Chapter 16: The Thief of Time
Muli is an autonomous province of ethnic minorities, and it has always been a place for white-collar workers and wealthy people to find their souls. Poor people are not confused, I have known it for a long time, but I still wish I could lose my soul in the future.
If I say it, the work that collects money will be completed no matter what, and although Muli is a mountainous area, tourism is so developed, it will not be so dangerous. At the end of the day, I'm just a high-end escort.
I was quite relieved to think of this, and in order to show my ability to work, I immediately rented a car, prepared the water, and did some geographical research along the way. Su said that the point of the murderous relic is a straight line, so as long as you drive in that direction, if that person doesn't move, you will definitely bump into this person one day in the future. Of course, the road won't be that built, so we'll definitely have to take some detours. People are bound to move, too, so they have to correct their direction every day.
Rich and rich, all let people send cars to the door, Su was in a daze at the map, I took the opportunity to go to the top floor, the top floor is called the landlord field, all the landlords live, my landlord is a biology teacher in his 30s. He took a deep breath and knocked on her door.
I was a scumbag since I was a child, and my fear of teachers and my fear of landlords because of repeated rent arrears over the years made my throat dry. Of course, there were deeper reasons for my discomfort.
The door was quickly opened, and her boyfriend was wearing a vest and opened a crack in the door and looked at me.
"What for?" He asked. When he saw that it was me, he paused for a moment: "Aren't you dead?" I haven't seen anyone for half a year. ”
"My rent for the first half of the year is paid, and it is my freedom to be empty, and I want to pay this year's rent first." I'm a little short of breath. Through her boyfriend's shoulder, I could see a white thigh moving on the bed in the back, and the landlady also got off the bed in a vest, she put on a pair of sweatpants and shouted, "Yo, it's hard for you to come up and pay the rent." ”
My heart twitched.
Her boyfriend saw the change in my expression and laughed playfully: "He said he had sex for a year." What, got rich?"
My monthly rent was 170, I counted it, and it was less than 2,005, and her boyfriend came to pick it up, but I didn't give it, because I knew her boyfriend was not a good bird. Because there is a shop left by my father in the aquatic market, I usually don't do anything to eat shop rent, and I can also buy a car to pick up girls.
The landlady opened all the doors, and her boyfriend went in and started playing the electric game, which I rented to her at the beginning of last year. At that time, she and I were still boyfriend and girlfriend, playing electric together on this couch.
We looked at each other at the door, and she took the money and sneered, "I thought you were finally in jail." ”
"I've got a regular job." I panicked, but it wasn't, and I couldn't define what I was doing now.
She took out the receipt from the basin that was placed next to the door and counted the money, since she talked about this boyfriend, in fact, she was not so diligent in collecting rent, because this man's income was enough to support her to do a lot of things, so she gradually didn't care too much about these small money. I think back then, the two of us were still familiar with each other because of the rent you came and went.
I don't know if this man is suitable for her, I always feel that I am much better than this man, that is a second ancestor, and I don't have much ability, but now it seems that she is indeed much easier with him than when she was with me.
After taking the receipt, she closed the door directly, and I heard her say inside: go for a drink in the evening.
I bit my lower lip, looked down and took out my phone, and made a call to my brother, who was about to graduate from college in Beijing. I told him a rough idea of what had happened. He returned to his room and looked around again.
Sue didn't plan to take all the money with her, and I knew that the money was behind the bookshelf, and I couldn't help but feel a little worried. But when you think about it, I'm notoriously poor in the building, and it's unlikely that anyone will be eyeing my house. But just in case, after Su and I waited for the car to come, Su drove and went to the street to buy some clothes and things, Su bought me a kidney 5, bought 6s for himself, and bought a reinforced lock. When I came back, I heard a cat meow. The cat appeared in my field of vision the day before yesterday, and I guess I was frightened these days, and I don't know where to hide.
Sue scooped up the cat, we brought some cash, locked the door, and when we got in the car, it was already past 3 pm.
Follow Kidney 5's navigation and drive into the woods. On the way, I remembered something and asked Su, "No, our agreement at that time was not this." ”
"You say." Sue said. I said, "Why did you keep asking me about the time in the beginning?" What are the watches and clocks in your basement used for? ”
Su was silent for a moment, smoked a cigarette I had prepared for myself, shook out a box, and took out a cigarette and lit it. "Have you ever felt that in your life, there are times when the day goes by very quickly, and sometimes the day passes very slowly."
Of course, I know that this is because everyone's state of mind is different every day, and if a person does a lot of things in a year, he will always feel that he will not be able to spend the whole year. If he does almost nothing in a year, he will feel the same way, but if he keeps doing something that is not in a hurry and does not hurry up for a year, because people do not repeat the memory of similar days, so it will feel like time flies.
"Not really." Su said: "People have the ability to judge the distance absolutely, but few people can judge the time absolutely, if there is no clock, everyone can only judge the time in sunrise and sunset, when a person is locked in absolute darkness, he will soon lose the sense of time, if you reduce an hour every day, he will not find that his day is less." ”
I admit this, Sue continued, "The time of this world is being stolen in this way. Every day, we have less time. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, how is this possible?" I laughed, this is almost the second grade, the teacher said, time is like cleavage, you have to squeeze it out always out.
Sue glanced at me: "I have evidence to prove this, those clocks are the experiments I did when I got the evidence." As soon as he said this, the kitten nested in the back seat suddenly barked, stood up, and looked vigilantly at the side of the car window. I turned to look in the rearview mirror and saw a shadow on the road behind me, and immediately turned my head to look at the sky, and through the side window, I saw an eagle gliding above the right rear of the car.
