not. ”

I suddenly said, "Do you think this city exists?" ”

She looked at me again, a little confused: "Sir, what did you say?" ”

I watched her expression and continued, "I think the city is fake. ”

She laughed and said, "You're kidding. ”

I said seriously, "I'm not kidding. ”

She stopped smiling, looked at me very seriously, and said, "I have been coming to Wucheng since I was in junior high school, and I have lived for so many years, how can it be fake?" ”

I stared at her and said, "I suspect you're a fake too." ”

She was stunned for a moment and whispered, "Sir, can you let me go?" It's time for me to suck the ground......"

I got out of the way, and she walked past me, then picked up the vacuum, turned it up to its highest gear, and started vacuuming. The room was filled with the noise of vacuum cleaners: "Woo-"

I could see that she didn't want to talk to me anymore, she just wanted to get her done and leave.

I didn't give up: "You didn't know you were fake!" You think you're a little yellow, you think you're working at this resort, but in fact, your body, your feelings, your memories, your dreams, and your life are all fake! ”

She turned off the vacuum cleaner, the room fell silent, she looked at me, and said something very surprising to me: "Since I have a body, feelings, memories, dreams, and life, then I am real." ”

I couldn't think of anything to argue with her for a moment, she had already put away the vacuum cleaner, rag and garbage bag and hurried out of my room.

When the door closed, I was confused again – was I normal?

I sat on the couch and asked myself: What is three minus one?

I replied in my heart: two!

Is three minus one equal to two?

I counted on my fingers, and yes, it's two!

Apparently, I'm not crazy.

Soon, I was not confident again, an adult, maybe ask yourself what is three minus one?

Am I crazy?

I closed my eyes, calmed my manic thoughts, and said to myself: your heart is so strong, it is impossible to be crazy, it is the world that is crazy.

Well, the world is crazy.

I opened my eyes suddenly, stared at the snow-white wall opposite, and thought: How can a normal person think that the world is crazy?

Let's talk about chapter back.

Zhang Hui was taken to the Public Security Bureau, where he poured beans in a bamboo tube, recruited them all, and was transferred to the detention center that night.

The Wucheng Detention Center is located in the north of the city, with a black gate and a national emblem hanging high. Barbed wire was pulled on top of the high wall, and the armed police on the watchtower were loaded with guns and ammunition, walking back and forth. Several crows hovered overhead.

There were a total of 12 prisoners in Zhanghui's cell.

After the prison guards brought him in, there was a "clang" and the cell door was locked. The guard glanced in meaningfully, then left.

Zhang Hui was holding a thin old quilt that had been given to him by the detention center.

He stood in the doorway, surveying the cell.

The 11 prisoners sat on the bunks and stared at him. The lights were dim, and the men were all dressed in yellow prison uniforms, shaved bald, deep and shallow, and shining blue.

What makes Zhang Hui feel strange is that the person who sleeps in the head bunk should be the cell boss prison bully, but he looks very thin, about 30 years old, his eyes are like he can't wake up, and he looks at Zhang Hui wiltingly, not fierce. He was wrapped in a quilt.

The person who slept in the second bunk was five big and three thick, and there was a long scar on the top of his head, which was very obvious. He is also in his 30s.

Zhang Hui is from the Northeast, and the people imprisoned here are all from the Northwest, so he must be a bully. The so-called Siberian tiger, Northwest wolf, Zhang Hui only has the share of being a cow and a horse.

Sure enough, Scar shouted, "Stand still!" ”

Zhang Hui hurriedly stood upright.

Scar asked, "What did you do?" ”

Zhang Hui whispered: "Murder ......"

It stands to reason that everyone should be afraid of murderers, and if you kill someone, you will have to pay for your life, and a person who is about to die, what is he afraid of? It's a big deal to die with you.

At the very least, the people in the cell should also give the murderer a little respect, he is not a corrupt person or a rapist.

Scar laughed, "Murderer? Fuck you, you're not cowardly! How to kill, give me a show. ”

Zhang Hui stood in place, put the quilt on the ground, and really put on a show - raised his hand, as if grasping a knife, and stabbed it downward......

Scar said, "Enough is enough!" It's so bloody, I don't want to see it! How much money do you bring in? ”

Zhang Hui took out the prison guard's seizure slip, walked over respectfully, and handed it to Scar.

Scar looked at it: "It's only more than 800 dollars?" ”

Zhang Hui said: "I'm sorry ......"

Scar said: "Seeing that you are very honest, we will not engage you, you owe us a beating, save it first, and wait until one day you break the rules to settle the account together." Nurse, teach him the rules. ”

A chubby prisoner on the shop immediately shouted to Zhang Hui, "Come here!" ”

Zhang Hui hurriedly passed.

The nurse stood on the bunk, condescending, pointed to the thin prisoner in the bunk, and said to Zhang Hui: "The person in the bunk is called Yang Lidong, he is our eldest brother, you have to do whatever he asks you to do." As soon as the iron door is opened, the cadres are the largest; As soon as the iron gate is closed, the eldest brother is the biggest. Got it? ”

Zhang Hui hurriedly said, "Understood." ”

The nurse threw Zhang Hui a piece of soap and said, "Go take a bath, wash it clean, and don't bring the disease in." ”

Next to the squatting toilet, there is a faucet, 1 meter above the ground. Zhang Hui stripped naked, squatted under the faucet, and washed it "with a bang". The water was cold.

Yang Lidong looked at his nakedness, his eyes still wilting.

After washing, Zhang Hui put on his clothes.

The nurse said, "Now, go face the wall and recite the rules." I'm going to test you in a moment. ”

The prison rules were posted on the wall at the end of the cell, next to Yang Lidong's bunk, Zhang Hui walked over carefully, stood straight in front of the prison rules, and then began to memorize.

The cell was silent.

After a while, Zhang Hui slowly turned his head and looked at Yang Lidong.

Yang Lidong didn't speak, he looked at Zhang Hui, and the scar next to Yang Lidong shouted: "Look at what!" Look at it again, pluck out your eyeballs! ”

Zhang Hui ignored Scar, he spoke to Yang Lidong, his voice was very small, and he could hear that he was very embarrassed: "Can I sleep in your bunk tonight?" ”

Scar jumped up: "What do you say! ”

Yang Lidong wilted and stretched out his hand to block the scar, and he asked Zhang Hui very sincerely: "Why?" ”

Zhang Hui didn't answer him, but just whispered, "If you insist on sleeping here, then I'll sleep on you." ”
