Chapter 2489： Panic strikes

Rustle, rustle.

Walking on the ground among the dark yellow dead leaves, the red, yellow and green in the line of sight are interlaced and spread out. The refreshing and icy air is mixed with the fragrance of the soil and the smell of trees. The pores can not help but open, and he raises his head. You can see the mottled blue sky appearing in front of you, as if you can touch it by just raising your hand.

Matthew, whose mood calmed down a bit, returned to quiet again. Although the anger had erupted, his inner loss and loss were still restless. An indescribable and inexpressible unknown was making his heart beat irregularly, even if he forced himself. Concentrated, but still uncontrollably absent-minded.

Rustle, rustle.

Matthew looked down at the dead leaves under his feet, and then just lost his mind. His thoughts can't help but he can't help but have no purpose or direction. It's just some messy thoughts that cannot capture the origin and clues, just like sesame seeds scattered on the ground, densely packed Unable to start, surging disturbingly one after another.

"Tatata."

There was a sound in his ears, and Matthew raised his head, and then he saw Lan Li who was running at full speed-running? why? Where to go?

"Wow!"

In the next second, Lan Li jumped up and rushed to the floor in a swooping posture, sliding like sand or grass. The thick fallen leaves drove Lan Li's body forward. When he rushed, the clattering sound reverberated for a long time in the secluded forest.

But it didn’t last too long. I was forced to stop because I touched the ground. My clothes and pants were covered with dirt, and the neat appearance was completely disrupted. It looked like a child who hadn’t grown up. Matthew was just speechless for a while and couldn't help rolling his eyes.

"Hey, are you going to join me?" Lan Li turned over and lay on the ground in a big font, as if he opened his arms to embrace the forest and sky.

Matthew did not respond.

Lan Li didn't care either, "Horo!"

The shouting echoed in the forest, and then there was a fluttering sound, as if the bird was startled and flew away.

"You are destroying the tranquility here." Matthew couldn't help but complain.

"Haha." Lan Li laughed happily, and then issued a "hush" instruction to let the noise slowly settle down, and then he could hear the natural sound.

Matthew stood there hesitated for a moment, and finally lay down, not far away.

At the beginning, his movements were somewhat restrained. The attire of suits and leather shoes was really not suitable for getting close to nature, but slowly, the tight muscles were relieved, and those trivial sounds could be caught in his ears: the sound of the wind blowing on the treetops. , Crickets jump through the grass, birds spread their wings... a little, a little, the fine sound seems to be able to outline the footsteps of nature, as if children are really playing and chasing, those crisp laughs make the tight nerves can not help but relax Come down.

Opening his eyes, Matthew saw the sky above his head. The blue sky was quietly revealing his face among the mottled treetops, and occasionally he could catch traces of a few clouds, drifting leisurely. It seemed that it was just a blink of an eye, and it changed into a different appearance.

Inexplicably, the mood just calmed down.

"Hite is in the freezer now."

Without warning, Matthew said aloud, and then he could hear Lan Li’s puzzled voice, "Huh?" As if he didn’t understand what this sentence meant, Matthew went on to explain, "Haite’s hometown is In Glasgow, he had always hoped to be able to return to his hometown, but his father was unwilling to pay the related expenses. Henry and Hayter’s children had a dispute, and both parties were not satisfied with the other's response.

"I made a request for help, and I will pay for all the expenses, but Haite’s children refused my help." At this point, Matthew paused slightly. Obviously, he was rejected, which made Matthew a little bit injured. He thought his relationship with Haite was special, but when things came to an end, he was still classified under the label of "The Dunlops", and his help was also regarded as a "compassionate charity."

"So, Hite is now lying in the freezer. I don't know how they are going to solve the problem, but now, whether the funeral should be held in London or return to Glasgow, they still have not been able to conclude. Obviously, London is a realistic choice, and Glasgow is the ideal choice. Like all ordinary people, they refuse to acknowledge reality and refuse to let go of pride. So that's it."

A few words reveal too much information.

Matthew rejected Henry's request and refused to return to London. There were too many stories behind the seemingly simple decision.

"...Freezer?" Lan Li frowned slightly, and the softly raised ending sound was full of doubt and confusion, "Are they sure this is the best choice?"

"Yes, I know." Matthew nodded in affirmation. "I think this is a stupid choice. I don't want Haight to lie in the freezer."

"It's ridiculous." Lan Li didn't know how to describe his feelings, and the image of a freezer appeared in his mind, and then imagined that Haite was lying in it. This... Isn't this something serial killers do?

Thoughts could not help but start to sprout.

"I remember that summer in Ambleside, did Hite hurt his knee and had some inconvenience in his legs and feet? He rarely participated in our cricket match."

Lan Li just said the beginning, and Matthew's memory began to come alive, and he responded in a low voice, "Well. He said that his knees can smell the breath of winter. This is the wisdom of the body, as if we are passionate about it. Like participating in cricket, he is keen to watch cricket, just like the summer sun."

"Does Haite have any misunderstandings about me?" Lanly asked rhetorically, he didn't like playing cricket at all.

The corners of Matthew's mouth rose slightly. "Haite will say, it's because your acting is so good that he can't see the flaws."

Lan Li pursed the corner of his mouth and nodded lightly, "I can accept such a statement."

The two did not continue to talk, the noise slowly settled down, the sound of nature moved gently in the air, and the sparse and lazy sunlight in the afternoon pierced through the layers of treetops and fell on the fingertips and eyebrows, seeming to be able to catch it in the cold and steep There was a little warmth, but over time, the sassy and bitterness of late autumn rose from the bottom of the ground and drilled into the blood along the pores. Then all the comfort and romance disappeared, and the chills couldn't help but shiver.

"Let's go back." Lan Li stood up first and was about to fall asleep, only to wake up from the cold. Now he finally knows what a tramp feels like.

Matthew also stood up, but didn't say much. Judging from Lanly's performance today, he was skeptical that they would be able to go home now, and his guess... is correct.

They did return to Manhattan, but they still did not go home. First, they headed to a small park in Brooklyn, where countless professional skateboarders gathered. Lan Li forced Matthew to learn to skate, but Matthew was blown up directly. Went to a private dessert workshop for afternoon tea, and did two things before returning home.

First, I went to a high-end French restaurant to have a formal dinner-both of them were not dressed so neatly and were almost kicked out; then went to the supermarket to buy five carts of daily necessities, enough to fill both of them’s refrigerators. It has to be full of dangdang, and this is where you can return.

"...Are you sure you don't need my help?" Lan Li was in Matthew's study, searching for books worth reading.

"Are you sure you can help?" Matthew's voice came from the kitchen, but his calm words were full of questioning complaints.

Lan Li thought about it seriously, "It's fair enough." Anyway, he went to the kitchen, which was probably a disservice. The original simple things became tricky.

At this time, the entire kitchen was piled up with daily necessities. Although the apartment manager was responsible for moving all the items to Matthew's apartment, Matthew still needed to do the tidying part by himself-they don't have their own housekeeper, and the problem is It is that Lanly’s refrigerator is not used at all, and then he needs to go to Indio to participate in the music festival. In other words, everything is stuffed in Matthew’s house.

This……?

Matthew turned around and looked at something like a hill, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, but he was still organized and began to organize it step by step.

"This should be... the first layer of preservation... this should be the bottom layer of preservation... this... um... this should be placed in the frozen layer..."

The sorting maze in the brain is orderly, and even every position on each floor of the refrigerator can be sorted and placed according to a fixed rule, and then Matthew opened the door on the freezer side of the refrigerator. No idea, a bunch of things just like that. Rolled out in a hurry, caught off guard.

How can it be?

Matthew's refrigerator is always neat and orderly, it is absolutely impossible to be so embarrassed-besides Lan Li, who else can harass Matthew's refrigerator so unscrupulously?

Matthew was a little helpless.

Look down at all of which are frozen chicken breasts, and then look at the frozen chicken **** in his hands. Matthew is just speechless and doesn't know what to say.

Although he knows that Lan Li is adjusting his diet and not overeating, he still needs to adjust the nutritional ratio and choice of ingredients reasonably. Chicken breast is undoubtedly one of the important components, but... the entire freezer is already full, and today it is unexpectedly full. Bought so much?

Has it become a habit?

Matthew bent over to pick up the frozen chicken **** and put them in the freezer—because there were still many boxes on the ground, they couldn’t just melt them on the ground. Originally, he was going to wait for them to be put in the freezer and then slowly sort them out, but When he got up, his head slammed into the refrigerator door, and a sharp pain caused Matthew to subconsciously let go of his hands, and all the chicken **** in his arms were scattered on the ground.

pain!

But Matthew still gritted his teeth and resisted the pain. He looked at a loss. He raised his head and looked at the freezer, trying to put the chicken **** in first, temporarily closing the refrigerator door, and tidying up later, but he didn't know how to return. The refrigerator door couldn't be closed no matter what, and there was a sharp pain in my chest.

The mountains swept like a tsunami.
