Water lanterns and dreams in 1 nights

Corresponding to the concept of "I", everyone looks at everything with self as a reference. As long as it does not hinder oneself, everyone doesn't care too much about other people's personalities.When it comes to how to develop interpersonal relationships, one of the inevitable requirements is to be "good at being a listener", because people are more willing to be listened to than to listen to too many things about others, and only have pity for themselves, even the little things they have suffered. Shame is always on the mind, and the recognition of someone who has suffered greatly can be quickly forgotten.I was originally a boring person, and I couldn’t keep up with trendy topics. If I showed myself in front of everyone, and the fact that I didn’t care about others was exposed, then if no one wants to associate with me, from what level? It's a big trouble.

Maybe what I did was out of character and too boring for Elo, and on the other hand, I could also see his words as innocent remarks that have not been tempered by society, so I lost the patience to listen, and opened the window again, Let the strong sea breeze sweep the entire compartment.

"Is it your girlfriend who sent you here when you were watching a movie?" Elo asked abruptly.

I said it was a colleague from the newspaper office, and Elo was thoughtful, guessing that we had a good relationship, "That woman is difficult to deal with at first glance, and she has a strong will. You will not be oppressed when you are with her?"

I couldn't help laughing, I don't know why he suddenly turned to this topic, I live with him, and if I am oppressed, I can't arrange Jin Dongshu.Sensing that he was interested in this matter, I talked about the process of getting acquainted with Jin Dongshu.The opportunity is very simple. When I first joined the newspaper office, I didn't know anything about the specific affairs to be done. Wu Ji arranged for Jin Dongshu to take me. At that time, she was already one of the best reporters in the newspaper office.At the beginning, our relationship was not very good. Jin Dongshu was not very happy to be assigned this task, but he didn't say much. After teaching me all the knowledge that should be taught to me, he consciously completed the task and ignored me.I had a weak ability to approach new things, or a keen instinct for this business, and still do, more so then.I just thought it was my slowness that annoyed her, so I didn't think about it. After the internship, I bought some fruit as a thank you gift, and she was quite surprised when she received it.

After that, Jin Dongshu told me the truth. On the first day of work, my parents also came here to do business. They drove me to the downstairs of the newspaper office. They made some comments on the dilapidated appearance of the building. Jin Dongshu saw this scene , thinking that I was a young master who came to intern for a frivolous life with a frivolous attitude, so of course he was angry with me.

"'You were so stupid back then that I suspected you were trying to set me up against me.'" I repeated to Elo what she had said to me at the time, "and she told me so frankly and I'm sorry, I said 'it's wrong for me to judge people with prejudice'. I like her unyielding attitude very much. Even when she doesn't like me, she does her best. It's much better to apologize neatly than to keep everything in your head."

Elo bluntly said that the reason why I like such people is because they are easy to see and will not make me feel threatened. I admit this is one aspect. On the other hand, although Jin Dongshu is an excellent reporter, he has little peek into other people's lives. Yu, she is smart but hates to study power tactics. She devotes herself to this industry with a simple and warm sense of justice. She wants to do something for the society, so she will not think that she is superior to others.She also admits that most people only eat for a living, and thinks it is justified, she will not stand on the moral high ground and criticize others condescendingly, and she is very good at keeping secrets, you never have to worry about what she hears from you Nonsense.People with such qualities are very suitable to be friends.

Elo relaxed on the back of the car and drove, "Are you going to get married in the future?"

"It's too far away, we are not that kind of getting along."

"It doesn't matter," Elo said casually, "you're the same with whomever you're with."

I faintly felt some kind of contempt and provocation from the words, so I explained to him that it was not like that. If you want to choose a marriage partner, you still have to be more cautious. If you always have disputes with the other party, it is better not to marry.Elo casually slapped his hand on my thigh and asked, half-jokingly, what he thought of him.

"I thought you'd find me particularly dull."

Elo laughed and called me a fool, "I wouldn't tell you anything if I really thought you were boring. Can't you see that I like you?"

I really can't see it.I also thought that he was so warm and frivolous to everyone, and it never occurred to me that it was special treatment for me.I could feel the heat of Elo's hand on my skin through my pants, I took it away, Elo rubbed his nose with the back of his hand indifferently, and could only take what he said as a joke.

It is not surprising that the vehicle continued to drive, and unknowingly turned to a road that I had never been on. Even though I lived here for a year, I did not have a car and spent my time at the newspaper office and at home. Deviating from my own course of action, I didn't recognize many places, even the names.Similar to the front of my house, this road is also spacious and deserted. The trees on both sides grow tall and close together to cover the entire sky above the head. The sun casts light from between the leaves. On our faces in the car.

"Stop." I said suddenly.In the small house in the space where the street trees were out of the way, I believed I saw something strange for a moment.

The car stopped slowly, I opened the car door and jumped out of the car to walk to the roadside houses I passed by. The wind no longer flows, but is hot, stagnant and light, and the heat is clustered around me. The sun is so bright that it is almost white , shining brightly on the sunny leaves, and Elo followed me and asked me what I had found. Without saying a word, I walked down the road and rang the doorbell of the house.The electronic doorbell jingles loudly and loudly enough to wake a hibernating animal.I pressed it four or five times, but no one responded. Elo saw that I couldn’t find any result, so he poked me on the shoulder, “The window is open.”

Sure enough, the window was open, not wide open, but a little gap, enough to open it from the outside, so that the house could not be seen from the outside for a while, and a curtain blocked the inside tightly.I was about to open the window, but Elo stood beside me with folded arms and lazily reminded, "You're breaking into a private house." But I didn't see how scared he was.

I hesitated for a moment, "If everything is normal, I won't go in." I was sure I had just seen an unsettling symbol, and it flashed by before I had time to see it clearly.

I opened the window and slowly opened the pleated orange curtains from left to right. Even though I was mentally prepared, the scene in front of me shocked me, and Elo gave a soft "ouch".

There was a desk behind the curtains, and an old man in iron-faced clothes was sitting on a chair behind the desk, glaring at us, his bloodshot eyes nearly protruding, and his face was ferocious.Anyone who sees this scene suddenly will be shocked, especially on his neck, I saw several familiar red marks deeply sunken into the flesh.What I saw was strange, the wind opened the curtains and I was caught in a glimpse in the car, it should be this scene.The expression of the old man was fixed at the moment we found him, and it took us a few seconds to see through: the angry old man sitting in front of him had died.

"It's fun now." Elo was still smiling nonchalantly, as if nothing could scare him.

49. Pierrot 08

Due to occupational diseases, I brought a camera, but I didn't expect it to come in handy.

When I bent over to take pictures of the dead body of the old man from the window, Elo excitedly moved his face closer to the camera screen, "Wouldn't it be dirty to take such pictures with a camera?"

"No." I changed the angle, got closer, and focused on the strangle marks on his neck, "It's just a state of a person after life is gone, so don't be particularly disgusted."

"You are very skilled, isn't it the first time?"

"I've seen corpses a few times before."

Elo wanted to speak again, but a patrol car happened to be nearby and arrived immediately after receiving the call.

This time it's Elo's turn to take notes with me. In just half a month, it's the second time I've been the first person to make notes of a murder case. The dead were all strangled to death. I was particularly unlucky to imply that I was particularly suspicious, at least the police officer who took my record kept questioning me severely.I told you everything, from the beginning to the end without any concealment, how I went out for a drive with my roommate, and how I accidentally discovered something strange in this house on the way back from the beach. Although the other party had suspicions, before he had further evidence It's not good to say anything to me.

I finished the notes and waited for Elo to come out in the waiting room. We made the notes separately and couldn’t see the situation on the other side. I waited for a full hour and Elo didn’t find it. I began to wonder if he was I finished the transcript before I ran away.The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Elo's usual behavior might be able to do such a thing. In that case, it would be too stupid to sit here and wait. I wanted to ask someone to ask, but the police officer on duty seemed to be busy, so I decided to go again. Wait for 10 or [-] minutes, and if no one comes out, ask. Fortunately, Elo came out with a relaxed face before that. In contrast to his expression, the police officer in charge of questioning him can be said to have written all over his face. angry.I didn't know he could rebel against the police.

"Let's go." When Elloton passed me, he strode forward without stopping. I quickly walked a few steps to catch up with him and asked him what he was doing. Elo shrugged and said that the police officer in charge of him could not drive.
