Chapter 593 The Urban Routine Is Deep
At the school gate, Su Bai smoked one cigarette after another. It was the peak time for students to go to school. Many students walked past Su Bai. The two guards in the guard room stared at Su Bai, seeming to hesitate. Do you want to go up and advise the smoking gentleman not to smoke standing at the school gate so as not to have a bad impact on the future flowers of the motherland?
However, when they just decided to walk out, a police car drove over and the man got into the police car.
The two young doormen were a little stunned when they saw this scene.
"Are the police so friendly and attentive to the people now that they would be taken back to the station even if they were standing in front of the school to smoke?"
Sitting in Chu Zhao's car, Su Bai chose a comfortable position for himself, leaning his head against the car window, his eyes a little wandering, as if looking at the street scene flashing past outside the window or in an aimless void. .
Chu Zhao's hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. He didn't speak, and Su Bai didn't continue to ask.
What we want to go to now is the cemetery.
No matter what happened, no matter what the explanation was, it seemed that the best ending was right there, in front of Xun'er's tombstone.
"I have no more cigarettes." Su Bai suddenly said.
Chu Zhao was surprised and looked a little panicked. The police car suddenly veered out and almost entered the wrong lane. There happened to be a traffic policeman on duty next to him, but he pretended not to see it. Although they were not from the same department, they were selling each other Saving face is always necessary.
Passing his cigarette to Su Bai, Su Bai shook the cigarette case, then bit a cigarette without lighting it.
Chu Zhao handed over his lighter, but Su Bai ignored it and just chewed the filter tip gently.
In fact, tobacco no longer has any anesthetic effect on Su Bai's nerves. The reason why he smokes sometimes is probably just a habit like scratching his head and shaking his feet.
Chu Zhao seemed very nervous all the way. Although he was trying his best to restrain himself, he still showed a sense of unnaturalness.
Although he rose up the ranks in the criminal police team, Su Bai knew that many times, Chu Zhao still looked too young in front of him.
In the story world of "Mr. Zombie", when Su Bai appeared, Chu Zhao had already passed out. At that time, when Lu Tong and others left, Chu Zhao chose to stick to it.
Even though Chu Zhao knew that his strength was not enough for the blood corpse, he still did not choose to leave, but continued to stay with Xun'er.
At that time, Su Bai was slightly surprised in his heart.
In a trance,
An emotion that I had been indifferent to for a long time was gently touched at that time.
In the circle of listeners, stabbing each other in the back and killing fellow Taoists rather than dying as poor Taoists is the real theme. That kind of stupidity, that kind of naivety, that kind of persistence in choosing to face death for the sake of so-called friendship, for absolute For most listeners, it is already a bit distant and unfamiliar.
These chicken soup stories for the soul that are often sung and appeared in various magazines and publications may be quite common in the real world, but among the audience in the world of stories, they are as rare as a feather.
only,
people,
After all, it will change. Even if Chu Zhao chose to stick to it and face the danger with Xun'er, it is very likely that the scene and time will change again and Chu Zhao will be given another choice.
Did he kill Xun'er to fulfill himself? Or do they both die together?
Anyone else would probably struggle again in their hearts.
Just like when Wang Jingwei was a patriotic and progressive young man, he sacrificed his life to assassinate senior officials of the Qing court, but later became the Japanese's lackey; many of the more famous student leaders in the May 4th Movement were later They all entered the Wang Puppet regime, but the "traitor" owner of Zhaojialou, who was mentioned in the middle school history textbook as "burning the Zhaojialou", refused to accept the invitation of the Wang Puppet government.
People's choices and value orientations often really change over time.
Chu Zhao may not know that Su Bai, who was leaning his head calmly against the car window at this moment, was actually thinking about how he would be interrogated and dealt with in front of Xun'er's tombstone later.
Now that the man has passed away, Su Bai doesn't have much impulse to avenge Xun'er. Yes, whether Su Bai wants to admit it or not, he really doesn't have that impulse to seek revenge anymore.
If Xun'er was really killed by another audience, then so be it.
Let yourself become a beauty in anger, kill a few listeners, and then be pulled into the world of punishment stories by the broadcast again.
Too tired,
Too much trouble,
Su Bai didn't have the energy to continue doing this kind of thing.
This may be the laziness of human nature, or it can be called the selfishness of human nature. Su Bai felt that he had done enough and tried his best.
Now, what I may need to think more about is,
If the future is determined, then should you strive for it now? Try hard or not? What else is the difference?
This is the most despairing thing.
When you get back, just burn the auspicious painting. There seems to be no difference between having that painting and not having that painting. Seeing the future picture, no matter how hard you try, it can't change at all, that's the most tiring thing.
The cemetery has arrived,
The desolate atmosphere, the desolate scenery, the clean bluestone aisles,
When Su Bai and Chu Zhao were walking here together, Su Bai suddenly felt that everything here was exactly the same as the scene in the painting in his memory.
even,
Every fallen leaf that had not been swept away, and even the wind that happened to pick up when passing the third row of tombstones, were exactly as remembered.
After working hard for so long, I finally risked my life and the blood corpse to count every second. In the end, I couldn't even change the established trajectory of a fallen leaf.
This is really frustrating.
"This is Xun'er's tombstone." Chu Zhao probably got the location of the tombstone from Xun'er's relatives.
Su Bai stopped and looked at the tombstone carefully. The tombstone was still a bit new. In the photo, the beautiful woman was smiling like a flower.
Suddenly he remembered Xun'er's request to him, that is, if she died in the story world, Su Bai would be responsible for helping her choose a good-looking photo to put on the tombstone.
This photo is pretty good.
Death was like a lamp going out. Su Bai slowly squatted down in front of the tombstone, stretched out his hand to rub the edges of the tombstone, and no longer felt the beauty's warmth. There was only coldness left in the touch.
The girl who would stand there with a smile to pick her up from the plane, the girl who said she wouldn't mind being a stepmother for her son, the girl who would cook for her, the girl who liked to follow her and pull her when she was young. The girl who plays real CS,
Gone.
"I don't know when I will die." Chu Zhao said sadly.
You are going to die now.
This sentence echoed in Su Bai's heart,
originally,
Su Bai had no intention of killing Chu Zhao, but it seemed that he was moved by the situation, or maybe he was disgusted by Chu Zhao's self-questioning. In short, Su Bai really had the urge to smash his head open with this guy who obviously had something to hide.
From beginning to end, from the beginning to now, Su Bai never denied that he was an emotional creature. Many times when things came, some pros and cons, some punishments would be left behind by Su Bai.
When Su Bai slowly stood up, Chu Zhao was still talking to himself, "So, I chose a tombstone for myself, right next to this one."
Su Bai frowned slightly and looked to the side. He saw a brand new tombstone with a photo of Chu Zhao on it. The photo was taken by Chu Zhao in police uniform. He was very energetic and sunny.
"And this is for you, Su Bai."
A familiar voice sounded from behind Su Bai, and Su Bai turned around suddenly. Just now, Su Bai was completely immersed in sadness, and did not even release his consciousness to scan the surroundings.
Therefore, when this woman walked behind him and spoke, Su Bai really noticed her arrival.
Xun'er was wearing a black dress, a plain flower on her head, and a white pearl necklace around her neck. She was looking at Su Bai with a smile.
this,
all of these,
what is going on?
Su Bai was a little dazed. Even at this moment, he suddenly had a short-circuit in his thinking, because the scene in front of him completely destroyed all Su Bai's previous mental construction.
It was not because Xun'er's "resurrection from the dead" was such a huge surprise to Su Bai, but because Su Bai seemed to see traces of changes in the future.
Although the picture was still the same and nothing seemed to have changed, Su Bai had a hunch that, in fact, it had changed.
"You will definitely not be able to spot the lies Chu Zhao made up, because you basically don't look at Moments or other social chat software. In fact, if you look through it yourself, you will find that Chu Zhao lied to you."
Xun'er walked up to Su Bai and seemed to be very satisfied with Su Bai's shock.
Immediately afterwards, Xun'er's face touched Su Bai's chest:
"I have chosen a cemetery for the three of us. Although our relationship is becoming more and more distant now, I hope that one day, after we die one by one, we can still be neighbors together, and we can joke together like we did before. , let’s play together, even if we are ghosts, let’s float out of this cemetery together to eat kebabs and drink beer at the barbecue stalls at the night stalls.”
Su Bai was startled. He saw his own tombstone on the left side of Xun'er's tombstone.
Immediately, Xun'er deliberately lowered his voice and gritted his teeth angrily:
"Also, you bad guy, you actually put your hand into someone's stomach at that time. In the future, if you get drunk one day, even if someone wants to take the opportunity to have something happen with you, will you still feel that way? Will the shadow just die?"
"Maybe." Su Bai lowered his head, subconsciously trying to find Xun'er's lips. He vaguely remembered the taste of Xun'er's red lips last time.
"Virtue!"
Xun'er pushed Su Bai away, pointed at Chu Zhao and said, "Hey, someone has been snickering next to you for so long. Have you laughed enough?"
"without."
Chu Zhao continued to smile while wiping his tears.
At this moment, the three of them really felt like they were back in time.
