Chapter 261: Despair, Sinking into the Deep Sea
Everything went smoothly.
Since he took the afternoon train, it was already midnight when he arrived at Heron Island.
Outbound.
A hot breath came to my face.
Different from the dryness of Jizhou, this slightly warm and moist breath, wrapped in the lingering heat, instantly brought him to a new world, which was exceptionally fresh.
The weather is also unusually good, looking up, you can still see the starlight in the sky, feel the salty sea breeze blowing in your face, and even the original nervous heart inexplicably began to calm down.
Take a deep breath: Huh...... That's the taste of freedom!
At the bottom of my heart, a new expectation has also emerged: a new life journey is about to begin!
After stopping for a moment, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Teng Dou: I have arrived at Ludao, find a place to rest for the night first, and contact your friend tomorrow.
Tengdou did not reply.
He thought it was too late, so he found a random shop, served dinner, and stayed.
Price...... It's 150.
But in this way, the only money left by his side is only about 1,000.
He can only sigh that it is worthy of Ludao, and even the price level is much higher than that of their small city.
However, thinking that he was about to join the company and then have an income, he didn't take these things to heart, at most he was a little embarrassed before his salary.
He's not embarrassed, has he?
But he can understand.
Before coming, he did a little homework, and after learning about it, he found that Teng Dou introduced him here to pick up money:
Like he said, the market here is very hot.
Whether it's a seller's market, or a seller's market.
The house price is several times that of his city.
Even if the points are consistent, then the commission he will receive from selling a house here will be several times that of the original sale.
Tengdou didn't frame him!
The hotel was very shabby, but this night was the most restful night he had slept in months.
It wasn't until dawn that he woke up from the small, slightly cramped room.
The head is a little heavy, which should be the sequelae left by the exhaustion of the journey.
After thinking about it, he still went to the bathroom to wash his face first, and then changed into formal clothes.
Suit and leather shoes, people look like dogs.
Looking at himself in the mirror, he couldn't help but be in a trance.
He felt that all the feelings had returned...... The self who was once dominant, will definitely set off a new storm in Egret Island again!
got up, returned to the window, looked at the purple and red outside the window, took out his mobile phone, and dialed the phone that Teng Dou gave him.
"I'm sorry, the number you dialed is empty, please check before dialing."
“Sorry, the number you dialed is not available. Please……”
Tian Tian was slightly stunned, and hurriedly clicked on the message sent by Tengdou and checked the number.
"That's right, this is the ......"
I muttered in confusion every day, but how could it be an empty number?
Inexplicably, he was a little flustered and hurriedly sent a message to Teng Dou.
"Tengdou, is the number you gave me wrong, why did I dial it empty?"
Holding his phone, he suddenly felt a little uneasy...... He didn't know why he felt this way, maybe it was because of a strange city, an unfamiliar place......
In short, he couldn't say it, but in his heart, he felt inexplicably apprehensive, anxious, and even restless.
But he couldn't help it, so he could only pick up his phone from time to time and wait for Tengdou's reply.
Minutes and seconds passed.
It's just that after a long time, he didn't wait for Teng Dou's reply, and saw that the time to check out was coming.
He couldn't hold back the anxiety in his heart any longer, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed Tengdou's phone.
"Dut...... Honk...... Toot ......"
Tian Tian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, at least, Teng Dou did not shut down or shut down, which also showed that he just happened not to see his news.
"Dut...... Honk...... Toot ......"
"I'm sorry! The person you're calling is temporarily unreachable, so please call again later. ”
“Sorry! The user you dialed is currently unable to connect. Please redial later”
Hang...... Hung up.
Tian Tian looked incredulous, looking at his phone, at a loss.
"No, no......"
At this moment, he was really a little panicked, but he still tried his best to comfort himself.
"He must be in a meeting, that's why he hung up on me, after all, he is in a very awkward position there, and he doesn't dare to show that he is too close to me......"
"However, since I know it's me, I should send me the correct contact information of the other party soon."
"It must be like this."
Sitting on the edge of the bed every day, a little weak and a little dazed.
Holding the phone tightly in both hands, pick it up, put it down, pick it up again, put it down again......
"Jingle Bell ......"
A spirit, Tian Tian suddenly came back to his senses, turned around, and only then did he realize that it was the phone in the room that rang.
The sharp ringtone, like a spell, also made him fall into a deeper mania at this time...... Holding back the resentment in his heart, he picked up the phone every day.
"Hey."
"Boss."
On the other end of the phone, it was Ludao dialect with a thick Hokkien accent.
"Your check-out time is approaching, and I would like to ask, do you still need to extend your stay?" If you don't stay, hurry up and check out. ”
"Got it."
With a sound in his throat, he hung up the phone suddenly, and then leaned back and collapsed on the bed.
He didn't know why he was so irritable:
It is probably the day of this Egret Island, the kind of stickiness with a salty smell, which makes him from Jizhou a little uncomfortable.
Raising the phone, Teng Dou still didn't reply, not only the phone, but not even the message.
He couldn't help but get more and more agitated...... There was a bad premonition that began to grow in his heart.
Despite his struggle to dispel the negative thoughts, he ......
Shaking his head, he raised his phone again and dialed Tengdou's number.
There was no waiting.
The cold sound of machinery sounded mercilessly.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unreachable, please dial again later"
“Sorry! The user you dialed is……”
It's still the same tone, only this time, there's not even a connection prompt......
"It doesn't make sense, could it be that the customer called, so we talked for so long......"
Every day with a puzzled face, although the intermediary industry does have a long time of telephone communication with customers, but ......
He looked up and looked at the clock on the wall.
It's been almost an hour since he last called Tengdou, and since he was able to hang up his phone, he should be able to see the messages he sent......
That......
A bad premonition suddenly sprouted in my heart.
The heart sank, as if sinking into the deep sea, despair, and suffocation.
