Wu Xie, see you!

Chapter 17: Under Mount Fuji

In this way, it is enough to go shopping," Xiuxiu said and looked at me, "This is the original words of the lyricist.I think he probably wanted to say, if you can't take it away, why should you be persistent, if you have had a good time, why should you cry.Since grief has no substance, why not pretend it doesn't exist. "

I thought about it for a long time, then smiled at Chao Xiuxiu: "You are so reasonable, I can't refute it."

Who would have thought that I would be sadly motion sick with the beautiful scenery by my side.My stomach was on fire, and I was nauseated with pantothenic acid.When I watched the lake and the sea with everyone, and took the cable car and boat, I swore in my heart that I would never drink alcohol again in my life.What's worse is that after going to the fifth station, I have to walk on a mountain road and go around. As the altitude gradually increased, I even suffered from altitude sickness. To make things worse, my headache felt like it was going to explode, and I wanted to die. .After finally getting to the halfway up the mountain, I was a little disappointed.It's not so beautiful anymore, Mt. Fuji is still good to watch from a distance.

Fortunately, someone named Xiuxiu took a photo for me just now. In the past few days, I asked her to take a photo for me for the first time. On the viewing platform, there is Mount Fuji in the distance.With the blue sky, blue lake and white snow behind me, I accidentally dressed up gorgeously, with a red windbreaker, a white T-shirt, and a black panda. Xiuxiu has good photography skills, and I am still very photogenic.It's just that my face is ugly. Although the glasses have helped to cover the tired eyes, I am trying to endure the discomfort and "force my smile", so I ask Xiuxiu to adjust the effect to cover up this sick look.I don't have any software installed, and I don't know about those filters, but who knows that she can make a poster of a literary film with a single adjustment... The poster is just a poster, at least it looks, I'm fine .

Taking a deep breath, I clicked on WeChat and saw a few messages from Fatty, oh, it turned out that the photo of the stuffy oil bottle posted by the black glasses was deleted, and HYF also prepared a PR draft for this, and asked Fatty to post an official explanation .It’s nothing more than an apology, explaining the reason for deletion and withdrawal, and leaving the opportunity to those who really have dreams. The thoughtful and inspirational writing seems to make people feel good.This photo is really good at doing multiple things with one hand, which makes people have to admire and applaud.It's a good thing that all the troubles are resolved, and the ending is not difficult to predict.

Send or not?Post it.After I came to Japan, I didn’t post a single message or photo. I didn’t feel like I went on a trip. I’m just like a dead person, but Xiaohua “pre-emptively” sent me such a bad thing... I’m actually very good, really !I made a heartfelt smiley face and hit send.

There is a small post office at the fifth station, where you can choose postcards, stamp them with commemorative stamps, put them in the mailbox, and wait for the postman to send your heart to any corner of the world.How many do you buy?I calculated the number in my mind while choosing the pattern of the postcard, and sent it home to my family and colleagues in the company. Even the old couple in the United States, after I clicked into the mailbox to find the email with his address, it was counted. .

How about giving the stuffed oil bottle?

In the end, the address was also written and stamped. Before I started worrying about what to write, I received a WeChat message.

It's a stuffy oil bottle.

A 12-second voice...

The world and I stand still.

I stared at the contact person's name for a long time and kept confirming that it was the Poker Bottle that I noted "Poker Bottle", that's right, but how could it be him?Suddenly looking for me... the moment I regained my ability to think and act, I became nervous, and my heart was beating like a drum.The post office is small and noisy with many people. I pressed the listen button and put the phone close to my ear, but I couldn't hear anything.But with the volume turned up to the maximum, I even blocked my ears, and I almost retracted under the table. I listened to it again, but I still couldn't hear anything.In a hurry, I ran out of the post office, found a quiet place around the corner, listened to it again, and fell silent.

There was indeed nothing, this was a blank speech, he didn't say anything, only a faint sigh could be heard at the end, very light, very light.What is he trying to say?I can't even guess it, but the sigh weighed heavily on my chest.

ask?But……

Are you OK?

I'm very good.

I can't even send out such an ordinary greeting, so what else can I ask.I also sighed.The postcard in my hand does not have too many colors and flowers, and the framing is clean and neat. There are only Mount Fuji, the lake surface and the reflection of Mount Fuji in the lake, and the tone is cold and clear.It had an address, but it was not sent. There was only one sentence written on it, and I put it in my notebook.

It's a pity, I really like this one.

However, who can love Mount Fuji privately...

In the evening, we returned to a forest hot spring hotel at the foot of the mountain to settle in, watched the sunset by the lake, and ate light Hoto noodles.The hot spring is an item not to be missed. I also went there, but I seemed to be more tired after soaking, and fell asleep before eight o'clock.When I was lying on the bed, I received Xiaohua's reply, and I realized what kind of virtue I was that night. Although I didn't believe most of them, I felt that he was exaggerating and slandering me.

As for the specific reason for posting to Moments, he said that when he carried me back to the hotel and entered the door, I leaned on him and said that it was good to know him, and it was lucky to have him.He just wanted to say that for the sake of this sentence, he didn't care about my embarrassing behavior, but I immediately vomited on him, making him sick to death.Finally, when he was tossed until the early hours of the morning, he was extremely angry and wanted to punish me and let me know how powerful he is.

Xiao Hua's tone was sometimes excited and sometimes disgusted, but I knew he wasn't really angry because of this.It's just...he said so much, why didn't he mention you again, Ping?Forget it, I'm really sleepy, and I have to get up early tomorrow to watch the sunrise, so I can't help it.Besides, I've stopped being angry a long time ago, no, it should be said, in fact, I wasn't really angry with him in the first place.

Probably because I went to bed early and soaked in hot soup, I slept very soundly that night and woke up early.When I woke up, it was still dark, I didn't look at the watch, I didn't turn on the light, I just lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling for a while.He obviously didn't think about anything, but his thoughts seemed to have been wandering in the boundless wilderness for thousands of years.I licked my mouth, and felt dry mouth belatedly, and suddenly wanted to drink the tea my grandfather made.He also learned it from a friend in the north, saying that children love to drink.Even with the cheapest jasmine tea with high foam, you only need to add a small spoonful of sugar, which is better than all kinds of soda drinks. Let it cool down until it is slightly warm. When I come back sweating profusely, I drink it in one go with the cup in my mouth. A piece of jasmine petals is often stuck on the top.That was the sweetest taste of my childhood.

I took out my phone and checked the time. It was 2:46, and we had to gather at four o'clock to watch the sunrise.I got up to wash, packed my luggage, put on a coat, put on my headphones and wanted to go outside and breathe the fresh air in the mountains.The vending machine sells oolong tea. I bought a can and drank half of it in one go. I can’t say it’s not good... It’s just that some temperature and taste have been deeply baked into my life.

The light from the mobile phone illuminates patches of mist in the forest, misty and illusory, and I can't help but wonder if I am sleepwalking.I didn't wake up until I sat down by a faint street lamp by the lake and lit a cigarette.In the gap between the songs in the earphones, I can feel the silence around me is terrible, and the lake is pitch black, like a monster that can devour me at any time.I wondered why I was so bold all of a sudden, shouldn't I be afraid of the dark?Or, am I really dreaming?

"Who brews a pot of tea on the cliff to warm up the concerns of the previous life? And I am adjusting the time difference of thousands of years, drinking all my love and hatred..." A desolate and sad high-pitched female voice came from the earphones, matching the scene at this time, singing my love Got goosebumps all over, shut it down quickly.But after it was turned off, there was another deafness-like silence.However, it was precisely because of the excessive silence and wearing earphones that I could hear that the voice of Poker Bottle was not completely blank. There was a faint sound of music, but the sound was too soft and too soft. It's lighter than that sigh, if it's there or not, you can't tell why.

What are you listening to?There was music... where would it be?Will there be music in the office?But judging by the time, it can't be in the car, yes, he definitely can't drive the car with his hands like that, definitely not in the car.He can't drive a car, so how does he commute to get off work every day?The injury is on the right hand, and how do I eat, work, shower and wash my face... Wait, where do I have so many questions, what are these useless things to do...

The mountain wind was wrapped in moisture, and it was very cold. I seemed to have sat for too long, and began to tremble unconsciously, and a long piece of soot fell to the ground like this.When I drank the last half can of oolong tea, my heart also became cold.It would be nice to have a cup of hot tea at this time.Suddenly, the sound of jingling bells was heard not far away, and a black cat came over with a copper bell hanging around its neck. It stopped one meter away to spy on me carefully, and then lay there with its paws up, squinting its eyes. .Is it cold too?I want to tease it to come and touch it, but there is nothing to give it, nothing to eat and drink, and I am also very cold, and I can't even give it a warm touch.

After a while, there were several meows from the direction of the hotel entrance.The black cat opened its eyes at once, sat up, looked there, its eyes were piercing, and suddenly ran towards that side with a "jingle bell", disappeared into the darkness, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.I really laughed, so they were waiting for a girlfriend?Alas, what's the point of staying here alone, so I patted my butt and went back.

After watching the sunrise and having breakfast, we set off to Fuji-Q Highland.Xiuxiu took me to challenge some of the most famous and exciting rides, screaming and laughing together.I bought two photos of our distorted expressions and gave her one, looking at and laughing at each other on the way back to Tokyo.

In fact, I didn't want to play at first, but yesterday I was hungover, motion sickness, and altitude sickness. I was afraid that I would vomit it at high altitude before I got down.But for some reason, it was Xiuxiu's request, and I couldn't bear to refuse her as soon as she acted like a baby.I found that I wanted to treat her well and make her happy in my heart, not because of love between men and women, nor sympathy.I can't tell, it's as if when she is happy, all the unhappy people in the world will become happy together.It also seems that I am making up for something in this way... In short, only in this way can I feel at ease.

It was afternoon when we returned to Tokyo.Thankfully, I still remembered to contact Xiaohua after I settled in.He has half an hour free from 06:30 to [-]:[-], so we can meet and bring me gifts in person.But because the time is too short, we can only make an appointment in Shinjuku, near his company.The restaurant that Xiaohua booked asked me to bring my close colleagues and charge it directly to his account without saving him money.How could I be polite to him, I agreed right away, so I don't have to worry about what Xiuxiu and I will have for dinner.

It was less than 03:30 when we went out, so we could take a stroll, then went to Shibuya and Ginza to take a look around.Considering that they had to go to the restaurant before 06:30, the two walked in a hurry along the way.At five o'clock, we arrived in Shinjuku, and it turned out that Xiuxiu and I had the same goals but seemed to be inconsistent... She first accompanied me to Kabukicho for a quick eye-opening, and then I accompanied her to some [-]-chome.In the end, I didn't expect that Erchome was really an eye-opener!I really don't understand why she is always so obsessed with... gay men!I felt uncomfortable all over, I wanted to follow her with my eyes closed, and pretended to be calm and "talking and laughing happily".Just when I was glad that Xiuxiu had finally seen enough and was about to leave, she suddenly stopped at the intersection, looked up at the street sign, raised her phone to take a picture, and then took a selfie.

I found a smoking place to smoke, and Xiuxiu kept her head down and fiddled with her mobile phone next to me, she didn't speak, she was quite attentive.When I was about to finish my cigarette, she put down the phone, exhaled with relief, and agreed.I asked her what was okay, she said everything was fine, everything was fine, and thanked me, which made me confused.It wasn't until I entered the restaurant that Xiaohua booked and sat down firmly, and I found time to surf the Internet, that I realized.

"'It turned out that I was unhappy, but I was the only one who didn't notice it.' Goodbye [-]-chome, I will return to China tomorrow, goodbye... [wink]" The accompanying picture is a street sign of "Shinjuku [-]-chome", and the traffic light next to it is on At the red light.One is Xiuxiu's selfie.I don't know if it's because she put on makeup today, but she looks a little different from the previous few days. Her calm smile seems to tell everything, and everything seems to be empty. Her slightly curved eyes are gentle and clear. It's because I saw her in recent days. One of the best expressions.I didn't reply anything, just liked it.

It was also a coincidence that Xiaohua came. Xiuxiu and I had just finished our miso soup and were about to start eating.He didn't greet us when he came, he just nodded at Xiuxiu, put down a beautifully packaged box, said it was a gift for my parents, then sat down cross-legged, grabbed my chopsticks and said that he was hungry and wanted to eat first. Pad two.I think he and Xiuxiu have met before, and they didn't introduce anything too politely, but were just surprised that Xiao Hua was reincarnated from a starving ghost?

"Are you..." I looked at him who was wolfing down and asked, "Have you no food for a while?"

"Yes," he ate non-stop, and he had the ability to answer me, "I'm sure I won't be full. I'll take a few mouthfuls first, don't worry."

"...Why am I in a hurry. Do you have a party at night? Drinking?"

"Blind date." Xiaohua said lightly.

"Blind date?!" I was taken aback, I was only too young to go on a blind date!Besides, it's not the master who can't find a daughter-in-law, so what's the hurry?

At this moment, Xiuxiu cleared her throat, put down her chopsticks, said she was going to the bathroom, and asked the waiter to bring me the chopsticks.I focused all my attention on Xiaohua, and said thank you without thinking too much.Instead, Xiaohua raised her eyes to look at her "in the midst of her busy schedule", until Xiuxiu walked out of the room.

"Why, my blind date is very fresh?" Xiaohua also put down her chopsticks, and gave them back to me, wiping her hands and mouth, "I arranged for them at home, gentle and virtuous, talented and so-and-so's daughter, and so on. Set up, go deal with it."

"...you are still not satisfied with this condition?" Should I also raise the torch and shout "burn it?"

"Family and business marriages are like this, you understand. It's boring, and you can't offend them. It's very troublesome. Besides, I don't like Japanese girls. You like you to go for me?"

"Okay." I smiled, as if I really took advantage of it.At this time the waiter knocked on the door to deliver the chopsticks, and the new chopsticks were given to Xiaohua, and he immediately started eating again.

"Wu Xie, to be honest..." He glanced at the door and lowered his voice, "I think Huo Xiuxiu is pretty good."

I was shocked when I heard that, did Xiaohua fall in love with Xiuxiu?love at first sight?Xiaohua took a sip of my tea, and continued mysteriously: "It's quite suitable for you, do you have a boyfriend? If not, you might as well act first." Choked on me.

"I never thought about that, thank you."

"It's not too late to think about it now. I think she treats you well."

"You don't understand the situation, she doesn't like mine."

"Just because you don't like it now doesn't mean you won't like it later."

"The point is that I don't like her either!"

After I finished speaking, Xiaohua's face darkened, she glanced at me, and then smiled again. "You need to be in good shape, pure and lovely, considerate, smart, know how to behave in the world, and have a common language in an industry..." He glanced at me, "Are you not satisfied with this condition?"

I laughed twice: "You were deceived by her pure and lovely appearance, but she is actually two years older than me."

Xiaohua looked at me like a monster: "What's wrong with being two years old? A third-year girl is still holding a gold brick, and you don't like it because of that?"

"No, no, I was just joking..." I was sweating a little, and I couldn't laugh or cry, I didn't know what happened to Xiaohua suddenly, "I really don't like it, if I wanted to like it, I would have liked it a long time ago. You said that we are definitely not going to play, if you think she is good, or you..."

"Pa", unexpectedly before I finished speaking, Xiao Hua suddenly put down her chopsticks, looked up at me, and smiled: "Then who are you playing with? That stuffy oil bottle?" Her tone was a bit contemptuous.

"..." I was dumbfounded at the time, I couldn't move my mind, "Why do you..." I wanted to ask him how he knew he was bored, didn't he pay back the oil yesterday, Ping... No, listen This means that it is as simple as knowing that there is such a person as Boyouping!

I thought I would be nervous, afraid of hearing what he said next, and afraid of things being revealed, but now my heart is extremely calm, and the only thing I care about is what is going on.It's weird, isn't it?I haven't been in touch with Poker Ping for so long, and there is no third person who knows about our affairs. The only person who may know something is the black glasses.My mobile phone has no signal, and the number stored in my contacts is also 10086... How did Xiaohua know?

"Wu Xie, just grow up a little bit, can you?" Xiao Hua suddenly stood up and looked down at me with excitement, "I wanted to save you some face and let you think about it yourself. I understand, but looking at your heartless virtue, I can't hold it anymore! Do you think I am really angry when I post on Moments, and you embarrass me and spit on me? I think you are worthless! How celestial is Ping, who played so embarrassingly for our little third master? I didn’t realize how naive I was until I received his WeChat. I also said, how can you save a sleeping man in your mobile phone? .Wu Xie, I really didn't expect, I haven't seen you for a few years, you are so talented!"

My whole body shivered when I heard his words. "WeChat? What WeChat!" I stood up awkwardly, ignoring my sore legs after "sitting on the floor", and then thought of getting my phone.Impossible, impossible, there is only that one voice in our communication records.

"Don't look for it," Xiaohua looked at me coldly, and snorted, "I don't want you to know, but can I keep it for you to see?"

"You deleted it?" I was still puzzled, even if the record was deleted, the location of the contact should be in the front, right... Wait, I quickly ran through my mind from turning on the phone yesterday until I received a boring message at the fifth station. During this period of time, I realized that I didn't pay attention to this at all!

"What did you say?" Looking at Xiaohua's attitude, I faintly sensed that things might be quite bad, and I was a little anxious, and my heart was filled with anger, and I took a step towards him and approached him, "What did you tell him! what happened!"

"You really want to know?" Xiaohua looked at me, and suddenly put on a special "professional" smile.Unlike my anxious reaction, he calmed down, and even his voice became softer and softer. "Oh, forget it, anyway, this is the end of the matter... He sent a video call, I answered it, didn't say anything, he took a look at me and hung up, and then I found out that this is Poker Bottle... ..." Xiaohua snorted, looked up at me again, stared into my eyes, said every word, her tone was calm, without any ups and downs, but extremely cold, "I will send him a message to tell him to get out, stay away from you Son, roll as far as you can, don't come to harass you again."

"..." At that time, I felt a "buzz" in my head, and then I was angry, especially angry. "Why are you flipping through my phone! Who told you to tell him that!" I dropped the phone, but still felt that there was nowhere to vent, "What do you know! You don't know anything! Why do you..."

It wasn't until I heard a cry of "Wu Xie" and someone ran over and grabbed my hand, that I came back to my senses and realized that "losing my mind" was like this.Before I knew it, I was already grabbing Xiaohua's collar with one hand and raising my fist with the other, and the person holding my hand was Xiuxiu, she was panicked, asking Wu Xie what are you doing!

Xiao Hua still had the same smile, but her brows were frowning, and her eyes were full of "unbelievable" and "disappointed".I saw it in my eyes, but didn't feel anything. I just gritted my teeth and let go of Xiuxiu, picking up the phone to have a look.The screen is not broken, it can still be on, hehe, who said that the fruit machine can't help but fall.

I picked up the backpack in the corner. "You don't care about my affairs from now on." After speaking, she walked towards the door, regardless of Xiuxiu calling me behind her, and Xiao Hua's tone of saying "Wake up, Wu Xie!"

Although I don't know why Poker Ping suddenly sent a video communication, and I don't know all the details, but I don't care about it unexpectedly.Maybe it's because I didn't have time to take care of it, because my whole body seemed to be wrapped in plastic wrap, every breath was heavy, and my steps were extremely difficult.

As night fell, I walked aimlessly like a wandering soul, I didn't know where I went, strange street corners, surrounded by strangers I didn't know.I sat down by a tree by the side of the road, holding my mobile phone, watching them hurry.Although it was too loud and I couldn't hear anything, I played Pokerfing's voice over and over again, saying sorry in my heart... Realizing that this kind of thing can't even be explained or apologized, I suddenly felt so helpless.

The weather was hot and humid, and it seemed that it was going to rain again. The low air pressure made my chest ache, as if my heart was being held tightly by someone's hand.I hugged myself and shrunk into a ball, until someone patted my shoulder, I was startled, and quickly raised my head.It turned out to be an auntie, she asked me with concern: "Dear man ですか?" I could understand this sentence, tried to smile at her, and replied to her like the rote conversation mode in a textbook: "Big man." Said thank you.

I'm fine, I'm fine, don't worry.But... am I really okay?

Back at the hotel alone, I took a shower and wanted to sleep for a while.I just went to bed when I heard someone knocking on the door. I knew who it was, wrapped up my bathrobe and went to open the door.

"When did you come back?" Xiuxiu breathed a sigh of relief, but also looked a little angry. I knew she was concerned.

"It's been a while since I came back. I'm such an adult and I can lose it. Can I come in and sit?" I smiled at her.

"No, I have to go back and pack my things. We will gather at nine o'clock after breakfast tomorrow. Don't get up late."

"Oh, I see."

"By the way, don't close the door, wait for me."

"what?"

I was still in a daze, but Xiuxiu turned her face away and ran away.Soon, I turned around and boiled a pot of water, and just tore open the tea bag, she came back again. "You forgot to take it." What she held in her hand was a gift carefully wrapped in a beautiful furoshiki, and I just remembered that I forgot something.

The room echoed with the sound of water tumbling in the kettle, and then the power was automatically cut off with a "click".I picked up the pot and poured it into the cup. "Oh, trouble, put it on the table for me. By the way, you later..."

"I wanted to chase you, but I was caught. He gave me this and asked me to bring it to you, and then he left in a hurry. If I go out again, I won't be able to find you." I haven't finished yet, Xiu Xiu opened his mouth and said a lot.

"Do you want to drink it? I put sugar in it, and I didn't notice that there was jasmine tea in the hotel yesterday." I handed her the cup in my hand.It could be seen that Xiuxiu was holding back her doubts, and she swallowed hard, saying: "I'm hot now, don't drink, go back to take a bath, bye."

"Okay, bye then."

After Xiuxiu left, I closed the door, picked up the bundle and touched it. The silk was smooth and the embroidery was exquisite.I sat on the bed with it in my arms, and untied the knot. Inside was a very shiny black lacquer wooden box with reddish-black lacquer. I opened it again and saw two bowls and two pairs of chopsticks, which had the same color and texture as the box. , also lacquerware, is painted with a golden albizia flower pattern.The beam of the bedside reading lamp hits the top and shines brightly. It is so delicate and beautiful that I can't take my eyes off it.Looking carefully, the chopsticks and the bottom of the bowl were actually engraved with my father's and my mother's names, one set for each person, and a common date was engraved... I almost forgot that their wedding anniversary was coming soon.There is also a card in the box: "I wish my uncles and aunts happiness forever - Xie Yuchen".

I buried my face deeply in my hands, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Wu Xie, you are a fucking bastard!

The next day, I finally hoped to board the plane, taxi, and take off.When the plane left the ground, I thought I could breathe a sigh of relief that the physical and mental exhaustion of this week was finally over, but unexpectedly, my mood became even heavier.
