# 七楼 · 第二十二天

The Seventh Floor, Episode 22: Not Safe

昨天晚上，宁宁的妈妈带着很多邻居上了七楼。大家看见了邹奶奶的旧花盆，看见了那两把椅子，也看见了那五个花盆里的小绿叶。

今天早上，小区里的人一见面就说七楼。

七点，乔安来上班。昨天晚上她睡得很晚，现在还很困。可是快递站门口已经站着好几个邻居了。

三号楼的一个阿姨说：“我在这儿住了三十年，都忘了还有七楼！”

一个男人说：“邹奶奶以前种的花，真是好看。我女儿小时候也常去看花。”

这时候，宁宁骑着自行车来了。他小声说：“对不起，是我妈妈说出去的。”

她笑了：“没关系。大家都喜欢七楼，这是好事。”

八点，门又开了。进来的是小区办公室的董阿姨。她手里拿着一张纸，脸上一点儿笑也没有。

“我们早上去七楼看了，”董阿姨说，“那儿很不安全。旁边什么都没有，孩子上去玩怎么办？昨天晚上风那么大，如果一个花盆被吹到楼下，打到人，怎么办？”

乔安想起了昨天晚上的大风，她的伞一下子就被吹坏了。她不知道怎么回答。

董阿姨把手里的纸放在桌子上。“办公室说了，下个星期天以前，七楼的花盆和椅子都要搬走。那个铁门也要换一把新锁，以后谁都不能上去。”

宁宁大声说：“不行！那是邹奶奶的花！”

“我知道大家都是好心，”董阿姨说，“可是安全最重要。”

乔安看着那张纸，心里很难过。孙女说过，下个月奶奶生日那天，她想回到七楼，看着爷爷说对不起。可是到了那天，七楼可能只有一个关着的铁门了。

就在这时候，门口有人说：“谁要搬她的花盆？”

大家都转过身。门口站着的是邹爷爷，脚上还是那双旧鞋，脸很黑。他看着董阿姨，一个字一个字地说：“七楼的东西，谁也不能动。”
