Yin Yang ferry

When the car drove to the barbecue stand, He Shu's breath had not yet disappeared, but his taste was already filled with smoke all over the sky.

Choking people, but also with a strong aroma.

It has a meaty aroma and a hint of spice, and gourmets can even distinguish cumin, pepper, or star anise.

This is the unique scenery of Supper and Snack Street, which attracts everyone who comes close to it.

In the middle of the night, other parts of the city fell asleep, only here was still in full swing, and the show was halfway through.

It was the first time for Guanghan to come here.

He followed behind He Shu, watching the other party go to a familiar stall to order with the boss, proficient without even looking at it, he directly reported the name of the dish he wanted, and then turned around to ask himself.

"what did you eat?"

"Whatever." Guanghan said.

He really isn't a picky eater.

Or, he doesn't pay much attention to appetite.

Even the habit of eating on time was developed after moving into He Shu's house.

But He Shu is a foodie, he must eat supper at night, four meals a day, except for the occasional morning when he can't get up, he basically doesn't fall behind.

Not to mention that bird, it was unconditional to follow Guanghan in the past, once it has the conditions, it can explode an amazing ability to cook food, eat too much food in the world, and even the appetite for jade has become smaller.

It's certainly not good for it, but who can say no to good food?

The first plate of skewers was served quickly.

The oily meat is whitish, roasted until it is browned on the outside and soft and tender on the inside, sprinkled with cumin and white sesame seeds, and the aroma bursts from the nose into the throat, as if it has entered the stomach before eating.

Everyone knows how to grill skewers, but to get repeat customers, it is a test of the seller's skill in mastering the heat.

The marinade of the meat is also very important. It must be tasty, and the spices must not overwhelm the aroma of the meat itself.

"Eat, what are you doing in a daze, you're welcome, I can still afford a skewer!"

He Shu picked up a bunch by himself and put it horizontally by his mouth. As soon as he pulled out the bamboo sticks in his teeth, all the meat went into his mouth, his cheeks were full, and he felt a sense of happiness that he wanted nothing more.

Looking at the other guests, it seems that they are similar to him.

Guanghan picked up a bunch and imitated him.

The taste is indeed good, but it doesn't seem to be so amazing that He Shu is full of praise.

"Don't tell me you haven't eaten barbecue?" He Shu asked upon seeing this.

"I've eaten it, but not like this."

The barbecue he has eaten is at most a whole chicken plucked in boiling water, roasted on the fire, and then sprinkled with salt, which is far from this delicate and delicate cooking method.

"Don't ask, you must have lived a monotonous life before. It's okay. Fortunately, you met me. In the future, I will teach you what it means to live a nourishing life." He Shuyu said earnestly, "Life is incomplete without eating skewers."

Guanghan didn't take it seriously, he also came here all these years ago.

Eating is just an act of satiety, and the quality of food is to make the body function better.

He learned cooking skills from the Black Restaurant, and the dishes he cooked were enough to make He Shu and Fengfeng cheer, and he also had many fans in the live broadcast room, but for Guanghan himself, he had never invested too much in this aspect before. Hobby.

After two bottles of beer, He Shu seemed to talk more.

"You haven't even eaten grilled oysters, have you? Let me tell you, in addition to celery and garlic, this grilled oyster also puts some dried radish. After roasting, the dried radish is mixed with oyster juice, tsk tsk!"

Before the oysters were served, Guanghan first took the beer from He Shu and took a big sip.

Slightly astringent and refreshing, it washes away the greasiness left by the barbecue.

He Shu can drink well, so he won't get drunk after drinking beer, but his face is easy to drink, and his cheeks will turn red immediately after drinking half a bottle of beer.

"Do you know what's good about eating grilled oysters?"

"Aphrodisiac." Guanghan replied slyly.

He Shu chuckled and patted him on the shoulder.

"It's good to know, eat more, what are you still doing?"

"These oysters taste pretty good."

"You finally found out? The reflex arc is really long enough. If you want to eat, eat more today. When the little broken bird comes back, I will definitely not be able to invite it according to its appetite..."

Surrounded by such simple square folding tables, a few customers sit together, it is a prosperous night.

The cups and plates are intertwined, laughing and laughing, full of lively and cheerful fireworks.

It has been a long time since Guanghan was in such a lively place. Whether he was working in a restaurant or playing tricks in a film and television city before, it was other people who were busy there. He stood far away, under the eaves, in the shadows, not touching Dust leaves only.

All the commotion seemed to have nothing to do with him.

But now, the hand on the shoulder is as lively as the whole body, from far to near, gradually becoming real.

It was this hand, this person, who brought him into the excitement.

Guanghan suddenly understood why He Shu and other people around him liked this place.

The weight of some people and some things is always increasing a little bit.

He didn't even notice it himself.

When you really find out, maybe a certain person or something is already different and unusual in your heart.

A ray of autumn wind blows, blowing the coolness with the aroma of grilled skewers into the nostrils, and also sending the laughter of the people around you into my heart.

Guanghan suddenly remembered a poem he read recently.

Sneaked into the night wind, moisten things silently.

……

Lake City.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Xinhuan Building.

"Do you take a taxi?"

"I take the subway, my house is right next to the subway station, it's quite convenient!"

"Okay, see you tomorrow!"

Liang Qingru and her colleagues stepped out of the elevator in a hurry, and several pairs of heels of different weights clanged on the marble, echoing in the air. These sounds sounded high-spirited during the day, but turned into exhaustion at night.

The security guard at the door on the first floor raised his head when he heard the sound, saw that they swiped their cards through, then lowered their heads and continued swiping their phones.

An ordinary overtime night.

This is also the second time Liang Qingru has worked overtime this month.

She works in real estate. Recently, a piece of wasteland in the suburbs of this city is going to be developed into a commercial center. Just as the wind blows from the top, the wind blows from the bottom. It just so happens that the real estate company that Liang Qingru works for develops a residential area near this area, and the price suddenly rises. It was not easy to sell All the units were sold out, and Liang Qingru, who was in charge of marketing, naturally got busy.

A meeting runs from six o'clock to nine o'clock, with a half-hour break for lunch. Everyone is exhausted and has no appetite.

As Liang Qingru walked, she was still thinking about the unfinished work at hand, thinking that if she had to come earlier tomorrow, she might be able to get off work on time tomorrow night.

Her steps suddenly stopped.

Colleagues watched her fumble in her pocket for a while.

"Forgot something?"

"I left my phone!" Liang Qingru patted her forehead, "I can't bring my phone with me during the meeting. I put it on the seat, picked up my bag and left, but forgot my phone."

Without a mobile phone, she couldn't even take a taxi, so she asked her colleagues to go first, and she turned back to take the elevator.

The company is on the 21st floor, occupying an entire floor, and even the 22nd and 23rd floors upstairs belong to their company.

In the center of Jianing, where land is very expensive, this real estate company is already very successful. Liang Qingru's salary for two years after graduation is also quite impressive among her peers. This is why she has not complained about working overtime. The company is not stingy when it comes to overtime pay.

Pressing down on the number "21" with her slender fingers, Liang Qingru habitually wanted to take out her phone to take a look, but when she found nothing, she couldn't help being depressed, so she had to focus her eyes on the jumping of the elevator floor.

10, 11, 12, 13, 14…

The elevator stopped.

The door opened slowly.

It was dark outside, and it was obvious that most of the office workers on this floor were off work.

Liang Qingru waited for a few seconds, but no one came in.

This kind of situation often happens. Someone presses the elevator and walks away temporarily, or suddenly thinks of something left behind and runs back to get it.

Without thinking too much, she pressed the close button again.

The elevator door closed slowly, but the equipment did not go up for a long time.

After a few seconds, the door opened again.

Still on the fourteenth floor.

Liang Qingru muttered in her heart, and couldn't help feeling a little hairy.

At this time, someone finally walked in from outside.

Black dress, black high heels, black shoulder bag.

The long hair floated by, and Liang Qingru couldn't see the other person's face clearly.

The young woman stood in the corner with her back facing her, as if she was applying makeup in the mirror. Liang Qingru's position was just reflective, and with the cover of the woman's hair, it was difficult to see her face clearly at a glance.

Anyway, someone finally came in, Liang Qingru secretly heaved a sigh of relief, turned her head back, and laughed at herself for making a fuss.

The elevator went up to the 21st floor smoothly, she hurried out and found her mobile phone on the desk.

Looking at it again, she forgot to charge the phone. At this time, it is already at 1% of the battery, and it will automatically shut down anytime, anywhere.

Liang Qingru had no choice but to find a power bank by rummaging through the boxes and cabinets. He didn't bother to check whether the power stored in it was enough, so he picked up the power bank and the charging cable and stuffed it into the bag.

The floor of the building was empty, and she felt a little guilty. She didn't want to stay any longer. At least there were security guards on the first floor. Even if the phone ran out of battery, there would be sockets there to borrow.

Liang Qingru hurried to the elevator room. The elevator she got up just now still stopped at the number "21".

In response to the city government's recent energy conservation and environmental protection initiative, after nine o'clock, only one of the building's four elevators was still in operation.

The moment she stepped into the elevator, Liang Qingru suddenly remembered something——

The woman who just got into the elevator from the fourteenth floor didn't press the floor button!

If she also came home from get off work, she should have gone to the first floor, but the elevator still stopped on the 21st floor, and the other elevators couldn't work, which meant that the woman followed her out and never used the elevator again.

But Liang Qingru knew all of the colleagues on the 21st floor, at least most of them knew each other by face, so they wouldn't run into each other without even saying hello.

In my impression, no one in the company likes to wear a black top hat and go to work in all black!

Liang Qingru shuddered when she thought of the sporadic rumors about this building she had heard before, and only hoped that the elevator would reach the first floor quickly.

There seemed to be a kind of will in the dark to hear her heart, but to do the opposite. The elevator descended to the fourteenth floor and stopped again.

Liang Qingru felt her heart stop for a moment, and then she was grabbed hard!

She pressed down hard on the door close button.

It didn't work, the door still opened to both sides.

But this time, no woman in a black dress came in, and it was still pitch black outside. There were only a few emergency lights scattered in the aisle, sending a faint blue light, and adding the words "safe passage" in the dark green made people inexplicably uneasy.

After a few seconds, no one came in, and the elevator door closed, but it didn't descend.

Liang Qingru's heart was beating like a drum, and she pressed the emergency call button with trembling hands.

"Hey, is there anyone! The elevator is broken, and I'm trapped on the fourteenth floor and can't go down!"

There was a rustling sound from the other end, and she strained to prick her ears to get closer, but she couldn't hear a complete sentence.

Going to press the door button again, the elevator actually opened.

Stay in the elevator, or go down the fire escape?

Liang Qingru chose the latter without hesitation!

She rushed out and rushed to the fire escape. She twisted the doorknob several times, but failed to open it.

Liang Qingru looked left and right, and with the faint blue light, she saw the old and rusty company signboard on the left, behind the glass door, the wiring from the ceiling hanging down, and dusty desks, which didn't look like someone was working during the day.

In a place like Xinhuan Building, only companies with good annual income can gain a foothold. There will never be a situation where a company will close down and still occupy a place here, because there are already a lot of companies queuing up outside to move in.

She turned to look to the right again.

The same dilapidated signboard, the messy scene behind the door.

This almost made Liang Qingru think that she came to some unknown office building.

She frantically took out her mobile phone, only to find that it had long been out of battery and turned off.

The room leak happened to rain all night, Liang Qingru was about to cry!

She suddenly remembered that there were stairs at the other end of the building, and hurried to the direction she remembered.

Every day during working hours, there will always be people who can’t hold back their cravings and run to the stairs to smoke. Besides, people often come to check the fire safety in the building, and it is impossible to lock all the exits.

Liang Qingru pinned all her hopes on the safety exit on the other side. Her palms were sweating and her mind went blank.

The only good thing is that I wear a pair of flat shoes to work today, so even if I have to climb the stairs from the [-]th floor, I won't feel too uncomfortable.

Tee, Tee, Tee.

There was the sound of footsteps from behind, the sound of high heels stepping on the ground.

Is someone here?

Liang Qingru was overjoyed, and turned her head to look.

From a distance, a figure came.

The lights were dim, almost none, and it was hard to see clearly, only an outline could be vaguely recognized.

High heels, skirts, hats.

Isn't that the woman I just met in the elevator? !

Liang Qingru's hair exploded, and she raised her voice tremblingly and boldly: "Miss sister, are you an employee on this floor?"

no answer.

That figure walked up, the heels of his shoes stepped on the ground in a rhythmic rhythm, but Liang Qingru's heart was beating with the rhythm.

"Don't come here, stop!" She raised her voice.

The other party seems to have never heard of it, getting closer and closer.

Liang Qingru tried to identify the other person's appearance, but could only see a blur of black under the brim of the hat, and two faintly green eyes.

She screamed, without hesitation, turned and ran,

There is a safety exit in front, be sure not to lock it again!

Liang Qingru stretched out his hand to grab the handle as if grabbing a life-saving straw, pulled it down, and pushed his body forward!

Can't open it!

Why still can't open it!

She slammed it hard a few times, but the door remained motionless, unable to respond to her urgency.

Liang Qingru was about to cry, she gritted her teeth, rushed towards the shadow that was getting closer, and smashed the bag in her hand!

I let you play tricks!

"ah!!!!----"

……

"Hey, have you heard that something happened to Xinhuan Building two days ago!"

"Why did something happen again? Did someone jump off the building again?"

"No, this time it's even scarier. It's the man who fell under the elevator. It's said that when he was carried out, his flesh and blood were so bloody that he couldn't see the human form clearly."

"Why did Duan Duan fall down?"

"I don't know. I heard that the little girl worked overtime, but the family didn't wait for her to go back. After calling the police and monitoring, she didn't leave the company at all. My colleagues said she forgot to bring her mobile phone and went back to get it. Later, she searched everywhere and found The elevator broke down, and finally found someone underneath."

"This is too bad..."

"How dare I take the elevator after this?!"

"Our company is on the tenth floor, can you climb the stairs every day without taking the elevator?"

"Hey……"

……

In the depths of the darkness, someone who didn't know also sighed faintly.

"Ugh……"
