Strange disease

I walked out of the community and found that there was no place for me in this huge world.

Today is a working day, and big cities are always bustling and lively no matter what time of day it is.

My dad had an accident on the construction site when I was 16 years old. My mom dragged me to university alone. Unfortunately, she passed away when I was still alive and went underground to accompany my dad.

Since then, I have been alone in this strange city with no relatives or reasons.

I'm not the kind of character who is good at socializing, not to mention that after graduating from university, the circle is already small, and the friends who grew up together have long since gone away and lost contact.

There were cars coming and going on the main road. I wanted to take a taxi, but I was worried that I would frighten the driver. Besides, Xi Rong didn’t know where my bankbook was. I found three hundred dollars from the top of the kitchen cabinet. Zero two yuan and fifty cents of private money, unexpectedly, has not been discovered by Xi Rong so far.

As for why I secretly hid my private money in my own home, that's a long story.

Speaking of which, the loan was not paid off when I died, and Xi Rong helped me pay half of the down payment for the house. Of course, we were on the same house book. After I died, I had no children, relatives or other heirs. The house should belong to him, but he has to help me pay off the mortgage every month.

Before I left, I thought about it and took the [-] yuan and [-] cents in cash, thinking that it would be more convenient if I needed to take the subway.

But a total of more than 300 yuan, a taxi seems too extravagant.

I wandered towards places where there were few people.

It's strange, I have seen the human world countless times when I was alive, but now I look at the plants and trees on the roadside, even the gray unfinished building next to my house looks very fresh.

So I simply shook my mind slowly, counting wherever I went, feeling quite happy.

It's been a long time since I died before I went out for a walk, and now I still have the opportunity, it's really a big profit.

I used to walk very fast and habitually bow my head, and I was ridiculed many times. He said that sooner or later I would bump into a telephone pole and become a fool.

I said that at least I wouldn't fall into the smelly ditch because I stepped on the empty manhole cover.

We were often like this at the beginning, when he said something to me, I had to contradict him.

After my mother passed away, I almost lost my mind in grief. I was in a daze. When someone asked me a question, I had to react for three seconds before I could answer it.

How to send the dead away with dignity is actually a complicated process. I was completely immersed in grief at that time, and I didn't understand it at all.

Later, Xi Rong helped me with all cremation and funeral matters.

It wasn't his job.

But at that time, I thought it was because he felt sorry for me, because he was incompetent and failed to cure my mother, so he compensated me in every possible way.

In fact, I don't like him, and it's not because of this. Everyone has a destiny, and I understand it.

I just hate his indifferent look, as if he has never had any emotional fluctuations.

At that time, I was young and had a stubborn temper. He helped me a lot after busy work, and I didn't even say thank you.

and after?

How did we get to... this step.

I thought about it, and realized that without knowing it, I ran to the hospital where Xi Rong worked.

The familiar white exterior wall stood majestically in front of me. Doctors and nurses in white coats came in and out, and I hurried to hide by the door.

On the one hand, it is because of my relationship with Xi Rong, and on the other hand, I am a frequent visitor. I know many doctors and nurses in this hospital, and I dare not be discovered by them.

I found a hidden corner to squat and sit halfway. This angle is very good. People in the hospital can't find me, but I can always see who comes out of the gate.

I hid there like a dry rock, my mind empty.

I don't know how long it took, about a whole afternoon passed, the sun sank, the street lights came on, and night fell. I quickly caught Xi Rong, who had changed back into a black uniform, coming out of the hospital building.

I immediately hid in the alley by the side of the road and saw him passing by. At a certain moment, his sharp profile slipped in front of my eyes. There was no expression on the face with the cold gold-rimmed glasses. It's like a glacier that hasn't melted for years.

After I confirmed that he was far away, he crept out. At the end of the road, his back melted into the blurred night of the city.

I kept a safe distance not too close, and quickly followed him.
