Chapter 23
Following Qiangzi and turning left and right in the alley, he saw a dilapidated one-story house. After stepping over the threshold, the huge courtyard house was divided into small rooms by the owner. The residents of this kind of house can only be reminiscent of Those who have just come to the city to work in the lower classes or people on the fringes of society.Xiang Haomiao and the others obviously belonged to the latter.
Walking into the furthest room, the sun was shining brightly outside, but the room was dark.
Besides Xiang Haomiao, there were two men in the room, one was tall and thin, and he had never seen him before.The other man was a bit hunchbacked and his face was full of pimples. This Dongchen looked familiar.May have seen it before.But they were all leaning on the bed with their eyes closed, looking very haggard.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, one of them asked, "Qiangzi? Did you bring anything?"
Qiangzi coughed when he heard the words, they opened their eyes with this cough, and closed their mouths vigilantly when they saw a person following Qiangzi.Xiang Haomiao seemed surprised when he saw that the person who followed was Xiang Dongchen.
"Qiangzi, why did you bring my brother here?" He said shaking and stood up.
"Your brother wants to pay you back, can I not bring him?" After saying that, he turned and said to Dongchen, "Your brother is here, you can give it to him."
"I haven't seen him for a long time, and I want to chat with him." Dongchen felt that the atmosphere in the room was very strange, but he still had to ask clearly about the doubts in his heart. Thinking of this, he glanced at Hao Miao's neck, and each of them The red bumps are more conspicuous.
Xiang Haomiao knew that Xiang Dongchen didn't owe him any money at all, but everyone was here, so he couldn't escape.He got up and went out, and the two inside shouted, "Don't go too far, we still have things to do."
I don't know if it's my own illusion, Dongchen always felt that there was a little threat in these words.Xiang Haomiao didn't reply, and he really didn't take Dongchen far away, so he found a shady place in this yard.
"Why did you come here to find me?"
"You still have the nerve to ask me? Why do you have Zeya's phone number? You are asking for money in my name, how shameless are you?" Thinking of the good deeds this cousin did, he became angry.Xiang Haomiao pouted. "It's good for you. I know rich friends. I'm not in a good situation now. It's okay to help me."
A rascal always speaks with confidence when he speaks of a rascal.
"You...! Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. I'll just ask you, do you...have any illness?" If you want to ask a straightforward question, you still can't open your mouth.But Xiang Haomiao still understood what he meant, and his face froze.
"Don't listen to nonsense. I'm fine."
"It's not what other people said, but the CDC called me. What's the matter with you?" After asking this sentence, Xiang Haomiao fell silent.There was a long silence.
Back then, Xiang Dongchen also thought about it in the few days when he first received the call. If it was true, then the cause was either promiscuity or smoking.Although Xiang Haomiao was ignorant, it was all because he was playful and didn't have much interest in women, so promiscuity was unlikely.
The scene I saw in the room just now made me more sure of my previous speculation.
Dong Chen broke the silence, "Aren't you, smoking meth?"
"What the hell are you thinking about every day?! How could I? When you meet that thing, won't you destroy it for the rest of your life?!" Saying that, Xiang Haomiao squatted down and grabbed his hair. Clarifying but talking to himself.Seeing Xiang Haomiao's reaction, Dongchen was sure that his thoughts were correct, and this kind of certainty made him feel his feet go limp.The usual thieves and small troubles are fine, but now...
"If you know, stay away from me." After Xiang Haomiao finished speaking, he was about to get up and go back to the house.
Xiang Dongchen grabbed him, "Don't go! There's still some help! I'll send you to rehab, okay? You can't do this!" Although he hated him, he was his cousin after all, and it was hard to wipe his ass with him for so many years. It's annoying, but I don't want to see him degenerate to this point.
Xiang Haomiao shook off his hand, "Don't shout loudly, you are afraid that others will not know, right?"
"I just want others to know. Even if no one knows, I will call the police. If you go in for drug rehab, I will pay you to quit, okay?" Xiang Dongchen was about to cry as he spoke, and his voice became louder.
Qiangzi and the others heard the quarrel between the brothers in the house, and they pulled the two into the cramped rental house.As soon as I entered the house in the winter morning, I regretted this trip. There were syringes, leather tubes and other objects on the messy table.The tall, thin man and the hunchbacked man didn't care about being seen by them, and asked in a nonchalant manner, "Why are you arguing?"
"My little brother hasn't seen me for a long time? He just came to chat with me, and his voice became louder when he got excited. Dongchen, you go back if you have nothing to do." Winking to Haomiao, Dongchen clenched his hands and realized Realizing that the quarrel he just had would cause trouble to his upper body, he raised his eyes to see that the faces of the other people were obviously not well.
"Hey, it's the first time seeing your brother. He hasn't met us yet. Don't rush away. Didn't he say to pay you back the money? The 400 yuan you owe me should just be paid back." The tall and thin man locked the door as he spoke.
It was only early summer, but my back was drenched with sweat in the winter morning.He fumbled for his wallet.
"Hey, I have a bad memory. I chatted so much that I forgot the business." He took out the money and looked at his wallet. Fortunately, he had several thousand with him because he was going to the hospital today.Otherwise, I usually only bring change when I go out.
Xiang Haomiao watched Dongchen take out the money, and said, "Look at your memory, go home as soon as you get the money." He wanted to open the door as if nothing had happened, but the hunchbacked man blocked the door with a calm expression.
"Why are you in a hurry? I should give your brother a gift when we meet for the first time." The hunchbacked man grabbed Xiang Dongchen as he spoke.Xiang Haomiao came over to hold her back, but was pushed away by the tall and thin man.Looking at this scene, Qiangzi feels a little pity. He is not familiar with Xiang Dongchen, but he has known him since he was a child. Call the police.Sympathy belongs to compassion, he still chose to keep silent...
Xiang Dongchen felt that her life was over.When the needle pierced his skin, he knew that his life was over.I heard that addicts will feel like they are floating in the air, but he only feels this light and floating feeling, just like death.
After this bout of dizziness and confusion passed, Xiang Dongchen thought, just once, maybe, when I get home and sleep, I forget what I feel, and it is impossible to become addicted.But the tall thin man's words shattered his last hope.
"Your brother is really rich. With 3000 yuan, we can take him to play for several days."
On Sunday, Zhou Zeya sent Xiang Dongchen no reply to the message, and no one answered the phone call;
On Monday, warehouse manager Xiang Dongchen did not go to work.Phone off;
On Tuesday, warehouse manager Xiang Dongchen did not go to work.No one at home.
It was as if this person had disappeared. From the beginning, Zhou Zeya thought about how to make Xiang Dongchen happy, just like the previous few snubs. In the end, he just wanted to find out the whereabouts of this person.
For a whole week, Xiang Dongchen evaporated.The company fired him automatically in accordance with the labor law.Yan Chuan was the first to notice that something was wrong with Zhou Zeya. After he knew that Dongchen was fired for absenteeism, he realized that something wrong with Zhou Zeya was related to Xiang Dongchen's disappearance.He helped Zhou Zeya find it together.But to no avail.
Xu Jie felt that Zhou Zeya was very busy recently and couldn't find anyone outside of work.She felt that this man's heart might never be with her.When he was at work, he sent a long message to Zeya on the company's QQ, in short, it was a two-word breakup.
Breaking up is usually the last resort a person uses to keep the other party, and it is the same for Xu Jie.In the dialog box last week, Zeya only replied "Okay, I understand." He was unwilling to give too much perfunctory.Xu Jie felt that she was very sad, but she could give up, after all Zhou Zeya didn't love herself.
It's been a month, and Zhou Zeya still can't believe that a big living person just disappeared.
