Xingfu Community is a small community with only four apartment buildings and a considerable distance from the city center.The only special thing worth mentioning is that there is a psychiatric hospital next door to the community, and a little further outside the city center, there is a nursing home that is not high-end but looks quite harmonious on the surface.Next door to the nursing home is the fire brigade.

Today, the only vacant room 352 on the fifth floor of the third building in the Xingfu Community moved in a new family, namely Luo Qi.

The original owner was a writer who made a living. He specialized in writing serial suspenseful horror novelettes for a magazine.Because the original owner was about to update the deadline, the inspiration was cut off, he stayed up late for several nights, and unexpectedly died suddenly, because the deadline had passed, and the author who was under him had not yet contacted him. The editor came to the original owner's home.However, at this time, it has become Luo Qi.

The editor who didn't see the new manuscript was furious, so he started visiting every day.In order to avoid living a life of seeing each other with the editor up and down, and at the same time, in order to save Huo Bao from having to live in fear and hiding, Luo Qi resolutely chose to move.And for this reason, I chose a moving company that charges a lot but moves quickly.

The moving company has been moving furniture inside since the afternoon, Luo Qi stood downstairs, looking carefully at some of the original owner's previous works, savoring his writing style.Then try to finish the other half of the serialization within the deadline required by the editor.

Not far away, a woman with dirty sleeves is holding a cute little girl in a kindergarten uniform, with two little goat horns, and a star sticker on the center of her forehead. come over.

"Mom, what are they doing?" the little girl asked, "Why are they moving these things around?"

"Because they are moving. I heard from the landlord's grandma that they are going to move to our floor. If there are children in his family, Xiaoyu will have new friends." Xiaoyu's mother said, "If that's the case, then I don't have to I'm worried that you're bored at home alone."

Xiao Yu blinked quickly a few times: "Today is my birthday, you and Dad should come back soon, and then we will invite them to celebrate my birthday together, and then we will become good friends, so you don't have to worry about it, Mom I've been staying at home watching TV, and I've become nearsighted."

Xiao Yu's mother smiled and patted her head: "Xiao Yu is so smart, then you should stay at home and wait for me and Dad to come back."

Luo Qi sat in the passenger seat of the moving car, opened the notebook on the phone, and started typing.I typed a long paragraph, looked at it carefully, and deleted a large paragraph, and so on.

After the furniture was moved up, the moving company left fairly quickly.Luo Qi walked upstairs slowly, opened the door, the furniture was neatly arranged, but it looked a little dirty.So I called the Home Economics Center with my mobile phone and called a part-time worker.

Before the part-time worker came, Luo Qi cleaned up her bedroom, and then asked Bao Bao to stay in the bedroom obediently.

"Ding dong ~ ding dong ~ ding dong ~"

Luo Qi stepped forward to open the door, a young woman wearing a mask covered the lower half of her face, her brows and eyes exposed outside looked extremely tired, wearing gray overalls, she looked at Luo Qi awkwardly. He nodded to say hello, explained his identity with a suppressed voice, and started cleaning.

She cleaned it quickly and very cleanly, and it was done in a short while, so she left in a hurry without even saying "Dear, remember to give a good review."

Sitting in front of the computer, Luo Qi looked at the article that had only been typed a little over 1000 times, and then looked at the increasingly irritable information of her editor, sighed deeply, opened the browser and browsed meaninglessly for ten minutes, and then Open Word and start typing.I just typed a word when the doorbell rang again. Xiaoyu's mother in home clothes was standing at the door holding Xiaoyu's hand. Each of them was holding a piece of cake, a small triangular piece, neatly cut Yes, there is a big red strawberry placed upright on it.

Xiao Yu raised her head and said with a smile, "Hi Uncle, my name is Xiao Yu, today is my birthday, and this is a cake for you."

Luo Qi squatted down, looked at Xiao Yu, took the cake with one hand and touched her head with the other, and said softly, "Happy birthday Xiao Yu! How old is Xiao Yu this year?"

Xiao Yu snapped her fingers: "One year old, two years old...four years old! Xiao Yu is four years old this year, and she is studying in the second class of Huahua Kindergarten! There is still a star today!"

Luo Qi watched Xiao Yu flauntingly pointing at the stars between her eyebrows, and couldn't help poking her cheek with her finger: "Xiao Yu is awesome!"

Luo Qi took the cake, saw that the two were about to walk towards another house, stopped them in a hurry, told them to wait at the door, walked into the living room and came to the bookshelf, scanned the rows of books, and finally took the cake. A comic book was delivered to Xiao Yu.

"Goodbye!" Xiao Yu said, shaking her hand.

Luo Qi stood at the door, watched the two of them walk to another house, and knocked on the door.

A woman in a nightgown came out and opened the door. She looked at the mother and daughter with a blank expression. After taking the cake, she didn't say anything.After Xiao Yu's mother and daughter turned around to leave, the woman watched them walk into her house, and suddenly her eyes met Luo Qi who was standing at the door eating cake, and she threw the cake into the trash can at the door in a panic Here, shut the door forcefully.

After Luo Qi ate the last bite, she threw the plate and plastic fork into the trash can at the door.

After staying up for two days, I finally handed in the manuscript before the editor exploded on the spot.

Xiaoyu's parents both sell snacks on electric tricycles, and most of the time they set up a stall in a food street near the city center, and occasionally they would go to the school gate to set up a stall.Although life is relatively poor, both adults and children live contentedly and are very happy and happy.

The uncle of the property called all the tenants of the three buildings to hold a small meeting about property fees and sanitation issues.

Because Luo Qi had already delivered the manuscript and the outline of the next book had already taken shape, there was nothing else to do, so she came very early, the first one besides the property uncle, so the two started chatting when they had nothing to do.

"Luo Qi, right? A new resident of 352, right?" The uncle took out a wrinkled cigarette from his trousers pocket and lit it, then said slowly, "Remember to pay the rent on time, the two next door to you always have to delay one or two Month. You said, Xiaoyu’s family is more difficult, and it’s okay to say that it’s late. You may not know the other one, and she lives alone. Although I don’t know what she is doing, but looking at her usual clothes, He should be quite rich, but in the end he still likes to procrastinate."?

After a while, residents came one after another and sat around the table.

The uncle coughed a few times: "The property fee will increase a little this time, so don't complain to me, it's useless if you bother me about this kind of thing, this is the instruction from above. There are also hygiene issues, don't leave the trash can at the door Every time the pile is so full, the garbage collectors have said that if it happens again next time, the price will increase.”

A man in a suit and leather shoes turned on the computer, typed something on it, and said nonchalantly: "As long as the price goes up, it doesn't matter what the price is. Zhang Jing, are you right?"

A woman named Zhang Jing sat on the side with her head lowered and played with her mobile phone. She seemed to be Luo Qi's neighbor, the woman who threw the cake away.She raised her head and hesitated for a moment, and seeing the man in the suit raised his head and looked at her, he hurriedly said, "That's right, it doesn't matter for such a small amount of money."

Xiaoyu's mother stood up and said: "Although the money is not much, it is a little bit more if we have to pay it every month. It is not good to buy something with that money. As long as we usually carry the larger household garbage to the house when we go out The trash cans outside would be nice, wouldn't they?"

Luo Qi said with a smile: "That's right, there's no need to pay more for this. Moreover, doing so also makes the work of the garbage collectors more convenient."

Everyone was relatively frugal, and they all agreed to Xiaoyu's mother's suggestion when there was a leader.

Luo Qi went upstairs with Xiao Yu's mother, Zhang Jing walked up to Xiao Yu's mother, said "Poor ghost!" in a low voice, and walked away stepping on her high heels.She got closer, and Luo Qi could clearly see her eyebrows, as if she was the same person as the part-time worker who came to clean her house that day.

A few weeks later, the relationship between Xiao Yu and Luo Qi has become very familiar, and Xiao Yu often comes to Luo Qi's house to play with her Barbie doll.

One day, Luo Qi went to a nearby supermarket to buy some fruits and vegetables. When she came up, she met Zhang Jing. The corners of her mouth were a little swollen.

When Luo Qi walked to the fifth floor, she saw a scene of love and affection. Xiaoyu's father was walking towards his house with the princess holding Xiaoyu's mother, and Xiaoyu was walking step by step between the two of them with her pink schoolbag in her arms. behind.It looks very happy.

Xiaoyu's parents are very busy every day.Dad left the stall early in the morning before dawn, and mother left soon after sending Xiaoyu to kindergarten, and would not come back until around ten o'clock at night.

On this day, Xiao Yu stayed at Luo Qi's place to play, and got tired of playing all of a sudden, so she lay down on the big sofa bed to sleep.Xiao Yu's parents came to Luo Qi's place to take a look, and told him to leave Xiao Yu with him first, and the two of them would go back to do some private affairs of their own.

Luo Qi nodded, and continued to type her own words. Even if there was an outline, the place where the manuscript could be delayed would still be delayed.Suddenly, Hug, who was originally quiet, suddenly got up and walked outside, Luo Qi also smelled the smell of burning.

on fire

Right next door to Xiao Yu's house, Luo Qi hurried out, and found Zhang Jing standing next door at the door of Xiao Yu's house, with one hand on the doorknob, and a big petrol can beside her feet.Seeing Luo Qi come out, she smiled, touched the door, and even pressed her face against the door:

"You better run away quickly, or the fire will spread to that family later. This family is obviously poor, and they have to pretend every day that they are the happiest family in the world. A daughter is as precious as a baby, she might as well die."

Luo Qi opened the door of her room, woke up the sleeping Xiao Yu, and said to her: "Well, Xiao Yu will go down here first, tell the uncles and aunts downstairs that it's on fire, tell them to run down quickly, and beat Yao Yaojiu." I'll go find Xiao Yu's parents later, and then go find Xiao Yu with them."

Xiao Yu was a little sleepy, but still nodded, and went downstairs with a patter: "Then I will wait for you downstairs, I will be scared by myself, you should hurry up."

Luo Qi tied a wet towel to her face, covered her mouth and nose, and took out the firefighting equipment that the property manager put behind her gate, a small fire extinguisher.

"Don't stand here now, run down for me." Luo Qi pushed Zhang Jing who was blocking the door, and walked in.

The fire was not very big, but it was completely blocked between the bedroom and the living room, and the people inside couldn't get out at all.Luo Qi used a fire extinguisher to open a path between the bedroom and the living room, and successfully rescued the two trapped in the bedroom.

The speed was very fast. After arriving downstairs, the fire engine had just arrived. After hearing that all the people in the building had come out, they quickly extinguished the fire.

"Hey, Yaoyaoling..."

According to the first paragraph of Article 110, whoever causes serious injury or death to a person or causes heavy loss of public or private property by arson shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than ten years, life imprisonment or death.If the damage is extremely serious, he shall be sentenced to death or life imprisonment.

Luo Qi didn't understand how seriously Zhang Jing had suffered, but a crime was a crime.

After a long time, Luo Qi delayed the draft again, and the editor directly called him to urge him to start writing quickly. Luo Qi sat in front of the computer, looking at the empty pages, unable to write. At this moment, he only felt a pain in his heart. He fell off the stool.
