001 Heaven and Hell
"This is a mysterious city. Maybe you think it is very young, only two or three hundred years old. It was built after the colonists came ashore. Then you are wrong. It is very old, maybe as old as this planet, and its secrets are hidden underground. We'd better not dig it."
——Excerpt from the Book of Taboos
*******
In the bar.
Shen Xing drank too much and had a headache.
A strange woman came over and whispered to him: "I've been looking for you for a long time. I've been searching for the entire universe before I found this place. Seeing you like this, I feel... sorry, I'm really sorry, I can't..."
She said, lowering her head and began to sob silently.
Shen Xing was a little dizzy and felt incredible. A strange woman suddenly ran to me and cried, saying some inexplicable words, what does it mean to... search the entire universe, are you an alien?
Shen Xing said helplessly: "Sorry, we don't seem to know each other. Did you... recognize the wrong person?"
The woman raised her head, and the tears in her eyes and her beautiful face were so pity and love.
Shen Xing suddenly understood that she might have been in love and wanted to talk to someone?
The woman seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly handed over a folded note, and specifically explained, "Some things must be known when you have to restore to that level. You must take care of yourself, goodbye." After that, she stood up and walked towards the bathroom.
Look at the hurried figure...
Shen Xing was really confused.
I looked at the small note in my hand again, and guessed in my heart that the note might be her phone number or WeChat account.
Open the small note, there are two words on it
——Save me.
Shen Xing was stunned for a moment and subconsciously turned around. What he thought to himself was, is it because someone wanted to harm you, want to kidnap you, have you any shameless fiancé or something like you want to murder you, so you came here to ask me for help?
If such a woman is really in trouble, she should call the police.
He observed it all, but didn't find anyone who was suspicious, and then looked at the two words on the note carefully.
——Save me.
The handwriting is very delicate, not like it is written in a fountain pen or ballpoint pen, but more like small calligraphy and calligraphy in fine brushes.
How could this happen in modern society?
But when I thought about it, I felt that something was wrong. If she really had the difficulties of not being able to call the police, or she was unable to think about it and wanted to commit suicide...
Thinking of this, Shen Xing put away the note and walked to the bathroom immediately.
After passing by the corner, there are two bathrooms here.
It’s strange, why do the doors say “Heaven” and “Hell” respectively?
Shen Xing has been to this bar many times and has never seen such a spoof.
There seemed to be people in both bathrooms. He pushed them gently with his hands and the doors were locked. I don’t care about it. Which one should I knock on first?
Let’s knock on “Heaven” first.
Shen Xing thought for a while, I should first calm her emotions and try to say in the gentlest voice: "Hi, beauty, do you need help? Don't be overwhelmed."
There was no response inside, and he repeatedly said it softly several times, but still did not respond.
I felt that the person inside was very panicked. He should be pumping toilet paper hard and lifting his pants, and was flushing the toilet in a hurry.
"Neuropathy!"
The woman's voice came from the crack of the half-open door. She sounded very unhappy and even a little angry. Although her voice was very pleasant, it seemed not the woman's voice just now.
Shen Xing was a little panicked and knew that he had knocked on the wrong door.
After the door is completely opened.
A middle-aged fat woman moved out carefully, and her face was very angry, but seeing Shen Xing was so handsome, she instantly turned into a smile again.
"Ah, it's a handsome guy... Sorry, are you in a hurry to use the bathroom?"
Shen Xing hurriedly retreated and stayed away from her.
The fat woman was also in a hurry to give up her seat and smiled charmingly: "Little handsome guy, I'm sorry, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Otherwise, would you please have some wine later?"
It was so embarrassing that Shen Xing subconsciously replied, "Ah?"
After saying that, I really want to suck my mouth, but why is it so mean that I won’t die without saying a word?
After hearing this, the fat woman was excited and shouted happily, "Go in quickly, hurry up, go in quickly, hurry up..."
That expression and the urged gesture seemed to be not a stinky toilet inside, but Simmons, a gentle place, and a pink paradise.
Shen Xing glanced inside and smelled badly.
The fat woman was still clamoring around and refused to leave. She had to try to drive her away.
Shen Xing pinched his nose, "It smells so smelly, it smells so smelly..."
"Hmph! It's so annoying."
The fat woman was very angry and left without even washing her hands.
After she walked away.
Shen Xing looked at the bathroom door on the right and said that it was "hell".
Looking at the two scarlet words on the door, I suddenly felt inexplicable panic. If this was the woman's prank, would I be embarrassed? Forget it, just pretend that she was drunk and doing ridiculous things.
Shen Xing decisively walked towards "hell".
Knocking hard on the door, trying to open the door of hell.
There was no response inside, and I seriously doubt whether there was anyone inside, otherwise why there was no movement for a long time?
Shen Xing simply pushed the door hard, and he pushed it open.
There is no one inside, and the "hell" is empty.
He retracted his head and looked around and above him.
What's going on?
The woman suddenly disappeared. Maybe she was drunk too much. She just read it wrong, but the woman didn't walk to the bathroom.
At this moment, I was very dizzy. It should be because of the further attack of alcohol. I was really drunk and a little anxious to urinate. I would like to swear first.
Shen Xing closed the door and began to swear.
I have never felt so happy, I felt completely let go, I felt like... I suspected that the Milky Way fell into the sky, and the big and small beads fell into the jade plate.
Hey, strange... Why did you swear for so long, swear endlessly, and your ears kept squirming, and you felt like you were riding the wind and waves across the vast starry universe...
Finally, Shen Xing shook it, and couldn't remember how long it had been for a while. I'm afraid it would take more than ten minutes, and his legs were numb.
After coming out of it.
Shen Xing washed his face and had to wake himself up.
It feels so good to pour cold water on your face, and you no longer feel dizzy.
He held his hands on the washbasin and looked at himself in the mirror. He found it strange that he suddenly grew up two or three years old and turned into twenty-four or five years old. And why did his beard grow a little bit more when he just shaved in the morning?
Shen Xing touched his chin and his beard was very thorny. Thinking of how he had been swearing for so long just now, he was convinced that he must be evil!
I was really panicked now. He hurriedly turned over his trouser pockets, and the note was still there.
——Save me.
The handwriting on it is very beautiful, and I am sure it is a small regular script with fine brushes.
At this moment, I was completely awake and I was not lying!
Calm down, be sure to be calm!
I thought so in my heart, but I still turned around and looked around in a panic.
No ghosts were found.
Humph, so what if she is a female ghost... Am I still afraid that she will not succeed?
Shen Xing deliberately reached out to the mirror to collect water and wiped his hair. While wiping his hair, he whistled and smiled relaxedly, looking at himself in the mirror casually, wanting to see if there is a female ghost behind him smiling at him.
There was no female ghost, so I felt a little disappointed about this, and in an instant, I felt a little proud. Look, even if there were really female ghosts, they were still afraid of me.
He came out of the bathroom, like walking under the sea, deliberately twisting step by step, slowly walking out of the corner, slowly walking towards the counter, preparing to check out and leave.
Suddenly, I was stunned again!
Where is this?
I never seemed to be here at this bar.
Just as Shen Xing was stunned, a crisp girl's voice came from beside him.
"cousin!"
He quickly turned around.
What caught my eye was a very beautiful mixed-race girl from China and abroad, at the age of seventeen or eighteen... But, she actually wore a girl's school uniform from the Republic of China era, which was the kind of girl's school uniform that often appeared in ghost movies!
Shen Xing was startled and hurriedly flashed back.
The girl was a little angry and said loudly, "Hey! Although we have never had a good relationship, there is no need for you to pretend to be crazy again. Besides, I have been helping you for more than a week. Don't you know how to repay the debts of favors?"
"Love debt? What kind of love debt?"
Shen Xing thought she was a female ghost, but she was still in shock at this moment and said decisively: "I don't owe anyone a favor, don't bother me."
"you!"
The girl was very angry and turned her head to ignore him.
Shen Xing quickly looked around and was sure that he had never been here.
The decorations here are all exotic, and many objects look like old antiques. Especially the Big Ben on the wall, which is obviously the style of the Republic of China in the 1920s and 1930s, and the antique-level phonograph on the counter...
