Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 156

After sending Li Huacai back to her own apartment, Xia Zhi "tactfully" rejected Li Huacai's invitation to go upstairs to play for a while, and headed straight home.I don't even look at what time it is, even if Xia Zhi accidentally ignores Li Huacai's carefully hidden joke-like thoughts, it is impossible for him to stay in someone else's house at such a late night, let alone the other party It's a woman, even though she's the only one living in the house.

After about ten minutes, Xia Zhi returned to his apartment. It was a wise choice to wash the tableware before departure. After that, he only needs to take a shower and rest for a while before going to sleep.I don’t know if it’s like this in Chiba. Near the apartment where Xia Zhi lived, everyone turned off the lights very early. It was only eleven or twelve o’clock when there was only streetlights left outside the window.Although eleven or twelve o'clock can't be said to be early.

But since everyone else has gone to sleep, it's better not to make too much noise, right?Xia Zhi held a dry towel and kept pressing it on his head, trying to absorb as much moisture as possible. After sitting for a while, his hair would not be wet, and he would not catch a cold.If you sleep with wet hair, you will easily catch a cold.

Xia Zhi also turned off the lights in the bedroom and sat quietly on the bed.There was no sound at all around. Although the curtains were not completely closed, it was not considered invisible, but in terms of visibility, it was only a level or two away, not much difference.

Usually at midnight and in such a dark environment, it is easy to encounter ghosts and the like, right?Judging from the scenes in novels and TV series, they either appear in places with poor lighting, or simply appear in dark places.Perhaps it can also be said that this situation was originally caused by ghosts.

Xia Zhi himself felt a little scared when he looked at the darkness created by himself.Although the switch is on the wall nearby, you shouldn't scare yourself enough to turn on the light.Smiling self-deprecatingly, Xia Zhi closed his eyes and reached out to grab his loose hair. It was almost done, so he lay down.

Lying on the bed, feeling a little cold, Xia Zhi reached out and pulled the quilt, and the neat quilt was pulled away with one hand.Originally, I didn't need this quilt a few days ago. Once autumn arrives, what should come will come back, and what should be cold will indeed get colder.

It's already autumn.

I thought with some emotion, and what followed was that I seemed to have been here for a long time.One month, two months, three months... It has already been eight months.This is really unpredictable.When they were still at home, who would have thought that they would be studying in a foreign country now?

miss home?Of course I do.But surprisingly, I didn't want to go back.I don’t know if it’s because the life here alone is too comfortable, but Xia Zhi feels that he is quite comfortable living alone... Although he is either going to class or working every day, he has been visited by many people who suddenly came out recently. Entangled, even though I suddenly have one extra day of free time a week, it has already been fully scheduled by the initiators of this free time... Suddenly I feel that it is not as comfortable as I imagined?Forget it, that's it.

Although I don't have a strong idea of ​​going home, I haven't been home since the end of the last semester, not to mention that the three-semester system just covers the Spring Festival. With Xiaomeng's personality, I probably won't You hope I will skip school and go back, right?Then I can only go back and take a look during the period after the end of the second semester.

Now...just do whatever you have to do.

Xia Zhi's consciousness gradually stopped in the darkness. When he opened his eyes again, the dedicated alarm clock on the bedside table had already rang. Xia Zhi felt that he could sleep for a while and slapped the alarm clock. He became honest in an instant, and Xia Zhi also woke up instantly because the shooting position was not too painful for his hand. He snuggled under the quilt and blew on his hand, trying to reduce the sharp pain.

Although this approach was not of much use, fortunately, Xia Zhi finally came to his senses.Wearing slippers, Xia Zhi deeply felt the chill of autumn - the temperature insulation of this apartment is not very good, not to mention that Xia Zhi's bedroom always has wind blowing in for some reason, even though it is hot in summer It will be comfortable, but in the fall it will be deadly.

Xia Zhi, who was supposed to wash up first and then change clothes, walked to the closet and opened it... There were no thicker clothes in it.Xia Zhi took a deep breath of cold air. He suddenly remembered that his thick clothes were still on their way to be mailed.So today I can only bite the bullet and continue to be a tough guy?
Forget it, it will get warmer by noon anyway, Xia Zhi thought as he rubbed his arms.But he still changed into his clothes honestly. After all, the school uniform was still relatively thick, compared to the shirt Xia Zhi wore as pajamas now.

When he came to the bathroom, Xia Zhi, who was brushing his teeth, put some hot water in it to avoid freezing his teeth and mouth, but he suddenly found... the water was quite warm, a little warm.After putting some hot water in the sink, Xia Zhi stretched his hands in...then squinted his eyes comfortably.Why don't you go to class today and just stay here...

After 2 minutes, the hot water lost its temperature. Xia Zhi came to his senses and quickly drained the cold water, then put some more hot water out and stretched his hand... towards the towel.People who can live independently, at least have this kind of restraint, right?It was certainly warm though.

After washing up, breakfast is next, which is not much different from before.Cook the rice, then go to fry eggs and cook.I remember that I didn't like eating eggs very much before, but I didn't resist it so much after coming here. As expected, people will change, especially those who are forced by life.After all, your breakfast is nothing special except for omelettes and bread.

Although I can do it myself, it always feels weird to eat rice in the morning. Although I don’t like eating eggs, it seems okay after I get used to it?At least the egg fried rice won’t make you resist so much, which should be a good thing, right?In a sense, it seems to be a kind of growth.

The so-called adults are people who adapt themselves to this society after giving up everything.Growth is the process of letting go of these things.

Why do others always use addition?Because it looks like growing up is a good thing.And the fact is indeed true. If people want to live, they cannot be separated from society. If they cannot be separated from society, they must adapt to this society. Growth itself is a kind of compromise. If growth is explained by subtraction, a person's life will be too pitiful. .

Even if what you give up is not something important or good.

This is probably also one of the manifestations of human beings tending to the same. The essence of human beings is a repeater. The person who said this sentence is simply a great philosopher with profound knowledge and broad experience.

But what does it matter?At least, it has nothing to do with people who think about fishing for a living all day long.That's enough. Not everyone can understand the truth contained in this profound discourse, and this truth doesn't help people make money, right?
Money is a good thing.If he had money, Xia Zhi could move into an apartment with air conditioning... At least he wouldn't have to shiver from the cold when eating.

After putting the lunch box into his schoolbag, Xia Zhi took the schoolbag and walked towards the entrance.He closed the door without saying a word, did not say "I'm leaving" as the Romans do, and did not need to say "I'm back" when he came back. Leaving aside the future, there is no such habit at all now.And then there's...there's no one who needs to report to this.

You said you were at home before?Xia Zhi himself has already practiced the ability to recognize people by listening to sounds. As long as he hears the footsteps going upstairs, he can tell who is in his family. Of course, it is only limited to the people in his family.However, I can still tell whether the other person is a member of my family or something.

This is not to say that people in Xiazhi’s family walk with special characteristics, but that after spending so long with them, you will become very aware of some of their characteristics, for example, when you are doing something Before the event, I had already expected that my parents would praise me, or give me a mixed doubles game, and this kind of footsteps is also one of the characteristics.

Although it sounds unreal, the sound of footsteps is actually a very recognizable sound. Of course, it is basically only useful to people who are very familiar with it.

I don’t want to say whether it is a useful or useless skill. After all, it can only allow you to tell whether the people going upstairs are your own family members. Of course, if you are the kind of player who secretly plays computer games when your parents are not at home, this skill is useful. The effect is extraordinary.There seems to be no useless skills in the world. The key is how you explore the potential of this skill.

Look at the sunken fruit next door. It doesn’t look very strong. Once it was developed, everyone was shocked and complained, “Oh my god, it can still be used like this.” So in fact, everyone is a piece of jade. The key is how you do it. It's just for development and use. People use bricks to build houses, and you use them to beat people. What's the use... It seems to be of some use?Forget it, never mind.

Xia Zhidi has come to this familiar street countless times, and the cold wind blowing brings a little bit of coolness, which has a unique artistic conception in late autumn, but this is actually irrelevant to Xia Zhi.The important thing is that he feels very cold now. He feels that he should run to class, otherwise it will be too cold to walk to school.
