Chapter 1579 Otherworld (284)(2/3)
Through the information network of Horama City, Pang Xiaonan quickly found Carlos' residence.
It was a relatively high-end community, an apartment used by Horama City to accommodate high-end talents. Pang Xiaonan was surprised. Did Carlos change his gender halfway through? Has he become an aspiring young man?
Of course, you will only find out after seeing everything, so Pang Xiaonan set out from the police station and rode a public bicycle to Carlos' residence.
After knocking on the door, he waited for a long time at the door. Pang Xiaonan waited for Carlos to open the door. It was around 9 o'clock in the morning, and Carlos was still wearing a fluffy hair, so he obviously had just gotten up.
"It's you?" Carlos actually recognized Pang Xiaonan, who is worthy of being a top student who graduated from a doctorate and has a good memory.
"It's me." Pang Xiaonan smiled at Carlos.
"How did you find me?" Carlos let Pang Xiaonan into the room. "You sit down and I'll wash my face."
Before Pang Xiaonan could answer, Carlos turned and entered the bathroom.
Pang Xiaonan looked at the house and the environment was very warm, unlike boring people like Carlos who could clean up.
In less than 5 minutes, Carlos left the bathroom and came to Pang Xiaonan's side, repeating the question, "How did you find me?"
Pang Xiaonan smiled and said, "As soon as you enter Horama City, your information has been entered into the city system of Horama City, so I asked a friend from the police station to find out your residence."
"Oh," Carlos suddenly realized, "You are a government worker, say, come, aren't you going to drive me out of Horama City?"
Carlos remembered that he had told Pang Xiaonan about his ideals. Perhaps Pang Xiaonan thought that people like him should not stay in Horama City, so he came here to drive him away.
"Of course not, I came to see you specifically." Pang Xiaonan wanted to see how Carlos' mental state was. It was obvious that Carlos's life was quite moist.
Carlos made a cup of coffee for Pang Xiaonan, "Tell you honestly, I just got up. This is not because I am lazy, but to save a breakfast. Do you know that if I get up at 10 o'clock, breakfast and lunch will be solved together."
"Did you still not find a job?" Pang Xiaonan was very curious about how Carlos survived.
"Life is only a few decades long, why do you have to find a job to restrain your hands and feet?" Carlos began to reason with Pang Xiaonan. His tone was very plain, "Only one person is complete without a job."
"But you don't have an income, how do you survive? Did you rent this place? Do you want a lot of rent?" Even if such a big house is deliberately lowered by Horama City, it still requires a lot of money.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce it to you. This is my classmate's house. He also invited me to come to Horama City. I live here for the time being. He gave me a room and I don't have to pay the rent, but he asked me to keep the house clean."
Carlos' tone has always been very plain, and this boring person always makes people feel as calm as water. This may be the intuitive feeling given to people who have no desires and no desires.
"In other words, you are working as a nanny for your classmate, and then he waived your rent. Is that true?" Pang Xiaonan finally understood why Carlos could live in such a good house.
"It's almost the same." Carlos took a sip of coffee.
"But you want to eat," Pang Xiaonan was still puzzled, "Is it not worth eating? Do your classmates still provide you with food?"
Carlos shook his head. His golden curly hair was really cute. "I eat very little. Sometimes I eat a few slices of bread at noon. Sometimes my classmates would bring some food back. He doesn't mind sharing it with me."
"No wonder you are so thin!" Pang Xiaonan was really convinced. He didn't even care about food alone. No wonder Carlos was able to live bored for such a long time.
"I'm so thin because I eat less." Carlos blinked. In fact, he is very handsome and has a standard model figure. "I'm inherited, and my dad is so thin too."
"Then what is your main expense?" Pang Xiaonan felt that it was impossible for a person to have no money.
"Uh..." Carlos thought for a moment, "probably bought bread and other food."
"Don't you have to use money?"
"I bought special food, which is not expensive, and those things that are about to expire are actually still good."
Carlos' careful calculation surprised Pang Xiaonan. A doctor of literature can even be rigorous in science and engineering.
"Then what is your daily entertainment? People always have to move around. You can't lie in bed all day long." It's hard for Pang Xiaonan to imagine sitting alone without moving all day long. Of course, it saves energy, but it's impossible for someone to sit there.
"I get up in the morning and I'll go out," Carlos shrugged. "Sometimes I sit in the park and read books, sometimes I listen to music at home, or go to the supermarket to buy specials."
It seems that Carlos's life is arranged in a regular manner.
"However, the park is not worry-free now..." Carlos seemed a little helpless.
"What's wrong?" Pang Xiaonan hadn't been to the park in Horama City yet, and didn't know what was going on there, which made Carlos so frustrated.
Carlos told a story.
The parks in Horama City are beautiful. Originally, Horama City was built in a mountainous area, so Horama City is almost a park city, and you can see parks of all sizes everywhere. This is also the best place for Carlos to pass the time.
There is a park near this community. The park is not big, but very quiet. When Carlos first arrived in Horama City, he liked to take a book to the park, find a bench, eat bread, read books, and sometimes sit for a whole day.
But one day, a young woman passed by him and protested to him.
"You can't sit here all day and do nothing!"
Carlos looked up at the young woman with a strange look: "Why?"
"No, you just can't sit here like this every day!"
The young woman was a little unreasonable.
"I'm not doing nothing, I'm reading."
Carlos felt that the young woman was making things difficult for her, which was a bit inexplicable.
"It's not okay to read books. You can't sit here and read books. If you want to read books, you have to find a place where there is no one."
It was almost dusk at this time, and there were more people getting off work.
"No, this is a public place, why can't I sit here and read books?"
Carlos believes he has the right to sit anywhere and read.
"You sit here and read books, which has affected my mood!"
The young woman's reasons seem a bit unreasonable.
"It is my freedom to read books, and your mood is what you should control."
Carlos thought the reason for the young woman was too incredible, just like when you saw someone crying, it affected your mood, and you insisted that others not cry.
"No, no, you don't understand yet. It's not the first day you've been sitting here to read books. I can tolerate you for a day or two, but you can't read books on my way to and from get off work every time."
It seems that the young woman and Carlos are old acquaintances, at least she is not lonely on the way to work.
The young woman's quarrel attracted a group of people.
A strong man kindly asked, "Madam, do you need help?"
"Yes, sir, this man sits here all day and night without doing anything, he can't do this!"
When the young woman saw someone coming, she felt that her waist was even straighter.
"Why can't I do this? Sir, you judge me. I read my books, and she walks her way. We have nothing to do with each other."
Carlos sat on the bench without getting up, and his tone did not fluctuate much. He thought the young woman had been making excuses.
"Yes, ma'am, what's wrong with him sitting here?"
The man who came to help him still didn't understand the situation.
He just felt that a man and a woman quarreled here, and it seemed that there were more problems for men.
"Oh my god, don't you know that we are busy rushing around for life every day, while you sit here leisurely, isn't this a harm to us?"
The young woman finally told her reasons for being sad.
This is entirely caused by contrasting psychology.
"You can also choose not to go to work. Just like me, sit here and read books, so you won't think so."
Carlos felt it was necessary to enlighten the crazy young woman in front of him.
"Will you support me if you don't go to work?" The young woman's eyes were very resentful.
"That won't work. I've tried my best to support myself." Carlos wouldn't be fooled.
"Madam, it seems he didn't do anything to be sorry for you."
The crowd of onlookers was a little more, but the men who were helping each other had not yet caught the young woman's focus.
"Listen to me, I pass by this park every morning, and he is here to read," the young woman pointed at Carlos. "Every evening, I pass by here again, and he is still here, and many days have passed, and he appears on my must-pass road day after day."
The young woman turned to the strong man again, "Can you understand? I didn't have time to have breakfast in the morning and rushed to work, but he was leisurely looking at books and eating biscuits. At night, I had to hurry back to cook for my family, and he was still sitting here leisurely, which made me feel unfair. Why did I have to work so hard?"
The man who was helping him nodded and nodded, as if he agreed with the young woman's point of view.
"Also, look at him, dressed properly and had a neat face, and looked like a well-educated man. He was not a homeless man. I hate his eyes the most. His eyes were so peaceful, as if he was despising all living beings. It was as if we were so busy, and it was also as if he was enjoying such leisurely time."
The young woman's accusation aroused the empathy of the onlookers, who were all white-collar workers who had just returned from get off work.
"Sir, why don't you find a job?"
The man who was singing turned to Carlos.
"Why should I find a job?" Carlos asked, "It is my right not to work."
"No, you have to find a job. Your behavior has affected those of us diligent and hardworking people who work hard every day." The helping man obviously understood the young woman's difficulties.
"Yes, you have to find a job!" Someone joined the team that accused Carlos, and they understood the young woman's mood. "I have also paid attention to you for many days, and you really shouldn't have appeared here."
"I think, I have the right to sit here, right?" Carlos didn't want to give up his right to pass the time here every day. "You can think I don't exist."
"How can we think you don't exist? You are so annoying. Every day I see you, I doubt my life. What is the purpose of me being so busy every day?"
The initiator, the angry young woman, became more and more excited. She really didn't want to bear it today because she had just been scolded by her boss in the company she came to.
While walking, she recalled her mistakes in her work and her boss's accusation tone, but she met Carlos again, and encountered Carlos' peaceful eyes, which made her burst.
