Chapter 31: Happy Birthday

The old lady cried and put those things into the fire one by one, watched the fire gradually extinguish faintly, wiped her faint eyes, and was stunned for a while before slowly moving into the house.

The old lady obviously had a problem with her legs, one leg could barely curl up and straight, and the other seemed to be completely unconscious, and could only be dragged behind her.

She just crossed her hands and dragged her way into the house, shouting hoarsely as she crawled: "Child, go home, Xiaowei, go home......

At this moment, I wish Gao Zhan could call me out, or pat me on the shoulder, so that I can get out of the illusion in front of me.

I couldn't bear to look any further, but my footsteps involuntarily followed the old lady slowly and with difficulty to the door of the house.

For a person with leg problems, it can be difficult to climb into bed.

However, the old lady still cried and climbed into bed with difficulty. She even patted the dirt on her body.

The old lady sat on the bed, stared at the door for a while, pulled the shabby but clean quilt over her body, and lay down slowly.

"Xiaowei, grandma is fine, grandma is waiting for you to come back......"

The mournful chatter grew faint and indistinct.

It wasn't until I couldn't hear any more movement that I suddenly came back to my senses.

After a few steps to the bed, I saw that the old lady's eyes were still open, but her pupils had dilated.

She's dead......

"! I'm back pinching! Suddenly, a cheerful voice came from outside.

I suddenly turned around, and I saw a girl in a black and white striped tracksuit with a bob head bouncing into the room and walking towards the bed......

"Handsome guy! Handsome guy ......"

An anxious call brought me back to reality.

The old lady who was dead in bed and staring at her, along with the candlelight at the door, was all gone, and only the bob in the black and white striped tracksuit was still beside me.

It's just that there is no longer a sunny smile on her face, but a face full of panic and tears.

She hugged one of my arms and shook it vigorously, dragging me to the bed while crying: "Come and see, what's wrong with my milk?" How did she become transparent......"

All I could see was an empty bed, but I could imagine what she was talking about.

I took a deep breath, which seemed to use up the remaining strength in my body.

"Your grandmother is dead." I said to Botou with difficulty, "You can come back, not only because of the red handkerchief, but also because on the day of the first seven, she lit a soul-attracting lamp to pick you up at home." Now she sees that you are safe...... She knows that you have been wronged, her wish is over, and she is going to reincarnate in the Yin Division. ”

Bobo looked at me in a daze for a while, and suddenly the corners of his mouth twitched twice, squeezed out a smile, turned his head to the empty bed board in my eyes and cried, "Milk, I'm fine...... I'm fine...... You can go in peace......"

I turned and walked to the door and silently lit a cigarette.

"Get me one too." Gao Zhan walked over, rubbed his eyes and said.

The two took a deep puff of cigarette opposite each other, and looked at the courtyard after the rain together.

Although Botou is a little funny, she is not stupid, on the contrary, she is much smarter than many people.

In a few words, she had learned the whole story.

And, accept it all.

With a smile, send your relatives on the road......

After a long time, Bobo wiped away his tears and said to me with a smile: "Handsome guy...... Big handsome guy, grandma is gone. ”

I nodded, "Condolences change." ”

Botou wiped his eyes again, "You are a ghost, I am a ghost, we are mortal enemies." I haven't hurt anyone, you can't give me a sticker, you can't accept me. ”

"Of course." I smiled.

"What was the last thing Grandma said to me before she left, guess what?" Botou grinned again, "Hehe, you can't guess. What she said was, 'Child, today is your birthday, and my grandmother wanted to boil two eggs for you, but no one in our village cooked eggs for me.'" ”

Tears flowed down his head again, but he had a happy smile on his face.

"It's your birthday?" Gao Zhan couldn't help but ask, his voice was still not in tune, it was like someone kicked him in the crotch of his pants, and it didn't ease up, it hurt and ...... It's indescribable, anyway.

"Big handsome guy, grandma is gone, it's time for me to go where I should go." Bobo walked up to me, his expression a little shimmering and sneaky.

She lowered her head slightly, but rolled her eyelids and squinted at me and said, "Before I go, can you help me fulfill a wish?" ”

"Say."

"I want to drive!"

"Good!"

Bo Botou didn't seem to expect me to agree so happily, so he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.

When I came to the entrance of the village, she circled around the police car, shook her head at me, and said with a bitter face: "I still like to drive a taxi." ”

"Good!"

"Good!" Gao Zhan said forcefully almost at the same time as me.

Bo Botou was stunned again: "You are all good people, but I am a ghost, how can I drive?" Even if I can drive, then run to the street, won't it be unmanned? ”

Gao Zhan was stunned for a moment, and turned his face to look at me: "So, it seems to be a bit difficult technically?" ”

"It's not hard."

I shook my head, took off my backpack, took out the yellow paper cinnabar, and said to Gao Zhan: "My physique is different from ordinary people, and she can't get on my body." If you want, let her get on you. ”

"No problem!" Gao Zhan said decisively, turned his head and smiled at Bobo: "As long as you don't think I'm ugly, don't think I'm fat." ”

I've never understood why there are special talismans in ghost arts.

In the wee hours of the morning after the rain, I seemed to be beginning to really understand what kind of existence ghost magic really is......

When the police car drove to Pinggu, I got out of the car, walked to a taxi that was lying on my stomach, knocked on the window, and showed my ID to the driver:

"Hello, I'm a police officer, because official business is necessary, I'm going to requisition your car now. My work permit and ID are in your possession, and you can call at any time to verify. ”

For the first time since I started working, I used my authority to wake up a napping taxi driver and 'requisition' his car.

"Step on the clutch, hang up a gear, slowly loosen the clutch, and give the oil ......"

Bobs are really smart, and they don't have the mechanical barriers that most of their female compatriots have.

It was only after teaching her a few times that she would be able to drive the car on the road.

Of course, at 3 a.m., the road is only empty.

And...... I only taught her to hang one gear.

In that case, if you press the accelerator to the end, the driver will be able to resonate with the sound of the exploding engine and experience the 'flying' ...... Turtle speed......

"Turn on the radio! Turn on the radio! Botou got a little carried away and pointed to the direction with one hand, and pointed to the stereo in the middle with the other, "You have to listen to music when you drive, it's the best match!" ”

Listening to her delicate voice, and then looking at Gao Zhan's fat round face, I couldn't help but roll my eyes and reach out to turn on the radio.

The radio station in the early hours of the morning was playing a very old song, but it was very appropriate-

'Your birthday reminds me, a friend from a long time ago;

It was a cold winter, and he was wandering the streets;

I thought he was begging for something, but he always shook his head;

He said it was his birthday, but no one wished him a happy birthday.

Happy birthday...... Happy birthday to you.

Hold my hand and sing this happy birthday song with me.

Happy birthday and happy birthday to you.

Have a happy life every day, don't care about how you spend your birthday.

This friend has long been missing, and I am a little lost in front of me;

There are people in this world who have nothing, and there are people who get too much ......'
