ghost appointment
Chapter 1 Part 1
The author has something to say: This is the first time I am writing, if there is something bad, please try to point it out, I will accept it humbly.You can collect it if you like.
01
The drizzle has been falling non-stop, the sky seems to be covered with a thick curtain, but the scene at five or six o'clock is as dark as the night.
It was already seven o'clock when Shan Zuo drove his car into his community, and he was stuck on the road for more than an hour during the rush hour. After driving the car into the underground garage, he still had to walk for a while to get downstairs to his house.
Just as he passed a trash can with an umbrella, he vaguely saw a person curled up next to the trash can through the drizzle, like discarded trash.He adjusted his glasses, because he often sat in front of the computer and caused his nearsightedness.He stretched his neck as far as possible like a tortoise, but what he saw was still a blurry mass. One or two drops of drizzle hit Shan Zuo's glasses, making his vision even more blurred.In desperation, he had no choice but to walk over to let him see as clearly as possible.
I saw that the man was wearing a pure black T-shirt and a pair of pure black trousers on his lower body. The fabric was invisible. His exposed arms, face, and his bare feet without shoes were all filthy.
"It's really a person." Shan Zuo pushed his glasses. In fact, the glasses fit well on his tall nose, but since he got them, it seems to have become a habit of his.
Shan Zuo looked around, all the houses were brightly lit, but there was no one on the road, except himself, and the man in the garbage dump.
"It seems that I was the only one who brought him home." He brushed away the garbage on the man, thinking that no matter whether he carried it or dragged it, it seemed that there was no way to prevent the dirty water on his body from touching his expensive suit.
"You can't leave it alone. If the suit is dirty, it will be dirty. If it's a big deal, I'll buy it again." He said this, as if comforting himself. The umbrella was too in the way, so he simply put it aside, carried the person on his back, and walked to the unit he lived in.The man looked thin, but he carried an unusually heavy weight on his back.
Shan Zuo lived on the 23rd floor. While waiting for the elevator, several people came over and looked at him strangely. To be precise, they looked at the person on his back strangely. That person's face was dirty and he couldn't see him clearly. What does it look like, but it's dirty, it doesn't stink anyway.
"Ding" means the elevator has arrived.
After entering the elevator, those people instinctively avoided him, and he also tried to stand in the corner as much as possible so as not to affect others.
"I'm inconvenient, can you press the 23rd floor for me? Thank you."
A girl pressed it for him, and he said thank you again, and the girl smiled back at him.
Shan Zuo had never felt that the elevator from the first floor to the 23rd floor was so long. Just when he felt that he had reached the limit and was about to throw the person on his back down, the elevator finally stopped at the 23rd floor with a ding .
He quickly rushed to the door of his room, put down the man on his back, then took out the key to open the door, and dragged him to the bathroom little by little.
He turned on the air conditioner to make the temperature in the room as high as possible. It was early spring, and after being drenched in the rain again, Shan Zuo seemed to be unable to feel the temperature of his hands and feet anymore.
He went to the bathroom to fill the bathtub with water, took off the man's clothes and pants, and threw them into the bathtub.The man was not wearing underwear.So when Shan Zuo took off his pants in one go, he was stunned for three seconds, then he looked away, threw him into the bathtub, and blocked his private parts with a towel.After stripping him naked, Shan Zuo was a bit strange. The man was still hot all over. He didn't become cold because he was wearing short sleeves and was blown by the rain and wind. It wasn't sickly hot, just—hot.
He washed the man responsibly, and took out his newly bought nightgown to put on for him, and threw it on the sofa.Then I went to take a shower by myself, cleaned up the water stains on the ground, and covered the man with a quilt. After everything was done, it was past nine o'clock, and Shan Zuo lay back on the bed, feeling that his bones were about to fall apart. up.Just came back from a business trip this afternoon, and was busy at the company all afternoon, and when he returned home in the evening, he showed his kindness and saved someone, Shan Zuo suddenly felt that he was so great.
He put the spectacle room aside, and fell into a deep sleep after a while.He is really exhausted.I had no dreams all night, but in the middle of the night, I felt a warm thing suddenly beside me. Shan Zuo instinctively leaned over to hug him, and then fell asleep until he woke up naturally, so that the alarm clock didn't even hear.
When he woke up the next day, he felt that he was being held in someone's arms. The light in front of him was blurry and relatively strong. Shan Zuo estimated that the sky that had been cloudy for a week had finally cleared up.
He touched the glasses on the bedside table on the right and put them on. The first thing he saw was the alarm clock that had been destroyed in some violent way. One piece here and the other was scattered on the ground, and the pointer was still pointing at 6:30 .When he looked to the left, a man in a gray nightgown came into his eyes. He remembered that set of nightgown, which was a new one he bought. He also remembered that face, and there was a little scratch on the corner of the right eye. , is the homeless man he picked up yesterday.
"Morning." The tramp woke up, looking at him with a pair of hazy eyes, with a little sincerity. "Oh, by the way, that thing over there kept ringing, and I didn't know how to turn it off, so I took it apart. If it's important to you, I'll buy you another one." He said lightly and Very ambiguous, as if they have known each other for a long time.
"You... broke my alarm clock? And slept on my bed? Who allowed you to do this." Shan Zuo was furious, but the homeless man didn't seem to care. "Revenge for kindness, do you know that if I hadn't brought you back, you might have froze to death. Don't move, I'll call the police immediately."
The homeless man was obedient and did not move.But when Shan Zuo took out his phone, he saw the time on it - 7:28.A thought popped out of his mind, "I'm going to be late", and this thought is about to become a reality. It takes more than 20 minutes to drive from here to the company, and if the road is smooth and there is no traffic jam, if you take the subway...you have to turn After taking the bus and coming out from the exit, you have to walk nearly one kilometer to get to the company.Shan Zuo quickly made a judgment in his mind, and found that he would be late no matter what, and the culprit was lying on his big soft bed and continued to sleep in his cage.Shan Zuo took a photo of him, and then quickly rushed to the bathroom, Shu brushed his teeth and washed his face, this time he will be late for the first time since he has been working in the company for two years, even if he is going to be late, he will try to keep the time as short as possible.
"If you have nowhere to go, just stay here." Better stay here because I'm going to call the police when I get off work.
Shan Zuo got dressed as quickly as possible, and while he was changing, he drove the homeless man out of his room, packed up the remains of the alarm clock, and hurried out of the room.
"Are you in a hurry?" asked the tramp.
"Well, I'm going to be late for work." And the culprit is still wandering around my house in my dressing gown.
"I have a way."
When Shan Zuo finally put on his shoes, the homeless man blocked him at the door to prevent him from going out, Shan Zuo looked at his watch again, it was only 10 minutes, and the psychopath in front of him was still delaying his time.
"I'll take you there."
"Thanks, I don't think two legs are faster than four wheels."
When he was about to open the door, the homeless man suddenly grabbed his waist and covered his eyes with his hands. He was startled, only to hear the homeless man say, "Think about where you are going."
Do you still want to think about it? His mind is full of companies now.
"You have..." Before the illness came out, the homeless man let go of his hand, he saw that he was no longer in his own home, the two of them were in a narrow space, and saw the graffiti on the wall and the toilet .This... seems to be the company's toilet.He looked at his watch, the time was still 7:42, only 2 minutes had passed, and he arrived at the company from home.
"Teleportation" this word appeared in Shan Zuo's mind, "How did you do it?" Shan Zuo couldn't believe it.He knocked on the surrounding walls, it was solid, until he walked from the toilet to his office and sat down, he still thought it was incredible.
"How did you do it? Wait who are you? No, can you teleport back to my house now?"
"En." The tramp nodded, answering his last question.
"Then... now please go back to my house and forget about the morning. By the way, the food is in the refrigerator, take it yourself."
"Well, what time do you get off work, do you still want me to pick you up?"
"If it's convenient for you, I don't mind. I get off work at six."
The homeless man made an "ok" gesture, and then Shan Zuo felt a flash in front of his eyes, and there was only the toilet cubicle full of graffiti in front of him, and there was no sign of the homeless man.
"It's too fantastical."
At six o'clock, there is only one person left in the company. He is the manager, so he gets off work slower than the employees, but the homeless man is very punctual.At that time, Shan Zuo had some work to do, and the homeless man was still wearing the pajamas he had in the morning.
"Come and sit on the side first, I'll finish it right away."
Although he has experienced it once, Shan Zuo still finds it unbelievable.Close your eyes, open your eyes, and go home from work.He couldn't help but click his tongue, and sighed, "Weird things happen every year, especially this year."
02
"what's your name?"
"Li Zhengyun."
"who are you?"
"I am me."
"Then where did you come from? Why is it in the garbage dump downstairs in my house, and, what's going on with your teleportation...?"
"There are so many questions." During the question and answer time in the evening, Shan Zuo had too many questions to ask Li Zhengjun. Although he didn't get anything meaningful, he somehow knew his name.
"I rescued you, brought you back indoors from the cold and windy outside, and took good care of you. In return, you should tell me your life experience, and I think it is meaningful for me to know your identity to ensure that I personal safety."
"You're safe, I'm here to protect you."
"???" Shan Zuo was confused.
"How should I put it, I won't be able to tell for a while, so I won't talk about it at all, um... About teleportation, I said I was born to be able to believe you?"
"I came to look for you that day, and something happened. If you see anything strange in the future, tell me right away." When Li Zhengjun said this, Shan Zuo almost thought he was crazy, but what happened later However, the matter had to make Shan Zuo stunned.
"As a result, I asked so many questions and you didn't say anything."
Li Zhengyun thought for a while, then said solemnly: "There is one thing I can tell you, you should be able to understand."
Shan Zuo: "???"
Li Zhengjun unbuttoned his nightgown, exposing his upper body, then he turned around, and Shan Zuo saw a tattoo on his shoulder blade, which looked like a curled flame, bent into a circle, about the size of the index finger and thumb clasped together big.Slowly, the tattoo changed from black to dark blue and then began to brighten, and finally emitted a huge light, which made Shan Zuo unable to open his eyes.At this moment, he felt a burning pain in the same place on his back as Li Zhengjun. He hurried to the bathroom and took off his clothes, looked at himself in the mirror, and sure enough there was a tattoo on the same place as Li Zhengjun , also glowing faintly.Shan Zuo seems to suddenly realize that this is not a tattoo anymore, it is like some kind of contract.
"What did you do to me?"
Shan Zuo got dressed, and came out of the bathroom angrily.Could it be that he was being targeted by some kind of cult?He thought so, and this Li Zhengjun was the leader, and he had already got something strange on him in just one night. "Put on your own clothes and leave my house now, right away."
Li Zhengyun didn't understand why Shan Zuo's mood fluctuated so much.
"Look, did I tell you? You don't believe me."
"Please get out, I have no money, if you need any donations or something to help me keep my finances, I don't need it. I don't know what kind of magic you used, but please leave my house now, or I will immediately Call the police."
Li Zhengjun looked at Shan Zuo, who had asked him a question softly just now, suddenly seemed to be a different person, and felt strange.He didn't know that Shan Zuo had already regarded him as the leader of a cult.
"That's the mark, it proves that there is a relationship between you and me.. Do you really want me to go?"
"Yes, you go quickly." Zuo Shan dragged Li Zhengjun and pushed towards the door. After opening the door, throwing him out and then closing the door, Shan Zuo thought that he had finally got rid of a big trouble.In order not to let him endanger others, Shan Zuo still called the police.There was a knock on the door before the police answered the phone.
"Which one?" Shan Zuo opened the door, and it was still Li Zhengjun.
"Here you are, I broke one for you this morning, so it's convenient to close this one."
Someone on the phone finally answered the phone: "Hi, hello."
"Thank you." He took back the alarm clock, and then closed the door again with a "bang".
"Hello, I want to call the police."
"Please tell me." The person on the phone said.
"Here is a person who behaves strangely. I suspect he is the leader of a cult." Shan Zuo said, feeling weird.
"The leader of the cult?" A question came from the other side of the phone: "Can you tell me something more accurate... um, his weird behavior."
Teleportation and a strange tattoo on his back.Shan Zuo wanted to say this, but on second thought, it seemed that Li Zhengjun hadn't said anything about money from the beginning to the end, only these two words were considered crazy, he was probably the one.
So he changed the subject and said again: "Sorry, I don't think he is the leader of the cult, he was a person I rescued on the side of the road, but now he is staying at my house, so I hope you can help me take away."
After a while, a voice came from over there: "Sorry sir, I don't know what you are talking about. We are calling the police. I hope you can understand the seriousness of reporting false alarms. We can't help you." Then the other end of the phone There was a "beep" sound, and the policeman hung up the phone.
He looked outside, and there was no one there.Forget it, don't embarrass him when he's gone.
For the two days of the weekend, Shan Zuo spent it in a daze.
Until Monday, Dan Zuo felt something was wrong, and his eyes seemed to be able to see some other things. Those things were blurry when Shan Zuo took off his glasses, and they were still blurry when he put them on.
At first he thought there was something wrong with his eyes, so he went to the hospital for an examination, but the doctor told him that his eyes were fine and his vision had recovered significantly.Shan Zuo told him again about the blurry things he saw, and the doctor told him that white-collar workers have a heavy workload, don't have enough rest time, the brain is tired, and hallucinations are also possible, so pay attention to rest more.
Shan Zuo believed it. After thanking the doctor, he devoted himself to work the next day.
The company has completed a new project and is going to hold a summary meeting. Shan Zuo sat on the general manager's seat and saw that the heads of all departments have arrived. At 8:01, Tan En, the director of the finance department, came late. She looked like She seemed a little weak and unable to cheer up, but there was a man behind her, wearing a gray suit, with a pale complexion, and his neck stretched forward weirdly like a vulture.
Shan Zuo remembered seeing this man somewhere - he was Tan En's husband.
"Family members are not allowed in and out of the conference room. This is a rule. If Director Tan feels unwell, he can go home and recuperate for a few days." After Shan Zuo said these words, everyone looked at him with strange eyes.When Shan Zuo looked over again, Tan En, the director of the Ministry of Finance who was named, suddenly changed his face again, his face was radiant, and the delicate makeup on his face made her look even more charming, a representative of the standard urban beauty.
"President Shan, I'm not feeling sick. I'm sorry, I was late for one minute due to personal matters."
Shan Zuo immediately realized that these things were blurred in front of his eyes for a few days, and "these things" could not be seen by others.He suddenly felt his hairs stand on end.
He had no choice but to follow Tan En's words: "I won't be held accountable for being late this time, and the next time will not be an example. If there is another time, it will be counted as being late for work."
"Understood, thank you Mr. Shan."
Everyone started reporting to work, only Shan Zuo felt restless because of that thing behind Tan En.He looked towards Tan En from time to time, because Tan En was sitting down, the thing was also bent over, its neck was still stretched forward in a strange posture, and it was close to the back of Tan En's head—as if it was sniffing something. .
Fortunately, everyone is carefully checking the information in their hands and then making a summary report, and no one cares about Shan Zuo's strangeness.
After the meeting, Shan Zuo called Tan En to the office.
"President Shan, what's the matter?" Tan En was trembling, thinking it was because of being late.Say pardon in front of everyone, but still can't escape punishment?People have one face and another, Shan Zongyin shouldn't be such a person.It's also strange recently, I always feel uncomfortable, all of a sudden... that's why I accidentally arrived late...
"The company hasn't held an event for a long time." Just as Tan En was thinking wildly, Shan Zuo suddenly spoke, which made Tan En stunned.
"what?"
"The company should have extra funds. Even if it is for the success of this project, we should organize an employee activity and relax. We need to get rid of Xiao Tan in terms of finances." Shan Zuokanji finished speaking quietly These, in fact, the clothes on the back have already been soaked in cold sweat.Because ever since he and Tan En were alone together when he entered the door, her husband—that thing had been staring at him, and Shan Zuo could feel it, as if countless basins of cold water were pouring from the top of his head to his feet, with a smell chill.Shan Zuo is trying to ignore these things.
"Should be."
"By the way, you can bring your family members to this event. Xiao Tan, please bring your husband. You are usually so busy, you probably don't have time to accompany him!"
Speaking of Tan En's husband, she suddenly seemed a little sad: "My husband passed away a year ago, a car accident." Tan En said, feeling a little teary.
"After you've been busy for a while, Xiao Tan, you can take a vacation, and go...to see your husband." Shan Zuo said.
"Thank you Mr. Shan."
"carry on."
"Well, then I'll go first."
President Shan watched the thing disappear into his office following Tan En's figure.It has feet, but it floats.
"If you see anything strange then, tell me right away." Li Zhengjun's words jumped into Shan Zuo's mind.So this is the strange thing he said?
03
"Are you thinking of me?" The male voice that suddenly appeared behind gave Shan Zuo a big jump, coupled with the double fright of the strange thing just now, Shan Zuo's reaction was to almost jump up, and then after seeing Li Zhengjun clearly, he said that A hanging heart was put down.He changed his clothes.
"How did you show up?"
Teleport.Shan Zuo suddenly remembered. "Why are you here?"
"Don't you miss me? I'm here."
"Who the hell are you? Do you know what that was just now?"
"I said you won't drive me away again, right?"
"No!" Shan Zuo waved his hand, "After seeing that thing, I want to believe your words, can you deal with that thing?"
"Can handle it."
"Then can you give him now... get him out of here, I can see him, and he seems to know that I can see him." Shan left pointing outside, Tan En has returned to her own job No, Shan Zuo's office can't see her.
"En." Li Zhengjun agreed, then went out, and came back from outside after a while, with a black square in his hand.
"Is that all right?"
"Well, he's in the box, would you like to take a look?"
"Need not."
"So you're afraid of this too."
"It's creepy to be seen by them. Is it a ghost? I remember those superstitious people said that ghosts don't come out during the day, and they aren't afraid of the sun?"
In the evening, Shan Zuo asked Li Zhengjun a lot of questions again. This time he finally got something useful. Li Zhengjun said that he would see many such things in the future, and he could deal with them, so he went to The second time he said that he was here to protect himself, it seemed right.And the imprint behind them is the connection between them. If there is something to do with Shan Zuo, Li Zhengjun can be there on call.
"Just think about it in your heart?"
"Hmm." Li Zhengjun walked to the bathroom and said, "Try it." Then Shan Zuo silently said "Li Zhengjun, come to me" in his heart. When he opened his eyes, Li Zhengjun was indeed sitting on the sofa. The process only took a few seconds. If he had walked over, Shan Zuo would definitely have noticed his movement, but he didn't. It was like time-traveling into a fantasy novel. It was so wonderful.
"Aren't you always cold in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and are afraid of the cold?" Li Zhengjun asked him suddenly.
"That's it."
"With your physique, it's easy to recruit those things. They get close to you, suck your breath away, and then you will turn into a corpse."
"What the hell is it?"
"An inhuman soul that did evil in life and became mutilated after death will look for a living person as a host like a parasite."
"I won't be parasitized?"
"Yes, and you are special. They would like to suck your breath and eat your soul."
"That person today—that thing didn't come close to me."
"Because you have my mark on you, he knows that if he gets close to you, he will only die, so he can only stare at you, but he can't eat a big plate of food. These things are much more cunning than people."
"Then... I hope you will protect me in the future, my life is very precious."
Shanzuo's house has two bedrooms and one living room, and the other room is used as a utility room by Shanzuo because no one has ever lived in it, and it will not be tidy up for a while.Didn't even buy a bed at all.So Li Zhengjun said: "Then I will wrong you to sleep on the sofa, or you can sleep with me." He refers to sleeping together in the single left room.
When Shan Zuo wanted to refute and get angry, Li Zhengjun always said: "Being a bodyguard is very tiring, so make sure you have a good rest. I will have nightmares when I sleep on the sofa, and I want to sleep on the bed."
Shan Zuo originally thought about going to the furniture store to buy a bed on the weekend, but he was not used to the sofa at all, and his whole body ached after sleeping all day, so on the second day, Shan Zuo slept back in his room.On the two-meter-wide bed, Shan Zuo used the quilt to make a dividing line. He occupied most of the bed, and Li Zhengjun was squeezed to the edge.
Shan Zuo is afraid of the cold, and he will always unconsciously lean towards something hot.What he hates the most is winter, no matter how thick he wears, the cold wind seems to be alive, drilling into his neckline and sleeves.
In his sleep, he seemed to be walking in a field of ice and snow, his whole body was cold. After walking for an unknown amount of time, he seemed to slowly see the light of a fire, so he walked hard, walked hard, and finally got close to the fire. It turned out that it was a glowing , something soft, he approached it, and hugged it tightly.This dream seemed to be over like this. After that, there was no dream all night, and I woke up until dawn.
As Li Zhengjun said, Shan Zuo began to see more and more of those things. They were dressed in strange clothes, some were even naked, following behind some people, their necks twisted and stretched forward, Shan Zuo looked towards When they were watching them, it was always watching Shan Zuo. When Shan Zuo was startled, Li Zhengjun's name immediately came to mind, and then he would appear immediately. It seemed easy to clean up those things.
"Why did you come to protect me and not others?" After seeing more and more of those things following behind people, Zuo Shan finally thought of this question.This time Li Zhengjun didn't seem to be very happy to answer, he just said: "I am willing."
Afterwards, Shan Zuo still asked this question, and Li Zhengjun always answered vaguely, or simply didn't answer it at all. After a long time, Shan Zuo didn't bother to ask.
04
On April [-]th, everything was no different from usual, the sky was bright and sunny, just like their company, every day was thriving.But at this time Tan En, the director of the Ministry of Finance, suddenly went into shock, and he had already gone west after being sent to the hospital.The cause of death is unknown.The doctor said that the sudden death was not caused by overwork, and they couldn't detect it, because Tan En's body functions were all normal.
Just when my colleagues were lamenting the strangeness of the doctor, Shan Zuo saw Tan En who had been covered with a white cloth and sat up, while Tan En's body on the hospital bed was motionless, Shan Zuo knew that this was her soul.Only then did he remember that Tan En's ex-husband leaned behind her and sucked her breath, which should be the real cause of her death.Afterwards, he asked Li Zhengjun and confirmed his thoughts. Tan En seemed to have died as a matter of course.
Tan's father, Tan's mother, who learned of his daughter's death, held up a sign and made a fuss in front of Shan Zuo's company. Some unscrupulous company forced their young daughter to death.In the past, he had a good time with Tan En and was persuading Tan's father and Tan's mother, but the most troublesome ones were Shan Zuo and the executives.He lost a few pounds because of this.
After a month of trouble, it's finally over.
After work this day, Shan Zuo walked to the company's underground garage to go home, and found a familiar man standing beside his car, wearing a suit and leather shoes.Shan Zuo's memory of this person seems to be a little fuzzy.
If he hadn't spoken first, Shan Zuo would not be able to remember for a while.
"I'm Xia Yuan, don't you remember me?"
After being reminded, Shan Zuo remembered that Xia Yuan's real name was Xia Yun, because his mother wanted a girl so much, so she gave him such a name. Shan Zuo and he used to be neighbors, and they had a good relationship.It is also fate, they are in the same class in elementary school, high school and junior high school.Shan Zuo used to laugh at him because of his name for a long time, saying that a big man named a girl named him. Later, Xia Yun finally pestered his mother to change the name. Others didn't know to call him Xia Yun, only Shan Zuo Zuo always called him Xia Yuan, but he didn't mind.It's just that his grades have always been better than Shan Zuo's. After graduating from high school, he was admitted to a better university, so the two went their separate ways, and their fate ended like this.
"Really, you have changed so much, we haven't seen each other for many years."
"You haven't changed at all, you still have no memory." Xia Yun said. "It's been eight years since high school. The last time I went to your house, I found you weren't there. I asked my uncle and he said he didn't even know where you were. Did you run out of conflict with your family?"
Shan Zuo shook his head: "I just want to show them that I can make a career without them. I heard that you have gone abroad to study. Get in the car first."
Shan Zuo sat in the driver's seat, and Xia Yun then became the co-pilot.
"Now that I've finished my studies, I'm back to work."
"It's amazing, you must be developing in a big company."
"Not as good as you, I'm the general manager."
"This is also what I spelled out with blood and tears. How did you find me?"
"Based on intuition, do you believe it or not? I remember that you said you liked Mingcheng very much, so I came to inquire about it. I didn't expect to find you. Shan Zuo, the general manager of xx company, is really good."
"The seafood here in Mingcheng is good, have you had dinner yet?" Shan Zuo asked Xia Yun.He remembered that Xia Yun used to like seafood.To be exaggerated, they can be regarded as growing up wearing a pair of trousers. Although they have not been in touch for eight years and their appearance has changed a lot, Shan Zuo still remembers what he likes to eat——Xia Yun is not a picky eater, but his most I like to eat seafood, but I can't eat spicy food, and I can accept everything else.
"Not yet. It's rare that Ah Zuo still remembers what I like to eat."
"You are an omnivore, you can eat anything anyway, so it's easy to raise."
Xia Yun laughed loudly, and said jokingly, "Then please, Zuo, let me take care of me in the future."
One second he was still chatting and laughing, but the next second Shan Zuo couldn't laugh - when did he sit in the back seat of his car with "that kind of thing".Shan Zuo could see that the thing's eyes were empty, but those empty eyes looked at him as if they were conveying the message "you will be my dinner soon".Xia Yun seemed to be talking about some interesting things that happened abroad, and Shan Zuo was staring at the rearview mirror.
Li Zhengjun Li Zhengjun Li Zhengjun.He kept calling Li Zhengjun's name in his heart, thinking how he would come so fast at a critical moment.
The thing started to approach Shanzuo, just like other people. It approached the back of his head. Xia Yun didn't notice anything wrong with Shanzuo. He kept talking about what he had seen and heard abroad, but Shanzuo didn't care to listen.That thing was getting better and better thanks to him, but Li Zhengjun never showed up.
In desperation, Shan Zuo had no choice but to grit his teeth and park the car on the side of the road, and got out of the car.Xia Yun called him behind him and asked him what's wrong.Shan Zuo ran as far away from his car as possible, tried one last time when he stepped on a stone and almost tripped, and called Li Zhengjun's name.
The pain didn't come as imagined, because someone caught him - Li Zhengjun finally appeared.
"What's wrong? You ran like this."
After seeing Li Zhengjun, Shan Zuo seemed relieved, but then remembered that Xia Yun had been thrown in the car by him and ran away by himself. Wasn't that monster trying to suck Xia Yun's anger?
He glared at Zheng Jun resentfully, and said, "I'll settle the score with you when I go back."
The second monk Li Zhengjun was puzzled.
As soon as he turned around, he found Xia Yun running after him, looking very worried about him.Seeing that he was not in the car, Shan Zuo was also relieved.
"Ah Zuo. What's the matter?"
"It's okay...I'm here to pick up a friend." Shan Zuo looked at Li Zhengjun.
"Seeing that you ran away in a panic just now, I thought something happened." After speaking, he looked at Li Zhengyun, "My name is Xia Yun, Zuo's friend, and a former classmate and neighbor."
Ah Zuo, you called so intimately.Li Zhengjun secretly disgusted him in his heart. "Li Zhengjun." He announced his name impatiently.The two didn't even shake hands symbolically, Xia Yun didn't extend his hand, and Li Zhengyun just didn't want to shake hands with him either.
"Wait a minute." Shan Zuo said to Xia Yun.Then he pulled Li Zhengjun over and said to him, "There is a monster in the car, go and catch it."
"what?"
"Xia Yuan is here, I won't tell you more, there is that kind of thing in the car, you grab it." Shan Zuo repeated it again, with a sullen tone.Li Zhengyun passed over suspiciously, that thing would never get close to Dan Zuo, even if it did, he would definitely notice it.
When he walked to the side of the car and looked inside, there was nothing, neither the front seat nor the back seat.
He looked at Xia Yun and didn't intend to say more. "come on."
"Where do you live? I'm sorry I can't treat you to dinner today. I'll take you back."
"What's wrong?" Xia Yun asked worriedly, Shan Zuo thought over and over again and decided not to tell Xia Yun about those things.
Seeing that Shan Zuo didn't intend to answer, Xia Yun gave his home address knowingly, Shan Zuo was slightly surprised, "I'm in the same neighborhood as me."
"Really, what a coincidence."
Shan Zuo drove home and took Xia Yun home by the way.
"Would you like to come to my house?" Xia Yun invited Shan Zuo.
"No need, we have something to do when we go home." Li Zhengjun stood in front of Shan Zuo, and Xia Yun had to deal with the trouble in his eyes.
"I'm inviting Ah Zuo..."
"I won't go today, which building does your family live in? I'll bring you food later." Shan Zuo said.
"You have learned how to cook." Xia Yun said with a little surprise.
"A person must learn to take care of himself when he is away, but he cannot starve himself to death."
"Haha, that's right. I live in Building X, 1602."
"Okay, then you just wait, and I'll treat you to dinner another day." Li Zhengjun squinted at Xia Yun all the time. It was strange that he couldn't tell whether this person was a human or a ghost. It was really strange.
"Do you know how to cook?" Li Zhengjun asked him on the way back. During the few months he lived with Shan Zuo, he had never seen him cook.
"I used to sign up for interest classes when I was bored, and then I bought recipes and figured it out myself."
"I think you haven't cooked for me after we've been together for so long. What is that Xia Yuan, you're going to wash your hands and make soup for him just after seeing each other... Hiss..." Li Zhengjun hadn't finished speaking, Shan Left gave him a kick.
01
The drizzle has been falling non-stop, the sky seems to be covered with a thick curtain, but the scene at five or six o'clock is as dark as the night.
It was already seven o'clock when Shan Zuo drove his car into his community, and he was stuck on the road for more than an hour during the rush hour. After driving the car into the underground garage, he still had to walk for a while to get downstairs to his house.
Just as he passed a trash can with an umbrella, he vaguely saw a person curled up next to the trash can through the drizzle, like discarded trash.He adjusted his glasses, because he often sat in front of the computer and caused his nearsightedness.He stretched his neck as far as possible like a tortoise, but what he saw was still a blurry mass. One or two drops of drizzle hit Shan Zuo's glasses, making his vision even more blurred.In desperation, he had no choice but to walk over to let him see as clearly as possible.
I saw that the man was wearing a pure black T-shirt and a pair of pure black trousers on his lower body. The fabric was invisible. His exposed arms, face, and his bare feet without shoes were all filthy.
"It's really a person." Shan Zuo pushed his glasses. In fact, the glasses fit well on his tall nose, but since he got them, it seems to have become a habit of his.
Shan Zuo looked around, all the houses were brightly lit, but there was no one on the road, except himself, and the man in the garbage dump.
"It seems that I was the only one who brought him home." He brushed away the garbage on the man, thinking that no matter whether he carried it or dragged it, it seemed that there was no way to prevent the dirty water on his body from touching his expensive suit.
"You can't leave it alone. If the suit is dirty, it will be dirty. If it's a big deal, I'll buy it again." He said this, as if comforting himself. The umbrella was too in the way, so he simply put it aside, carried the person on his back, and walked to the unit he lived in.The man looked thin, but he carried an unusually heavy weight on his back.
Shan Zuo lived on the 23rd floor. While waiting for the elevator, several people came over and looked at him strangely. To be precise, they looked at the person on his back strangely. That person's face was dirty and he couldn't see him clearly. What does it look like, but it's dirty, it doesn't stink anyway.
"Ding" means the elevator has arrived.
After entering the elevator, those people instinctively avoided him, and he also tried to stand in the corner as much as possible so as not to affect others.
"I'm inconvenient, can you press the 23rd floor for me? Thank you."
A girl pressed it for him, and he said thank you again, and the girl smiled back at him.
Shan Zuo had never felt that the elevator from the first floor to the 23rd floor was so long. Just when he felt that he had reached the limit and was about to throw the person on his back down, the elevator finally stopped at the 23rd floor with a ding .
He quickly rushed to the door of his room, put down the man on his back, then took out the key to open the door, and dragged him to the bathroom little by little.
He turned on the air conditioner to make the temperature in the room as high as possible. It was early spring, and after being drenched in the rain again, Shan Zuo seemed to be unable to feel the temperature of his hands and feet anymore.
He went to the bathroom to fill the bathtub with water, took off the man's clothes and pants, and threw them into the bathtub.The man was not wearing underwear.So when Shan Zuo took off his pants in one go, he was stunned for three seconds, then he looked away, threw him into the bathtub, and blocked his private parts with a towel.After stripping him naked, Shan Zuo was a bit strange. The man was still hot all over. He didn't become cold because he was wearing short sleeves and was blown by the rain and wind. It wasn't sickly hot, just—hot.
He washed the man responsibly, and took out his newly bought nightgown to put on for him, and threw it on the sofa.Then I went to take a shower by myself, cleaned up the water stains on the ground, and covered the man with a quilt. After everything was done, it was past nine o'clock, and Shan Zuo lay back on the bed, feeling that his bones were about to fall apart. up.Just came back from a business trip this afternoon, and was busy at the company all afternoon, and when he returned home in the evening, he showed his kindness and saved someone, Shan Zuo suddenly felt that he was so great.
He put the spectacle room aside, and fell into a deep sleep after a while.He is really exhausted.I had no dreams all night, but in the middle of the night, I felt a warm thing suddenly beside me. Shan Zuo instinctively leaned over to hug him, and then fell asleep until he woke up naturally, so that the alarm clock didn't even hear.
When he woke up the next day, he felt that he was being held in someone's arms. The light in front of him was blurry and relatively strong. Shan Zuo estimated that the sky that had been cloudy for a week had finally cleared up.
He touched the glasses on the bedside table on the right and put them on. The first thing he saw was the alarm clock that had been destroyed in some violent way. One piece here and the other was scattered on the ground, and the pointer was still pointing at 6:30 .When he looked to the left, a man in a gray nightgown came into his eyes. He remembered that set of nightgown, which was a new one he bought. He also remembered that face, and there was a little scratch on the corner of the right eye. , is the homeless man he picked up yesterday.
"Morning." The tramp woke up, looking at him with a pair of hazy eyes, with a little sincerity. "Oh, by the way, that thing over there kept ringing, and I didn't know how to turn it off, so I took it apart. If it's important to you, I'll buy you another one." He said lightly and Very ambiguous, as if they have known each other for a long time.
"You... broke my alarm clock? And slept on my bed? Who allowed you to do this." Shan Zuo was furious, but the homeless man didn't seem to care. "Revenge for kindness, do you know that if I hadn't brought you back, you might have froze to death. Don't move, I'll call the police immediately."
The homeless man was obedient and did not move.But when Shan Zuo took out his phone, he saw the time on it - 7:28.A thought popped out of his mind, "I'm going to be late", and this thought is about to become a reality. It takes more than 20 minutes to drive from here to the company, and if the road is smooth and there is no traffic jam, if you take the subway...you have to turn After taking the bus and coming out from the exit, you have to walk nearly one kilometer to get to the company.Shan Zuo quickly made a judgment in his mind, and found that he would be late no matter what, and the culprit was lying on his big soft bed and continued to sleep in his cage.Shan Zuo took a photo of him, and then quickly rushed to the bathroom, Shu brushed his teeth and washed his face, this time he will be late for the first time since he has been working in the company for two years, even if he is going to be late, he will try to keep the time as short as possible.
"If you have nowhere to go, just stay here." Better stay here because I'm going to call the police when I get off work.
Shan Zuo got dressed as quickly as possible, and while he was changing, he drove the homeless man out of his room, packed up the remains of the alarm clock, and hurried out of the room.
"Are you in a hurry?" asked the tramp.
"Well, I'm going to be late for work." And the culprit is still wandering around my house in my dressing gown.
"I have a way."
When Shan Zuo finally put on his shoes, the homeless man blocked him at the door to prevent him from going out, Shan Zuo looked at his watch again, it was only 10 minutes, and the psychopath in front of him was still delaying his time.
"I'll take you there."
"Thanks, I don't think two legs are faster than four wheels."
When he was about to open the door, the homeless man suddenly grabbed his waist and covered his eyes with his hands. He was startled, only to hear the homeless man say, "Think about where you are going."
Do you still want to think about it? His mind is full of companies now.
"You have..." Before the illness came out, the homeless man let go of his hand, he saw that he was no longer in his own home, the two of them were in a narrow space, and saw the graffiti on the wall and the toilet .This... seems to be the company's toilet.He looked at his watch, the time was still 7:42, only 2 minutes had passed, and he arrived at the company from home.
"Teleportation" this word appeared in Shan Zuo's mind, "How did you do it?" Shan Zuo couldn't believe it.He knocked on the surrounding walls, it was solid, until he walked from the toilet to his office and sat down, he still thought it was incredible.
"How did you do it? Wait who are you? No, can you teleport back to my house now?"
"En." The tramp nodded, answering his last question.
"Then... now please go back to my house and forget about the morning. By the way, the food is in the refrigerator, take it yourself."
"Well, what time do you get off work, do you still want me to pick you up?"
"If it's convenient for you, I don't mind. I get off work at six."
The homeless man made an "ok" gesture, and then Shan Zuo felt a flash in front of his eyes, and there was only the toilet cubicle full of graffiti in front of him, and there was no sign of the homeless man.
"It's too fantastical."
At six o'clock, there is only one person left in the company. He is the manager, so he gets off work slower than the employees, but the homeless man is very punctual.At that time, Shan Zuo had some work to do, and the homeless man was still wearing the pajamas he had in the morning.
"Come and sit on the side first, I'll finish it right away."
Although he has experienced it once, Shan Zuo still finds it unbelievable.Close your eyes, open your eyes, and go home from work.He couldn't help but click his tongue, and sighed, "Weird things happen every year, especially this year."
02
"what's your name?"
"Li Zhengyun."
"who are you?"
"I am me."
"Then where did you come from? Why is it in the garbage dump downstairs in my house, and, what's going on with your teleportation...?"
"There are so many questions." During the question and answer time in the evening, Shan Zuo had too many questions to ask Li Zhengjun. Although he didn't get anything meaningful, he somehow knew his name.
"I rescued you, brought you back indoors from the cold and windy outside, and took good care of you. In return, you should tell me your life experience, and I think it is meaningful for me to know your identity to ensure that I personal safety."
"You're safe, I'm here to protect you."
"???" Shan Zuo was confused.
"How should I put it, I won't be able to tell for a while, so I won't talk about it at all, um... About teleportation, I said I was born to be able to believe you?"
"I came to look for you that day, and something happened. If you see anything strange in the future, tell me right away." When Li Zhengjun said this, Shan Zuo almost thought he was crazy, but what happened later However, the matter had to make Shan Zuo stunned.
"As a result, I asked so many questions and you didn't say anything."
Li Zhengyun thought for a while, then said solemnly: "There is one thing I can tell you, you should be able to understand."
Shan Zuo: "???"
Li Zhengjun unbuttoned his nightgown, exposing his upper body, then he turned around, and Shan Zuo saw a tattoo on his shoulder blade, which looked like a curled flame, bent into a circle, about the size of the index finger and thumb clasped together big.Slowly, the tattoo changed from black to dark blue and then began to brighten, and finally emitted a huge light, which made Shan Zuo unable to open his eyes.At this moment, he felt a burning pain in the same place on his back as Li Zhengjun. He hurried to the bathroom and took off his clothes, looked at himself in the mirror, and sure enough there was a tattoo on the same place as Li Zhengjun , also glowing faintly.Shan Zuo seems to suddenly realize that this is not a tattoo anymore, it is like some kind of contract.
"What did you do to me?"
Shan Zuo got dressed, and came out of the bathroom angrily.Could it be that he was being targeted by some kind of cult?He thought so, and this Li Zhengjun was the leader, and he had already got something strange on him in just one night. "Put on your own clothes and leave my house now, right away."
Li Zhengyun didn't understand why Shan Zuo's mood fluctuated so much.
"Look, did I tell you? You don't believe me."
"Please get out, I have no money, if you need any donations or something to help me keep my finances, I don't need it. I don't know what kind of magic you used, but please leave my house now, or I will immediately Call the police."
Li Zhengjun looked at Shan Zuo, who had asked him a question softly just now, suddenly seemed to be a different person, and felt strange.He didn't know that Shan Zuo had already regarded him as the leader of a cult.
"That's the mark, it proves that there is a relationship between you and me.. Do you really want me to go?"
"Yes, you go quickly." Zuo Shan dragged Li Zhengjun and pushed towards the door. After opening the door, throwing him out and then closing the door, Shan Zuo thought that he had finally got rid of a big trouble.In order not to let him endanger others, Shan Zuo still called the police.There was a knock on the door before the police answered the phone.
"Which one?" Shan Zuo opened the door, and it was still Li Zhengjun.
"Here you are, I broke one for you this morning, so it's convenient to close this one."
Someone on the phone finally answered the phone: "Hi, hello."
"Thank you." He took back the alarm clock, and then closed the door again with a "bang".
"Hello, I want to call the police."
"Please tell me." The person on the phone said.
"Here is a person who behaves strangely. I suspect he is the leader of a cult." Shan Zuo said, feeling weird.
"The leader of the cult?" A question came from the other side of the phone: "Can you tell me something more accurate... um, his weird behavior."
Teleportation and a strange tattoo on his back.Shan Zuo wanted to say this, but on second thought, it seemed that Li Zhengjun hadn't said anything about money from the beginning to the end, only these two words were considered crazy, he was probably the one.
So he changed the subject and said again: "Sorry, I don't think he is the leader of the cult, he was a person I rescued on the side of the road, but now he is staying at my house, so I hope you can help me take away."
After a while, a voice came from over there: "Sorry sir, I don't know what you are talking about. We are calling the police. I hope you can understand the seriousness of reporting false alarms. We can't help you." Then the other end of the phone There was a "beep" sound, and the policeman hung up the phone.
He looked outside, and there was no one there.Forget it, don't embarrass him when he's gone.
For the two days of the weekend, Shan Zuo spent it in a daze.
Until Monday, Dan Zuo felt something was wrong, and his eyes seemed to be able to see some other things. Those things were blurry when Shan Zuo took off his glasses, and they were still blurry when he put them on.
At first he thought there was something wrong with his eyes, so he went to the hospital for an examination, but the doctor told him that his eyes were fine and his vision had recovered significantly.Shan Zuo told him again about the blurry things he saw, and the doctor told him that white-collar workers have a heavy workload, don't have enough rest time, the brain is tired, and hallucinations are also possible, so pay attention to rest more.
Shan Zuo believed it. After thanking the doctor, he devoted himself to work the next day.
The company has completed a new project and is going to hold a summary meeting. Shan Zuo sat on the general manager's seat and saw that the heads of all departments have arrived. At 8:01, Tan En, the director of the finance department, came late. She looked like She seemed a little weak and unable to cheer up, but there was a man behind her, wearing a gray suit, with a pale complexion, and his neck stretched forward weirdly like a vulture.
Shan Zuo remembered seeing this man somewhere - he was Tan En's husband.
"Family members are not allowed in and out of the conference room. This is a rule. If Director Tan feels unwell, he can go home and recuperate for a few days." After Shan Zuo said these words, everyone looked at him with strange eyes.When Shan Zuo looked over again, Tan En, the director of the Ministry of Finance who was named, suddenly changed his face again, his face was radiant, and the delicate makeup on his face made her look even more charming, a representative of the standard urban beauty.
"President Shan, I'm not feeling sick. I'm sorry, I was late for one minute due to personal matters."
Shan Zuo immediately realized that these things were blurred in front of his eyes for a few days, and "these things" could not be seen by others.He suddenly felt his hairs stand on end.
He had no choice but to follow Tan En's words: "I won't be held accountable for being late this time, and the next time will not be an example. If there is another time, it will be counted as being late for work."
"Understood, thank you Mr. Shan."
Everyone started reporting to work, only Shan Zuo felt restless because of that thing behind Tan En.He looked towards Tan En from time to time, because Tan En was sitting down, the thing was also bent over, its neck was still stretched forward in a strange posture, and it was close to the back of Tan En's head—as if it was sniffing something. .
Fortunately, everyone is carefully checking the information in their hands and then making a summary report, and no one cares about Shan Zuo's strangeness.
After the meeting, Shan Zuo called Tan En to the office.
"President Shan, what's the matter?" Tan En was trembling, thinking it was because of being late.Say pardon in front of everyone, but still can't escape punishment?People have one face and another, Shan Zongyin shouldn't be such a person.It's also strange recently, I always feel uncomfortable, all of a sudden... that's why I accidentally arrived late...
"The company hasn't held an event for a long time." Just as Tan En was thinking wildly, Shan Zuo suddenly spoke, which made Tan En stunned.
"what?"
"The company should have extra funds. Even if it is for the success of this project, we should organize an employee activity and relax. We need to get rid of Xiao Tan in terms of finances." Shan Zuokanji finished speaking quietly These, in fact, the clothes on the back have already been soaked in cold sweat.Because ever since he and Tan En were alone together when he entered the door, her husband—that thing had been staring at him, and Shan Zuo could feel it, as if countless basins of cold water were pouring from the top of his head to his feet, with a smell chill.Shan Zuo is trying to ignore these things.
"Should be."
"By the way, you can bring your family members to this event. Xiao Tan, please bring your husband. You are usually so busy, you probably don't have time to accompany him!"
Speaking of Tan En's husband, she suddenly seemed a little sad: "My husband passed away a year ago, a car accident." Tan En said, feeling a little teary.
"After you've been busy for a while, Xiao Tan, you can take a vacation, and go...to see your husband." Shan Zuo said.
"Thank you Mr. Shan."
"carry on."
"Well, then I'll go first."
President Shan watched the thing disappear into his office following Tan En's figure.It has feet, but it floats.
"If you see anything strange then, tell me right away." Li Zhengjun's words jumped into Shan Zuo's mind.So this is the strange thing he said?
03
"Are you thinking of me?" The male voice that suddenly appeared behind gave Shan Zuo a big jump, coupled with the double fright of the strange thing just now, Shan Zuo's reaction was to almost jump up, and then after seeing Li Zhengjun clearly, he said that A hanging heart was put down.He changed his clothes.
"How did you show up?"
Teleport.Shan Zuo suddenly remembered. "Why are you here?"
"Don't you miss me? I'm here."
"Who the hell are you? Do you know what that was just now?"
"I said you won't drive me away again, right?"
"No!" Shan Zuo waved his hand, "After seeing that thing, I want to believe your words, can you deal with that thing?"
"Can handle it."
"Then can you give him now... get him out of here, I can see him, and he seems to know that I can see him." Shan left pointing outside, Tan En has returned to her own job No, Shan Zuo's office can't see her.
"En." Li Zhengjun agreed, then went out, and came back from outside after a while, with a black square in his hand.
"Is that all right?"
"Well, he's in the box, would you like to take a look?"
"Need not."
"So you're afraid of this too."
"It's creepy to be seen by them. Is it a ghost? I remember those superstitious people said that ghosts don't come out during the day, and they aren't afraid of the sun?"
In the evening, Shan Zuo asked Li Zhengjun a lot of questions again. This time he finally got something useful. Li Zhengjun said that he would see many such things in the future, and he could deal with them, so he went to The second time he said that he was here to protect himself, it seemed right.And the imprint behind them is the connection between them. If there is something to do with Shan Zuo, Li Zhengjun can be there on call.
"Just think about it in your heart?"
"Hmm." Li Zhengjun walked to the bathroom and said, "Try it." Then Shan Zuo silently said "Li Zhengjun, come to me" in his heart. When he opened his eyes, Li Zhengjun was indeed sitting on the sofa. The process only took a few seconds. If he had walked over, Shan Zuo would definitely have noticed his movement, but he didn't. It was like time-traveling into a fantasy novel. It was so wonderful.
"Aren't you always cold in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and are afraid of the cold?" Li Zhengjun asked him suddenly.
"That's it."
"With your physique, it's easy to recruit those things. They get close to you, suck your breath away, and then you will turn into a corpse."
"What the hell is it?"
"An inhuman soul that did evil in life and became mutilated after death will look for a living person as a host like a parasite."
"I won't be parasitized?"
"Yes, and you are special. They would like to suck your breath and eat your soul."
"That person today—that thing didn't come close to me."
"Because you have my mark on you, he knows that if he gets close to you, he will only die, so he can only stare at you, but he can't eat a big plate of food. These things are much more cunning than people."
"Then... I hope you will protect me in the future, my life is very precious."
Shanzuo's house has two bedrooms and one living room, and the other room is used as a utility room by Shanzuo because no one has ever lived in it, and it will not be tidy up for a while.Didn't even buy a bed at all.So Li Zhengjun said: "Then I will wrong you to sleep on the sofa, or you can sleep with me." He refers to sleeping together in the single left room.
When Shan Zuo wanted to refute and get angry, Li Zhengjun always said: "Being a bodyguard is very tiring, so make sure you have a good rest. I will have nightmares when I sleep on the sofa, and I want to sleep on the bed."
Shan Zuo originally thought about going to the furniture store to buy a bed on the weekend, but he was not used to the sofa at all, and his whole body ached after sleeping all day, so on the second day, Shan Zuo slept back in his room.On the two-meter-wide bed, Shan Zuo used the quilt to make a dividing line. He occupied most of the bed, and Li Zhengjun was squeezed to the edge.
Shan Zuo is afraid of the cold, and he will always unconsciously lean towards something hot.What he hates the most is winter, no matter how thick he wears, the cold wind seems to be alive, drilling into his neckline and sleeves.
In his sleep, he seemed to be walking in a field of ice and snow, his whole body was cold. After walking for an unknown amount of time, he seemed to slowly see the light of a fire, so he walked hard, walked hard, and finally got close to the fire. It turned out that it was a glowing , something soft, he approached it, and hugged it tightly.This dream seemed to be over like this. After that, there was no dream all night, and I woke up until dawn.
As Li Zhengjun said, Shan Zuo began to see more and more of those things. They were dressed in strange clothes, some were even naked, following behind some people, their necks twisted and stretched forward, Shan Zuo looked towards When they were watching them, it was always watching Shan Zuo. When Shan Zuo was startled, Li Zhengjun's name immediately came to mind, and then he would appear immediately. It seemed easy to clean up those things.
"Why did you come to protect me and not others?" After seeing more and more of those things following behind people, Zuo Shan finally thought of this question.This time Li Zhengjun didn't seem to be very happy to answer, he just said: "I am willing."
Afterwards, Shan Zuo still asked this question, and Li Zhengjun always answered vaguely, or simply didn't answer it at all. After a long time, Shan Zuo didn't bother to ask.
04
On April [-]th, everything was no different from usual, the sky was bright and sunny, just like their company, every day was thriving.But at this time Tan En, the director of the Ministry of Finance, suddenly went into shock, and he had already gone west after being sent to the hospital.The cause of death is unknown.The doctor said that the sudden death was not caused by overwork, and they couldn't detect it, because Tan En's body functions were all normal.
Just when my colleagues were lamenting the strangeness of the doctor, Shan Zuo saw Tan En who had been covered with a white cloth and sat up, while Tan En's body on the hospital bed was motionless, Shan Zuo knew that this was her soul.Only then did he remember that Tan En's ex-husband leaned behind her and sucked her breath, which should be the real cause of her death.Afterwards, he asked Li Zhengjun and confirmed his thoughts. Tan En seemed to have died as a matter of course.
Tan's father, Tan's mother, who learned of his daughter's death, held up a sign and made a fuss in front of Shan Zuo's company. Some unscrupulous company forced their young daughter to death.In the past, he had a good time with Tan En and was persuading Tan's father and Tan's mother, but the most troublesome ones were Shan Zuo and the executives.He lost a few pounds because of this.
After a month of trouble, it's finally over.
After work this day, Shan Zuo walked to the company's underground garage to go home, and found a familiar man standing beside his car, wearing a suit and leather shoes.Shan Zuo's memory of this person seems to be a little fuzzy.
If he hadn't spoken first, Shan Zuo would not be able to remember for a while.
"I'm Xia Yuan, don't you remember me?"
After being reminded, Shan Zuo remembered that Xia Yuan's real name was Xia Yun, because his mother wanted a girl so much, so she gave him such a name. Shan Zuo and he used to be neighbors, and they had a good relationship.It is also fate, they are in the same class in elementary school, high school and junior high school.Shan Zuo used to laugh at him because of his name for a long time, saying that a big man named a girl named him. Later, Xia Yun finally pestered his mother to change the name. Others didn't know to call him Xia Yun, only Shan Zuo Zuo always called him Xia Yuan, but he didn't mind.It's just that his grades have always been better than Shan Zuo's. After graduating from high school, he was admitted to a better university, so the two went their separate ways, and their fate ended like this.
"Really, you have changed so much, we haven't seen each other for many years."
"You haven't changed at all, you still have no memory." Xia Yun said. "It's been eight years since high school. The last time I went to your house, I found you weren't there. I asked my uncle and he said he didn't even know where you were. Did you run out of conflict with your family?"
Shan Zuo shook his head: "I just want to show them that I can make a career without them. I heard that you have gone abroad to study. Get in the car first."
Shan Zuo sat in the driver's seat, and Xia Yun then became the co-pilot.
"Now that I've finished my studies, I'm back to work."
"It's amazing, you must be developing in a big company."
"Not as good as you, I'm the general manager."
"This is also what I spelled out with blood and tears. How did you find me?"
"Based on intuition, do you believe it or not? I remember that you said you liked Mingcheng very much, so I came to inquire about it. I didn't expect to find you. Shan Zuo, the general manager of xx company, is really good."
"The seafood here in Mingcheng is good, have you had dinner yet?" Shan Zuo asked Xia Yun.He remembered that Xia Yun used to like seafood.To be exaggerated, they can be regarded as growing up wearing a pair of trousers. Although they have not been in touch for eight years and their appearance has changed a lot, Shan Zuo still remembers what he likes to eat——Xia Yun is not a picky eater, but his most I like to eat seafood, but I can't eat spicy food, and I can accept everything else.
"Not yet. It's rare that Ah Zuo still remembers what I like to eat."
"You are an omnivore, you can eat anything anyway, so it's easy to raise."
Xia Yun laughed loudly, and said jokingly, "Then please, Zuo, let me take care of me in the future."
One second he was still chatting and laughing, but the next second Shan Zuo couldn't laugh - when did he sit in the back seat of his car with "that kind of thing".Shan Zuo could see that the thing's eyes were empty, but those empty eyes looked at him as if they were conveying the message "you will be my dinner soon".Xia Yun seemed to be talking about some interesting things that happened abroad, and Shan Zuo was staring at the rearview mirror.
Li Zhengjun Li Zhengjun Li Zhengjun.He kept calling Li Zhengjun's name in his heart, thinking how he would come so fast at a critical moment.
The thing started to approach Shanzuo, just like other people. It approached the back of his head. Xia Yun didn't notice anything wrong with Shanzuo. He kept talking about what he had seen and heard abroad, but Shanzuo didn't care to listen.That thing was getting better and better thanks to him, but Li Zhengjun never showed up.
In desperation, Shan Zuo had no choice but to grit his teeth and park the car on the side of the road, and got out of the car.Xia Yun called him behind him and asked him what's wrong.Shan Zuo ran as far away from his car as possible, tried one last time when he stepped on a stone and almost tripped, and called Li Zhengjun's name.
The pain didn't come as imagined, because someone caught him - Li Zhengjun finally appeared.
"What's wrong? You ran like this."
After seeing Li Zhengjun, Shan Zuo seemed relieved, but then remembered that Xia Yun had been thrown in the car by him and ran away by himself. Wasn't that monster trying to suck Xia Yun's anger?
He glared at Zheng Jun resentfully, and said, "I'll settle the score with you when I go back."
The second monk Li Zhengjun was puzzled.
As soon as he turned around, he found Xia Yun running after him, looking very worried about him.Seeing that he was not in the car, Shan Zuo was also relieved.
"Ah Zuo. What's the matter?"
"It's okay...I'm here to pick up a friend." Shan Zuo looked at Li Zhengjun.
"Seeing that you ran away in a panic just now, I thought something happened." After speaking, he looked at Li Zhengyun, "My name is Xia Yun, Zuo's friend, and a former classmate and neighbor."
Ah Zuo, you called so intimately.Li Zhengjun secretly disgusted him in his heart. "Li Zhengjun." He announced his name impatiently.The two didn't even shake hands symbolically, Xia Yun didn't extend his hand, and Li Zhengyun just didn't want to shake hands with him either.
"Wait a minute." Shan Zuo said to Xia Yun.Then he pulled Li Zhengjun over and said to him, "There is a monster in the car, go and catch it."
"what?"
"Xia Yuan is here, I won't tell you more, there is that kind of thing in the car, you grab it." Shan Zuo repeated it again, with a sullen tone.Li Zhengyun passed over suspiciously, that thing would never get close to Dan Zuo, even if it did, he would definitely notice it.
When he walked to the side of the car and looked inside, there was nothing, neither the front seat nor the back seat.
He looked at Xia Yun and didn't intend to say more. "come on."
"Where do you live? I'm sorry I can't treat you to dinner today. I'll take you back."
"What's wrong?" Xia Yun asked worriedly, Shan Zuo thought over and over again and decided not to tell Xia Yun about those things.
Seeing that Shan Zuo didn't intend to answer, Xia Yun gave his home address knowingly, Shan Zuo was slightly surprised, "I'm in the same neighborhood as me."
"Really, what a coincidence."
Shan Zuo drove home and took Xia Yun home by the way.
"Would you like to come to my house?" Xia Yun invited Shan Zuo.
"No need, we have something to do when we go home." Li Zhengjun stood in front of Shan Zuo, and Xia Yun had to deal with the trouble in his eyes.
"I'm inviting Ah Zuo..."
"I won't go today, which building does your family live in? I'll bring you food later." Shan Zuo said.
"You have learned how to cook." Xia Yun said with a little surprise.
"A person must learn to take care of himself when he is away, but he cannot starve himself to death."
"Haha, that's right. I live in Building X, 1602."
"Okay, then you just wait, and I'll treat you to dinner another day." Li Zhengjun squinted at Xia Yun all the time. It was strange that he couldn't tell whether this person was a human or a ghost. It was really strange.
"Do you know how to cook?" Li Zhengjun asked him on the way back. During the few months he lived with Shan Zuo, he had never seen him cook.
"I used to sign up for interest classes when I was bored, and then I bought recipes and figured it out myself."
"I think you haven't cooked for me after we've been together for so long. What is that Xia Yuan, you're going to wash your hands and make soup for him just after seeing each other... Hiss..." Li Zhengjun hadn't finished speaking, Shan Left gave him a kick.
