Chapter 15

# 七楼 · 第十五天

The Seventh Floor, Episode 15: Half a Character

昨天晚上，七楼的快递上第一次有了电话号码。乔安给这个号码打了电话，一个年轻女人只说了一句“你打错了”，就再也不接了。这时候，宁宁在快递单上看见了一个很小的字。

那个字就在电话号码下面。它的左边还在，右边已经不见了。

罗师傅看了看，说：“太小了，我看不清楚。”

宁宁拿着箱子走到灯下面，看了很久。他什么也不说，像电视里的警察一样。

过了一会儿，他跑到那张旧桌子旁边，打开了最下面的抽屉。

她问：“你要找什么？”

“这个字，我在哪儿见过。我知道了，就在这里面！”

他拿出那个旧本子。本子已经有一点儿黄了，上面写着几个大字：“邹家小商店”。

宁宁把本子放在箱子旁边。“你们看第一个字。它的左边和箱子上的那一半，是不是一样？”

她小心地看了又看。真的一样。

她慢慢地说：“这是‘邹’字。”

宁宁大声说：“邹奶奶的邹！也是邹爷爷的邹！”

大家一下子安静了。她的心又跳得很快。

她说：“寄这些快递的人姓邹，就在广州。”

罗师傅想了想：“我在这个小区送了这么多年快递，姓邹的只有邹爷爷一家。”

宁宁说：“我又说对了！你得再给我买一个面包。”

她笑了：“好，小警察，找到这个人再说吧。”

可是她想到了邹爷爷，心里有一点儿难过。刚才在七楼，她问他家里有没有人在广州。他很久没说话，最后只说了两个字：“没有。”

他为什么不告诉她？

就在这时候，有人敲门，三下，很慢。

宁宁跑过去打开了门。门口站着邹爷爷。

他没有进来，眼睛一直看着桌子上的箱子。过了很久，他才小声问：“快递单上，写的是谁的名字？”
