The Midnight Owl

Owl, the sound is the same as "Xiao". There is only one word in the dictionary, "Owl". There are many kinds of birds with big head, short and curved beak, and owl is one of them.

After confirming the online dictionary, the true colors of the "cuckoo" sounds at midnight surfaced.

That is the cry of an owl, and it is also the reminder to open the "Magic Moment".

The night will pass, the east will turn white, and life will always return to the right track.

Sun Jiang is an instructor at a driving school. There are still students attending class today, so he was the first to get up and say goodbye. In other words, the owner of the restaurant took good care of him, so it is no problem to ask for another day off, but in fact, they have nothing to do except wait for the night, so under the persuasion of Wu Sheng and Xu Wang, Kuang also obediently returned to the internship post.

After sending the two away, Xu Wang naturally turned his attention to Wu Sheng, and euphemistically passed the "exit order." From the heart, he certainly hoped to spend more time with Wu Sheng, but from the rational point of view, he clearly understood This kind of getting along has no benefit but no harm, so don't deceive others and yourself.

Wu Sheng received the gaze, but did not intend to execute it. Instead, he stood up eager to "enhance the reunion feeling": "Would you like to show me around?"

Without outsiders, Xu Wang was not polite, and slapped him to death directly: "It's not a museum, what a fart to visit." And there is a room and a living room, and the living room can be seen at a glance, and the rest is only the bedroom.All visits to the bedroom not for the purpose of sex are hooligans!

"Why do you have such a big reaction? Or..." Wu Sheng raised his eyebrows maliciously, the more he refused to let him see, his eyes drifted towards the bedroom, "Is there really something shady inside?"

Xu Wang was speechless for a while, stared at him with itchy teeth for a long time, and squeezed out a sentence: "Why are you still so annoying after ten years?"

Wu Sheng glanced at him, it was still the formula from back then, and it was still the same dislike from back then: "It sounds like you've made great progress."

The two are Mr. Wang and Mr. Yu. There is only one difference between them, and they are proficient in each other's dark history, so when they are fighting each other, no one can hope to win an overwhelming victory. .

After realizing this by coincidence, the two died down and entered a short spring.

However, after chatting recently, Wu Sheng questioned his old classmate's professional statement: "A real estate consultant?"

Xu Wang stubbornly raised his neck: "Is there a problem?"

Wu Sheng leaned back on the sofa, raised his legs, and smiled politely while holding a water glass: "Sell the house."

Xu Wang narrowed his eyes: "Then what kind of industry do you, an old man who returned to China to start a business, join in?"

Wu Sheng took a sip of water unhurriedly: "Software development."

Xu Wang nodded: "Code farmer."

Wu Sheng took a sip of water stuck in his throat.

Xu Wang also raised Erlang's legs, his little feet shaking happily.

Strange to say, since we haven't seen each other for ten years, it's like going back to high school when we open our mouths to confront each other.Xu Wang thought, maybe when it was time to get acquainted, he was just running around and fighting with bears, so he missed all opportunities for greetings and politeness, and directly entered a new chapter of "we are still good classmates".

It was high in the sun, Xu Wang looked at his phone, if he didn't go to catch the subway, he would really be absent from work, so he didn't beat around the bush, he just slapped his thigh, got up to see off the guests: "Okay, where should you go back, I have to go to work too. "

Wu Sheng looked at him in astonishment, as if this kind of behavior was very incomprehensible: "Sun Jiang goes to work because he has a wife and children to support, and when he goes to work, the internship unit is related to appraisal and evaluation. You don't have to support a family, and you don't have to graduate. Such a big incident happened. Not to mention sitting down and planning a countermeasure, and going to work?"

As soon as Xu Wang heard this tone of standing and talking without back pain, he wanted to whip someone with the soles of his shoes: "I don't need to raise a family, but a single dog can't live on the northwest wind. It won't die if you pop out of the owl, but if I If you don't go to work, you will really die."

When I asked for leave yesterday, my boss was already unwilling to ask for it. I will ask again today, unless he intends to pack up and leave.

"Forget it, it doesn't make sense with you rich people." Xu Wang waved his hand and quickly ended the topic.After all, he felt like he was selling miserably.

Wu Sheng frowned, innocent and wronged: "How did I become a rich man..."

Xu Wang rolled his eyes, got up and went to the bedroom to change clothes, unwilling to talk to him anymore.

At the class reunion two years ago, he had heard from a classmate who was sent back to the United States that Wu Sheng was very successful in Silicon Valley, and he earned his first pot of gold not long after graduating from university. Minutes will match Zuckerberg's posture.

Although the classmate's description was extremely exaggerated, the envy in his eyes could not be deceived. Being envious showed that he really thought that Wu Sheng was much better than himself.And this classmate who has been stationed abroad all the year round is considered to be a hardworking student among their high school classmates. He is less than [-] years old and already has an annual salary.

Xu Wang, who came out of the bedroom in a suit and leather shoes, found that Wu Sheng was still sitting on the sofa, not intending to move a bit, and even Erlang's legs were curved like before, completely convinced: "What on earth are you thinking, I really plan to stay here gone?"

Wu Sheng was stunned when he saw his brand-new outfit, and stared blankly for a long time, with an inexplicable light shining in his eyes.

Seeing Xu Wang felt uncomfortable, he purposely shouted loudly: "Hello——"

Wu Sheng blinked his eyes, finally came back to his senses, and quickly lowered his head to get the water glass: "Ah, that, I have already said hello to my partner, and I won't go to the company today."

Xu Wang frowned at first because he didn't understand why he was reaching for an empty cup, but then the frown became deeper and deeper, it was all because of his words: "You mean you want to stay with me for a day? !"

Wu Sheng raised his head and drank water for a long time, only to realize that there was no water in the glass, and pretended to put it down, and then slowly raised his head, his face was already righteous: "Your life is important, so I can only sacrifice it, there must be someone Go think about what to do with the owl."

"You can think about it in another place."

"I have no place to live in Beijing."

"fart!"

"No fart."

"..."

During the three years of high school, Xu Wang's winning rate against Wu Sheng has been stable at 50%. Now that everyone is an adult, after ten years of different situations, Xu Wang found sadly that his winning rate seemed to have dropped.

"Don't look through my things," Xu Wang stood outside the door, and issued a death order to Wu Sheng who saw him off in the hallway, "If I find out..." He narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Break the relationship."

Wu Sheng nodded, with unprecedented sincerity and solemnity.

Well, there are definitely secrets in the bedroom.

The anti-theft door slammed shut tightly.

Xu Wang sighed lamely at himself, drooping his head and waiting for the elevator.

Wu Sheng stroked his chin and looked at the perfectly fitted bedroom door, filling his brain with countless ulterior things.

There are thousands of thoughts inside and outside the door.

When Xu Wang squeezed into the subway, Wu Sheng, who had been struggling in front of the bedroom door for almost half an hour, received a call from his partner. The program he was developing encountered a technical problem. Several engineers couldn't solve it, so he had to turn to him. This research and development director and half of the BOSS came out.

Wu Sheng sighed into the phone, the little joy that had just accumulated was disturbed: "You are also the boss, can't you solve this small problem by yourself?"

The tone on the other end of the phone suddenly rose: "Small problem? If I can solve this small problem, I won't invest the same money as you but only take three shares, and I'll give you seven."

Wu Sheng was at a loss for words.

As the famous saying goes, the greater the shareholding, the greater the responsibility.

"Let Xiao Mu send me my notebook, and I'll send you the address later."

"Can't you go back to the company? What is so important that you can't leave?"

"No key."

"what?"

"I don't have a key, so I can't leave. Once I leave, I can't come in again."

Silence on the other end of the phone.

After a long time, Wu Sheng heard his partner ask: "Aren't you doing something illegal..."

The notebook was delivered quickly, but the so-called "minor problem" was not easy to solve, and it was already two o'clock in the afternoon when it was completely settled.Wu Sheng sent the data back to the company, forgetting about the bedroom, glanced at the time, and opened the external network non-stop...

Xu Wang has been restless all day long, always afraid that the things in the bedroom will reveal his secrets, so he can only comfort himself over and over again, that it's okay, and he broke up with him after he said he turned over the things, Wu Sheng didn't dare.

I don't know if it's because I thought too much over and over again, and I slept so deeply during my lunch break that I even had a vague dream.In the dream, Wu Sheng stood in the middle of his bedroom, holding a box-shaped trophy, like a Marvel villain holding a Rubik's Cube.

Perhaps it was the extreme unlucky these two days, bottomed out and rebounded, and a client cultivated in the early stage came to sign the contract in the afternoon.Originally, Xu Wang was not the one who received him today, but the client pointed out that he would patiently introduce various floors and apartment types to him a few days ago, and Xu Wang, who also looked forward to the future development of the surrounding area in a practical way, and the first sign was the largest apartment type in the real estate .

If this set is sold, more than 2 yuan will be raised, and the amount will be recorded in the total performance, which is directly linked to the performance at the end of the year and the year-end bonus.

Riding the spring breeze of this order, Xu Wang swept away his previous fatigue and worries, and left work in good spirits, and he was particularly high-spirited when he squeezed the subway.

When he arrived at the door of the house, Xu Wang couldn't tell what was going on in his mind. He was very careful from getting the key to opening the door. Those who didn't know thought it was someone else's house and he was here to be a thief.

After opening the door and entering the hallway, it was very quiet. If it wasn't for the faint light from the neon lights outside the window, he almost didn't see Wu Sheng on the sofa.

The man was sitting on the sofa, sleeping soundly with his head tilted. On the coffee table was a notebook that Xu Wang had never seen before. The screen was flickering slightly cold. I don’t know if it was because Wu Sheng had just fallen asleep or the computer itself was canceled. Sleep mode is enabled, so even if there is no operation, the screen is still bright.

Tiptoing to the sofa, Xu Wang bent down slightly, taking a serious look at this guy for the first time since they met again.

The eyes, nose, and mouth really haven't changed much, and the smile is still as attractive as before.Romance, this is the definition of Wu Sheng's appearance that Xu Wang arbitrarily defined in high school, although the latter has never been in a relationship for three years in high school.

The breath, following Xu Wang's peeping, spilled onto Wu Sheng's eyelashes.I don't know if it's real or an illusion, but the eyelashes trembled suddenly.Feeling guilty, Xu Wang quickly straightened up and pretended to look elsewhere.

This photo was scanned to the screen of the laptop.

The screen was full of English, Xu Wang gnawed from top to bottom for a long time, and finally gnawed out the two most frequently occurring words - MULTIVERSE, PARALLELUNIVERSES.

Xu Wang recognized the word "universe", so he took out his mobile phone and searched online for an online translation. As a result, the first word was "multiverse", and the second phrase was "parallel universe".

Xu Wang didn't do any research on these profound questions, but after watching too many sci-fi movies, and after contacting the experiences of the past two days, he probably understood what Wu Sheng was looking for.

He is really researching, not just talking about it.

When you encounter a problem, you must be tough. There is absolutely no word "go around" in the dictionary-Wu Sheng had such a temper ten years ago.

Going back to the bedroom lightly, the first thing Xu Wang did after closing the door was not to turn on the light to change clothes, but to turn on the light to look in the closet.He patted his chest reassuringly and exhaled slowly until he confirmed that there was no sign of a box placed in the deepest corner of the wardrobe.

"What are you looking for from rummaging through boxes and cabinets?" came the inquiry from the door, with a subtly rising tone.

Xu Wang's scalp went numb, and he immediately closed the closet door with a "bang", raised his head to meet Wu Sheng's probing eyes, and tried his best to let himself exude a sacred and inviolable righteousness from head to toe: "I'm looking for clothes to change, you don't care What! Also, this is my home, can you knock on the door before you come in!"

Wu Sheng leaned against the door frame with his hands folded, and looked at him leisurely: "I knocked, but you may be too involved in sneaking, so you didn't hear it."
