"Xiao Gao? How are you distracted? Chen Yue sat in the passenger seat, blinking and asking me.

The green light flashes at the intersection, and the vehicle in front slows down.

"It's a red light... Pay attention to the distance between cars! Chen Yue shuddered and immediately arched my arm.

I looked at her apologetically, unable to speak for a long time.

"Xiao Gao, haven't you been playing too crazy lately... Right... I'm sorry. Chen Yue's eyes suddenly dimmed, full of self-reproachful speculation.

I wrapped the back of Chen Yue's hand and patted it gently, "Fool... Nothing. It's just that something distracted me just now. ”

"Really? But you've been like this since the day. Whether it's at the mall or lunch, you're in a state of spoilage. ”

I glanced at Chen Yue apologetically again.

As he spoke, the traffic slowly moved forward. Chen Yue motioned for me to go through the intersection first and then "report" to her.

Fengxia City is highly densely populated, and even at this time of the week, the traffic is still comparable to the rush hour on a weekday. After finally passing the intersection, I had to slow down with the Audi in front of me.

On the street, car horns blazed one after another, and only a touch of the sunset slanted into the car window, which made me feel a little comfortable.

"Xiao Gao? What can distract you from driving? ”

When Chen Yue called my name, there seemed to be an impact in his heart.

I couldn't help but look in the rearview mirror, "Yue'er, have you heard of the mirror theory?" ”

"What?"

"Psychologist Emerson once said, 'Each person's rank and identity are precisely contained in his eyes, and it can reflect the class and position to which a person belongs.'" So, train your eyes to be full of confidence... And mirrors can help you. ’”

"Poof... Have you been studying psychology lately? No wonder psychologists are crazy. ”

I was noncommittal about Chen Yue's coaxing, but I still flinched in my heart, and the topic I just wanted to get out of my mouth swallowed back at once.

Once again, I glanced in the rearview mirror, and the unfinished words of the second half suddenly formed a powerful memory picture... Flashes in my head.

About half a month ago... Fengxia City Hospital.

"Eyes? Doctor, do you mean that my recent hallucinations have nothing to do with a brain abnormality? "When the director, Dr. Cai, finished talking to me about Emerson's psychological quotes, I was as surprised as Chen Yue is now.

Dr. Cai shook his head, "What I just quoted is just a psychologist's words, not that there is something wrong with your eyes. On the contrary, your frequent visual and auditory hallucinations may be related to your spirit.

If the eyes see themselves, in beneficial ways, they can help you to know yourself more completely; But on the other hand, if you have psychological or mental problems, the role of the mirror may not be to promote self-awareness. ”

"What could that be?"

"Alas... I can't tell. Some people may see other images, people or objects in the mirror, but whatever it is, according to psychology, it is something hidden in their subconscious. It may be a fragment of amnesia, or it may be a shadow of childhood, which varies from person to person. ”

In a trance, Chen Yue called me again: "Xiao Gao? You're wandering again... Isn't it still thinking about the mind theory of the eyes and the mirror? ”

"Oh, I don't want to. After one more traffic light, you will be at the restaurant. Yue'er, you contact Aya and see where they are. ”

I prevaricated and turned the conversation to tonight's meeting.

After Chen Yue finished talking to Aya, she grinned and said, "Aya and Ah Cong have already arrived at the restaurant... However, there seems to be something unexpected there. ”

Chen Yue paused and explained: "Aya didn't say anything specifically, but I could hear some movement from the phone, as if a group of people were complaining about some dissatisfaction. Alas... Xinghuacun Restaurant is quite famous, what can be the mess? ”

Chen Yue suddenly said the name of the restaurant, and I still couldn't help but shudder... The ghost glanced at himself in the rearview mirror.

This time, although I didn't see a tearful face, my expression was still quite strange, as if I had lost my most cherished thing in the Xinghuacun Restaurant, and now I want to revisit the old place, I can't help but feel sad.

There was silence all the way, and after about 20 minutes, Chen Yue led me into this restaurant with an extraordinary reputation.

Looking at Chen Yue, who flew into Aya's arms, I still smiled heartily. After all, no matter how much trouble there is, it is extremely easy to be melted by Chen Yue's cheerful character.

I walked straight to the center of the lobby where they were standing.

Ah Cong glanced back at me, showing the expression of a dead friend, and after signaling, "Why did you come", then turned his head sideways to look back in the direction he had been staring.

The lobby is bustling, and there is no elegant atmosphere that can only be found in high-end hotels.

"What are these people doing?" Chen Yue asked Aya in surprise.

I looked in the direction of Chen Yue's finger, and then I realized the reason why it was not elegant.

I saw that at the entrance of the elevator in the hall, three or five people dressed as workers were carrying long square objects wrapped in white cloth.

Behind the worker, a huge man weighed the angle of entering the elevator, and yelled at the two lean men who were carrying the square object and standing inside and outside the elevator respectively: "Give me some numbness, if it is broken... Hmph, don't blame the boss for deducting wages. ”

As the elevator closes here, the fat man turns around and directs the workers at the entrance of another elevator.

"Cut, it's really unqualified." I muttered, and I could see whose "masterpiece" this noisy and invulnerable atmosphere came from.

"What are they doing?" Chen Yue looked at it for a long time and asked Aya in a daze.

"I don't know, it was like this half an hour ago. I heard that a wealthy merchant was preparing to throw a feast and politely drove away the other guests who had booked their seats. Whoa..."

As he spoke, Aya raised his hand and pointed at the fat man, "The guests who were occupied by the venue also left because they were compensated several times by the wealthy businessmen... Others, a little bit of principle, simply negotiated with the restaurant management and moved to other floors. ”

"The problem is solved, what are you making all the noise about?" Chen Yue then asked.

"It's because the elevator is used as a freight elevator by a wealthy businessman... Anyone will have an exploding mentality. "For Chen Yue's stupid white sweetness, I teased.

Chen Yue gave me a blank look. At this time, the crowd, which was originally boiling, suddenly stopped arguing.

In the midst of the insults, the guests on the lower floors of the banquet all recognized the planting and lined up to go down the corridor.

"By the way, Yue'er, which floor are we going to set on?" I asked her as I looked in the direction of the long line.

Chen Yue stretched out a slap, bent two fingers again, and said with a veiled face: "Three ~ floors." ”

Helplessly, a group of four of us had to walk with the public in the corridor of the side door.

The sound of footsteps echoed in the stairwell, filled with all kinds of criticism and invective.

At this moment, walking behind us, an old woman on crutches complained angrily: "I'm a bastard, an old bastard. All the elevators were occupied by him, carrying a white cloth to enter the third floor, hum, it must be a funeral banquet, bad luck! ”

The four of us immediately looked at each other, and Chen Yue lowered his voice: "It won't be so unlucky, the room we booked is on the third floor."

When I raised my eyes, it was already the platform on the third floor.

Moving on is not, retreating and blocking the crowd. Somehow, the four of us dodged and entered the side door on the third floor.

"Hey! Young man, big girl, wrong, wrong, this is the third floor, funeral banquet, funeral banquet! The old woman behind her was hysterical with a cane on our group of "astrayed" young people.

The pace of everyone walking towards the fourth floor came to an abrupt end, and with embarrassment, Chen Yue adjusted his wry smile, looked back and said to the old woman: "Thank you, grandma, our friend just went to the wrong room, let's go... Oh yes, we're going to help them right up. ”

While praising Chen Yue's cleverness, I looked back at the banquet hall on the third floor.

How so?

"This place... Such a scene... Why is it so familiar? It's as if what I'm going through right now happened sometime in the past! "Looking at the layout of the third floor in front of me and the three people around me, I couldn't tell the difference between reality and imagination.

I swallowed tightly, and a sense of foreboding quickly enveloped me. After a while, I realized that such a scene had appeared in my dreams!

When Chen Yue and the others were thinking about the solution to the "encroachment" of the private room on the third floor, they saw that I didn't say a word, so they asked me again: "Xiao Gao?" What do you think? ”

I snapped back to my senses, and was about to say, "Let's change restaurants," when the elevator door next to me slowly opened.

Walked out of a middle-aged woman dressed in formal clothes, with a high ponytail, gold-wire glasses, a self-familiar appearance, and said with a smile: "Oh, I'm dripping mom." Fortunately, I just checked today's arrangement, otherwise I would have left you handsome men and beautiful women behind. ”

We looked at each other, puzzled and waiting for the middle-aged woman's explanation.

The woman pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose, and the lenses reflected the diffuse astigmatism on the top of the corridor, only to hear her slowly speak: "Hehe... You are very lucky, although the rich merchant temporarily requisitioned the third floor, but... Why are you children so cared for? ”

As she spoke, the woman raised her hand and pointed to the end of the corridor and continued, "There are sixteen rooms on the third floor, of which fifteen rooms are lined up on one side of the corridor, except for the sixteenth room at the corner at the end. ”

Come on, talking in circles with the female fox turned out to be telling us that we picked up something that others didn't want, and that we should be glad about it.

Ah Cong and I were both sullen, but Chen Yue's stupid white sweetness actually said happily: "That means I was lucky, I ordered room 0316, and I picked up a big bargain!" ”

"Alas," the two big men sighed at the same time.

But this time, I don't want to get used to Yue'er, because the ominous feeling in my heart has not dissipated.

"That..."

As soon as I spoke, the closed elevator door opened again, and out of it came two men dressed as workers, one in front of the other and one behind, holding something wrapped in a white cloth.

The man who got out of the elevator first glanced at the five of us and turned to head down the corridor.

The man who followed him looked at us in the same way.

When he looked at me, I could see his appearance clearly: creamy and handsome, no matter how you look at it, this temperament does not look like he is engaged in porter.

He looked at me with a strange look, as if he had discovered a species he had never seen before, staring straight at me, but he didn't keep up with the former's pace, only to hear a "bang" and the crisp sound of glass shattering echoed.

Everyone was so shocked that they looked straight away.

But the cream boy didn't seem to know it, and he still stared at me in surprise for a long time... I only saw the corners of his mouth twitching, and he stopped talking.

"Do we know each other?" I asked, frowning.
