"Hello."

He Chuan answered the phone.

"I called you before, why didn't I answer? What are you doing?" A male voice rang on the phone.

"Just returning home."

"Aren't you all retired? Why are you still going back so late?"

"There is a case where Fatty asked me to go over and help me see."

"Is it dangerous?"

"fine."

"You are retired, so just have a good rest and don't worry about those things."

"Um."

“When will you come back?”

"Let's take a break first and talk about it later."

"After finishing the process, I will come back early. I raised a few chickens for you in the backyard, and I happened to kill them to replenish them."

"good."

"By the way, have you contacted the girl I introduced to you last time?"

He Chuan remembered the WeChat that he hadn't opened for a long time, paused and said, "Contact."

He breathed a sigh of relief on the other end of the phone and said relaxedly: "Just contact me, I know the girl at home and works in the local tax bureau. She has a good personality, graduated from a prestigious university, and she also works in Chengdu like you. You are close to each other, so you have to make an appointment to play and enhance your relationship."

"Okay." He Chuan responded.

I hang up after a few more words on the other end of the phone.

Seeing that the screen of the phone became dark, He Chuan was quiet for a few minutes before throwing it aside.

I don't know when it will start.

The tone of his father chatting with him became more and more cautious.

My father, who used to be strong, is now talking to him, and he is increasingly in a negotiating tone.

Including getting married and falling in love, it just means that He Chuan just decides it himself.

He never forced him.

Especially, my father is about to retire now.

After this year, he only needs to go to the last time to rest at home.

Perhaps because of the pressure of going to work, my father's mentality has also become relaxed.

Almost every day, I would call him, and the content I talked about was nothing more than eating or not. When the weather was cold, please pay attention to adding clothes.

After sitting on the sofa for a while, He Chuan got up and headed to the kitchen.

The kitchen is behind the toilet, separated by only a curtain from the living room, which is a typical old house layout.

The whole house is very small, only thirty-six square meters, divided into one bedroom and one living room.

Although He Chuan’s income and the welfare of the bureau can exchange for a larger new house.

But He Chuan did not.

After all, this is the legacy left to him by his mother.

It took too long to remember, and the memory was already a little blurred.

In my impression, my mother is a beautiful, strong, hardworking and positive woman.

Even if you meet an elder when you were a child, the other party will say something complicated when he sees him.

picture.

It's really similar.

As a woman born in a small county town in Sichuan Province, her mother had traveled to Southeast Asia in 80s, and in 90s she dared to quit her job as a tax bureau and went to Shenzhen to do business.

In my memory, my mother could also have very good-looking pen calligraphy, and her sketches were comparable to those of an art student. Even though she was over thirty years old, she could still play games, play PS, sign up for computer training classes with He Chuan when she was in elementary school, learn how to work on a computer, and learn how to type in Wubi.

Such a woman.

On the day of graduation from Hechuan Primary School.

I ended my life with a rope.

My father always felt that his mother's death had an unshirkable relationship with him.

Because she called her father the night before she died, but her father hung up after chatting for a few words.

He always felt that if he had been more careful at that time, if he hadn't hung up the phone so early.

Maybe none of this will happen.

Although they had been divorced for almost ten years at that time.

Open the cabinet and it was empty and nothing.

He Chuan stared at the cabinet, was stunned for a while, and then slowly closed it.

I don’t know when it started, but He Chuan became more and more withdrawn.

I was so active and healthy when I was a child, but when I grew up, I became less and less interested in getting along with others.

For a long time, he hated the strange eyes of people around him, and hated words such as "poor" and "no mother".

He became sensitive and suspicious.

Even if the other party just paused his tone when he spoke, he could simulate a Qing Palace drama in his mind.

Gradually, He Chuan could really sense other people's emotions.

He could tell whether the other party had a word, an action, or even an expression. Is it good intention or malicious?

So, when the father took a boy home, he said to He Chuan.

This is the child of the aunt and her sister, and I will be staying with them for a while.

He Chuan knew from his father's nervous tone.

That boy is his younger brother.

Half-brother.

They were careful to hide the truth, for fear of touching He Chuan's sensitive nerve.

But He Chuan still knew.

At that time, he was in high school and gradually understood what kind of ability he had.

He has been exposed to too many people's emotions and has learned too many people's secrets.

The reason why secrets are called secrets is because they cannot be exposed to the sun.

No one likes to expose their secrets completely to another person, even if this person is a relative.

Although He Chuan hates them as guilty, he hates them to be careful to please him.

But he chose to remain silent.

This silence.

I was silent for more than ten years.

He Chuan stood there and was stunned for a while before turning around and opening the refrigerator.

Since retirement, he has lived a completely isolated life.

Every day he would read books at home, or lie on the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling.

In a flash, the whole day passed.

For this reason, he bought a lot of food and kept it at home.

Five packs per bag of instant noodles, a total of four bags and twenty packs, as well as dumplings and quick-frozen dumplings, stuffing the refrigerator full of them.

The most important thing is Coke.

He Chuan often has brain pain. When the iced Pepsi pours into his throat, his brain will be temporarily empty.

So He Chuan puts boxes of Pepsi at home, and then continues to freeze after drinking it.

This ability is very powerful, but it also makes He Chuan bother.

Too many negative emotions made He Chuan often think of himself and killing.

But that was all in junior high school.

People who have died once usually have difficulty raising the courage to die a second time.

What's more, He Chuan is now... experiencing death repeatedly almost every day.
