Poor and destitute, sleeping on the streets.
"A man walked more than 1,500 kilometers because he had no money to take a bus."
Shen Dian didn't want to suddenly appear in the news with such a title.
He really needs money.
When he took on this mission, he forgot to bring any documents or bank cards that might reveal his identity. His valuables were taken away by Old Wangba's men. Now, he is a penniless pauper.
No one knew where the canary had flown to and it hadn't been found for half an hour.
Has this bird that has been following him inexplicably finally decided to leave?
Just as he was thinking this, he saw a pale yellow canary flying towards him, holding a palm-sized piece of cardboard in its claws.
Shendian is like a tree that allows birds to land.
The canary landed on Shen Dian's shoulder, with the cardboard under its claws and placed on Shen Dian's shoulder.
Shen Dian: ???
Why does this bird always seem to dislike him so much?
When you come into contact with him, you have to put something in the middle!
Canary turned to look at Shen Dian, and her dark round eyes met his.
Lower your head and use your beak to tap and scratch the cardboard.
Only two sounds are produced regularly.
The "do" sound made by the bird's beak poking the cardboard, and the "hiss" sound made by the tip of the bird's beak scratching the cardboard.
As Shen Dian listened, his expression changed from puzzled at first to strange.
"Duoshi, duo ...
This... is actually Morse code...
Left turn, pyramid.
Turn left, pyramid scheme.
!!!
Didn’t they say that spirits are not allowed after the founding of the country?
Liar!
Shen Dian's face was shattered with shock. He didn't move his body, but tilted his neck and head to the other side. He looked at the canary in horror, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
Canary stood on his shoulder, looking up at him, her round black eyes bright and shiny.
Shen Dian only felt that there was a strange light flashing in those eyes, as if the pale yellow, small canary in front of him would transform into a Godzilla monster in the next moment and swallow his head in one bite.
His eyes were dull and filled with fear, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and he stood there for a long while without making any movement.
When the canary saw Shen Dian's appearance, it spread one of its wings and fanned it in his face.
Fan him back to his senses.
"Ah!!!" Shen Dian suddenly let out a huge roar like a groundhog.
The pedestrians around were all startled and looked sideways.
The canary was startled by the sound and staggered, and flapped its wings towards Shen Dian's face again, this time using some force, which was different from the first time when it fanned the wind.
The roar stopped abruptly, and Shen Dian closed his eyes and mouth tightly, as if something extremely frightening had happened in front of him.
Canary had no choice but to lower his head and continue to hit and scratch the cardboard.
"Duo duo ...
Idiot.
idiot.
Shen Dian quietly opened one eye and glanced at the canary on his shoulder.
But the canary didn't want to pay attention to him. It flapped its wings slightly and flew to the left.
“Eh…”
“Hey!!”
"Hey, bird brother! Don't leave!"
Shen Dian shouted repeatedly, and he didn't seem to have any fear at all.
Passersby looked at Shen Dian as if he was a lunatic, shouting "Brother Bird, wait for me" while chasing the golden bird.
"Brother Bird, are you a monster?"
"Brother Bird, when did you become a spirit?"
"Brother Bird, why have you been following me?"
"Oh, right! If that's the case...it was you who saved me in Wang Wensheng's basement earlier!"
"Brother Bird, I was blind and didn't recognize you. Thank you for saving my life!"
"I will definitely repay you!"
"By the way, Brother Bird, what's your name?"
…
The noisy voice of Shen Dian kept ringing in his ears. The canary, which had been deliberately flying low and slowing down so that he could catch up, suddenly increased its speed by nearly twice.
Shen Dian was chasing after him madly, and for a moment, he really had no time to speak.
﹉
A boy in his early twenties was walking on the side of the street. He looked a little nervous and flustered, looking back from time to time. Every time he looked back, his expression became more solemn.
Following closely behind him was a girl with shoulder-length hair and an innocent face.
The boy turned around from time to time to look not at her, but at two men about ten steps behind him.
The two men, one with his hands in his pockets and the other with a cigarette in his mouth, walked leisurely behind him.
The two men followed wherever the big boy in front went.
The girl following behind the boy reached out from time to time, trying to hold the arm of the older boy in front of her.
The boy either dodged or pulled his hand away impatiently, vaguely feeling disgusted by her touch.
"Don't touch me!"
The boy suddenly turned around and yelled.
The girl shrank her shoulders in fear, looked at the boy with innocent eyes, and said softly, "An Neng, please don't be like this..."
"Don't be like this? Don't be like what? How much did I owe you in my last life?" The boy raised his eyebrows, looked unfriendly, and shouted angrily.
"You... don't be angry, I just want you to study and listen to the class..."
"Tsk! Listening to a class? That kind of class, that's..." An Neng was about to say something, looked at the two men approaching from behind, and finally swallowed the rest of his words.
"In short, Xu Xiaoya, no matter what relationship we have, whether we were childhood sweethearts or classmates, we are now done with each other! From now on, we will never have any contact with each other again!"
After saying that, An Neng glanced at the two men who came closer to him and walked forward again.
Xu Xiaoya pursed her lips and cried, but still followed An Neng closely, as if she was afraid that he would run away.
"Hey! Bro! Is that you?"
"An Neng?"
A strange man wearing a black T-shirt and trousers, with some bruises on his face and a light yellow bird standing on his shoulder suddenly appeared and shouted at An Neng.
An Neng paused, looked at him in confusion and bewilderment, and carefully searched his mind for the impression of this face.
"It's me, don't you remember me? I'm God... I'm Sheng Gou..."
Shen Dian said as he walked closer and put his arm around the older boy's shoulders like a good brother.
Thinking that he was still in ZS City and had not completely escaped from the old bastard's territory, Shen Dian was about to say his name when he quickly stopped talking. The made-up name came out of his mouth and it was too late to change it.
"Ah... I didn't expect to meet you here!" Shen Dian continued to act firmly.
After blocking the sight of the two men and Xu Xiaoya behind him, Shen Dian quietly winked at An Neng.
"Uh... um..." The boy responded vaguely, not understanding what the weirdo who called himself Sheng Gou was going to do. He was now in trouble and instinctively wanted to grab any life-saving straw.
"How are you doing lately? What are you doing?" Shen Dian naturally put his arm around the boy's shoulder, as if they were good friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.
"... Fortunately, I came to ZS City to play." Who knew that I would encounter such a thing.
"An Neng, who is this? Why don't you introduce him to me?" Xu Xiaoya looked at Shen Dian and asked An Neng.
An Neng looked away with disgust on his face and ignored her.
Xu Xiaoya immediately bit her lips in grievance, her eyes filled with tears.
"An Neng and I used to be good friends. Hey, why haven't I seen you before? Who are you?" Shen Dian took over the conversation and turned the tables.
"An Neng and I were classmates in elementary school. He came to ZS City just to play with me!"
"Oh~" Shen Dian's eyes wandered between An Neng and Xu Xiaoya, as if he was really joking between familiar people.
After a conversation, Xu Xiaoya learned that Shen Dian was also visiting ZS City, and she happily invited him to watch a movie with her.
About ten steps behind him, the two men stood there looking around, not coming forward, pretending not to know him.
Along the way, Xu Xiaoya kept looking for Shen Dian to chat, and Shen Dian was very cooperative and made up answers for her, so the boy was left aside.
"When did you and An Neng meet?"
"Oh... By the way, An Neng, in which year did we know each other?" In order to avoid being exposed, Shen Dian pretended that he couldn't remember clearly and turned around to put the blame on An Neng.
"...We've known each other since junior high school." An Neng didn't understand what this stranger meant, but he still answered cooperatively.
"What grade are you in?" Shen Dian seemed like he really couldn't remember and wanted to confirm it.
"Second grade."
…
"Is your name Sheng Gou? Where are you from?"
"Yes, my name is Shenggou, I am from Dalian and I can speak Dalian dialect."
"Dalian is pretty good. What do you do?"
"I drive an excavator. I graduated from Lanxiang."
"Haha, I heard that driving an excavator is quite profitable."
"It's OK, but I often accidentally dig up the telecom network cable."
"What kind of bird is that on your shoulder? It's so pretty and not afraid of people at all."
"Canary, you're super smart!" Shen Dian gave Canary a thumbs up and looked at him with a slightly flattering look. Canary stood motionless on Shen Dian's shoulder like a fake bird, without looking away.
"So this is the canary. Aren't you afraid that it will fly away if you don't put it in a cage?"
"Don't dare!"
Unless Shen Dian finally changes from seeking death to not caring about his own life, who would dare to put this monster into a cage?
Don't seek death in such a blunt way.
After the movie ended, Xu Xiaoya became more familiar with Shen Dian. During the conversation, she learned that Shen Dian had not yet found a hotel, so she quickly invited him to stay at her home like An Neng.
"You can sleep in the same room with An Neng. It's always more convenient to live at home than in a hotel."
"I'd rather stay there, but it's not a good idea... I think I'd better stay in a hotel."
"Hey! Don't think too much, my brother is at home too, what's wrong with that?"
Shen Dian pretended to decline several times, but finally couldn't resist Xu Xiaoya's enthusiastic invitation.
"Actually, An Neng didn't come to ZS City just to play with me this time. He was also looking at a project, and playing with me was just a side job." Xu Xiaoya said, with her innocent face, her words were very credible.
"Tsk!" An Neng pulled the corner of his mouth and sneered.
"An Neng is angry with me now because of something... I'm sorry to embarrass you."
"No, no, what project did An Neng come to see?" Shen Dian asked with great interest.
"This, I'll tell you slowly when we get back."
