I, President Pa, start to salt fish

late spring.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the bustling metropolis is the time when the lights are bright.

Pei Ran, who was dressed in a black suit, came out of the company's gate, and a warm spring breeze rushed towards him.

On his handsome face, a pair of perfectly shaped peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed.

The familiar surroundings had changed, and he realized that winter had passed before he knew it.

"Manager Pei, congratulations on getting a big order today. Why don't you go have a drink to celebrate after getting off work so early?"

A man and a woman walking behind Pei Ran walked up quickly, walked to his left and right consciously, praised him as "C position", and talked to him with a smile on their faces.

Pei Ran turned his head, with a business expression unique to a "brick mover".

Professional, elite, gentle and polite with a proper sense of distance as a boss.

While being amazed by his outstanding appearance, people dare not underestimate him.

"Thank you. I won't be able to do it today. My brother is looking for me. I'll go and see him. I'll make an appointment another day. I'll treat him."

Pei Ran smiled kindly and politely, which completely made people feel bad, and lived up to his nickname of smiling tiger.

Everyone knew that Pei Ran's parents were divorced, and he never mentioned his family, except for his precious brother.

When the colleague left, the expression on Pei Ran's face was like a day in June, and it changed in a blink of an eye.

300 million!

300 million!

Pei Ran calculated the balance of the deposit after the salary and bonus came into the account, and couldn't help feeling elated.

Then it all turned into an uncontrollable smile rising from the corner of his mouth.

After being happy for half a minute, Pei Ran finally returned to normal, and his facial features returned to the perfect positions they had deliberately trained.

He took out his mobile phone and prepared to call his younger brother Pei An. When the other party sent him a WeChat message, he was busy and didn't bother to reply.

Before his call was dialed out, the phone rang first.

It was a string of unfamiliar numbers, Pei Ran hesitated for two seconds before answering.

Although he already had a hunch, but thinking that there was a [-]% chance that it was a call from work, he still couldn't miss it.

"Hey?"

"Xiaoran, what's the matter with you? Why did you block me again? I'm your father, you heartless, unfilial son! Do you want to get rid of your old father? I raised you so much, you now After earning money, shouldn’t it be filial to me? Look at your mother, did she take care of you after the divorce? She has a second child now, and she doesn’t have you in her heart..."

Before Pei Ran could hang up the phone, the phone had already been turned off in a sensible manner.

Look at the phone with a black screen for two seconds.

Pei Ran pressed it twice but there was no response. Only then did he realize that he was really overjoyed today. Mistakes like the phone running out of battery had all appeared in his life.

The car was sent for maintenance and has not been brought back, and there is no power bank with me.

Fortunately, he always had the habit of bringing hundreds of dollars in cash with him for emergencies. Without much hesitation, Pei Ran prepared to take a taxi to his brother's place.

Today is such a day worth celebrating, it is unreasonable not to have a midnight snack to celebrate with the family.

Go out of the business district and walk to the side of the road.

In the window of the boutique next to it, a model with a standard figure is wearing a trendy brand, dressed more like a person than a person.

Pei Ran's passing footsteps stopped for a moment, and his eyes stayed on it.

Pretty, but expensive.

I have savings, but I am reluctant.

Before the battle between heaven and man in his mind started, he was strangled in the cradle by Pei Ran himself.

Just this one piece of clothing is enough for him to buy a house and save two extra floor tiles.

Save as much as you can, the suit he bought for work is not cheap, and he can fight for another two years without any problem.

After taking a taxi to the neighborhood where my brother lived, this house was naturally not his home.

Pei Ran and his younger brother Pei An were not born by the same mother. The house here was left to him by Pei An's mother.

Walk into the familiar neighborhood and go up to the fourth floor.

Pei Ran knocked on the door, but after waiting for a while, no one answered. He glanced at the time, his brother who is a night owl must not be asleep at this point.

A few more knocks.

It sounded like there was movement inside the door, but the door didn't open for a long time, and I didn't know what it was doing.

He didn't intend to call Pei An's name, for fear of disturbing the neighbors across the door.

After waiting for a while, the door finally opened.

In the middle of the night before summer, Pei An appeared in front of his brother fully dressed.

It looks like he hasn't fallen asleep yet.

"What are you doing, opening the door so late?"

Pei Ran lifted his foot and walked in. As soon as he entered the door, he smelled the scent of toilet water so strong that it made him take two steps back.

"Etc., etc!"

Pei An hurriedly stretched out his hand and pulled the person who had just entered the door out, with a cute and innocent smile on his face: "Brother, I just knocked over the toilet water bottle, please don't go in, the smell inside can choke a person to death."

Pei Ran went back to the door and took two deep breaths of fresh air before feeling like returning to the world.

"Are there mosquitoes this season?"

Otherwise, what would Pei An use toilet water for?

He muttered a word, but he didn't think much about it. He went straight to his purpose while speaking, "Go and open the window to diffuse the smell. Are you hungry? I'll order a takeaway. What do you want?"

"Brother, you want supper, why don't we go out to eat, the smell at home is too bad, everything you eat smells like toilet water, vomit, just thinking about it makes you want to vomit!"

Pei An said, turned around and took the key, and pushed Pei Ran downstairs.

"Brother, you have been too busy to come here recently. You didn't know that there is a new barbecue restaurant downstairs. It tastes so good."

Pei Ran wore an expensive suit, and originally wanted to order takeaway to eat at home, but seeing his younger brother's appearance, he didn't refuse any more.

Just ask him to get himself a power bank.

Pei An responded, turned his head and ran upstairs, and soon ran back again, with a smile on his face, and held out his hand.

"Here you are, brother!"

That face is half or six points like him.

Fortunately, this child's temperament is not like him, he is not too much affected by his parents' affairs, he is not serious, and lives an innocent and happy life.

Pei Ran reached out to take it, and touched the top of his brother's head with a smile.

That smile, as if the ice and snow had melted, and the spring had suddenly appeared, suddenly added three points of color to his already superior face.

Pei An watched, then lowered his head.

His elder brother has always been so dazzling and good-looking, even in the crowd, no one can ignore him.

It wasn't until the shop that Pei An mentioned that he regained his energy.

The two brothers ordered a table of barbecue.

The shop owner seemed to be quite familiar with Pei An, and had been sizing up Pei Ran.

Not only did he bring food, but he also wanted to come over and chat for a few words, but Pei An pushed him away with a playful smile.

Chatting while eating, Pei Ran was really in a good mood today, and he revealed a little bit about his work.

"Brother, you are too powerful to make so much money!"

Pei An looked at his brother full of admiration.

"You study hard, and you can be so good when you work."

Pei Ran knew that his younger brother's academic performance was not as good as his. It might be that Pei An had him as his elder brother's backing, so he didn't work as hard as he did in everything, and he didn't take his studies so seriously.

Every time he couldn't help but say a few more words.

Pei An immediately lowered his head, not daring to look into his brother's eyes, and gave a soft "hmm".

This scene that happens between the brothers from time to time always miraculously ends with the younger brother's well-behaved promise.

Pei Ran didn't have time to think too much. It's normal for a child to not want to be lectured when he grows up.

After eating and drinking enough, Pei Ran transferred 3000 yuan of living expenses to his younger brother without asking.

"When you run out of money, tell my brother, don't save too much at ordinary times. When you should go out with your classmates, you should go out to play and make more friends."

In school, if you are too out of gregarious, you may be treated as an outlier.

Pei An collected the money with his mobile phone, and showed a big smile to his brother.

"Brother, don't worry, I have friends, and I won't be bullied at school."

Pei Ran thought so too, his younger brother was always different from him.

After returning home after supper, Pei Ran did not send him upstairs at Pei An's considerate request.

Watching the lights in the stairwell go up step by step, Pei Ran didn't turn to leave until the room on that floor was also lit up.

He took a taxi to go back to his residence, but before he got in the car, he realized that he was still holding his younger brother's power bank and forgot to return it.

I don't know when he will come next time.

The power bank is also a necessity in life, and my younger brother will definitely use it on a daily basis. He took it away, and the child may buy another one.

This is a waste of money and unnecessary.

So, Pei Ran turned around and entered the community again, and went upstairs to return the power bank.

He knocked on the door, and within a few seconds, the door opened.

"Hey, the boss delivered the food very quickly today... Uh... hiss!"

The one who opened the door was a blue-haired man with a fragrance of toilet water.

He looked about the same age as Pei An, with a cigarette in his mouth, standing crookedly, and looking into the room while talking.

When he turned around and saw Pei Ran's face unexpectedly, he was so shocked that he dropped his cigarette.

The cigarette butt landed straight on the instep of his foot, which was only wearing flip flops, causing him to gasp in pain and jump up and down.

"Pei An's friend?"

Pei Ran's expression turned cold in an instant.

With such a familiar tone, no one would believe that he was not a friend of the people in the house.

Lan Mao covered his feet and bent his body like an upright prawn. He opened his mouth and wanted to tell another lie, but when he met Pei Ran's eyes, his eyes immediately drifted away.

This man is so scary...

Pei Ran didn't say another word of nonsense, she pushed people aside and walked in.

Most of the thick and frightening smell of toilet water in the room had dissipated, and the smell of tobacco and alcohol mixed in it finally took over again.

Straight into the person's nose.

When Pei Ran looked up, he saw six or seven colorful heads clustered in front of the sofa in the living room, and the bottles and cans on the coffee table were tilted here and there.

Several takeaway boxes have bottomed out, and the bone garbage is in a mess.

Pei An, who was spit flying and bragging, suddenly felt something was wrong. When he looked up, he saw his brother standing there, looking at him coldly.

"elder brother……"

elder brother?

The crowd of lively people looked up in unison.

Standing there in a suit, Pei Ran, and the tasseled suits in this room, seemed to be a collision between a certain high-end brand launch event and a small vegetable market in the north of the city, forcibly kneaded together by this accident.

The contrast is extraordinarily dire.

Pei Ran looked away, put the charging treasure in his hand on the cabinet at the entrance, then turned and left.

When Pei An, who was feeling anxious, saw this, only one thought flashed through his mind.

It's over, his brother is angry.

However, before he could organize his words, Pei Ran had already turned around and left.

There is not a sentence that tries to persuade someone to "get back from the wrong way".

The brotherhood that Pei An thought was unbreakable was suddenly so fragmented that it was not as good as paper.

The friends around him pushed him: "Pei An, is this your brother? He just left like this, is he okay?"

Pei An just woke up like a dream, and he didn't care about anything else, so he ran after him.

His brother will be fine, but his living expenses will be fine in the future.

His brother is the only one, he thinks about it now, thinks about his father's set meal that has been blocked all the year round, he doesn't want to be the heir.

Pei An ran fast and finally caught up with Pei Ran before he got into the taxi.

"Brother, I was wrong, listen to my explanation!"

The corner of Pei Ran's mouth twitched. Looking at his younger brother's appearance, he felt both familiar and unfamiliar.

It's been too long since he took a good look at this younger brother. The change in this child is greater than the scenery in spring.

It turned out that he looked quite similar to their father.

If you want to explain it next, it will probably be quite similar.

Pei Ran didn't have much interest in listening to that bunch of time-wasting nonsense, he got in the car and wanted to leave, but Pei An insisted on pulling him.

The driver looked at the situation, and under the balance between watching the gossip and making money quickly, he let go of the exhaust and left.

Pei An hugged his brother and did not let go, tears were already falling.

"Brother, those people are just neighbors in the community. They occasionally come to play with me, and I don't usually hang out with them. I haven't imitated bad habits. You have to believe me!"

Pei Ran twitched the corner of his mouth, and said to himself, look, isn't this a guess, is it roughly similar to what his father said.

It was almost too urgent to use family affection to suppress him, scolding him for disregarding brotherhood.

After coming out of his younger brother's house, Pei Ran's mouth never opened again, and the sarcasm at the corner of his mouth seemed to be frozen on it.

He listened to the nonsense that made him want to spit out all the supper that he had just eaten, and exerted a little force on his hand to shake him away.

He didn't listen to what Pei An shouted behind him, he just prepared to cross the road and go to the opposite side to take a taxi.

In the middle of the night, there was no one on the road. Pei Ran walked halfway, and suddenly a motorcycle jumped out from the slope. The speed was so fast that he had no time to react, and he was directly knocked out.

It fell back to the ground with a bang.

The locomotive drove more than ten meters, and drove back with a flick.

With a creaking sound, the brakes stopped in front of Pei An.

"You are crazy!"

Pei An's face was ashen, he looked at his brother lying in a pool of blood helplessly, and then looked at his friend riding a motorcycle and roared.

His voice was also trembling, and the veins on his forehead and neck popped out all of a sudden.

He was full of fear that if he killed someone, he would go to jail.

"I'm not all for you!"

Huang Mao, who was riding a motorcycle, was also trembling. He stopped the car, walked to Pei An's side, and gave him advice, reeking of alcohol when he spoke.

"Didn't you say that your brother has a bad temper? Look at him just now, can you still get money from him in the future? Think about it, it's better if he dies. You are your own brother, and the money he left is also worth it." It should be given to you, and it is enough for you to eat."

Pei An: "But we killed someone, the police will definitely come to arrest him..."

Huang Mao pinched his shoulder: "What are you afraid of! As long as you get the death certificate and burn the person, nothing will happen. I know all those people, and I will help you fool them!"

……

Pei Ran, who was spinning around, finally stabilized his mind after being in a daze for a long time.

As for his body, he was hanging in the air, looking at himself who had fallen to the ground without moving, he thought, probably he would not need to worry about his body any more in the future.

The soul and body are separated, he must be dead.

Pei Ran looked at all this blankly, feeling distressed that his suit was covered with dust.

They may all be broken and cannot be worn anymore.

Pei Ran was floating, with nowhere to go, so he could only follow Pei An.

Watching him take advantage of the middle of the night when no one was there, he moved his body back upstairs with someone, cleaned up the blood, pretended to find him dying suddenly the next day, and cried to find someone to handle the funeral.

For the first time, Pei Ran discovered that his younger brother's acting skills were much better than his father's.

Whether it's carrying a dead body into the community at night, acting in the scene where the caring brother brings back the drunk brother, or in front of outsiders, playing the image of a poor child who has lost his only relative.

The listeners are simply sad, and the listeners cry.

The appearance of Pei An holding the corpse and not letting go, and the reputation of being harmonious and friendly among brothers, coupled with the clumsiness of a group of yellow-haired people who seemed to follow over to watch the fun, and the persuasion of contemptuous neighbors, a quarrel After getting everyone's head buzzing farce, they actually got the death certificate and sent the body to be cremated quickly.

Even if someone felt strange afterwards, it was too late.

In his family, except for his younger brother who was an accomplice, none of his parents seriously pursued the cause of his death, as if his sudden death from overwork was a perfectly normal thing.

Even if he didn't see the last side of the corpse, he didn't pursue it.

His father remembered to go to his company to ask for a compensation.

Pei Ran watched coldly all the way.

He doesn't care about everything, whether it's the two men who once occupied an important position in his life, or his own mother who wanted to leave after just a stick of incense.

He just felt sorry for his money, which he had saved little by little since he was a child, and he had already predicted that they would be defeated in the future.

Chest tightness.

In the mourning hall where the urn was placed, the sound of suona playing mournful music became louder and louder, covering the voices of the ex-Pei family couple who were quarreling at the same time when they finally met again after many years.

Pei Ran clutched her "chest", feeling that she was about to be sent away.

His head also hurt violently.

Until, suddenly there was a choking voice next to his ear, which made people mistakenly think that it was a man's voice who had come to the palace.

"surprise!"

"President Pei, happy birthday!"

Pei Ran opened his eyes suddenly, and was sprayed with sequins and petals by the fireworks tube in his hand.

There are bright lights, balloon ribbons, huge cakes, and a room full of happy smiling faces.

Pei Ran's ears were ringing with loud suona sounds, but his brows were furrowed.

What's happening here?

Is the efficiency of modern reincarnation so high now, skipping the part of birth directly, and seamlessly starting a new social animal life?
