prison love

No matter how entangled, people always have to live.

Zhou Lin changed another job. It wasn’t a construction site or an unloading job. He worked as a waiter in a restaurant. It was a relatively easy job. He only needed to serve a plate every day. Sometimes he was very busy, and sometimes he was idle. of nothing to do.This job is relatively stable, because he has been working here for two months and has not been fired, and he thinks it is very good.

There are not many employees in the restaurant, except for the boss and him and a back kitchen and two waiters. They get along very well on weekdays, but Zhou Lin doesn't talk much on weekdays, so he feels isolated, but he doesn't care. Just take care of yourself, he and they didn't have much in common, so it's self-inflicted embarrassment to come together and talk proactively.

"Hey, do you know, I heard that Zhou Lin has been in prison!" The waiter Xiao Le chatted leisurely with others.

"I've heard it before. It's said that it's because of murder. It's too scary!" Li Tianke secretly glanced at Zhou Lin, seeing that he wasn't paying attention to them, so he said it boldly.

There were few people in the store today, so Zhou Lin found a place to sit and read a book by himself, while the others gathered together to chat. Didn't you just squat up..." Before he could say the second half of the sentence, he was stopped by someone.

Li Tianke pulled Xiao Le: "Hush down!"

"Xiao Le, you're talking too much. How can you expose people's scars?" Chef Dazhang looked like he was defending Zhou Lin, his eyes were fixed on Zhou Lin, and there was a green light in his eyes.

Zhou Lin listened to what they said, and didn't make a sound. He knew what Dazhang was thinking. He looked at Dazhang with this kind of eyes on the first day he came, like a wolf staring at his food.Zhou Lin pretended not to know, so he didn't care.

Xiao Le glanced at Zhou Lin again, seeing that he was engrossed in reading, he started gossiping again: "Do you think that if we provoke him one day, will he kill us too?"

"Don't talk nonsense, what you said are just rumors and cannot be taken seriously." Dazhang watched Zhou Lin's reaction and pretended to whitewash him.

"Where there is no wind, there is no wave. I heard from others that he worked on the construction site before and was fired because his hands and feet were not clean..." Xiao Le retorted unconvinced, and couldn't help raising his voice again.

Zhou Lin still didn't respond. He was used to it. No matter where he heard that he had been in prison, people would discuss him behind his back, spread rumors, and he would be fired soon.

Zhou Lin put down the book in his hand, got up and went to the bathroom. When passing by them, he glanced at them indifferently. He obviously didn't say anything, but Xiao Le and Li Tianke felt that Zhou Lin was warning them. It's scary!Xiao Le and Li Tianke shrank their necks.

Only Dazhang felt that Zhou Lin's look was so attractive just now that he almost wanted to take his soul away, so he got up and followed Zhou Lin to the bathroom.

After the two of them left, Xiao Le couldn't control his mouth anymore, and said in a loud voice: "Da Zhang really can't wait, seeing Zhou Lin like that, maybe one day he will do him..." He said Shaking his head, he felt that his imagination was too rich.

Zhou Lin came out of the bathroom after washing his hands. Dazhang was waiting at the door. He wanted to follow in just now, but Zhou Lin locked the door with a bang. He could only wait for Zhou Lin outside without going in.

"Brother Zhou Lin, why do I think you are so beautiful?" Dazhang stretched out his tongue and licked his lower lip with a wretched expression. Just now he was thinking about what to say to Zhou Lin, and then blurted out this sentence.

Zhou Lin looked at him as if he was mentally retarded. He really didn't want to pay attention to this person, so he wanted to pretend that nothing happened and walked over.

Da Zhang grabbed his sleeve and refused to let him go, "Xiao Zhou, you also know what I'm thinking, how about having sex with me once and I promise not to pester you again?"

Zhou Lin pulled out his sleeves and said a word: "Get lost."

"Hey, don't be so unfeeling, anyway, I just said something nice to you just now." Dazhang didn't give up, Zhou Lin's looks were too good for him, and he really didn't want to have sex with Zhou Lin once.

"I don't need you to say nice things." After Zhou Lin said this, he was about to leave. He was not the kind of person who casually slept with anyone.

"If you don't sleep with me, I'll frame you for stealing..." Dazhang rolled his eyes and threatened Zhou Lin maliciously.

Zhou Lin said in his heart, this method has been used on him several times, and it is outdated.Every time the boss believes that others don't believe him, there is no way, who sent him to prison, it seems that he has a face that is not a good person.

"Whatever." Zhou Lin finally left with just these two words.Anyway, he is used to it. Although this job is easy, it is not impossible to change it.

Zhou Lin took the initiative to resign with the boss that night. Instead of waiting for someone to frame him and let the boss kick him out, he might as well leave on his own initiative. It would save trouble for everyone.

The slum where Zhou Lin lives has everyone. After living here for a few days, he changed his original thinking that "the people living here are all people who want to change the status quo and live a better life".

The neighbor on his left is a woman who sells outside, with a three-year-old son who is congenitally mentally retarded and seriously ill. He has to use this quick way of getting money to raise medical expenses for his son.

The neighbor on the right is a man who also sells outside. He is more senior than the woman on the left. He goes to places like nightclubs and earns a lot at a time.Zhou Lin didn't understand why he lived in such a crappy place after earning so much money.

Opposite is a dead house. Zhou Lin also heard this word from others. He has never seen what the neighbor opposite looks like. If the lights in the house were not on and off, he would have thought that there was no one on the opposite side.I heard that the person inside is a game player and relies on games to make money.

Zhou Lin is not familiar with them, and he has not spoken to them for so many days. There are more than ten people in the slum, and everyone's work and rest are different. They rarely have the opportunity to meet, even if they meet Can't speak either.

It was already very late, Zhou Lin glanced at the clock he bought with the first pot of gold, it was already twelve o'clock, but the music outside was deafening, with no intention of stopping.Everyone here leaves early and returns late. According to Zhou Lin's observation, except for him, the dead house, and the person playing music, no one else is there at this time.

And neither he nor the dead house would say anything to his behavior of calling in the middle of the night and not sleeping and playing music, so every time this person is unscrupulous.

Zhou Lin wanted to stop him, after thinking about it, forget it, and lay back on the bed again, covering his head with the quilt.What other people do or do has nothing to do with him. Stopping him will inevitably lead to quarrels. He is too lazy to talk, so let's bear with it for a while. According to past experience, the music should be over soon.

When the hour hand passed two, the music finally stopped, Zhou Lin had already fallen asleep, and his other neighbors came back one after another.

There are probably people like them in every city, living in the fringes, working hard but getting no rewards, and can only linger on.

Zhou Lin stayed at home for two days and read the whole book before going out to look for a job. It seems that he always has some kind of ambition, but he really has no plans for the future.In other words, he had a plan but couldn't realize it.He wanted to learn a craft, but he didn't know what to learn, and he didn't know who would accept him as an apprentice.When he was looking for a job, others disliked him, let alone accepting apprentices.

Zhou Lin didn't understand why he had to suffer so much unfair treatment because he had been in prison, and why he always looked at him with that scared look, as if he could kill people.

Back then, he had no choice but to kill people. If he had been given a different environment, maybe he would have risen to the top and lived well in a big city, instead of struggling at the bottom of society and being looked down upon by others.

In the past, he didn't feel resentment, he killed people, he did it, no matter how he denied it, it was useless.But that doesn't mean he is a heinous person.The people he killed were also bad people. He was forced to go to a dead end before going to the point of no return, thus losing his youth in prison.

There is no absolute fairness in this world, probably because he has killed people and squatted in a house, so he deserves to be treated like this, he deserves to have no chance to make his mark, and he deserves to wander on the fringes of society.

Zhou Lin thought, if he stays in this city for another year, if the result is still the same, then he will really leave here. Anyway, he has nothing to miss, it will be the same wherever he goes, he has no home, no destination.

After returning in vain again, the neighbor on his right finally couldn't stand it anymore, and persuaded him in a toneless tone: "Why bother, you are not as good as a dog after suffering like this, looking at your face and figure, you can definitely earn money if you sell it. Quite a few."

Zhou Lin didn't take his words into his heart, and just said something like a joke: "I'm not afraid of ruining your job." This kind of tone is rarely used by Zhou Lin. There were too few people talking, and he was in a good mood today.

The man said "cut", turned around and went back to his room.

Zhou Lin also entered the house. There was no food at home, so he had to make instant noodles again.

Zhou Lin inexplicably thought of what the man said just now, and thought it was ridiculous, just like him, he has no skills at all except his face, and no one wants to sell him.The only face is always said not to be a good person.

Zhou Lin really didn't have anything. Needless to say, his family background, that thing was far away in the sky for him.He doesn't even have the most basic diplomas to survive in society, so he can only do jobs that don't require much education and work as coolies.

For a while, he felt that he really couldn't survive, and he thought about becoming a monk, at least he could eat and drink, and he wouldn't starve to death or freeze.But then he heard people say that being a monk requires at least a high school diploma, so he gave up. He didn't even finish junior high school... Besides, he didn't know if the temple would admit people who had been in prison...

The noodles were soaked, and Zhou Lin ate them in a few mouthfuls. To be honest, he always felt sick when he ate instant noodles, but he didn't know what to eat without instant noodles, and there was nothing he could eat outside. He can eat one or two meals but can't afford to eat every day... He can't afford a pot, otherwise he can cook some meals by himself, although he is not sure whether the food he cooks can be eaten.

"Dong dong dong", someone knocked on the door, Zhou Lin opened the door, and saw the woman on the left, leading the child, "Sorry, I need to go out for something, can I trouble you to watch the child for a while?" The woman's tone was so pitiful that Zhou Lin nodded involuntarily.

strangeness.Zhou Lin said to himself, usually he is not a soft-hearted person, he would die if someone fell down on the road, but this time he will help this woman, maybe she and the child are really too pitiful.

Zhou Lin doesn't know how to coax children, and there are no snacks at home, not even a piece of candy. He can only take out books and tell stories to the children, but the children don't seem to understand...

Zhou Lin put down the book, patted the child's head, made what he thought was a "laughing" expression, and said, "Uncle, will you play games with you?"

Maybe it's because Zhou Lin didn't make this expression often, and the child...was frightened and cried.

Zhou Lin: "..." I'm going to cry when you're like this.

The author has something to say:

Zhuo Xingyuan: Someone wants to sleep with my wife?It is tolerable or unbearable!

Lin Lin: That's right, so don't sleep with me tonight!
