It takes at least 40 minutes to walk to Lu Sheng's company from the underground rental house where he lives. If he was getting off work normally, he would definitely take the bus back. After all, it would be good to sleep a little longer after returning home. ...It’s just that there weren’t many normal off-duty jobs during this period, and most of the time he had to walk the forty-minute journey alone.
As time went by, Lu Sheng slowly found his own happiness when walking at night, that is, observing the lights of thousands of houses in the city while walking. How he longed for a light in this bustling metropolis. Lit up for himself, so that no matter how hard he works, his heart will feel full...
When he was studying before, because he had to earn tuition fees, Lu Sheng was never in the mood to see what the scenery was like along the way. He had never even taken a day off since high school... Except for the time he had to attend school, he had always tried every means to earn money. money. Before he became an adult, he used weekends, winter and summer vacations to pick up scraps and sell them for money. After he became an adult, he went to class during the day and worked in a 24-hour convenience store or restaurant at night.
After all, a person's energy is limited. Lu Sheng made money while going to school, which made him look very tired. Sometimes he was so tired that he couldn't concentrate in class. For this reason, the head teacher once talked to Lu Sheng and said that he would continue like this. Definitely not. It is the age when you are growing up. Don’t wait for the college entrance examination and your body will be exhausted first...
But the teacher was dumbfounded after learning about Lu Sheng's situation. She never thought that this boy would have such a difficult life. She wanted to help him apply for a subsidy for extremely poor students, but Lu Sheng's situation did not meet the relevant conditions. After all, this The child has a father, a mother, and a bunch of relatives, but no one is willing to spend more money to support him.
Lu Sheng didn't want to embarrass the teacher, so he said that he was young and had a good foundation, so it was nothing to endure such hardships. Besides, he believed that as long as he could get into a good university, his parents would still fund him to complete his studies. The head teacher looked at this sensible person The children feel so distressed that they don’t know what to say.
Lu Sheng's hard work paid off. He was admitted to a prestigious local university with excellent results. He thought his parents would be happy and proud of him like other parents after hearing the news, but the two of them actually It was rare for him to express his sympathy and express that he had no money to send Lu Sheng to college. His father even wanted Lu Sheng to give up his studies and go to work in a factory owned by his friend, so that he could not only support Lu Sheng himself but also subsidize the family...
Lu Sheng knew that his parents could not count on him no matter what. Fortunately, he worked hard and frugally before and finally managed to save enough for the first year of college tuition. As long as he gritted his teeth and persisted, he could study while working Finishing college shouldn't be a problem. Besides, he is now an adult and is about to become a college student. He should be able to find many part-time job opportunities.
On the day of the opening ceremony, many classmates' parents were there. Lu Sheng looked at it with envy in his heart. Unexpectedly, just when he felt a little disappointed, his mother appeared. She cried and asked Lu Sheng not to resent herself, saying that she Life is not easy now. In the end, Lu Sheng was given a brown leather satchel, asking Lu Sheng to study hard and not forget her mother when he became famous one day.
Lu Sheng cherished this satchel very much. He was not willing to take it out and carry it when he was in school. Only later when he started working did he officially take out the bag and use it, because in his heart, it represented all his mother's love and blessings for him. , he feels that carrying this satchel to and from get off work every day is like his mother always being with him.
At this time, Lu Sheng passed by a recycling station where scraps were piled. Because he had picked up scraps in high school, he was quite familiar with this place. He knew that this was a transfer station for scraps. Every morning, there would be staff who would collect stranded scraps. The bundled waste cardboard was loaded into a truck and transported away. Some time ago, when he was tired from walking after get off work, he sat on a bunch of square waste cardboard to rest... At that time, he imagined that if this four-four How wonderful it would be if the square scrap of cardboard could be a bed! .net
Lu Sheng's biggest dream in this life is to have a home of his own. There is a big bed of his own in the home. He can roll around on the bed unscrupulously. He doesn't have to be careful even when sleeping, for fear of making anyone unhappy. life will be difficult...
Just when Lu Sheng was looking at the recycling bin, he was greeted by
An old man who had gotten up early to go fishing came over. The radio hanging on his waist was broadcasting an urgent news, "Corpse investigation: On the 15th of last month, an unnamed corpse was found in a suburban scrap collection station. Male, He is 172c tall, about 25 to 45 years old, with short hair, wearing a black, white and gray plaid shirt and a white T-shirt on the upper body, khaki casual pants on the lower body, a pair of dark blue canvas shoes, and a brown A leather shoulder bag, and a black belt watch on her wrist. If any enthusiastic citizens provide information on the source of the corpse, cash rewards will be given..."
When Lu Sheng and the fishing uncle passed by, the other party suddenly shivered for no reason. The uncle immediately pulled up his collar and walked quickly forward. As the fishing uncle walked further and further away, Lu Sheng gradually began to listen. I don’t know the content behind it, but the appearance and clothing of the corpse are very similar to him at this moment.
"I didn't expect that there are such coincidences in the world..." Lu Sheng said to himself. Normal people would inevitably feel unlucky when hearing a corpse dressed the same as themselves, but Lu Sheng just felt that this person was a little bit... It's pitiful that he has been dead for such a long time, and no one at home has come to look for him... It seems that there are people in this world who are even more pitiful than himself.
==============================================
Song Jiang looked at the little Li Hua who was gradually quieting down in Xu Che's arms, and immediately looked around alertly. He caught a glimpse of a blurry figure disappearing in front of him in the distance, and wondered if it was that guy who scared the little Li Hua? At this moment, Ah Fu suddenly said with a look of disgust, "Who is so wicked? Feeding stray cats with mud and dead leaves?!"
After hearing this, Song Jiang walked over to check, and sure enough he saw a disposable lunch box filled with smelly mud and rotten leaves. Although the stray cats were not so hungry that they would even eat dirt, they just left it there. It was really uncomfortable to look at here, but before Song Jiang could pour out the bowl of mud, Xu Che took a step ahead of him and kicked the bowl of mud away...
"You kid, your feet are quite fast..." Song Jiang shook his head helplessly.
Xu Che said with a look of disgust, "I don't know which lunatic did it. Only the dead eat mud!"
