Not long after Sun Jiang quit, the four of them each received a new reminder.
The three who are still in a team state receive: —
What Sun Jiang received was: —
Poetic message, but cursed result.
Sun Jiang disappeared.
Xu Wang, Wu Sheng, and Kuang Jinxin watched as his figure became more and more shallow, and eventually disappeared. The place where he once sat was empty, as if there was no such person in the first place.
The air in the cave solidified, as if it had been rapidly frozen, downright chilly.
"Has he bounced back to reality or..." Kuang Jinxin said aloud, not daring to say the last word.
Returning to reality means liberation. If a person is completely gone, it is death in another sense. There are two guesses, one is heaven and the other is hell.
A lonely ship never makes its way to shore.
Xu Wang recited the sentence he just saw on Sun Jiang's arm in his heart, and his heart slowly went down. It really didn't look like good news to send someone home.
"He didn't return to reality, but he didn't disappear." Wu Sheng said suddenly.
Xu Wang instinctively didn't believe it, and squinted at him: "Do you know?"
"I don't rely on guessing like you, I have logical reasoning." Wu Sheng shrugged, the lightness on his face contrasted sharply with the worries of his teammates.
"Then what did you deduce?" Xu Wang rolled his eyes to the sky, but it was very strange, the dark clouds in his heart suddenly dissipated a lot.
Wu Sheng no longer sells off: "Choose 'additional staff'."
Xu Wang was unwilling and moved slowly, while Kuang Jinxin, who was listening attentively, did not hesitate to do so.
Soon, the same list of additional candidates appeared on their arms—
1/23 Sun Jiang [Invitation]
1/23 An Peng [Invitation]
1/23 Bai Haichuan [Invitation]
1/23…
There are twenty or thirty people in a series of names, all of which are 1/23 of the same time as them. Except for Sun Jiang, who has formed a team, the rest are arranged according to the first letter of the surname.
"So many people are in the 'Owl'?" Kuang Jinxin didn't expect it at all, "Why haven't we met any of us? And why are they all alone and not forming a team?"
Xu Wang breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Sun Jiang was still safe. Hearing this, he patted Jin Xin's head in a funny way: "Since it's a candidate list, it's definitely a single person on the list. Invitation, called digging a wall."
Kuang Jinxin: "But whether we have a team or not, we have never met?"
"Uh, the people who quit the team may disappear temporarily like Sun Jiang, what about the other teams..." Xu Wang tilted his head and thought for a while, and suddenly understood, "It must be fate, we just missed it all!"
Kuang Jinxin frowned a little embarrassedly, as if he really wanted to believe, but he couldn't convince himself: "Is that a coincidence..."
Wu Sheng glanced at Xu Wang unbearably: "If you don't know, just say you don't know, don't take other people's children to run wild on the crooked road."
The three did not invite any teammates in the end. When it comes to going to northern Shaanxi, let alone the attitude of the invitees is unknown, even the three of them have not reached an agreement.
At exactly five o'clock, that nasty voice that bubbling from time to time resounded in my ears—
[Owl: Baby~ It's dawn, I'll take you home.]
The three popped out, but the four of them gathered.
Sun Jiang also looked surprised.
After a brief exchange of information, the three realized that after Sun Jiang disappeared, he appeared in another, the same place, the same cave, the same ice waterfall, but there was no one else. Later, he returned to the cave and sat with him until Five o'clock.
Just like the four people on the original mahjong table were re-divided into two tables, the mahjong on each table is still the same mahjong, but one table is missing one, one table is missing three, and the two tables are in different rooms, Can't see each other.
Condition Jinxin's question of "why never meet other teams or other people" seems to be explained by applying this mahjong theory - indeed, everyone is in the "owl", and may even face the same bear, the same guess Idiom, but the rooms are different and independent of each other.
This time they were greeted by Liuyin Park, which was only four or five hundred meters away from the last Qingnian Lake Park. It was exactly the same as the location and distance of the ice waterfall and cave in the "Owl", which once again confirmed Wu Sheng's geographical location." Correspondence inside and outside” inference.
Sun Jiang waved his hand to stop a taxi, and didn't say anything else. After getting into the car, he smiled at them through the window, as if he wanted to wave, but in the end he just nodded.
The taxi drove away and eventually disappeared at the end of the street in the darkness before sunrise.
Under the street lamps at the entrance of the park, three young men with cool breezes were silent for a while.
A large leaf swept up by the wind called to the back of Xu Wang's head. Xu Wang didn't know what to do, so he raised his hand in a conditioned reflex and patted it.
Xu Wang grabbed the dead leaves silently, and was even more upset: "Okay, don't stand there stupidly, go home!"
"All go back to my house" was omitted as the word "go home". The speaker has no intention, but it gives the listener a kind of intimacy of "going back to their own home". It's amazing, like a wisp of warm wind in the cold morning.
It was still the living room of Xu Wang's house, the same sofa, and the same chair.
As soon as Kuang Jinxin sat down, he shouted loudly: "Brother Xu, I've decided to go to northern Shaanxi with you!"
Xu Wang almost fell from the chair, and when he looked at Wu Sheng again, the other party's expression of Kuang Jin Xin was not much better than his own, and he even confirmed it again: "Do you really think about it?"
Kuang Jinxin looked at Wu Sheng and nodded vigorously without hesitation: "I think about it. If I don't clarify things, I have no intention of practicing. No, it should be said that there is such a thing hanging, I can't do anything. Make up your mind."
Wu Sheng was unmoved: "What about the internship appraisal?"
Xu Wang silently praised his classmate in his heart.
Hot-headedness is the patent of teenagers, but as adults, even if they can't be a positive role model, don't add to the flames, otherwise no matter who's kid is cheating, it's a sin.
Kuang Jinxin obviously didn't expect Wu Sheng's consideration to be so comprehensive. After a while, he patted his head embarrassedly: "Don't worry about the internship appraisal. Actually... that... Hey, let me tell you the truth, the owner of this restaurant is my family. A distant relative of my family, he still has to call me uncle according to the lineage of the family."
The unexpected "character relationship" left both Wu Sheng and Xu Wang stunned.
"Actually, I will go home to help after graduation. I don't need to look for a job. Our school does not require every graduate to have an internship appraisal. But there are no classes in the senior year. I worked hard. I didn’t want to be idle every day, so when I was calling home, I casually said that I wanted to find a part-time job and experience the society. As a result, my second uncle and aunt found me an internship unit the next day…”
The shame of "going through the back door" made Kuang's voice and head lower and lower.
Xu Wang was more concerned about another thing. What he said was to call "home", but it was "Second Uncle and Auntie" who responded...
"Brother Xu," Kuang Jinxin's suddenly loud voice interrupted Xu Wang's thoughts, only to see him raise his head again, with the simplicity and firmness unique to a young man, repeating his decision again, "I'll go with you! "
"Okay." This time Wu Sheng didn't hesitate any longer.
After compiling Kuang Jinxin, Wu Sheng naturally turned his attention to Xu Wang: "How about you?"
Xu Wang turned his face away and looked at the stars outside the window.
Wu Sheng got up and walked around the coffee table, came to the direction he was looking up at, and blocked his sight with his height advantage: "Why don't you speak?"
Xu Wang had no choice but to look at the handsome face of the other party, saying slowly and solemnly like a wise man, "I'm thinking."
Wu Sheng choked with old blood in his chest: "What's there to think about? You don't need an intern appraisal, and you don't have to take your family with you."
Xu Wang's two old blood attacked his heart: "Does a single dog need no respect?"
"What does this have to do with respect or disrespect?" Wu Sheng couldn't understand Xu Wang's brain circuit, "Single means less concern, you and I are the same. '."
Xu Wang: "...Does everyone in the United States speak Chinese?"
Wu Sheng: "Huh?"
Xu Wang: "Otherwise, where would you get so many witticisms!!!"
"Taking it for granted" is Wu Sheng's second biggest flaw besides "pretending to be forceful". I don't know how many classmates were tortured by him back then. At best, this character is called "I think we should all think like this", and the vernacular is "how can you think differently from me, you are too strange".
Although it turns out that Wu Sheng's thinking is fine most of the time, and it is also the best solution, this kind of too simple and rude pure rational thinking really makes people want to beat him.
Even if you think about it a little bit, you can say something nice and obedient in a roundabout way!
The moon sets and the sun rises, and the sky outside the window gradually brightens.
Kuang Jinxin looked at Wu Sheng who was "of course", and then looked at Xu Wang who was "contemplating intensely", and his intuition was better to be onlookers.
Xu Wang had already neglected classmate Kuang, any decision was the result of weighing multiple factors, and he was now concentrating on calculating the score for each factor.
To go or not to go
5 points for work.
Safety is 3 points.
Expenses (money) count for 1 point.
Wu Sheng…
Xu Wang took a peek at the guy.
91 points.
Depend on!
Xu Wang made a decision in his heart, but he couldn't be soft on his mouth: "I'll ask for a leave and try it." He raised his eyebrows at Wu Sheng and added another sentence, "Don't have too much hope."
Wu Sheng's face was "unsatisfactory": "You just don't have enough resolve, so if you don't take leave, you will quit... Hey, just kick it!"
"The widow was kicked" put a stop to this travel discussion about whether to go or not.
The missing fruit knife was finally found on the ground beside Xu Wang's bed.
At that time, Jin Xin had already left, Wu Sheng was holding a notebook in the living room to check the exact location of the new coordinates, and Xu Wang came to the bedroom to change into a suit for work.
Wu Sheng, who was finally allowed to enter the bedroom, took the fruit knife, fiddled with it twice, and analyzed: "It may not have been dropped. If you are sure to put it in your pocket, it is likely that 'owls' are not allowed to enter with lethal weapons."
Xu Wang didn't say anything, and he could be regarded as a low-key approval of his inference.
The question of the knife came to an end, Xu Wang looked down at the tie he had half-worn, then raised his head to look at Wu Sheng, and then raised his chin to the door, the meaning could not be more obvious.
Wu Sheng watched him quietly for a while, but actually turned around and left.
Xu Wangzheng was surprised how this person was so obedient today, and suddenly a head popped out of the door of the bedroom that had disappeared: "You look good in a suit."
Xu Wang was stunned in place. After a long time, he replied like a fool, "Oh."
It wasn't until he got on the subway that Xu Wang completely recovered his senses, and a long cry from the bottom of his heart - why don't you marry him!
After arriving at the company, the "Northern Shaanxi Tourism Plan" will naturally be put on the agenda-
"Ask for leave again?" A cloud appeared on the manager's face, "Why do you do so much every day?"
Xu Wang lowered his eyebrows, his attitude was too good to be desired.
The manager couldn't express his anger and was suffocating. When he saw the number of days on the leave request, his face turned black, and he pierced the office door and went straight to the sales hall: "One week?!
Xu Wang raised his eyes slightly, and Te Shunliu nodded: "Okay, I'll resign, please settle this month's salary."
The manager was stunned, obviously not expecting Xu Wang to be so decisive.
Xu Wang said nothing and went directly to the finance department to collect the money.
He never thought that after a phone call, there was only 1,900 yuan left on the salary slip that the finance department gave him.
Xu Wang pressed the fire and reminded the other party: "I just sold a large apartment two days ago."
"You must resign one month in advance, and those who leave with the resignation will not be paid the commission bonus. The basic salary is 3,000, deducting absences and the social security that the company has paid for you. That's all."
Xu Wangding stared at her for a while, then laughed suddenly, with a very gentle voice: "I regret it, and I will not resign."
The employees who smelled unusual were whispering, and when they saw Xu Wang came out of the financial room empty-handed, not only did he not leave, but instead stood in the hall as if he was going to work normally, they all looked at him in astonishment.
A few minutes later, the door of the manager's room was knocked on by a furious employee: "Manager, come out and have a look!"
In the hall, Xu Wang, in a suit and leather shoes, was telling a customer about the apartment type—
"You are very discerning in choosing this one. The layout of three bedrooms and one living room, we just changed it to four bedrooms and two living rooms. The room is a little too small to turn around, but you can get used to it when you squeeze it. The key is practical. You see In the living room, the sun will never come in, and you won't be afraid of the sunset in the summer. It is guaranteed to be cool..."
He has a good smile and a loud voice, exuding a conspicuous aura from head to toe. Even customers next to other property consultants are hard not to be attracted by him, and consciously or unconsciously they prick up their ears to listen.
"Greening? Don't worry about greening, this community is full of wasteland, and it takes half an hour to walk to the nearest bus station. What kind of plant do you want, you can enjoy the joy of harvest to the fullest. Supporting facilities? There will be, I promise. , he got up in 3578 at the slowest..."
"Xu Wang," the manager who came out to check the situation, gritted his teeth endlessly in a calm voice, "follow, me, come in, come."
The floor-to-ceiling door was closed, and the shutters were covered.
The manager didn't talk nonsense, and gave an ultimatum: "You have been fired."
Xu Wang nodded his head and said, "I won't take any points if it's not mine, and I won't lose any points if it's mine. I'll leave when it's over."
The manager sneered: "Either you get out, or I'll let the security throw you out."
"Okay," Xu Wang also smiled, very warm and genial, "you throw me out, and I will go to the labor bureau to sue that you dismissed without reason and violated the "Labor Law". If you sue the company, it doesn't matter who is responsible or not, it depends on who is having a good time. I will pull up a banner in front of your sales office the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, it will say 'Return my hard-earned money'. Or 'the black-hearted developers cut corners, and the owners have no way to defend their rights'?"
The manager was so angry that his cheeks were shaking, his face turned pale, and he couldn't say a word.
The late autumn is cool and the sun is shining brightly.
With 29,000 cash in his pocket, Xu Wang found the nearest ATM and deposited all of it.
When he walked out of the self-service bank, Xu Wang stretched his arms wide, as if saying goodbye to the tired past and welcoming an unknown tomorrow.
