[Comprehensive] Bewitching life

Taipei in July can basically be described as "hot summer".Sometimes it rains, but unfortunately after the rain, even the wind is hot. Someone did an experiment, put raw eggs on the ground, and after a while, a hot "soft-boiled egg" came out.

There are four people in the Jiang family. The head of the family is Father Jiang, the housewife is Mother Jiang, the elder brother Jiang Zhishu, and the younger brother Jiang Yushu.

After breakfast, Jiang's father was ready to go to work with his briefcase, and Jiang's mother saw her husband out at the door, then turned around and came back to pack the tableware.

"Brother," Jiang's mother was a beauty when she was young, and now she still has a girlish heart, and her words and deeds are naturally cute: "I suddenly remembered, do you have any other plans for the holiday? If not, let's go on a trip, shall we?"

"Going to travel again?" Jiang Zhishu inherited his mother's beauty, not only handsome features, fair skin, handsome and stylish, but also carried forward to grow to the current height, completely breaking through the genes of his parents: "Didn't you travel last year? So tired .”

Jiang's mother disagreed with her son's theory: "We want to celebrate your junior high school graduation. You will be a high school student in two months."

Jiang Zhishu didn't know what was wrong, with a dejected and expressionless face, looking forward to the younger brother sitting next door: "Whatever."

Mother Jiang, who has long been used to her son's "natural mourning", clapped her hands together, and said happily, "Great, where are we going? When Dad comes back at night, we have to make a plan. Brother, do you want to go?" The place?"

Jiang Yushu originally planned to speak with his eyes full of light, but from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of his brother's not at all happy, so he insisted on raising his dark, chubby and cute little face, cleared his throat, and said in a very put on air : "It doesn't matter."

"Just tell me where you want to go," Jiang Zhishu obviously knew his brother very well, took a bite of bread, and said, "Everyone can go together."

Hearing this, Jiang Yushu was immediately very happy, blinking his dark and round eyes: "I want to go..."

Before he finished speaking, the doorbell rang at home, Jiang Zhishu got up to open the door, and when he came back, he carried a big package and came back with a rare smile on his usually expressionless face.

Jiang's mother knew what was going on with her son when she saw him like this, she elbowed her younger son, winked, and jokingly said, "Brother, did it come from a 'friend' again? This time it was a little earlier Woolen cloth."

Jiang Zhishu, who was opening the package with scissors, didn't notice his mother's expression, and didn't feel anything after hearing it.

"Well," agreed perfunctorily, and opened the letter inside: "Perhaps there are fewer parcels at the post office these two days."

Mother Jiang and her youngest son looked at each other, and Jiang Yushu also covered his mouth and snickered, it was rare for his brother to be so stupid.

"That's right," Jiang's mother said with some teasing in her tone: "Speaking of it, it's much better recently. It used to take two months each time, and I lost it once. I remember that time, my brother almost demolished the post office. It made me and my father have to apologize."

This time, no matter how stupid Jiang Zhishu was, he understood his mother's ulterior motives. When he looked up, he saw his mother and brother with the word "gossip" written on their foreheads. He was speechless for a moment: "Is it strange? That year I was just ten years old."

The implication is that a ten-year-old child, not to mention sticking to the door of the post office, will not be surprised even if the post office is really demolished.

Jiang Ma: "If it's someone else's child, I don't think it's weird at all. If it's you, brother, I'll feel weird."

Jiang Zhishu: "..." If this wasn't his own mother, he might roll his eyes at her a hundred times.

"Brother," Jiang Yushu was still young and had no interest in such "scandals": "What did Sister Yifei send?"

Chu Yifei would send a lot of things over every time, except for those that were not allowed to be sent by regulations, basically everything for food, drink and entertainment.

My younger brother was about to stretch his short neck to become a giraffe, Jiang Zhishu took out the snacks in the box and shared them, Jiang Yushu cheered, and happily began to share with his mother.Although Jiang's mother wanted to gossip about her son's emotional life, she could only watch helplessly as Jiang Zhishu returned to the room with a suitcase in his arms, and closed the door with a "bang".

Jiang Zhishu returned to the room, turned on his computer, checked his e-mail, and sure enough, there was a new e-mail.

There was a very brief email content on it, but it made Jiang Zhishu very happy, Chu Yifei's family moved back to Taipei!

Strictly speaking, Chu Yifei and Jiang Zhishu are not childhood sweethearts, at most they were classmates many years ago.

... Kindergarten students.

Later, the two of them went to a primary school, halfway through, Chu Yifei transferred another school because of his family.

Since then, the two have relied on such an ancient way to communicate.No way, communication between the two sides of the strait is not convenient, and long-distance calls are super expensive.That is to say, with computers and e-mails, it will be more convenient to contact in the future.

Counting them down, they haven't met face to face for ten years, a handwritten letter in one or two months, plus a package, and one or two emails a week. ——The two chatted like netizens for a full ten years.

Most people would not believe it, even Jiang Zhishu himself found it unbelievable and ridiculous.

Except for a few more letters, some food, books, handicrafts, and a few hand-painted pictures, it doesn't make much sense.

It happens to be true again.

Jiang Zhishu, who always thought he was very rational, complained silently to himself: "Habits are terrible."

-

In the evening, when Jiang's father came home, Jiang's mother announced that everyone would go out to play together, and Jiang Zhishu announced that he would stay.

The whole family was a little stunned. Although Jiang Zhishu did often pour cold water on him, he usually cooperated with a straight face. Anyway, he didn't really smile much.It is a bit surprising that a pot of genuine cold water was poured today.

"Brother," the chubby Father Jiang touched his belly, with a bit of a puzzled expression on his face: "You really don't want to go?"

"I really have something to do." Jiang Zhishu's eyes were full of seriousness: "Just go and have fun."

Jiang's mother wanted to know why, but his son said so, which proved that he would definitely not go with them or tell them.Everyone discussed it and had to agree. Anyway, Jiang Zhishu can cook by himself, and he has hands and feet, so he won't starve to death.

In this way, the Jiang family went on a foreign trip together, and Jiang Zhishu stayed at home alone as an empty-nest high school student.

A week later, it was the day Chu Yifei and Jiang Zhishu made an appointment to meet, and Jiang Zhishu went to the appointment wearing a newly bought short-sleeved shirt.

The two made an appointment at the Taipei 101 building, which is a relatively distinctive landmark building.There is a shopping mall in the podium, with a total of six floors, and a coffee shop on the fourth floor. Jiang Zhishu and his classmates went there when the mall first opened this year, and the environment is good.

At [-]:[-], Jiang Zhishu took the seat at the entrance of the coffee shop, where he could see the people who came in at a glance.

At ten o'clock, Chu Yifei's figure did not appear in the coffee shop. Jiang Zhishu glanced at his watch and sat quietly.

At 10:30, the waiter had come to ask several times. Jiang Zhishu ordered a cup of coffee and asked about the surrounding coffee shops.He can be sure that he has not written the wrong name, and there is no coffee shop with the same name nearby. This one is very close to the elevator, so he can't miss it.

At eleven o'clock, the coffee was finished, Jiang Zhishu paid the bill, stood up and walked out.After walking two steps, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned his head and told the waiter who received him just now, if a girl came to Jiang Zhishu, please wait a moment.

After leaving the coffee shop, Jiang Zhishu found an internet cafe on the same floor, and spent money to get on the computer, but there was no new mail in his e-mail box.

【Where are you?

I didn't wait for you at the coffee shop.

What's wrong? 】

Jiang Zhishu typed the simple three lines for a long time.Every time it is typed, it is eliminated again, and a new vocabulary is changed, and then typed again.

After sending it out, I waited for 1 minute and there was no reply.

Jiang Zhishu turned off the computer, got off the computer, and walked back to the coffee shop.

At twelve o'clock, Jiang Zhishu ordered a pasta and a glass of juice in the coffee shop. The taste was not very good, but he ate it.

At one o'clock, Chu Yifei didn't come.

At two o'clock, Chu Yifei didn't come.

three o'clock...

There are quite a lot of people in the mall, people come and go, bustling, but no one calls Chu Yifei.

At four o'clock, Jiang Zhishu, who drank another cup of coffee, paid the bill and went to the next Internet cafe again.

There was still no reply, and there was only a photo taken by Chu Yifei in the new home in the mailbox. There was no house number, and the address could not be found.

In the photo, Chu Yifei smiled with crooked eyebrows, wearing a simple white short-sleeved shirt and a long skirt. She should be a very innocent age who doesn't think about anything, but there is something thoughtful in her eyes.

She is obviously not the most beautiful, but inexplicably, you will think that she is beautiful, full of aura.

-

Jiang Zhishu didn't see Chu Yifei in the end that day, and in the following days, Chu Yifei had no news at all.

Jiang Zhishu went to the police station. He was a minor, and he was not a relative of Piao Yifei, and it had nothing to do with him. The police would not file a case.

Under wild thinking, Jiang Zhishu went to the hospital, not just one, but many hospitals.

He asked if any young girls had been sent here in a car accident on the appointed day—the answer was, of course, no.

For a month in a row, when the rest of the Jiang family came back, Jiang Zhishu still couldn't find Chu Yifei.

Suddenly one day, when Jiang Zhishu was going to a hospital by bus, he passed a residential area, and he saw Chu Zhai.The architectural style and some details here are exactly the same as the house in the photo sent to him by Chuo Yifei.

When parking at the next stop, Jiang Zhishu jumped out of the car and rushed to the house he just saw.

After pressing the bell, Jiang Zhishu waited with his heart beating like a drum.

The door opened, and a girl about his age came out, pure and beautiful, but also slightly arrogant.

The girl was wearing hot pants and short sleeves, and she looked like she had just come out of the house. When she saw Jiang Zhishu, her arrogance disappeared instantly.She stepped forward, her big eyes sparkled with curiosity, and her voice was soft: "Hello, who are you looking for?"

"Hello." In fact, Jiang Zhishu, who usually likes to have a cold face, was very polite: "Excuse me, is Chu Yifei here?"

The girl who was showing a hint of sweetness just now pulled her face down instantly: "There is no such person here, you are looking for the wrong one."

"Boom!" The door was closed, leaving only Jiang Zhishu standing outside the door in a daze.

Jiang Zhishu thought for a while, and pressed the bell again. After 2 minutes, the girl's voice came from inside.

"Hey, I told you that there is no one or two fees here, I warn you, if you disturb my house again, I will call the police!"

After finishing speaking, being obedient was shut down, Jiang Zhishu frowned, then turned around and asked the neighbor next door, and even asked about the photo.

The neighbors didn't know much about it either, they just said that the girl in Chu's family was fierce and quarreled with her younger brother every day, and she wasn't the one in the photo.

Chu Yifei also has a younger brother, but she said that she is very good with him and sometimes skateboards together, which is completely contrary to what the neighbors said.

It's so strange, the surname "chuu" is actually rare, and the family relationship is the same, there are too many coincidences in this family.If Jiang Zhishu hadn't clearly remembered what happened when he was a child, he would even have suspected that "Shu Yifei" was just a liar.

Jiang Zhishu planned to wait and see, to see if the host and hostess of "Shujia" were the uncles and aunts he remembered.

Unfortunately, not long after, two uniformed policemen came over: "Student, what are you doing here?"

Unexpectedly, the girl really called the police.

"It's nothing." Jiang Zhishu's face was very calm: "I'm passing by, I'll be leaving soon."

The two policemen looked at each other suspiciously: "What's your name? Which school do you belong to? Do you have any documents?"

Jiang Zhishu has already graduated, but he is always running to the hospital these days, and in order to prove himself, he always brings his graduation certificate with him.

"My name is Jiang Zhishu, a graduate of Dunhua Junior High School. Here is my student ID card. What can I do?"

Jiang Zhishu was polite and looked like a good student. He handed out his graduation certificate, which had full marks on his grades.

...Taipei City, no, No. [-] in the province?

This, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like a pervert.
