don't talk to aliens

Fang Er's words, accompanied by the departure of the car whose license plate is always changing anytime and anywhere, finally disappeared mysteriously behind the steel factory.

At four or five o'clock, the sun was setting slowly, leaving a vague shadow of the factory wall behind the old city.

Because the car was parked just opposite the No. [-] Steel Factory, it was quite convenient for Li Xie to walk all the way back.

Before that, he hadn't been home for almost three nights.

However, he was always away from home all day long, fooling around outside like this, hiding in a dilapidated building in the old city, and no one could notice his disappearance or appearance one day.

This is to a certain extent the reason why he chose to come to Longjiang City to remain anonymous.

Because a person who has never had much contact with the outside world and does not have any relatives or friends is the easiest to disappear one day or fail to perform a mission and die without being discovered.

Over the past four or five years, he's managed to do just that.

But right now, in just two or three months, things that have gradually derailed, even deviated from his original intention and development, seem to have become much more complicated and troublesome.

After the attack on the Oilfield Building, he turned off his only mobile phone, which was broken to communicate with the outside world.

He didn't care about who would come to him after that, and whether anyone would care where he went. Anyway, after turning off the phone, he occupied Fang Er's house for two days, and spent his money on it. The business on the Internet has been dealt with.

In the past three days, Fang Er's first sentence when he woke up every day.

It was just asking him with grief and indignation when he would be able to return to his home, and after looking forward and looking forward, it was not until the third day that the big Buddha, who didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, finally agreed to leave.

At this moment, Li Xiezheng, who was walking back from the opposite street, walked step by step through several iron racks where clothes were dried, and passed by some ordinary neighbors who had bought vegetables and lived in nearby shacks.

People passing by didn't pay much attention to him.

Just like any passer-by who walks through the old town every day, his appearance, including his attire, does not make others have a superfluous impression of him.

But when he walked all the way downstairs to his house.

For some reason, Li Xie, who had been outside for a few nights, made a special trip to stop far away, relying on a kind of intuition that had been tempered in his bones, and looked tentatively under the canteen across the street.

At a glance, there are no cars at the entrance of the canteen this time.

Unlike the last two nights in the middle of the night, the bottom was completely clean. Obviously, a certain prehistoric Tyrannosaurus rex brutal and upstart young master hadn't come to him in the past two days.

And seeing this for a while was completely expected.

I don't know if it was a sigh of relief or something else.

Standing on the opposite side for two seconds, Li Xie, who felt that he was really worrying, was not as inexplicably restrained as before. Instead, he simply walked through and entered the small shop along the way, thinking about buying something before going upstairs. .

Because it was already evening, before entering the canteen, he saw a person sitting at the door with a newspaper and something at his feet.

The other party lowered his head, but just looking at the glowing white fingers holding the edge of the newspaper, it doesn't look like he lives here.

Therefore, Li Xie, who never talked to 'strangers', didn't even look at him, went in and lay down on the glass cabinet of the tobacco and wine counter, knocked on it and threw ten yuan in the past, wanting to ask the boss to buy a pack of cigarettes.

"Is anyone here?"

"..."

"Hey, the family has eaten so early, let's pack some cigarettes, boss."

It was said that the boss who was eating inside did not come out, but the boss's wife ran out after wiping her hands.

And when she saw him, the proprietress, who was not usually here, was a little surprised. First, she ran forward and opened the drawer to get him a pack of the cheapest cigarettes, and then she opened her mouth and asked,

"Li Xie, you're back, where have you been these few days?"

"Stayed at a friend's house for two days, what's wrong?"

Li Xie took the cigarette and opened the outer box, and didn't care when he heard this, so he lowered his head and asked back.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that your landlord came again two days ago, saying that your lease is coming up, and he wants you to find a way to pay the rent, utilities, or you will be kicked out. Why is the electricity bill always so high, the old electric meter in our area can’t bear it, you alone cost five other people..."

"Our electrical appliances are powerful, so the electricity bill is high, normal, is there anything else?"

"No, oh, no, there's more, how can I forget about this, his dad, where did you put that thing—"

The proprietress, who was panting heavily, just said no on her front foot, and then said yes on her back foot. Li Xie, who was holding a cigarette, looked at the middle-aged woman inexplicably for a while, but saw her running inside to search for a long time in the warehouse, and then picked up the cigarette again. I took out a very high-end box and handed it to him,

"Hey, your things have been in our house for several days. I wanted to wait for you to go home and give them to you, but you didn't come back after waiting..."

"...My stuff? Did it go wrong? If it's broken, I won't pay for it, big sister."

"How is it possible, it's for you, and your name is written on the outside..."

Having said that, Li Xie also took the box that couldn't possibly be his, and took a look at it.

Before he opened it, he had no idea what it would be, but after he opened it, the expression on his face froze, because there was nothing else in the box, but a black suit with a good workmanship at first sight , and a Chinese character card with a camellia flower.

【Gift to: Mr. Li Xie】

【Fu Bailong】

I haven't seen this name for many days, and it appeared under my nose.

At this moment, seeing it again, Li Xie felt an indescribable silence in his heart.

For a moment, he felt a little strange in his heart. It was a kind of strangeness that whenever he thought of the other party's name, his heart that had been barren for a long time would surge up for no reason.

After all, before this, no one would miss him or think about giving him anything for many years.

And seeing that he didn't have any reaction to receiving such a big thing, the proprietress thought he had forgotten something, and quickly pushed back the tobacco and alcohol cabinet in front of the two of them and opened her mouth and said,

"Your friend has been waiting for you here for several days. He comes every day. He waits for three or four hours until it gets dark before leaving. At the beginning, he carried this with him. Later, he probably felt that it was a bit troublesome to go back and forth, so he just let me go." Here it is, Li Xie, this dress looks quite expensive at first glance, your friend and you have a really good relationship..."

"..."

After hearing this, Li Xie didn't know how to respond.

In essence, he and that person are not friends at all, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have not met each other for eight lifetimes, so this kind of thing in front of him and what the proprietress said are waiting for him for three or four hours, he really can't stand it rise.

And just as he closed the box that should have been received three days ago, he couldn't help but silently suppressed a sigh of relief in his heart, he adjusted his expression after making sure that there was no car downstairs just now, and didn't report it. He asked casually in anticipation.

"Then where is he today? Has he already left?"

"Go? No, isn't he waiting for you at the door? Didn't you see him when you came in?"

"..."

"He hasn't come to look for you by car in the past two days, did you just not notice, yo, look, he has stood up and looked at you at the door now, hey, it's the expression on his face now that looks like It seems a little scary..."

Li Xie: "..."

This sentence really sounds like the same effect as a ghost movie right now.

The proprietress is worthy of being the proprietress, one second can create an atmosphere comparable to a bitter movie for Li Xie who hasn't been home for several nights, and the next second.It can directly scare the cold sweat off his back.

And for a moment, even if he didn't directly look back at the person behind him.

He could also intuitively feel a kind of anger coming from behind him, and the terrifying and murderous "death gaze" was attacking his back. The next second, he heard the familiar cold voice of a certain young master behind him. There was the sound of gnashing teeth——

"Crack, click—"

"..."

"You, still know, come back?"

"..."

"Do you know how many hours you have been late since that night, Mr. Li?

"..."

Although I knew for a long time that I would be "excused" by the young master who was released as a pigeon.

But when the moment came that was comparable to going to the guillotine, our brother Lu Yiming, the city hero of the people, Comrade Li Xie, still showed a bit of a difficult and desperate struggle, and took a step back with a strong desire to survive, trying to start laughing To evade responsibility,

"...That, that, yo, Young Master Fu, so you are here, haha! I didn't see you just now, low-key! Sure enough, low-key, I can explain this matter, don't be angry and listen to my explanation, actually, that day What happened at night... is a bit complicated, mainly because another classmate of mine, his aunt was killed in a car trying to save another dog——oh shit!! Fu Bailong! Why did you do it in front of others again! "

Before he finished speaking, he was 'cleaned up' by Mr. Fu's own brutal iron fist.

The lady proprietress of the commissary saw Li Xie so tall and burly, but Fu Bailong grabbed his collar and thanked him with a cold expression, and took him away, her jaw almost dropped in shock.

And when the screen changed, there were arguing and noisy sounds of "Hey, you, let me go" and "Brother, Grandpa, Young Master, we are all civilized people" all the way up the stairs.

These two times when we met alone, we were destined to have a lot of troubles. The "Encounter Road Narrow" was also difficult to rely on unilateral dragging to go upstairs, and it was very difficult to get the key into the house.

As soon as he entered, the young master Fu who was familiar with the way and occupied his house was not polite to him.

Relying on the rather unreasonable premise that someone not only let him go, but also disappeared for three days without reason, the two of them each occupied a sofa, and began to settle old accounts by meeting after so many days.

This old account mainly includes someone not earnestly fulfilling the contract and deliberately releasing pigeons for his banquet;

Afterwards, he tried to evade the responsibility after breaching the contract, and used his friend's aunt to be hit by a car for the second time to escape the sanction, and just downstairs, even a living person like him was sitting there, and he didn't even notice. Multiple responsibilities.

And for a while, the person who was caught at the door of the house could only confess his love again, covering a black and blue panda eye, squatting on the side of the sofa with his head in his arms, listening to Fu Bailong criticizing him word by word.

After a long time, Li Xie, who was basically no different from entering the gate of hell after returning home, weakly raised his hands to Mr. Fu himself on the opposite sofa and wailed,

"Okay, I was really wrong this time, okay... But I really have a reason, I had something to do that night, I told you already, although it was my fault to let you dove afterwards, it also violated our rules contract, but this is the end of the matter, right? Let’s calm down and sit down calmly and talk about it. Violence alone can’t solve the problem, right?”

"...Then tell me, how will this matter be resolved this time?"

"Uh, shall I take the initiative to admit my mistake?"

"anything else?"

Fu Bailong asked coldly.

"There is more? Cough, there is more, you can just think about what you want first, but I am a normal adult male, and my friends outside have something to do. Isn't it normal not to come back for three or two nights? Why are you blocking me every day for no reason? At the door of my house, those who don’t know think I owe you money, what should I do if I let others misunderstand.”

These words successfully stopped Fu Bailong's anger that was on the verge of erupting.

But obviously, he has been waiting for someone at his door for the past two days, but the unhappiness that he can't wait for a living person to come home is still lingering in his heart, and he really didn't understand it for a while, so he suddenly blocked every day with door-to-door debt collection This matter at the door of my house.

As a result, the next second, Li Xie was still a little confused. Li Xie, who hadn't figured it out, watched Fu Bailong, who was holding back a certain kind of rage, took out his mobile phone, and took out the four 50 yuan that he had already accumulated in just three days. He took a look at the multiple SMS and phone records.

"This, what is this?"

For some reason, Li Xie, who hadn't recovered from the unilateral "beating" just now, began to feel his back silently under Fu Bailong's indifferent gaze.

And he snapped his fingers brutally, quite sure that if this person doesn't come back tonight, tomorrow he will personally arrest a brat named Lu Ming Yiming, who beat up Mr. Fu himself, saying every word,

"Your brother, for three days in a row, kept calling me harassing calls."

"..."

"From morning to night, regardless of day or night, even when I was asleep in the middle of the night, they would call me suddenly to harass me."

"..."

"At the beginning of every sentence, there is something inexplicable over there, calling me sister-in-law affectionately, and asking if I am with his elder brother now, and asking where we are, are we on a honeymoon date and watching a movie, Are you happy? Do you want to share with him some feelings about falling in love. May I ask, if I don’t find you, who do you think I should turn to now to solve this “big problem” that has seriously plagued my daily life? ?”

Li Xie: "..."
