The male protagonist is a cowardly working family, who dares not pursue the female colleague he likes head-on, and even the meal appointment is forced by the other party to succeed.
In India, the status of women is probably very low, and the girlfriend of the male protagonist turned out to be an arranged marriage. After dating him for two months, I want to go back to my hometown to get married. The male protagonist wants to discuss marriage with the female protagonist, but because he has no savings, he cannot afford the daily expenses of the two, and even the place to live together is a problem. In order to retain the female lead, the male lead asked for a house from an intermediary, but the house was at least 2w a month, and the male lead had only 1w5 left. When he was in despair, a young man in Lu Yu told him that there was a place where he could stay cheaply, and the male protagonist went with him.
The place the young man was talking about was an unfinished building with a height of more than 30 stories. The house was renovated and had a TV, bed and refrigerator. But for some reason it has never been sold or rented out. The young man took the male protagonist to a house on the 35th floor. The male protagonist only checked the electricity, but did not check the water, so he took the room key with the young young man to confirm the check-in. The male protagonist returned to the room he shared with his friend to pack up his things, and said goodbye to his roommate when he was about to go out. At that time, the other two young people were watching a wild survival program. In the program, a wild survival expert similar to Pei Ye was saying a sentence: "Adventure is never outside, but inside you." Perhaps the male protagonist had his own thoughts on this sentence on the way to the new apartment.
Three young people, living in a corner of the city, their favorite movie is survival in the wild, maybe in their hearts, they also want to have a big adventure. But they can't because they are afraid to step out of their comfort zone. Can only be in the comfort zone, envious of other people's adventures.
The male protagonist arrived at the newly rented apartment, simply tidied up, and fell asleep. The next day, I opened my eyes and found that the phone was not fully charged. It turned out that the socket was not working properly. So I reset my phone to charge it. When I washed my face, I found that there was not a drop of water. All I can use is a large bottle of mineral water that I bought last night. So he washed his face with half a bottle of mineral water and set off in a hurry. When he got to the elevator, he found that he forgot to bring his mobile phone, so he went back to the room to get the mobile phone, but when he opened the door, he did not pull out the key. When he was about to go out, a gust of wind came, and he closed the door, the key was outside, and the man was inside. In this way, the male protagonist was locked in a small room on the 35th floor of a building that had been uninhabited for more than two years. What I want to complain here is that the design of the Indian door is too metaphysical, and the door can't be opened from the inside without the key?
In any case, the adventure story belonging to the male protagonist has just begun.
Let me ask, in today's society, most people should have had a similar experience of being locked in a space in a certain city. Some people were even locked in a crevice in an elevator that no one went to for a year because they took the wrong way and died. I read a news two days ago, a woman drank some wine, and she ran into someone else's cold storage and froze to death. Human society, the reinforced forest, is also full of traps everywhere.
Just like our male protagonist, he never dreamed of being trapped in the house he just rented. No food (haven't had time to buy it yet), no water, no electricity, no neighbors. The doorman downstairs is deaf, and he lives so high that no one can hear him no matter how loud he makes. He is thus cut off from modern society.
How can such an environment make people desperate? Maybe 20% of the people are already desperate at this time. But the male protagonist still has a silver lining in his heart. He thought of the words of the wilderness survival expert: "Adventures are never outside, but inside." When faced with a desperate situation, he finally realized something. So he made the following attempts:
First, throwing things downstairs to attract attention. Failed because the doorman was deaf. There is a yard downstairs, because it has been uninhabited for a long time, so basically no one passes by.
Second, write a distress signal on a piece of paper, throw it out, and even write a blood book. The police picked it up and threw it away. An aunt found it, came to check it, and was dismissed by the guard saying that no one had lived in it for two years. Although she went upstairs a few floors during the period, but there is not a single ghost in this uninhabited building, I think, most of the aunt will think that it is a prank by some troublemaker.
Third, set fires on balconies. In the end, I almost cremated myself, and failed!
In this way, I think about 80% of people will wait to die in despair after experiencing all kinds of unsuccessful calls for help. At this time, the male protagonist has almost stepped into the 80% of the crowd. He had run out of ammunition and food, and even drank his own urine.
When he was sitting on the ground waiting to die, he suddenly remembered what the survival expert said in the wild survival program he watched earlier, "When you are trapped in a desperate situation, even in a small room, what can you eat to save your life?" It's cockroaches, they can even survive for a month without eating or drinking." The male protagonist really went to look for Xiaoqiang. After he found a Xiaoqiang and knocked it out, he also fell down. He didn't eat Xiaoqiang, he just stared at Xiaoqiang. At this time, Xiaoqiang was facing the sky at all corners. He might pretend to be dead for a while, but he couldn't keep it any longer, so he turned over and took two steps to try to get away. Maybe the injury was too serious, and he stopped after taking two steps. I didn't even realize that I had become a role model for the male protagonist to survive!
Yes, the male protagonist stood up. After seeing that Xiaoqiang was still full of fighting spirit to survive, the male protagonist stood up. When he walked to the balcony, he found that it was raining outside. God helps those who help themselves, maybe the same proverb is also circulated abroad, which is used by the director.
The male protagonist used the only tools in the room to bring the rain in and took a shower. The next day, the male protagonist seemed to be a different person, full of fighting spirit, like a hero who could slaughter death. Probably made a slingshot out of underwear (guess, only the elastic in the underwear), and caught a pigeon that flew in from the balcony to rest. But when he faced the pigeons, he was in trouble because he couldn't eat chicken. The Indian caste system stipulates that senior castes cannot eat meat, fish and eggs. It seems that the surname of the male protagonist still belongs to the upper caste.
At this time, the male protagonist recalled that the conversation he had with his girlfriend went like this:
Male protagonist: I can't eat chicken, there will be retribution for eating meat.
Hostess: Do you mean I will get retribution for eating chicken?
Male protagonist: No, you are a good girl, you can balance yourself by eating meat.
Hostess: You are a bad man, you can balance yourself by not eating meat.
Nothing about the caste system was mentioned. I guess, maybe the male protagonist is just a pure vegetarian.
After all, faith belongs to faith, and the stomach must be filled first.
The male protagonist still roasted the pigeon, but when he ate it, he was secretly bitten by a mouse. He caught the mouse and locked it in a cage as a companion. His beliefs didn't allow him to kill casually, and maybe he was too lonely, and the mouse became his only audience.
When he shot the second pigeon, he seemed to be able to do it with ease. Maybe it wasn't the second pigeon, maybe it was the third, maybe the fourth. In the face of survival, everything is nothing, everything can be abandoned.
After eating and drinking, he finally cleared his mind. Like a soldier, together with his mouse comrades, he began to formulate a detailed "battle plan":
first, to sort out the clues. The only way out is the balcony. I observed the upper and lower floors with a reflector and determined the route.
Second, find a breakthrough point. The breakthrough point is the iron railings of the balcony, as long as you break one, you can go out and climb down along the railings.
Third, inventory resources. Finding the best tools in very limited resources.
There was a fan in the room, he removed it, and started grinding the steel pipe with the thickness of the thumb of the balcony with the fan blade. I don't know how many days of grinding, I was so tired, and fell down again. He saw the cockroach again, all fours in the sky, and it was probably dead. He may be thinking: "Xiaoqiang is dead, I'm still alive, my life is even harder". So, he got up again, walked to the balcony, and started kicking the steel pipe with his feet. God helped the self-help person, of course he broke it. Before moving on, he released the little mouse.
He began to climb down the steel pipe from the balcony. Although the process was thrilling, it was far less thrilling than being trapped in a room and waiting to die. He is finally free.
While he was lying in the hospital on an infusion, his girlfriend showed up, but he had a wedding ring on her ring finger. Although he has broken through himself, he cannot break through the world.
After recovering, I found a job again, and I ate alone, and I didn't shy away from eating meat. I even ordered hamburgers. There are still wild survival programs on TV, and the survival expert is still saying this sentence: "When you stare at the abyss, the abyss is staring at you. But what I want to tell you is that the abyss is a weak scum. I can't help but face it." The male protagonist's expression did not change. In the end, the male protagonist returned to a room in the building. The room was obviously not the one he had lived in before, and the whole room was clean. When he looked at the balcony, he found that the steel pipe there was broken, the steel pipe was clean, and there was no trace of fire. Maybe there is another story of rebirth from desperation behind this.
In fact, life is an adventure. As the wilderness survival expert said, the adventure is not outside, but inside you. No matter what trap you fall into, as long as you break through your inner shackles, there is hope for survival.
