MUJI's fingertips were slightly stiff, but she felt cold all over. She clenched her hands again and again. The picture she had accidentally seen had been sunk in the bottom of her heart, but at this moment she climbed into her heart again and appeared in a trance in front of her eyes.

After getting drunk, the middle-aged man, with a strong vomit of alcohol, smashed his head against the wall like crazy, and blood splashed on the wall.

When she was a child, she secretly came to her brother and brought a lot of sugar, because she thought that if she ate too much sugar, it would always be sweeter.

I just didn't expect,

Muping unexpectedly came back at that time. When Muping was drunk, he beat whoever he saw. At that time, the teenager hid her in the cabinet, closed the cabinet door tightly, put a sugar in her palm, tore open the sugar paper for her, and fed her one in her mouth. He asked her to cover her ears. He said, Mumu is obedient. Shall we play hide and seek, waiting for me to find you.

He also said that no matter what sound you hear, don't come out.

At that time

Jing Bai seems to be only eight or nine years old.

Still a child.

MUJI was younger than Jingbai. At that age, she didn't understand anything. She just vaguely felt that Jingbai's father was not good to her brother until she hid in the cabinet and saw such a violent and cruel scene through a gap.

In the closed and cramped cabinet, the sugar in your mouth and the sugar in your hand become the only sweet.

The man's vulgar swearing and cruel impact echoed in the room.

The man never called a word from beginning to end.

She saw blood all over her eyes.

Later,

Muping left.

The room was quiet for a long time.

She stayed quietly in the cabinet, her frightened face was white, at a loss and at a loss, but she had been waiting for someone to open the cabinet door.

When the man opened the cabinet door.

She saw the light.

The teenager's injury had been covered by him. Muji didn't see it. He took her out.

He was very calm and was still coaxing her: "don't be afraid, I'll take you home."

He said.

"Don't come to me later."

He lives in decay. He doesn't want to make people as unbearable as him. He refuses all tenderness. He carries all alone.

Later,

That scene, those words.

MUJI has remembered for many years.

People in many moments will be eager to grow up, and Muji is suddenly felt at that moment.

Why can't it be bigger.

Why not leave.

Later,

They have all grown up.

The teenager who fed her sugar when she was a child,

Finally left the swamp.

To his future.

The sun was supposed to be a teenager, but for no reason, he sank and floated in the dirty and unbearable mud for more than ten years.

He became more and more lonely and unsociable. He learned to smoke and fight. He was just as good and angular, but he was... Such a gentle person.

MUJI doesn't know,

How did that man survive in countless days and nights, repeating his rotten life and in the inevitable despair.

All she knows is.

There is such a person.

After going through the abyss, he will gently pass sugar to others.

She is more eager than anyone,

Let the boy go straight ahead.

Go in the direction of light.

Don't stop,

Don't look back.

must.

c'mon.

"Mu Mu? Mu mu?" Shi Nian shouted a lot, but mu Ji was stunned all the time.

She was worried and frowned, "what's the matter?"

MUJI reluctantly regained consciousness and pulled himself out of his memory. After hearing such a news without warning, he was black and cold.

She's scared.

She was afraid that the man took half his life to come out and would be dragged back again.

"I'm all right..." Muji's face was slightly white. Cold anger and physiological nausea swept through every spiritual end. Her voice was a little hoarse. She clenched her fingers and said calmly, "next time Muping asks again, mom, tell him that I know he's in Jiangcheng."

Jiangcheng.

It's a long distance from here.

Shi Nian nodded and said softly. He was really worried about the girl's state. "I'll give you a cup of milk. Don't think too much about Mumu. It's all over."

MUJI was speechless.

Is it really over.

Maybe it's over for each of them.

Except for that man.

Fourteen years of life, how can you forget, even if you come out, it will become a lifelong shadow.

MUJI returned to the room. The light was bright and warm. It was like home. Her mother cared about her very much. Her father was still at work. She didn't know where the youth would be and what to experience at this moment.

What happened tonight disturbed Muji's mind.

Muping is coming.

Muping is in this city.

Will they meet.

What Muping will do.

What should Jingbai do.

Countless questions filled my mind, even the blood was cold.

She was stunned and hesitated for a long time.

Still think about it,

Jing Bai has the right to know.

The phone number was repeatedly entered on the mobile phone countless times, and finally dialed.

There was a moment of silence.

The man's linglie slightly dumb voice came over the phone, just like in those days.

"Mu Mu."

"It's me." Mu Ji's fingertips clasped his cell phone, some white, "brother, your voice..."

"It's all right." the young man leaned on the bed in the basement, with his long legs there. The gray light disappeared half of his face, and said calmly, "just smoke too much."

"Ah." after being quiet for a long time, Muji said slowly, "Muping... Coming."

There was no sound across the phone, dead silence.

The words that poured into the throat were a little astringent and considered word by word: "he came and asked where you are. But brother, don't worry, I won't tell him."

The night in the old city is quiet, and the basement is closed and dark.

After hearing that sentence, the young man didn't respond at all. He didn't even tremble his eyelashes. He just sat there for a long time, like a pale and silent sculpture. For a long time, he opened his mouth with no waves and waves, as if he had heard a plain sentence.

"I see."

"This place is so big that you can't meet it." Muji said seriously: "I lied to him that he would go in Jiangcheng."

"Thank you."

"It's all right." Mu Ji hesitated, "brother, are you... All right recently?"

Left there.

A new family.

Jing Wei is also Jing Bai's biological mother. Her stepfather won't be embarrassed for the sake of dignity. It's said that the other party has a child. Even if she can't make friends between her peers, there won't be any contradiction.

It shouldn't be that bad.

then,

She seemed to hear the other party's light smile and understatement. He said, "it's good."

When Muji heard this sentence, he was a little relieved, but he didn't know why. After hanging up the phone, he began to feel uneasy and couldn't sleep.

The alternating confusion in my mind was the night many years ago when the teenager was hit against the wall according to his first life, and today many years later, the man smiled and told her that it was good.
