Xu was because of the reason why he fainted before, and Wan Hongzhuang found that he couldn't sleep.

Indeed, the appearance of Wang Fatzi brought him a great impact, which made him a little relieved until now.

"So...... Is all the problem because of that dream? ”

He took out his mobile phone blankly and looked at the time, seven o'clock in the evening...... It's probably the busiest time in the store, right? I don't know if those half-baked chefs are busy coming over after leaving me.

Immediately, he shook his head helplessly, "It's also cheap, I don't know how long I haven't rested, and I'm still thinking about it here, are you really not turning around when the world leaves you?" ”

After thinking about it, he still clicked on his chat history with Wang Fatzi again.

First of all, the circle of friends:

Like most people, Wang Fatzi doesn't like to post on Moments, but the photos that were originally left in his memory, including those photos of him working on the construction site, can't be found.

Was it deleted? Or does it not exist at all?

Wan Hongzhuang's heart couldn't help but start to feel apprehensive, everything in front of him was too unusual, so unconventional that even he was a little difficult to accept.

The circle of friends can be grouped and deleted, but the chat history is always not good...... Thinking about it, he clicked on the chat history of the two again.

Only then did he realize that the chat records of the two were far more than he remembered: Xu was because of the current "him", who embarked on a new life trajectory, and was far more positive, optimistic, and confident than the one in his memory.

Therefore, in this "new" chat log, the two often share some interesting things about each other's lives.

There are no loans or transfers, but Wang Fatzi will send him some red envelopes at every turn, but the amount is not very large......

Wan Hongzhuang felt the chaos in his brain...... Facts speak louder than words, and he was undoubtedly more shocked.

In particular, the dream was so real that it made him wonder what was wrong.

"So, is it that dream?"

Wan Hongzhuang couldn't help but ask himself again. He couldn't remember how many times he repeated this sentence today.

Thinking of this, he suddenly couldn't suppress the urgency in his heart, endured the pain all over his body, straightened up, and found a book and a pen in the bedside table next to him...... He needed to keep track of the little things that happened in his memory, especially on Heron Island, so that he could confirm if reality would change because of the dream.

Soon after, he was in a daze again, and for a long time he couldn't think of anything worth documenting.

- What kind of secrets are hidden in these lost memories, and what kind of unbearable past he has, even he is a little afraid to mention it.

He was sure that he would still encounter such dreams...... It's just that the question now is, what is the trigger for these dreams?

In his memory, everything that happened yesterday was so ordinary, and there seemed to be no connection with his pale past.

"Is it Xiaoxue?"

Wan Hongzhuang fell into deep thought.

Yesterday was the first time he met Xiaoxue, and then so many thrilling things happened...... The most important thing is the inexplicable familiarity that Xiaoxue brought him, and he always felt as if they had seen it somewhere......

Maybe...... Is that the hotel?

Wan Hongzhuang thought of the dilapidated room, the old air conditioner that whined, and the two old bedding that smelled musty...... No matter how you look at it, it doesn't feel like a place where you can trigger memories.

"So, maybe it's because of the superposition of the two, the effect of the two?"

It's also possible, but everything is just his conjecture after all.

Suddenly there was an urgency in his heart: he was leaving, he was going back to that hotel, that room, to verify that it was all as he thought!

Thinking of this, he couldn't stay any longer!

Hurriedly struggled to stand up, didn't even bother to take off the hospital gown on his body, put on the coat that was randomly piled aside, and ran out of the ward without looking back.

"Sir! Mr! ”

The nurse who passed by noticed the abnormality and hurriedly chased after her...... But she is a girl's family, how can she not catch up with Wan Hongzhuang, who has already let go of her mind at this moment!

- He really felt like he was flying!

Although the outside of the house was already covered with snow, and the ground was already covered with thick snow, none of this could stop him!

With the unbridled gallop, countless street scenes flew by like marquees, and the cold wind mixed with large snowflakes hit him fiercely......

"Wait for me!"

The endless wind and dust were thrown behind him fiercely, the unbearable past, the yearning that was difficult to give up, or ...... Memories that have been quietly sealed.

At this moment, none of it matters.

……

Panting violently, Wan Hongzhuang appeared at the door of the dilapidated hotel again.

It's just that the scene in front of him is not at all what he thought before.

The colorful neon lights did not light up with the fall of night, and the original clear handwriting began to blur after traversing the weathered blackboard, and if you didn't get closer, you couldn't even see what was written on it.

"Haven't you opened yet?"

Wan Hongzhuang stood at the door dejectedly, looking at everything in front of him in a daze, and a sense of frustration emerged from the bottom of his heart for no reason...... The frustration of having his plan completely disrupted made him tremble all over!

No, it's not closed.

At least there was still a small crack in the door of the hotel, and from the crack in the door, there was still a faint light shining through......

Hope began to sprout in Wan Hongzhuang's heart, like a drowning man grasping a life-saving straw.

Although he is not doing very badly now, who is willing to miss this opportunity to change his fate?

With 100,000 degrees of caution, Wan Hongzhuang cautiously pushed open the creaking door and walked in.

In the room, only a dim light is still on, and from time to time it flickers strangely due to the unstable current......

The front desk is still the same front desk, but it seems to have decayed a little bit for no reason just one night...... It's like you're about to step into history, turn to dust, and be abandoned by time!

Everything in front of him instantly made Wan Hongzhuang feel inexplicably panicked, he didn't know what had happened here in the day he left?

"Uh......"

Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out from behind the counter.

Then a fluffy white hair slowly poked out from behind the counter, and asked in a strange tone, "Young man, ...... Are you here? ”

It was the old lady who sat at the counter last night, but at this time her face was full of depression, and her godless eyes seemed to have lost all expectations.

Defeated!

Wan Hongzhuang couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, but still nodded, "Auntie, I'm here." ”

Hearing Wan Hongzhuang's voice, a strange look suddenly appeared on the old lady's face, and her eyes began to glow.

Then she stood up tremblingly, but when she saw Wan Hongzhuang's embarrassed face and the gauze tightly wrapped around her head, she couldn't help laughing, pointed at him and said, "What? Went out and got into a fight with someone? I saw you well in the morning, why did you make this appearance after a day? ”

Wan Hongzhuang touched his head embarrassedly, "Careless, careless." ”

The old lady smiled and shook her head, at this moment, her face was full of kindness, staring deeply at Wan Hongzhuang, and she didn't speak for a long time.

This inexplicable warmth instantly made Wan Hongzhuang feel uncomfortable, and asked timidly: "Auntie, auntie, what's wrong with you?" ”

With that, he raised his hand and shook it in front of her eyes.

The old lady came back to her senses from her endless reverie, "By the way, what about the little girl?" ”

"She, she's not off work yet." Wan Hongzhuang replied in a whisper.

Somehow, hearing this old lady mention Xiaoxue's name still makes him feel inexplicably empty.

Maybe it's because of a series of things that happened last night, and all the ...... that happened today. He always felt that there seemed to be a mysterious aura on Xiaoxue's body, and he was a little unpredictable.

"Quarrel again?"

The old lady's face revealed a little playfulness, "If you want me to say you young people, that's it, one second it was as if it was mixed with oil in honey, and the next second, it started to quarrel again, cold war." ”

After saying this, she seemed to be a little struggling, and after a pause, she emphasized, "Cherish the time together!" ”

Wan Hongzhuang was silent, he didn't know how to respond to what the old lady said, he always felt that the old lady today was a little weird, and what she said seemed to mean something.

After thinking about it, he decided to switch the tempo of the topic.

"Auntie, when I came over today, why did I see that the lights outside were dim, what's wrong?" Wan Hongzhuang asked curiously.

"Oh, you said the lamp,......" the old lady muttered, and then her lips trembled slightly, but her eyes became darker and darker, "Today, the store is closed." ”

"Closed!"

Wan Hongzhuang's eyes violently turbulent, this was an answer he couldn't have imagined.

He hurriedly stepped forward, lay down on the counter, and asked in a low voice, "Why is it not open?" ”

All the presuppositions were shattered in an instant at this moment, his intentions, his assumptions, all his attempts to change the present, because this sentence was not open, and instantly collapsed in the snow.

Wan Hongzhuang's face was full of disappointment, but he still struggled to straighten up, looked at the old lady, and muttered, "Why, why is it closed!" ”

The old lady's face was also filled with a little sadness, "Child, Auntie's age is not young. ”

Her eyes were full of remembrance.

"From the first day of opening to now, more than 30 years have passed unconsciously. By now, my aunt has gradually become a little unable to do anything. ”

"Why can't you do it, you, you can hire a waiter, you don't have to do everything yourself."

The aunt looked at him kindly, "Waiter, you say, how much salary should I pay her?" ”

"As of yesterday, this hotel has only occupied the two of you in this month...... How long can I sustain myself at this price? ”

"Of course, it's not about the cost...... It's just that the mission of this store has really come to an end today. ”

"I stood in the corner of the city, and for 30 years, I watched countless young people come with joy and leave with great disappointment...... I want to use the low price to leave a few people for the city. ”

"But there are fewer and fewer people looking at it...... I'm tired too. ”

There was no emotion on the old lady's face, as if she were a bystander, telling the city's past.

Perhaps, at this time, she is really tired.
