MVP in the next examination room

Drunk people's mobility and agility are far inferior to those of sober teenagers—the drunk who wanted to open a ladle for Yuan Che in a fit of anger not only failed, but Yuan Che held his hand instead.

Yuan Che tightly gripped Yuan Ming's wrist, and moved his hand holding the wine glass to the opposite side.

Although Yuan Ming's reaction was not very quick, his strength was not weak.He raised his left hand, grabbed Yuan Che's shoulder and pushed hard. Under the force, Yuan Che had to let go and take two steps back.

Yuan Ming, whose cerebellum was paralyzed by excessive alcohol, also staggered a few steps, barely supported the table and stood firm, gasped for a few rough breaths, and hissed: "It's against you——"

The glass broke away from the owner's hand, rolled twice on the edge of the table, and finally fell headfirst onto the dining table, colliding with the tiles and making a crisp sound of shattering, a few glass shards broke out and fell to Yuan Che's feet.

Yuan Che kicked it aside indifferently, and sneered, "It's a pity that I didn't hit my head, right?"

The furious Yuan Ming took two steps forward, raised his palm and wanted to slap Yuan Che again, but was pushed by Yuan Che on the shoulder, and suddenly lost his remaining balance, stumbled a step back, and sat on the broken buttocks. on the glass sheet.

Yuan Che looked at him condescendingly: "Don't waste your efforts."

At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, although the clothes on the body are thicker, they are not invulnerable armor after all.Under the dual effects of alcohol and evil fire, Yuan Ming didn't even care about the pain. He stood up unsteadily on the edge of the table, sneered a few times, then turned around and opened the glass door between the dining room and the balcony.

The balconies of the old houses are still open, not to mention the protective net, and even the cement platform is less than half a person high.

In the coldest winter, a layer of ice can form on the table.At this time, there were only a few pots of half-dead flowers and plants on it, and the bottom of the table was basically used as a storage room. Screwdrivers, hammers, and pliers were thrown in a pile in a mess.

Yuan Ming walked to the concrete platform of the balcony with three steps, bent down, not knowing what to grab.

The lights in the restaurant were still dark.Taking advantage of the faint light coming in from outside, Yuan Che stepped over the glass with faintly shattered light spots, and stood by the balcony door, a dark thought flashed through his mind.

That thought may have been demonstrated hundreds of times in the dream, and when it was aroused for the first time, it immediately caused a response like a mountain roar and a tsunami in his heart, almost making his body tremble slightly.

Right now—no one will see it, just the two of them.

Yuan Che clenched the corners of his lips, the night outside the door flashed in his eyes.

……

While struggling, Yuan Ming had already taken out a wrench, supported the concrete platform with one hand, and was about to stand up.

As soon as he turned around, the wrench in his hand was grabbed by someone.Yuan Che asked coldly: "What do you want to do?"

Yuan Ming pulled the wrench towards him forcefully, cursing in his mouth: "You little bastard, it's against you, you dare to fight me..."

Yuan Che also put in more effort to grab the tool that was about to become a murder weapon.The two of them refused to let the other go, and they were at a stalemate in the narrow balcony for a while.

Yuan Ming took a deep breath, raised his leg and kicked Yuan Che's knee——

*

Half an hour after Yuan Che left the west of the city, the cell phone left at his grandfather's house buzzed and vibrated again.

Grandma Yuan Che searched for it for a long time, and finally found it in his wife's coat hanging on the hanger.

Grandma muttered to herself: "This kid, you left in such a hurry, you even forgot your phone..."

She narrowed her eyes, moved the screen away, and pressed the answer button.

Dong Meng's voice came from the phone: "I called you twice but didn't answer, where are you now?"

Yuan Che didn't set a note name for Dong Meng, so the caller ID is a string of numbers.Grandma can't always remember such a long string of mobile phone numbers. In addition, she has poor eyesight when she is old. She is always used to listening to the other party first, and then distinguishing who it is.

Grandma was slightly taken aback when she heard Dong Meng's voice, and then said, "Oh, are you... isn't Che Che at home? He said he was going home, and the phone was left with us."

Dong Meng, who was resting in a corner of the factory locker room, asked doubtfully, "Go home? When did he leave?"

*

Yuan Ming's kicking movements were much slower and clumsier than before.

Sensing his intention, Yuan Che immediately let go of his grip on the wrench, and retreated.

Yuan Ming, who exerted too much force, lost his center of gravity and fell directly backward——

His tailbone hit the edge of the concrete platform heavily, and his upper body leaned out of the balcony.

At that moment, the anger on Yuan Ming's face turned into fear, and he waved his hands indiscriminately, as if trying to grab something.

The wrench in the right hand fell off and hit the ground with a muffled sound.He couldn't reach Yuan Che, who was one or two steps away, so he could only grab it hard by his side——

It did catch something, but it was just a lingering plant.

Yuan Ming's face was full of shock and bewilderment. Under Yuan Che's gaze, he fell off the balcony.

……

The whole process took only a few seconds. From the struggle to the fall, Yuan Che's eyes were always calm.

He thought he would be secretly thankful, relieved, and happy that a nightmare was over - but he didn't, for a few seconds, his heart was completely empty, like a dream that wasn't real .

He stood there for half a minute before he remembered to walk to the cement platform and take a look below.

The family courtyard was deserted, except for the vague figure lying on the ground, there was no one else on the road.

Yuan Che thought in a daze: It seems that he has to collect a corpse.

He stuck his hands to his pockets, and when he was about to make a call, he realized that he forgot his phone with his grandpa.

There is no landline at home.Yuan Che hesitated for a moment, turned around and went out, intending to borrow a neighbor's mobile phone to call 120.

The household opposite was not at home for some reason.

He remembered that there was a student from Shengzhong living in the east house on the second floor, so he knocked on the door of that house, and just said "borrow your mobile phone to use it", Dong Meng, who had slipped back from the factory, went up to the second floor.

The student named Haohao hesitated, and before he could choose a reason between "I'm sorry I don't have a mobile phone" and "It's a pity that my mobile phone just ran out of battery", Yuan Che helped him push the door tightly, mouth Li said, "No, thank you."

Haohao: "?"

Intuition made Dong Meng feel that something was wrong with Yuan Che - he obviously went to the west of the city, but came back halfway, and left his mobile phone at his grandfather's house.At this moment, I borrowed someone else's mobile phone downstairs again.

She stared at Yuan Che suspiciously: "What's wrong with you?"

Yuan Che stretched out his hand towards her and said, "Call me first."

Dong Meng was full of hesitation, clutching his phone and refusing to give it: "You tell me what's wrong first."

Yuan Che sighed silently, looked at Dong Meng who was standing several steps down the stairs, and said calmly, "Yuan Ming fell downstairs."

He said this in the same tone as if he said "the clothes fell downstairs" or "the flowerpot fell downstairs."

Dong Meng only felt his scalp explode, and there was a "buzz" in his head: "You said... what?"

*

The ambulance arrived quickly, and the screaming and flashing of the alarm lights alarmed some neighbors. Many residents of other units wrapped up their coats and rushed from their homes to watch the scene.

The third floor is neither high nor low, if you jump down by yourself, you may be saved if you are a little bit older, but Yuan Ming went down on his back, with the back of his head on the ground.

The doctor first stepped forward and touched the side of his neck, but he could no longer feel his pulse.

There were no vital signs, and in situ rescue was ineffective, so there was no need to go to the hospital again.

The good neighbors who watched were unwilling to be idle. From Yuan Ming's unlucky landing posture, they quickly deduced the conclusion that "it was not suicide"-after all, the willing fall on the back is generally only used in scenes in TV dramas.

So they spontaneously called the police.

*

After the roars in Dong Meng's head passed, a chill came up his back, accompanied by the numbness on his scalp that hadn't dissipated, profoundly explaining what it means to be creepy.

For a long time, she was so frightened by the thought in her mind that she couldn't speak.People in white coats came and went in front of her eyes, Dong Meng's eyes were empty and dull, after some time, she suddenly remembered something, pushed Yuan Che quietly, and said in a low voice: "Go, don't come here Wait here, go to your grandpa's house first."

Yuan Che stood still, with a self-deprecating smile on his face, lowered his head and asked Dong Meng, "What are you afraid of?"

Dong Meng glared at him in shock and anger, and couldn't tell what she was afraid of, and there was no time to say it—the police had already arrived at the scene and began to collect evidence and investigate.

……

It was early morning when we left the police station.The two couldn't return to their original residence for the time being, so they found a nearby hotel.

The mother and son were silent all the way, until they entered the room and closed the door, Dong Meng asked tremblingly: "You tell me the truth...is it you?"

Yuan Che looked tired: "What is it me?"

Dong Meng's voice trembled more and more: "He was drinking, why did he open the balcony door...why did he fall like that, and...why did you suddenly come back from the west of the city?"

Yuan Che rubbed the space between his brows wearily, and then let out a sigh: "I really want to do that, does it count?"

Dong Meng opened his eyes wide: "You..."

"I didn't push him." Yuan Che interrupted her, turned his face away, his voice was full of indifference, "Why should I be buried with him."

Just because you want to do it doesn't mean you actually did it.

The matter of dying together, he might have really done it in the past.

Yuan Ming left unexpectedly, without a suicide note, and did not leave any useful last words.He has no brothers and sisters, and his parents left early, so it is needless to say who will inherit the property.

Yuanming's so-called wish of "retirement for the elderly" can be regarded as half fulfilled - before retirement, he will be sent to the end first.
