Chapter 3: The Dead Man's Phone

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

I took a taxi straight to the mobile phone store from yesterday, this dead person's phone can definitely no longer be used, I still need to extend my lifespan for a few more years, I must get rid of it today, ... two thousand yuan is just two thousand yuan, I will give that little mustached boss a bargain, the sooner the better ...

I took a breath of cold air; it was as if Di Xiaohu had transformed into a different person after just one day of not seeing him. He had never spoken to me in such a tone before.

The number of residents in the entire building is not large; essentially, female employees do not live here, and those with girlfriends also do not reside here. Most choose to rent apartments outside. The dormitory rooms are small, have poor sound insulation, and are inconvenient for work.

I gave his shoulder a firm pat and said, "Alright, alright, I won't meddle too much. At least let me see what your wife looks like, since we are brothers after all"

Perhaps my commotion was too loud, and finally the rhythm inside came to a halt, followed by Di Xiaohu's languid voice: "Who is it... Who is so ungrateful..."

Little brother, you have indeed been proven right by me, haven't you? I have long said that this phone is not meant for people like you. It simply does not match! I will take it for 1,500.

The first thing I did upon returning to the dormitory was to go to Di Xiaohu's room to find him. Before I even reached his door, I heard familiar sounds: the creaking of the bed and the sound of heavy breathing.

As soon as I poked my head out, Di Xiaohu forcefully pushed me back, saying: "What are you looking at, hetushucom.com? Haven't you seen a beautiful woman before? Are you going crazy thinking about women? You even dare to have designs on my woman!"

Di Xiaohu waved his hands repeatedly, displaying an impatient demeanor: "I understand, mind your own business and don't meddle. I have finally found a girlfriend, so of course I need to meet her demands. You should go back and not disturb me."

I went to an internet café to play games, and just before noon, I suddenly received a call from Qin Dahai

However, this kick felt like a game to me, while Di Xiaohu suddenly fell down, as if he were a paper figure, lacking the strength to even kick someone.

The more I think about it along the way, the more I feel something is off. Ever since I picked up that phone, it has been bleeding continuously, which is clearly an ominous sign! I was still foolishly acting as if I had found a treasure; I was truly incredibly naive.

"Two thousand yuan is yesterday's price. Each thing has its own value. This type of machine cannot be sold elsewhere at all. One thousand five hundred is already very reasonable," said Little Hu, disdainfully staring at the computer screen.

Thus, those who remain in this dormitory are basically all single individuals from the electronics factory. I predict that Di Xiaohu will soon move out of the dormitory as well, likely to live a life of cultivation with his girlfriend. Now, I will be left without even a companion

What on earth is wrong with this guy today, getting so worked up over such a trivial matter and making such a big fuss with me!

I took two steps forward and glanced, and my heart suddenly sank as I clearly saw a large pool of fresh blood on the floor of Di Xiaohu's dormitory

With the one thousand five hundred given by the little mustached man, I ran for my life, finally feeling a sense of relief. This time, I have finally gotten rid of this plague. This serves as a lesson; next time, even if gold bricks fall at my doorstep, I must not pick them up.

I changed my approach and directly kicked the wooden door several times in succession. The triangular wooden door was almost about to be kicked in: "Di Xiaohu! You brat, come out! I have something to discuss with you!"

I knocked on the door twice with force and called out to Di Xiaohu twice from outside

I was instantly filled with rage. Is there such a shameless boss? Not only did they take advantage of me, but they also sent provocative photos after selling me the phone. I casually replied, "May the alpacas die!"

The sea has prompted me to visit Di Xiaohu's dormitory, as everyone is on the same line; I hope nothing unexpected has occurred

I had just finished using the computer at the internet café when my phone beeped twice. I unlocked it to find a multimedia message from an unfamiliar number, and a familiar photo appeared on the screen.

This person is none other than the little mustached owner of the mobile phone store from earlier. He is dressed in a black shirt and made a provocative gesture towards the screen with his little mustache. ... Following the photo are a few words www.hetushu.com July 1

It was as if no one heard me knocking, and the creaking continued; this is just too deep into the act!

I inhaled a noseful of dust, what kind of matter is this? Why do they say I have designs on that woman: "Just a glance, just a glance, a glance won't lead to pregnancy!"

I hung up the phone in a panic, my head buzzing, and hurriedly ran outside with my phone in hand

Zheng Yan! My girlfriend has already said not to let you see it, so what are you looking at! Get back! If you sneak a look again, I will take your life!

I was also taken aback; Di Xiaohu surprisingly did not come to work. Upon reflection, I thought that the lad must have overworked himself last night. Every few hours, I heard some commotion, and he must have worked at least over ten times last night. I estimate he is now utterly exhausted.

What are you up to in there? You look like a ghost

His hair was disheveled and stood up on his head, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and his eyes were filled with bloodshot veins. His face had no trace of color, as pale as a sheet of paper, making him look as if he had lost more than ten pounds overnight

"One thousand five? Didn't the boss say two thousand yesterday?" I thought to myself, how can this boss be like this, taking advantage of the situation!

My goodness! How can there be so much blood

I thought it was time to remind Di Xiaohu that no matter how beautiful his new girlfriend is, some matters should still be approached with caution. Even the most durable things cannot withstand such treatment; excessive indulgence could even lead to losing one's life

Damn! Is this bastard trying to kill himself? He has been working overtime since last night, and it's been over ten hours, and he's still playing around

I told you that you can't keep playing like this. You've been at it since last night, and if this continues, it could lead to serious consequences. You can't just neglect your job for your girlfriend. If you don't go to work tomorrow, the boss will be furious.

Go to hell! Di Xiaohu has had enough, and came up to kick me in the stomach.

I kicked twice more, thinking to myself, have you been played for a fool by a woman? You can't even recognize my voice.

Di Xiaohu was wearing a black tank top and a pair of large floral shorts, which were still wet. However, these details were not important; what mattered was his appearance, which resembled that of a ghost

Just as Di Xiaohu was about to close the door, I suddenly noticed something unusual about his underwear. Earlier, I thought the dampness was due to something else, but now I realized it was blood! Fresh blood was dripping down from the middle of his underwear, drop by drop

He shot me a glance and paused for a few seconds: "So it's Zheng Yan, huh? Why did you have to come at such an inconvenient time, especially when I'm in the middle of something important? Do I have a grudge against you?"

Qin Dahai first asked me how my health was, and then inquired why Di Xiaohu had not come to work, mentioning that no one answered the phone when he called. He wondered if something had happened.

I saw that he was really angry, so I made a concession, thinking to myself, isn't it just a woman? You all have been hiding inside all along.

Forget it, let it be one thousand five hundred! Consider it a bargain for you! I don't want to stir up trouble anymore; having money is always better than having none

Even if you are as fierce as a tiger, have you considered the feelings of the girl? Working such excessive overtime could jeopardize both of you! No matter how you play, there should be a limit!

When I found the little mustached boss, he was playing a game on the computer. Upon learning that I was going to handle the phone, his eyes squinted into a line, and his expression of pride was evident.

I casually picked up some food on the street and returned to the dormitory, which is three stops away from the main street. Originally, it was a dormitory building for employees of an old fertilizer factory, which the owner rented out to serve as accommodation for company staff.

Di Xiaohu barely managed to get up while leaning against the door frame, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets

The wooden door finally opened, and a head of Di Xiaohu poked out from inside. When I opened my eyes to look, I was almost scared out of my wits

Upon hearing this, my heart suddenly skipped a beat, and my scalp tingled. Did Shanshan die and her phone went missing as well? Does this mean I have picked up a dead person's phone?

I played CF at the internet café for a while, and my eyelids started to droop, making me feel drowsy. This is due to not having slept well last night. Since it is still early, I will go back to catch up on some sleep and also take the opportunity to check on Di Xiaohu's girlfriend.
