Chapter 5 Back

During the winter vacation of 2007, I had to come back for a few days during the summer and winter vacations, the first was to see the elders, and the second was to get together with my group of friends. On the train I came back, I sent a group text message with the words "I'm back". I didn't get off the train and received a call from one of my hair boys, he was five years older than me, I loved to play with people older than me since I was a child, we have a particularly close relationship, 08 years he was doing engineering in the 14th Bureau of China Railway, when he was just a small quality inspector. We made an appointment to meet at Lei Lei at half past seven in the evening, so we hung up the phone. My hobby is very special, I like to eat barbecue in winter and hot pot in summer, which happens to be the opposite of others. It seems that my brother hasn't forgotten my habits, and he was a little moved.

I arrived early at seven o'clock, and there were a few buddies who came to pick me up at the station, so I went home to have a look, and then put down my luggage and we went straight to the barbecue restaurant. Called buddy when he arrived and learned that he was picking up his girlfriend today and was going to show us a few little brothers our future sister-in-law. In the store, we watched TV, ate skewers on the small stove, and drank cold beer that was chilled to the marrow.

I sat with my back to the door, and suddenly I saw my friend across from me saying hello to the door again, I raised my hand and looked at my watch, it was almost half past seven, and I would have to be punished for drinking a minute late, and it seemed that my brother had escaped. I looked back, my brother's body was still thin but very strong, with a happy smile on his face, and his eyes were full of energy. He was holding a girl by the hand, and he was a good match, with a weak figure, but very beautiful and bumpy. The happy smile on both of their faces made me believe that they would be able to come together, and this time I was not mistaken, they did enter the palace of marriage, and they are still very happy.

My buddy didn't come over and gave one of us a hug, and then sat across from me, and his girlfriend suddenly stopped when he walked behind me, and then said, "I'm going to buy a cup of milk tea, do you know where to get milk tea?" I didn't look back, I thought about it and said while eating the skewers, "There is a prosperous guest opposite Jia Leilei who goes inside." His girlfriend said thank you softly, and then signaled that the old brother did not need to accompany him and went alone. I suddenly remembered something, turned my head and shouted: "Sister-in-law, their orange milk tea and taro are delicious...."I was stunned before I finished speaking, her back was too familiar, but I forgot where I met this back for a while, which nightclub, or that KTV or a bar, or someone's party, at that time I thought about everything to the entertainment of nightlife because of work, although I didn't remember, but I was sure that I met this figure at night.

I said, "Brother, I've seen my sister-in-law, and I can't remember when and where I saw her, but my sister-in-law's back is familiar." The old brother stretched out his hand and slapped me on the head slightly, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, your sister-in-law is a good child, you won't even want to club, real animal." I smiled evilly: "Just soak it" Everyone laughed and scolded while chatting, and after a while, my sister-in-law came back, but I couldn't be so yellow and scolding.

When my sister-in-law came back, I casually handed over a barbecue and said, "Sister-in-law eats." And smiled at the old brother, and then resumed a serious book, the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother and a little brother-in-law, and she can't joke around. We chatted while talking and laughing, after three rounds of wine and five flavors, I suddenly remembered something, patted my head vigorously and said: "Brother, this time it's really not a joke, sister-in-law, I've really seen you, just told them that they still don't believe it, 03 early autumn night, I saw a back on the top of Yanyin Mountain, do you say it's you?" "In hindsight, I felt like I had drunk a little too much that night, and I didn't know what to say.

The mutton skewers in my sister-in-law's hand fell to the ground, and she looked at me with a shocked expression, and her already white face was even more bloodless. Everyone looked at us in surprise, they knew that I was right, otherwise my sister-in-law would not have such a big reaction, and then the atmosphere was depressing, everyone couldn't lift their spirits, and they ate up the rest of the skewers and checked out and left, I think this is how the atmosphere was ruined by me.

My brother thinks that I will be very upset about this, so I have to take me to Ma Lena under Quancheng Square to drink some hot cocoa, my brother really loves me, I still remember that I love to drink hot cocoa, he remembers my preferences in life, but I can't remember him, and today it also ruined the atmosphere, in case there is any unpleasant past caused by this, how can they afford to break up with me, the more I think about it, the more uncomfortable I become, and I can't wait to give myself two slaps.

I didn't continue to talk about this topic that day, and no one wanted to mention it, in fact, at that time, I thought it was a peach-colored story, such as a field battle in the mountains, so it was difficult to talk about it, and my face was pale. But in reality, this is not the case. They got married in '09, and I came back from out of town to attend the wedding.

In 10 years, I left my night club career and returned to Jinan, a land that I am both familiar and unfamiliar with, and started my own business, the moment I started the company, I thought I didn't expect that I would fail so completely, and I almost used up all my savings in the year from the opening to the end.

At this time, it happened that she left me not long ago, and the double blow of career and affection made me a little decadent, and I continued to grow a big beard, and my hair was often not cut, and my friends sometimes joked that I was a cave man. And this old brother of mine is full of career and love, ready to have children in 10 years, and he became the deputy chief of the materials department because of his own hard work and sleekness, which is a standard fat difference. When he saw my decadent appearance, he took me out to drink and chat every day, coaxed me to be happy, and was really considerate of me like a big brother. I slowly came out of the shadows, found a sales job and started from scratch, and three months later I was promoted to the position of sales executive with high sales performance and training skills for new employees.

On the day of my promotion, I bought a lot of things for my parents and family, and I also had a share of my brother and sister-in-law, I went straight to their house after I called, and we had dinner together at home, and then made a pot of tea and started talking, my sister-in-law's name is Nan Nan, and the reason why I only say my sister-in-law's name now is because it is convenient for the narration of the story later.

We chatted for a while, talked about their work anecdotes, and talked about future development, at this time my sister-in-law suddenly said: "I remember when we first met, you said that you had seen me, and I want to tell it now, because I may feel more comfortable when I say it, yes, the back you see should be me." ”

I raised my teacup to my mouth, stopped talking, and motioned for my sister-in-law to continue, and the eldest brother also stopped pouring tea for my sister-in-law and looked at my sister-in-law, it seems that he doesn't know, but he wants to know the whole story. Let me relay it to you: The story happened in 03, that year, my sister-in-law Nan Nan was just a student working and interning outside. He applied for a job in an advertising company located in Yaojia, Jinan, and the college students who had just stepped into the society were unfamiliar with the interpersonal relationships in the society, which was not at all the same as the campus environment, and they would find that everything was not as good as they imagined after stepping into the society.

The new work is full of novelty and confusion, but the overall is quite smooth, 03 autumn, the company received a large order, the customer is anxious to ask for a sample of advertising design, so they decided to work overtime all night to make the customer to make this list. The company has been working overtime until two o'clock in the evening, and everyone is reluctant to go back, because the dormitory is far away from the company, and there is a quilt for the company's new welfare products, so they have made beds on the table and prepared to make up for the night. The weather in early autumn is a little stuffy, but in the middle of the night it will be mixed with a slight coolness, maybe the water is too much, to more than three o'clock, Nan Nan suddenly remembered the night, so he staggered and stood up, rubbed his tired eyes, and when he walked to the door, he didn't pay attention to the waste paper basket on the ground, and the unused paint was scattered on the ground, Nan Nan thought that this was bad, but he was really sleepy and too lazy to clean up, so he hurriedly walked out of the office and went to the bathroom at the end of the corridor.

The moment she walked into the bathroom, she felt a feeling of being peeped at, since she was a child, there was a fortune teller who said that she was weak, so scared that she was suddenly cold, and quickly rushed into the toilet to solve it, and then she was about to run back to the office, and when she walked through the middle stairs to the office at the other end of the corridor, Nan Nan was a little relieved, she thought that many times people scare themselves.

Just as she was passing by the stairs, Nan Nan saw a dark figure standing on the stairs, and she shouted loudly, "Who is it?" She thought it should be a thief, and the room opposite the stairs was finances, and the black shadow was also alert and ran quickly downstairs, Nan Nan's brain was hot and she didn't hesitate to chase after it, it is not easy for a weak girl to have such courage. The black shadow ran and chased Nan Nan until he reached the gate and the black shadow stood still, turned his head to look at Nan Nan, but Nan Nan couldn't see the black shadow's face clearly. Nan Nan was a little timid and wanted to go back, but found that her steps couldn't move at all, so she could only keep moving forward, trying to retreat but feeling that her legs didn't belong to her at all. Nan Nan quickened her pace, wanting to go up to see the appearance of the black shadow, she only had one belief at that time, she was going to die, because she found that no matter how much she screamed, she couldn't wake up her sleeping colleagues upstairs. Nan Nan firmly pursued forward, when she walked fast, the black shadow also walked fast, and when she walked slowly, the black shadow also walked slowly, she was never able to catch up with the black shadow, and kept the same distance from the black shadow.

They walked all the way along Yaotou Road, and when they passed by WJ General Hospital, they saw a group of people shouting at the door, Nan Nan shouted at them for help, but no one paid attention to her. Nan Nan was desperate, and they climbed to the top of Yanyin Mountain along a path up the mountain next to the inkstone pond. Nan Nan suddenly found that the black shadow in front of her was gone, and disappeared out of thin air. There was only a crooked neck tree left, Nan Nan watched the crooked neck tree come out from behind the tree, a man kept waving at Nan Nan, Nan Nan couldn't control himself and walked towards the man step by step.

Suddenly there was a terrible scream, a wild cat suddenly burst out, the hair of the whole body exploded, and roared low in the direction of the tree, Nan Nan felt that she could move, she saw that there was no shadow of anyone in front of the big one, only the withered crooked neck tree, so she ran desperately, she didn't know that she could run so fast, she panicked, jumped straight down the steep slope in front of the mountain, and the potential of people when they were afraid was unlimited, The steep slope that she couldn't think of before now changed her steps so quickly and ran down Yanyin Mountain step by step, he passed through the MZ garden and ran to his company, she was panting and wanted to rush into the office, trying to wake up her colleagues, but no matter how she slammed the door, the door was tightly closed, and suddenly she wanted to be pulled by some great attraction and flew into the office at once, and then she fell unconscious, and after that she didn't know anything.

When she woke up, she found herself lying on the hospital bed standing next to the bed, looking at the case from WJ Hospital, looking at her with tears in her eyes, it was her mother, who was already a little old. The mother wiped her tears and said, "You are finally awake, why didn't you tell us that you have a heart attack?" Heart disease is impossible, she just did a comprehensive physical examination before joining the company, all the indicators of the body are very healthy, and there has never been anything like this before, sudden heart disease is too incredible for a girl in her twenties who has always been very healthy and has a regular life, she recalled vigorously, and then told her mother what happened that night intermittently.

The mother stroked her chest, apparently frightened by the story, and said: "You child, I guess I hallucinated because of the severe pain in my heart, you didn't even get off the table that day, your colleague found out that something was wrong with you and sent you to the hospital, you are in a coma until now, fortunately you are young, if you are an old man, you probably won't be able to get up." At this time, the door was suddenly opened, and a colleague came in with a fruit basket, and said with a smile: "I woke up so soon, and my body is recovering well, is it still uncomfortable?" Nan Nan knew that this colleague sent her to the hospital, so she said, "I'm much better, thank you, Sister Liu." Sister Liu took Nan Nan's hand, and said like a chatter: "Did you hear the sound of the quarrel at the door, there was a medical accident yesterday, it is said that the door has been noisy since more than three o'clock in the evening, and it will be lively just now." But the things in our unit are heartwarming enough, when I went back just now, I didn't know who kicked over the trash paper basket, and the oil paint inside was scattered all over the ground, and I didn't know if I wiped it immediately, and I took a shovel in the morning to rub it off little by little......" Sister Liu was still talking, she was the only one in the ward who was talking, she didn't see Nan Nan, who was already pale at this time, and Nan Nan's mother, who was full of surprise with wide eyes and a face full of surprise.

"That means you were out of your body at the time, so your colleagues couldn't see you and couldn't hear you, right?" The elder brother shook the last bit of hot water in the tea set and asked his sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law hugged the elder brother with some fear and said maybe. The elder brother also hugged his beloved wife hard, and then stood up and said that he wanted to add some hot water, and then a pot of black tea to taste, I looked at the figure of the elder brother and entered the kitchen door, that is a man who can be relied on.

I turned my head and suddenly felt a chill down my spine, and my sister-in-law was looking at me with a look that I had never seen before, and that look was a cold, very strange look. She kept staring at me, which made me a little nervous, and I deliberately interrupted and laughed: "Sister-in-law, why are you staring at me all the time, won't it be because I feel sorry for me that I drank a lot of your good tea." ”

A smile appeared on the corner of my sister-in-law's mouth, like a smile like the goddess of death, which made me feel uncomfortable, and I only heard her say word by word: "If no one else can see it, how did you see me that day?" I couldn't answer the question, but I clearly saw a hint of suspicion in my sister-in-law's eyes, and a hint of evil. I packed up my mobile phone, wallet and other things, said goodbye to my brother quickly, and said that I had something to do at night and hurriedly left, leaving my brother with a puzzled face.

From that day on, I only went out drinking with my brother, and never ate at home with my sister-in-law again, and despite their repeated invitations, I still didn't have the courage to face my sister-in-law's sometimes gloomy eyes.
