Chapter 43: Fever
The bar is located in the most prosperous downtown commercial street area, more than ten stops away from her apartment, and she now has no dime on her, let alone a taxi, and she can't even afford to sit on the bus.
Her mind was spinning fast, she would definitely catch a cold if she ran all the way back, and at her current speed, it was already late at night when she was returning to the apartment, and the unsafe short road made her a little jealous, what should she do?
Calling for help? She glanced around, the public phone was there, but she had no money on her, and the phone was not on her, so she couldn't remember the numbers of those people at all. Take a taxi and pay later? Taxis are not allowed in the apartment, and if the driver waits outside for her to go back and get the money, will people believe her?
Thinking about it, it seems that all the problems are stuck in the word "money", for no reason, she feels a burst of discouragement, she usually doesn't need help when she doesn't feel lonely, and now when something happens, she can't find someone who can help her anytime and anywhere.
I'm living too much.
She resigned herself to her fate, and walked to the apartment step by step.
The night was cold, she hugged her arms tightly, the cold started from the soles of her feet, spread in her limbs, and after a while, her teeth began to fight, and her ears were bustling streets, with busy traffic and hustle and bustle, she thought, if she fainted on the street from the cold, would anyone not be afraid to touch the porcelain and send herself to the hospital?
It turns out that this kind of bloody episode really only appears in conjecture and eight-o'clock idol dramas, the winter in the south is like a little bug, it will only make people jump so cold that they want to faint, even at night, the power of the cold is far from enough.
Back to the apartment, the moment she got the spare key in the security room and entered the house, she had a trance feeling of returning to the world from hell, turned on the air conditioner with her frozen hands, turned on the temperature to the highest, and then went headlong into the bathroom, turned on the shower without taking off her clothes, and the warm water poured down her head, and finally there was a trace of heat in her breath.
Dizzily changed into pajamas and walked out of the bathroom, the chill that came out of her bones was still unabated, she shivered twice, turned out the medicine box and poured out two cold medicines to swallow, she had lived alone for so many years, she already knew how to take care of herself.
Before falling asleep wrapped in the quilt, a question came to her mind, how to get her phone back? Then mobile phones are not cheap.
In a daze, Xia Han knew that she had a fever, and it was very hot, she forced her soft body to get up and take antipyretics, her throat was so thirsty that it seemed to be about to split, she took a large glass of water from the water dispenser, and she frowned as soon as she took a sip, it was cold.
She squinted at the water cooler and realized that the power was out.
This is not unusual, in addition to the low security in the apartment, the power supply is also a problem, often read a good book, the overhead light goes dark without warning, everything is silent, and then there is a curse all around......
Raising her eyes and looking outside, the window was dawning, and it was about to dawn, Xia Han held her head and thought about it, turned on the computer and left a message for Xiao Wei with QQ, asking her to help her take a day off, and explained some precautions that need to be handed over at work, after doing this, she turned off the computer, filled all the cold water in the cup in one go, and wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, she thought, just sleep and sweat.
But the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, this cold came violently, even if she was taking medicine and sweating, but it was useless, and when she woke up again, it was already thousands of lights outside.
She was awakened from the cold.
It's cold, it's cold.
