In summer, the sky is clear and the sun is shining, and Xing Sang sits in a bamboo chair, with the vines above his head just in the shade.

She picked up the grapes from the fruit bowl on the coffee table on her left-hand side, put them in her mouth, and took a bite of the sweet, sour, and juicy.

The radio was babbling to her favorite Miss Hu Die's songs.

"It's really pleasant to live like this. Xing Sang said to himself with a smile, closing his eyes and dozing off.

As if he had slept soundly, he actually dreamed that Xing Sang was walking on a country road.

Suddenly, a local dog pounced on her from behind, the yellow and thin kind, and bit her sleeve and did not let go.

Xing Sang shook off its mouth vigorously, and it let out a whining roar from time to time.

She shouted, "You stinky dog!

"Seventh brother, seventh brother!" the dog's mouth came out of his mouth.

Xing Sang shouted disdainfully: "You monster, hurry up!"

"Seventh brother, wake up, wake up!" Xing Sang realized that this was not a dream, and someone was really shaking her.

This man is none other than the weekend.

Xing Sang rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked, "Weekend." How did you become a dog? Or that kind of dirt dog?"

When he heard this, he said angrily, "Who is the dog?"

"Seventh brother, are you sleeping!"

Xing Sang looked around, it was still a sunny day, but there were withered vines above her head, and the sun made her dizzy.

It's still a bamboo chair, but it's a bench, it's still a fruit bowl, but it's a stone.

"My vines, my bamboo chairs, my fruit bowls, my grapes, my Miss Hu Die!" Xing Sang stopped working, she cried out.

It's unbelievable on the weekend, what did this seventh brother dream about?

By the time Xing Sang returned to the Han Mansion, it was already hazy moonlight, and Han Yin had prepared a delicious meal.

"Welcome back, little Sangsan. Han Yin stood at the gate of the first floor like a wife waiting for her husband to come home, and smiled.

Xing Sang replied, "Oh." ”

Han Yin was surprised to see the weekend following her, and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Weekend shrugged his shoulders and said, "Today is just going to an old mansion to get rid of a demon that harms people's lives. ”

"It is estimated that the seventh brother was careless for a while, fell into the demonic spirit of the demon and had a sweet dream, but when he woke up from the dream, it became this frost and hit the eggplant. ”

Han Yin looked at Xing Sang, who was sitting on the sofa in a daze, and said with a smile to the weekend: "She can be confused by the demonic aura of the demon demon!

"It must be a dream that she deliberately entered, thinking of her Miss Hu Die!"

"It's a pity, fly away!"

Xing Sang glanced back at Han Yin and said, "Hmph, the vicious uncle who destroyed the child's innocence and happiness!"

Han Yin burst out laughing and said, "Poof, you are still a child, old man, you are expensive this year, you are more than a few thousand years old!"

Weekend walked to the table and said excitedly: "Brother Qi, it's all your favorite food, cucumber and shrimp, sweet and sour pork ribs, seafood gnocchi soup and rice." ”

When Xing Sang heard this, he stood up and raised his head and said, "Since you have worked hard, I will eat it reluctantly." ”

"I'm starving!"

Han Yin and Zhou Zhou looked at Xing Sang, who was in a hurry to pick up rice, looked at each other and smiled, and also sat down.

"Is there a case today?" Xing Sang asked, picking up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and putting it in a bowl.

Han Yin said: "In the evening, Lang Xi came and said that there was no case today. ”

"There's one thing I need your help with, though. ”

Xing Sang paused and said, "Even if you say that, why are you so polite?"

Han Yin thought about it, glanced at the weekend again and said, "This person's name is Zhou Chang." ”

"He was a murderer, but he was spared the death penalty because of mental illness. ”

Xing Sang nodded and asked, "You, you want me to execute him?"

Han Yin Zhengse said: "Yes." ”

"You are the master of the distant mountains, the ruler of the mansion, the day judges the yang, and the night breaks the yin. ”

"How can such wicked people stay in this world!"

Xing Sang said: "Okay. ”

Han Yin continued: "Huahai City Mental Rehabilitation Center for Serious Criminals, Room 211 on the second floor. ”

Xing Sang didn't continue to speak, and the weekend understood that sometimes, killing to stop killing is the real way.

The next day, Xing Sang came to the rehabilitation center alone as Han Yin had mentioned.

Prisoners who have been convicted of serious mental illness are held here.

Some of them will stay here for the rest of their lives, and some of them will be sentenced to death immediately if they are found to be faking mental illness.

Of course, there are also people like Zhou Chang who escaped the catastrophe, but in the way of heaven, he can't escape after all!

Xing Sang came to the second floor, and Zhou Chang was in room 211 on this floor.

She pushed open the door and saw Zhou Chang sitting on the edge of the bed, gulping down a zongzi with three beside him.

Hearing Xing Sang walk in, he turned around, grinned grinning, and said, "You come to listen to my story." ”

"Yes. Xing Sang said expressionlessly.

Zhou Chang stopped chewing, rolled his eyes, and said, "There is something terrible in your eyes. ”

Xing Sang just pulled over a chair, sat down, and asked, "Why do you like to eat zongzi?"

Zhou Chang put the zongzi on the top of the cupboard next to the bed and said, "Because, the meat inside is fragrant." ”

"Also, I like to listen to the sound of ground meat, and I like the feeling of the minced meat crossing my fingers when making zongzi. ”

"Only then can I feel that I am alive. ”

"You don't know, 10 hours a day, I keep repeating an action, and I often see my soul leave my body. ”

"I could see myself and others working numbly. ”

"Yes, numb. ”

"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all...... Zhou Chang's eyes became hollow.

He seemed to recall, looked ahead, and saw himself making zongzi again.

"Meitian Food Company is committed to making food that people can eat with peace of mind!" "The general manager on the podium read the speech impassionedly.

Zhou Chang felt so far away that the spitting stars could be sprayed on his face.

The two-hour convention, which has been going on for three hours, honors those who smuggle and warns those who steal chickens and dogs.

In Zhou Chang's opinion, it has nothing to do with him, he is such a useless person.

What he cares about is that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, but the company won't let him go home.

My wife, children and parents, who have not seen each other for three years, wonder if I will be disappointed when I hear the news this year.

Thinking about it, the conference was over, Zhao Ashun copied his pocket and walked to Zhou Chang.

He sighed and said, "Brother Chang, I can't go home this year, have you written a letter to my family?"

"Not yet, I don't want to write. Zhou Chang looked to the north of the factory, which was across the sea.

"We've been here for 4 years. ”

"I always want to get ahead, but. Zhao Ashun's words were not finished.

"Don't talk about it, I have to rush to make zongzi at night. Let's go. Zhou Chang stopped Zhao Ashun's words and walked forward quickly.

After dinner, 60 workers made zongzi on the wrapping workbench.

Zhou Chang quickly picked up the dumpling leaf on his left hand, stuffed the glutinous rice and meat filling in front of him into the dumpling leaf, and then tied it with a cotton rope.

The whole process came down, only 5 seconds, and 60 workers kept repeating the action of making zongzi.

The numb and mechanical expression on Zhou Chang's face was like one of sixty repetitive drawings in the spacious workshop of the bright hall.

Just an hour later, more than 30,000 zongzi had been formed.

When the clock rang for the stoppage, sixty people immediately stopped what they were doing and stood upright.

Several overseers came over from all over to check if they had cut corners.

After confirming that there was no waste on the workbench in the entire workshop, the workers were inspected before leaving the workshop one after another.

Zhou Chang still stood in place, not moving, and his ears were filled with the sound of the machine operating.

The zongzi are sent into the packing room, and the workers inside pack them directly and throw them into cardboard boxes.

Tomorrow, department stores, major restaurants, and dim sum shops will sell their own wrapped zongzi.

However, Zhou Chang did not have any sense of accomplishment at all, he only felt the repetition and numbness of daily life.

"Let's go. Zhao Ashun walked over and pulled him out of the workshop.

The night outside is particularly beautiful, and the stars are scattered like diamonds in the deep blue night sky.

The breeze blows the smell of the sea, and in the north of the factory, you can also see the fishing fire.

At the beginning, Zhou Chang and his fellow villager Zhao Ah Shun came to Victoria Harbour in Huahai City from Lechuan to work.

The men of the village all went to the south to make a living, some went to Yuezhou, and some went to Buwan.

Zhou Chang and they came to Victoria Harbour in Huahai City, and heard that the food companies here can make a lot of money, and they can take care of food and housing.

The two signed a contract with the food company as soon as their brains were hot, but this sign was five years, and they couldn't go home.

Such an inhumane contract once caused a stir among other workers.

However, no one dared to make trouble anymore after more than a dozen troublemakers, the dead, the wounded, and those who resigned.

"Did you say they all committed suicide?" Zhou Chang said, thinking about the past.

"Who knew that there were more than 20,000 workers in such a large factory. ”

"Die one or two, who cares. Zhao Ashun said casually.

Zhou often felt a kind of pressure in the air he breathed, pressing on his nerves.

The next day was still mechanical and repetitive work, and on a few occasions he even felt his soul float out.

He stood in mid-air and looked at himself, and the other workers were expressionless about making zongzi.

At lunchtime, each person is served with three dishes and one soup.

"Brother Chang, I inquired about the news of the secret recipe. Zhao Ashun whispered.

"What secret recipe?" Zhou Chang asked.

"Seasoning of zongzi filling. Zhao Ashun said with a smile.

"What do you want to do?" Zhou Chang wondered.

"Brother Chang, do you want to stay in this place like hell for the rest of your life!"

"Look at how we keep making zongzi every day, repeating one thing, people will go crazy!"

"When we got the secret recipe, we quit our jobs. Zhao Ashun said.

Zhou Chang didn't listen to all the words that followed, except for the sentence that people will go crazy, which has been wandering in his mind.

Three days later, the night shift ended, and two people walked in from the door of the workshop.

Zhou Chang, who was sitting behind the meat grinder resting, heard the voice, and poked his head out to see that it was the overseers Lao Feng and Zhao Ashun.

"Brother Feng!" Zhao Ashun nodded and handed Lao Feng a cigarette.

"Hmm. Lao Feng smoked a cigarette, glanced at Zhao Ashun and responded with satisfaction.

"I said Ah Shun, it's not easy for me to do things like this. ”

"Brother Feng, Brother Feng, Ali agreed, you and her are in love, and I intend to match. Zhao Ashun said with a smile.

Zhou often heard Ali's name, which was Zhao Ashun's girlfriend in Huahai City.

"It's not that important. ”

"Of course, if you take it out, I will also do a good deed for you, so that you can do a small business. Lao Feng took the last puff of his cigarette and said.

"Yes, yes. Zhao Ashun nodded.

Lao Feng threw Zhao Ashun a few pieces of paper and left the workshop.

"Ali, you can be wronged. Zhao Xiao climbed the escalator up to the mouth of the meat grinder and muttered to himself.

But as soon as the words fell, I saw that Zhao Ashun didn't hold on to him and fell into the meat grinder.

Zhou Chang was startled, and quickly ran out and climbed onto the meat grinder.

However, everything in front of him made Zhou Chang completely stunned.

Zhao Ashun was impartially cut off by the big blade of the meat grinder.

The expression on his face was still horrified, but his head had rolled to the side.

Zhou Chang suddenly stepped off the meat grinder, came to the freezer of the workshop, and moved out pieces of raw meat.

Keep throwing it into the meat grinder, and just like that, keep and on, repeating the action of throwing the meat.

It wasn't until Zhao Ashun's body was completely covered that he left the workshop.

When the work started in the morning, the general manager also praised the workers who threw the meat into the meat grinder in advance.

Throwing raw meat pieces into the meat grinder before the start of work every day is something that every worker can do in order to ensure that the products are made and sold in a timely manner.

The huge sound of grinding meat began to sound, and Zhou Chang was extremely excited.

He seemed to be watching Zhao Peng Ashun's meat puree flow down the meat grinder's meat outlet into the big basin.

When the large basin of meat filling followed the conveyor belt to him, Zhou Chang wrapped the zongzi faster.

He was close to madness, he smiled silently, and quickly wrapped the zongzi, he felt that Zhao Ashun's meat was extremely delicate.

In this way, a month later, no one has found out that Zhao Ashun is missing.

Yes, more than 20,000 workers, who cares?

Zhou often smoked cigarettes and supervised the work beside the workers, but he was not happy in his heart.

Today's meat filling is Lao Feng's meat, and it doesn't look like his meat is delicate.

"Is it delicious?" Xing Sang pointed to the zongzi in Zhou Chang's hand and asked.

"Good, delicious, very fragrant. He said wolfing.

"Wouldn't it be more delicious if you wrapped the zongzi with your own meat?" Xing Sang stood up, walked slowly out the door, and said softly.

Zhou Chang looked at the zongzi in his hand, put it on the cabinet again, and walked around the room.

Suddenly he stopped, the light bulb above his head was too dazzling, he wanted to break it and use it to wrap zongzi!

On the streets, where traffic shuttles and people come and go, there are many people who live just for a meal and clothing.
