the landlord is a former

Shi Jinzhi thought about the question of getting back together for a long time.

She absent-mindedly went to Qiao Lu's house for dinner, the two pondered over the lyrics for the song, agreed to go on a trip when they had time, and returned home just after two o'clock.

It was a cloudy day in the morning, but now it started to rain, the heavy rain mixed with the wind, and it was chilly.Shi Jinzhi parked the car in the yard, and the wind blew her hair into a mess as soon as she got there, and the chill went straight into her collar. She shrank her neck and was about to enter the house when she suddenly heard a strange sound.

She has a very keen sense of hearing, and she followed the source of the sound and walked slowly towards the green bushes outside the courtyard. The dead leaves and broken branches wet by the rain were messy and scattered, and there were rustling movements coming from inside.

—— meow

The little milk cat was only the size of a palm, shrunk into a ball, its orange-white hair was drenched and stuck to its body, its eyes were half-opened, its small mouth was slightly opened, and it let out a very soft and miserable cry.

Feeling pity in Shi Jinzhi's heart, he carefully reached out to grab it, and quickly walked into the house.

It was cold outside, and the house was relatively warmer, but only a little bit. Shi Jinzhi took the kitten into the bathroom, turned on hot water and showered the sand on its body, but couldn't find a dry cloth, so he simply took his own towel for it I wiped my body, then wrapped myself in a towel and moved into the small room next door, and turned on the air conditioner.

The little guy was shivering from the cold, and his hair was trembling. Shi Jin held it with one hand through the towel, and gently stroked its little head with the other. Every time it was touched, it shrank its neck timidly. Make a small whine, softening people's hearts.

She wiped off the water on the kitten, held it against her stomach, and stood near the air outlet of the air conditioner. After waiting for a while, she felt the kitten's body temperature and breathed a sigh of relief.

When she was a child, the family raised Corgi, but since she was three years old, her world only has the piano, and even the time to play with the dog is squeezed out of the gap between piano practice, let alone taking care of it.

Confused at the moment, like a novice mother.

When I was in high school, there were often stray cats in the school, wandering around the campus, not afraid of people at all, and the school did not chase them away.Some students buy cat food out of their own pockets, and Fu Baiqiu is one of them. She likes small animals, but Fu's mother is allergic to animal hair and cannot keep them at home, so she pours her love into stray cats.

Shi Jinzhi suddenly had a flash of light in his mind, he took out his cell phone from his bag and made a call...

Fu Baiqiu was in a meeting when she received the call. The phone vibrated in her pocket. She took it out and pressed it without looking.

A forest fire broke out in a county near Rongcheng two days ago. Two firefighters who went to the front line of the rescue died unfortunately. The remains sent to the funeral home were only a pile of scattered bones and ashes. It is quite difficult to completely restore the appearance of life high.Fu Baiqiu and his colleagues held a meeting to discuss the plan, and the memorial service will be held this Sunday, so time is tight.

"Clean up the coke, work overtime today, work hard, and put together the skeleton first." She stared at the photo on the computer with serious eyebrows.

The families of the two heroes provided a lot of photos during their lifetime. The most difficult facial restoration can only rely on capturing the expressions and subtle features in the photos. Fortunately, there are now technological forces to help.

"Tell the people in the 3D printing room to lock the door later."

"Alright, Miss Fu."

The phone in his pocket started to vibrate again, Fu Baiqiu frowned impatiently, took it out and saw that the call note was "time".

At that time, the two parties exchanged numbers, and she hesitated before typing the note, whether to write her full name or "Miss Shi", feeling uncomfortable with either, and finally typed "Shi".For so many years, she has been alone and has no friends. The most calls she receives are nothing more than sales or intermediaries. She never thought that one day that person's name would appear on the caller screen again.

"What's the matter?" She answered with a cold tone.

The other end was obviously stunned, and the voice was soft and cautious: "Maomao, did I disturb you?"

Fu Baiqiu pursed his lips, moved his throat up and down, and softened his tone: "No, why did you call me suddenly?"

"I picked up a kitten outside the yard just now, and I wanted to ask you if I can keep it at home." Shi Jinzhi's voice was low, but there was a little girl-like joy on his face that he couldn't see.

Fu Baiqiu subconsciously said: "If you like it, you can raise it."

Blunt it and regret it, this was her mantra in the past, when we were together at that time, she followed most of the things according to the times, the other party was happy, whatever was fine, it is a bit inappropriate to say this now.

"Then how do I take care of it? What should I buy for it? It's like cat food... It's so small, it's not as big as my hand, it was soaked when I picked it up, will it catch a cold?" ?” Shi Jinzhi laughed through the phone, unable to conceal his curiosity and excitement in his words.

Fu Baiqiu listened to her read a lot, as if he saw the scene when she gave her a lecture in the second year of high school.

[Squad monitor, monitor, teach me another question]

[The same idea as the previous question, write it yourself]

[But the conditions of the two questions are different, and the state just now is also different, I am stupid now, I forgot]

【…】

"Sister Fu, let's go over now."

The voice of a colleague interrupted the memory, Fu Baiqiu nodded, and said to the phone: "Take him to the pet hospital for an examination first, and ask the doctor what to buy. I'm busy here, so let's not talk about it."

Then I remembered something, and added: "I'm working overtime today, so I won't go back to eat at night, so you can eat whatever you want."

"……it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Fu Baiqiu packed his things and went to the dressing room with his colleagues.

Shi Jinzhi took the kitten to the largest pet hospital in Rongcheng, after a checkup, it was found that there was nothing wrong with it, the male one was just one month old, and then he bought a big bag of pet supplies including cat food and went back.Although it is not a breed of cat, the little guy was born cute and soft, with a pink nose and pink meat pads, a straight face, chest, abdomen and legs are snow-white, and he looks good when he is young.

She named the little one "Pudding" because the hair on its back and head is light orange, like a piece of sweet pudding melted in milk tea.

Raising a cat is not an impulsive thought. Shi Jinzhi felt that he was very close to Pudding, and he fell in love with it at the first sight. Considering his current financial situation, he could still afford a cat.After she took care of her for a few days, the little guy gradually became familiar with her, clinging to her all the time, rolling over when she scratched her stomach, very docile and well-behaved, a good-tempered cat.

With cats and a piano, her vacation-like life becomes less monotonous.

"Pudding Cub, come here."

A small furry head protruded from behind the sofa, pattering over with four unsteady little paws, Shi Jinzhi bent down to put down the food bowl, and stretched out his index finger: "Give me a high five."

Pudding raised his little paw, and the pink|tender meat|pad touched her, it was soft, and he had to touch it before every meal.

A small amount of kitten food in the basin was soaked in warm water until it was semi-soft, and some fish bone powder and minced meat were added. The pudding was eating well, Shi Jinzhi rubbed its little head, and said in a warm voice: "Eat well, sister is going to take a bath. .”

She stood up, looked up at the wall clock on the wall, it was nine o'clock, and then looked out at the dark sky through the window.

Fu Baiqiu hasn't come back yet.

The man seemed to be very busy these days, he left early and returned late, and when he came back he looked exhausted, he didn't speak, went upstairs to wash and sleep.

However, as soon as she stepped into the bathroom, Fu Baiqiu came back.

She didn't notice the pudding eating in the corner. She only heard the sound of water splashing in the direction of the bathroom. She paused for a moment. She inadvertently saw a few sheets of paper spread out on the sofa, and picked them up curiously.

It is a handwritten staff manuscript, Shi Jinzhi's handwriting.

Fu Baiqiu felt like he was reading a Martian text. He obviously couldn't understand anything, but he held these few pieces of paper for a long time, and a strange intuition floated in his heart.

"Maomao?" Shi Jinzhi came out with a basket of clothes in his arms. Seeing her holding the manuscript he had written and looking at it, he panicked. He put down the basket and snatched it back, hiding behind him, "You... when did you come back? ?”

"It didn't take long." Fu Baiqiu's chaotic eyes regained clarity, his face looked tired, and his eyes swept over her hands behind her back, "Don't hide, I can't understand again."

Her voice was a little hoarse, her brows couldn't hide her fatigue, Shi Jinzhi quietly breathed a sigh of relief, put the manuscript on the piano bench, with a coquettish smile on her lips: "You seem to be very busy these days."

"I'm done with my work today, and I'll rest tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Fu Baiqiu avoided her straightforward gaze.

Living together for more than half a month, she thought she would be calm after getting used to it, but she still couldn't look at Shi Jinzhi calmly, not knowing what she was avoiding.

"If it's okay, I'll go up."

"Wait..." Shi Jinzhi's throat slipped slightly, he hesitated to speak.

Fu Baiqiu didn't move, didn't look at her, quietly waiting for what she had to say, but staying under her gaze for one more second would be a torment.

"I want to know...why did you choose to engage in the funeral industry." After hesitating for a long time, Shi Jinzhi finally swallowed the truth and asked another question.

This was a doubt that had been on her mind for a long time.

Could it be related to the air crash?She has been thinking about it at night for more than half a month.

Fu Baiqiu smiled calmly, turned his head, and raised his eyebrows: "Are you scared?"
