China, Shanghai City, Huangpu District.
Inside a building.
A woman with a good appearance and figure was standing in front of a group of judges holding a microphone and cleared her throat a little nervously.
"Judges, I am Xu Yu No. 405, and the song I'm going to sing next is called "Drizzle Rain"..."
"Stop talking, let's start. This is not China's Got Talent, so there is no need for so many opening remarks." One of the fat judges said: "Everyone is short on time, you just sing."
Xu Yu nodded hastily, and then she sang into the microphone.
Frankly speaking, her voice is still very good, and it fits the artistic conception of the lyrics very well. However, she only sang halfway, and the judges said: "It's ok. You can go down."
"Judges?" Xu Yu was stunned.
"It's fine." The fat judge waved his hand and said, "You have a little skill, let's do it next time."
"But... I haven't finished singing yet, judges! For today's audition, I have been preparing for a month!"
"Let's go!" A slightly older judge next to him said, "It's useless after you finish singing!"
Xu Yu still wanted to argue about something, but the judges had already called the next person to appear.
She glanced at the group of people in front of her, and could only put down the microphone and go out.
After she left, the chubby judge said, "It's really troublesome. Since we've already decided who it is, we still have to listen to so many people singing. Acting is tiring."
"No way, what can be done with what the above said? I heard that she is the sponsor's daughter, hehe, who knows how many times this is done?"
Outside the building, Xu Yu walked down the sidewalk dejectedly.
Because she was a little lost, she didn't pay attention to the front, so she directly bumped into a person in front.
"Ouch!"
The one she bumped into was a beautiful woman whose appearance was no less than hers. After the beauty was hit by her, Xu Yu quickly helped her up.
"I'm sorry, yes... yes..."
However, Xu Yu couldn't continue talking. When she looked at the woman in front of her, she quickly withdrew her hand in fright!
"Sister... sister... sister?"
"Xu Yu?"
The woman stared blankly at Xu Yu in front of her, then looked at her hand, and said angrily: "Why are you, who told you to touch me! What do you want me to do! Get out, get out!"
Then, she ran away without looking back.
But Xu Yu stared blankly at this scene.
after an hour.
He tore off the lid of the instant noodle box in front of him, and then soaked in hot water.
Instant noodles can be said to be Xu Yu's regular food.
While waiting for the instant noodles to soak, she made another phone call.
"Hello... Well, that, Xiaoya, can I stay with you tonight?"
"Well, I have some things that are inconvenient...ah, it's not my aunt..."
"What? Your boyfriend is coming to live with you today? Then... ok."
This is already the seventh call she has made within this hour.
"Sister... I don't know what happened..."
"I wish I could have seen her better before I picked her up. Now..."
She is in a convenience store at the moment, and Xu Yu is currently a part-time student in this store. Today, she submits resumes everywhere, and has to work several jobs a day to barely pay the rent. With less than a junior college degree, it can be said that it is difficult to find a job, and her only hobby is singing. So a long time ago, she was preparing for this audition. This is a program called "The Voice of China", which is completely imitating "The Voice of China", mainly because the advertisers behind it want to use the talent show to promote their cosmetics.
While she was eating instant noodles, she started looking through the job boards of various newspapers.
"Um?"
She accidentally dropped the newspaper on the floor, and when she picked it up, it fell apart completely!
She had no choice but to pick up the newspapers one by one.
"Well... this one is A7 version, this one is..."
Just then, she saw a piece of news.
The content of this news is the news about Mo Mingyue, the richest man in Shanghai. The Mo's consortium established by Mo Mingyue has an astonishingly large amount of property.
However, Mo Mingyue, the CEO of the consortium, has not appeared in public for more than a month, which caused a great change in the stock price of the Mo family consortium. The 56-year-old Mo Mingyue did not have any children, so if something happened to her, the ownership of the huge assets of the Mo family would be valued by countless people. Currently in the securities industry, there are countless rumors about this old lady.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Xu Yu. The reason why she pays attention to this news must be to say why...
If she remembered correctly, when she met her sister just now, the work clothes she was wearing clearly had the logo of the Mo's Consortium. And it seems that it is still an executive in the company.
I haven't been in touch with my sister for so long, and I didn't expect her to hold an important position in such a big company.
After eating the instant noodles, she changed shifts with the person in front of the cashier and started to stand guard there again.
After an unknown amount of time, a man and a woman walked into the convenience store. And the man is a regular customer of the convenience store, a college student wearing glasses, and the woman is his girlfriend, but it was only once before that I saw two people coming at the same time.
Xu Yu looked at the two of them, and said hello to the college student: "Hi, I'm shopping again."
"Yeah." The college student forced a smile at Xu Yu, and the girlfriend behind him didn't look too good.
In the end, he selected some daily necessities and brought them to the cashier.
This college student lives in a rented house, so he often comes here to buy daily necessities such as shampoo, soap, and toothpaste. This time, no exception.
It's just that today's college students don't know why, just like the girlfriend behind him, their faces are extremely pale.
"Excuse me... did something happen?" Xu Yu asked with a worried look, "You don't look well?"
But the college student seemed to be in a trance. When he took out his wallet, his hands were shaking. And the girlfriend behind him also had a painful face.
Xu Yu took the money he handed over and put it back in the cash box. Then put his purchases in plastic bags.
The college student took the plastic bag and walked out with his girlfriend.
After the two left, she didn't know what was going on in her heart, and she felt uncomfortable.
More than three hours later, when she and Xiaoya, who worked together, were changing shifts, she mentioned this matter.
"That college student? Speaking of which, he also came the day before yesterday. But you were at home at that time to practice singing. Alas, he is also very pitiful..."
"Poor? What happened?"
"His girlfriend died in a car accident. He told me when he came the day before yesterday."
Hearing these words, Xu Yu's face suddenly turned pale!
"What did you say?"
Ten minutes later, she was sitting in the monitoring room behind the store. Tell the boss that someone suspected of stealing, the boss immediately asked her to check the surveillance screen.
three hours ago...
When college students come to buy things...
In the surveillance screen, he was the only one, and there was no one behind him!
"Actually... unexpectedly..."
Xu Yu's hand holding the mouse trembled slightly.
"calm down… "
After a long time, she took a deep breath.
On this day, she applied for early leave. She was afraid that the college student would come again at night.
At the same time, she dared not go home in the dark.
On the way home, Xu Yu was still talking to herself silently: "Sister... sister... is she the same as me now?"
"At that time... you shouldn't have held her hand..."
Before going home, she finally decided to...
Go to the gate of Mo's Consortium once.
The place where she participated in the draft happened to be near the headquarters of the Mo family consortium. The headquarter of Mo's Consortium is located in the center of Shanghai, a prime location in Huangpu District.
Of course, it might make it impossible to go home before dark, but Xu Yu is still very worried about her sister.
Compared with her, my sister's current situation will be even more terrifying.
And when she was sitting on the subway, she looked at everyone around her with a bit of fear.
because…
She didn't know which of these people were people and which were ghosts!
I haven't seen my sister for five years. Therefore, Xu Yu has not seen any ghosts for five years.
But... five years later, she saw again...
"The People's Square has arrived."
After arriving at the People's Optical Industry Station in Huangpu District, Xu Yu walked out.
At this moment until sunset... there is not much time...
