After taking a sip of whiskey without water, I felt a burning sensation deep in my throat. He hadn't had a drink for a long time, and this bottle of whiskey was given to her by a real friend at some point. "The bar where they said they worked part-time closed down, so everyone shared all the remaining alcohol. Although I don't like whiskey very much, it's good to have a little bit once in a while." "It would be nice if it was red wine," she said with a smile. The bottle of whiskey was put in the cabinet along with the cup noodles.Because there were no ice cubes in the refrigerator, I had no choice but to drink it dry.

It looks like a high-end wine, but it doesn't feel the slightest deliciousness when it enters the throat.What's more, he didn't drink it for tasting, and he didn't know whether wine was good or bad.He drank, just to get drunk. Sitting on a dining chair, holding a wine glass filled with amber liquid, he cast his eyes on the adjacent Japanese-style room. Yuma was lying down, wearing a yellow long-sleeved sweater.It was a dress she had worn since they started living together, and although it looked rather worn, she seemed to like it. Youzhen closed her eyes and remained motionless.Not moving at all.The originally healthy pink lips were almost gray, and her white and slender hands would never caress his chest again, and the waist that had accepted his passionate feelings would never twist again.

He thought: I have lost everything.Before that, he had lost many, many and various things, and the reason why he can survive until today is because he firmly believes that his most precious treasure is still in his hands.This treasure is naturally Youzhen.As long as she is by his side, he will not feel too hopeless about his life. However, he lost even this her after all.When he thought of his future self, he felt dark before his eyes.No, he didn't even dare to think about the future. The moment the whiskey ran down his throat, he hiccupped.The whiskey in his mouth spurted out and wet his knees.

He thought to himself, how did he end up in such a state?He shouldn't have embarked on such a path in life.He had believed that he could live a better, hopeful life.He has always believed that he is working tirelessly for this goal. I don't know which tooth is not bitten in the gear of life.Which tooth is it? — Another hiccup came up. He put down his glass, stood up and walked to the table with unsteady steps. I know it, he thought.He knows exactly when and where he took this fork in the road. On the front wall, there is a copy of the content of a weekly magazine with a thumbtack. The title reads "A Genius Scientist Exists Behind the Solving of Strange Cases". In the case of the phenomenon, he sought help from a physicist at a certain university, and finally reported it with great success.Regarding this scholar, although the report only says "Associate Professor Y of University T", he is very clear about who this person is.

He picked up the utility knife on the table, pushed out a few centimeters long blade, and cut the copy of the weekly magazine obliquely.
