What It’s Like Being a Vampire

When Xiang Kun woke up, it was after one o'clock in the afternoon the next day, and his sleep time was within the normal range.

After getting up, it is still a routine self-examination, and then change the food and water for the canary.

I looked at my phone, but found that there were several missed calls. Among them, I called the phone number I met for the first time three times, and Director Lin's phone number also had two missed calls.

He was a little strange, because he had made an agreement with Director Lin and the others before. He would have two days off every week. Don't contact him. They had already agreed, and it was even written into the contract. Hard to make a phone call? What's the hurry?

Although he had already completed the main framework and written a lot of core module codes for that project, he didn't hand it over there completely, but handed it over bit by bit, and then asked Ma Hongguo to arrange for him to work in the team over there. Hire people to do things as required. Just like a building, the framework has already been set up. It is enough to lay bricks and paint according to the fixed procedures. The method and format of the realization are all given to them. No matter what problem, there is a problem that can be solved at the level of Ma Hongguo.

So what can they be in a hurry for?

Xiang Kun called Director Lin back, and it took eight rings before he was picked up. Judging from the sound, Director Lin should have been taking a nap just now.

"Mr. Xiang, you finally called back." Director Lin said.

"What happened?" Xiang Kun asked strangely.

"Our boss wants to find you, but he can't add you on WeChat, and won't answer your phone calls..." Director Lin said helplessly.

Xiang Kun was even more surprised: "Your boss? You don't mean that Ms. Zhang, right? What does she want me for? Isn't our cooperation directly connected with us, and she doesn't understand technology."

"I don't know, she went to your city a few days ago, you can call her back, the number ending in 939 is her." Director Lin said.

After finishing the call with Director Lin, Xiang Kun looked at the mobile phone number that had dialed three times with the ending 939 in the missed call. After thinking about it, he just created a contact person and filled in Zhang Qian's name, but he didn't call back. .

Because he probably guessed what Zhang Qian wanted to do, 99% still wanted to explore the secrets of that A4 paper, and he didn't give her the idea of ​​solving the puzzle.

Xiang Kun thought about the special "emotion" when he sensed the calligraphy lyrics in the van yesterday before drinking blood, so he sensed the words again,

But this time, I didn't feel that special "emotion". However, because of the previous experience, he deliberately searched for that feeling when he sensed it this time, and he could still feel a little bit of it, as if there was nothing there.

Xiang Kun sensed it for a while, but couldn't "grasp" that emotion like yesterday, so he simply gave up, clicked on WeChat, and sent a message to Xia Libing:

"Are you there?"

A minute later, Lao Xia returned with a dazed expression.

"You probably haven't gone to work yet, are you resting in the hospital?"

"At home, what's up?"

"Oh, it's nothing. I ran into your cousin Xia Tianhuo yesterday."

Naturally, Xiang Kun's main purpose was to ask him about that painting, but Lao Xia was as refined as a fox, and it was too abrupt to ask directly, so he had to find an excuse to bring up the topic first. Brother Xia Tianhuo is the best talker.

Xia Libing: "Oh."

Two seconds later, when Xiang Kun was thinking about how to continue chatting, Xia Libing said again: "Did you hit him?"

Xiang Kun stared blankly, and was shocked by Lao Xia's brain circuit again. He sent a stunned expression, and then continued: "What are you talking about? How could I hit your cousin? Don't say it, I feel like a violent maniac." Does it look good..."

Xia Libing: "Oh."

Xiang Kun found the topic: "Why do you think I will hit your brother?"

Xia Libing: "He has been abroad for the past few years, and he doesn't like to go out very much when he comes back. It is unlikely that you will run into each other on the road. But he likes Nana. You and Nana often play together. He probably thought you were together. So follow you. You are a very vigilant and observant person. When you find him stalking you, beat him up, and then he gives his name, takes me and my cousin out to beg for mercy, and then he is stalked by you I am overwhelmed by your force, you don’t know each other without fighting, and you have a good conversation. This is the process of acquaintance between you, I guess, isn’t it?”

Xiang Kun looked at the lump of words that Lao Xia typed a little speechlessly. Although it was somewhat different from the actual situation, let alone, the idea was really right.

Whether in reality or online, under normal circumstances, Lao Xia rarely initiates a topic, starts a chat, asks her questions, and she usually responds very concisely. Unless it involves some situation that needs her analysis, or a topic that interests her, she will talk or type a lot at once.

"Your cousin is actually quite talkative and a reasonable person." Xiang Kun replied.

Xia Libing: "He looks fierce, but he actually attaches great importance to other people's feelings. He thinks he is straightforward, but in fact he is not at all. He is very indecisive when encountering things. He probably didn't think about it when he went to you. What are you going to do? It’s very simple to deal with him, pull him to find a place to fight, he will admire you if he wins, or treat him to a meal, he is very greedy and loves meat the most, based on your Cooking skills, cook a meal for him, and he will call you big brother after eating. He and Nana have not met a few times in total, and his feelings for Nana are basically made up by himself. It would be nice if he invited him to another meal one meal at a time, so that he could recognize the reality."

Xiang Kun's head was full of black lines. Is this Lao Xia's version of "Hit a stick and give me a sweet date"?

"You really know your cousin."

"As I said, I observe everyone."

"But he has already gone abroad, so there is no way to invite him to dinner."

"Then you don't have to ask, just ask me."

Behind this sentence, there is a panda holding a bowl and begging.

Xiang Kun sent a laughing emoji: "When I go back to Erythias, or when you come back, I'll cook for you."

Then he turned to the "topic" as if joking: "By the way, do you still have the brush calligraphy I gave you before I came back? You don't think the writing is ugly, so lose it?"

When I chatted with Lao Xia about this calligraphy last time, Lao Xia replied to a chat record, and she asked a person who seemed to be a master of calligraphy how to read that calligraphy, and the evaluation she got was naturally not ideal. So it sounds quite natural to ask this question.

Xia Libing sent a photo, and on a table, his lettering was spread out in the middle.

Then he sent three words: "I'm watching."

Looking at? Xiang Kun quickly sensed it again, but it felt the same as before. The special "emotion" he felt yesterday was only vague, but he "can't grasp it."

"What are you looking at?" Xiang Kun sent an emoji with a question mark.

Xia Libing: "Analyze your mood and state when you wrote this word."

Xiang Kun's eyes widened, and he replied in surprise: "Why do you need to analyze this? From these words, can it be analyzed?"

The most important thing for "emotional injection" items is the emotion when making them. Did Lao Xia feel something? Otherwise, how can you find the key point at once?

Xia Libing: "Aside from analyzing this, what else can I analyze? I don't know calligraphy, and there is no need to analyze calligraphy for the character you wrote. But I really can't analyze it. If you write a few more characters for me, I will You can make a comparison, but now there are too few samples to make a judgment.”

Well, that makes sense...

But the problem is, most people don't know what to analyze from the words sent by friends, right?

Xiang Kun: "Okay, I'll find time to write more pictures for you."

Xia Libing: "I heard from Nana and my cousin that you sing this song very well? Record it and let me listen to it?"

Xiang Kun: "I'll show you a live episode when I go back next time. I'm a live performer. If I record audio, I can't hear the essence."

Xia Libing ignored his boasting: "Okay."

Xiang Kun asked again with concern: "Are you getting used to being in the hospital recently? Will it be very busy? Do your psychiatrists have to be on duty at night?"

"Not busy, no need." Xia Libing's reply became concise again.

After finishing chatting with Lao Xia, Xiang Kun sat on a chair and slowly sorted out the information he just got.

Judging from what Lao Xia himself said and the background of the photo, the picture was placed in her bedroom - when he went to Lao Xia's house to cook for her last time, he saw that table, It was in Lao Xia's bedroom.

And Lao Xia is not on the night shift, that is to say, he should sleep at home at night-go out for nightlife or just spend the night outside, you can veto it without even thinking about it.

Then why can't induce Lao Xia to dream after sensing that word many times at night? Does this girl not sleep? She is not a vampire like herself...

And even a vampire like Xiang Kun has to sleep a lot after drinking blood every week!

However, when I sensed the special "emotion" on that painting yesterday, it was during the working hours of the weekdays. Lao Xia should have been in the hospital. Could it be that the special "emotion" sensed at that time was not Lao Xia's? Who was at Lao Xia's house at that time and was in contact with that painting?

There is another question, why does Lao Xia analyze his words?

Generally speaking, if a friend sends a picture of calligraphy written by yourself, unless you and that friend are both interested in calligraphy, and the handwriting written by that friend is very good, and you are a master of calligraphy, you will pick it up and taste it from time to time. and analyze it?

Lao Xia said that it is normal to not be able to analyze calligraphy, but who would take the words sent by friends to analyze the mood of the other party when they wrote them?

Well, Lao Xia is not an ordinary person, so it doesn't seem too strange to put this on her.

...

Xia Libing's home, in the bedroom of Eitong City.

On her desk, in addition to the calligraphy of the lyrics of "Someone Like Me" written by Xiang Kun, there is an open laptop next to it, with multiple documents and pictures open on the screen.

If the photos he just took were brought to the display screen, Xiang Kun would be surprised to find that on these pictures, there are texts written by him in various periods, various forms he filled out, various test papers, and some of his own. The brush calligraphy I posted on the Internet during the second year of middle school even included the "Swordsman" by Jia Dao.

Xiang Kun thought that the "analysis" that Lao Xia said was just to analyze the words he wrote and observe the font shape of those words. Naturally, he would not have thought that Xia Libing's "analysis" was far deeper than he imagined. many.

After receiving Xiang Kun's brush calligraphy of the lyrics, Xia Libing created a special folder to put the analysis results and reference materials, and then this folder began to grow bigger and bigger.

In the past month, Xia Libing has basically disassembled the 301 characters on the picture that Xiang Kun sent her. Each character was disassembled, photographed and entered into the computer. Each character was similar to Xiang Kun's handwriting in different periods in the past A comparison was made, not only with the writing brush, but also with the hard-brush writing.

For the time being, I only know that the style of Xiang Kun's calligraphy has changed a lot from before. The writing is more regular, more restrained, and the handwriting is more stable. His control over the brush is obviously better than when he was in middle school. Much better, but other things can't be seen for the time being.

However, Xia Libing was very sure that there must be a reason why Xiang Kun sent her this picture.

Based on her analysis of Xiang Kun's character, he was by no means the kind of person who would give away his not-so-well-written brush calligraphy to others, let alone write on this kind of rough-edged paper that was obviously used for practice.

Whether it is cooking or making wood carvings, it can be seen that he is a person who pays great attention to details and the perception of others. This can be seen from the wood carvings sent by Xiang Kun posted by Tang Baona in the group, even the wooden box of the wood carvings They were all made by Xiang Kun himself, and the burrs were carefully removed.

From which point of view, Xiang Kun shouldn't have given her such a crude rough-edged paper to practice brush calligraphy.

And from the occasional chat between the two of them afterwards, Xiang Kun always mentioned this matter intentionally or unintentionally, which can also prove this point.

At first she thought the focus was on the lyrics, so she listened to the song "Someone Like Me" many times and analyzed the lyrics of the song in detail, but soon she realized that the core should still be on the words—otherwise There's no need for Xiang Kun to send this painting by himself.

Today, Xiang Kun took the initiative to mention that she had planned to ask directly. Regardless of whether Xiang Kun's answer was true or not, there was a certain chance of getting some clues from his reply.

However, judging from Xiang Kun's reply after she said "analyze the mood and state when writing", Xia Libing knew that what she said should be in the right direction.

Xiang Kun sent her this painting because it expressed his certain mood or emotion? Want her to experience it?

But why let her experience it through words? Not directly?

How can ordinary people do such a thing?

But thinking that it was Xiang Kun, Xia Libing felt a little relieved. He was indeed not an ordinary person, and it seemed normal to do such strange things.

Could it be...has he seen something?

This is actually a test he put on me?

Xia Libing looked at the words on the table thoughtfully.

In the chat with Xiang Kun, there was another sentence that caught her attention, which was to ask if she would be busy in the hospital and if she would be on duty at night.

Judging from her analysis and judgment of Xiang Kun's character, Xiang Kun would not show her such a meaningless gesture of concern, because Xiang Kun must know that she doesn't need it, and asked "Are you busy? Do you want to be on duty at night?" There was no follow-up question purpose, and it did not conform to Xiang Kun's usual speaking style.

It can only be proved that this question is a temptation proposed by Xiang Kun for a certain purpose, but his purpose is not clear to him for the time being.

What is the purpose of asking me if I am busy or if I need to work the night shift?

If I work the night shift, I have to stay in the hospital at night, and if I don't work the night shift, I will rest at home at night.

Xia Libing seemed to be aware of something faintly, but after thinking about it, he didn't have a clue.

Looking at the time, she was about to go to work, she didn't continue to think deeply, closed all the files on the notebook, and went to sleep.

Then I began to slowly fold the words, folded it into an A4 paper size, put it in a transparent file bag, and then put it in the fabric handbag I usually carry things to the hospital.
