"How many prints?"

"Three hundred first. ”

"So many, are you finished?"

"If you can't finish posting today, you can continue tomorrow, what else can you do?"

Dad paid, the printer was running, and the house smelled of graphite. It smells faint, but it's not annoying.

Su Ke licked her dry mouth until it cracked, she stared at the few goldfish that were constantly spinning in the fish tank, imagining that she was swimming in it, drinking as much water as she wanted, and she would never be thirsty for the rest of her life.

"How old is your girl?" the owner of the print shop quickly pulled a few stacks of paper from the printer and handed them over.

"Nine years old. ”

"Oh, that's pathetic. ”

As soon as she heard the word pity, Su Ke frowned, she patted the fish tank heavily, and the fish that was still swimming leisurely just now was frightened, and hit the glass wall of the fish tank in a panic, and the tail cut through the water surface and splashed the droplets on Su Ke's face.

I can't count the number of times this has been said to be pitiful. At first, she only felt very fresh, she didn't know where she was pitiful, and slowly listened to it more, those words were like the formulas taught by the math teacher in class, she couldn't understand it, and it was annoying.

"Let's go, stop playing!" Dad carried the printed missing person notice in his arms, and he walked to the door of the store and called her.

She stared at the fish with all her might, and dared to throw water in her face, she had to punish them!

The boss called her name hoarsely: "Su Ke, your father let you go!"

"Can this fish be eaten?" she put her hand into the fish tank, stirred back and forth, and touched a small black goldfish, sticky, quickly stretched out her hand, and put it on her nose, a fishy smell.

"You kid, what's wrong with you, your mother was skinned when she was there, and now she is skinned......"

"Let's go!" Dad's roar made the frightened boss tremble, he realized that he had said something wrong, and obediently shut up, he was thinking about when to change the water in the fish tank.

Su Ke jumped and chased after her, she sat in the back seat of the battery car, grabbed her father's wide clothes, and the sign of the copy shop behind her was getting farther and farther away.

At noon, the streets were deserted, except for the occasional pug wagging its tail as it rummaged through the garbage. The battery car whizzed past them, and several furry puppies chased after the car and barked and yelled.

"Come on, come on, slightly, you can't catch me!"

The little girl in the back of the car was teasing the dog with great interest, and she stood up and shouted, "Daddy, drive faster, drive faster!"

"Fall, sit down!"

"Dad, I said you should hurry up!

"The fastest!"

The battery car is speeding on the road, and the bucket with glue on the handlebar is dangling and creaking.

The sweltering summer wind was salty, and it was the smell of sweat.

"When will my mom come back?"

"She came back after posting. ”

"Really?"

"Of course, a gentleman can't chase a horse!"

Parked, the father and daughter took the newspaper and folded two hats like on TV, and put them on their heads in a decent manner. The huge brim of the hat covers the head, leaving a small shade.

Su Ke took out a piece of paper from the basket and looked at it carefully, she hadn't had time to see what was printed in it just now.

She read word by word, "Missing Person Notice...... Liu Yihua, female, 35 years old, 1.65 meters tall, ...... W city"

"Dad, what do you pronounce this word?"

"Reward, honorarium, it's the kind people who helped us find your mother, and we have to give people money to thank you. ”

"Oh. Then mom come back quickly, save the honorarium, and buy me something to eat!"

Dad scratched her nose, "Hurry up and post it, go home for dinner after sticking!"

On that day, the acquaintance who hid in the bushes seemed to be in order to meet the situation, and he screamed for a long time. Su Ke always remembered the sky that day, cloudless.

On the wall is an old missing person notice, the words on which have been turned off by the sun, the paper is crumpled, and the bottom date is May 10, 2007. Su Ke carefully recognized the words on the hot wall, no matter how close she was, she still couldn't string together a complete sentence, and she couldn't even know the name of the person she was looking for.

This was posted last year, and it's been like this after a year. I don't know who wants to find him, have you found it?

But at that time, no one told her that paper is fragile, and time is also fragile. As I walked, I found that the outline of the person I once cared about the most, the person I wanted to find the most, had been blurred by the years, and all the memories of that person had become dull.

No, it's not bland, it's just that the scars are hidden. And then in the place where there was no one, there was a little bit of pity that suddenly jumped out about the person's body, and the body was completely injured.

Su Ke pressed every missing person notice posted by her father with all her strength, and she was worried that the wind would blow them away. That was her only hope.

"Dad, will it get old, you see this one next to it, it's already so old, if it becomes like this, others can't see it, we won't be able to find Mom. ”

"No, your mom will be back in two days. ”

"Grandma said it's been half a year!"

This is the fifth time that a search notice has been posted, didn't it say that it would be two days? Why is two days so long? She hates the approximate number of 'two days' in the mouths of adults.

Dad posted the last one on the wall. Next to that, it was the missing person notice that Su Ke had just observed countless times and didn't know who he was looking for.

Su Ke stuck the four corners to death and asked again: "Then what if it is old and you can't find your mother?"

"That'...... We'll post it again. ”

She remembers this sentence and always reminds her father when to post a new one. She thought they would really do what his mom said before she came back: "Then we'll post it again." ”

Until one day, she realized that she didn't have to remind him anymore.

Next to him stood an unknown woman, who gave Su Ke a large bag of candy and wanted her to call her mother.

That was Su Ke's most willful age, of course she would not be obedient, crying and shouting for her father to find her mother.

"Why are you so selfish!"

He actually said that, and he also said that he couldn't wait for someone who couldn't wait for his whole life......

From elementary school to university, every time he passed by the streets where missing person notices were posted, Su Ke would get out of the car and look at the missing person notices left on the street, they were getting older and lighter each time. Eventually, they became as wrinkled and eroded as the unknown missing person poster.

Then, when she passed through those places, she didn't get out of the car, and glanced at it from afar, and the walls were clean and there was nothing.
