Restricted Doomsday Syndrome Chapter 75: When walking home
The battered van broke down before entering the downtown area.
Approximately as time and scope increase, the mysterious power of expelling outsiders gradually weakens, and pedestrians gradually appear around. Zuojiang parked the car in a dark place with foresight. Looking over from here, the yellow light of the street lights shrouded in a place like another world.
It is quite clear, warm and calm water. We seem to be covered with dirt, and we must clean ourselves before entering the pool of water, otherwise we will have a sense of incompatible guilt.
I picked up Sakiya and got out of the car with Zuojiang. Zuo Jiang wiped off the blood splashed on his face with the clothes of the dead, then packed the confiscated spoils and blended into the crowd with me in his hand. On the whole, we didn't appear to be embarrassed, but we were carrying girls and made some pedestrians look sideways, but they didn't see the difference, so they looked away after staring twice.
There is no chasing soldiers behind, and the peaceful night view of the city surrounds us. I want to breathe the air of freedom, and I am full of fulfillment and joy for the time being.
"There is no direct bus stop in front of home." Zuo Jiangduan said, looking at the bus stop sign.
This is not the way I used to go home. The surrounding scenery is a bit strange. The city is not too big, but not everyone will remember all the routes.
I wanted to call a taxi, but I felt my pocket and didn’t have enough money.
"Go ahead, maybe there will be a car after two stops." I said.
So we hit the road. I followed a very vague sense of direction. About ten minutes later, after passing an intersection centered on a huge flower bed, a familiar high-rise building turned to the front building and appeared In our eyes.
It turned out to be here. When I think about it this way, I seem to have a vague impression, but I can’t tell whether I have been here or not.
But as long as the building is set as the coordinates, you can't go wrong.
was silent along the way, a kind of independent peace and beauty that made me not want to speak.
We got on the bus at the second intersection. The bus on this road does not go directly to the door of the house, but passes through Sakiya’s house, which is already the route closest to the door of the house. Because the driving route was a bit remote, there were not many passengers in the car. I put Sakiya in the seat beside me, and I had nothing to do, and chatted with Zuojiang sitting behind me.
"Where is Zuojiang's home?"
"Home?" Zuo Jiang was surprised, a little distressed.
"What's wrong?"
"I am an orphan. I lived in an orphanage in a northern city before I was six."
"Ah, sorry." I said quickly.
"No need to apologize." Zuo Jiang laughed, "It's not a sad thing, but when someone asks where is home, I don't know how to answer it."
"That's it."
"How do you say, because there is no memory of parents at the beginning, so I don’t think it’s hard work to have no parents."
She seems to mean that because there is no comparison, there is no way to talk about good or bad. I am an only child, and I have a very good relationship with my parents, so even if I can understand her words literally, I can't let it go emotionally. In novels and movies, even an orphan like Zuojiang will feel lonely and jealous when seeing a harmonious family. Although the mouth is easy to say, is this really the case?
Of course, I also know that it is quite rude to speculate about others in accordance with my own way of thinking. Moreover, the other party does not seem to need sympathy or comfort.
"The city where the orphanage is located is Zuojiang's hometown?"
"I don't know. The household registration was originally there, but it was later transferred."
"After?"
"Well, for various reasons, I have stayed in many cities. Of course, the source of life is provided by others. Apart from restricted activities, the treatment is still quite good."
She said so vaguely, I can't even imagine what kind of life she is living. However, it can be judged from her words that her life after the age of six is different from that of most orphans. Generally speaking, if orphans stay in the orphanage until they reach adulthood, they will be adopted by families who are hungry for children. However, Zuo Jiang's vague tone and statement indicate that he is not like that.
"Walking around", "Others provide living expenses", "Activities are restricted", "Good treatment"-this kind of statement is usually dependent on the description of a certain organization. For general family and social welfare institutions, it is not It is too likely to use such a vocabulary.
may not be a legal organization, maybe it is a triad. I couldn't help but think so. Because illegality is always mixed with uneasy factors, living in such an environment must have difficulties that I don't understand, right?
Because of the harsh environment, I have to commit a crime, and then pretend to be a mental patient in order to avoid the criminal law. I think so because although she says she has a split personality, she basically sees it from their words and deeds. Less than the crazy symptoms of mental patients.
The clues learned from Zuojiangkou can be connected vaguely, but the accuracy rate is unknown.
I was a little sad, and the atmosphere became a little heavy because of it.
"Fujie said, she had fought black market boxing." I knocked on the side.
Zuo Jiang burst into laughter.
"That was a lie to you." Zuo Jiang said so, and paused, "However, it is not entirely a lie."
"You said that, I don't understand."
"In short, it's delusion." Zuo Jiang smiled.
"Hey?" An unexpected but reasonable answer.
"Because we are mental patients. However, although we have not actually experienced it, but relying on delusions, the experience we get is infinitely close to reality."
What is this? I was speechless.
"It's amazing, isn't it? This is also a kind of talent, a talent of delusion."
"Tomie's talent... is it a delusional talent?"
"No, it's my talent." Zuo Jiang said, "I call it a delusional experience."
is really a fantasy.
However, Zuojiang and Fujiang are two sides of the same body, Zuojiang’s talent is not Fujiang’s talent, and many amazing conjectures can be deduced from this statement.
stop here, guesses are always guesses.
Thanks to the gift, the atmosphere becomes subtly softened. Regarding them~IndoMTL.com~ I don't want to pursue it at all, because they will only be fooled by those vague words and sentences. Maybe they never thought of being honest, so I can't be so ignorant.
may have difficulties.
Maybe one day they will tell me.
A person’s past is very important, but not entirely necessary.
I don’t think my past is worth mentioning, so I didn’t want to let them know my past?
I hope she is looking at me now. Therefore, I will also look at her now and in the future. She is by my side now, and will be by my side in the future, that's enough.
Unconsciously, the scenery outside the car window became very familiar, as if returning to his own territory, a feeling of peace of mind grew in my heart.
Just then, the sky suddenly became brighter.
The dry and unconventional smell sent by the wind makes people frown unconsciously.
There was a commotion in the car, and everyone was suspiciously looking for the source of the abnormality.
"What's that...?" Someone suddenly yelled from the seat on the other side.
Zuo Jiang and I looked at each other, ran to the opposite side with the others, and looked in the direction that person pointed.
The red light illuminates the deep night sky.
The black plume of smoke shot straight into the sky.
There is an unknown burnt smell in the air.
"There is a fire, there is a fire over there!" Someone yelled: "Call the police."
The car is like a pot of boiling water, and the passengers' eyes widened.
Very familiar scenery, that direction is where we are about to get off. The building in the memory is blazing hot from the window, and the blazing flame spreads upwards at an unexpected speed like oil.
