"Well, maybe there's something I can't figure it out."

"What about it later? Did you die?"

"No, but it was night, and the situation was pretty bad. I was sent to the hospital."

"Well, it seems that there is something like this. I was still preparing for the exam at that time and I didn't have a deep impression."

"Yes, alright, I have to go back and continue working."

He stood up and patted his pants.

"etc!"

"What's wrong?"

Xiao Han stared at him with confusion, as if he had thought of something.

"Uh, nothing..."

Xiao Han scratched his head.

"Well, then I'll leave first, bye!"

"If you have time, go to the store to sit."

The two waved goodbye, and after he walked away, Xiao Han sighed.

"Brother Gu's words are very poor. He changed to a boat racing job at the beginning of this year. At this time last year, he was working as a security guard in a gold shop on Guanqian Street."

security guard?

Ah right.

Maybe I saw that Phantom was not wearing a police uniform, but a security uniform.

Xiao Han should have thought of this too. He threw his eyes into the air, pressed his head with his thumb and thought, and said to me for a long time.

"I remember that last year there was a wealthy family living here. My daughter committed suicide by jumping into the river. I heard that she was dissatisfied with her parents' marriage here and used this measure to resist. However, after being rescued, she probably realized that she was too willful and obeyed her parents' arrangements."

He touched his chin.

"If you are not satisfied with your parents' marriage, you must have already had a crush on someone you like, but the crush on someone you like is not worthy of, for example, a security guard or something."

I probably understand what Xiao Han means by saying this.

"The ghost you saw should be Brother Gu's obsession."

Xiao Han guessed.

Obsession?

He explained to me while walking around the circle.

"On the day last year, the two agreed to meet here, but the girl's family secretly followed her here and wanted to take her away. During the argument, the girl jumped out of the river. Brother Gu might have arrived late that day, but she had been waiting for her..."

"The phantom you see should be Brother Gu's obsession. There is a saying that ghosts are transformed after death. Think about it, Pu Songling wrote the story of hanged ghosts in the Stories from a Chinese Studio. Isn't that the case? The woman in the story has become a ghost and has been repeating what she did before her death. Since the obsession of the deceased can be seen, shouldn't the living besides?"

"That is, what I see is not the soul of the dead?"

"It should be, because you have said before that the ghost you saw is very similar to Brother Gu, right?"

"But I don't understand one place."

“What is it?”

"Why do you think of the two dating here?"

"Don't you understand? I just said that because this is Hu Xiang Bridge."

Hu Xiang sent the bridge, Hu Xiang sent the lovesickness...

"Lovesickness?!"

"Well, there is another name on this bridge called Hu Xiangsi Bridge. It seems to have a folk story that is not true or false. As a date place, don't you think it's the most appropriate? But what I just said is half mixed with guesses about that story, in short."

He stretched.

"Ah, since you know it's not my dad's ghost, how about I'll take you back to the hotel to rest early?"

He nodded silently.

Is there any folk legend of this bridge? I’m a little curious and check it out after I go back.

When she arrived at the entrance of the hotel, Xiao Han stopped and said.

"It's here, then I-"

"etc."

"Um?"

"I haven't finished what you said to me during lunch."

"Hmm? What's the sentence?"

He asked back with a deliberate intent.

"that is......"

I blushed, the more I wanted to say it, the less I couldn't say it.

"Ah hahahaha, OK OK, I know."

He held up his chin and raised the corner of his mouth, as if he had thought of something interesting.

"Although humans are very ugly, I still recommend that you not give up on the matter of integrating into the crowd, because you will probably miss some very interesting things, such as what kind of emotions Brother Gu has been waiting for his lover on Pingjiang Road, and the lover is helpless to meet his lover."

"Saving the complex human nature carefully, whether it is happy or touching, can make the monotonous inner world of black and white colored. If the heart you believe in can never admit that there is someone who is your friend..."

"Then let me be your friend?"

I also carefully reached out my hand to hold him.

"Thank you."

Then I showed a long-lost smile, just like the sky like a sunny day after the rain, and my mood became brighter.

"By the way, Nangong, do you have a cell phone?"

I shook my head.

"No, because I've always felt it was unnecessary."

But now it seems that it is necessary.

"That's a pity."

After a while of silence, he smiled and said to me as if he was remembering something.

"But it doesn't matter, I will be super abilities. We will definitely meet again in the future. It's not too late to tell me your mobile phone number at that time."

He smiled and waved his hand, then turned around and walked into the crowd on the street and left.

It must have been back to Tingyutang, and the task of informing his grandfather to go back for lunch was not completed. I wonder if his brother would be angry with him?

I thought about the meaning of his last sentence, and looked at the umbrella still swimming in my hand. The water droplets left by the rain just now stayed on the umbrella surface brushed by tung oil, reflecting the sunlight.

Ah, I remembered it.

Forgot to return the umbrella to him.
