Chapter 65: The Mermaid in the Bathroom

Shang Lu twisted the key and pushed the door open, and the wind swept the rain and poured in, mixed with the trembling voices of the two people:

"Hurry up, hurry up...... Dead cold. โ€

"I'm soaking wet all over my day, and there's no one else in your house? Where's your roommate? โ€

"He's on a business trip today, and I don't know where to go, so I shouldn't be able to come back for a while."

Tap ...... Feet hurt! โ€

Shang Lu helped Shen Jiang into the room and asked her to sit down on the chair, neither of them spoke, took off their coats, and the dripping rain fell on the wooden floor.

The umbrella was blown to the bottom of the cliff by the strong wind, and it was impossible to pick it up for a while, and there was no place to shelter from the rain on the mountain road.

Shen Jiang stared at him with a suspicious gaze for a few moments, then nodded.

There is no one else in the dormitory, Chen Yu is on a business trip, and he may not be able to come back tonight, Shang Lu took off his wet coat and threw it into the laundry tub, then grabbed a towel and went into the bathroom to dry his face and hair, and washed his hands again, facing the mirror Shang Lu could see Shen Jiang outside the door, the latter was sitting on a chair and taking off her shoes, she took off her shoes and socks to reveal her white bare feet, as well as the swollen ankles.

The girl pressed her ankles very intently and slowly moved her ankles, she lowered her head, her movements were slow, her short hair soaked by the rain stuck to her forehead and behind her ears, the cold rain seemed to extinguish her arrogance, and the flame that had been burning was soaked in the water and then fished up, and she became a thin and cold girl, even a little weak.

To be honest, this atmosphere is a bit ambiguous, like Wong Kar-wai's movie, where the actor and actress don't look at each other, but they are always firmly framed by a shot.

Shang Lu threw her a clean dry towel:

"Leader, you have to wipe the rain clean, otherwise you will catch a cold."

Shen Jiang turned his head to look around:

"Do you have any clothes here to change?"

"It's only mine, and there's Chen Yu's." Shang Lu said, "Do you mind wearing our clothes?" Why don't you make a call and ask them to send their clothes? โ€

Shen Jiang shook his head:

"I need to take a shower."

"You can use the bathroom." Shang Lu said, "There is hot water in the thermos, but do you really want to take a bath here, leader?" After all, it's in the boys' dormitory......"

"Do you mind?" Shen Jiang asked.

"I think you might mind." Shang Lu said, "And you don't have any clothes to change." โ€

"It doesn't matter." Shen Jiang shrugged, "In this era, who cares about these things?" โ€

Shang Lu helped bring two hot water bottles and fetched a pot of water to boil, Shen Jiang limped into the bathroom with his hands against the wall, and locked the door with his backhand - before she locked the door, Shang Lu didn't forget to mutter, if you find any suspicious toilet paper in the bathroom, first, don't touch it, and second, it's dried by Chen Yu.

This amused the girl and sneered.

Shang Lu took advantage of the opportunity of her bathing in the bathroom to change her clothes, took off all the wet clothes on her body and stuffed them into the laundry tub, then scooped a spoonful of laundry detergent and soaked it, and then made a phone call to the special medical team of the giant machine driver, and asked them to help send a set of clean clothes over - Shang Lu didn't expect that this time he almost stabbed the hornet's nest, and the other end of the phone repeatedly confirmed in an incredible tone that Shen Jiang was taking a bath in Shang Lu's dormitory, and the tone was more and more excited, and the other party's high enthusiasm was confusing. After hanging up the phone, the person who delivered the clothes came to the door, and Shang Lu was sitting in the corridor at the door of the house to rub his clothes, and saw a row of people in black raincoats sneaking into the yard on bicycles from a distance.

Shang Lu was stunned for a moment, and said that it would take so many people to send a set of clothes? Are you here to deliver spacesuits?

The medical staff crept up the stairs in groups, handed the clean clothes wrapped in plastic bags to Shang Lu, and the men and women gathered around the door, looking at Shang Lu and the closed door of the bathroom with very ambiguous eyes, taking turns to look up and down, and the eyes were clearly saying: Dude, you can do it.

Get.

These bastards.

It's hard to say whether they were warriors who subdued the lion and tiger in the Colosseum or gorillas who were looking at the mutated gorillas in the zoo, it was obvious that Shen Jiang was not a normal person in the eyes of the medical team, and Shang Lu was not a normal person now.

"What's going on?" Shin Kang asked inside.

"I brought you clothes." Shang Lu watched the mighty bicycle team leave the courtyard, "When they see you here, maybe they will spread something nonsense." โ€

With a "click", the door of the bathroom was opened, and a white and slender arm came out of the air, and the skin was not dried with water, like a new shoot drawn from the flesh and bones.

"Give me the clothes."

Shang Lu thought to himself that the shot of this moment had to be frozen, filmed and hung on the wall, bathed in the moonlight, because even Wong Kar-wai's movies could not be found, it was so fragile and so beautiful. In this era, there is no worldly gaze, there is no need for ceremonial traditions, men and women no longer need a reason to fall in love, he suddenly wishes he could see such a scene every day, there is an elusive mermaid hiding in the bathroom, she may or may not exist, when the door moves open by itself, you will see the soft limbs like willow branches in spring stretch and bloom, if you don't touch her, she doesn't exist, if you touch her, she will belong to you.

The ghost sent the gods, Shang Lu wanted to ask her if she would like to live here - but he knew that it was impossible, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful, regretting that the roommate was not a mermaid but Chen Yu, if the staff officer stretched out his hand from the bathroom, it must be without paper.

Chen Yu sneezed.

The rain poured down on the windshield of the car, and the two thin wipers were like two fragile arms, in vain trying to repair the holes in the sky.

"Do you want to change me?" The staff officer of the Operations Section, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked.

"No, you don't."

Chen Yu shook his head, clenched the steering wheel in his hand, stepped on the accelerator to the end to drive the broken Toyota under his ass to break through the wind and rain, and ran wildly on the avenue against the bad weather, they had been driving for three hours, starting from the 151 base, driving all the way to the northeast along the Shanghai-Chongqing Expressway, heading to Dianjiang County - this is the so-called business trip of the staff officer, Shang Lu thought he was going to the city, in fact, Chen Yu's task was much more dangerous than Shang Lu imagined.

After discovering the strange black line on the remote sensing photo, the base headquarters immediately decided to send people to conduct on-the-spot reconnaissance, and Chen Yu took the initiative to ask Ying to lead the team out, pulled a colleague from the operations section and two staff officers from the intelligence section, and a group of four people asked the base car company for a broken Toyota filled with liquefied natural gas, and set off in the heavy rain.

"I miss the cars that used to burn gas." The staff officer, who was sitting in the back seat, said, "The gas-burning car is limp and sluggish. โ€

"Where are you going to get so much gasoline now?" "You should be glad that there is still natural gas to burn, and in a few years, you may have to burn coal." โ€

"It may end up being firewood." Someone said, "Think about it, a huge firewood machine has to be lived in by a class of people to add fire to the stove." โ€

The people in the carriage laughed lowly.
