Chapter 87 The Speed of Life and Death (10)
“Fuck!” Qian Xiaoyi covered his head and stood up from the ground. Next to him were three cigarette butts that had long been extinguished. The soft light strips in the tunnel were still on. He pushed Heita Inuyama, who was fainting, and shouted: "Wake up."
Heita Inuyama woke up in a daze. He felt a splitting headache. Although there was no pain anywhere in his body, he always felt... Feeling uncomfortable and recalling what happened before, Inuyama Heita couldn't help complaining: "Didn't you say that there won't be car crashes and fatal accidents, so there's no need to be afraid?"
Qian Xiaoyi took a cigarette from the cigarette box He picked a cigarette and lit it, and the pleasant aroma rose. Smelling the smell, he felt that his head felt a little better, so he replied: "It is true that there will not be a car crash and fatal accident. We are not dead, it's just The car is just gone. Don't worry, I'm here, so you don't have to worry about us being knocked into a vegetative state."
"That's good...wait, the Revenant Taxi is gone?" Inuyama Heita asked in surprise." Was it wiped out like this? ”
"Probably not. Check to see if the business card is still there and if it's cracked." Qian Xiaoyi said.
Heita Inuyama quickly took out the business card. Except that it became a little dirty and even the original blurry handwriting became more blurry, it was not cracked.
Qian Xiaoyi said: "It seems that it has not been eliminated. After all, it is a monster formed due to the spread of urban legends. As long as urban legends still exist, it will be re-formed, but its strength is still too weak. It's not at all comparable to Rift Girl and Turbine Granny, so I don't know how long it will take to condense and form again. It may be a few months, it may be a few years or even ten years... In short, I can't use it recently. It's really unlucky. Get ready. Go back.”
At this time, the sound of a motorcycle came, and Inuyama Heita instantly became nervous, but this time it was Uncle Gumi who came. He rode a bicycle in front of them and asked: "Hey, what happened here? What? I don’t know if it’s my imagination. I just heard something in the tunnel, like there was an accident.” Said: "Let's go out."
"Is the matter done?" Gumi asked: "Will Kuroda wake up?"
"We will know tomorrow." Qian Xiaoyi said calmly.
The next day, in the hospital.
"Thank you, thank you very much!" Sachiko Kuroda and Mrs. Kuroda kept bowing to Qian Xiaoyi to express their gratitude.
Kuroda Sachiko wiped away tears and said: "Dad woke up early this morning. Although he can't remember anything he said, I think it must be your credit. After all, it's such a coincidence. You guys yesterday Went to Jiuma Tunnel, and dad woke up today.”
"Ah, you are... Mr. Qian, right?" Kuroda sat on the hospital bed and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry this time. I seemed to have had a long dream, and you seemed to appear in the dream. Picture, thank you very much. If it weren’t for you, I would have suffered a lot if I hadn’t woken up. I’m such a useless man. It’s really undeserved to make the women in my family worry so much.” br>
Qian Xiaoyi and Inuyama Heita were both observing Kuroda's appearance. He looked very normal, even a little too normal. At this time, he was looking at his family apologetically.
"Dad, don't talk about that." Kuroda Sachiko and his wife hugged Kuroda Nobunaga: "As long as you are okay, we are a family, these are nothing."
< br>Qian Xiaoyi stared at Kuroda Nobunaga carefully. Looking at the harmonious family scene in front of him, he did not feel warm at all. Qian Xiaoyi narrowed his eyes and asked: "So, Mr. Kuroda, how do you feel now?" Do you feel any discomfort or...confusion? "
Kuroda Nobunaga said sternly: "No, not at all. Rather, I am much clearer now. Looking back now, I feel that because of my small size Due to my temper, I did a lot of things that I didn’t do to my family, including participating in the Lucky Mutual Aid Club before and going racing on my own this time. Now that I think about it, I have really neglected my duty as a father and a husband. "< br>
"Nobunaga, stop talking, it doesn't matter anymore..." Mrs. Kuroda said, holding Kuroda Nobunaga's hand. "Then do you have any plans for your future?" Qian Xiaoyi asked.
Kuroda thought for a while and said: "Let's ask my previous boss first. If that doesn't work, find a job. I want to own my own small car. The truck is back on the road and will continue to transport goods. Let’s make some money. Besides, I can’t support my family without a job. In short, I won’t lose my temper as easily as before. I will work harder to make my family live a better life. "Where is Yegui Niku?" Qian Xiaoyi asked: "It would be nice to hang out with old friends there occasionally. It would help relieve stress." >
"Yogei Niku? Ah, that~" Kuroda Nobunaga showed a hint of ridicule on his face, and said: "It's just a kid playing house, drag racing or something, it's still too dangerous, I'm not the one now I am alone. For the sake of my family, I can no longer do those things. This is what a real man should do.”
When he said the name of Yegui Niku, his expression didn't waver at all, as if it had nothing to do with him, only numbness.
Outside the ward, Kuroda Sachiko said to Qian Xiaoyi: "Dad seems to have changed a lot this time. I have never seen him like that before. It's like he has changed. Ah, I'm sorry. I almost forgot the commission fee this time, here is..."
Sachiko Kuroda was about to take out an envelope from her bag and hand it to Qian Xiaoyi, but Qian Xiaoyi pushed the envelope back. , politely refused: "Let's talk about the money in a few days. Mr. Kuroda's situation needs to be observed for a few more days, right? It won't be too late to give it to me when the time comes."
"But dad looks like He has become even better than before..."
"Indeed, he has become very reliable at first glance. He has become a mature adult. It is really amazing." Qian Xiaoyi said perfunctorily. He took out a talisman that had fallen into a triangle and handed it to Kuroda Sachiko, saying: "This is a talisman that can stabilize Mr. Kuroda's spirit and prevent him from doing something like that again. Please pass it to him and let him Be sure to carry it with you.”
"What about the commission fee?"
"Just leave it with you first, I won't increase the price." Qian Xiaoyi said: "Wait a few days after Mr. Kuroda confirms that there is no problem, and then give it to you I'm not too late."
"Mr. Qian, you are such a good person..."
On the way back to the office, Inuyama Heita asked in confusion: "Brother Oto, what did you just do? Why not accept the commission fee?”
“Because the commission is not over yet,” Qian Xiaoyi replied, “We still have work to do.”
"But didn't Mr. Kuroda wake up? It seems that nothing is wrong at all, and his family seems to be very satisfied with how he looks now."
"No, that's wrong, he left an important Where is the thing lost?"
"What?"
"The boy in my heart"
