My hometown is a city known as the "Heavenly Hub of the Country". It can be traced back to the cultural heritage of the Sui and Tang dynasties, and has the modern civilization fashion of the highest consumption level in Asia, and the two are integrated. The scenery here is splendid and the four seasons are distinct.

Culture, entertainment, and catering are also some of the city's key words on the Internet, with the former laying the foundation of Moling, and the latter two establishing Moling's economic dominance among the country's 31 provincial capitals. But what people don't know is that a huge amount of information and money has come with it flooding this old and trendy city, where freedom, love, justice and monopoly, discrimination and crime coexist. People sing and dance all year round, and the whole city is lit up all night, and my brother and I grew up in such a place.

Xinhua is one of the five best middle schools in the city, and it has been my dream since childhood.

Xinhua and No. 1 Middle School, Yew Wah, Experiment, and Nankai are known as the "Five Middle Schools in the City", and these middle schools have a pivotal position in the city's education circles, and even have a long-term monopoly on the source of students. For the sake of their children's future, many parents throw a lot of gold and silver into these "brand-name" schools. For example, me, Fang Yufan, this child who is always worrying but annoying······

Compared with my sluggishness to books, my brother Fang Yuhui was admitted to Xinhua Middle School and High School with the first place in the city, and naturally became the "favorite" of this school. In order to take care of the fact that we were twin brothers, he assigned us to the same class - the ninth class of high school, and he naturally became the head of the first class.

This old and beautiful campus has left me with too many thoughts. The directness of right and wrong, the truth of good and evil, the freedom and simplicity, and the sweetness and comfort. It's full of people's sense of growth, and it's quietly changing everything we have.

On the first day of school, the playground was filled with a breeze unique to September, with the smell of lilacs, as if people lost their place in the excitement. The idle finches on the branches, in groups of three or five, looked at this place that was both familiar and unfamiliar. On the playground, after the principal's impassioned and lengthy speech, I regained the last bit of patience that morning and followed the head teacher into the school building in front of me.

On the way to the classroom, Yu Hui and my optic nerves were tightened again and again. Along the way, the unique structure and decoration attracted our interest. The dense spider-like forks can also be distributed clearly and transparently, and the combination of marble, clear plaster, and floor-to-ceiling windows sets off its tranquility and **. It can be seen that this is a very old building, and it is not easy to see the flaws in the renovated place. The hall is very spacious, and the tone of the chant seems to come to mind. To be honest, if you replace it with multicolored stained glass, it really looks like a church. It can be seen that many students have developed a strong interest in this place, and from time to time they touch and slide through the vivid wooden carved wall. There is a saying: the viewer himself is also the scenery. That's right, from the moment we stood in line, there were some voices talking about us.

"Look, it's a couple, right?"

"It's funny, it's a twin......"

Such sounds come and go, lingering on the leisurely walls. And I love the feeling of being in the spotlight.

After a hundred and ten steps, we came to the third floor of the teaching building and entered the second classroom on the left. The head teacher began to set us up seats, but the murmuring continued, and everyone happily chatted about what they thought was the most worth sharing. There were just two people, no curiosity, no sound, and even expressionlessness.

Yu Hui and I sat in two corners of the classroom, and a boy and I were sitting in the window row, one seat ahead of me. I pretended to stand up and move the table, deliberately touching the chair in front of me so that he could turn around and look at him. The blue vertical striped shirt catches the eye first, the Tibetan linen trousers are pulled up to the knees, revealing the dark and thick calves, the feet are pedaled with mixed cloth sneakers, and the short black hair gives people a simple and stable feeling. I don't know if it's early development, but a sparse mustache has grown under the tall nose bridge. Those eyes were large, bright, and precipitated. Actually, it was only two or three seconds, but I realized that I should say sorry out of politeness.

In front of the podium, the teacher was still arranging for the first few students to be seated. I paused for a moment and cast my gaze to the corner, a demure girl. The frolic of her classmates did not overshadow her quietness, and it became more distinct. The long black and light hair is evenly sprinkled on the chest, the oval face is dotted with delicate facial features, the streamer autumn wood is tied between the lovesickness, and the peach-colored mouth is full of spring. There are also those subtle eyes, which are not big eyes, but they hide thousands of emotions and are full of stories. What I can't forget the most is a short white scarf tied around my neck, not because I think it's new, but because of the blue color with a kind of sentimentality like a world away.

"Hey, classmate", I was slapped on the table by the classmate next to me, and then I came to my senses.

"Hello", I hurriedly replied.

"My name is Su Mei, and everyone who knows me likes to call me Miss Su, what's your name?"

"Miss Su"? This kind of opening statement made me forget for a moment how to communicate with people, and I panicked. She looked at me with big eyes, as if she was joking with me. If it's hard to find a midpoint of emotional distance between two strangers, it's almost impossible to stay awkward. So I couldn't look at her anymore, and I couldn't help but want to search for Yu Hui's location with my eyes. The homeroom teacher placed me at the end of the classroom, presumably so that everyone could distinguish between the two of us. For a while, the classmates were all happy, and Yu Hui's figure was nowhere to be found. My vision struggled for a while, and I slowly calmed down before I officially said hello to this cheerful girl.

"My name is Fang Yufan, hello."

"Oh, that's your name? I thought you forgot it. She smiled weirdly at me.

"What? Who forgot?"

"Why are you stupid, haha!"

Her laughter wasn't very loud, but it was very penetrating, and it was the first time I had heard such a magnetic voice. So I looked at the girl in front of me, she looked very small, not like a freshman in high school. The bridge of the nose is upright between the eyes of Dongting autumn water, like the wishful thinking of winter hiding, the small mouth of amber is placed in the middle of the room, a long round face, ruddy and fragrant, a pointed chin, piercing the chest socket, bangs neatly placed on the forehead, combed two shoulder-length pigtails, very well-behaved.

I chatted with her about the "silly" topic just now, only to find out that there were some dark yellow dots under her eyes, which I later learned were called freckles. At that time, I thought it was an infectious disease, and I felt a little uncomfortable being at the table with her.

"Shake hands, good friend!" she held out her hand, her fingers thin and long.

"It's a good friend if you don't have to shake it!" I didn't want to touch her before, and then said, "We're already good friends, aren't we?" She seemed to be very excited by my words, and grabbed my arm directly with a hand that she didn't hold, and stepped forward to cover my ear with the other hand, leaned over, and whispered: "I knew you were a real person, unlike your brother, who ignored mortals and looked like he couldn't be beaten!"

I chose to smile and did not argue for Yu Hui, because Yu Hui told me: never explain because others don't understand. At this time, all the students in the class had their own places, and the classroom gradually quieted down. The head teacher in front of us is a Chinese teacher, and from her brief self-introduction, there is a faint fragrance of Confucianism and Taoism. Although she wears glasses, she can't hide the blazing eyes, as if she can read through the hearts of each of us.

Her surname is Qiu, the autumn of autumn. She also read us a poem, saying that this is her favorite Tang poem, and I remember very well that it is a poem in Zhang Jiuling's "Twelve Sentimental Songs". When she read this poem, the feeling she brought us was wonderful, not only the spirit of the mountains and rivers in the Tang poems, but also the rhyme of the gurgling streams in the Song Dynasty, and it seemed to contain the smell of children's songs. She said that this is her, a motivated, happy and humorous woman, who wants to lead us to make greater and farther progress in life and learning in the future.

At the dinner table that day, I banged on the dishes and chopsticks and told my parents the story of a day at school, until everyone got tired of listening to it, and I went upstairs alone. Leaving Yu Hui to talk and laugh with his parents, they felt very satisfied.

In biology class the next day, a stocky male teacher told what he thought was a funny story about the trilobite's trick to defeat the enemy.

"Scientists have found that some species have small nodules or nodules on the dorsal armor, and these small nodules and nodules, together with the cheek spines, rib spines, and tail spines on the dorsal armor, form a complex protective 'armor'......" He performed with his body as he told the story of the Ordovician masters through his thick lips.

But I was really bored by his rhetoric, which seemed to me at the time to be completely unrelated to modernization. So, I secretly played a game of fighting tanks with Su Mei, and although we had a good time, we didn't dare to break the silence in the classroom. But just when we were all indulging in what we thought was fun, the whole class was shocked by the sound of Hulu. The most terrible thing is Yu Hui, presumably he was walking in the deepest part of the forest in the Cambrian period 200 million years ago, and suddenly heard such an incredible movement, and subconsciously even the pen in his hand fell on the desk. And the teacher's surprised expression made everyone present feel pressured. Su Mei and I wanted to laugh, but we stopped at this atmosphere.

There was silence, but only the cry remained. I finally couldn't help it and laughed. People say that laughter can be transmitted. This time was no exception, and a commotion ensued. At the same time, everyone kept looking east and west, trying to find out who could make such a hilarious voice so unscrupulously.

I craned my neck towards Yu Hui's seat, and at this time, Yu Hui also cast a gaze at me, and when he saw me, he glanced ahead in understanding, and winked at me, meaning "It's her, it's her"!

I looked in that direction, and there was a guy who was asleep on the table, but it was clearly a girl. I stared at her in the dream realm, and my heart beat a drum: it seems that this girl can also be drunk, but she can't underestimate the enemy. The most important thing is that I didn't expect her personality statement to be chosen in class on the second day of school, which is really amazing.

Then, the teacher asked the classmates behind her to wake her up, and everyone looked at her with innocent expressions when they rubbed their eyes, just like a cold child poked her waist and eyes, and the whole class boiled again. But we were all quite conscious, and without waiting for the teacher to pull his face, he gradually quieted down, letting Su Jing and ** hover in the air of the classroom again.

"Hey, who is she?" I couldn't help but ask Miss Su for advice.

"How do I know! Hey, you can't play anymore?" she glanced at the girl's place, and turned back to me, "It seems to be called Zhenzhen." I don't know, you ask Zhang Shi, it's the boy with the biggest belly sitting in the last row of us, he knows everything. ”

What kind of person is that? I wondered why Su Mei would say that he knew everything, and from her tone I felt that this character was a jack of all trades! Later, I passed him a note, and sure enough, I knew that the girl's surname was Xiao, and her name was Xiao Zhenzhen. But when I asked further, he didn't want to answer. This kind of inquiry is indeed a bit abrupt, but because the person named Zhang Shi smiled helplessly at me, I was a little puzzled.

"It's so strange that people here seem to have to guess everything. "In the bathroom, Yu Hui and I chatted about these trivial matters.

"Hehe, because everyone has grown up, and I think this is a very special campus ......," Yu Hui said.

Indeed, there seems to be some kind of affinity in this school. Not long after the start of school, everyone was already in one piece. They are all children of the same age, and they are very angry when they talk and do things, but they are also all children's tempers. It's just that the two people I'm most interested in are just shadows and don't smile. I just wanted to test one first, and according to Su Mei's wishes, I started with the mustache first. After a chemistry class, I pretended to go to the mustache to borrow a pen.

"Classmate, do you have a pen, black?" I patted him lightly on the back.

He didn't even look back, shook his head, and a deep voice came out of his mouth, "I'm sorry, I only have this one," he clenched a short pencil in his hand and held it up to me. Suddenly, I was a little embarrassed by his sincerity and my impolite behavior.

"It's okay," I said quickly.

"My name is Li Tianhao, not mustache", he turned around and took the initiative to introduce himself.

I had already turned around and was about to report my results to Miss Su, but I was very embarrassed by this sudden ridicule and non-joke. In this class, the news ran so fast, I slowly twisted my body back, stuck out my tongue, and saw that he didn't seem to care too much, and my heart was steady.

At the end of school, several classmates from the same direction got together when they went home, and my brother Yuhui and I chatted with them as we walked, and among these people was the all-knowing big belly Zhang Shi. He turned out to be a propaganda committee member in the class. I secretly thought that such a position was indeed very suitable for him, and he not only knew everything, but also said everything and promoted it everywhere. So I suddenly mentioned the mustache in the class, and then I learned from the big belly that the mustache's home was in the suburbs, and the family used to have an orchard, and the conditions were not bad. However, due to the early death of his father, his mother entrusted the orchard to his brother-in-law in order to concentrate on raising him. But people are unpredictable, and within a few years, the uncle who laughs all day long brought them a roll of bread and bread, and sold the orchard to get money, but there was no trace. The mother and son had a very hard life, and later in order to send him to the city to study, they sent their only ancestral house to the villagers. In the city, it is no better than the countryside, food, clothing, housing and transportation are very expensive, and a pen is already a luxury for his family. I heard that Li Tianhao doesn't like to communicate with people very much, is a little unsociable, and naturally has no friends, and intuitively thinks that he should be a person with strong self-esteem. In view of his excellent character and learning, the relevant departments allocated it to Xinhua, and the school also waived his tuition.

Looking back now, the pencil tip he was holding in his hand at the time, coupled with the dialogue of the purpose, made me feel very sad.

Back at home, after dinner, Yu Hui finished his homework early and sorted out things in his room. When we were in the second grade of primary school, my parents gave us a separate room, and because the home was more spacious, he stayed where he was, so I moved to the study next door. I opened the door and there was a large square window on the opposite side, which for me would overshadow all the beautiful decorations in the house. Especially on a clear night, sometimes hiding yourself in the dark to experience loss, sometimes accepting the light kiss of the moonlight and meditating.

Today's night came a little late, I was lying in front of the window, there were few lights in the building opposite, such a quiet night, looking at the endless sky, suddenly realized that I was about to spend three years in this "special campus", from the bottom of my heart welled up a burst of impulses, reverie, I opened the window. Teacher Qiu's demeanor in class, Zhang Shi's big belly, Li Tianhao's mustache, the dignified and quiet girl, the unrestrained Miss Su, and Yu Hui's expression of being shocked by Xiao Zhenzhen's snoring in class, I laughed out loud at this moment. At this moment, thousands of miles away, a cluster of firelight flashed in the air, envying all the starlight, and very simply passed through my eyes. It dragged its short tail, like a short white scarf......

Yu Hui's mind must be able to melt away all misunderstandings and barriers, and he has a keen insight into the things around him. In the self-study class the next morning, he walked softly to Li Tianhao's desk and put down a bulging bag, "Yesterday I packed up my things at home and picked out some things that you can use." There is also this fountain pen, let's use it together, it can be regarded as a little bit of heart from me and Yufan. ”

Li Tianhao was silent for a long time, and his lips trembled a few times. Yu Hui patted him on the shoulder and asked jokingly, "You don't have to be so serious, right?"

I saw Li Tianhao pick up the pen and look at the things on the table, without making a sound or looking up. Suddenly, there was a hurried buzz that resounded through the building, as if it was about to end everything that was not over. Just when the bell entered the high note, just when Yu Hui had just turned his body and hadn't taken half a step, a "thank you" passed by his ears, so light and suitable, no one heard it except for them.

At the same time, I paid no attention to the ringtone, and still drew her dignified appearance on the paper, hair, eyes, lips, ...... A good scene is about to emerge, but when I add that scarf, I feel that I have lost the original taste. Seeing that it was almost a month since the start of school, she had never said a word except to deal with the questions of her classmates and teachers around her. From the way Teacher Qiu looked at her, I seemed to feel a kind of pain, and I believed that Teacher Qiu must know something, and even felt that they had a special relationship.

Although I knew that this was the Nth time that I had not completed my homework on time, and my brother had been officially removed from his position as my personal gunman, I still couldn't stop my pace.

I'm still willing to find the arrow that pierces Argos's eye in the midst of this confusion.

In the spiritual communication with her, I felt that a kind of proud belief was gradually exhausted, and the release of helplessness and sadness grew in my inner world, and was transformed into a strength close to her, so as to achieve balance.

One day after school, I deliberately hid from Yu Hui, saying that I had something to buy and could not go home with him. While waiting at the intersection she often passes, she wants to pretend to be a coincidence. After only waiting for a while, she really pushed her bicycle and walked this way. I strengthened my courage, calculated the right time, and went up to meet him.

"Classmates ......"

"Are you waiting for me?"

"Ah?......" I was a little confused, but I quickly answered her, "yes, I, I'm making a bet with my brother to see who can be friends with you first." Looks like I'm going to get a head start. Hehe, it's not easy to win him......".

The corners of her mouth curled slightly, and she looked up at the already dark sky.

"Bet?" she said, in a perfunctory tone.

"Your name is Cheng Ying, and you saw it from the workbook, right?" I thought this sentence was a little out of place, but her answer surprised me again: "What I saw is true." She fiddled with the handlebars, "Don't you bet on me, aren't you ashamed?"

I didn't fully understand the meaning of these two sentences, especially the previous one. In addition to the profundity, it is more because such words and phrases have never played out in my head. She turned the handlebars again and got on. I also expected her to give me a relatively clear word, but in her mouth, even hearing goodbye was regarded as a luxury, leaving only another helpless smile, which was gradually digested by the lights shining in the distance......

Tonight I leaned back against the window, pondering what she said, "What you see is true." What a little-known story has happened to the owner of this statement, a girl who is only sixteen years old, what is so special about her experience, plus that face, those eyes, that people have to worry about her. In a person's life, there are many things that the more you want to know, the more confused you become, and after a little forgetfulness, there are unexpected gains. And this harvest, which is limited to the gift, cannot choose the way it comes.

In the afternoon of one day, the school organized a cleaning of the sanitary environment for all students during the last two classes.

I don't think Yu Hui will be the leader, and the position of class leader is also an official in the class, but how can being an official be so affected? I am alone in the work of cleaning the glass windows in half of the classroom, and I am angry and painful on the side. For the sake of face, I couldn't complain, so I had to pick up the mop, carry the bucket and turn around and leave the classroom.

I saw a long queue at the place where the water was fetched, so I turned around and went straight to the gymnasium on the north side of the playground, thinking that I should be able to find a place to get water. It's a stomach, and it's shaking when you walk, and you bump into people along the way, as long as you don't meet someone taller than yourself, you don't mean to dodge.

When I stepped on the playground and embraced the sun, my mood brightened. The sun has grown my shadow, and every life in the campus life seems to be like a fairy tale, and the golden leaves and the shining earth form a poetic scene. As I walked towards the front, I looked up at the students upstairs who were cleaning the windows outside, and I guess there was sweat in the falling water. Ho, that's a lot of work!

"Oops," I bumped into a man who looked crazy, and he hit his ass. I was already angry, and I didn't bother to look carefully, so I shouted at him, "Catch the train!"

"I haven't said you yet! I don't look forward when you walk, you nerve!" the man dusted off the dirt and got up, but the large stack of newspapers in his arms was scattered on the ground.

"Looks like you're not apologizing?"

"Why should I apologize? It's obvious that you don't look at the road when you're in the aisle!

Seeing him so provocative, I want to take a good look at him. The sword eyebrows swept across, the round eyes were brown, and the red mole in the center of the eyebrows was even more vivid. The ancient road is connected with straight beams and sharp wings, and Ma Liang's thin lips are just like the heart of the moon on the halberd, and they are not sloppy. He was about the same height as me, dressed in plain clothes. This appearance made me feel a little respectful, but the anger in my heart did not fade because of this, but I still tried to give him another chance to beg for mercy.

I walked over to him, got very close to him, and then, staring at his wide chin, said, "Boy, you have to apologize to me!"

He didn't say a word, grabbed me by the collar, and I pushed him away. I looked at him one last time before I made a move, and my anger was about to be vented to him through my eyes. Almost at the same time, the two of us rushed together, from the sports group to the fountain at the main entrance of the school. I can't tell where it is, anyway, it's in the fist. But he is really a difficult character, and he seems to be in a hurry by me, holding my clothes with his right hand, waving his left hand indiscriminately, and kicking and kicking both legs. After a few rounds, the whole person felt like crazy. Since I was a child, I have heard the old people say: the horizontal is afraid of screwing, and the screwing is afraid of dying. When I saw his posture, it was clear that he was desperate, and suddenly, most of his anger was reduced. At this time, punching and kicking have become a kind of inertia, a kind of accessory of time. I woke up a little and began to notice the people around me watching the fight, feeling like his collar was about to be ripped off, and I wanted to put an end to the conflict that had made me lose interest.

I grabbed him by the shoulder, keeping my distance from him, and fended off his raindrops. It's just no more punching, no more aggressive movements. I know he doesn't have a lot of energy, and that obviously shows from his pace. I took this opportunity to kick out my right leg, slammed it straight into his hips, and pushed him hard to the ground. He sat on the floor, gasping for breath, staring at me with stunned eyes. I thought I should give him a hand, ease up, and with that thought, I approached him. But I was wrong, he was still in a daze on the ground and suddenly put his hands on it, and he suddenly exerted his force, and his feet kicked heavily on my lower abdomen. I didn't have time to parry, my feet softened, and I curled up in place.

He and I both fell to the ground, and perhaps he was just as overwhelmed by the crowd of unfamiliar faces as I was. I was really afraid that I would stab some Lou Zi when I first entered school, so I picked up the bucket and mop, and wanted to disappear into the crowd like this. But how can there be such a cheap thing, how can such a scale of onlookers not attract the attention of the school leaders, I am about to spread my wings and soar to see the sunny day, a big heavy hand slapped on my back.

"Ah, Director Zhang. "It's really bad luck to get home, how could I meet the person I shouldn't have met the most. I've heard people say that there is an admissions director who is the most annoying person in the whole school, so I have long been afraid of him, hoping not to deal with him in a way that I shouldn't have. I don't know if it's a thief's weakness or a reflex, anyway, when I saw him this time, I couldn't help but bow deeply to him first, and the curvature almost made my face almost touch my thighs.

"What are you all looking at, go back to your respective classes!" As soon as Director Zhang's words landed, dozens of onlookers evaporated in an instant.

"What class are you from, and what's your name?" he said with a frown, and by the tone of his voice, he was clearly not interested in the polite gesture I had just made.

"We're joking, aren't we, who is that...... "I don't know what the opponent in the fight is called, and the play can't go smoothly. But I don't know what's going on, but I still laugh.

"Don't be hippie with me, ask me what class you're from?" he was serious, like a wax man.

"Fang Yufan, the ninth class of high school. ”

"What about you?" he looked at the boy who was crouching on the ground.

"Director, he hit me, I ......" He stood up from the ground again and dusted the dirt off his body again.

"Which class are you from?" Xing was probably dissatisfied with my sloppy attitude, and he nagged again, Director Zhang pointed at the two of us, "You all come to the office with me!"

With that stern order, we disarmed and surrendered, and followed Director Zhang to the second floor of the complex building, and before entering the office, we heard a crisp voice behind the corridor: "I can prove it, they are playing around." ”

I wondered very much, how could someone follow us, I couldn't believe that someone would stand up for us to defend us with such loopholes, and I couldn't believe that it would appear in front of the feared Director Zhang.

When I looked back, he was slightly taller than me and Yu Hui, and his complexion was snow-white, and he was very handsome. The long hair that is slightly in the way can be brushed through the ears of butterflies; a pair of red bird tail eyebrows are wiped in the eye sockets, and the deep and slender eyes that grow below seem to be flowing water; the sharp nose can sometimes make a "squeeze" sound; the lips are as red as apricots; and the head is raised neatly, revealing a romantic appearance.

"Oh?" Director Zhang slowly turned his head and looked at this person expressionlessly. I felt like they knew each other very well.

The man smiled and waved his hand at Director Zhang, and nodded again, but the effect was obviously a hundred times stronger than our apology. He continued, "Director, there should be no big deal here, and I should also pay some responsibility, let me talk to them." ”

"Alright, so be it. Director Zhang twisted the water stain of the fountain pen in his hand, slapped the heavy hand on my back, and said, "Go back and ask the head teacher to write me a note, go back to do hygiene." "Is it that simple? I can't believe it.

When he was gone, a stone in my heart fell to the ground. And in the face of the person in front of you, you should be thankful.

"Ah, hello! We both have been saved thanks to you. My name is Fang Yufan, and his name is ...... What the hell, you, say you!" I said to my opponent.

"My name is Dai Junchen, I am in the sixth class of high school, you should be a senior, right?"

The man seemed to be smiling, supported himself with one hand, and sat on the windowsill behind him: "I am Huo Ziqian, a sophomore in high school." ”

Huo Ziqian, such a figure who can influence Director Zhang's decision, it seems that he has never heard Zhang Shi mention it.

"I said I haven't seen you, it's a new little brother in high school. His eyes were looking straight at me.

"Oh, yes, I'm just here, and I have to rely on you to take care of everything!"

"That's fine, but I want to know if you and a guy named Fang Yuhui are brothers?"

He actually asked Yu Hui, presumably this time the solidarity was also prepared. I thought to myself, since I have done me such a great favor, there is no need to panic with him.

"He's my brother and we're twins. Actually, she was born two minutes earlier than me, hehe......"

"Hmm. I already knew your brother, and you and your brother will follow me in the future, I will cover you, and if someone bullies you, mention my name. ”

What kind of words is this? What kind of talk is this? What kind of help and what kind of help does he want us to join, I don't want to do it, I just want to be free and easy for these three years. Besides, not to mention that I can't be Yu Hui's master, not to mention that it's impossible for him to mess around in the gang. At this time, Dai Junchen, who was standing on the side, felt a little left out, and his eyes showed a sense of confusion.

"Well, it's okay, I'll go first. His words were ambiguous, whether this "go" was necessary, or was it discussed, and to whom was it addressed? It was not too clear, but he put down this sentence, took a step, and ran downstairs.

Huo Ziqian didn't speak, turned around and looked downstairs through the window. The playground was still lively, and there were still a few newspapers tangled in the corner. Seeing Dai Junchen running downstairs, he turned his head again, jumped up, and landed on his feet. And because of Dai Junchen's departure, I didn't want to pick up the topic of joining any gang, and pursed my lips to prepare for my next departure.

"That...... Senior, I'll go first, and if I can finish wiping the floor before the homeroom teacher comes back, I should be able to go home early. ”

"Didn't you put what I said in your ears? His face changed, like a demon in a cloak in a fairy tale. In an instant, the big day in front of me seemed to turn into night. The surroundings are also covered with cannibal flowers that only grow in the underworld, spitting resentment in their mouths, and the bones of the white flowers are floating in the air, making various gestures. And I, unarmed, can only stupidly wait for his judgment.

"Hey!" a voice woke me up, "didn't you hear me?"

"Huh?" I was glad I could wake up, and everything was back to normal except for a cold sweat.

"You have to think about it", he put his hand on my shoulder, "I see that you are a backbone to appreciate you, but don't know how to lift, I will wait for your news". After saying that, he threw down an inferior smile and left.

I put down what I was holding, propped myself up, and sat on the windowsill. This is really a strange thing, and he told Yuhui whether he believed it or not. Think about it, what is it that there are evil forces in such a famous and high-quality school...... What a disgrace. This Huo Ziqian still seems to be from a lot of background, Director Zhang has to give him face, it's weird. This Xinhua is really "special", Huo Ziqian Lingran looks like a chivalrous man, if you want to talk about brute force, will you compare Zhang Shi to it? I pondered in my heart, and while rubbing my still sour stomach with my hands, I went downstairs and walked out of the complex. Suddenly, I felt that I was being noticed, and when I looked up, it turned out to be Cheng Ying and Su Mei. The two of them seemed to be passing by, and their expressions were very cold.

"Ahh

Cheng Ying's face was very ugly, like a freshly bleached white paper. Su Mei held her and looked at me together, not like she had something to say, but listened. This kind of staring made me feel very embarrassed, and someone just came out from behind me and touched me, so I quickly turned sideways to give way to others, also deliberately avoiding their gaze, and thinking about what the next topic should be. But if I wanted to say anything more, the two of them had already flown away with the wind.

When I returned to the class, everyone was still busy, and Mr. Qiu stood at the door early and waited for me, presumably because he already knew about my fight. It's not as good as 1510's move, and the result is as expected, confessing leniently and resisting strictly. I was saved by my correct judgment, and I was given a pledge and a note, and I did not receive a harsher admonition.

Cheng Ying said that she was not feeling well, and Su Mei sent her home first. Teacher Qiu said to me, "You can help the two of them do the work, and you can't be punished at all." ”

"Oh, yes!" I said yes, but in my heart I felt miserable.

The rag was smeared indiscriminately on the table and chair, but he was thinking about what happened just now, especially what disease Cheng Ying had?

When he got home and talked to Yu Hui, he just said that he should not have any more contact with that person named Huo Ziqian. Regarding Cheng Ying, he said that I was thinking too much. But since that time, there is no longer a shadow of Cheng Ying in the class, Teacher Qiu said that she was on sick leave, but Zhang Shi said that there was another hidden reason.

At the end of that year, it should be the end of October, and it is a day full of autumn in my memory. In the evening, Li Yifei came to my house to do homework, she is a frequent visitor to our house, her nickname is Fei Fei, because she is a little fat, so I always shout these two words twice. Her father and my grandfather were colleagues in the same unit, and when they heard that Yu Hui was excellent in learning, character, and appearance, he wanted his "princess" to walk around with my family more. It seems that she has nothing to do with Yu Hui, and she always looks "caring" to me, causing me to often have nightmares all night for a while.

Mom was busy in the kitchen downstairs, and Dad was doing it. We were talking and laughing in the room. I'm always making fun of Fei Fei, and I can't learn anymore when I amuse Yu Hui.

"Fatty, let's eat less for a while, you don't have a loss of appetite, my table and bench can suffer a big loss." ”

I was still laughing at her, but she had jumped up from her chair and clenched her fists at me. I dodged left and right, slipped through my desk, and escaped to the window. Cover the curtains and pose as a blindside.

"Let you run, stinky boy, let you taste your fist!" she pulled open the curtain and smirked at me.

"Sister Feifei, I know it's wrong, brother, save me......" Yu Hui laughed so hard that he couldn't make peace with her, Fei Fei refused to give up, and his hammer-like fist kept spilling on my helpless body. I took a spin with her and switched positions. In the dodge, with the lights of the house outside the window, my eyes jumped over Fei Fei in front of me, focusing on an extraordinarily remote corner, where the street lamps were so dim that they made people drowsy. In front of a mottled red brick wall, a handsome girl was tossing and turning, as if waiting for something, looking forward to something, and as if she was competing with everything around her for the moonlight and the sky. Wait, there's a white scarf tied around her neck.

"What are you looking at? What's wrong?" Fei Fei didn't know when she stopped, and Yu Hui's laughter disappeared, only the sound of a spatula colliding came from the kitchen.

"Ah...... I've taken it, have I had enough?" I tried to deflect their instincts, because I didn't want anyone else to know why.

"I haven't fought enough, so I owe it first, and I'll let you go this time. ”

"Come down, let's eat!" Dad has had a background in Peking Opera since he was a child, and his voice is not lost to anyone. Yu Hui put down his doubts and ran to the restaurant to help. Fei Fei was about to follow, and I grabbed her, "Do me a favor, good sister?" My voice was small and earnest.

"So polite? ”

"I want to go downstairs and buy some drinks to help me get around. ”

"On such a cold day, my aunt didn't agree. I'm not going to help you carry the black pot. She waved her hand and rejected me.

I knew I had to go downstairs, and I knew that if the mushroom went down like this, she might not be there. Having made up my mind to do something bad to Fei Fei, I took a step ahead of her and stroked my mother's ear.

"Fatty said she wanted to drink something, I'll take a look downstairs for her. ”

Mom nodded, and I took a long breath and ran out the door without looking back, my coat or coat.

There aren't a lot of stars tonight, and it's extra chic to scatter a few points. Turning around the intersection, I saw a flowerpond and saw the red brick wall. Although I was still 100 meters away from her, I was still sure that it was her in the weak light. Her shadow was folded against that wall by the street lamp not far away, and they resonated with each other with loneliness, and I was naturally sensitive to this, so I was sure it was her, yes, but there was a dark sedan next to it that I hadn't noticed just upstairs.

"Waiting for someone?" I deliberately slowed down, for fear that the sudden sound would scare her. Then, with her expression, she told me how bad the appearance was at the moment, and in an instant, in her eyes, I could even read the boredom.

"Are you well?" I tried to communicate with her, after all, it was not easy to meet her.

"Hmm. She didn't answer very simply.

"When are you coming back to class? ”

She didn't speak again, her eyes reminding me of the last time we met two months ago—an almost exhaustive aura that roamed the most unknown corners of her body, and with the sorrow that made my heart ache, and the time passed by second. In fact, the time allowed to be outdoors has arrived, and there is no room for me to linger any longer, and I want to wait for her to say a word, even if it is perfunctory, I will definitely turn around and leave.

"That's where my family lives. "Desperate to break the ice, I unconsciously fiddled with the buttons on my sweater as I pointed to the windows of the top two floors of the building behind me.

Listening to my description, her eyes shot more fear and doubt. This time, it wasn't just the eyes, but it seemed to be sending a message of begging to me with everything that encompassed the breath of the whole body, as if to let me leave. At that moment, I somehow decided that she was destined to be alone. While we were guessing at each other, a tall figure emerged from the battlements of a silver-gray building behind her, walked up to us with a smile, and asked, "Yingying, are you classmates?" and I quickly greeted him politely: "Hello uncle." ”

"You're wearing too little, you're going to catch a cold. "Being so concerned about him made me feel cold. The exhaled breath could turn into white smoke, and in the bursts of formed breaths, I looked at the man intently. He is sturdy and burly, dressed in formal clothes, and has a strong business spirit; he has a square face, thick eyebrows, thick lenses blocking the eyes of the two Yu Qian small eyes, and a straight nose bridge on the wings of the nose that are at the same level as the tip of the nose; plump lips are born under Lu Xun's mustache; and his ears are covered by dense temples and long hair. I calculated in my heart that if I was about forty-five years old, I wouldn't be Cheng Ying's father, right?

"Dad", Cheng Ying's voice lit up my confused thoughts. Really, as Yu Hui said, I love to think too much. I laughed at myself, and with a slight force on my wrist, the buttons on the sweater were ripped off, and I don't know where the bumps were, and whether the journey was hard.

Cheng Ying waved at me, as if in a different mood, and followed her father into the car and drove to the avenue. At this time, I had forgotten all about the drink, and I was just laughing at my own crankiness. At that time, I tried to deny all the calculations I had made about her, and I let go of many incomprehensions, but in my heart, I could sometimes think of her haggard look, confused eyes and lonely images.

The wind in the depths of winter doesn't know who to love, so I stepped up my pace and climbed to the sixth floor in one go.

"Where's the stuff? Didn't you buy it?"

"What?" I said, trying to figure out what my mother's "thing" was, and seeing Fei Fei's puzzled expression, I suddenly came back to my senses, "Oops! I forgot to bring the money." I smirked and sat down. But my father said: "I always like to forget things, I can't change it since I was a child, don't lose myself in the future." ”

"Maybe I'll tell you, I'm going to have to teach him a lesson!" Fei Fei gestured at me with a fist under the table, squeezing her eyes at me. I quickly picked up my coat, and if I let her do the beast punch in front of my parents, it would be no shame at all. "Run again! Bitter or not, think of the Red Army's Long March 25,000!" I said as I put on my clothes and ran out of the house, holding back my grunting stomach. Fei Fei knocked on the dishes and chopsticks and shouted, "I want to drink Coke, little confused." Their laughter could be heard from inside the house, and the lonely cold was well hidden behind the iron door of their house.

After dinner, I was supposed to use a game of guessing to decide who was the unlucky guy who would go downstairs to return the Coke bottle, but I uncharacteristically put them in a plastic bag one by one and ran downstairs with a grin. When I returned the empty bottles, I no longer held the bottles in my arms in front of my chest, and I felt a little empty. Somehow, I ran to the place where I saw Cheng Ying to find the button—the only excuse to convince myself.

Talking about this is the winter vacation, and the winter of that year is particularly comfortable. There is snow to see, and large swaths of silver are the best hallucinogens to satisfy fantasies. I love these things the most, and snow is, in my opinion, the best gift that the four seasons give to the world. Unexpectedly, Fei Fei had the same idea as me.

It snowed hard one night, but the next day it was a rare sunny day, and the fat sun lit up the white-decorated city with a silvery sheen. It was on a whim that I made an appointment with her to meet her in front of a tavern called SOROSE, because it was adjacent to the largest commercial square in the city, and it was the best choice for summer and snow watching for many years. IF YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT ITS NAME, IT IS EVERYONE KNOWS IT, EVERYONE KNOWS IT, IT IS THE FAMOUS TUTU SQUARE IN THE CITY, AND ONLY LATER DID I HEAR THAT IT WAS A SHOPPING MALL OWNED BY THE FRENCH.

When I came out, I looked back at the snow white of the world through the window, and thought to myself, the current TUTU must have a graceful fairy tale dress. Next, I wrapped myself tightly, put on my newly purchased cotton boots, and wore a big red scarf around my neck.

The creaking of snow under my feet was my favorite sound in the city, so I walked through the thick, clean snow. After playing like this for a while, when I raised my head again, the tavern was already close in front of me, because of all the silver reasons, the little red in front of the door was surprisingly bright, and it turned out that Fei Fei also chose red to match this street scene - a bright red down jacket.

At that time, I could realize that in such a white city, I was happy to meet a rare red, and maybe my red scarf could also amaze Fei Fei. It's because it's reasonable for such a coincidence to appear in a fairytale-like landscape.

"Fat!" I patted her on the head.

"Damn you," she threw a punch at me, and before I could dodge, it hit me right in the chest. "It's called that again, I don't have a long memory!"

"You don't need to be so vicious, do you? You have taken a strong pill? It's amazing! This punch hurts my chest. ”

"Who told you to talk about me again? Then you won't hide? If you want to say that you are slow to react, no one will believe you. ”

I pretended to be in pain, sank down, and took the opportunity to dig a handful of snow on the ground in my hands. "It hurts...... I won't play with you again next time, I can't make a joke. Oops!hiss...... "I gasped when the snow was cold.

"I'll take a look, I'm sorry, okay?" Fei Fei crouched next to me, touched my hair and said, "I'll treat you to chocolate." ”

"Oh, it's your kindness, I'll take it. But I've got something for you to eat too!" When I made sure she was defenseless, I jumped up from the ground and threw the snowball that had been firmly pinched by my hand, and without looking at it, I turned around and ran.

I don't know how I managed to get through the crowd, and at that speed I could at least make it to a school sports day. But it didn't take long for me to suddenly realize that we were separated.

I searched for the brightness of orthodoxy in a silver-white picture, and kept searching, and kept going in circles, until I returned to the place where we were separated for the fourth time.

At the same time, Li Tianhao was walking on the road to my house with two sweet potatoes. There were two special sweet potatoes, which looked very interesting, as if they were carrying some kind of story. Yu Hui was watching his favorite TV show "Discovery" at home, and a knock on the door ten minutes later ended his journey into the universe.

"Li Tianhao?" Yu Hui was full of suspicion, because he never thought that such a person could have the courage to visit. I don't know if it's because in addition to the two heavy and surprisingly ugly sweet potatoes that I was embarrassed to bring, I was still a little nervous, and Li Tianhao's face began to bloom with a pink. Yes, such an uninvited come, for him, what he brought was not a kind of muna.

"Home, don't you live far away?" Yu Hui was busy making tea in the kitchen while greeting him.

"Ok, there was a bus to the school every day. I have to get up before six o'clock, get used to it. Li Tianhao looked at the furnishings in the room, and everything conveyed a strange scene with him. "You and Fang Yufan live upstairs, right? It's a big house," he seemed to speak into the air.

"Oh, yes. Yu Hui replied simply and simply, he walked out of the kitchen step by step with the tea set tray in his hand, and put it on the coffee table in the living room, and the cups collided with a particularly beautiful sound.

After their politeness, they sat down on their knees politely. "I brought you two sweet potatoes, which I grew at home and were very clean. Tianhao glanced at the two interesting sweet potatoes placed at the door, but his expression was also quite interesting.

"Oh, do you have a yard at home, is it big?"

"No, my mother went back to the countryside to pick it. Not very far from where I now live, is my aunt's field, the soil is very fat, and everything grows stout. If you count the area, there are more than 30 acres of land. ”

"It's amazing! ”

"Hehe, come on, let you live for three or five years? After a long time, you won't think so, how can you stand such a hard work. There is no traffic in the city, the lights are brilliant, and you can't wear beautiful clothes, sometimes you have to go to the field to farm before the rooster crows, and when you sleep at night, you are covered in mud, and your hands will grow calluses......"

Yu Hui and Tianhao started a long chat like this, I didn't know that there were snowflakes floating outside the window again, and I didn't know that at this time I was still worried about looking for Fei Fei's traces everywhere.

I was anxious to go into the tavern, though I knew very well that she would not be found there. Although I walked around the door, I couldn't help but admire the beauty it brought me. The reason why SOROSE is called a pub instead of a bar or restaurant is because it has become an indispensable symbol of identity, mood and taste of citizens in addition to selling alcohol. To put it simply, there is a strong intellectual taste, and there is a lot of human flavor in it. It was the first time I had been so close to it, and I was fascinated and stunned for a long time. What attracted me the most was its architectural style, which blended the forms of the Nordic countryside with ancient Byzantine architecture. The top of the tavern was covered with matte planks of egg yellow, and the four corners of the edge of the house stretched outward, as if to touch the ground. Seven black round stone pillars, as well as a loudspeaker gramophone placed in the doorway that was too old to sing, also added to the splendor of the place. On the whole, the simple and fluid shape makes one have to admire the designer's courage and confidence.

I took two steps closer and looked at the clean brown glass so that it was no longer transparent, and suddenly, with the last bit of hope, dodged the cold doorknob and pushed open the door of the tavern, where the dimness of the light made it impossible to tell whether it was day or night, and I had to rely on the floor-to-ceiling brass lamps to spit out the yellow in turn. I looked around at the crowd of customers, but I couldn't find the person I was looking for. Just as I was about to push the door open, I was caught in a sunny corner outside through the glass, forcing me to take a closer look.

"Where are you?" I yelled at her, angrily.

Who knew that she hugged me, and she cried out, and in an instant tears soaked my shoulders. At the same time, I could hear her fingertips scratching on my back. She hugged her tighter and tighter, leaving me breathless, I pushed her away and asked, "I didn't yell at you, scared?"

"I can't find you, where have you been? The little rabbit lost his wallet, so his mother bought it. What should I do, what should I do?" she choked up, her eyelids drooping, and her tears dripping the thick snow into small holes.

I looked around, took a tissue from my pocket and pressed it to her face, saying, "If you cry again, your face will be red when the wind blows, and it hurts." ”

At this time, the snowflakes hiding on the branches of the trees were swept up by the gusts of wind and fluttered one after another. I rubbed my frozen red nose and said, "If you lose it, you can lose it, and you can avoid disaster!" I persuaded her for about seven or eight minutes, and when I saw that she had calmed down a little, I took her on the way home. When passing by the flower, bird, fish and insect market, a lively noise made me prick up my ears, so I pulled Fei Fei over to watch.

In the middle of the crowd was a white Dongfeng ten-person sedan chair, in front of which lay a 20-year-old green bicycle, and a little boy of seven or eight years old sat on the side of the road with his hands on his knees and looked innocently at these strangers.

"You really owe a beating, you drag me again, don't do your business!" This foreign voice came from a tall and thin man in the center of the crowd, his facial features were not very clear, and in the distance he could only see a black bitter gourd face and a puff of smoky yellow fangs, and his sleeves were tightly held by a student of my age with both hands.

"You hit someone and still want to run? You murder me? See if everyone doesn't teach you a lesson!" This classmate's words were a bit rushed, but I sincerely appreciated them.

"Teach me a lesson? I'm just beating you, so what? Which eye saw it?Which stupid doll is this, has anyone taken it away?" The man took out a dark green notebook, which shook in the air like a match, and swished into his pocket again. Then he said to the crowd: "I'm a reporter, it's time to go to work for an interview, just now I turned right normally, and the lights were on, and I ...... talk about it."

The man tirelessly explained to the crowd, grabbing almost everyone's attention, and I was only interested in the classmate who spoke very aggressively. Looking at it, I suddenly felt like I had seen it somewhere, like the minister who fought with me at school last time. When I was muttering on the side, I was probably so distracted that Fei Fei looked at me curiously without noticing. When she saw that I was not responding, she put her arm on my shoulder and said to me, "Hey, you see, this man has a chivalrous face." ”

So, is it really him? So I lifted my foot to see more clearly, how did I know that one foot had broken and almost fell, and if I hadn't been lucky enough to tie a man's shoulder in a panic, I would have made a big appearance. When he calmed down and looked around, he had already reached the center of the crowd, and Fei Fei also took advantage of the crowd to squeeze in.

"Hey, Fang Yufan!" he spotted me and pointed at my nose and shouted.

"Sure enough, it's you, Dai Junchen!" I leaned close to his ear and said, "Hit someone?"

"Well, I saw him turn left at this intersection without flashing his lights or slowing down, which was obviously his responsibility. ”

Before his reasoning was over, the bitter gourd-faced man was about to get into the car. I hurriedly drank him: "Hey, this uncle, let's not say whether you are a reporter or not, just say that the car hit someone, you can't just leave, whether it has anything to do with you, you have to send this little brother to the hospital for examination and examination." ”

"Don't do my business! Don't do my business! Send what hospital, oh, yes! Don't you just want money, just give it to you, if you want to be Lei Feng, you can quickly take the money and go to register, I don't have time to spend here." ”

This time, before we could speak, the people next to us were all on fire, and the sound of unevenness was like thunder. "You're talking like that! You're still a reporter!", "Call the police, call the police!" ......

I guess it was this proposal to call the police that made him suddenly change his attitude, turn his head to the little boy, and squat down in front of him, whether it was true or not, anyway, he shushed a few words, trying to coax him into the car.

"Oops," the little boy's crisp voice made people feel distressed.

"Okay? If not, don't force it. Fei Fei immediately ran up to the boy, took a closer look at the child of her neighbor, and protected him with her hand.

"He's fine! He hasn't touched it, has he, kid?" The smile that squeezed out of that face must have been bitter, and it sounded more like a compulsion.

"If you touch him again, be careful that I beat you! People can't stand up, do you insist on helping him? You just hit him with your heart! What is the purpose?" As he spoke, Dai Junchen became anxious, and the pair of sword eyebrows stood up, and he was about to jump over with a step. I had suffered from his fists, but now that the other party is an adult after all, he will definitely suffer no matter what, so I hurried over to help him.

Just as the man was about to pull the little boy up, he was held down by the shoulder, and he looked up along the arm, and it turned out to be our most beloved police uncle. Thus, his farce came to an end.

Subsequently, the person confessed the violation of the rules and regulations, took out the reporter's fake signboard to exonerate the crime, ran the red light and went against the law, and could detain him for at least 10 days if he failed to correct his attitude and delayed the victim's treatment. At this time, the boy's parents also came, and our group went to the hospital first, and the doctor said that it was just a muscle strain, and the skin was broken, and it did not hinder the bones. After that, we politely declined the offer to go to the boy's house for dinner, and slipped away while they were not looking.

"Luckily, nothing happened, and it would have been terrible if I had been hit on the bone. "I'm really sweating for what just happened.

"Tell you not to believe it, I obviously looked at that car and hit him with the intention of hitting him, maybe it was a murder case!" Dai Junchen patted me on the shoulder and swore solemnly: "If you don't believe it, go and see what he looks like, how strange is it? By the way, aren't you neighbors with their family? What does his family do? Is there any ......?" Dai Junchen asked Fei Fei, not like they met for the first time, but like they were very familiar.

Fei Fei only laughed secretly, and didn't bother to pay attention to him. Although I thought his ideas were a bit wild, I did appreciate his outspoken character, so I touched Fei Fei's head and said, "I thought I could get your wallet back." Well, it's a good day, how about you go and eat KFC?"

"I please, I please! Look, how can you be embarrassed to let you break the bank? No, no. Dai Junchen put on a picture of an adult. Fei Fei is also a cold-hearted girl, an arrow to him and said: "I ......", I pulled her aside and said: "I lost my wallet......, what do you please?"

The three of us walked through one intersection after another with a smile and a smile in the golden sun, and it seemed that every street we passed had a cloud of hot air from us, white, like cotton candy.

At home, Yu Hui and Tianhao's chat continued. "So, your father?" Yu Hui pressed the rim of the cup to his lips and smoked his nose with heat.

"Well, I'm a philosopher, and my mother always says that he ignores the fields and reads some nonsense from the heavens and the earth. I still have a lot of these books in my house, some of them are read, and some of them are not at all scratching. Your room is so big, there should be a lot of books, can you exchange them? He glanced at the roof, the height seemed to make him uncomfortable, it must have been a magical feeling. Subsequently, Yu Hui took him to visit the room at home, and Tianhao did not sigh or envy. Except for a very normal lingering in front of the bookcase, the other furnishings were very calm to him, as if he had covered his eyes with a cloth, as if he hadn't seen it.

At four o'clock, I was back home. When I changed my shoes in the hallway, I saw the two sweet potatoes in the corner and knew that someone was coming.

"Yu Fan, look who's coming," Yu Hui said.

"Oh!" I replied.

Li Tianhao straightened up from the sofa, put down the magazine in his hand, and greeted me, "Hello Yufan." ”

I put down the shoes I had just changed and stood in the hallway stunned, looking at the figure who had not been planned. There were a thousand or ten thousand question marks in my heart, but I couldn't ask, and it took a long time to squeeze a sentence out of my throat: "Hello." ”

"I'm leaving. His smile, which could only be seen under a microscope, floated silently into the air. At this time, the wall clock on the wall seems to be lubricated, and the hands run fast, like an electric fan, which can blow a cool breeze. Yu Hui went downstairs to see him off, and I lay down on the couch and turned the TV back on. My favorite cosmic exploration show just ended, and I didn't like to listen to the music at the end, so I changed a few stations, and then I fell asleep unconsciously.
