Chapter 92: Drunk can't be happy and miserable
"You ask the girl who saved people? She was an orphan who dropped out of school early and worked here to make ends meet, and then found a long job in a department store to show people a warehouse, and then planned to work here forever. ”
At this time, Jiang Bei and the others had already come to the hotel and were asking the boss about the things of the year.
The boss was a little curious as to why they were asking, but he replied: "She came to ask me about renting a house a few days before she came here, probably because she saw that I was a hotel and thought I knew something about it." In fact, my room here can be rented for a long time, although it is not as affordable as renting directly, but it is more flexible;
"If you want to rent a house in this area, you have to pay at least three months' rent first, and you have to pay a deposit, and you have to spend a lot of money at once, which is different for me, you can live for a week and half a month, and you don't have to pay so much at one time if you live for a day and pay a day;
"The girl plans to live here for a month and a half now, and when this month's salary is paid plus the money she originally saved, she can make up enough for the rent of the house, but she didn't think that she would come to work for less than half a month, and the building caught fire, and when she ran out, she went to save the person in the locked cabinet, and she and the man burned to the fire;
"A few months after the fire, the girl suddenly returned, and covered her face with a scarf with only two eyes. I also said just now that she has no family and no money, so I came back and asked me if she had only lived here for half a month before, and could she continue to live for the remaining ten days;
"I knew she had nowhere to live, so I let her stay here, and there was a little attic on the top of the building that wouldn't rent out for as long as she could. This little girl is still very kind and optimistic, every time she talks to her, she doesn't seem to be too negative, and she wants to find a job and continue to work to make money;
"But there must be no place to work for her like that, she is looking for a job everywhere, not to mention, and some children who watch the excitement always follow her and hit her with stones;
"It's really eye-catching to have that on your face...... I'm an insider, so I don't think anything about it, but the other people who don't know about the fire are all dodged away when they see her;
"Usually when she goes out, her face is wrapped in gauze, which doesn't make much of a difference, but when some children hear that she lives here, they secretly follow her and scribble on the door of her room......
As he spoke, the boss led them to the attic door on the roof of the hotel, where Ebe could see the department store not far away.
But he didn't look out the window for long, but was attracted by the attic door in front of him.
I saw that it was full of "bandage face" and "ugly eight monsters" written with colorful watercolor pens and chalk
Even the walls and doorways are covered in these colorful handwriting.
Seeing these people, they were silent.
"Don't say that the girl's temperament is really good, I haven't seen her get angry after being like this, I still talk and laugh when I see her, but I can see that she is also uncomfortable. The children always sneaked in and bullied people when I wasn't looking, until one night a child ran to her door and scribbled on the floor;
She didn't know that there was someone outside, and it was night when the cloth on her face was removed, and she wanted to open the door to breathe. I didn't expect to come out and bump into the child who was writing on the ground, the face scared the child half to death, he couldn't speak, he couldn't walk, he went back to have a big illness and never dared to come again;
"To be honest, I felt like I deserved it. But the child's parents were not happy when they thought that the child was sick because of the girl, so they came here every day to smash it, squatting at the door of the store and scolding that there were monsters living in it;
The girl spoke less and less, and she became a little gloomy. Later, she quietly left while I wasn't looking, probably because she didn't want to cause me trouble, what a good boy. The shopkeeper sighed, "It's been a few years since she's gone, and I don't know how she's doing now." ”
She's dead.
He also became a ghost.
Probably killed himself in despair somewhere shortly after leaving here.
She didn't want to be looked at like a monster by others with this face.
Yu Jue was silent for a while and then asked the innkeeper, "Didn't she tell you where she was going when she left?" ”
The boss shook his head: "No, I don't know where she went...... Speaking of which, why are you so concerned about this girl? Are you journalists? ”
The boss even arranged their identities for them, and they went straight to the words.
"Yes, I heard about the fire two years ago, so I wanted to come and find out." Zhao Ziyang tidied up the unkempt bird's nest head, wanting to make himself look more professional.
The boss remembered one thing: "Not long after the fire, a painter heard about the girl's rescue, and came here to paint a portrait of her, saying that the beauty and ugliness of people are not in their appearance but in their hearts;
"He also took this painting to others and wanted to talk about the fire and save people, but when they saw it, they were frightened, thinking that it was a curious portrait, and they thought that the painter had drawn such a terrible painting, so he was afraid that there was something wrong with his heart, so he turned around and ran away."
This painter should be Xu Shenzhou.
Later, the painting was deposited in the gallery, and the people who came to see it did not know the meaning behind it, and completely regarded it as a hunting painting.
"Oh yes, didn't that girl save someone from the fire, a kind of stupid boy. His mother moved with him shortly after the fire, and he doesn't know where he went. The boss spoke.
"Isn't it these two?" Zhao Ziyang took out the photo.
"Yes, yes, that's it." The boss nodded, "About a few months ago, this mother suddenly came back here with the boy, and came to me to ask if the girl was dead. How can anyone ask such a question, as soon as they come, they will ask if they are dead, and I don't know;
When she heard that I didn't know, she asked me if I knew where the man who painted the portrait of the girl lived, and she knew about the portrait of the girl back then. But I don't even have a problem with people's names, and I don't know where they live. She saw that I didn't know anything, so she took her son with her, and I didn't know where she went, anyway, I haven't seen her since. ”
She also died, hanging in the department store next to her.
"That's all I know about the fire, and I don't know anything else." The boss looked at the attic door in front of him, "If you want to go in and see, go in, I haven't touched her things and they're still inside." ”
Zhao Ziyang thanked the boss and pushed the door in, Jiang Bei saw through the door that it had been covered with ash because it had not been inhabited for many years, but the furnishings were very neat, and it could be seen that it was taken care of with great care.
"Boss, do you know the name of the girl who saved people?" Jiang Bei didn't enter the attic, and he didn't know the name of this ghost yet.
"I asked her before, but she didn't tell me because she said her name didn't sound good." The boss stood on the rooftop and looked at the department store not far away.
Then he said something strange: "Young man, I remember that there were not eight of you when you came?" Why are there only seven left? ”
Jiang Bei paused: "She left a little beforehand." ”
Bai Feixue is dead.
"I think she's in the department store across the street." The boss stretched out his hand.
Ebetsu followed his finger to the building.
I saw a head poking out of one of the windows of the building, and my eyes were fixed on this side.
