Here Lies The Wicked

Thirty people are prone to midlife crises.

Because at this time, most of them have bosses and small families.

He also bore mortgages, car loans, small expenses, etc.

And in the middle age, if you haven't tried to climb to a position of authority or get into an important department, then the next thing you have to wait for is probably to dismiss the crisis.

People will be inferior to young people in all respects after midlife.

Companies need fresh blood to survive in competitive markets.

So that's why most companies prefer to fire their old employees to pay them more.

I prefer to give newcomers higher wages.

Because the company is determined that you do not have the courage to speak up and do not dare to resign easily, overtime, no salary increase, face daily insults from bosses and customers, becomes the norm in the middle-aged crisis group.

This costly society is slowly domesticating men as weak rabbits without blood.

Lin Xing is 29 years old, and he will be 30 years old after the end of the year, but he has a feeling of crisis in middle age since he was only 29 years old.

He's just an ordinary little employee of a private business, paid 4,000 a month after taxes, then had to support his family, pay rent, eat, drink and wear expenses every day, etc.

With this total deduction, you can't save much money each month.

Forestry is now full of confusion about the future of life, don't know where to go?

Perhaps, going home to be a small security guard, earning more than 3,000 a month, and having an old home, you will save more money than you can make in the north.

When Lin Hang dragged his tired body out of the subway station after work, a wave of heat came along, although it was now October, and it was 7 pm, but in the subtropics of South Cantonese, pedestrians still wore shorts and short sleeves.

Without a few steps away from the subway station, the backs of the forest had been wet with sweat.

Forest Bank rented the house, two kilometers from the subway, but he couldn't help but take a bus, he left the subway every day and walked another half hour to get back to the rented apartment building.

This is some old apartment building.

Jiangtian Apartment has long lost its shine, turning dark and dark in the sun and rain.

Forestry banks live on the fifth floor, high is a bit high, and climbing stairs every day can consume a lot of energy, but it is cheaper than higher-rise rent.

This is the old apartment building.

At the time of construction, no elevator shafts were reserved.

Even if we could install elevators outdoors now, it would cost hundreds of thousands of them, and obviously no one would spend this unjust money on them.

By the time the forest climbed to the fifth floor, people had already had some asthma, and in intense asthma, the forest had a hidden smell.

But when he wanted to smell it again, he couldn't smell it.

He didn't really want to, either, go in the direction of his door.

Because it was already dark, the corridor was slightly cold and dim, but had lived here for four or five years in the woods and had not felt any discomfort.

However, when he walked to the door, he looked at the door slightly taboo, then hurriedly took out the key and opened the door and slammed it shut.

A bowl of rice was placed in front of the door of the forester's door, the rice was lined with incense, and several candles were lit on the floor.

This is a feast for the dead.

Looks like the other door just died recently.

As soon as Lin Xing entered the door, he saw his wife from his hometown. He walked in worried and handed over a pair of plastic slippers: “Honey, is your company working late again today? ”

“Honey, you come back so late every day, I'm a little scared. ”

“Wife, I'm sorry, I don't have the skills, not only to let you buy food after work, cook food, but also to leave you alone at home until I get back. I knew you were weak, afraid of the dark and thunder, but I left you alone at home.” Lin Xing blamed himself.

Wife shook her head, her face did not diminish, her face said worried: “Honey, I'm not worried about myself. I'm worried about my husband. You work so late every day. ”

“You said to the old man's wife has been dead for more than seven days, the first seven have passed, and he still lays dead meals on the doorstep every day, lights candles, says to wait for his wife to come back, and listens to people. ”

“I always felt that our old man at the door was a little out of his mind. I was worried that you'd come back so late every day, in case you ran into the old man who was insane...”

Lin Xing laughed and said: “Honey, don't think too much, as long as we don't proactively mess with him. ”

But the wife was still worried: “But the husband still felt scared. Otherwise, let's rent the house somewhere else. People die at the front door every day. I always feel cold in the hallway when I come home from work. ”

Lin Xing looked at his wife with some distress and hurried to reassure her: “I'll look for a new place for us in the next few days. ”

Although the economy is very strained.

But Lin Xing also knew that his wife had been timid since she was a child, so she could only follow her wishes.

Afterwards, Lin changed his wife's slippers and prepared to wash his hands and eat.

However, while his wife was in the kitchen cooking hot dishes, he washed his hands out of the bathroom and walked past the door, curious as he lay on the cat's eye behind the door and looked at the occupants opposite him.

The door to the door remains closed.

Nothing abnormal.

“Am I hearing this wrong? I think I just heard a noise in the hall. ”

At this time, his wife called him to eat at the restaurant. The food was already hot. The forest hall did not think about it anymore. He answered and ate in the past.

After eating, Linhang washes the dishes and chopsticks for his wife, cleans up the garbage from the kitchen, and sits warmly in the sofa chair in the living room watching the urban soap opera.

Wall clock, time jumps every second.

Just as Lin Hang fell asleep and slowly struggled to come up, the phone rings suddenly and wakes up Lin Hang.

Who else is calling so late? Lin Xing rubbed his sleepy eyes and flipped his phone out of his pants pocket. The call showed a series of strange numbers.

Hello.

“Hello, who are you? ”

Lin Hang picked up the phone.

As a result, the phone was quiet and no one spoke.

“Hello? Who are you? Why aren't you talking? ”

Tick-tock.

Tick-tock.

No one should be loud in the handset, only the sound of droplets.

Lin Xing shouted a few times at the phone and never answered him, only the sound of the water ball that kept him out of his mind.

Lin Bank thought it was a prank call and hung up directly.

“Honey, who's calling?” Wife cares to ask Ling.

Lynch: “It's okay, it's just a prank call. ”

In less than 10 minutes, the phone rings again, or the previous phone numbers.

But this time there was still no voice, only a strange droplet.
