Chapter 1: Communication Dogs
"Wait for the opening of the area meeting at half past nine, about the construction and opening of Nanjian in the last two weeks, you can sort it out and bring it to me. ”
Walking out of the subway station, Zhang Han, who had just walked to the Firebird Building, received a call from Party A's mobile administrator.
"Okay. Zhang Han answered, and after hanging up the phone, he swept around a few times in confusion.
As a communication supervisor, a communication dog, a communication Wang, a communication two-eyed ......
These words describe the communications sunset industry, and it is also appropriate to put them on him.
Ten years of youth, looking back on the past, if you say that the girl who can't forget her youth, she will tell you what is called the original beauty and what is the feeling of not being able to go back.
Then the test papers with red crosses in your youth will tell you what it means to do the same work and get the same income, and what is the inequality of life.
With a salary of less than 6K, in the international metropolis of Shenzhen, it represents a low-rent and narrow house in the suburbs, and a crowded subway for commuting.
The consumption in the city center even makes you hesitate to order a fast food takeaway, whether to order a meat today.
"Strange, why do you suddenly feel inexplicably sad when you pass by here at work these two days?"
I packed a hot dry noodle at the breakfast stall next to the Firebird Building, and I scanned the QR code on WeChat to pay for breakfast.
Zhang Han looked at the construction workers around him with breakfast, with deep doubts and a little panic in his eyes.
At this time, next to the Firebird Building is a construction site, where a new hub station is planned.
It has been several months since the construction of the construction site began.
But just three days ago, since Tuesday, Zhang Han will feel an inexplicable sadness every day when he passes by here at work, and when he crosses the street and leaves the vicinity, that feeling will disappear inexplicably.
If it weren't for the fact that April in Shenzhen had begun to enter early summer, and the sun was shining at eight o'clock in the morning, Zhang Han really thought that he had encountered some kind of supernatural event.
After a morning of precinct progress meetings.
Without a break at noon, Zhang Han first arranged and dealt with the more urgent matters in his hand, and then before three o'clock in the afternoon, he found a reason to go to the Information Building and leave the company early.
"Today is Friday, and from Tuesday onwards, every day when you commute to work or go to the Information Building, you will feel this feeling when you pass by here.
This proves that this feeling is not accidental, and the range is less than 100 meters around the green belt.
So depending on when this feeling starts to appear, Tuesday?"
"If there is any difference between Tuesday and the previous one, that is, from that day, the construction site began to cut and excavate this row of green trees. ”
Under the shade of the tree in front of the Firebird Building, Zhang Han picked up his mobile phone and pretended to be on the phone.
In an unobtrusive way, he walks back and forth in the area where sensations appear, taking in his surroundings and anomalies from time to time.
"I remember when I passed by at eight o'clock that day, two of the trees had been dug up.
The day before Tuesday, after working overtime on Monday night, this row of green trees has not yet been processed. ”
"Before the trees were cut down and excavated, I passed by here several times a day and there was no response.
And since the green tree was dug up and cut down on Tuesday, every time I pass by, there will be inexplicable sadness in my heart.
Based on chatting with colleagues in the past few days, it can be determined that they have not felt sad when they pass by.
What is this?
After more than 20 years of mediocrity, suddenly fortune was at the head, and the golden finger of the big explosion of character?
Or is it bad luck, a cross-species warning, a harbinger of some kind of calamity?"
Looking at the remaining few green trees, Zhang Han, who felt that he had discovered the truth, barely suppressed the panic and chaotic thoughts surging in his heart.
Put away the mobile phone and walk towards a worker wearing a reflective safety jacket who was sitting on the ground and resting not far away.
"Hello uncle, I want to ask, is this row of green trees ready to be dug up?"
Walking up to the middle-aged worker, Zhang Han asked politely, pointing to the row of half-dug green trees next to him as he spoke.
The worker who was sitting on the ground resting on the ground with an axe was a little tired after cutting the roots for a while in the hot weather, and when he heard someone asking, he raised his head a little impatiently and glanced at Zhang Han, and said, "Yes."
Construction is going to be carried out here, and the remaining trees are going to be dug up in the next few days, why do you ask this?"
"Isn't it curious, it feels like it's a pity that all such good trees are cut down and dug up at once. ”
"What's the pity, when the hub station here is built, you don't know how convenient it is to commute to work!"
"Yes, it's a lot more convenient, I can walk two minutes less, thank you Uncle. ”
Facing the emotional reply, Zhang Han snorted slightly embarrassed, and after saying thank you, he turned around and walked towards the few remaining green trees that had not been cut down.
"Not this one. ”
"I don't feel anything, it's not this one. ”
"It doesn't feel the same, it's not this one!"
Zhang Han walked along the side of the road with a cautious expression.
Every time I walked next to a green tree, I would stretch out my hand to touch the rough trunk, close my eyes and quietly feel the lingering sadness in my heart.
He believed that if he could feel the inexplicable sadness, then unless his guess about the green tree was wrong, if he touched it directly, he would definitely find it.
One by one, trees walked by, and in the blink of an eye, there were only two green trees left in the row that could detect the sadness in the area that had not been dug up.
Looking at the last two lush green trees, Zhang Han suddenly stopped, his expression struggling slightly.
He had a hunch that his life would change when he touched the trunk of the next tree.
Whether this change is good or bad, he doesn't know.
All he knew was that he was used to his current life.
Although banal, although numb.
But if he is suddenly given a chance to change his current life, he doesn't know if he is ready to face the unknown.
Zhang Han is no longer a stunned young man who has just graduated from society.
Several years of social experience have taught him that in the face of unknown mutations, it is not necessary to say that the bad ones are bad, and if the good ones are not prepared, they are likely to turn bad in the end.
Everyone knows the story of Hurt Zhongyong.
Not every ordinary person who wins the lottery in life is good luck.
Winning 5 million may be lucky, but if it is a billionaire jackpot all of a sudden, then he believes that most of it will end in tragedy.
"Get out of the way, be careful, the tree is about to fall!"
Just when Zhang Han hesitated and stopped, a shout suddenly came from behind him and woke him up.
I saw a green tree with the roots of the trees around it cut off and the branches sawn off, and began to fall slowly under the pull of several people with ropes.
"Bang!"
The last few thin roots at the bottom snapped and snapped, and the trees fell in response to the last thump.
Zhang Han felt that with the fall of this tree, the sadness in his heart increased a little, and at the same time, a sense of impending disaster surfaced in Zhang Han's heart.
God doesn't take it, but suffers the blame!
Looking at the fallen trees, such a sentence suddenly popped up in Zhang Han's heart.
He felt that if he stagnated any longer, he was afraid that something unexpected and bad would happen next.
"Isn't it just the fear of the unknown?
Gritting his teeth, Zhang Han turned around and took the last step forward, holding his breath intently, and his hand touched the trunk of the penultimate tree
The moment his fingers touched the trunk of the tree, the expression on Zhang Han's face suddenly became dull.
A dreamlike green light bloomed from the center of my mind......
