Chapter 7 Understanding

In the bathroom.

After solving certain physiological needs, Yang Chu walked to the bathroom and turned on the faucet.

During the most days of sitting in the library, although he did not consume any water or food, he still needed to eliminate body waste like ordinary people.

The only difference is that his metabolism gradually becomes controllable from the fact that ordinary people are unaware of themselves.

After washing his hands, Yang Chu raised his head and looked at the familiar and unfamiliar face again.

On the thin face, some tired red silk gradually appeared on their eyes, and the bags in their eyes became more obvious.

Perhaps because he woke up from the journey through time last night, his brain kept staying awake for a while, or because he invested too much energy in reading various books in the library today, Yang Chu could feel a little dizzy.

Although this dizziness is very mild, it makes Yang Chu feel a little out of control about the breathing, circulation, walking and movement system in his body.

Yang Chu held another handful of water and patted his cheek.

The cold water flows across the cheeks and skin. This way of refreshing the mind when ordinary people are sleepy is not obvious for Yang Chu.

He can control the nervous system by itself, and can block the brain whether it is pain or other stimulation.

"Um?"

But when Yang Chu stroked his fingers through the water, he suddenly thought of some contents in the book that he had read today, and his eyes lit up slightly, "Maybe you can try this method."

After coming out of the bathroom, Yang Chu saw that the lights in many areas of the library had been turned off, but there were a few lights still on near the door.

After passing through rows of bookshelves, Yang Chu walked to the door and saw Xu Xi, who was working in the library, sitting in front of an empty table, eating takeout with a spoon while reading a book.

The title of the book is exactly the book "Why We Born Here" that Yang Chu saw before.

"So hardworking, I'm still reading books when I eat."

Yang Chu walked over and sat down in a seat next to Xu Xi.

"Anyway, I'm alone, I can read more books when I eat here."

Xu Xi smiled and put down the book "Why We Born Here" in his hand, and pointed to a lunch box on the table next to him, "I ordered an extra night for midnight snack, don't you mind..."

"certainly."

Yang Chu reached out to pick up the lunch box from the table. He could see the other party's kindness, and even considered the tactful words he might refuse.

Open the lunch box and it is a very ordinary fast food, a portion of rice, half a goose leg, and a few vegetables.

Yang Chu did not move his chopsticks immediately, but instead reached out to Xu Xi and said seriously: "Yang Chu."

A bright smile appeared on Xu Xi's face, and he once again said his name, "Xu Xi."

After the two met officially, Xu Xi watched Yang Chu pick up a portion of vegetables as he moved his chopsticks, and said, "Actually, I have been in the library for so long, and I rarely see anyone who is as focused on reading as you, especially those you read."

"You have seen it all? The reading range is very wide. What are your experiences?"

Yang Chu slowly took a bite of the rice, slightly surprised.

The books he read this afternoon were all about sleep and subconsciousness. To be honest, no one could read such books, but there were definitely not too many.

"I can't say, I'm just looking for a feeling."

The spoon Xu Xi seemed to pause, and suddenly she showed a shy smile of habit, "Eat, eat first."

"I'm going to close the door. If you like reading, you can borrow a few books."

After the two had fast food, Xu Xi got up to deal with the lunch box garbage, and said to Yang Chu who was standing next to him.

"No need, I'll come again tomorrow." Yang Chu shook his head.

After leaving the municipal building, the sky was completely dark, the lights of various billboards on the streets were flashing, traffic flowed, and crowded.

"Then I'll go back first." Xu Xi said goodbye to Yang Chu.

"Thank you for treating me to dinner." Yang Chu nodded, but before the other party was about to leave, he suddenly asked again, "By the way, do you know where is the closer swimming pool?"

“The Sham Shui Po public swimming pool is not far from here.”

Xu Xi did not ask Yang Chu why he was looking for a swimming pool, but pointed to the road ahead, "Go along this road about 170 meters, turn left and enter Yuanzhou Street, walk another 250 meters, turn right to Tokyo Street, and then walk about five or six hundred meters to get there."

"Okay. If you can't die, you will come back tomorrow."

Yang Chu waved his hand and walked in the direction Xu Xi pointed.

"Except for the sudden violent heartbeat of the numb feet, every second, every four heartbeats, no change at all, and as precise as a machine, it's interesting!"

In front of the municipal building, Xu Xi looked at Yang Chu's back as he left, smiled and whispered, shook his head, turned around and joined the crowd behind.

"Like a person with a story."

Yang Chu, walking on the bustling streets, felt that the other party was not that simple as Xu Xi, whom he met in the library.

I don’t know if it was because of the disappearance of the subconscious mind or other reasons, Yang Chu became more sensitive when he took the initiative to observe and approach a person.

He could see that Xu Xi seemed to have an indescribable strange temperament under his shy and gentle face.

If used for comparison, it feels like "a poetic and literary spirit is naturally elegant", but although Xu Xi looks like a bookish look, it is not entirely true.

It seems like a kind of peace and calmness hidden in his bones, and will not be easily moved by anyone or anything around him, as if it is like a deep pool. No matter what the outside world is, he is always calm.

...

The sound of a banging stick hitting sounded.

In a closed warehouse, seven or eight young men with strong and fierce faces were surrounding two blue-faced figures on the ground, constantly punching and kicking.

In the open space not far from the two, there was a silent corpse.

"Stop hitting, Brother Sha, please stop hitting."

A figure lying on the ground seemed to be beaten up completely. Suddenly, he turned over and pushed away the two crowds that were beating him, and rushed to a man in a suit sitting on a folding chair behind the people.

The man in the suit had an exquisite silver earring on his left ear, and a bearded face. He wore a pair of black sunglasses. He looked at the figure kneeling in front of him and pulled down his sunglasses a little, saying indifferently: "Feizaidong, where do you and you, the fool, want to go?"

"Go to the big...No, Brother Sha, it really doesn't matter to us."

Fei Zaidong, whose face swollen into a pig's head, knelt forward with a snot flowing, as if he wanted to hug the man in the suit's legs and beg

The man in the suit kicked Fei Zaidong away with a kick, and said indifferently: "Everyone knows that Awei is following our Brother Tai, and it is my Asha's brother. Tell me, are you two killing Awei?"

"No, no..."

Feizaidong shook his head repeatedly, his face, which was swollen so much that his eyes were almost invisible, showed a look of horror, "Brother Wei was not the one we killed."

"Really not?"

The man in the suit took away the sunglasses on his face, and a bit of fierceness burst out from his eyes, "Awei went to find you two that day. Who else isn't you? I think that crazy guy is quite big, was he doing it?"

"No, Brother Sha, how dare Longzai and I kill Brother Wei? We still want to follow Brother Wei in the future." Feizai Dong waved his hand and begged.

"Stop talking nonsense, who is that?" The man in the suit, known as Sha Ge, became a little impatient. He reached out and took out a short knife from his pocket and started playing with it.

"It's Wuyuzi, Brother Sha." Feizaidong shouted almost crying.

"Mulberry--" Brother Sha seemed to have not thought of this name at once.

A little brother next to him came over tactfully and whispered in Sha Ge's ear: "Brother Sha, the mullet is a fellow Taoist Cheng. Daocheng bought a batch of goods last week, and there were a lot of them, and it was not too late to disperse. As a result, three days ago, Daocheng and his gang of subordinates were suddenly killed, and only this mullet escaped. After receiving the wind, Brother Tai asked Awei to shave this mullet, wanting to ask where the batch of goods before Daocheng was hidden."

"Yes, yes, it's just mullet."

Feizaidong seemed to hear the conversation between the two and said repeatedly, "It was Wu Yuzai who killed Brother Wei. He was dead, but he was alive again..."

"What died and lived?"

Brother Sha frowned and pointed the short knife in his hand at Fei Zaidong, "You can make it clear."

"That day, Brother Wei called me to find me and asked me to help him find someone. Longzai and I were also lucky. We ran into Xingdi, and then we tied him to a warehouse on Qinglongtou. After we tied the person, we went to call Brother Wei and drove to the warehouse..."

Speaking of this, Fei Zaidong subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and his swollen face showed a look of horror, "I... After we arrived, I found that the mullet was dead. Brother Wei personally checked it and asked me and Long Zai to dig a hole to deal with the body. But... But... the mullet was alive again... zombies..."

"Zombie, your mother is like a zombie..."

When Brother Sha heard the back, he kicked Fei Zaidong away with another kick. He obviously didn't believe what Fei Zaidong said at all, "I see that you are stupid when watching movies. I'm pretending to be a zombie to scare me."

"Really, Brother Sha, believe me."

Fei Zaidong looked excited and frightened when he saw that Brother Sha didn't believe it. "That mullet has really turned into a zombie. Brother Wei hit him with a stick, but was kicked to death by Mullet..."

As he said that, he shouted at the figure curled up in the corner from behind, "Long Zai, do you think so, mullet has really turned into a zombie."

"Zombies, zombies, it hurts so much, it's bleeding--"

Long Zai, who was also bruised and swollen, had no idea what Fei Zaidong was saying. He just heard the conversation and agreed a few words, then covered his bloody nose and started to talk to himself.

"Shitline!"

Brother Sha stood up from the folding chair and was about to speak-

Bee bee bee bee—

A slightly harsh ringtone rang.

Standing by the warehouse, a little brother in a suit took out a big brother from his waist. After a few sounds, he walked to Sha Ge and said, "Brother Sha, Brother Tai asked you to go back, saying that something happened to Fatty Tong in Saigon."

"knew."

Brother Sha waved his hand and said to the little brother in front of him, "Let the brothers below find the one named Wu Yuzai, and then notify Awei's family."

"Yes, Sha Ge."

The little guy in the suit responded, pointed at Feizaidong and Longzai and said, "Then these two..."

"Chenhai, let's wear suits and tie now, don't make it so bloody. With these two people accompanying you, you won't be lonely on the road."

Brother Sha tidied up his suit and walked out of the warehouse first.

"Brother Sha, don't want it, let me go!"

Fei Zaidong, who was kneeling on the ground, heard this and struggled to stand up from the ground.
