Chapter Seventy-Five: Memories in Pieces of Paper
Xia Qing has two offices, one outside the bedbug's office and the other outside Deputy Director Lin's office.
Originally, there was a wall between Deputy Director Lin's office and Xia Qing's office, but since Deputy Director Lin took office, this wall has been torn down and replaced with a spacious and bright glass curtain wall.
It is also interesting to say that this glass wall is not used by Deputy Director Lin to monitor his subordinates, but by Xia Qing to observe Deputy Director Lin's every move, so as to make detailed records. Even this glass curtain wall has countless round holes specially left so that the sound is not blocked.
Xia Qing still remembers the feeling after this wall was turned into a glass curtain wall, as if Deputy Director Lin sitting inside the wall was a prisoner!
Xia Qing's home is intricately decorated and the colors are complex, but Xia Qing's desk is too clean and refreshing.
In the six divisions of the business, except for scientific researchers, no one can use the computer, and even the mobile phone is put away, and it will be distributed after work, so Xia Qing's desk has nothing but a cup and a notebook.
Xia Qing couldn't be simpler than this desk, and the biggest pleasure was probably the cup of Mocha coffee provided by the Sixth Division of the Business that was of good quality.
In the kingdom of coffee, if the Blue Mountains can be king, then Mocha is definitely the queen of coffee!
Mocha coffee, the oldest coffee in the world, has the most unique, rich, and fascinating complex flavors in the world, such as red wine, wild game, dried fruit, blueberry, grape, tobacco, etc., these flavors are blended together, like a woman's mind is turned back and forth, and her heart is not as complicated as the appearance of Xia Qing, who likes to let the various flavors in the coffee roll on the tip of the tongue, so that her mood shuttles back and forth between complexity and simplicity.
But today, this cup of coffee, which is known for its complex flavor, has no taste between Xia Qing's lips and tongue, Xia Qing holds the hot air, squinting his eyes and glancing at Deputy Director Lin behind the glass curtain wall from time to time.
Deputy Director Lin's expression kept changing with the constantly turning notes in his hand, so rich that Xia Qing was ashamed of this cup of pure mocha coffee in his hand!
Finally, Xia Qing was stunned, and even forgot the cup of coffee in her hand, because she saw Deputy Director Lin suddenly burst into tears, and then jerked off the clothes on her arm, Xia Qing clearly saw that Deputy Director Lin had two big characters engraved on his arm, but as for what the words were, Xia Qing didn't have the eyesight to see clearly.
At this time, Deputy Director Lin's whole body was trembling, his expression was sad, and he almost collapsed.
When Deputy Director Lin wiped away his tears and began to read the notes in his hand again, Xia Qing retracted his slender neck, which had unconsciously straightened up, and the cup of coffee in his hand became more and more pale as water.
Calling a pervert like Deputy Director Lin to cry bitterly must be so perverted that it must be outrageous!
Xia Qing let the coffee in his hand go from piping hot to cold, and the notes on Deputy Director Lin's desk finally turned to the last one, which was the part that Xia Qing began to record.
Xia Qing's notes, every day when the record is completed, Deputy Director Lin has to look at it in person, and at the same time leave a series of words on each day's record that Xia Qing can't understand that it should be some kind of password.
Xia Qing has never had the curiosity to unlock these passwords, but after seeing Deputy Director Lin crying bitterly, Xia Qing scratched his heart and wanted to decipher it to see what the hell this Deputy Director Lin had recorded.
Deputy Director Lin closed the notes in his hand, and then looked up at Xia Qing, at this time, Deputy Director Lin's face had returned to the previous gloomy and cold, no longer the confusion and confusion that Xia Qing had seen before, or sadness and pain.
Xia Qing, who was staring at Deputy Director Lin, was shocked, and quickly withdrew his gaze, shrunk his neck, and brought the cold coffee to his lips.
When Xia Qing was worried in his heart, Deputy Director Lin had already walked out, and he didn't seem to have taken Xia Qing's previous impolite observation to heart.
"Come with me!" In the faint voice of Deputy Director Lin, who had recovered his cold and gloomy dove, Xia Qing hurriedly stood up, took the notes handed over by Deputy Director Lin, took a pen, and followed closely behind Deputy Director Lin while recording the time when Deputy Director Lin left.
Following behind Deputy Director Lin, who was thin but unusually tall, Xia Qing subconsciously looked at Deputy Director Lin's wrist, which was covered by the sleeves of his suit, and he couldn't see the words engraved on his skin.
Deputy Director Lin walked in the silent corridor, his slow and almost silent footsteps, and the unique clicking sound of Xia Qing's high heels converged one after another.
Deputy Director Lin stepped into the elevator, Xia Qing followed in, the elevator door closed with a clang, but Deputy Director Lin did not press the button on the floor, which made Xia Qing slightly stunned, glanced at Deputy Director Lin with a blank expression, and asked softly while reaching out to press the button, "How many floors are we going to?"
Deputy Director Lin did not answer, but turned his head to the metal wall on the left side of the elevator, just silent, this kind of scene is an old stalk in ghost movies, but suddenly appeared outside the TV, it still makes people feel numb in the scalp.
Xia Qing couldn't help but clench the notes on his chest, and stepped back slightly, until his back was pressed against the wall, and he was worried in his heart, is this a sign that some kind of mental illness is about to explode?
Deputy Director Lin faced the metal wall, poked his head into the wall, stared at one eye and almost stuck to the wall, and then the light in the elevator suddenly dimmed, Xia Qing was startled, and the elevator wall that originally looked mediocre and even some old suddenly showed up one by one and turned into a huge screen.
Deputy Director Lin stretched out his hand and twisted and pointed on the irregular geometric patterns, so complicated that a thoughtful woman like Xia Qing couldn't remember clearly.
Xia Qing seemed to understand what was about to happen at this time!
There are only three floors that can be seen in the elevator buttons of the six business divisions, but everyone knows that there is a mysterious negative four floors in the six business divisions.
Inside the negative fourth floor is a bronze tree, where the office of the ultimate armor annihilator is located, and there are many mysteries.
As for how to get to the negative four floors, there are many sayings, some say that there is a handle in a hidden place of the elevator, as long as you pull, the elevator will settle directly to the negative four floors, and some say that the elevator is actually operated by someone, as long as you say the command, the person who operates will directly send the elevator to the negative four floors, and some say that there is no elevator at all when entering the negative four floors, and you have to take the secret passage, and the secret passage is in a utility room in the weapon cabin.
There are all kinds of theories, and at this time, Xia Qing is almost certain that Deputy Director Lin is going to take her to the negative fourth floor!
For the God Hunter Warrior or those scientific researchers, it is definitely an exciting thing to be able to go to the negative fourth floor of the mysterious place, but for a civilian Xia Qing, the negative fourth floor is a place she never wants to set foot in.
For Xia Qing, entering the negative fourth floor means that she has come into contact with the more confidential world, and Xia Qing, who is now in charge of the key to the archives, has been tired of the trouble caused by this kind of secret, once there is something outside, even inexplicably, she will be suddenly imprisoned.
Not to mention going to the streets, even computers and mobile phones are not allowed.
Sometimes the solitary confinement is still good, but it is worse than the solitary confinement, it is suddenly protected by the bodyguards, and at this time, it means that someone may come to ask for her Xia Qing's life.
It's just a clerical job, but you have to risk your life.
It is this long-term pressure and boredom that makes Xia Qing have a preference for coffee, and when she is imprisoned, this is her only partner!
Deputy Director Lin suddenly spoke: "Tell me about your guess about me." ”
Xia Qing was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Deputy Director Lin, who had no expression on his face, and the light blue eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses could not show any emotion.
Xia Qing thought for a moment and then said, "You, are you amnesia?"
Deputy Director Lin suddenly smiled, turned his head to look at Xia Qing, and the pupils that suddenly became extremely deep made Xia Qing feel a trace of fear in his heart, that feeling, it seemed that Xia Qing and Deputy Director Lin were not the same kind at all.
Deputy Director Lin nodded, stretched out a finger, and gently tapped his head and said: "My memory stays five years ago, in the past five years, each memory can last for thirty days, and after thirty days, the memory will automatically clear once, at this time, it is all up to the notes in your hand to recover the previous memory." It's been five years, and I've been taking more and more notes, and I really don't know if I'll spend a third of my time reading notes in a few decades. Even after reading the notes once, the memory has been re-erased. For this reason, I had to do everything I could to improve my reading speed. ”
Xia Qing understood at this time, why Deputy Director Lin was turning the pages quickly when he read the information, it turned out that he had been specially trained in this area!
Xia Qing originally thought that Deputy Director Lin left a note of his behavior in order to clear himself up at a critical moment, and also made various other speculations, but now it seems that these speculations are a little ridiculous, it turns out that this note is not for others to prove himself, but for himself, to continue his memory!
Suddenly, I felt a trace of sympathy for this Deputy Director Lin.
Although Xia Qing had long speculated about Deputy Director Lin's disease, when Deputy Director Lin really admitted it to his face, Xia Qing still felt extremely surprised!
Thinking of a guy with only thirty days of memory standing beside him, relying on pieces of paper to recall the past, Xia Qing felt that this was an extremely sad thing.
Thinking of Deputy Director Lin's almost collapsed appearance of crying bitterly, in Xia Qing's opinion, it was the sadness that would only come when a loved one died and could never see each other.
If this pain was only once, it would be enough, but for Deputy Director Lin, who has to reopen his notes every month, this pain seems to have no end!
If it was Xia Qing, he would definitely tear off the page, Xia Qing didn't understand why Deputy Director Lin had to experience this sadness over and over again.
It must be because of hatred that he no longer has memories, but he forces himself to fall into this kind of pain that he can't extricate himself from forever!
No wonder Deputy Director Lin once said that he lived to remember.
Now that I think about it, this sentence is really shocking and unforgettable!
