Sick roommate observation notes

Shen Lu actually heard a trace of morbid persistence from the man's words.

He wondered, could it be that his concern for Malcolm Johnson was a bit too much, so much that they had only contacted him once or twice, and the other party had already paid extraordinary attention to him?

When faced with the help of others, an appropriate return means that the person is grateful, and excessive care indicates that the person's personality has begun to deviate.

From a rational point of view, Shen Lu didn't want the man's mental state to become more abnormal, so he didn't want the man to have too much concern or affection for him.

Emotionally, he thinks that all the help he has given these days is just a kind of self-satisfaction. This help makes him feel that his existence has meaning and makes him feel that his life ideals have a chance to be fulfilled, so he would rather It is better for the brown-haired man to be more selfish in the face of help than to be unable to bear the importance of his status just because of one help within his capacity, and instead give him back an excessive emotional burden.

Shen Lu, who had made up his mind to distance himself from the man, couldn't help but sighed, he didn't say anything more about his concern, he just nodded in agreement with the other party's idea and said: "Okay, then we will mainly use text messages to communicate, if there is a need for a face-to-face meeting We will make an appointment at that time."

Hearing the words, the man just responded in a low voice, not sure if he could hear the alienation in Shen Lu's words, but after a while, he heard another weak voice from the other end of the phone: "I'm sorry."

"I met a few gangsters on the road last time. At that time, I thought they were not serious threats, but I was bumped into them again today. They wanted to rob me when they saw that I was alone. The main reason was that I didn't want to stand around It was robbed by them, and they played some tricks to make the police chase after them, and then they were irritated by me," Shen Lu was silent for a moment, and picked out useful information to tell the man, trying to completely clear the man from it, he thought that such a A man would not be so concerned about his injury, "So you don't need to feel guilty, you have nothing to do with this matter."

After Shen Lu finished explaining, the man on the other end of the phone didn't speak again. It wasn't until the doctor brought the operation consent form and urged him to get ready for stitches that Shen Lu had a reason to hang up the phone.

Lying on the operating table under the guidance of the doctor, Shen Lu almost lost consciousness immediately after receiving the anesthetic, recalling the operation process afterwards, he only felt a white light swaying around him, bright but cold, if If there is a revolving lantern in a person's life, it must be exactly the same as this kind of light, he thought.

Shen Lu didn't return home until the effect of the anesthesia was almost gone. He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, staring at himself in the mirror indifferently.

See, occupations related to criminals are indeed dangerous. I just ran into a group of gangsters on the road, and wanted to delay the time until the police came to catch them, and then my head was almost opened by these gangsters.

What qualifications do you have to be with others like this?What qualifications do you have to let others accept yourself who may die at any time?

Shen Lu slowly stretched out his hand to cover the mirror, and the person in the mirror looked at him with a calm and indifferent expression, and stretched out his hand to touch his palm tightly.

Under the double influence of the exhaustion from the pain and the effects of anesthesia, Shen Lu fell asleep very fast that night, but he did not sleep soundly. This night he was dragged into an absurd and weird dream. Among them was a man who should have been dead for many years, wearing a uniform and sitting on a classic and exquisite copper chair. In front of him was a round table wrapped in lace tablecloth. A few well-dressed guests can make for a fun and cozy tea party.

Shen Lu's position was a little far away from the tea table, but he didn't intend to get close to break the leisurely scene, he just stood there watching the person in front of the table, and asked calmly: "I don't hate you anymore, But why can't I forget the pain you caused me?"

His voice was not loud, so these words naturally couldn't reach that person's ears. Shen Lu sighed in frustration after realizing this, and then he felt a breeze blowing over his face, and then gently passing over him. His nose, eyebrows and the wound on his forehead seemed to silently comfort him as a frustrated person.

The next morning, Shen Lu was woken up by the pain from the wound on his head. When he was attacked by the hooligans, he only felt a short burst of sharp pain on his forehead, and then the nerve numbness and pain disappeared, and he didn't feel any pain due to the influence of the anesthetic during the stitches. What kind of pain? After one night, all the pain accumulated for a long time suddenly burst out.

He got up from the bed with his head covered, and after sitting quietly for a while, his eyes scanned the room habitually. The furnishings in the room seemed to be exactly the same as before going to bed last night, but Shen Lu always felt that there seemed to be some subtleties in the room. s difference.

Is it an illusion?

Being attacked by the pain, he has no time to think deeply at the moment, he just complains in his heart that he is too weak, and decides to enroll in a class after the injury is completely healed, to learn self-defense skills.

After making up his mind, he changed his clothes and got up to go downstairs. He just had a few stitches yesterday, and he couldn't eat strong food during this period of time, so he just wanted to cook some porridge and fried tomatoes and eggs to satisfy his hunger.Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the first floor, there would be a smell of food wafting over his nostrils. Shen Lu couldn't help being startled, and walked towards the kitchen with quicker steps. Sure enough, he saw a tall figure busy up and down in the kitchen. The roommate is back.

Qin Qiu was not surprised that Shen Lu suddenly came to the kitchen. He turned his head and showed a gentle smile to Shen Lu: "You sit by the side first, and breakfast will be ready after a while."

Shen Lu opened his mouth in surprise, but for a moment he didn't think of how to reply.

Is his roommate a bit too virtuous?At that moment just now, he almost felt that he had already lived a happy life after getting married and having a lover who cooks!

After accepting one feeding from others, it became logical to accept the second feeding. Shen Lu thanked him and sat down at the dining table, resting his head on his left hand and watching Qin Qiu fill the pot with vegetables. On the plate: "When did you come back?"

"Last night, but you seemed to be asleep when I got home," Qin Qiu replied to Shen Lu without slowing down the movements of his hands at all. He brought all the dishes he had made before to the dining table. On, and then sighed leisurely, "When I was on a business trip, I thought about whether you would not dry your hair well, eat well, and protect yourself well, but I really didn't expect that your head would be smashed by someone. Dong, Sean, honestly, you're a real pain in the ass."

Qin Qiu hit all the three heavy roads in his words. He touched the goosebumps on his arm due to the gentle tone of the other party, and he was a little angry: "Actually, I'm not so worry-free, am I?"

Qin Qiu raised his eyebrows in surprise, his expression seemed to be asking - how could you be so ignorant of yourself?

Shen Lu: "..."

Well, he got it, he got it.

The staple food was soon brought to the dining table by Qin Qiu, which happened to be the porridge that Shen Lu had been thinking about before, and when Qin Qiu also sat down at the dining table, Shen Lu took a mouthful of the porridge with a spoon and put it into his mouth: "How do you feel?" A little salty?"

"Well, you are injured, you must pay attention to controlling the seasoning, but there is no restriction on salty porridge, and it can be an important way to replenish salt these days." Qin Qiu smiled, and then cared about him, "Your How serious is the injury? About a few days to rest at home?"

"I don't know, but the doctor said to stay at home for observation for at least two days," Shen Lu recalled, counting with his fingers how long he had stayed at home since he entered the police station as a consultant, and it was a bit complicated in the end. He said with emotion, "The part-time consultant's time is only one month. After adding the holidays, I spend almost one-third of my days at home. I am almost ashamed to ask the bureau for salary."

Wait, no.

Shen Lu's chatter stopped suddenly, and he pursed his dry lips: "How do you know I'm hurt?"

"I can smell it," Qin Qiu said lightly, "When you come back, your room smells like medicine and alcohol. It might be hard to know if you were injured."

Oh, so I am like a medicine man in the eyes of others, and I can smell medicine everywhere I go?

Shen Lu didn't quite believe the man's words, but he didn't know if it was a psychological effect. At this moment, he really smelled the wound medicine coming from his body, so he couldn't help hesitating for a while.

"By the way, I also brought you a gift from L City, I don't know if you will like it." After eating for a while, Qin Qiu broke the awkward silence, "I put the gift on the coffee table Come on, you can open it at your convenience."

The roommate cooked for him and brought him presents again, Shen Lu couldn't help feeling a little guilty, he just felt that he suspected that the other party's actions should not be done, very not at all.

After the meal, Qin Qiu returned to the room on the grounds that he had inspiration, and Shen Lu was in charge of staying in the kitchen to clean the dishes. Then he sat down at the coffee table and opened the gift Qin Qiu left for him. Inside the gift box were A silver key, the key is small but fine in structure, coupled with the gorgeous LOGO of a certain luxury brand on the box, Shen Lu can guess that the key must be specially ordered for him by Qin Qiu in the store, and the key is also very likely It is made of relatively precious metals.

After receiving an expensive gift, Shen Lu felt that he lacked confidence, and wanted to apologize to his roommate but lost the right time, and immediately fell into a daze whether to accept the gift or not.

And life is so strange sometimes, the more a person wants to create an opportunity to talk to someone, the more likely God will make him unable to even see the other person's figure.

During this day, Shen Lu was restless. He stood in the corridor many times trying to block his roommate who seemed to be angry, but he failed to catch Qin Qiu's shadow.Time passed so quickly that it was time for him to go to bed at night, so he had no choice but to give up besieging his roommate, and instead focused on how to solve the bathing issue.

Shen Lu has the habit of taking a shower before going to bed every day. After he was injured yesterday, the doctor repeatedly told him not to get wet on the wound. In addition, he was too tired after returning home, so he had no choice but to give up the plan to take a shower.But at this moment, since he hadn't showered for a day, he felt uncomfortable all over his body. He just felt that if he didn't wash his body again, he would be so uncomfortable that he couldn't sleep.

The wound on his head should not get wet, and the only two bathrooms in the house do not have a bathtub to use. Subconsciously, Shen Lu wanted to find someone to hold the shower for him. Then he thought about it, there is no one he can find at this time. Is it only Qin Qiu? !

Shen Lu, who hadn't been able to talk to his roommate for almost a day, couldn't help retreating. After thinking for a while, he decided to take care of all the shower procedures by himself, so he went into the bathroom alone, took off his clothes and let his uninjured arm Lift the shower head and shower on your body.The lower body was relatively easy to clean, but when he raised the shower to rinse his neck, the boiling hot water splashed on his forehead, and part of the water wetted the gauze on his head, making him suddenly Shocked by the pain, I couldn't help but swear: "Damn!"

"What's wrong?" Qin Qiu suddenly asked from outside the bathroom. The man's voice sounded worried, "Did you accidentally touch the wound?"

"..." Shen Lu suddenly felt that there was a saying in his heart that he didn't know if he should say it or not.

Brother, why did you ask in such a timely manner!Could it be that you have been standing at the bathroom door and eavesdropping on me taking a shower!
