Chapter Ninety-Seven: A Chance Encounter with a Former Colleague
Ada was at a loss for a moment, not knowing where to go, "Isn't it all black and white impermanence on TV that takes souls to the underworld?" Why didn't black and white impermanence pick me up when I died for a long time? Ada thought to himself, but he thought to himself that maybe it was all made up on TV. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
So how to reincarnate? What is the destination of the soul? Ada was full of questions, hey! Forget it, whatever, Ada decided not to bother with these anymore, and wandered the world for a while.
I'm dead! Ada still couldn't help but sigh over and over again in his heart. Regarding death, Ada didn't think about it before he was alive, who hasn't thought about this heavy but powerless problem? Ada had imagined a thousand times how he would die, perhaps by illness, by accident, or preferably by old age, unconscious in his sleep.
Just today, the mystery was revealed, he was accidentally hit by a motorcycle and died, died at the age of twenty-eight, twenty-eight or nine years old is the most embarrassing age, neither the aggressiveness and passion of the early twenties, nor the qualifications and accumulation of the thirties, the career bottleneck, if the relationship has not yet settled, it will be discriminated against by the whole society, including his parents, marriage can not be married, and it is too luxurious to talk about love.....
But no matter how embarrassing it is, it's better than dead, when I was alive, I complained a lot, and after I died, I realized that as long as I was alive, it was all good!
Ada was wandering around the street bored, and if there had been no accident, he would have been working in the cubicle of his office at this time, where would he have time to spend time here? Ada has been in this city for six years, and he has never taken a good walk around, usually except for overtime, he is working overtime, although he is only twenty-eight years old, he has boiled himself like a little old man, his eyesight is getting worse and worse, his body is getting weaker and weaker, and his spine and lumbar spine are always painful. Ay!
Ada found himself unconsciously at the door of the city hospital, and he sighed and planned to go somewhere else, but saw a familiar back.
Isn't this my colleague Lao He? Lao He hurriedly ran into the hospital, this Lao He, usually likes to take advantage of others, the things in the company are often taken home, even the toilet paper in the bathroom is not let go, two years ago, he borrowed a thousand yuan from Ada, but after so a long time, Lao He was stunned and never mentioned it again, and later Ada learned that Lao He and all his colleagues had basically borrowed money, but they had not repaid, so no one dared to lend him money again, and secretly scolded him for being a magnetic rooster, not only did not pull a dime, but also sucked things from others.
Iron Rooster is a small leader, so not only did he not lose his popularity, but he seemed to be very popular, and there were not a few people who specially gave cheap money to Iron Rooster to take advantage of, and Ada often scoffed at this.
This iron rooster picks and picks, and the colleagues take advantage of it one by one, will it be this virtue to come to the hospital? Ada thought a little gloating, and involuntarily stepped out of his legs and followed the iron rooster into the hospital.
Ada entered the hospital and found that there were many people staring at him, Ada was stunned for a moment, and felt that he was not dead for a moment, and then he reacted that he was also a ghost wandering in the hospital. Ada saw his kind for the first time after his death.
Some of those of the same kind look dazed, some angry, some sad...... Ada didn't care about them anymore, and followed the iron rooster Lao He all the way to the hospital payment office.
"Can you be accommodating for a few days? I don't have that much on hand for a while. "Iron Rooster's face is full of embarrassment.
"It's like it." Iron Rooster was like this when he borrowed money from Ada.
"Next week, I'll make sure I get the money together next week!" Lao He's expression of being about to cry looked so ridiculous to Ada, "This Lao He also swore to me that he would repay the money next month, and the result was ...... There is no then. ”
"No, you've been procrastinating for months." The hospital accountant was embarrassed and said, "Our hospital has taken special care of you, for so many years, you have been paying on time and rarely in arrears, so we can accommodate your ...... for a few months."
Ada didn't finish listening to the following words of the accountant, he was a little surprised, so many years? What has been sick for so many years? Who is sick? Rarely in arrears? It's not like the style of the Iron Rooster!
Lao He is still begging bitterly, Ada originally planned to see Lao He's jokes, but at this moment, he is very sympathetic to Lao He, what has Lao He experienced?
After a while, begging to no avail, Lao He dragged his tired body to the ward with a painful face, and Ada hurriedly followed.
Ada curiously followed Lao He into a ward near the toilet, he saw Lao He change his depressed and painful expression just now, and was smiling at a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl on the hospital bed and said, "Good daughter, it will be your fourteenth birthday in a few days, tell Dad what gift you want this year." ”
"I want to go to school and be with children." The crisp voice of the little girl.
The little girl was a little abnormally fat, her hair fell out, her face was pale, Ada understood at once, he was shocked, he had been with Lao He's colleagues for several years, Lao He didn't say a word about the situation at home, and he never said anything about his daughter's illness, but he didn't expect it......
His daughter must have a very serious illness, Lao He spent all his savings to see a doctor for his daughter, no wonder he would borrow money everywhere and not pay it back, he would rather be pointed at behind his back than tell the truth, he would rather be cheeky and take advantage of the public, and would rather bear the nickname of the iron rooster......
Seeing Lao He smiling at his daughter, Ada felt very uncomfortable.
Ada saw Lao He get up and go out, Ada followed, only to see Lao He striding towards the toilet.
It turned out that he was hiding in the toilet and crying, so that a forty-year-old middle-aged man could hide in the bathroom of the hospital with his mouth covered and cry silently, it must be a great pain and despair!
Ada couldn't help but wipe away her tears, turned around and walked out of the bathroom.
"That old He is also quite pitiful," Ada said to the nurse beside him when he saw the accountant walking just now, "After my daughter got leukemia, the house was sold, the family went bankrupt, and all her savings were spent in the past few years...... Ay! I haven't paid for my medical expenses in the past few months! It's also a hard ......."
"I heard that I was still a small leader in the company." The little nurse said.
"What's the use? After all, it's a part-time job for others, even if it's a leader, there is not much salary, and one person can't stand spending money to earn money, this kid ...... Ay! I don't know how long it will last......" the accountant sighed.
The more Ada listened, the more sad he became, yes, how much money can he earn from working for others? Lao He is also oppressed by the leaders above like him, who has a better life than whom? Ada remembered that he usually looked down on Lao He who loved to take advantage of the loan and did not pay it back, so every time he saw Lao He, he did not greet or greet Lao He with a straight face, and Ada blushed as soon as he remembered that he thought he was tall. Lao He has endured so much silently, but he never mentions his suffering. It turns out that some things and some people are not as they appear on the surface.
