The Midnight Owl

Chapter 7: perturbed

Views:

Owl, the sound is the same as "Xiao", there is only one word in the dictionary, "owl owl". There are many kinds of birds with large heads and short and curved bills. Owl is one of them.

After confirming the online dictionary, the true face of the few "gugu" sounds at midnight came to the surface.

It was the cry of an owl, and it was also a reminder that the "Magic Hour" opened.

The night will pass, the east will turn white, and life will always return to the right track.

Sun Jiang is a coach of a driving school. There are still students in class today, and he was the first to leave. Kuang Jinxin is a senior this year, majoring in tea studies. His home is in Southwest China, and his university is in Jiangnan. He said that the owner of the restaurant took good care of him, and it was no problem to ask for another day off, but in fact they had nothing to do now except wait for the night, so under the persuasion of Wu Sheng and Xu Wang, classmate Kuang obediently returned to the internship post.

After sending the two away, Xu Wang naturally set his sights on Wu Sheng, and euphemistically passed the "Expulsion Order." From his heart, he certainly hoped to spend more time with Wu Sheng, but intellectually, he clearly understood This kind of relationship is not beneficial, so don't cheat others.

Wu Sheng received attention, but he didn't plan to execute it. Instead, he stood up eager to "deepen the reunion": "Won't you show me a tour?"

Without the outsiders, Xu Wang was not polite, and slapped him to death: "It's not a museum, it's a visit." Moreover, there is one room and one living room, and the living room is unobstructed, and the rest is not only the bedroom. Any visit to the bedroom without sex is a hooligan!

"Why do you react so badly? Or..." Wu Sheng raised his eyebrows maliciously, the more he was not allowed to look at it, the more his eyes drifted towards the bedroom, "Is there really something shameful in it?"

Xu Wang was speechless for a while, stared at him with itchy teeth for a long time, and said, "Why are you still so annoying after ten years."

Wu Sheng glanced at him, it was still the formula of the year, and it was still the same disgust of the year: "It's like how much progress you have made."

The two are Mr. Wang and Mr. Yu, the difference is only one point, and they are proficient in each other's dark history, so when they are fighting each other, no one wants to win an overwhelming victory. .

After realizing this by coincidence, the two died down and entered a short spring.

However, after a few chats about the recent situation, Wu Sheng questioned the professional expression of his old classmate: "Property consultant?"

Xu Wang scratched his neck stubbornly: "Is there a problem?"

Wu Sheng leaned into the sofa, crossed Erlang's legs, and smiled politely with a water glass in his hand: "I'll sell the house."

Xu Wang narrowed his eyes: "Then what industry did you, an old man who returned to China to start a business, work in?"

Wu Sheng took a sip of water unhurriedly: "Software development."

Xu Wang nodded: "Code farmer."

Wu Sheng got a sip of water stuck in his throat.

Xu Wang also raised Erlang's legs, his little feet trembled happily.

It's strange to say that, obviously not seeing each other for ten years, it's like going back to high school again. Xu Wang thought, maybe Jingu fled around and fought with the bear when it was time to be unfamiliar, so the opportunity for all the greetings and politeness was missed, and it went directly to the new chapter of "We are still good classmates".

Three poles in the sun, Xu Wang looked at his mobile phone, and if he didn't go to catch the subway, he would really be absent from work. "

Wu Sheng looked at him in astonishment, as if this kind of behavior was very incomprehensible: "Sun Jiang goes to work because he has a wife and children to support, and when Xiao Kuang goes to work, it is about the appraisal and comment of the internship unit. You don't have to support your family, and you don't have to graduate. Not to mention, sit down and plan your countermeasures, and you still have to go to work?"

As soon as Xu Wang heard the tone of standing and talking without back pain, he wanted to slap someone with the soles of his shoes: "I don't have to support a family, but a single dog can't live on the northwest wind. It won't die if it pops out of an owl, but if I do it today If you don't go to work, you will really die."

When I asked for leave yesterday, the boss was already unwilling to ask for it again today, unless he planned to pack up and leave.

"Forget it, it doesn't make sense with you rich people." Xu Wang waved his hand and quickly ended the topic. After all, he felt like he was selling out.

Wu Sheng frowned, showing innocence and grievance: "How can I become rich..."

Xu Wang rolled his eyes, got up and went to the bedroom to change his clothes, not wanting to talk to him anymore.

At the alumni reunion two years ago, he had heard from a classmate who had returned from an expatriate assignment in the United States. Minutes to match Zuckerberg's posture.

Although the classmate's description is extremely exaggerated, the envy in his eyes cannot deceive anyone. Envy shows that he really thinks that Wu Sheng is much better than himself. And this student who has been stationed abroad all the year round is already considered to be one of their high school classmates who have struggled very well. He is less than 30 years old and has already received an annual salary.

Xu Wang, who came out of the bedroom in a suit and leather shoes, found that Wu Sheng was still sitting on the sofa, he didn't mean to move a little bit, even Erlang's legs were the same as before, and he was completely convinced: "What are you thinking, I really plan to stay here and not leave. already?"

Wu Sheng was stunned when he saw his brand-new outfit.

Xu Wang was seen as uncomfortable, and deliberately shouted in a thick voice: "Hey—"

Wu Sheng blinked his eyes, and finally came back to his senses. He quickly lowered his head to get a water cup: "Ah, that, I said hello to my partner, and I won't be going to the company today."

Xu Wang frowned at first because he didn't understand why he reached for an empty glass, but then the frown deepened, it was entirely because of his words: "You mean you want to stay with me for a day? !"

Wu Sheng raised his head and drank water for a long time, only to find that the cup had long run out of water, and pretended to put it down naturally before slowly raising his head, his face was already righteous and awe-inspiring: "Your life is important, so I can only sacrifice, there will always be someone Go figure out what to do with the owl."

"You can think elsewhere."

"I have no place to live in Beijing."

"fart!"

"No fart."

"… "

In the three years of high school, Xu Wang's PK Wu Sheng's winning rate has been stable at 50%. Now everyone is an adult. After ten years of different situations, Xu Wang found sadly that his winning rate seemed to have dropped.

"Don't look through my things," Xu Wang stood outside the door and gave a death order to Wu Sheng who saw him off in the hallway, "If I find out..." He narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Break our friendship."

Wu Sheng nodded, unprecedented sincerity and solemnity.

Well, there are definitely secrets in the bedroom.

The security door slammed shut tightly.

Xu Wang hates himself with a sigh, and waits for the elevator with his head drooping.

Wu Sheng touched his chin and looked at the bedroom door, which was tightly seamed, and made up countless unspeakable things in his mind.

Inside and outside the door, thousands of thoughts.

When Xu Wang squeezed into the subway, Wu Sheng, who had been struggling and lingering in front of the bedroom door for almost half an hour, received a call from his partner. The program being developed encountered a technical problem that several engineers could not solve, so he could only find him. The R&D director and half-boss came out.

Wu Sheng sighed into the phone, and the little joy that had just accumulated was disturbed: "You are also the boss, can't this kind of small problem be solved by yourself?"

The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly rose: "Small problem? If I can solve this kind of small problem, I won't invest the same money as you but only take three shares and give you seven."

Wu Sheng was speechless.

As the saying goes, the bigger the stake, the bigger the responsibility.

"Let Xiao Mu bring my notebook over, and I'll send you the address later."

"Can't you just go back to the company? What's so important that you can't even leave?"

"No keys."

"what?"

"I don't have a key, so I can't go. If I leave, I can't come in again."

Silence on the other end of the phone.

After a long time, Wu Sheng heard his partner ask, "Aren't you doing something illegal..."

The notebook was delivered quickly, but the so-called "minor problem" was not easy to solve. It was two o'clock in the afternoon when it was completely settled. Wu Sheng sent the data back to the company, he had long forgotten about the bedroom, glanced at the time, and opened the Internet non-stop...

Xu Wang has been restless all day, always afraid that the things in the bedroom will be revealed, so he has to comfort himself over and over again, it's okay, he said that he would break up with the things, Wu Sheng didn't dare.

I don't know if it's because I thought about it too much, I slept so deeply during the lunch break, and I even had a vague dream. In the dream, Wu Sheng stood in the center of his bedroom, holding a box-shaped loot, like a Marvel villain holding a cosmic cube.

Perhaps the last two days were extremely unlucky, bottomed out, and a customer that was cultivated in the early stage came to sign a contract in the afternoon. Originally, it was not Xu Wang who received him today. As a result, the client pointed out that he would patiently introduce various floors and apartment types to him a few days ago. He also looked into the future development of the surrounding area realistically, and the first sign was the largest apartment type in the real estate. .

When this set is sold, the promotion alone will cost more than 20,000 yuan, and the amount will also be recorded in the total performance, which is directly linked to the calculation of performance at the end of the year and the issuance of year-end bonuses.

Taking advantage of the spring breeze of this order, Xu Wang swept away his previous fatigue and worries, got off work in high spirits, and was particularly high-spirited when crowding the subway.

When he arrived at the door of the house, Xu Wang couldn't explain his psychology. He was very careful from getting the key to opening the door. Those who didn't know it thought it was someone else's house, and he came to be a thief.

When he opened the door and entered the entrance, it was quiet. If it wasn't for the faint light of the neon lights outside the window, he almost didn't see Wu Sheng on the sofa.

The man was sitting on the sofa with his head tilted and was sleeping soundly. On the coffee table was a notebook that Xu Wang had never seen before, and the screen was flashing with a cold light. I don't know if it was because Wu Sheng had just fallen asleep, or the computer itself was canceled. It goes to sleep, so even when there is no operation, the screen is still bright.

He tiptoed to the sofa, Xu Wang bent down slightly, and looked at this guy seriously for the first time since the reunion.

The eyes, nose, and mouth are really almost unchanged, and the smile is still as attractive as ever. Romantic appearance, this is the definition of Wu Sheng's appearance given by Xu Wang in high school without authorization, although the latter has never been in love for three years in high school.

Breathing, along with Xu Wang's peeping, sprinkled on Wu Sheng's eyelashes. I don't know if it's true or just an illusion, the eyelashes trembled suddenly. Xu Wang felt guilty, and hurriedly straightened up and pretended to look away.

This installment swept to the screen of the laptop.

After reading the full screen of English, Xu Wang gnawed from top to bottom for a long time, and finally nibbled out two words that appeared most frequently—MULTIVERSE and PARALLEL UNIVERSES.

Xu Wang recognized the word "universe" and simply took out his mobile phone to search for an online translation. The first word was "multiverse" and the second phrase was "parallel universe".

Xu Wang didn't have any research on these advanced issues, but after watching more sci-fi movies and contacting him about what happened in the past two days, he probably understood what Wu Sheng was looking for.

He is really researching, not just talking about it.

When encountering problems, you must be tough, and there is absolutely no word "go around" in the dictionary - Wu Sheng had this temper ten years ago.

Gently returning to the bedroom, the first thing Xu Wang did after closing the door was not to turn on the light to change his clothes, but to turn on the light to look at the wardrobe. It was not until it was confirmed that a box in the deepest corner of the closet had been moved that he patted his chest with peace of mind and exhaled slowly.

"What are you looking for?" The question came from the door, and his tone rose subtly.

Xu Wang's scalp went numb, he immediately slammed the closet door, raised his head to meet Wu Sheng's inquiring gaze, and tried his best to exude a sacred and inviolable righteousness from head to toe: "I'm looking for clothes to change, it's up to you. Also, this is my house, can you knock on the door before you come in!"

Wu Sheng hugged his hands against the door frame, and looked at him leisurely: "I knocked, but you may have been so sneaky that you didn't hear it."
