Chapter 40: The Day of the Dead?

Xu Sinian was getting into the car and suddenly stopped, and his eyes were drawn back to the back of Dr. Zhang Hua.

The long street is full of pedestrians, submerging the high-rise commercial buildings, and the rows of shop billboards reflect the dazzling sunlight.

Xu Sinian retracted his gaze and said into the satellite phone, "Okay, I know, hard work." ”

The phone hung up, and Xu Sinian sat down again, looking thoughtful.

"What's wrong?" Lin Xian asked.

"There's a strange feeling that I can't put it into words." Xu Sinian glanced at the direction where Dr. Zhang Hua left, "The ones he is holding are all sacrifices for his family." ”

"Sacrificial offerings? Someone in his family died? Lin Xian asked.

"Yes, and everyone but him is dead."

Xu Sinian's hand landed on the steering wheel and pressed his head against it, and the moment he closed his eyes, the information flow was chaotic and fast.

He frowned tightly, trying to sort out the strange points from it.

"Xu Sinian." Lin Xian suddenly shouted.

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

"Do you think he's a little too much...... Happy? ”

Before Lin Xian's words fell, Xu Sinian suddenly raised his head and stared at Lin Xian, "Go on." ”

"Uh......"

Lin Xian was a little apprehensive by Xu Sinian's gaze, she paused for a moment, thinking about the words,

"I always feel like he's a little happy? Or is it caper? ”

Xu Sinian's mind flashed with inspiration, and something was about to be connected.

He looked at Lin Xian deeply, his eyes full of encouragement and recognition, "Is there anything else?" ”

Seeing this, Lin Xian became a little bolder, and continued,

"Sacrifice, whole family, I always feel that it should be sadness, grief, heaviness and so on, but the feeling that Dr. Zhang brought to me ......"

Seeing that Lin Xian was a little hesitant, Xu Sinian dispelled her worries and said, "Just say that with me, you don't have to worry so much." ”

"Hmm!" Lin Xian nodded emphatically,

"I think he's more like going to a place where he can relax, where he can relax, where he can relax, where he can be intimate or lover, where he can be burdened in the slightest."

Xu Sinian listened to Lin Xian's words, and was a little puzzled, "How can you see it?" ”

"You're stupid, you can't see it." Lin Xian glanced at Xu Sinian, and immediately realized Xu Sinian's identity, and she was a little nervous.

"Well, I'm looking forward to it, and he's full of joy. The pace of leaving after greeting you is also very relaxed. ”

It turns out that this is the case, it is worthy of being a girl, and there is nothing wrong with this kind of detail.

"In this case, I have to find out what Dr. Zhang Hua's situation is now."

Xu Sinian immediately said to death when Lin Xian's small mouth just opened, "You are not allowed to go!" ”

"Oh." Lin Xian pursed his lips and replied aggrievedly.

While Xu Sinian opened the door and got out of the car, he continued to command Lin Xian,

"Now you either go home or find a place to stay, but you are not allowed to follow, do you understand?"

"What's the matter! I heard it, I heard it, I heard it in both ears. Lin Xian pouted and replied, not daring to be too loud.

Xu Sinian didn't pay much attention to her, turned over and got out of the car, picked up a gray jacket from the back seat of the jeep and put it on, turned out a pair of sunglasses and put them on.

"Be honest."

"Wait until I get back to you."

If Xu Sinian only had the previous sentence, Lin Xian would most likely be furious.

However, Xu Sinian didn't know how to contact Lin Xian, so he took the initiative to come back to her. This sentence had some unusual meaning in Lin Xian's ears.

She shouted arrogantly at Xu Sinian,

"Oh, I see."

But at this time, Xu Sinian had already disappeared on the long street under the cover of the crowd.

The outer city of the high wall of the Shang capital, the closer to the city wall power grid, the cheaper the land price, but at the same time, the greater the radiation and the more dangerous.

Low houses are close to each other, alleys more than a meter wide are long and cramped, broken floor tiles are wet and pressed against the sewer inlet, and the smell of domestic garbage hits the nose through the mouth of the pipe.

Sunlight can't get into the narrow alleys.

Zhang Hua walked into the deepest part of the alley.

Xu Sinian followed step by step under the reflection of the shady house.

As the alley gets deeper, the temperature gets colder and colder.

At the end of the alley is a wall, and both the wall and the ground are covered with moss because they don't see sunlight all day.

Xu Sinian's gaze slid beyond the green walls to the dense power grid and towering city walls.

He stared intently at the wall, which was supposed to protect the future of humanity, and there were one shocking image after another on the power grid and the city walls.

Xu Sinian looked at it calmly, and retracted his gaze calmly.

Move your feet towards the houses in the deepest part of the alley.

There was no yard, a remote hut, nestled in the deepest shadows, damp and cold all year round, like moss in the gutter, and it did not see the light of day all year round.

Why would an attending physician at Hospital No. 3 in the inner city choose to live in such a place!

Stayed in the dirtiest and messier part of the city, not one of them!

Xu Sinian couldn't understand the stench in front of the door, there was a smell in the air that the domestic garbage could not flow out normally, and it was blocked together.

He slowed his breathing, tried to inhale as little as possible, and raised his hand to tap it on the plank.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

"Wait a minute."

Zhang Hua's voice came out first, followed by footsteps approaching, and the door was pulled open from the inside.

"Hello Dr. Zhang." Xu Sinian was the first to greet him.

"Hello, hello." Zhang Hua first responded politely, and then asked with some confusion, "Why are you here?" ”

Xu Sinian's mind was spinning rapidly, "I just moved here recently. ”

"Huh?" Zhang Hua was puzzled.

"I can't help it, the pressure of life inside the walls is too great, there are too few jobs in the outer city, and the salary is even more of a drop in the bucket. You can only save a little bit from where you live first. ”

After Xu Sinian sighed, he quickly changed the topic and said, "Don't talk about me, Dr. Zhang, do you also live here?" ”

Zhang Hua seemed a little embarrassed, "I have just moved here, and I am too busy with work, so I am not very familiar with the situation here. ”

"What's the matter with you?"

"No, no." Xu Sinian waved his hand and said, "Even if you see Dr. Zhang, you also live here, so I took the liberty of coming over to say hello to you, and I would like to ask you to take care of me in the future." ”

"It's okay, everyone will be neighbors in the future, and we should help each other." Zhang Hua seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and he looked like he was about to give an eviction order as he spoke.

Xu Sinian turned his head quickly, thinking of a countermeasure.

"Dr. Zhang, I see you bought a lot of things today, what's going on at home? Can I help you? He asked knowingly, tentatively.

Zhang Hua suddenly said with some joy, "There is indeed something going on today, my family is just a birthday today, she likes a lot of people to play with her, the kind of birthday that is lively." ”

"But we have only just moved here for a short time, and none of the neighbors have taken many faces, and they haven't opened their mouths with this face, so don't you have a temper tantrum inside."

Xu Sinian already knew about the situation of Zhang Hua's family through the personal identity information retrieval of the logistics department, and knew the fact that his family had passed away except for him.

But looking at his serious expression and sincere and hopeful gaze, Xu Sinian couldn't help but feel a chill on his back, and a cold sweat broke out.

"Can you come and celebrate her birthday?"
