Ninety-three: Pursue to the end
Sitting in front of the bank steps that had witnessed our beginning, the winter sun was shining warmly on me, and my whole body became lazy, and there was not a single cloud in the sky, and it was a little blue and illusory. In broad daylight, there was no one on the street, so quiet that the atmosphere seemed quite strange.
In the silence I suddenly heard a rustle of footsteps, from far and near, it was the figure of a girl, a figure that was very familiar to me. The navy blue high school uniform seemed a little dazzling in the sunlight, probably because of her head down, and I couldn't see her face clearly.
"Lele?" I shouted tentatively, and the girl raised her head faintly, I finally saw her appearance clearly, but I couldn't believe my eyes at all, it was really Lele!
"Shellfish pigs. Lele's lips moved slightly, and then he sat down next to me. I gazed at the girl's figure in amazement, and the beauty that was still in the past made me involuntarily produce a kind of unattainable illusion, which seemed to be familiar.
"Beizi pig, can you drink with me...... Today I ...... I'm out of love. Lele looked at me with a hint of melancholy in his eyes, and suddenly remembered, isn't this exactly what we started six years ago, but why is it during the day?
"Beizi pig, I'm scared ......" Lele lowered his head again, and his bangs instantly covered most of his face.
"What?" I didn't react, but I suddenly felt an urge to hug Lele into my arms.
"I'm afraid you'll leave me......" Lele didn't look at me, as if he was recalling something to himself.
"No, Lele, I'll never leave you...... Never ......" I stretched out my arms and encircled Lele fiercely, calling the girl's name almost *, but the body in my arms seemed to be a little cold. It was as if I was in an ice vault, so cold that even my fingers began to go numb.
Suddenly, the familiar face in front of me became blurred, and then I saw many different faces: Chu Chu's face, Meizi's face, Huang Xin's face, and Xiao Z's face......
However, I just couldn't see Lele's face clearly, and I tried to keep my eyes open, but it was still blurry.
What's going on here?
Suddenly, Lele shook off my arm and turned to leave.
"Don't ...... Don't leave me......" I cried out to the distant figure, although the body was struggling desperately, but the person seemed to be frozen by something, and could not move. Soon everything around me was gone, and I was left alone on the stone steps, and the sunlight lost its original color and gradually dimmed......
"Ah......h
It was not yet dawn, but I had completely lost my sleep, put on my coat, and quietly walked to the window, which was pitch black. The body does not seem to have fully recovered from the nightmare, and the whole body is very weak. Silently gazing at my reflection on the glass, the scene from a month ago resurfaced in front of me......
The fans in the internet café were still whirring and whirring annoyingly, but my attention was completely drawn to the slightly dirty computer monitor.
All that appeared in front of my eyes was an ordinary photo, a photo of Lele that I had never seen before. In the photo, Lele is as pure as the girl next door in the past, but in her eyes, I see a trace of melancholy. And what surprised me the most was that behind Lele was the main stadium of the Beijing Olympics - the Bird's Nest!
Unbelievably open Baidu, the time of completion of the Bird's Nest was June 29, 2008, and the departure of Cola was a year ago on October 3rd! In other words, no matter what, this photo could not exist! But right now, this photo is so clearly displayed in front of me......
Lin Hui, I think you'll have to give me an explanation.
Without hesitation, she dialed Lin Hui's phone, and Lin Hui's confused voice came from the other end of the phone, and she didn't seem to have woken up yet.
"Who...... The ...... of the big holiday Don't let people sleep......" Lin Hui muttered with some complaint.
"It's me. "My voice was unusually cold.
"Little ...... Xiaobei?" Lin Hui was very surprised by my sudden phone call, "How have you been doing lately?"
"Good. "I was absent-mindedly perfunctory, and I spoke so succinctly that even I couldn't believe it.
"Actually, I don't feel good about you, I've read your words, those melancholy words ......" Lin Hui spoke very slowly, so slow that I was a little anxious.
"Sister Hui, I want to know what's going on with that photo in your space!" Before Lin Hui finished speaking, I couldn't wait to go straight to the point.
"What...... What photo?" Having just woken up from her sleep, Lin Hui's reflex arc didn't seem to have adjusted.
"Lele's! the one taken in the Bird's Nest!" My heart was full of doubts, and my tone naturally became much stiffer, "Tell me, why did Lele appear there?"
"Ah......" Lin Hui seemed to be frightened by something, and suddenly screamed without warning.
"Lin Hui, Hui ...... Sister Hui, what's wrong with you?" I was startled by the screams on the other end of the phone.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing ......" There was a long series of silence in the microphone, and after waiting for a while, I heard Lin Hui's intermittent voice again, "Actually...... Actually, it was my own PS...... Much like ...... yes......"
"Really?" is a very unconvincing explanation, "Why?"
"What why? Li Xiaobei, Lele, don't you know what she is looking forward to the Beijing Olympics?" Lin Hui suddenly sped up her speech, and her rhetorical question made me speechless, Lele seemed to have said this to me before.
But I felt that something was not quite right. Could it be that Lele is still alive and well? This does sound like a fantasy, and Lin Hui's words made me unable to find the slightest reason to refute it, so I had no choice but to believe it......
The darkness outside the window finally gradually brightened a little, and a few figures appeared sporadically on the student street, and the sky was about to dawn. In the past month, I have not given up pursuing the clues of the whole thing, after all, Lin Hui's explanation is too far-fetched.
Since that day, Lin Hui's space has been locked, and it seems a bit out of place to use the word "covering" here, but I really can't find other more suitable words to describe the feelings in my heart, maybe Lin Hui is indeed deliberately hiding something.
And what exactly is that?
In front of me, there seem to be countless happy pictures, happy, sad, joyful, painful, probably some. Everything flashed like a movie, and finally froze on Lele's melancholy face in the photo, just like that night many years ago, the graceful figure standing in front of the curtain window made my whole soul crazy.
It's been a long time since I've been in love, and I'm used to living alone, and I'm used to quietly missing another person in one person's days.
But is that man really what I knew before, or is it all a lie?
