“Thanks man! You are real good too. The drum is really fabulous!”
“You two are so cute!”Corina兴奋的说。
“Allen you are a real good singer although I don’t understand what you sing.”Corina显得很兴奋。
Corina教大家一首简单的英文歌叫“You are my sunshine”。大家唱,我俩伴奏,我俩成了乐队。从这之后我们班下午于是多了一门课,音乐课。
我在这边的生活很平淡,基本上是三点一线,渐渐的开始有些无聊了。在街上闲逛的时候发现了一个叫“SAQ”的酒商店,里面全是酒,各种各样的洋酒,brandy,whisky, vodka,还有葡萄酒。有一瓶样子很特别,上边写着“Napoleon brandy”,拿破仑白兰地,应该是这里最便宜的,10块钱,我买了一瓶。带回192号,起初就想尝尝是啥味道的,没想到喝了两口收不住了,呼呼呼喝了大半瓶,酒很烈,跟白酒味道差不多,酒劲上来了,开始天旋地转,我打开一首伍佰的“白鸽”,听着听着忽然发现这首歌唱的就是我,我就是那只白鸽,最后尾声的键盘solo飘逸而深邃,我的心像琴弦一样被它拨动着,我发现我的心振动的频率波长和这首歌是相同的,尾声solo带动了我心的共振,我完全沉浸在里面了,我觉得我就是那只鸽子,在灰色的永无止境的天空上飞呀,飞呀,没有目的地。鼻子一酸,眼泪掉下来了,便再也收不住,大声的抽泣起来。哭过心中舒服了很多,这也是一种发泄。
酒醒了一些,我晃晃悠悠走出192号,沿着街往前走。路口有6、7个白人围坐在一个小圆桌旁抽烟,闲聊,我晃晃悠悠的朝他们走过去。一个站着的瘦高个发现了我,冲我点了一下头,我冲他挥了挥手,“Hey my friend!”
“Hey!”
“U want a cigarette?”
“Sure.”
我从兜里掏出盒中华,抽出一支递给他,他接过去点上,看了看我手中的烟盒。
“Chinese cigarette huh?”
“Yeah. This is the best in China.”
“Best huh? How much?”
我换算了一下,感觉脑袋很卡,不太好用,没算清楚,“Around 10 dollar one box.”
“10 dollar!That’s so expensive.”
“Yeah. Like I said, it’s the best.”
“Hey guys, this brother bring us the best smoke in china. 10 dollar one box!”他朝他的伙伴们招呼着,大家于是停止聊天,看着我,我于是发了一圈。
他们很高兴,招呼我坐下。我也点上支烟,一群老外和我一起抽中华,我觉得挺有意思,我问旁边一哥们“How’s that?”
“How’s what?”
“The cigarette.”
“It’s just cigarette. What’s the difference.”
站着的瘦子问我“So you Chinese huh?”
“Right.”
“How long you been here?”
“less than 3 months.”
“That short?”他挺惊讶。
“Yeah that short.”
“What’s your name?”
“Allen.”
“OK. No Allen here. Bobby.”
“What?”我没听懂。
“Bobby for here.”才明白过来这哥们又给我起了个名字,昵称吧。
“So what’s your name?”
“Tommy.”
Tommy好像也喝了点酒,晃晃的有点醉。他个子很高,很瘦,棕色头发,满嘴棕色胡茬。
“Bobby, You know? I killed 4 guys by bare hands.”说着晃着他那双细长的手。
我一惊,酒立马醒了一半,碰上杀人犯了?
看到我一愣,他有些笑,继续说“I been in Vietnam. You know? I was once a solider. In the special unit.”
“Special unit huh? That cool huh.”
“Yeah. The battle’s quite tough that I can never forget. One night in an action I lost contact with my teammates. I couldn’t find my way back to the base.”“I hide in the wood. The Vietnam soldiers are all around me. I’m really lost and scared.”
“Then what?”
“I killed 4 Vietnam soldiers without a gunfire.”
他英语不流利,有浓重的法语口音,说不清楚,他就比划,“I killed one stupid asshole like this.”他做出从背后突袭勒勃子的动作,动作很大很夸张,不过看上去很专业,像是特种兵。
三个人被他用同样的方式弄死了,最后一个很tough,挣脱了他,给了他一枪托,并试图鸣枪报警,他一个鲤鱼打挺蹦起来,狠狠地踢了他的裆部,踢倒了他,掰断了他的脖子。
