    Qiu Zhi always feels at a loss when she gets off work.  Before leaving, she took out the text message that Rou Shi wrote to her in the past to read.  She picked up the phone and continued to dial the number that was never answered on the letter. She dialed, but no one answered, and then a busy tone, conveying the indifference and emptiness of the coming night.

    The phone rang suddenly, and Qiu Zhi trembled: "Hello?"

    is the director of the advertising department.  Disappointed, she asked calmly, "Is there something wrong?"

    The director of the advertising department asked her to tell Mina that starting tomorrow, she would not have to go to work at the newspaper office.

    "Mina¡ª¡ª"

    It was Qiu Zhi's voice.  Mina woke up from the dream, opened her eyes, and saw the lights in the room, but couldn't remember what time it was.  The cat is covering her head, looking at her.

    She waved her arm and hit the cat: "Do you want to disfigure me?" The cat looked at her again and jumped down.  She hurriedly checked the pillow for its paw prints.  The cat looked back calmly on the ground again, and was glared at by her fiercely.

    Mina thought: "Is this dog a man or a woman?"

    Yu Jin said in the living room: "You slept well this time!"

    Mina said nothing.

    Qiu Zhi said in the living room: "Secretary Tu is here to find you!"

    Mina sat up quickly, her white legs popped out from under the quilt, she put on her high heels, and ran into the living room with a patter: "Where's the person?"

    "gone."

    "Just kidding! How did you go?"

    "He said he was still busy."

    "How long has he been sitting?"

    "An hour."

    "Is there any mistake? You didn't call me after he came for an hour? What's the intention?"

    "He won't let you bark."

    Mina opened her round eyes wide, and looked at Yujin and Qiuzhi suspiciously: "What did he tell you?"

    "Just talk about a little literature."

    Mina walked back and forth in the living room in annoyance: "Qiuzhi, is he looking for you or me?"

    "I'm looking for you."

    "Then why did he leave before I got up?"

    "He just said that he was fine, but Director Tian asked him to tell you that it's okay to go to the chemical plant and motorcycle factory on Friday. If the situation changes, they won't accept you there, so you don't want to go."

    Mina's expression was very different: "What?" After a long time, she spit out a sentence through her teeth: "This old fat pig!" Then she turned and went back to the room, and slammed the door hard.

    Yu Jin said: "Can't you be gentle?"

    Qiu Zhi gently pushed open Mina's door, and saw her applying perfume into the crook of her elbow as if nothing had happened.  Qiu Zhi took a deep breath: "Mina, there is something I didn't intend to tell you, for fear that you would not be able to bear it."

    Mina said indifferently: "Say!"

    "Your director said that you don't have to go back to work tomorrow."

    Mina snorted through her nose: "I don't want to see those bird people anymore!"

    Qiu Zhi frowned: "Mina, I feel sorry for you."

    "No, I'm not upset."

    "I know you want to be strong. I haven't spent this month's salary. If you need it, let me know."

    Mina didn't speak, she fell back on the bed and pulled the quilt to cover her face.

    Qiu Zhi returned to the living room and saw Yu Jin's big eyes looking at her.  Yu Jin said: "Qiu Zhi, the woman selling popsicles said that she saw the fifth child, a small Hunan woman hanging in her arms, with very fair skin"

    "Is the fifth child married? Nothing."

    Yu Jin shed two lines of tears: "Qiu Zhi, do those colleagues who interview you all day long know about this? They don't know about the things in Yucheng, do they? Help me find out. I really don't believe it"

    Qiuzhi thought for a while, and said, "That's not true, Sister Jin, the fifth child has traveled a long distance to another province."

    Yu Jin didn't believe it anymore, and said sarcastically, "Which province are you going to? Qinghai? Lhasa?"

    "certainly!"

    Yu Jin's eyes dimmed, and his face turned green: "Even if you go to Lhasa, you don't have to go for a month!"

    "The fifth child is on a business trip, or he may have gone abroad. I know that their company has a foreign aid project in Pakistan."

    Yujin sighed deeply.

    Qiu Zhi continued to comfort Yu Jin: "That's right, he's gone abroad, and it's not convenient to send letters. Maybe, one day, he will beep the horn and appear in front of you from the sky!"

    It is also a kind of deception to describe dreams too beautifully.  But Qiu Zhi couldn't help it.lira ads.  "

    Qiu Zhi said that Mina is no longer at the newspaper.  She wanted to take them to the petition room of the newspaper office and leave their contact information, but the man turned around and left.  Qiu Zhi grabbed him: "Don't worry, if you are really her husband, I can help you find her."

    As soon as the man let go, the little girl slid to the ground, and she stretched out a small palm in front of the man's eyes: "Hurry up, it's agreed, five cents!" The man put down the prepared money in her palm, and she turned her head and said  ran away.

    Qiu Zhi said: "Who are you? What is your relationship with Mina?"

    The man turned around and ran, turning his head and said fiercely: "Tell her, the Bangbang Gang will not let her go!"

    twenty four

    In the Wu family compound, the living room was dimly lit and quiet.

    When it rains, Yujin can't go anywhere, so he stays indoors.  There was no news about the fifth child, Mina did not show up, and Qiu Zhi disappeared in a flash.  No one disturbed her. These days, she was calmer, as if she had been negotiating with fate for a long time, and she was about to get the result she wanted.  She took apart a tight black sweater all day long, from morning to night, and couldn't finish it.  A mysterious smile appeared on her pale face, as if there were many spells about to be unraveled.

    The cat meowed from time to time, stretched its neck towards Tujin, and she handed her face to let it lick and lick.  Its tongue was like a brush covered with small thorns, which made her feel itchy.  She spoke cat language in her mouth, and she understood each other with it.

    The quiet, dim, and stale time made the tall woman sitting on the sofa look even more beautiful, like an oil painting, revived from history.

    She finally finished taking off the sweater and a black bra that she had never used.  The bra is linear and trimmed with delicate black lace.  It made her slender fingers even whiter, and her skin was almost transparent.

    She: "Earlier, tell me a story, I listened to it, why is it not her own story, but it seems to be played on TV?"

    She gradually raised her voice.  The cat sang like a companion, meowing between each of her words, as if in answer, or in exclamation.

    "I said, old five, this woman, you can't see through, you can't see through! She compliments and is courteous when she sees a man, you are dizzy!"

    "Meow!"

    "She is a falsehood connected with a falsehood, a falsehood and another falsehood. I am tired of talking to her, so what is talking, it is hide-and-seek!"

    "Meow!"

    In fact, Mina has been shutting herself in her room for many days.

    Qiu Zhi came back and knocked on the door: "Mina¡ª¡ª"

    Mina ignored it.

    After another ten minutes, Mina opened the door.

    Qiuzhi saw that Mina's red suitcase had been opened and placed on the bed, which was covered with all kinds of her clothes.  She must have been crying for a long time, even under the dim electric light, her eyes were red and swollen.

    "Mina, what happened?"

    Mina suddenly raised her head and pointed at Qiuzhi: "What are you pretending to be!"

    Qiu Zhi: "Someone pretends to be your child"

    Mina misheard: "Looking for a house? You said the director is looking for a house for me? His wife attacked me at the intersection at noon and tore my bag!"

    Qiu Zhi was confused: "Why is she like this? You and the director"

    "What do you think he is? He took all the advertisements I put together with him, and he got enough of me, so he drove me away!"

    Mina stuffed the clothes into the suitcase and began to cry: "Every day I go out, I have to toss for a long time about what clothes to wear. I run around every day, and I am so nervous and exhausted all the time, but I am still caught by these stinky clothes.  The man is playing tricks! Why am I? I am the fifth child. But the fifth child has also become a wolf, a white-eyed wolf!"

    "Don't be too sad, find another job and live well."

    These words made Mina quiet for a moment.  She took Qiu Zhi's hand and cried again: "I'm so desperate, so desperate. Without his feelings, what am I still doing here? I'm in a different place."

    "Mina, there is one thing you must know: there was a man today who said he was the Bangbang Gang"

    Mina was stunned for a moment, then sat down on the bed: "Here they are, they finally came after me! I knew they would never let me go"

    "Who are they? Do you want me to accompany you to the police station and ask the police to arrest them?"

    "If you have always been a good woman, you are an ordinary woman. If you have been a bad woman, when you want to be a good woman, they will not allow you." Mina gritted her teeth and buckled the suitcase, "  I gotta go."

    "You are a single woman, where are you going?"

    "Go to Guangdong!"

    Qiu Zhi stuffed an envelope to her: "You take the salary I just received."

    Mina held the envelope, lowered her head and thought for a while: "Give it to her, give it to Sister Jin, I will borrow it. The fifth child will never come to see her again. You and her, it's okay" Her eyes were red again.  She hugged Qiuzhi vigorously, and rushed out the door with the box.

    Qiu Zhi chased it out: "Mina, be careful"

    "Don't worry about me. It's just that Mina is gone. From now on, I will be another"

    Mina only paused for a moment, then resolutely walked out of the compound, and quickly got into a red taxi.

    "Mina, be careful"

    Qiuzhi's voice was drowned out by the damp smoke from the tail of the taxi.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)Where?  "
