Since the last incident of impersonating Xiao Zhu, European Airlines has been hiding quietly like a frightened mouse. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info did not come to harass Zhong Xian again.
When Zhong Xian reached out to him, he was more respectful than before.
"Mr. Zhong. You finally called me. Your voice makes me feel like a spring breeze, and I have been waiting for you as a savior. ”
"Speak well."
"The police didn't suspect me anymore, did they?"
"I don't know." Zhong Xian said. "Did the police look for you again?"
"Nope. Last time you covered for me...... It's a good thing you're there, otherwise the police would have caught up with me, and I wouldn't have been able to argue......"
"What have you been up to lately? No, just hide at home and shiver. ”
"I was dragged by relatives to help with the wedding."
"It's good, it's promising."
"Don't make a fuss. What a way out. There is no hope. Does the police suspect anyone now?"
"I don't know what the police think. But what are you afraid of? You didn't say that you just pretended to be Xiao Zhu's name to meet the customer, and it has nothing to do with his disappearance. ”
"Yes. And so it is. But Xiao Zhu has been missing for so long, he must be dead. I don't know who he provoked, the corpse doesn't even have a hair left, what if it's a powerful person who takes the opportunity to use me as a scapegoat, and I have no family background and someone killed me in the background. ”
"You think of this society as terrible."
"It's a fact. I don't think I thought that way when I graduated from college, I was tortured by Mr. Li......"
"Mention him again."
"Don't mention it." European Airlines sighed. "Is there still no clue about Xiao Zhu?"
Zhong Xian was silent for a moment, unaware of the cancellation of the case. "He's not dead. Part-time job in Macau. ”
"Xiao Zhu in Macau? How is that possible?" European Airlines was surprised. It's tantamount to thinking that this result is more unlikely than the moon hitting the earth.
"You should be glad the police found him. You don't stand a chance of being framed. ”
"What does he have to do to go to Macau? He's bragging again. ”
"Is it something to work in Macau? He's there anyway. ”
"Did you see him in person?"
"What do you mean?"
"Did the police see him alive in Macau?"
"I don't know. That's a matter for the police. ”
"Even if I see him standing in front of the Ruins of St. Paul's in Macau, I won't believe it." European Airlines said indignantly.
"You can't be jealous, right?" Zhong Xian laughed. After a pause, he said, "Do you still have the strength to make money?"
European Airlines was still immersed in the doubts about the outcome of Xiao Zhu's case, and it took a while to react, confirming in disbelief: "You are finally willing to take me?"
"Hmm."
"Interesting, you finally understand me. I've been nice to you from the beginning, and you should know that I've never told anyone about you. Belch...... I don't mean anything else, we should be absolutely honest with each other, right? I have only one question, and that is...... And Dake, isn't it?"
"Yes."
"You have to trust me. I definitely know more people in the company for more than three years, better than you. Dake and Mr. Li learned a trick - the honey belly sword. Now that you have the ability and the future, he will do everything in his power to attach himself to you. But in case you have a bad day, he will definitely abandon you, fall into the lower stone, and even take the opportunity to ascend to the top. You have to believe that he has done this before. Xiao Zhu was far less bad than he is now, and Dake used to be very good with him. Alas, I won't say it. But me, you can trust me absolutely. Since we do things together, I will share the glory and disgrace with you. ”
"It's just to make money and talk about honor and disgrace." Zhong Xian said coldly. "I just ask you if you can live peacefully with Dake and work together."
"If you want me to do it. I'll do it. It's easier than dealing with Mr. Li's traitor. ”
"Do a good job, and I won't treat you badly. Make an appointment for an interview. ”

It was another rainy and misty evening.
The sky is obscured by clouds, the light is getting darker,
Gradually, the last faint trace of gray-white sank to the back of the tall buildings.
Zhong Xian hid the car in an unnamed path near the back of Lychee Park.
When the daylight is in full swing in the lychee park around me, the trees are red and the water is clear. As soon as the daylight faded, the faint glow on the path, and the dark shadows on the lake, seemed to immediately turn this place into a place of ghostly energy.
Tall palms covered the trail, and the street lights were not lit, leaving the bellstrings in darkness just after the evening.
He didn't turn on the lights in the car.
In the dark,
Feel like you're part of the world around you. Hands, feet, and bodies melt into it. His tentacles stretched far – two streets away, the Grand Theater Square at the other end of the park.
He seems to be connected to everyone,
No more alone.
But he just wanted to find someone.
From this position on this road, he could see the entrance to the villa area where Deng Yi's house was located. Today, he finally knows that this area is indeed not simple, it is the earliest villa complex of SZ, gathering the older generation of businessmen, politicians, and upper class who came here to work hard and succeed.
Deng Yi is likely to have an extraordinary background.
It should have been glimpsed from his maverick, pure self-style.
But perhaps there are exceptions. Perhaps the family background has declined, and the new generation needs to work again. Otherwise, why would he bother to be a nameless little policeman.
Zhong Xian has been waiting for three days. Wait an hour every evening to read a book. There are very few cars and people coming and going at the intersection. When someone passed by, he looked up.
But I never saw Deng Yi.
He didn't choose to bother him. did not use his usual methods and tricks to harvest people's hearts and benefits like he did with customers.
For Deng Yi, he didn't want to do this.
His need for this comes more from his inner self. He wanted to be resonant. Resonance means that the other party should also take the initiative to speak up and feel something.
Otherwise, he'd rather sit here, read a book, and drink a bottle of wine.
Today he brought a bottle of wine.
In the end, the book was gone.
Just drink.
He had been suffering from insomnia for three days and had a splitting headache. He burned with the energy of his youthful body.
but never renewed.
It seems to be burning out.
He knew he had to fight. But what is he fighting for?
In order to survive. Just surviving?
The heart is like a desert, and no matter how beautiful people and things are, they can't be interested. Is this all about survival?
Deng Yi seems to be the one who can peek into his world, and he tears a little hole in the sky above his world.
But perhaps, it's all an illusion. Because he is too eager to exist such a person and give himself a chance.
Zhong Xin started to have a headache.
He pressed his temples tightly.

The next morning, Zhong Sine sat in a conference room at RG Technology.
RG is one of the upstream product suppliers that Bell Sine has worked with on the PR HLHA project, and the company's integrated ceiling system has been successfully applied to the show houses on two construction sites. Mr. Hong, the boss of RG Company, invited Zhong Xian to work in RG Company several times after learning that he had resigned. Repeatedly rejected by the bell strings. Two days ago, Mr. Hong threw out an olive branch again and gave Zhong Xian the position of general manager of SZ area, and Zhong Xian promised to help him do it for three months first.
But the bell strings are not attracted by the location. It's because Mr. Hong mentioned the new product he was working on.
At a quarter past nine, the conference room was filled with employees from the SZ area.
Mr. Hong enthusiastically introduced: "This young and promising, younger than many of you, is Mr. Zhong - our newly appointed general manager. And that one is ......" Mr. Hong pointed to Dake who came with Zhong Xian.
Zhong Xian glanced at Dake and was about to introduce him. Dake took the initiative to say: "I am Mr. Zhong's assistant. It's his dowry. He has many years of experience in the engineering materials industry. I started this business after graduating from college. In the future, I hope to learn more from my new colleagues. Thank you. ”
"Let Mr. Zhong say a few words." Mr. Hong said. The room burst into applause.
Zhong Xian's gaze was still floating on the ceiling. Dake looked at him suspiciously. It was strange why he was able to get distracted when everyone was looking at him.
Zhong Xian showed a warm smile: "My style of doing things is very clear. Everybody. "He opened without saying hello." I have only one request for you - to work wholeheartedly during your working hours, and to devote every second of your work to work; When you get off work, you can concentrate on eating, drinking, and living. That's all I have to say. The finance department prepares my reserves. The rest of the departments are back to their respective posts. The marketing department and the product department stayed. ”
On the grounds of testing professional ability, Zhong Xian tossed his colleagues in the marketing department and the product department for a day.
Roughly figured out the problems of this company.
Management chaos. Product reservations are not clear. This shows that Mr. Hong's personal problems are not small.
However, RG is a bright spot in the direction of new product development. This advantage may not even be realized by Mr. Hong himself.
"You're not afraid that they will hate you?" Dake whispered after Zhong Xian as he left the company in the evening.
"Hate? Most of them are older than me. If I don't toss them hard, they will be unbalanced. ”
"Is that the truth?" Dake blinked. He shook an object in his hand at the bellstring. "I have studied the technical details of the integrated ceiling system. I'll study it well when I go back in the evening. However, this is not something we can do privately. Too technically difficult. ”
"What do you mean by private?" Zhong Xian glanced at Dake. "Ate the word. Don't say it again. ”
"Yes, yes, we're down to business."
"European Airlines has already figured out the Yijiao mud in Huizhou. It's up to the two of us next. Two projects in the next quarter, strive for 200 tons to enter the site. ”
"European Airlines has only been in Huizhou for two days to figure it out? Do you believe in him so? He's a ......."
"What's so hard about that thing? It's just cement mixed with adhesive material. I know the production process, but I just want him to master the final proportion. Later, I will be able to operate and supervise the production myself. ”
"Oooh. Only 200 tons of two projects entered the site, which is a little less. ”
"In the early stage, we only signed the ground, not the wall. On the wall, we look for the original one to cooperate. ”
"Why?"
"I really don't understand?" Zhong Xian smiled, he sometimes reveled in the evil side of his heart. "Even if the ground doesn't stick firmly, it won't come off quickly." He walked out of the office building with a smile and got into his car.
But this pride, when stopped, becomes a bitter bile-like thing that drips down his heart.
He drove the car, threw down Dake, and went to the path behind Lychee Park. Guarding the entrance of Deng Yi's house.
He pulled a bottle of wine out of the trunk.
He didn't eat much at noon. I didn't eat dinner even more, and I drank the wine on an empty stomach.
Driving back to his home from this trail takes only ten minutes after 9 p.m., and he doesn't have to worry about getting caught drunk driving. And by that time, he was probably halfway awake from his wine.
He quickly drank the bottle. I didn't even feel anything.
He got out of the car, carried the empty wine bottle, walked in the darkness to the location of the garbage bin in his memory, and threw the wine bottle towards the imaginary garbage bin. He heard the sound of bottles shattering on the stones, and it was so crisp. He remembered his guitar.
He walked back to the car, intending to open the trunk and get another bottle of wine.
Suddenly, he felt dizzy and lightheaded, he held on to the car, but he couldn't stand still, his body was like a gummy, leaning against the door, sliding to the ground, and falling headlong.
He had insomnia for three days,
Hardly eating dinner,
Drink one bottle of wine a day on an empty stomach.
In his limited consciousness, he kept calculating his current condition. The fuel in the young man's body was probably burned out. will collapse in an instant.
Splitting headaches. It was as if the soul was about to break free from his head.
He thought he might just die. Tomorrow's newspaper may have a piece of news about him - an unknown dead body has been found, the cause of death is unknown. He could be relieved. He will be worse than Xiao Zhu. Because no one will report the case and look for the missing person.
With limited strength, he reached for the phone in his pocket. Dialed the phone to European Airlines. European Airlines is roaming the streets of Huizhou; He made another phone call to Dake, who was having dinner with his new girl.
He didn't call them for help.
He found Deng Yi's number.
But he was not reconciled.
He tucked his phone back into his pocket. Looking at the dark sky above the path.
It was only then that he profoundly realized that his life had no meaning.
He had fought for what it was. What he's after. It's all invisible and silent.
