A week later, the middle-aged man's detention period was over.
When he left, he patted Zhang Yang's shoulder and said, "Young man, if it doesn't work out, go to the hospital for a check-up. If you're sick, you need to get treated early! Ah, after being hit by two wine bottles, how did your brain get hurt?"
Zhang Yang could only smile wryly and shake his head, without arguing, nor was he able to argue.
It's no wonder he was taken for a mental patient, after seeing the underwear of the guard, he turned his head and saw other people in the detention room, under that uncoordinated feeling, he could still vaguely see through other people's outer clothes, but if he covered his uncoordinated left eye, he could even see clearly the lump of flesh inside the underwear!
To determine whether he had X-ray vision, Zhang Yang waited until everyone was asleep and then went to lift their blankets to peek at their underwear. As expected, when discovered, it caused a stir. Being treated as mentally ill was not bad enough, without being considered perverted, he was taught a lesson by the tall and powerful person who had been in fights before.
It's fortunate that all this is finally over!
Zhang Yang finally confirmed that he had developed X-ray vision, but what made him a bit depressed was that this X-ray vision only lasted for over ten minutes. Once the cool air dissipated, he returned to normal! Moreover, that cool air was very unstable, sometimes entering his left eye and sometimes entering his right eye. In short, once that cool air came, his dizziness followed suit.
No way, once his left and right eyes are out of sync, his entire feeling becomes out of sync too!
In the following days, Zhang Yang lived in a daze, having gained X-ray vision, what could he do?
Buying lottery tickets? Digging for treasure? Gambling on stones? Peeping at beautiful women?
It's like suddenly winning 5 million and becoming a nouveau riche, being in a daze and having no idea how time has passed!
The time for detention had finally come to an end, and Zhang Yang walked out of the detention center with a light and quick pace.
Breathing in the fresh air, gazing at the vast sky, tears almost fell from my eyes.
Those who have never lost their freedom can hardly imagine how hard it is to spend days in there!
Zhang Yang swore: I will never come in here again, not even for the rest of my life!
Although everyday life is a bit hard, I can do whatever I want! I can eat whenever I want to eat and sleep whenever I want to sleep. Never have I experienced anything like this before, where even going to the toilet requires reporting - what kind of life is this?!
A fierce glint flashed in Zhang Yang's eyes, and he said to the king who brought me here: "You son of a bitch, when I find you, I'll make you taste something a hundred times more ruthless than this. You think a detention center is scary? I'll send you straight to prison!"
After taking several buses back to his own neighborhood, Zhang Yang didn't even go home. He found a bathhouse and took a refreshing shower. After coming out of the bathtub, he went to a small store and used the last over 200 yuan to buy a set of clothes. It wasn't superstition, but Zhang Yang's original clothes were covered in bloodstains and couldn't be worn anymore.
What infuriated him even more was that he had been detained for fifteen days, yet not a single person came to see him. Those colleagues who had drunk with him on the same day all vanished into thin air!
As soon as I entered the courtyard, the landlady came out and asked: "Zhang Yang, where have you been? You haven't come back for half a month! At the end of the month, you still need to pay rent! Don't say I'm not being considerate, if you don't have money to pay by then, just move out, I rely on this little rent to make a living!"
"Alright! Don't worry, I won't shortchange you!"
"Oh no, what's wrong with your face? You're hurt! We're all honest people here. If you've been fighting, I won't rent the house to you!" said the landlady.
"I didn't get into a fight! I tripped while delivering goods and scratched my face, it's all better now!"
Helplessly shaking her head, she opened the door and returned to her own doghouse! This landlady is always observing what others are doing all day long, I really don't know how her curiosity can be so heavy!
As for this scar, Zhang Yang was also very surprised. It wasn't until more than a week later that he discovered an extra scar on his face. How did it get there? The beer bottle had clearly hit him on the head, but somehow his face ended up with an extra scar!
And this scar healed very quickly, by the time Zhang Yang noticed it, it had already become a faint mark.
It's still not clear even if it's closer!
Originally spotless face, suddenly had a scar, it can be imagined how depressed Zhang Yang was. Fortunately, this scar is getting fainter and fainter, I believe it will disappear completely in just a few days.
What Zhang Yang didn't notice was that after getting this scar, his originally ordinary face suddenly underwent some kind of change, and had a strange aura. This aura didn't disappear with the disappearance of the scar. The Zhang Yang who possessed this aura was no longer the boy from before who could be placed in a crowd without any distinguishing features.
This can also be considered as a blessing in disguise!
This is a dilapidated house in the Hedong District of Tianjin City, which has not been demolished. The place where Zhang Yang rents is left by an old lady from the older generation. The small courtyard is not big, with several rooms added on top, and seven households live here! It's like the traditional Beijing quadrangle courtyards, but unlike those in TV shows, there are no family conflicts or disputes, everyone minds their own business and doesn't bother each other.
Zhang Yang rented the smallest room, with an area of just over 10 square meters. There was no kitchen, only a bed and a few pieces of luggage. There were no other valuable items, so it's no wonder that the landlady, an old lady, was worried. If Zhang Yang ran away without saying anything, the things in the room wouldn't even be enough to cover the rent.
Although the monthly rent is only 300 yuan.
He lay down on his own wooden bed, listening to the familiar creaking sound, and let out a long sigh. Indeed, no place was better than one's own home! As for work, Zhang Yang had already mentally prepared himself. He would be absent from work for half a month, and that stingy boss of his wouldn't possibly wait for him?
It's estimated that by the second day after he was taken away, the boss had already found a new employee.
This society lacks everything except people! And it especially doesn't lack ordinary workers!
Zhang Yang helplessly sighed! However, Zhang Yang still decided to go to the company tomorrow, not for those unscrupulous guys, but to get his deposit back. After all, he had paid a deposit of 1,000 yuan for this express delivery job!
Lying bored for a while, Zhang Yang's heart moved, and that cool air surged into his left eye once again.
After several days of exploration, Zhang Yang has determined that this cool air is alternately appearing on the left and right sides. For example, on the first day, his left eye can see through, and on the second day, it's his right eye! Zhang Yang can now simply control the time when this cool air appears.
But the duration of X-ray vision remains unchanged, still more than ten minutes, or exactly fifteen minutes! Nor does he know what this ability is all about, it's precisely irreplaceable, and exceeding fifteen minutes, no matter how hard he tries, there's no effect!
Today's special ability has not been used yet, Zhang Yang is a bit worried about his own special ability, and whether it will be useless once he leaves the detention room. He endured all the way, those beautifully dressed women, he didn't use his special ability to look at them, just in case he couldn't take the blow.
A cool air surged up, Zhang Yang stretched out his hand to cover his right eye. When there was no one around, he wanted to try it carefully! Sure enough, the wall disappeared, and Zhang Yang clearly saw the TV in the next room!
Oh yeah! He shouted excitedly!
His superpower hadn't disappeared after all; he really had gained X-ray vision. Upon thinking of this, Zhang Yang couldn't control himself anymore and burst out laughing!
He seems to see a good life waving at him!
After a long time, Zhang Yang's excited heart finally calmed down. He couldn't help but look at the wall again. It was real, really real! He wasn't dreaming!
He closed his left eye and then opened it, and Zhang Yang was like a child who had just bought a new toy, tirelessly testing it. Unintentionally, Zhang Yang's left eye caught sight of the ground, and suddenly a golden light flashed on the ground, piercing his eyes!
Zhang Yang hastily closed his eyes, calmed down for a moment, and then looked down at the ground again. What was that thing just now? It was shining with a golden light!
Zhang Yang couldn't hold back his curiosity and looked down at the ground with force.
He soon found the spot where the light had appeared earlier, and to his surprise, it was more than a meter underground, where a wooden box was buried! Zhang Yang used his X-ray vision to look through again, and sure enough, the golden light reappeared. This time, Zhang Yang didn't close his eyes, and his breathing suddenly became rapid!
Gold bars! It's actually gold bars! That small box is packed with gold bars!
Zhang Yang could no longer stand and sat down on the bed.
His eyes were filled with golden flowers, and he muttered to himself: "I've become rich, I've become rich!"
How much are those gold bars worth? Zhang Yang's mouth was agape, his mind a jumbled mess!
Take it out, take it out, all mine, mine!
Zhang Yang paced back and forth on the ground, staring at the concrete floor. He was so eager to grab a hoe and dig up the floor right now to take out that box of gold. Fortunately, he still had some calmness left in him, knowing that this was his rented house, and if he made a move, before he even started digging, he would probably be reported by the landlady and caught by the police!
Thinking of a detention center without freedom, Zhang Yang's heart suddenly calmed down!
Calm down, must calm down!
Zhang Yang repeatedly told himself until his mood completely calmed down, Zhang Yang let out a bitter laugh!
Indeed, wealth moves people's hearts. I only saw the gold for myself and forgot that this place doesn't belong to me. If there wasn't a cement floor, I could secretly dig up the soil and open it up quietly. But with the cement floor, no matter how careful I am, I couldn't avoid startling others!
It's up to you to explain it yourself!
Even if you dig up gold, it will be taken away by the landlady!
Is it just an empty joy?
Zhang Yang suddenly hated this X-ray eye, when he didn't see the box of gold, he could still lie down on the bed and sleep peacefully. Now it's good, even sitting is unbearable!
Zhang Yang gritted his teeth and went to the company, it's more annoying to stay here!
It's called a company, but it's actually just a small distribution center. With online shopping becoming increasingly popular, various logistics companies have emerged like mushrooms after the rain. The logistics company where Zhang Yang works has a very loud name, Wantong Logistics.
Zhang Yang's daily work is to collect and deliver goods, riding a motorcycle around the city. After working hard for a month, he earns only 1,500 yuan in salary. For this job with no prospects, Zhang Yang also paid a deposit of 1,000 yuan.
Just thinking about those university graduates who come out and sit in an office, earning a salary of several thousand yuan as white-collar workers, makes my heart feel extremely unbalanced. Isn't it just because they have a college degree? What they can do, I can also do, so why are their salaries so high?! We, who work hard every day, can barely make ends meet!
